Sorting Recipes

After successfully killing Inferno Bear. The first thing Cien did was tuck its huge body inside the barrier. With great difficulty, Cien pushed the huge body of a bear that probably weighed more than a ton.

In the past, polar bears and brown bears could weigh up to 600 kilos. And the size of the Inferno Bear he killed could be said to be more than three times the body size of a polar bear. Therefore, the weight of the body he pushed may be more than two tons.

It's just that, his stamina and energy are almost exhausted just to push the bear twenty meters away. Considering that the distance to his shop was five hundred meters, Cien immediately abandoned his plan to take the completely intact body to his residence.

"There's no other way. It has to be cut in pieces."

The first thing Cien did was skin the Inferno Bear. Whether in the previous world or here, bear skins were extremely valuable. Moreover, Inferno Bear, a Rank 6 monster, its skin can be a valuable material.

Cien then studied the boulder-like stump shoulders of the bear.

'Is this thing forgeable?'

Cien wasn't so sure, he'd know when he tried it. Cien actually wanted to remove the blood from the bear's body first, to maintain the taste of the meat. But sadly, he didn't have the strength to hang that huge body.

Wanting to cut and hang it right away without skinning it first will reduce the value of the fur. In the end Cien could only sigh softly and skin the bear as fast as he could.

Fortunately, no matter how thick and tough the Inferno Bear's body was, the kitchen knife could easily cut it. He didn't even feel the slightest resistance as he skinned that rock-hard shoulder.

When finished, Cien was amazed by the kitchen knife in his hand.

'What kind of knife is this? This thing is too sharp!'

Cien then recalled the function of his cell phone's camera. He immediately took and photographed the knife in his hand. Sure enough, there are detailed options in the photo.

__________

[Kirana Shop Knife]

Kitchen knife given to Kirana Shop owner. The blade is made of white diamond with a sharpness level that can cut any material up to Rank 8.

Note: The sharpness of the blade will decrease drastically if the target is not some kind of material or ingredients in the owner's view.

__________

"..."

Scary. That was all Cien could think of when he read the description of his kitchen knife.

He didn't think that a mere kitchen knife could possibly surpass the rare and legendary weapons out there. Bypassing Rank 8? It was really scary, but Cien had no intention of meeting such a powerful monster.

His gaze then focused on the note in the description.

'Materials from the owner's view?'

Cien vaguely understood what the note meant. His gaze turned to the sack containing weeds. He then slashed at the sack with the knife in his hand, but as he expected, the sack was not even cut or scratched.

He held the sack closer, then tried to swipe the blade up close. As if the sharpness just now was an illusion, the blade didn't cut anything at all. The knife had become so dull, Cien even felt that even the metal ruler might still be sharper than the knife's current condition.

'Only things that I think of as materials can be cut. That means, this knife probably won't do any good if it's used to injure other humans.'

As if to prove his point, Cien without hesitation slashed his left arm. As a result, the knife is completely dull. To him the feeling of the slashing of the knife was almost the same as someone rubbing a pen against his skin.

Cien now understood the knife he had. He could only smile and accept.

For the next several hours, Cien sliced ​​Inferno Bear's body into several small pieces. He hung the body parts he had cut off from the tree branches around him. The rope for hanging, Cien took from some weeds and hanging roots he found in the forest.

For internal organs, eyes, claws, teeth, and so on. Cien was forced to store it first on the ground which was covered with weeds. He didn't waste a single organ from the Inferno Bear at all.

Cien didn't know what to do with each of the materials yet, so he planned to store them in the storage room first. Then look for recipes on the cellphone related to Inferno Bear.

If later there is something that is not in the recipe, then he will throw it away.

Until late afternoon, Cien went back and forth moving all the materials to his shop. After everything was finished and stored neatly by him in the storage room, then Cien could breathe a sigh of relief and relax his body.

He was lying in the hallway in front of the door to the storage room. His energy had run out, he wanted to immediately clean himself up and then sleep but the feeling of laziness and tiredness immediately overtook him.

Not to mention, he had only just eaten the wild grasses and berries he saw on the way. So now his stomach really needs excess intake.

