Chapter 7: The Minotaurs’ Farms and the Oni-kin’s Alcohol

Thankfully, even with our sudden increase in population, there was more than enough food in the Forest to feed everyone. They could hunt monsters in the demon den next door, pick edible plants, mushrooms, fruit, and nuts around the Forest, fish in the rivers and ponds, raise cattle, get milk from the mythical beasts, and till fields for a more consistent and reliable source of food.

On that day, Morph, the representative of the minotaurs, came to find me at my mansion with a question. “Lady Witch, what should we produce?”

First and foremost, I had him take a seat. Minotaurs were massive and, I didn’t feel like straining my neck by trying to maintain eye contact the whole time.

“How about you guys just focus on growing crops?” I asked. Minotaurs prided themselves on their farming abilities, after all.

“Wheat, barley, legumes, carrots, potatoes, onions, bell peppers, eggplants, asparagus, pumpkins, cabbage, turnips, tomatoes, corn, broccoli... There are so many things you can grow! And that’s not even all of them,” Teto chirped.

“Miss Beretta has provided us with all sorts of seeds and saplings, and we have already started planting the essentials. We’ll plant the other ones when they’re in season,” Morph explained.

“Then what’s the problem?” I asked, slightly confused.

Morph was a man of few words; I waited patiently for him to articulate his thoughts.

“Thanks to you, we can finally live in peace. So we’d like to try out new things we’ve never done before,” he eventually said.

“Oooh, so that’s what it is.” I nodded.

The minotaurs finally had a place to call home, where they could till fields to their heart’s content. They were freer than ever and wanted to experiment.

I hummed pensively. “Then what about this? Creation!”

Using my magic, I materialized a certain cereal plant.

“Is that...wheat?” Morph asked, his curiosity piqued.

“Nope. It’s called ‘rice.’ It grows in paddy fields.”

“It’s all springy and delicious!” Teto added. “And you can make really yummy alcohol with it!”

I made most of the rice we ate with my Creation Magic, and the maids had started growing some in their free time, but not nearly enough to share with the others. As such, only Teto and I ever ate rice. However, I’d love for my people to eat more of it—it was a staple food from my previous life, after all. Morph seemed pretty interested.

“How do you eat it?” he asked.

“I can show you a few dishes made using rice. Ah, but it’s going to take me a little while to make all of them.”

“Teto will help you cook, Lady Witch!”

Morph started sputtering. “G-Grumph?! You’re going to make them yourself, Lady Witch?!”

“Yeah,” I shrugged. “I haven’t cooked in a hot minute; I was just starting to think I needed to shake off the rust.”

“Teto wants to eat curry and rice!”

I told Morph to head back home for the time being, and Teto and I put on aprons and headed to the kitchen. Well, just the two of us couldn’t make all of the dishes I wanted, so I decided to enlist the help of the maids on cooking duty today.
