180 - - Traveling Is the Way

The third floor of the general store produces enough to sell while I am away on a trip to Fuso. I don't know how long it will take, so let's produce a lot. It would be easier to come and go if Fuso had a transfer gate, but we cannot expect the merchants to care about the sea dragons every time they visit Fuso. Even if there is a gate, it may be forbidden for the public to use.

It would be bad to wake up Kal and the others upstairs, and it would be a hassle to take care of them, so let's get a set of production equipment in the [house] as soon as possible.

<, but we are making steady progress with the maintenance of the house. The kitchen was already equipped, but it was changed to a fireplace with a masonry oven. <, the induction stove named "magic range" is out of the way. The mixer and other fantasy equipment have been eliminated to give it an old-fashioned look, although it has been rearranged somewhat.

It takes a little time to adjust the recipe to your liking, but it's only for registration and I like the look!　The kitchen is lined with herb knives and cutting boards that would never be used in the real world.

Next to the kitchen is a room for meals, an entrance leading to the outer circle of the island, a living room leading to it, a library next to it, and a bedroom. Facing the inner circle where the mystics live, this is a bright living room with a window, a guest room, a bath, etc. There is also space for a staircase so that a second floor can be added. The thick stone walls and floors and the spaces between the walls allow the exhaust heat from the fireplaces in each room to circulate. Trinh recommends to close the fireplaces for cooking during the hot season so that the exhaust air from the fireplaces goes straight to the outside, and to put ice tools in the fireplaces that are not in use. The stone is made of a material that has high heat storage properties, so that it stays warm when warm and cold when cold for a while.

I don't have a mason, so I bought this stuff. I don't have any [masonry], so I bought this part of the house. I'm going to make some changes, such as adding a hip board, changing the type of window, and so on. I will build a basement in front of the second floor and make it a production room. It's fun to be able to do whatever I want with the house without worrying about the budget. It's fun to be able to do whatever I want to [the house] without worrying about the budget.

A conversation with Clan, grinning and taking production seriously.

Chrysanthemum Princess: Good evening, sir. Leo, I have the flu, so I'll be on vacation for a while from today.

Ochazuke: Bust!

Peter: www.

Homura: Take care.

The influenza virus has been repeatedly chasing after new drugs and new types of viruses. The medicine will bring the fever down soon, but this year's flu has left me with a cough, so I won't be able to get over it for a few days.

Shin: I'm home!　Leo, they say you have the flu.

Homura: Welcome back, I heard so.

Peter: okakaoka

Chrysanthemum Princess: Welcome back, aren't you?

Check your email after you log out. Leo should have an update.

Ochazuke: Here's the news, the arena bug has been fixed!

Peter: www.

Shin: What is it?

Ochazuke: Players can no longer improve their skills in the arena.

Peter: ! ?v! Then it looks like I won't get any experience.

Homura: Was the arena skill improvement a bug?

Ochazuke: You don't want the level to be rampant with intentional losses.

Peter: Let's go to the loose enemy in the labyrinth when the wind favorites (Leo and Homura) are all there.

Ochazuke: Is there somewhere you want to go?

Chrysanthemum Princess: Oh, I want to go to the dungeon where we can pick up the pieces!

Homura: A dungeon to pick up?

Peter: The dungeon north of Navai?

Kikuhime: That's right, isn't it?

Ochazuke: Can we make it with these guys?

Kikuhime: If you're lucky, right?

Shin: What is it?

Peter: . You can choose not to fight enemies, and you must place an item on the altar at each level to clear the dungeon.

Shin: Heh.

Ochazuke: Sometimes the enemies drop only production materials, not the target items, so if you are a fighter only, you may not be able to proceed to the dungeon.

Chrysanthemum Princess: You can't use item pouches, so be careful.

Peter: There's fishing too, so good luck, Shin!

Shin: Hey!

"Is it there as soon as you enter?"

An altar that sits before encountering the enemy.

Three daggers.

Peter opens the box placed under the altar and speaks the theme. Inside the box is a subject and a piece of production equipment for blacksmithing with a limit of five uses. If the altar is activated before opening the box, the player can return to the altar.

"Is it OK if I do it?　Do you want to do the oatmeal?"

"I'll leave it to you."

The blacksmiths are Peter, Ochazuke, Shin, and Leo, who is away. Shin has done little in the way of production.

The enemies in the first room are weak, so they split up in groups to eliminate the enemies and hit the mining points. The items in the original item pouch cannot be used, but those obtained in the dungeon can be used.

