Chapter 282 Setsuna’s Thoughts, Wanting to Become Stronger!
After stirring for a while longer.
Under the astonished gazes of the Beast-eared Girls and Winged Girls.
The reddish-brown brown sugar water in the pottery pot turned clear and transparent.
Seeing that there was no red color left, Lin Ye’s face revealed a satisfied smile.
He took out the chopsticks and began to wait for the water in the pottery pot to settle naturally.
Many small fragments of charcoal were currently floating in the water.
While waiting for the sugar water to settle, Lin Ye poured a little water into another pottery pot.
Then he inverted a pottery bowl into it.
The water level was exactly the same as the inverted pottery bowl.
He then placed this pottery pot on the stove and began to heat it.
Although the Beast-eared Girls and Winged Girls did not understand what each of Lin Ye’s steps represented.
This did not affect the Beast-eared Girls and Winged Girls’ full expectation for the white sugar to appear.
When the water in the pottery pot on the stove was about to boil.
The sugar water had also completely settled.
Lin Ye carefully poured a bowl of clear sugar water from the pottery pot into another pottery bowl.
Then he placed this pottery bowl into the pottery pot on the stove.
He placed the pottery bowl at the bottom of the inverted pottery bowl in the pot.
After carefully placing it, Lin Ye covered the pot lid and nodded with satisfaction, a smile appearing on his face.
Seeing Lin Ye’s smile, the Beast-eared Girls and Winged Girls looked at the pottery pot on the stove with even more anticipation.
Sakura came to Lin Ye’s side, blinked, and said to him, “Ye, will we be able to make delicious white sugar like this later?”
After Sakura finished asking, the other Beast-eared Girls and Winged Girls also looked over with expectant faces.
Lin Ye smiled and patted Sakura’s head, looking at the appearance of the other Beast-eared Girls and Winged Girls.
He shook his head and said.
“This can’t directly make white sugar yet, but it’s almost there. As long as it’s taken out of the pot and dried, you’ll get white sugar.” When the Beast-eared Girls and Winged Girls saw Lin Ye shake his head.
Their little faces instantly drooped.
But after hearing Lin Ye’s next words.
The expressions of the Beast-eared Girls and Winged Girls immediately turned from gloomy to sunny, and they all grinned.
Then, one by one, they quietly watched the pottery pot.
After a while, Lin Ye felt it was about time and opened the pot lid.
As the pot lid opened, steam billowed out.
After sweeping away the swirling steam with his hand, Lin Ye looked at the pottery bowl in the pottery pot.
He saw that the originally full bowl of sugar water now had less than a third left.
He took out the pottery bowl, using a few leaves as a base.
Lin Ye shook the pottery bowl.
He found that the remaining one-fifth was no longer water.
When he shook the pottery bowl, the liquid inside did not flow like water.
Instead, it trembled slowly twice.
Lin Ye knew that most of the moisture in the sugar water had been evaporated. Now, all that was left in the bowl was syrup.
Next, all that was needed was to wait for the syrup to cool and crystallize into white sugar.
Seeing Lin Ye take out the pottery bowl, the Beast-eared Girls and Winged Girls.
They all gathered around curiously.
Seeing that the originally full bowl of sugar water was now just a small amount at the bottom of the bowl.
They all stared at it with wide eyes.
At this moment, Sakura swallowed her drool and extended a finger, wanting to dip a little to taste.
But Lin Ye noticed and slapped her hand away.
After Sakura was caught trying to sneak a taste, she looked at Lin Ye with a carefree, giggling expression.
Lin Ye looked at Sakura’s appearance, playfully ruffled her hair, and said, “You can’t eat it yet. You have to wait until it dries, and then it will become white sugar.” Hearing Lin Ye’s words, Sakura squinted and wagged her tail, nodding.
Lin Ye then turned to the other Beast-eared Girls and Winged Girls and said, “Alright, it looks like we won’t be eating white sugar today. Go wait somewhere else.” The Beast-eared Girls and Winged Girls had been following Lin Ye’s butt all day.
They hadn’t done anything else.
Except for Sakura, Diona, Setsuna, and Ling who ran off to play for a while out of boredom, and Sakura also went to the vegetable garden to use her talent abilities a few times.
