The future is promising

"..."

"What a strange smell..."

He sniffed the smell of the black bread in his hand.

In a short period of time, [Fredos] couldn't tell whether it was a fragrance or a stink.

As a being who has lived in a humid environment since childhood and grew up eating all kinds of corpses.

His taste and smell systems have long been accustomed to the rotten stench and rotten flesh that ordinary people cannot accept.

bread?

Compared with rotten meat, ordinary people may feel more comfortable smelling this kind of thing.

But the smell produced by this kind of thing is very important to [Fredos].

On the contrary, it will make him feel a little uncomfortable.

Plus, it’s something I’ve never seen and heard of before.

When I think about it, I want to eat this thing.

[Fredos] also looked a little hesitant on his face, just like the first person to eat crab, he had no idea what would happen to him after eating it.

It wasn't until a while later that I repeatedly compared the information in my mind.

Only then did he muster up the courage in his heart. With the blessing of his faith, his heart suddenly trembled and he ate it in big mouthfuls!

That moment.

When his teeth came into contact with the hard outer layer of the bread.

A very clear sound was immediately made.

That was the sound of [Fredos]’s teeth almost being knocked out!

Fortunately.

Years of exercise have directly given him a good set of teeth.

Otherwise.

In the competition just now, he really couldn't bite the bread...

Then, something goes into the mouth.

The feeling that he was chewing wood powder immediately arose in his heart!

The texture and taste were completely different from the meat he had eaten in the past!

Said without politeness.

It was a weird feeling that he had never imagined.

He almost spit out the bread in his mouth! (PS: Don't expect that bread to be very delicious, no fat, no milk, made of pure whole grains... It is normal to beat people to a bloody head)

It can be said to be dry and hard to swallow!

Even [Fredos] who was used to eating carrion could not help but mutter:

"That's it?"

"Food made with magic tastes so bad??"

After the evaluation is completed.

Until he created a ball of water out of thin air and diluted the thing in his mouth with water, making it soft and relatively easy to swallow.

It was a bit difficult for him to swallow that big mouthful of bread...

Then, he opened his mouth, which still had a lot of bread crumbs left.

He also commented a little helplessly:

"This thing..."

"It's really a bit tiring..."

Until a while later.

He took several bites of bread one after another and chewed it slowly.

He then added:

"Hard, very hard..."

"It feels as hard as steel!"

"However, the taste is not bad, better than rotten meat surrounded by flies..."

"At the very least, there will be no accidental situation where if you bite this thing, it will be full of maggots..."

"It also has a strong feeling of satiety, which can make me hungry for a while."

"It's really a good food..."

"In case of emergency, I think it will be very edible..."

After that, [Fredos] used the spell several times again.

Multiple loaves were produced in succession.

It was distributed to other people who were starving.

What he didn't say was that this thing was very tooth-consuming.

He felt that eating this thing until full was a physical job.

so.

It’s better not to eat too much…

Regarding this, other slaves who had also never heard of or seen bread were a little unconvinced.

It wasn’t until they took their first bite and experienced the difficulty of food.

He couldn't help but show disgust on his face.

For them who have never eaten any kind of whole grains and basically feed on [meat] and [carrion].

This thing called bread is really a bit hard to swallow...

Many people.

This is the first time in my life that I have eaten vegetarian food...

For a while.

Some people who were not used to this feeling subconsciously glanced at their companions beside them.

There is no way, those guys are more or less mobile food...

But due to the existence of [Fredos] and other factors, after hesitating for a while.

Everyone present finally finished eating in silence.

Inside the black opaque shadow curtain, the team finishing work was completed relatively calmly.

Then, under the influence of [Road Guidance Technique], we headed all the way towards the marked south...

Stepping on the soft yellow sand, we began an unknown journey.

————

Until nearly three months later.

They finally made it after going through all kinds of hardships.

Successfully found those [Githyanki] who exist in the outside world...

only.

The other person's life was also miserable.

Even eating is a problem.

It's better than the scene of cannibalism in the dungeon.

It belongs to a state where serious people tighten their belts and live life...

So poor that I’m almost begging for food!

Although, there is no goal of begging.

Only the gate of the [Illithid Empire], the black factory where food, shelter, and the reproduction of future generations is open to them 24 hours a day.

Don't refuse anyone who comes.

The deepest part of the gathering place.
