Level Up Just By Eating - Chapter 96

Chapter 96

The harvest is over .

　We have harvested nearly 100 flowers filled inside the cart .

　Around 15 jellies can be made per milk flower .

　In other words, the number of jellies for this expedition is 1500 .

「Then, let’s ride Silver Dragon back home! I’ll give you special permission to ride!」

　Lindis exclaimed .

　We got on the back of the sea serpent .

　It was my first time, but it was surprisingly fluffy and soft .

　I give a good rub on the back .

　It has the meat quality of an eel, as I deduced .

「Feels like I can eat this . 」

「Kyuiiii!?」

　Silver Dragon quivered .

「What are you thinking!!」

「I just said it looks edible……」

「I-I-I-I’ll drop you off right this instance!!

　It’s true that Silver Dragon looks delicious, but I will not allow anyone to eat my friend!」

「So you do agree that it looks delicious!」

「I thought that lying wasn’t goodー……」

「Kyuiiii!」

　Silver Dragon protested as Lindis said .

「It’s so soft and fluffy!

　The back is very soft, and the mane is fluffy like a cloud…………Kuuuuuu…………」

(Yawn………。)

　Laura and Marine were falling asleep .

　She really has the same sleeping speed as Marine, and they’re obviously coming to my side to lean over .

　Can’t be helped .

　We went back to town by riding Silver Dragon .

「Now that I think about it, would it be okay to go there with this giant serpent?」

「It’ll be fine Keima-dono . We’re the Golden Plains where we have a dragon field . Although Serpents are rare, but it’s not like we can’t land . 」

「Is it . 」

「I’ll use a Wyvern when I want to carry my luggage in a hurry . 」

　According to Lolona’s instruction, we landed Silver Dragon on the dragon field .

　Since it was called a dragon field, several Wyverns were there .

　We returned to the inn to prepare for this .

　In particular, I have some ideas with the milk flowers .

「What are you doing Keima?」

「Well, various things . 」

「Whatever, I’m hungry! I want to eat!」

「You’re right……Should I make something . 」

「Yay! Keima love!」

　A week passes .

　I went to Lolona’s sister’s place .

「It’s been a while, how have you been?」

「Thanks to you, I’m fine . 」

「That’s good to hear . 」

　Lilina nodded lightly and looked at Lolona .

「I-I-I-I-I’m fine too, big sis!」

　Lolona’s attitude towards her sister sounds more like talking to a senpai than a family .

「You sound fine above all .

　And judging by you and your friends being here…………You’re here for business?」

　Truly a good deduction .

　We showed the milk jelly to Lilina .

「This is……Hmm . It has a nice sweetness and an exquisite thickness .

　If you roll it around your tongue, the rich scent tickles the nasal cavity, and moreover, it tastes great . 」

「I want to commercialize this . 」

「Hmm……」

「Is it bad? Why? I think it’s delicious! It’s a revolutionary snack that even the emperor will eat!

　You don’t want to fight an emperor right?」

　Another mysterious yet convincing story from Laura .

　Her head is fundamentally wrong .

　I handed a golden apple to Laura .

「Can I eat it?! Yay!」

　A simpleton as ever, as she starts eating .

「A new food product――It is a good product, but there are three essentials when introducing new products . Do you know what they are?」

　Before I could answer, Lindis shouted .

「It must taste delicious! People don’t eat bad food!」

「How about the other two?」

「The price! Even if the food is good, if there’s a price tag, I won’t eat it!

　I would rather eat roadside weed than paying a high quality 200 Balsie bread!」

　Femille, who has lived by with rain water and weed, really does have a fatal implication .

「The price is an important factor, but it’s not one of the essential……

　And first off, 200 Balsie for a bread is honestly on the cheaper side……」

「What are you saying! 200 Balsie is a months worth of my expenses……」

「200 Balsie is 2 cups of my coffee though?!」

「How do you live every month with money for 2 cups of coffee……?」

　Femille kneel down on the ground .

　Normally she has common sense, but when money is involved, she becomes a little bit like Laura .

　Can’t be helped .

　I raised my hand a little .

「Is it the safety and simple ingredients?

　Even if the taste is good, but if it’s dangerous then it won’t sell .

　And no matter how good the quality is, if you can’t get the ingredients then it can’t become a product . 」

「As expected . It is unfortunate that you’re an adventurer . 」

「For the safety of the food, I can guarantee it’s safety with my special ability .

　I have the ability to know whether a food is poisonous or not if I just eat it . 」

「Isn’t that too primitive!!!」

　Lilina suddenly shouts .

　Lilina probably thought I just tested for poison by using my own body .

　Which is true, but a normal person would die, not someone with poison resistance like me .

「We……Well, if you have already planned out so much, then I can trust you . Which leads to the last part, the ingredients .

　If you’re talking about Milk Flower, I do know about it as well .

　However, because it can only be harvested deep in the Sugar Forest, not many can be gathered outside of the forest .

　I tried cultivating on normal soil, but it didn’t work .

　How are you going to work around that?」

「With this . 」

　I took out a bottle .

　The bottle has the Milk Flower containing white milk

「This is……?」

「This cultivating method is called hydroponics . It doesn’t smell like soil because we don’t use soil .

　This flower was harvested a week ago . 」

「Hmm……」

　Lilina picked up the flower and dropped it inside her black tea, stirring it and drinking .

「With a natural flower taste, it gives the tea a more deeper sweetness . 」

「It’s like placing good quality sugar inside . 」

「But this was a week ago . How did the flower not rot at this point?」

「I applied purification magic . 」

　General hydroponics can’t be used as fertilizers, and if used will make the water rot . And MIlk is out of the question .

　But this is a fantasy world . Purification magic is such convenient magic .

　So we can just use it .

「I see, so you used purification magic……But is it possible to grow the flowers without soil……」

「I heard that the soil is being blessed by the earth spirit . So it’s okay to pull them away from the soil . ……」

「Keima-dono knows a lot about plants……」

　Lilina and Femille were impressed, while Lolona was dyed in red .

「We just have to make a bottle shaped like a long boat, then you can insert a bunch of blowers on top . 」

「Those miniscule works are our expertise .

　So how are you going to advertise it?」

「For example……」

　We talked about it for some time .

　For example, Shigeo Maruyama, who was assisting PlayStation developer Ken Kuragaraki, was also a person at Sony Music .

He handed out the PlayStation to hundreds of acquaintances, and asked them to play .

　Musicians who found it interesting to play said in their talk corner during a music program, “I’m playing a game like this . ”

　I omitted the word PlayStation and told Lilina only the main points .

「Giving influencers as a present is a form of publicity . 」

「I see……」

「And it’s better to let them think that it’s a good product rather than having them forcefully say it . 」

「Are there any other strategies?」

「Another example would be……」

　Psychology has something called the “Mere-exposure effect . ”

　The effect is that people tend to develop a preference for things merely because they are familiar with them

　This phenomenon is easy to understand in mangas and anime .

　For example, if I praise one of my acquaintances, it ends with “Oh, I see” .

However, when three or four people complimented, they became familiar as “a work whose names are often heard” .

　If you have a chance to see it often, you’ll usually respond with “Let’s take a look” .

「If you just mix in your conversation about the product, more people would be exposed to it, and a wider audience would hear your product . 」

「It’s obvious when you point it out .

　Truly a tremendous analytical ability . It’s like talking to a human psychologist expert . 」

　Well duh .

　Because it is from an expert psychologist .

　Knowledge is power!

　HAHAHA。