Most of the other Beast-eared Girls and Winged Girls had basically been following Lin Ye.
When the Beast-eared Girls and Winged Girls heard Lin Ye’s words.
They all pouted in disappointment.
But when they remembered that Lin Ye said they could eat delicious white sugar tomorrow.
One by one, they became happy and started to smile.
After the Beast-eared Girls and Winged Girls left, Lin Ye repeated the process of steaming all the sugar water from the pottery pots and placing them aside to dry.
In the end, some sugar water remained in the pottery pot.
However, because the activated carbon was already in it, it could not be poured out.
Looking at the dwindling amount of sugar water, Lin Ye could not figure out how to get it all out.
Lin Ye did not have a fine enough filtration device on hand.
But looking at the several pottery bowls drying on the side, Lin Ye was already very satisfied.
In a primitive society, it was naturally impossible for everything to be perfect.
Lin Ye felt that as long as the Beast-eared Girls and Winged Girls did not suffer accidental deaths.
Lin Ye could accept everything else.
Even if they were injured, Lin Ye could use healing spells to save them.
By the time Lin Ye finished steaming all the sugar water.
The sun had already set.
He placed the pottery bowls on a large stone, arranged them, and sprinkled a circle of grass ash around them to prevent ants from crawling into the bowls at night.
After everything was done, Lin Ye walked towards the open space.
The Beast-eared Girls and Winged Girls were already sitting in the open space, waiting for dinner.
Shi and a few Beast-eared Girls were busy preparing dinner.
Seeing Lin Ye walk over, the Beast-eared Girls and Winged Girls all smiled at him.
He came to their side and sat down.
Sakura and Diona ran over with smiles, burying themselves in Lin Ye’s arms.
Lin Ye looked at the two cat-eared little girls sitting on his lap.
A gentle smile appeared on his face.
He gently stroked the heads of the two little girls, waiting for Shi and the others to finish cooking dinner.
Meanwhile, Setsuna stood by the side, looking at Sakura and Diona sitting on Lin Ye’s lap.
Her gaze gradually became distant, and she seemed to be thinking about something.
Soon, Shi finished cooking dinner, and after a simple meal, Sakura took Diona and Ling to the vegetable garden to use their talent abilities one last time today.
Originally, Setsuna was supposed to go with them.
But when Sakura called Setsuna today, Setsuna shook her head, indicating she didn’t want to go.
Sakura and the others didn’t think much of it, as they were just going to the vegetable garden.
Seeing that Setsuna didn’t want to go, the three of them set off towards the vegetable garden.
And after they left.
Setsuna blinked, her two blue wolf ears twitched a few times, and then she turned to look at Lin Ye.
Lin Ye was lying on his back on a rock, resting after dinner.
Setsuna looked at Lin Ye, who was alone around him. After taking a few deep breaths.
Mustering her courage, she stood up and walked towards Lin Ye.
Lin Ye was studying where to find clay next when he felt a shadow fall over his head.
He looked up and saw that it was Setsuna walking over.
He saw Setsuna pressing her lips together, her eyes appearing determined yet also somewhat hesitant.
Seeing this, Lin Ye smiled at Setsuna and took the initiative to ask, “Setsuna, what’s wrong? Is something the matter?”
Lin Ye saw Setsuna’s appearance and knew it wasn’t a major issue, but something was definitely on her mind.
When Setsuna heard Lin Ye’s words, her originally determined gaze flickered with panic for a few seconds.
Her blue and white wolf tail behind her stiffened.
But soon, Setsuna’s gaze became even more determined.
Taking another deep breath, she said to Lin Ye, “Ye, I want to become stronger!”
Setsuna simply said these few words.
Lin Ye frowned and looked at Setsuna with confusion, not quite understanding her meaning.
Seeing Lin Ye’s reaction, Setsuna seemed to become a little anxious.
She spoke to Lin Ye again.
“Ye, can you also help me look at my talent ability? I want to be as strong as Xing and Ganyu.”
After saying this, Setsuna slowly lowered her head again, looking at the straw shoes that Xing had woven for her, and softly continued, “I don’t want to be abandoned because I’m weak anymore.”
