Demonite was a precious material, but the dangerousness it had was too much for us. Although I would had wanted to keep this mine for myself and see it grow over ti so I can get as much as I want, as they're an interestingly tasty snack for soone like , I decided to mine it all using [Mining] and my pickaxe, storing most of it for my own research and the usage of materials for high ranked Undead, who seem to all need so sort of high magic power material such as Demonite to work. I even saw "Demonic Monsters" in the Soul Grimoire's later pages, so in the future I might even be able to bring out powerful Demonic creatures even stronger than Undead, which is slightly frightening!
CLANK!
Crash!
However, at the third area I was mining, my pickaxe broke.
"Ah, shit…"
Demonite was an incredibly hard material, using the pickaxe alone won't do, it easily broke, and that's considering it is made of an extrely hard and condensed tallic material. Will I need to make a pickaxe out of mithril or sothing to get the Demonite by my own?
"Using the pickaxe might seem fun but let's hurry up for now."
CLAAAASH!
Lucifer's enormous fist clashed against the walls, the Demonite shattered and broke into tiny pieces one after the other. I guess we really didn't had any ti to play Minecraft for now… Ugh, I wanted to be the Queen of the Cave though!
"I guess you're right." I sighed, quickly shaping my own hands into giant pickaxes, and then materializing them into the hardest material I could turn my own phantom, resembling the hard as tal material of my own nails and bones.
CLANK! CLANK! CLANK!
I began hitting the walls with Lucifer at my side, as he was suddenly surprised I was now doing this with my own body. The Demonite easily began breaking down into pieces and I used Inventory to automatically store them the mont they fell down into the floor one after the other.
"Inventory!"
Ding!
[Items have been dismantled]
[You acquired]:
[Purple Demonite Crystal (A Grade)] x42
[Red Demonite Crystal (B Grade)] x30
[Black Demonite Crystal (S Grade)] x12
It seed like the Black ones were the highest purity of miasma, while the red were the lowest and the purple in the middle… Nonetheless, even the lowest purity was still a B Grade Ore, that was amazing by itself. If they weren't so toxic for life itself they would make for so amazing equipnt for anybody… Well, I can still use them to shit over my foes with Miasma itself. I bet even those Vampires would panic if I took out a sword made out of Demonite and slash their chest with it, heheh…
Like that, we continued mining and mining, until two hours have passed and we ended mining an enormous quantity of Demonite. In the way, we also found so interesting herbs that were growing in these areas, and mushrooms, both of them were adapted to the Miasma and thrived in such environnt rich in this corrupt and evil essence.
"Look at this weird herb, Master!" Partner brought yet another new herb. This one looked absolutely nacing, with the shape resembling an octopus but made out of black leaves, it had a very hard stem, almost as hard as stone
"Ohoo! This one's nad Black Shredder…" I said in surprise. "What the heck with that na- Uwah!"
Suddenly, the herb that Partner pulled out moved on its own, its leaves shaped into sharp blades and they tried to shred my hands into pieces. Now that's really painful... Well, it would. Thankfully that doesn't work for .
"It seems that my view of Miasma is slowly changing, I never expected things such as plants and mushrooms to thrive with Miasma, but I guess that if things such as Ants do, maybe any living being could eventually adapt, or only those that are very hardy." Lucifer analyzed.
"Yeah, I an… Maybe." I said while nodding. "I might be able to consu all these products because I am immune to Miasma, but it is kind of sad nobody else can benefit from it."
"Well, the stronger you grow the better." Said Lucifer. "Wait, can't I consu it too? And Takeshi and Laura as well?"
"Oh… Right." I said with surprise.
"Then a lot of people can consu it!" Partner said. "I rember that Takeshi and Laura still get so fevers from ti to ti, their bodies are still having a hard ti adapting. Maybe if you make them so potion out of these herbs they could get better? After all, perhaps what they need is Miasma, which they have not been able to take from anywhere."
"Oh… do you suggest that they might be like these ants to an extent, Partner?" I wondered.
"Kind of… I an, aren't they? If they need Miasma to live and need to eat it and all… I am sure they should love it and grow bigger. But so experintations should be done first, so we don't commit a mistake." Partner was showing her growth as she seed more and more mature while speaking. And even more, she had grown to be very careful and also intelligent in what she speaks. Although she has good ideas, she never forces into them.
"Sounds good." Said Lucifer. "Nom…"
Lucifer suddenly ate a whole black mushroom and chewed it.
"Hmm… It tastes awful, like boiled trash and mud…" Lucifer swallowed it.
After waiting five minutes, nothing bad seed to have happened.
With this we have more than confird he's immune to miasma, and…
FLASH!
"Oh!" Lucifer suddenly felt his aura of darkness growing slightly stronger. "These mushrooms are amazing! They sohow made slightly stronger… Maybe we should try cultivating them in secret…"
"Ahahaha… I don't know about that, but I'll see what I can do!"
And like that, we moved back to the camp, finding the stew made out of dicinal herbs already boiling. It was ti to have so nice dinner.
