In this episode, things get exciting as Fel puts Mukohda in a dangerous situation with some goblin creatures living in a camp. Although Fel mentions that goblin meat is actually inedible, orc meat is considered a good food source.
Later in the episode, Mukohda wakes up and learns that Fel has slain a goblin king, which they can use due to the crystal inside it—a crystal that can be sold for a good sum of money. Fel wants Mukohda to use the money to buy Wagyu steak again, but Mukohda refuses.
This episode also features a brief appearance by Ninrir, who is introduced in a mysterious way.
The episode also raises an interesting question about Japanese culture, as Mukohda falls for a scam, and the fraudsters take advantage of his good intentions. The author of the series explores the topic of money and its usage in a distinctly Japanese manner, which may be due to the cultural significance or the tangibility of the subject.
Overall, "Tondemo Skill de Isekai Hourou Meshi" remains a fantastic fantasy cooking series that sparks the viewer's curiosity about other cultures. The series' protagonist, Mukohda, still has a humble attitude toward money, and his character has yet to come to terms with the idea of never having to worry about money again.
