Chapter 35
I spent several trips collecting and carrying all the clay to the cave .
I decided to collect as much as I could because I spent so long collecting it I decided not to let it go to waste .
I am not in trouble even if i spend the day making pottery .
it’s free time anyway .I store all of the clay under the tree where I am drying meat .
Should I work here?
I kneed it for now and decide to make something like a kettle .
I mix water and clay to make it usable .
This actually needs alot of work .
If i was a human this would be easier to do .
It is very tiresome .more clay is mixed in as i go and the volume increases .
How many should I make?
maybe i could coat the cave walls with it .
Its being kneaded and the shape of a jar slowly forms .
I failed many many times .
with the arms and claws of a dragon i cant make anything beautiful
I don’t want frustration , but i do want the feeling of it being authentic .
While I did it over and over, the sun slowly set but i was stubborn and continued making the jars .
because of the battle with the bear I was tired but strangely i was not sleepy .
my eyelids were heavy but not interested in sleeping .
kneading it, breaking it, kneading it , breaking it .
eventually the sun began to rise .
After trial and error all though the night i managed to make a beautiful vase by making the sides and bottom separately and then attaching them .
It is perfect . absolutely perfect .
[ Title skill〖 pottery craftsman : Lv1 〗 was acquired ]
fu fu fu, dont phrase me so (TL:best i could MC trying to be modest . )
incidentally the red monkeys are watching me now .
probably the same as the previous group .
I returned the glare to them then they went away,
I wonder if they were aiming for the dried meat .
how many jars to i have?
I need around three, 1 each for spice salt and meat .
i may need more maybe ten?
I bore the sound of my stomach and continued to make pots earnestly .
every time I make one the next will be better .
This may be my vocation, messy fun .
I finished making ten and then . 〖 pottery craftsman : Lv1-Lv2 〗
After that i went up into the tree to eat my dried meat .
Super delicious . After all salt is important .
carnivorous flower is the best .
I felt eyes on me when I was eating, when I looked around i saww the orange monkeys .
I remember that these guys like the taste of the dried meat .
PEPPE! Go somewhere else!
When i glare at them they run away as fast as they could back into the forest .
When i have some time I should serve them some poison .
but then i will have to put that pot away and not make any food in it .
Should I have a regular cooking pot and a poison pot?
A spare is nessesary
I do five at a time because there is a chance they may break when baking .
when i finished making another pot〖pottery craftsmen〗became lv3
I might have been a potter in my previous life .
I am afraid of my own talent .
I collected firewood from the ground and filled the large kettle I made .
I opened a small hole and sent in a 〖baby breath〗to bake it .
the firewood is carbonized when i heat it in a sealed state .
I did this repeatedly until I had a mountain of charcoal . then i buried the pots and then blew〖baby breath〗to light it .
I didn’t know the temperature but strangely non have broken .
This may be the power of the clay bear .
I stop the 〖baby breath〗 when the pot turned white and then covered it in sand to extinguish the fire
when it cooled down, I dragged it out of a heap of charcoal and dropped soot and sand in a river .
umuumu, great workmanship .
I didn’t think it would go so well but it was splendid .
I came back inside the cave to fill more pots with the dried meat spice and salt .
I was very busy in the cave .
it’s a good feeling though .
there is still clay left I wonder what I should make with it .
maybe I could clean up the walls by making it into bricks .
for adhesion between the bricks clay hardened with baby breath should be enough .
it will quite lickely be a daunting task, but it will quite a good accomplishment .
In addition to that I might be suck in the cave for a few days .
there is plenty of food so maybe I can .
