006. To the Surface

Poke, Poke. Jiggle, jiggle.

"Hehe, this is fun. It's so squishy. Make more of them. I want more jiggle jiggle."

"I would if I could, but I can't so I won't. I don't have enough LF or MP right now. I'm also not sure how to get more LF now. I mean this area we are in is kinda just an empty room not connecting to anywhere. Even if I was ok with just killing everything and taking their LF by force there is no one here but us.... Hmm, maybe I could take your LF?"

"NOOOO, NOOOO. Not my LF, You can't take my LF, I won't let you! Besides, I'm considered one of your monsters, and If I die you only get back the same amount of LF that was used to summon me in the first place. Well unless I level up then you get a bit more, but I haven't yet so there." as she said that she stuck her tongue out at David.

"Hmm, but if I did that I would have enough to summon another slime then."

"Eek, umm, Ahh I know you can just start to build your dungeon and connect it to the surface so that bugs and other animals can come into the dungeon and have the slime eat them for their LF. That way you won't have to turn me into a jiggle jiggle."

"Ahh but I really wanted to see you as a Slime. Oh well no helping it then I guess I have to build my dungeon a little then so my slime can get me some LF. I don't really mind it eating bugs and animals I just didn't like the thought of eating humans and such. So how exactly do I do this?"

"Just like with [Summoning], go to your skills and select [Build] then select [Dig] and away you go."

"Sounds easy enough."

"Damn I really should have taken a better look at this menu when I did the [Summon]. Lots of options in here. What's this? [Body] skill?"

"Human, Slime?"

"What, What? You have Human in there? How? You should only have slime. Human shouldn't be for a long time! You haven't even evolved a Primate type monster yet!"

"What are you talking about? I don't even know what this [Body] option is."

"Lucky, Lucky, you are so lucky! First the blessing from 2 High Gods, and now this! Ah, I get it now, you must be a reincarnated person, that is how you got the 2 blessings and this. The [Body] option lets you make a body for you so you don't have to be stuck in that pebble all the time. Normally you can only make bodies of creatures you can summon so that you can more easily interact with them or help with the LF gathering. But you being a reincarnated person can also make a body of what ever you were before you died. You might not look like what you did before you died but you will be the same species at least."

"You mean I'm not stuck in this pebble for all eternity AND I might be able to get the body of a dragon if I am ever able to create one?!? Damn at least the future isn't looking as bleak as I thought."

"Ya, ya. I know right. I sooooooooo wish I was still the [Dungeon Master] so I could change my body when I'm bored, But being a [Dungeon Fairy] is oodles and oodles of fun too."

"Too bad it costs too much LF for both Slime and Human body for now. Sigh, I guess I should start the digging to the surface for now so we can start to collect some LF."

With that David Selected [Build] then [Dig] From the list. When he did that a 3D clear blue glowing cube appeared in his vision. As he willed he could change the size shape and length of it but as he changed it he noticed that with every adjustment a number near the cube would change. It then occurred to him that this number must represent how much MP it cost to excavate that size and shape of area. When he moved the cube over to a corner of the room and into the rock the number changed even more probably because of the different materials it was going through other than the air from before.

"Hmm, this might take a while, I can only dig out a little before I run out of MP and have to wait for it to refill. Maybe I can do this quicker If I only make the hole big enough for the slime to go out or some bugs to come in."

"Good idea, good idea. The basic slime is so week that just about everything but the smallest of creatures can kill it. But If it can kill enough it might level up or even evolve into something nice!"

"Ok, I will make the tunnel just big enough for the slime to go into it."

"Be careful, be careful, don't let it go too far from you or you will lose control of it and you can say bye-bye to all those LF you spent on it."

"...........I don't want that."

With that David slowly started to dig a small hole to the surface.
