Volume 2 - CH 6

Three days have passed since then.

The wounds that were scraped off during that time healed and now I don't feel any pain.

The wound heals quickly, probably because I'am an animal.

However, I couldn't go hunting at all for these three days.

Or should I say, I don't want to.

I was devoted to remodeling my home to make it better.

However, it was more difficult and time consuming than I expected.

The first thing I started was cleaning the surroundings.

This humid place near the waterfall is rarely grassy.

I cut them apart with "Water Blade".

Thanks to me using it over and over again, it has become easier to cut grass.

Of course, I plan to store the grass remains in my house.

I don't know what it can be used for, but let's sleep on it until the moss formed inside my house.

After all ... I really want to sleep on the bed.

No, it doesn't hurt my body without it, but it feels strange.

The current situation is that I can't sleep unless I lay something below me.

Rinse the grass remains cleanly with "Infinite Water Manipulation" and then bring it inside the house.

Yes. With this skill, I can do most of the things without my hands!

It's perfect.

Next is the fallen leaves.

This is also because it is near the waterfall, and it is muddy with the soil.

It's unpleasant to dirtied by soil on my body just by passing over it.

It seems to be possible to wash my body with this water.

So, first of all, I decided to clean all the falling leaves.

If I do it with infinite water manipulation, it will end in no time.

In addition, I was near the waterfall this time, so I was able to use the water from the waterfall basin.

The Mp used for only manipulating water is far less than MP used for creating the water.

As expected, the water snake doesn't get stronger if it's far from the water.

If I leave from here, I must set up a base near the riverside or lake.

When the water was used like a roller to collect the dirty leaves and soil, the water became more and more dirty.

By the time I finished cleaning, there was so much dirty water that I thought it was sludge.

Well, what to do with this dirty water ... Take it far away and throw it away.

No, I thought about letting it flow into the river, but it's going to Reizen, right?

I can't do that.

Throw it in a suitable place ... Alright.

Ah, but just as I thought, when I clean them with water, the ground gets messed up.

Oh, by the way, what is the word to express that the ground is wet like this?

Is it soggy bottoms or sodden ground, is that the right words? I feel like I've seen a few of people said those words.

No need to worrying something like that, I have to resume my works without thinking about anything unnecessary.

As expected, this is difficult.

Every time I walk(slither?), it gets dirty.

There is always mist, so it won't dry out.

Hmm ~~~ I want to lay something that is easy to dry even if it in the humid place.

It's actually fine with the mowed grass, but ... I don't think anything around here is good.

I need the plant that are resistant to moisture.

Alright! Imma going to look for it!

◆

―Three hours later―

I brought it back! A lot of grass!

Not far from here, there was a hard grass like Japanese pampas grass, so I cut them.

I was surprised because I couldn't cut it with a water blade ...

However, in order to improve my skill, I forced myself to keep using that skill.

Thanks to that, it became easier to cut the grass, so I brought back a lot of it.

Hmm, infinite water manipulation is really convenient.

I only use the little ammount of water and having the central part of the grass held in a bundle so only the outer layer of grass was wet.

Therefore, I succeeded brought fifty bundles of grass.

Once I come back to my house, the rest is easy!

A simple job of laying grass around the house.

Manipulate the water and spread the grass neatly.

This should prevent mud from getting on my body just by walking (slithering).

But if I strechet the water more thin than this, maybe I can bring it a little more.

Let's bring it back while improving my skill proficiency.

Okay! This is my last task! I'll bring the moss home!

There are several place to get the moss.

All of them are thick and comfortable to sit on, and there are many moss on the rocks.

The problem is ... how to carry it ... I'm worried.

For the time being, I try to remove the moss that sticks with infinite water operation as usual.

However, the moss state is too brittle.

It worked halfway, but it crumbled towards the goal.

With this, it is not possible to lay a carpet of moss.

Perhaps this is a matter of my skill.

I think I found the solution.

If I move the water following the rocks surface, I can remove it cleanly.

After I think of that idea, I act immediately.

Make the water thin like a thread and move it slowly and carefully so that it follows the uneven surfaces of the rock.

And finally I succeeded in separating them.

Noice.

It doesn't lose its shape, and there are no cracks anywhere.

Wrap it in infinite water and float it so that it does not collapse.

And spread it like a carpet.

Crumbled.

Ah!?

I kept the shape of the rock, so I thought it would be better to stretch it to lay it on the floor, but when I stretched it, it crumbled.

Perhaps I should leave the uneven shape as it is.

It's easy to crumble just by a slight mistake.

I should have been a little more careful ...

Maybe peel the moss from rock is not the right method.

I want to throw the rock as it is, but ... I can't cut the rock with my current skill.

In addition, these rocks are not even have a flat surface, so I can't sleep comfortably with these.

I decided to look for a round stone.

When I searched for it, I found the suitable stone immediately.

Of course, the moss is there as well.

But ... it's pretty big.

The area with moss is not that wide, but the stone itself is large.

It's not like I can't brought it, but Idon't know if it fit in the house or not.

Alright! Time to renovate!

I immediately go home and start digging a hole for the the bed.

My plan is to fill the hole with the moss as much as it is sprout out of the ground.

If this is the task ... I should be able to do it!

After digging the ground, carry the mossy stone with infinite water manipulation.

I'm grateful that Infinite Water Manipulation can carry heavy objects without any inconvenience.

Part of the wall of the house has been removed so it was easy to put them in.

It will have to be repaired later, it's all for a comfortable bed.

It can't be helped right?.

Bham!

Finally, my surroundings became clean and my bed was completed.

The bed is higher and looks like a little hill.

I wrap the stone around the surface and sleep, so the feeling of moss is transmitted to my whole body.

Fuah ~ Thiz iz a blizz ~ ………… Zzzz.
