"Here we are. This is my country, Arabic."

There was a kingdom that became an oasis in the desert.

Walking through the wide castle gates, the landscape was as different from the desert outside.

It's a stone building made here and there.

A variety of stalls and roadside people were crowded there, presumably on Central Street.

It was a beautiful sight to call it the heart of the desert.

Oh, it's a pretty good city.

Walking down Central Street while riding in Cobda, I leaked my thoughts.

"Thank you very much. Recently, however, the reduction in monsters has led to lower food and processed goods and lower production. As a result, trade with the outside world has recently become difficult."

I didn't feel that it affected the people of the city so much, but when I was told, I felt like I was in a hurry to buy and sell things.

Well then, we have to do something as soon as possible.

"Please, Kyo-san. You're the only one I can count on."

Shin turned to me with a serious expression that I had never seen before, and I smiled to reassure her.

"This is my palace."

Across Central Street, there is an Arabic palace where we enter, guided by Singh.

At the same time as entering the site, the soil inside was different from the rest, with slight nature and grass, and a small lake in front of the palace.

Then he passed through the garden, and came to the door of the palace, and for the first time Sin descended from Kobda one after the other, and we descended from Kobda to follow his example.

"Kyo and you will be asked to use the room on the third floor of this palace. This maid will take care of you, so please let me know if you'd like to check your room immediately."

That's how Singh introduced the woman in the long skirt maid's clothes in the desert, who bowed politely when he saw us.

"Ah, no, not really, Sin. I can check the room later. More than that, now..."

That's how I unload the baggage I was carrying in Cobda and take out something from it.

"Let me start growing monsters here."

That's how I took out the various monsters I had cultivated so far.

"Is this the right place? Kyo-san"

I see. It will be difficult to grow in sandy land, and on the contrary, I think there is more room to grow in this hard wasteland. "

That said, I grabbed the rocky soil in the wasteland and answered Sin, who was listening next door.

Immediately afterwards, I asked Singh questions about the land.

Firstly, healthy soil, like vegetables, is ideal for monsters to grow.

However, such luxury will not be available in desert countries.

In the desert, it can be a sandy or dry wasteland.

The soil near Sin's palace was relatively healthy, but still needs space to grow monsters.

Moreover, in this case, the amount is enough to be divided among the people of one country.

Then there's no room for that kind of monster.

So I listened to Sin and came to this wasteland.

Well, let's just till this place lightly, and then try planting the seeds quickly. I'm sorry, Jack, but I need your help. "

"Leave it to me, brother."

"Master Kyo is arrogant. I'll help you too."

Me too!

Continuing with Jack, Fitness and Rock loosen up the wasteland with quails.

Kyo-san, let me help you too.

"Oh, really? Well then, please."

That's what I said. I'll give Singh the wrinkle, and he'll help me get on the ground.

When I was doing such a job, I heard Sin wiping his sweat next to me.

"After all, is it difficult for Kyo-san to grow monsters in the sand?

"I don't know. It's hard to grow a normal monster because it can't store water in the sand."

I can't say for sure, but it's probably very likely.

I hear that growing plants in the sand in the desert is difficult even on Earth.

If I could find monsters growing in these desert environments, I might be able to grow them, but I think it's difficult with the ones I've brought.

Of course, I'm going to sow some monster seeds in the sand for confirmation later.

"First of all, a killer plant that grows in the wasteland that I've improved. Plus bean monster jewel beans, falling stars and Bahanello. And I'll plant Weedleaf, so let's see which one grows best."

That said, I chose monsters that were relatively easy to grow even in rough environments and planted them in wasteland that was familiar to the ground.

As for the killer plant, it's been proven that I grew up in the wasteland before.

Probably the most successful monster growing in the desert this time.

Continuing jewel beans and peanuts are bean monsters, and they are also the kind of monsters that grow rapidly in the wilderness unexpectedly.

I heard that legumes are also strong in the wilderness, but that's exactly what they are.

I hope that Weedleaf can contribute to greening the desert with its unique breeding power.

Regarding Bahanello, I feel like I'll try it by way of a bonus.

"Thank you, Kyo-san. I really don't want to thank you for helping me out here."

"Come on, it's not that big a deal. It's just that I was curious about trying to grow monsters in the desert."

That said, Sin lowered her head again, and I accidentally got illuminated.

"Hey, brother! So why don't you plant Jack Au Lantern?

That's why Jack is pointing at the Jack Au Lantern seed he was bringing in.

"Oh, that's nice. Well, let's try it, Jack."

Jack au Lantern grows Jack au Lantern.

The pictorial side was interesting, so I accidentally adopted it.

Hmm, this is it.

A few days later, I was roaring to see how many monsters I had succeeded in growing.

As we initially saw, several killer plants were sprouting and growing.

Now it is moving around in a small pun state.

However, the cultivation of other monsters seems to be bad.

Legume jewel beans and fallen flower stars are sprouting, but they're still not so good.

Probably half of the usual amount is expected to be fruitful.

Weedleaf is also a little fruitful, but it seems that we still need time on an annual basis for these to grow.

The other monsters didn't even bud.

Many of them still don't suit harsh environments.

The seeds planted on the sand still seemed not to come out.

"In the meantime, we might actually be able to harvest some of the killer plants, but we still don't have enough..."

Perhaps we can actually secure a few hundred units with this, but considering the amount that goes to all of the kingdoms, I would like a thousand units, no, 10,000 units.

I want a monster to make it come true all the time, and I can still feel that it is not enough at the present time.

This may be a more fragile task than I thought.

Though I thought that I should cultivate new monsters, and when I tried to return to the palace to catch monsters in this area, I encountered unexpected people.

"Hey, Kyo. When I went to see him for the first time in a long time, I heard he went to the desert and looked for him. What are you doing here, man?

That's my line, Oyaji.

After the culinary confrontation with my mother, it was a rough reunion with Oyaji.

Speaking of which, I wonder what he's been up to.

In my opinion, it is not literally useful in the duel against the Emperor. No, it didn't help with the cooking fight with your mother before that, did it?

It's like a bad guy... he's got a candidate for Madao.

"So, seriously, what are you doing here? Looks like you're doing something interesting."

I didn't even notice the thought in my brain, and I saw a monster growing in the wasteland.

Well, even this is my parent, and I made vegetables in this world, so it's not like I'm completely incompetent, so why don't you ask me for some reference?

That's why I'm chatting about the current situation.

"I don't know. Certainly not when it comes to monsters that can be grown in the desert. That's what you're up to."

"That's why. Do you have any good hands? Oyaji"

I listened to the line without much expectation, but the answer from there was unexpected.

Well, maybe it's time you went to the next stage.

"Next stage?

He answered me with a feeling that it was no wonder.

"Hey, did you forget? This world was originally prepared for evolution to take people to the next level. That means it's also a stage for people to grow up."

"I heard that, but what is that?

"You're a dull guy, aren't you?

That's what I'm saying, and I'm rushing to you to tell me the answer right away.

"I mean, yes. Your monster cultivation skills are about to go to the next stage."

"?! Does that mean my ability will grow?

I nodded at my answer.

That was an unexpected answer to the boulder.

Until now, I've been thinking about new cultivation with monsters as they are and monsters in this area.

But the answer Oyaji suggested is exactly the way to go on them.

I didn't even think of evolving my skills in the first place.

Well, that's why I'm going back a little bit to prepare for that.

"Where are you going back?

In response to Oyaji's line, I casually asked back, and then I was struck by the same or even more shock as before.

"I'm sure it's settled. Earth."

"............ yes?

It's been a long time since I've been home.

It was as if I was going on a day trip by train.