"I got a dagger from the enemy!"

Shin came back, fluttering the dagger he had raised.

"I got one here, too.

"I guess you get a lot."

I didn't get the dagger itself, so I gave Peter the ore I had picked up.

"Well, it's the first time."

I've got four copper ores.

《I'm getting steel x 4

After receiving the items, Peter produced one dagger and placed three daggers on the altar together with the dropped one, and the door behind the altar opened with the announcement that the items had been acquired. Apparently, the daggers offered to the altar were not given.

The extra materials can be taken back to the dungeon, and the dungeon is popular among production workers because they can obtain higher-ranked materials as they advance. It is said that they spend a thrilling time mining and gathering materials without being noticed by the enemy. However, if you fail to make an offering at the altar, you will be thrown out without anything.

"The further you go, the more you gamble on opening the box..."

Shin looks a little pleased with himself. You really like gambling, don't you?

"I'm stuck with the glasses!　I saw a post that said..."

"This place is like the labyrinth, you can mark five layers at a time, and the subjects are random, so be patient and open it until you find a subject that you can make."

Peter and Ochazuke are stable in their knowledge.

"By the way, the day after tomorrow I'm going to an island called , probably Japanese island, first two people to arrive, who wants to go?"

"What kind of strength?"

Shin shows interest.

"I don't know.　But I think we'll go through the northeast or north-northeast area of the isle."

"Don't be absurd.

Peter seems to have fought with a monkey (ape) before.

The empire seems to be in danger.

"I wish you wouldn't be so reckless."

"I'll have an escort--, no, the two guys who are coming with me will be my escort?"

You're getting more and more reckless, aren't you!

But first of all, you're not here during the daytime on a weekday!

"Hmm, what time?　I'd love to go, but I'd have to work the night shift and stay up all night."

Ochazuke, Kikuhime, and Shin have been turned down, but Peter seems to be able to attend. As for the weekday daytime, well, you'll have to give up on that, since I work all day tomorrow and the day after tomorrow is my day off.

"Why don't we just split up when we get to Huso?　There will be no fighting in the city. We'll log out and sleep over there. Oh, and you have to be a cavalryman.

"I guess that would work?　Copy that."

You'll be my escort.

That is the most baffling setup I've ever seen!

That's what happened.

< when I dug up the sewing materials for Princess Chrysanthemum. It seems to be a general rule to go through all the floors before opening the altar. It might be a good idea to take it easy when you get tired of fighting. Well, it is better to beat the boss, so the dungeon is the labyrinth for the time being.

And so the day of departure for Fuso. At Mr. Org's wholesale shop in the magical isle, I wait with Luba and Peter for the hops that will accompany us to be ready.

Before leaving for Fusou, I went to get the staff from Julius, and when I went to check on Ruba, he said he wanted to go see the sword smith in Fusou.

"I am < at swords because an old friend of mine from when we were kids preferred warped swords instead of straight blades. The friend has long since passed away, but his mother came from Fuso, and I had heard about Japanese swords and was curious about them.

He said. How is it possible to have a Japanese sword for a fuso? The sword in question is currently in the process of being taken to the temple to be sharpened before it is sent to the temple for blessing, so it is currently out of his hands, leaving him with an empty schedule.

By the way, when I met the boy Julius, he was as happy as ever to talk about his cane and made a better one than the one I sometimes see in the player's store. Above all, the handle, the length and the look of the cane are just what I like. The cane is beautiful and not showy for a big jewel. I will take good care of it.

< for him, but he seemed not to have enough level of skill, "I will try my best to handle this! and. I'm sorry, from <> I can get branches and planks by [Gathering] even without [Cutting], but the trees that grow around here sometimes give me branches and firewood, and it seems that I need [Cutting] to get high rank ones that would be good for making walking sticks. As an apology, I quietly added black opals and other gems.

The wagons are loaded with goods to be sold in Fuso (over there), mainly sugar and glacial sugar. Other goods were already half-loaded before they came to the wholesale shop (here), so I guess they deal with non-food items as well.

We can also see what appears to be the adventurer escort that Hop mentioned.

We are now traveling to Fuso with wagons and escorts.

"This is a very adventurous turn of events. Will there be bandits or pirates on the way?

"I won't say anything disturbing."

Dismissed by Peter. --Is this a pattern of unexpected demons?

It's going to be an exciting journey to see what lies ahead.
