Fer, Sui and Dora-chan fell asleep after eating their fill.
As for me…
“Right, time to prepare some offerings for Demiurgos-sama. Let’s change things up a bit and include that as well.”
Although I had made offerings to Demiurgos-sama before, the snack offerings had all been premium canned goods.
Today’s dinner of Offal Hotpot or Motsunabe would match perfectly with alcohol. Therefore, I figured it would be a good idea to send Demiurgos-sama some hotpot to go with his favourite saké.
Today, I looked up the weekly ranking for saké ideas.
First bottle: Tochigi saké.
A Junmai Daiginjo slowly brewed over a low temperature.
It has a fruity aroma reminiscent of melons, a soft mouthfeel and a gentle sweetness. Recently, it has been so popular that supply could not keep up with demands, making it difficult to get hold of this saké.
Second bottle: Fukui Prefecture saké.
[9] Junmai Daiginjo aged at 0 ℃ for 2 years.
Long ageing under icy temperature is said to give the saké a grapefruit-like aroma. It is said to have won a gold medal for the third consecutive year at the US National Saké Appraisal [10].
By the way, saké from this series has been used for many government sponsored ceremonies and served to many important people from all around the world.
Third Bottle: Yamagata sake.
Ukiyo-e label dry Junmai Daiginjo [11].
This dry saké was completed after a three year trial in response to a request for dry saké in this series. [1] A dry saké with a refreshing and fruity aroma.
I chose this one for its very distinctive ukiyo-e label.
Now that I have the three bottles of saké along with the premium canned goods, [8] I placed them on the table with the freshly made offal hotpot (soy sauce based broth). After some thought, I also included a packet of Chinese egg noodles.
Right, this should be good enough.
I put my hands together and prayed, “O, Demiurgos-sama, please, accept these humble offerings.”
“Oh? Oh, thank you for taking the trouble to do this each time~ I was really looking forward to it.”
“Today’s offerings are the usual saké and canned goods. Additionally, I have made this offal hotpot, it should go well with the saké, please accept my humble offerings.”
“A hotpot! My, my, the God of Earth treated me to this once. It was delicious~ While eating the hotpot itself is interesting, I must say the final thing added to the leftover soup had the strongest impression on me.”
“This hotpot is likely to be different from the one Demiurgos-sama enjoyed before. However, I believe that Offal Hotpot is pretty good too. The final thing to be added to the leftover soup will be these Chinese noodles [5].”
“Hooh~~ I see, I see, I look forward to it.”
“It had just been cooked, so you may have it right now. Once you have eaten most of the ingredients, please stir in these Chinese noodles and let them simmer for a little while before eating.”
“My, my, I can eat it right away? You sure thought of everything, much appreciated. I shall have it with my saké now.”
A light glowed over the offerings and in a flash, they disappeared.
[6] I sighed and was about to leave for bed when Demiurgos-sama’s voice reverberated in my head again.
“Speaking of which, let me tell you now. The Kingdom of Reijseger [5] had been destroyed.”
“Eh? What?” fully awake now, I could only blink for a moment before saying, [8] “Was it defeated in a war against Malbert or something?”
“Umu, yes.” [7] There was a ‘crack’ of a bottle cap being twisted open followed by a soft glug of liquid. After a lip smacking ‘ah’, Demiurgos-sama continued, [4] “When Reijseger started the war against Malbert, the demon races from the north came down and joined in the war as well. Even so, Reijseger had an overwhelming number on their side consisting of enslaved poverty-stricken humans, elves and dwarves.”
[6] “Enslaved? That sounds terrible,”
[4] “Umu, it is similar to the slave bracelet used on one of the summoned individuals brought in. [5] The bracelet is capable of causing death to the people who rebelled against their masters. Unfortunately for Reijseger, many of the slave soldiers prefer to die rebelling than to fight and later be tortured again.”
[6] “Oh, wow, that’s…” I really don’t know what to say to that. I’m not sure if I have the guts to do anything like that.
“Anyway, the tide of war was summarily turned. The royal family, as well as nobles closely connected to the royalty, were all decapitated.”
[5] That pig king must have mistreated his slave soldiers really badly for them to choose death over fighting for their own lives…
“So, what will happen to Reijseger now? Will it be absorbed by Malbert?”
“Most likely, the people appeared to look forward to it. After all, while under the rule of Reijseger, they had been exploited in all sorts of ways. Even those who did not trust Malbert looked forward to some sort of change at least.”
[4] “I think it should be fine, Malbert is famous for being a relatively free country without racial discrimination like Leonhart.” [5]
“Speaking of which, I have some updates on those three people summoned with you into this world. They had a wedding ceremony at a church at Malbert Royal Capital.”
