Campfire Cooking In Another World With My Absurd Skill Volume 8

After conquering dungeons and finally getting some leverage over the gods ganging up on him, Mukohda sets his sights on the domestic life. With his new palatial manor fully staffed with trustworthy servants and guards, it seems like as good a time as any to focus on building up his long-neglected business of selling Japanese goods in this otherworld. But he’s suddenly found himself in the sights of an unscrupulous competitor, backed by a shady lesser noble, who is after the secrets of his luxurious soaps and hair treatments. Without relying on the brute strength of his overpowered familiars, Mukohda’s going to have to fight fire with fire and play politics himself. But in order to prove himself, he’ll need to provide something truly valuable to grease the wheels with Earl Langridge. What happens when otherworld magic and the marvels of modern product engineering collide...?

When we last left Mukohda and the gang, a pair of gods had just barged into Mukohda’s life, prepared to solve his troubles! It’s safe to say that they want something from him, but what is it, and what will they give in return? On the more mundane side of things, the earth dragon still lies unbutchered, something which has to happen as soon as possible in order to keep Fel from going catatonic, but how good can dragon really taste? Then, the final thing Mukohda and party wanted to do in Dolan was visit its famous dungeon, but what areas, vistas, and enemies await them? What treasures will they find, and how easy will it be for Mukohda to make his fortune inside? All this and more in volume 8!

Mukouda Tsuyoshi was nothing special in modern Japan, so when he was summoned to a world of swordplay and sorcery, he thought he was ready for the adventure of a lifetime. Too bad the kingdom that summoned him only got him by mistake! Not only was he not one of the three summoned heroes, but his stats were laughable compared to theirs. On top of that, there's something really sketchy about this kingdom... "Ah, these people are the kind to try and use the Hero," he realized, and immediately left to make his own way in this other world. The only thing Mukouda can rely on is his unique skill: the "Online Supermarket," a skill that allows him to buy modern goods in a fantasy world. It's useless for combat, but if he plays his cards right, he could lead a comfortable life, maybe? At least, that's what Mukouda thinks, but it turns out modern food bought with this skill has some absurd effects! What happens when Mukouda introduces ridiculously tasty modern cooking to a fantasy world like this? He gets some ridiculous repeat customers begging for more...!

Guided by the God of All Creation himself, Mukohda and his familiars have found their way into the treasure-filled lair of a long-dead bandit king. Stashed away among the piles of ill-begotten lucre is an item that catches Mukohda's attention: a magical tablet containing the autobiography of an ancient Sage, written in Japanese, of all things! What secrets could this mysterious book have to teach the other world's most cowardly chef? Who was the Sage, and how did he know Mukohda's native tongue? Will Mukohda manage to stay at home for more than a day before Fel and the others drag him off to another dungeon? And perhaps most importantly of all: What on earth is he supposed to do with the preposterous mountain of money that's been amassing in his Item Box all this time? Adventure awaits, whether Mukohda likes it or not!

When we last left Mukohda, an unfortunate salaryman who got accidentally summoned to another world from modern Japan, he had bought a house in Karelina and staffed it. Now, having finally put his house in order and having secured the safety of his business, Mukohda has found himself free enough to leave his home while he goes out adventuring! So, Mukohda and familiars are now in the town of Rosenthal in pursuit of meat, meat, more meat, and some violence for Fel and the others to let off a little steam. But what awaits Mukohda in the dungeon so famed for its meat drops it’s literally called the “meat dungeon”? Some new ingredients for a new type of cuisine? A new time-limited business venture? Maybe even a fateful meeting that may lead to an apprenticeship...?!

Having decided to flee from the kingdom that brought him to this otherworld, Mukohda and Fel continue their journey. Along the way, Mukohda quickly learns the ropes of having a familiar, and all the trouble that can entail.

At long last, the time has come. Mukohda and his party of ever-ravenous familiars are finally ready to set foot in the Brixt dungeon, a notorious hellhole famed for being the hardest dungeon in the land! The God of All Creation himself warned our hero of the unspeakable horrors waiting below that even his overpowered allies couldn’t take lightly. Much to Mukohda's chagrin, this warning was no deterrent at all. The Brixt dungeon may be full of dangerous monsters, devious traps, and glory-hungry adventurers who’d sooner see an upstart like Mukohda six feet under than split a share of their loot with him, but it also promises piles of treasure, oodles of rare ingredients, and EXP in abundance! And speaking of EXP, it’s only a matter of time before Mukohda unlocks his third Supermarket Tenant that the gods have been pestering him about for so long...

When we last left Mukohda and the gang, the town of Karelina was in danger of being attacked by a horde of wyverns, so naturally Fel volunteered them to solve this mess (for delicious meat, of course)! On the more peaceful side of events, one of the things Mukohda misses the most about his life in Japan is the bath culture. Will he ever get the chance to enjoy a proper bath in a tub again? And where will their journey take them to next?
