Chapter 163 (2/2)

“This is the first time I’ve come here, but this place is smelly isn’t it?”

“That’d be the smell of the salt water The smell is a bit weaker than the ocean I remember, but I don’t really dislike it”

“Smells fishy… Hey, Kehma Could we use the sea’slike a kraken or sharks?

I opened the DP catalog from the menu

… Hohoh, there’s even a shark with two heads I wonder if there’s stuff like ghost sharks or flying sharks?

For right now, the ones that stand out are the giant squid, giant octopus, and giant nautilus There are ones pretty close to huins and mermaids, as well as plenty of sea creatures like jellyfish and sea cucuon? Feels like I shouldn’t look to closely at the catalog It doesn’t really h It costs more than 100,000,000 DP [3]

And then I noticed sos were cheap in the DP departs like [Heat Source] or a wyvern, which were both unconnected to the sea, were olem, which was 500 DP each at Tsuia Mountain, had quadrupled in price up to 2,000 DP here

“… Could it be that DP changes depending on the location?”

“Heeeh, let e, they’re still 20 DP”

Why was the first thing you checked goblins? As expected of Rokuko

… Ah, ghost-types are cheaper? I guess they would appear ht that they would in h

“I see, so there’s a difference in DP depending on the situation, eon core and master increase or decrease the various costs as well”

“No no Kehet another world’s rice if it weren’t Kehma”

Oh yeah So it was oods with DP then? Maybe gole humanoid bipedal monsters that used both hands

… In that case, it’d be better to learn about our opponent Looks like we could take advantage of it for some countermeasures

“Hey, Rokuko What is our opponent this tion’s three cores, a snake, a frog, and a slug”

What a three-way deadlock Reptile, a? A shellfish? Seeet creepy-slimy monsters on the cheap [3]

“Well, the Demon Lord Team’s was in human form, but… umm, Core No 666 is… as she? Sorry I don’t know!”

“… I’ll try asking Haku-san tomorrow”

For now I took out the beach chair and parasol I’d put in e] for just this sort of occasion

Stabbing the parasol’s pole into the sand, I laid down on the beach chair under the shade

The sound of the waves et soood rest here

“… Meat, doesn’t it look like it’d be really fun to make a castle where the sand meets the sea?”

“Yes, I’ll join you”

By the hen I woke up in the evening, it ht’ve been washed away by the tides or maybe they just didn’t make it, but there was no sand castle