[6] “W-wait, marriage? Married to whom?! They are just teenagers for goodness sake!”
[8] “Hmm? They married each other, of course. All three are now married in the eyes of the law and the gods. Additionally, they also found an elixir in the dungeon and healed Rio’s arm.”
[6] “What do you mean they married each other? There are three of them!? They married each other as in the snotty boy has two girls-”
[8] “Ah, yes, they looked really happy too. It’s always good for people to be happy, no? Fuoh, fuoh, fuoh~”
“… …” Demiurgos-sama, what do you expect me to do with this information? Aren’t you just torturing me?!
Gununununu, curse all good looking guys!!!
How dare he marry two cute girls while I- I am all aloooonneeeee!!!
I’m so jealous.
I only have three familiars with me… while they are my important companions…
A girl, I want a girl companion!
Why did I transmigrate into a world with no hope of getting involved with a woman?!
Unfair! This is too unfair!
Those goddesses laughed at my love luck, but isn’t the difference between me and that boy too much!!??
Handsome guys should just explode!
All normies should explode!
Ughhh!!
I’m going to enjoy myself at tomorrow’s Dungeon Meat Festival.
That’s right, I’m going to enjoy life!
I went to bed hugging my beloved Sui-tan to heal my heart.

Gumihou will love to hear from you ~
ლ(´ڡ`ლ)
All normies should explode to a thousand pieces😂
I feel like the God of creation already told him all of this back when they first talked…and MC is reacting like he hadn’t heard any of it before -_-
He’s immune to abnormal status and disease.
Just saying, a brothel is an option.
Oooohhhh…
Ohhh!!!!
You’re definitely on to something~
He thought of that, but rejected the idea because sui is going to follow him and fer too if I remember
He could try looking for a lady who has the same passion as him. My parents got together because of cooking too, you know☺️
True~~
Also, I love how your parents got together~~
At this Rate, he will end as the Demon Lord that will rid the world of handsome normies while thinking that he cannot get a girlfriend. Like I am pretty sure if he asked anyone out, they will probably want to get to know him and get in a relationship, like he is dependable, rich, not ugly, a big dog, had saved some towns, even the nobles stay away from his business, more importantly, he knows how to cook and like to be clean, like what is not to like XD
Lol, like the Crimson Witch of the East?
The interesting thing is that he also has a huge lifespan so if he’s gonna meet someone it has to be a humanized dragon or something of that sort
Someone who loves food, definitely. Maybe an elf even.
Yeah, I figured the lifespan gift was due to his love of Elven women. He’s getting a little too pent-up tho
Honestly I’m trying to think of what character could be introduced at this point that could be Mukouda-san’s love interest, and I can’t think of anything plausible! Not to mention that she would have to have some game breaking trait to avoid an imbalanced relationship. It’s the solo life for us Mukouda-san T-T
Mukouda should be puffed up with some anger. Those other summoned people didn’t really try to defend him after the summoning. Mukouda was basically dismissed by those three as trash. As heroes, it should have been natural for them to think about how they could have kept Mukouda around, even as a non-hero aide or supporter. Thus, they could protect him as their powers grew. But instead, they didn’t care. In that sense, it was poetic justice for Reijseger Kingdom to try magical enslavement methods against the heroes.
Nuohhh! Nooo. Sui better not go down that worn-out path of the monster changing into a beautiful woman for the MC’s enjoyment. Well, Mukouda should talk to the elf MILF that he had the hots for, and offer to her and her friends some cooking course training in return for some elf cuisine training. He should be able to meet more elves this way, and maybe find an eligible lass. I’m mentioning elf because Mukouda has life extension.
Honestly, I actually don’t mind Sui becoming a humanoid female but as a child. So it’ll be like single dad (Mukoda) raising a child (Sui) which may increase his chances of finding a lady???? 👀
I just watched spy family so this scenario just pop in my head. It’s a really far fetched idea, considering his love luck 😅😂😂😂
Also, imagine Sui as Anya but with blue hair (same color as their slime form)???? 👀👀👀👀
Oh wow, poor Mukoda is getting greener than the nuclear stuff in video games. He really should start looking for some single ladies. Hopefully he won’t become an alcoholic due to being single and thirsty for too long 😀
Thanks for the second chapter this week! Awesome translation and editing as always! May God bless you!
Oh my gawd, he has access to loads of alcohol, sweets and all things addictive!!
I feel like Sui’s final form is gonna be a humanoid female lol
Considering Mukouda’s love luck?
Heh.
Thanks for the treat.
Wah went to bed hugging Sui Tan. I want it too
He was all puffed up with anger, lol. Poor thing.
