Day 391-400/Day 398

Day 398
In the end, the sand storm did not stop until the night was already over, so today I decided to wander outside starting from the morning.
I did not go alone, everyone else was walking with me while looking around the main avenue with the morning's traffic.
When the sky was clear, I bought food at several street stalls and tasted some of the most delicious food from a stall so far.
It seems that the stall dishes were special favorites of Auro and Argento, and their faces shone brilliantly like glitter.
I wanted Oniwaka and Opushii to enjoy it too, so I bought for each of them.
It is impressive that only Nicola, a young human child, can not eat yet, so it looked like she had a rotten face.
I gave her a glittering toy and I kept her in a good mood.
Personally, my favorite of the stall dishes are the spicy stuffed meat dishes, especially the shops that have their own cups and pour sake.
Sake to drink and meat to eat, in the morning these are good things.
As you can when freely sightseeing, «Orzi · Manu · Deunas» has been formed out of rocks and cloths that look thick. It seems that houses are built with materials like 'Adobe', a natural building material made of sand, straw, clay etc. lined up.
I do not see enough to tell whether wood is valuable or not, it would just be another brown color among the other colors of building materials.
However, while tastefully sampling the stall dishes, a sophisticated technique was overheard when talking about the building of houses.
It is not just having a strikingly fun style, such as when shaping the roof or the decoration of windows, but it can be said that the creative ingenuity or artistic delicacy is brought out.
The effect this has had on the temple is obvious at first sight.
Unlike in other places, where colorful building materials are not frequently used, their abundance here marked it as a special building at a glance.
Along the inner wall's surface there were pictures drawn with tiles of various colors demonic enough to make sighs leak out unexpectedly, I thought that I should look them over at least once.
Besides, because water sources are abundant, plants are more visible here than in other areas, keeping the temperatures from getting too high, which makes it easy to spend the day relaxing.
The air does not get too dry, the economy is stable and security is good, with the living environment the best we have seen in the New World, how has not developed more?
Looking at some of the armor shops, there are also quite a few businesses open.
There are also many interesting forms of weapons such as the sharp Shamseal and Jamahadar, along with some other characteristic things that can not be seen anywhere else.
It seems that the magic items produced in the nearby [Kamiyo Dungeon] also seems to be available, so I thought that goods of better quality were arranged than the price.
There were many sightseeing spots, enough that we could not see them all in one day, but I knew that there were this many places to see.
From now on, it will be necessary to think about seeing various places based on its location.
In the evening we return to the inn and order spicy curry with other dishes.
It was a piece that has been carried around for a while, so the dragon meat that I handed over was used immediately, stepping deeper into the abyss of taste.
A rich fragrance drifted out. There were dozens of spices mixed together with a delicate technique making it coalesce in a chaotic was that destroyed the appetite just with its smell.
It is a fragrant bomb, with the surrounding gazes focused on one point.
The waiter carrying it somehow managed to pretend to be calm, but could not hide the desire in that eye.
All eyes are nailed to the spicy curry with a wide-eyed goro-goro look, but the dragon meat disappears into our mouths.
As other tables have tried the ordinary spicy curry, we are probably the first ones to try a new curry.
It is placed on our table with an overwhelming presence. I heard a sound like gulping from somewhere.
When I looked at the surroundings there was the chef who cooked the spicy curry, in the direction of the kitchen. There was a kind of serious spirit in that the eye, and he did his best to focus on our reaction.
While I was paying attention to the surroundings, I was the one who was supposed to eat first.
Kanami-chan and the others are waiting for me to try the dish first.
I feel sorry for taking up so much time, I kept thinking about other things, but such thoughts quickly disappeared.
The dragon meat unraveled in my mouth. The taste of the spices it soaked in softly disappeared in the mouth.
A complex and delicate taste raised the dragon meat's merit to the utmost, further increasing the effect due to the synergistic effect with my spicy curry.
Unfortunately it is impossible to express in detail with my limited vocabulary, so I acted on this taste and responded.
Seconds please.
Of course, send over every pot and everything involved.
A little war broke out triggered by that, but there was no way to get more of it.

