On the other side of the window, there is a chorus of screams from the blue-tinged Akemi fans.
Everyone is scratching their faces, and it looking like a massive outbreak had occurred.
“No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!”
“How could Akemi-sama give that guy a ‘lucky kiss’?”
“There was a rumor that she kissed a trashy guy in the forest before, but I thought that was a lie!”
“I thought that was a lie! …… Stop it! Get away from Akemi-sama!”
Akemi is hugging me so tightly that I can’t pull away even if I wanted to.
No, normally I would have been able to get away from her if I wanted to, but …….
It is the sweetest feeling ever, and I can’t muster up the strength.
I feel as if my strength is being sucked out of me, or perhaps a new strength is being poured into me.
My cheeks are being groped, but I couldn’t tell what expression is on the faces of both me and her.
I look sideways in the mirror on the wall and see Akemi sucking on my cheek with a look of ecstasy on her face.
It is as if she is a queen spider sucking on her wrapped prey.
I am left to my own devices for a while, but eventually Akemi’s classmates rush into the workshop and manage to pull me off.
“I’m sorry, I was just a little distracted by the whole …… thing.”
Akemi puts on an indifferent face as she fixes her messy hair and uniform.
My cheeks are covered in hickeys, which I manage to remove with the help of a handkerchief.
“So, I’m going to go now.”
“Hmm, wait a minute, I need a favor.”
I ask with a hint of alarm. I ask back, “What is it?”
“You don’t have to be so defensive. I just need you to gather the materials needed for alchemy. Of course, I’ll return the favor.”
The “Whirlwind Voice Potion” that Akemi gave me was a great help.
I’m not reluctant to cooperate, because I might need it in the future.
“What do you need?”
“Hmm, well, ……. Right now I need black sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, yarrow’s petals, rotten orchid leaves, clam moss, burnet roots, griffon bird gizzards, goblin claws and leopin nails.”
“Okay. I’ll collect them when I’m out exploring the woods or something. …… What did you say at the end?”
Akemi does not change her expression, “What was it?”
“No, you said Leopin’s nails.Do you want my nails?”
“Ah, I thought you might give them to me if I mentioned them in passing. ……”
“Is it on the same level as goblins, my nails? What are you going to use them for?”
Akemi puts her index finger to her lips and winks at me in a lusty voice, “Na-i-sh-o.(Se-cret)”
I can’t help it, I’m losing my pace when I’m dealing with her.
I think to myself, “Oh well, I’ll see you later,” and turn to leave the store.
As I turn away, I don’t even notice Akemi sticking her tongue out at me like a naughty little devil,…….

There doesn’t seem to be anything else to do in the residential area, so I decide to head home.
On the way, I feel my body shining.

“…… pastry chef, huh~
I groan when I saw my new occupation.
A pastry chef is a very unrelated occupation in pioneering.
In the middle of pioneering, the first priority is to secure food to fill the stomach, rather than food for taste.
It can be said that the demand for confectioners increases at the end of the pioneering period, when people begin to have more time to live.
“I wish I was a cook at least.”
I mumble to myself as I return home.
Mark greets mse like he has been waiting for me to come home.
“Kuon! Kuon! Kuon!”
Mark holds out to me a jar of what must have been honey in it.
“What is it? Did you get a lot of honey again? Are you going to share it with me?”
“Kuon!”
==========
Honey
Quantity 1000
Quality level 6 (Material level 6)
Honey from the hive of a bee.
It is very sweet and can be used as food or medicine.
==========
There is a golden liquid inside the jar, and it is thick.
I put my finger into it and take a lick. ……
The sweetness fills my mouth as if my teeth are on fire.
“Oh, ……, that’s sweet! I haven’t eaten anything sweet in a long time, and it tastes so good! Thanks, Mark!”
As I am patting Mark’s belly, Tom, who is standing beside me with a pouting face, stands up.
He turns away and disappears into the forest, but comes back a few moments later with a bunch of flowers and grass in his mouth.
It is a plant with a small flower and a pod-like fruit.
Tom drops it at my feet with a smug look on his face.
==========
Black Sesame
Quantity 30
Quality Level 2 (Material Level 2)
Wild black sesame seeds.
Seeds can be used for food and oil.
==========
“Whoa! That’s Black Sesame! Where did you find them? Akemi just asked me to get it for her!”
Tom immediately lays down and wiggles as if to say, “Pet me.”
As soon as I started getting pets, I was worried about their food …….
“I didn’t expect them to give me food. ……! Great job, guys!”
