Once we took a warm bath and I felt like my entire body's fatigue was thrown away from the window, I sighed in relief, walking out of the baths with just a towel wrapped around my body. I was greeted by the servants as they led me to my room. In there, I wore some new clothes native of this country, a long and beautiful pink and purple dress resembling those of Persian dancers, showing my belly and my legs and arms a lot.
It honestly looked very charming so I tried it out. The skin exposition was pretty nice. I often just wore long dresses and heels but trying out new types of clothes is not bad at all. To say the least, I kind of like it a lot! Then, I jumped over the fluffy white bed.
POOF!
"Hahhh~ I want to nap for like a week…"
Despite being a hyperactive monster like I usually am, I am also a very lazybones person when I am given the opportunity to just sit around and do nothing. I loved to laze around with my family and just enjoy life as it is… And I'll certainly do that once I am back with them!

"Sure, rest well, Master."
"Thanks…"
I had already slept before though but sleeping inside a camp in the middle of the desert doesn't compare to sleeping inside a room like this one, comfortably on top of a fluffy bed, it was the best. Those thirty minutes went flying as I slept in this bliss. When I was woken up by White, only half an hour had passed, but that single nap really relaxed my mind and my body.
"Hahh… I really needed a nice sleep."
I quickly drank some cold water with ice cubes before going downstairs. Just as I walked outside the room, I was quickly called by the King and the servants, lunch was ready.
"Welcome back! Here's your lunch! I've prepared the best my place can offer. All our ethnic food!" He said happily. "Enjoy to your heart's contents, everyone!"
"Uwaah, so much food!" Brunhild was surprised.
"Hmm, I am hungrier than ever before…" Luminous said.
"Ah, this is certainly not made by Kireina but it still looks mightily tasty!" Ariant said.
"I want to eat that big crayfish!" Eriant said.
"Spicy sauce over skewered meat!" Fiere was fascinated. "Ah, I wish lady Elfina was here…"
"Such a feast! Thanks a lot!" Frank said.
Like that, we enjoyed the delicious meals. There was indeed a lot of flavors. They used tons of condiments in their food, spicy, sweet, citric, these three were the most flavors we felt while eating. While stuffing myself with the food, I decided to check on Yggdra and Shadrach. I should really get to evolve both of them right now.
Buuuut, once we're done in this feast for now. Frank was being interrogated a lot by the King, well, only a tiny bit. He was the most OP here that came out of the blue. His Cosmic Stones business was also quite strange, but once he explained things properly and upfront, the king quickly understood better.
"I don't know if I should believe everything you said honey, it sounds like half of it was made up, because it is a bit too ridiculous!" He sighed. "However, I can tell you're dead serious about this topic, so I won't say anything more than just that. Nonetheless, you want to know more about the Dungeon we've got nearby, huh? Well, the fish and other seafood you've been eating was the last ever haul we had there since two weeks ago- Don't worry, we've kept these little guys alive inside of barrels with the water where they were living. So they were still quite fresh."
"So that dungeon is… It is filled with water?" I wondered.
"Sea water to be specific, we cannot exactly drink that, its too salty and filled with nasty stuff. Even when we boil it, it still horrendous so we cannot really drink it at all." He sighed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"We usually took that water and used some special magic artifacts to evaporate it and get the purified water from the water's vapor, so aside from the Oasis, we had that second slightly more complicated way to get water…" He said while recalling those times.
"Nonetheless, that dungeon was also a treasure throve of resources. Crystals grow there by large quantities, from Water Spirit Crystals, Aquarium Ore, Aquamarine Jewels, and more, and of course, schools of fish and other sea creatures we can catch and eat. Not only monsters!" Oro said, sighing.
"So that dungeon is a Seaside themed one…" Said Frank. "That's something new for me, but alright. I think we can handle it."
"Indeed, the dungeon's name was Seaside Treasury, by many of us. It is one of our greatest areas of tourism and also where we got a large quantity of our resources, both monetary and food!" He sighed.
"Whole families of people specialized into going to fishing there have been unable to feed themselves now because of that big and bad monster that took over that place two weeks ago. It called itself the "King of the Seaside Treasury" and unleashed waves after waves of ocean water, controlling the monsters inside to do his bidding, he quickly ended turning us all into smithereens! Those that survived had to run away and tell everyone else…"
King of the Seaside Treasury… And if it can talk and control sea monsters, it is probably a strong monster, probably something like a "big shot" like the Swarm Queen, the Evil Dragon, the Giant Slug, and the Fiery Ant Queen. I suppose it is also working for the Genie if its so strong and appeared almost at the same time as the Slugs and the Ants…
Well, I guess we'll be catching a big fish for dinner.
