Solo Farming In The Tower
Chapter 5
Sejun’s hand tightly gripped the fish, which struggled and opened its mouth wide to attack Sejun, then clamped down hard.
Snap! Snap!
Sharp teeth clashed, making a sharp sound. Each time, Sejun held on tighter, fearing that if he lost his grip, he might lose a finger.
Sejun held the fish tightly and ran to the spot below the hole in the ceiling where the fire was. Meanwhile, the fish, which had been fiercely resisting, began to breathe faster, and its body went limp.
Upon reaching the fire, Sejun carefully laid down a single green onion leaf on the ground. He carefully placed the fish on the leaf and covered it with another green onion leaf.
And then
Swoosh.
He tore the green onion leaves to the thickness of a finger to use them as strings, wrapped the fish in two pieces of the torn leaves in a cross shape, and tied them together.
“I hope this tastes amazing.'”
Sejun carefully placed the fish wrapped in green onion leaves in the center of the fire pit.
And then
“······”
He waited.
He watched for a long time.
Sniff sniff.
“Ah, it smells great.”
The rich, oily scent melted into the rising steam and began to fill the cave.
He remembered his childhood. When his mother was preparing a meal, the smell of food would spread from the kitchen and take over the entire house.
When he came home after school and the smell filled the house, his mood would lift if it was one of his favorite side dishes. Back then, even the waiting time before eating was happy.
Gurgle.
A noise interrupted Sejun’s thoughts. He was hungry, but he held back. He was determined to fill his empty stomach with something delicious.
Gurgle.
“Hold on just a bit longer. I’ll put something really delicious in you.”
Sejun consoled his stomach and patiently waited. He waited for it to be completely cooked.
And when the scent became deeper and richer
“I can’t wait any longer! I can’t stand it!”
Sejun used the dried, hardened green onion leaves to remove the grilled fish wrapped in palm leaves from the fire.
He carefully untied the knot that held the green onion leaves together.
Whoosh.
When he untied the string and removed the green onion leaves, a dense aroma of fish mixed with the scent of green onion leaves spread.
“Wow!”
Sejun marveled at the sight of the moist, glistening fish.
Gulp.
Sejun folded the fish in half, tore off a piece of protruding flesh, and put it in his mouth.
“Um…!”
It was perfectly cooked. There was no fishy taste, and the chewy texture was felt as soon as he bit into it, with the savory flavor spreading in his mouth the more he chewed.
‘Amazing!!!’
Gobble gobble.
Sejun devoured the fish in a frenzy.
“Huh, I finished it already?!”
Sejun looked at the fish with only bones left and wore a crestfallen expression.
At that moment
Peep…
Peep…
A sound of disappointment came from the side. Sejun wasn’t the only one disappointed.
“Huh?”
Sejun looked at the source of the sound, and the rabbit couple was wearing a lost expression as they stared at the fish bones left.
‘No way?!’
No, it couldn’t be… rabbits eating fish!
But on second thought, the rabbit couple preferred to roast and eat the leaves like Sejun.
“Do you guys eat meat too?”
Sejun asked.
