It finally clicked for Junior today, she realized what she was doing wrong and as a result, her results improved quite a bit. Either that or she is emulating her brother, which isn’t a bad thing.

The two of them have been working hard so I thought I would get them a reward for their efforts. I ended up picking up some chocolate ice cream, made with alchemical chocolate flavoring here in town, and they loved it.

As for what I did with my projects today, I started by meeting up with Tiddol to ask her advice. I described everything I was working with and she suggested that I use a spiral to help push out the water from a large bowl-shaped object. Her logic was that since I could get the water to spin a little safely then I could use that spinning motion to drive it up a spiral and out over the edges of the bowl.

Initial tests showed that the problems were things I could fix, like water pouring into the bowl too fast, not being able to make the water spin fast enough, or the whole tree tipping over entirely, but it would work. I just need to fix some minor issues first, that’s all, nothing I haven’t done before.

The first problem I worked towards solving was the tree tipping over, which makes things pretty hard to test everything else. It also seemed like the easiest problem to fix, even if it’s only a temporary fix. I ended up just putting a bunch of weight down in the roots of the plant to make it less top heavy, it took me a lot of tweaking and refinement to figure out how to get enough weight in the right place to prevent it from tipping over without unbalancing it while also avoiding putting so much weight that the whole tree sunk beneath the waves. There are several trees at the bottom of the ocean right now, and they are alive but they aren’t going to be able to grow or reproduce without sunlight. Though I did get a glass mushroom, maybe I can turn what I already have down there into a glass mushroom? It would allow them to thrive in the depths. Maye after I am done with the surface, I’m not in any hurry to explore the depths of the ocean quite yet. I think the only part of my body that could survive that is my dungeon core.

Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon.

During my downtime I mostly just thought to myself. I found a comfortable place out in the middle of nowhere and let my thoughts flow, only to be rudely interrupted by a hunter firing an arrow past me at a non-sentient beast that happened to be close by. Based on the fact that he didn’t recognize me I figured he wasn’t from around here, and I was proven right when he said as much himself in a very fancy and overdrawn apology that reminds me of one my dad described himself using in a similar situation. It quickly became painfully obvious that he was trying to emulate my dad to try and seduce me, which is really weird for me. Having met the original everything he tried seemed laughable. I tried ignoring him for a while, but that proved impossible so I teleported away.

I hope I don’t meet him again, he was really annoying and cocky. He’s probably used to simple-minded girls just gushing at his voice.

Anyway, Good Night Diary.
