At the field, there were big tomatoes and cherry tomatoes. Most of them were red as well.

Recently at the supermarket, you can do an all-you-can-stuff with a variety of cherry tomatoes which was getting popular, but in this field, there wasn’t as big of a variety of tomatoes. Wait, of course there wasn’t much variety. There are other vegetables growing here too. If every variety of tomato grew here, just how much of the field would they use?

……Huh? If this mysterious space, this mysterious field above the dungeon can grow all sorts of vegetables regardless of season, then what about the other dungeons?

Is there a mysterious field like this at the MP potion field too? If so, are there different types of vegetables growing there?

Uwah, now I’m curious.

Oh, oops. I have to think about what to do for breakfast.

Tomatoes, and…

What are these leaves? They look kind of like shiso leaves.

I picked off a leaf and smelled it.

If it’s shiso, I’ll know right away by smelling it.

*sniff sniff*

「Ah! So it’s that!」

I see, I see.

It was the first time I saw it fresh since I’ve never seen them sold fresh at the supermarket.

You might find them sold fresh if you went to a high-class store, but the supermarket I always went to was for commoners.

Um, in other words, I’ve never used this ingredient in its raw form. Will it be okay?

It looks just like shiso, so if I prepare it, I should be able to use it, right?

*sniff, sniff*

I smelled it once more.

Yup, it smells just like that.

Umm, so tomatoes and octopus.

*sniff, sniff*

Ahh, I want Italian food!

That’s right, if I remember correctly, I’ve heard from somewhere that the only countries who ate octopus were Japan and Italy.

Things are different now, though. Anyway, the countries that have a long history of eating octopus are Japan and Italy. In other words, Italian food should be compatible with octopus…

Vinegared octopus sounds good too, but now I want to eat dishes like octopus carpaccio!

……But that’s the thing. I don’t have olive oil. I want cheese too.

Sigh…

I can’t wish for such luxuries now. Let’s make food with whatever we have.

I don’t have olive oil, but I do have that.

Well, okay. I should be able to make something good.

I picked up the vegetables when suddenly, *woosh*. I saw something move.

Gyah!

What was that?

I closed my eyes for a moment, but quickly opened them.
