Fat and Ugly Villainess Wins Back Her Five Beast Husband

Before Sora started, she asked Martin to have someone burn some grass.

Then she took a new pottery jar she had made and filled it with water. Adding some salt from the leather bag, she waited for the saltwater to settle.

Coarse salt contained many impurities, and once it was poured into the water, a layer of debris quickly floated to the surface.

Sora used a sieve woven from willow branches to scoop out the impurities.

Then she grabbed a handful of ash from the burnt grass and threw it into the mixture.

When the people of the tribe saw this, they had been watching seriously, but the moment Sora tossed the ash into the saltwater, the crowd erupted.

"That’s edible salt! How can she throw ash into it?"

"Exactly! Does Kaelira really know what she’s doing?"

Lyra stood nearby with a sneer.

"I told you she wouldn’t know how. Who throws ash into salt?"

Serena also added fuel to the fire.

"With ash mixed into the salt, will it even be edible?"

Sora couldn’t be bothered to argue with them. She simply glanced at them and said,

"Why don’t you come over and try it yourselves?"

The moment she said that, no one spoke.

After waiting for a while, the saltwater settled again, becoming much clearer.

The people of the tribe secretly felt a little surprised.

While adding the wood ash, Sora instructed,

"Prepare some fine sand and some coarse sand."

The beastmen had already decided to follow the leader’s orders and let Kaelira take charge today. Hearing her instructions, they quickly went to gather the materials.

After giving her instructions, Sora looked at Lukan, who was standing beside her.

"Can you bring me some charcoal from my cooking stove?"

Without saying a word, Lukan turned and left.

A short while later, three groups returned with everything she had requested.

Sora took out another pottery jar she had prepared earlier and layered coarse sand, fine sand, and charcoal inside it before pouring the clarified saltwater through the filter.

At the same time, she opened a small hole at the bottom of the jar so the filtered water could drain into another container.

Once it was full, she asked someone to light a fire, placed her clay pot over it, poured the filtered brine inside, and slowly stirred it.

Gradually, a layer of white salt crystals began forming around the inside of the pot.

"Look! White salt is really coming out!"

someone among the beastmen shouted.

Ding!

Congratulations, Host! Lukan’s heartbeat value has surged and is now approaching 80.

Ding!

Congratulations, Host! Xavier’s heartbeat value has surged and is now approaching 70.

Ding!

Congratulations, Host! Lucas’s heartbeat value has surged and is now approaching 70.

Ding!

Congratulations, Host! Ace’s heartbeat value has surged and is now approaching 70.

Ding!

Congratulations, Host! Ryan’s affection value has increased.

Current affection value: 0.

As Sora stirred the brine, she suddenly heard the system’s notifications.

She was startled at first, but soon became delighted.

"These intelligence-loving types really do warm up quickly. Especially Ryan... definitely the scholarly type."

Before Sora could finish celebrating, the system delivered another message.

Ding!

Due to the rapid increase in the Host’s affection values, the system has decided to grant additional rewards.

Please check them.

Sora raised an eyebrow.

"A new reward? What is it?"

Congratulations, Host! You have successfully captured the favor of five targets at once.

Reward:

A large gift package

A world map

The sensitive points of each target

"A map... and sensitive points? That’s it?"

Sora pouted.

She had expected something much bigger. The rewards sounded rather underwhelming.

"How boring."

She felt slightly disappointed.

System:

"Of course not. Those are only the bonus rewards.

In addition, your Water Ability has been upgraded by three levels, and your Metal, Wood, Earth, and Fire Abilities have all been unlocked at Level 1."

Water Ability upgraded to Level 3.

This unexpected reward delighted Sora.

A Level 2 Water Ability could accelerate water flow, while Level 3 granted a cleansing function.

With that, Sora felt that her journey toward whitening her skin would become much easier.

Back in the apocalypse, her awakened ability had only been Water, so she knew nothing about the other elemental abilities.

Now, after arriving in this beast world, she had unexpectedly become a wielder of all five elements.

"Life in this beast world is really getting better."

"I wonder what the Metal, Wood, Earth, and Fire abilities can do."

She immediately asked,

"System, how do I use these new abilities?"

System:

"A user guide has already been sent to the Host. You may operate according to the guide."

"A guide?"

"So basically an instruction manual."

That made Sora feel much more at ease.

"Got it. Thank you."

System:

"Host, because there are currently many people around and to avoid affecting your mission, the gift package and user guide have been stored in your System Backpack. You may retrieve them later."

"Okay."

She really hadn’t expected this stingy system to reward her with so many things this time.

Once she had some free time, she planned to find a secluded place and study everything carefully—especially the new cleansing function.

Meanwhile, the water in the clay pot continued boiling.

More and more white salt crystals formed around the edges.

The beastman standing closest to Sora couldn’t help shouting,

"It’s coming out! There’s even more salt now!"

Seeing this, Martin ignored the heat and reached directly into the pot, grabbing a handful of the freshly crystallized salt with his bare hand.

He tasted a little on his fingertip, and his expression immediately brightened.

"Not bad."

"This salt tastes just right."

Then he turned toward Mark.

"Bring out the salt we traded for from the city-state."

Mark nodded and took the wrapped salt from inside his animal-skin clothing.

Before he could unwrap it, Martin took it from him, opened the leather wrapping, and compared it with the freshly refined salt in his other hand.

Under the sunlight, both handfuls sparkled brilliantly.

However, the salt in Martin’s left hand was noticeably whiter and finer than the salt from the city-state.

"This salt is even whiter and finer than the salt traded from the city-state!"

someone in the crowd exclaimed.

Mark was equally astonished.

After taking another careful look, he tasted a little of the refined salt from Martin’s hand.

His eyes widened.

There was no bitterness at all.

He couldn’t help exclaiming,

"How is this possible?

This salt tastes even better than the salt from the city-state!"

Sora smiled inwardly.

Why wouldn’t it be better?

The city-state’s salt had only gone through simple settling and evaporation.

The impurities in the brine had never been properly filtered.

Her salt, on the other hand, had passed through multiple layers of filtration using charcoal and fine sand, producing a much purer and cleaner result.