“三百九十八日目”
　結局夜まで降っていた砂雨が止んだので、今日は朝から外をぶらつく事にした。
　ゾロゾロと皆で午前中は人通りの多い大通りを中心に見て回る。
　小腹が空くと立ち並ぶ露店などで買い食いし、そこそこ美味しい屋台料理を味わった。
　屋台料理は特にオーロとアルジェントが気に入ったらしく、キラキラと顔を輝かせて強請ってくる。
　鬼若やオプシーも欲しそうにしていたので、その都度買っていった。
　幼い人間のニコラだけはまだ食べられないので、ブスッとふて腐れたような顔をしていたのは印象的である。
　キラキラと光る玩具を与えると機嫌が直ったのでよしとしておこう。
　屋台料理の中ではスパイスの効いた串肉料理が個人的には当たりで、自前のコップを持ち込んで地酒を注いでくれる店は特にお気に入りだ。
　朝から飲む酒と肉は良いモノだ。
　など自由に観光して分かったが、≪オルジ・マヌ・ディウナス≫では成形された岩や、分厚く頑丈そうな布。あるいは砂や藁や粘土などで作られる天然建材“アドベ”のような建材で構築された家屋が並んでいるらしい。
　木材は貴重品なのかあまり見かけず、建材の色的に茶色い街並みだ。
　ただ色合い的には地味ながら、家屋の造形には洗練された技術が伺えた。
　屋根の形や窓の装飾など、ただのぺっとした面白みのない造りではなく、創意工夫というか、芸術的な繊細さが窺えるのだ。
　特に神殿などは力が入っている。
　他ではあまり使われていないような色付きの建材も多用され、一目で特別な建築物である事が分かるように主張していた。
　内部の壁面に様々な色のタイルで描かれた絵は思わず溜息を漏らすほど魔的ですらあり、一度は見ておくべきだと正直思った。
　それに水資源が豊富なので植物が他より多く見られ、気温も暑すぎないので過ごしやすい。
　空気は乾燥しすぎず、経済も安定しているし治安も良い。生活環境としては新大陸で最も良い条件が揃っているのでこれほど発展してこれたのではないだろうか。
　幾つかの武具屋を覗いてみると、結構な業物も多い。
　切れ味鋭いシャムシールやジャマハダルなど面白い形の武器も多いし、他では見られない特徴的な物もある。
　近場の【神代ダンジョン】から産出されたマジックアイテムも揃っているようで、値段より良い質の商品が揃えられているように思った。
　観光名所は多く、一日で見て回る事は出来なかったが、知れた事は多くある。
　今後はそれを元に色々と考えなければならないだろう。
　夜は宿に帰り、ジャンカリーとその他の料理を注文する。
　しばし後に運ばれてきた、渡した竜肉が早速使われたそれは、更なる味の深淵へ踏み込んでいる一品だった。
　漂う豊潤な香り。数十種類のスパイスを繊細極まる手技によって混ぜ合わせ、混沌としながらも合一させたそれは、匂いだけで食欲を殴り飛ばす衝撃があった。
　まさに香りの爆弾で、周囲の視線が一点に向けられる。
　それを運んでくるウェイターは何とか平静を装っていたが、その眼に宿る欲望までは隠せない。
　その眼はゴロッと大きな、だけど口の中で蕩けて消えてしまう竜肉が入ったジャンカリーに釘付けだ。
　他のテーブルは普通のジャンカリーなので、おそらくこの新しいジャンカリーは俺達が最初なのだろう。
　テーブルに置かれたそれは、圧倒的な存在感を放っている。ゴクリ、という音がどこかから聞こえてきた。
　ふと周囲を見回せば厨房のある方向にジャンカリーを作った料理長が居た。その眼は真剣そのもので、全力を尽くしました、というような気迫があった。
　周囲に注目される中、まず口にしたのは俺だった。
　カナ美ちゃんなどはジッと俺が食べるのを待っている。
　何だか申し訳ない、そんな思いも抱いたが、そんな考えは即座に消し飛んだ。
　
　口の中でほどけた竜肉。口の中で消えていく柔らかいそれに染みこんだスパイスの味。
　複雑で繊細な味わいは竜肉の良さを最大限に引き上げ、ジャンカリーのルーとの相乗効果で更に旨さを増していた。
　残念ながら俺の少ない語彙では詳細に表現する事が不可能なので、俺はこの味に対して行動にして応えた。
　おかわり下さい。
　もちろん、鍋ごと全部で。
　それを引き金にしてちょっとした戦争が勃発したが、致し方あるまい。
