If you've changed your mind, you've got to get to work on a lot of things to keep you alive. It's hard to say in this situation, but I have one suggestion to make.

"... Miwa, I'd like to go look for the waterfront around tomorrow, okay?

"Are you going away?

"I think that's going to happen"

I could do some earthenware for now, but whatever the vessels and pans are, I have a limited number of times I can use scoops and knives made of dirt. Even though it's hard to make. Probably won't be able to use it by the time I finish making one.

That's why I want to look for stones and rocks by the water to build abrasive stoneware. If you had a thick, sturdy rock, you could make an axe. If you can make an axe, you can also process wood. You'll be rich all at once.

"In the meantime, I'm gonna find this one with my bare hands."

"That's all you got...... ok"

Going looking for something from this base means dying. But since we're already dead one at a time, we both understand that this is the world we can't live without.

"So what are we going to do today?

"I'm going to build kamado to make it easier to build earthenware in the future."

"Oh my God!

"We need a lot of water, so help us out."

I was also prepared to make bricks while I was making earthenware.

Then, I spent almost a whole day making kamado. It's as tall as my navel. I think this will make all kinds of tiles and bricks from mud and clay in the future. I'll use a lot of fire, so the ashes that came out of it can be used for something.

For dinner, potatoes were boiled and eaten in pots made of earthenware. The potatoes are good, because there are delicious varieties that you don't have to season. Miho has made this suggestion during such a dinner.

"I had a dream, you know, I spent three days in this world and I thought, after all, survival isn't about water?

"Right."

"After all, at level 1 of hydrology, there's not enough to come out. Can I use it to raise the remaining skill points, level 2?

"Right, if it looks extra, you can make a water bottle or something and save it... okay!

I know it's time for me to think about assigning skill points, too, but Miho would still say I should keep it, so I can't execute it. Will the day come when I will use it?

When we finished dinner, we wiped each other's bodies with hot water, using a handkerchief that was in our student clothes pockets. I feel muffled, but I just have to put up with it. Then Mihana shows me how the basket is made. He looked as good as he could do tomorrow.

Then, as usual, the two of us hugged each other and slept.

The next morning.

I ate the potatoes I left behind yesterday and the ingredients ran out. Well, but we're going to look for the waterfront, and you'll find plenty of food. When you have a basket of beautiful flowers, you can carry a lot of them at once. You'll be fine that I put up with you for about a day.

"Well, I'll come"

"Mmm..."

Beautiful flowers hugged and kissed me. Because I know I'm going to die. Hugs and kisses are going to ritualize every new attempt. Well, that's fine.

"Just like last time, I'll get back to you as soon as something demonic comes along, okay?

"Yeah, okay"

"Then you're coming."

Last time I was on my way, I decided to stand in the middle of the base on the right. And it is on the left that beautiful flowers are sourcing wood and spreads that were found by demons. I know that if we both go a certain distance, we could run into demons, so I'm going north today. Somehow.

Since the soil on this land can be like clay if it contains water, I assume it is a loose mountain area. There must be waterfront and affordable stones somewhere in the mountains.

Go straight while checking the position of the sun to avoid getting lost in the road. People go 80 meters a minute on foot, but they'll only be traveling about half that speed because they're moving on looking for something that's going to be an ingredient or something.

So it would have been roughly three hours since I was hit by the magic and temper unleashed by SSS-ranked demons about four times, but I never actually encountered them, and they came to the river. A normal river, not big or small. A lot of what I was looking for seems to be rolling.

... Zuchin.

That's when I tried to get close to the river, there was such a loud noise that I thought it was an earthquake. Besides, its shaking and sounding is not a one-time thing, it keeps getting closer and closer to this one.

There's something main about SSS-ranked demons in this river, and if you try to take resources, you get pissed off or something...? No way. The width of the river is only about the height of Alim, and I can't believe there's an SSS-ranked demon to territorial a place like this.

Well, there was a shadow in my sight. Looks like the sun's covered. I didn't realize, I can't believe we're so close already.

When you look up there, you have purple skin… Brachiosaurus or Supersaurus? Anyway, there was a monster there like a giant dinosaur with a long neck.
