  1. Vandalieu dried kombu in the clear winter air and weak sunlight with the reborn girl.
  2.  
  3. 「Now then, I’ll begin the experiment.」(Vandalieu)
  4.  
  5. 「Ai.」(Baby)
  6.  
  7. He slowly applied【Withering】on the kombu to remove its water content while also slowly applying【Aging.】
  8.  
  9. If he made a mistake it would dry out too much and fall apart, and if he took too long, it would turn into powder, so he needed to be very careful.
  10.  
  11. He continued controlling his spells for just a minute while enduring a headache and fever. It turned out perfect, so he stopped his spells and retrieved the dried kombu.
  12.  
  13. 「Now then, time to actually taste it.」(Vandalieu)
  14.  
  15. 「Ai.」(Baby)
  16.  
  17. He threw the kombu into a pot on a magical stove he had found in the ruins and turned the stove on.
  18.  
  19. Dashi began to come out steadily.
  20.  
  21. He removed the kombu when enough dashi had come out before the water started to boil and scooped some out with a ladle that the blacksmith Datara had made for him. He placed it onto a small plate, cooled it and tasted it.
  22.  
  23. 「Mhmm, that’s good dashi.」(Vandalieu)
  24. Satisfied, he added ingredients like wakame and vegetables and then dissolved miso in it to make miso soup.
  25.  
  26. 「It’s turned out well.」(Vandalieu)
  27.  
  28. 「Uu, uu.」(Baby)
  29.  
  30. 「I think it’s a little too early for you to be drinking miso soup, Pauvina.」(Vandalieu)
  31.  
  32. 「Au…」(Pauvina)
  33.  
  34. Pauvina… the Live-Dead who had been reborn as a half-Noble Orc seemed dejected, so Vandalieu comforted her as he felt satisfied at having successfully made kombu dashi.
  35.  
  36. Applying the【Aging】spell that was originally intended to age living things to kill them through old age to the kombu and drying it, he was able to apply twenty-five years’ worth of drying in a single minute to produce high-quality dried kombu. It was a groundbreaking discovery.
  37.  
  38. It was a process that shortened a twenty-five-year-long process to one minute. Incidentally, the reason it was twenty-five years was because Vandalieu remembered that kombu that had been dried and fermented for that long had been treated as a much higher-quality product than normal kombu on Earth. If he recalled, it was because the process changed the umami content in the kombu.
  39.  
  40. He had no spell that could confirm whether the umami content had really increased and Vandalieu had never tried miso soup made from high-quality kombu dashi, so there was no denying the possibility that Vandalieu was just making an assumption here.