In weakness, Cien slept on the floor. He slept for the next three hours. When he woke up, the sky had darkened, and the mana lamp had turned on by itself.

The lights in the shop are lights that use mana stone resources. One mana stone measuring five inches can turn on the lights for up to one week. As for the shop, Cien found that he had at least fifty mana stones sitting in the storage room.

If all the mana lamps were turned on, that amount would only last around four months, but if it was only used for one or two rooms, the current amount would be enough to illuminate his room until the next year.

Cien got up, then walked up to the second floor. He went into the bathroom and cleaned himself up.

After taking a shower, Cien walked to the cupboard in his bedroom. Earlier when he woke up, while he was looking for new sheets, he also found two sets of clothes.

He intended to change his clothes. As his current clothes, which are already tattered, he will wash it and maybe wear it again later.

He didn't change his clothes before leaving because he felt it was a shame to wear new clothes to go out.

But now, the ugly clothes he had been wearing had been splattered with blood from the Inferno Bear. He had no other choice but to change it. And again, Cien doesn't want to dirty his new sheets and add to the laundry.

Done with putting on new clothes, which he could say looked normal. Only a shirt and pants that are brown colored. In the previous world, Cien felt that these clothes were the clothes that the villagers usually wore in fantasy RPGs.

Cien then went downstairs, back to the storage room. Take a piece of meat and start cooking in the kitchen for dinner.

That night, he finally tasted the taste of meat again that his tongue had not tasted for a long time. Cien even burst into tears when he chewed the meat in his mouth. Even without the addition of seasonings or spices, the taste of pure meat really moved him.

'Delicious… oh, delicious… sob, the blessing of life is indeed a delicious food, sob…'

That night, Cien slept very soundly dreaming of himself eating various meat dishes from his old world.

The next morning, when Cien woke up. With great enthusiasm he immediately made grilled meat for breakfast, but this time he also added some weeds he got yesterday.

While waiting for the meat to be cooked, Cien took out his cellphone and looked at the details of the various plants that had been his food. Burdock, Petiolata, Purslane, Cloudberry, Nettle and Sweet Gale. The six types of plants he picked most often, and all of them were completely edible.

"Sigh…"

Cien breathed a sigh of relief, even though he's been eating wild plants for ten years now. There is still a distinct fear that the plant could have a negative impact. After knowing all kinds of plants and no negative effects, he ate his breakfast in peace.

It was after breakfast that Cien thought about all the materials he got yesterday, including the five Mana Cores he got from the application.

First, Cien starts by sorting all the recipes in the application, looking at all the recipes that require the ingredients he has in it.

Luckily, his cell phone has a sort function that's easy to do. So he only needed to type 'Inferno Bear' and dozens of recipes appeared on the screen. Various recipes from clothes, potions to weapons are there.

Cien caught a glimpse of one recipe which was the 'Inferno Coat' which used Inferno Bear skin as the main ingredient.

'Hmm…'

Cien thought while holding his chin. From the ingredients in just that one recipe, Cien was already starting to get dizzy because he only had some of the ingredients needed. And probably all the recipes out there do the same.

Cien then moved to the workhouse on the basement floor. When he was looking at the shop floor plan on his cell phone, it turned out that he could see every cupboard and drawer in the room. Therefore, he went to the workhouse, went straight to a drawer, and there he found a pile of papers.

Cien took some sheets of paper and sat on one of the desk chairs. Cien wrote down the names of all the ingredients and the quantity of each ingredient he currently had.

When finished he pasted all the paper containing the material on the wall in front of the table, and started looking back at the recipe on the cell phone.

Cien started compiling each recipe one by one from the recipe that was most likely to be made with the current availability of materials to recipes that were impossible to do at all.

It took all day before Cien finally finished sorting everything out. Of course, every meal time came, he would immediately eat. Meat! No matter how busy he is, getting his meat on time is still his priority.

Evening, around eight o'clock. Cien leaned back in his chair in the workhouse. In his hands was a sheet of paper containing a recipe that he could very well do at this time.

"Fire Glove," Cien muttered with a small smile on his face.
