Versatile: Alternate World

Chapter 869 Journey With The Mansion As Your Mount



Almira took a bit of time to find an empty field to land the mansion and put it on a complete stop temporarily to ensure that the legs works well and will not break down after the initial walk. But the field is currently populated with monsters, and so Almira ordered me.

"Manato, it seems our current landing area is full of monsters. How about cleaning it up while I find a good place to fully land our mansion?"

"Alright. On it."

I left the basement and went back up to the surface. I asked anyone who wanted to join in for the cleanup below the ground and Labo decided to accompany me.

Since the monsters are low levels, they are weak and not at all dangerous. So after a bit of killing the monsters, they are gone in a flash. And as we finished cleaning up the monsters in the vicinity, the mansion came to a full stop, and soon descended to the ground and retracted the metal legs, and landed to the ground, integrating itself into the field.

"I still can't believe I am currently riding in a mansion like this. If I was still with the elves community right now, I wouldn't even experience this kind of luxury at all," Labo chuckled.

"Ha, neither am I. After all, we can only see things like this in fiction back in my world so this is also a fresh experience as well."

"Indeed. But I am glad as this is a better experience rather than staying in our hidden village. Having to travel around using your house is just something I wouldn't even expect. Anyways, let's go back. Everyone would be delighted that we will be bringing these carcasses back with us."

"Yes. Let's go."

We returned bringing the corpses of the monsters. Because they are edible monsters, we just butcher them and use their meat as our food for source for later. I left the butchering process to everyone as they are already in the know about what to do with it.

As for me, I returned to the basement and check up on Almira. When I arrived, Almira is already inspecting the machine and the legs, checking every nook and cranny to ensure that not a single damage was present after the initial test.

"How's the result?" I asked as I approached Almira.

"So far, so good. Not a single error and not a single fault have occurred and not a single damage was present as well, which means we don't need to change anything. We can add a few upgrades here and there but so far, no need to do so, and those upgrades are just optional. We can continue our journey using these as well."

"How about crossing bodies of water? Are there some plans on that?" I asked since most of the borders of the continents are either separated from each other due to the sea or deep rivers flowing in between.

"There are some plans for that but for now, I am still in the planning stages and I needed to experiment with a few more stuff related to the buoyancy of the materials and how to keep the mansion and the soil that we carry afloat without being eroded and washed away from the waves. It's gonna be a long process but the progress is there, so don't worry. But for now, we will have to stay clear of them and will have to think of ways to cross the border without the need of using a teleporter for the time being."

So technically, there are plans for the mansion to act like a ship but because it was not part of the first plan due to its complicated ways and structure, it was not yet implemented. But knowing that Almira is already testing things out to see whether it is possible or not is something else. Sooner or later, we might even be able to cross Aquagius without many problems in the future.

"Anyways, we will be departing in a few hours. Since we are in a clearing and there are some monsters roaming around, it's best we stock up some supplies and food as there might be times we will have a shortage of food especially since there are many of us and your followers and pets also have huge appetites as well. We can't keep on relying on the marketplace to buy food most of the time and I suggest you limit the usage of Leona as well. You were pretty well known to own Leona before when you were Bladeheart so it's best you limit on using her as a way of transport, like only using her when going to the Dark Sea to gather supplies."I think you should take a look at ραΠdαsnovel.cοm

Almira has a point. Since Bladeheart owns Leona, it would be weird that someone else owns her in the process. Her suggestion is pretty helpful.

Due to this, I discussed this matter with everyone.

"Looks like this will be a proper adventure then, not just fulfilling quests left and right alongside endless monster slaughter then. It's like pure survival now," Riko is excited.

"Nah, for me, it feels like we are now more of a fugitive. Not only do we have to wear masks to not get discovered but also to avoid using the signature ways that made us well known to the public. And the fact that we also have to act carefully when shopping and mostly rely on our own ways to find food, it's going to be tough in the future," Sora expressed her own opinion.

"A fugitive huh? It does feel like we are escaping the law and are trying hard to not get caught indeed. I only saw these plots on TV but now that we are experiencing it, I think I kinda like this kind of living. It's pure adventure and besides, not only does this make a good journey for us, but it feels like we are also on a tour without money with us so we have to rely on good old ways to gather our means to eat and drink," Mother who is clearly on board with the idea was more excited by this matter.

"Haha, you still don't change at all, dear wife. But I do indeed think that this is a nice experience to enjoy and I strongly believe that this will be something that we can only experience once in our life. Compared to our life back in our world, this isn't bad at all and it's more exciting than the vacations we done back then as well," Father grinned and give a thumbs up to my mother and the two made a fist bump like they were some kind of comrades agreeing with each other. I guess this is due to them being buddies back then that Father and Mother find it comfortable to be doing this.

Even others agree as well that despite the situation looking like a bad thing, it seems the new ways of our life are some kind of excitement that everyone is excited about.

"If that is the case, our survival expertise will be a tremendous help. We might not have done these much since we were transported on Earth but now that we are back here, we can use that as an advantage for all of us," Alena happily declared.

"Oh yes. Our survivalist experiences are going to be a valuable asset indeed. We will help in any way we can, you can count on us!" Renatta nodded vigorously.

"That's reassuring! Then, we will be in your care, guys!" Mother happily said, clearly excited about the days to come.

"Alrighty then. Since we are tasked to gather items right now before we depart, we should scout the nearby clearing and perhaps the nearest forests as well for fruits, herbs, and wild vegetables we might see. This will be a great way to finish things up!" Renatta excitedly raised her hand which was then followed by everyone cheering.

ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm I am quite glad that everyone is happy right now.

And since we are limited in time, we immediately performed our duties. Those who prefer to search for food in the forest decided to form a group with a few focused on searching while some will focus on defending themselves while they are busy searching. The others including myself are more a hunter so instead of searching anywhere, we instead went and hunt for monsters. As Almira noted, we have to hunt a lot to ensure our pets are satisfied. With Pandora's two pet snakes and my two pets as well as my followers, it's clear that we will have a lot of food intake in the future.

In the end, we gathered lots of monster carcasses and we butchered them. We stopped hunting when the other group returned carrying sacks of different herbs, wild vegetables, and fruits. What Labo and Renatta said about being good survivalists is not just a brag.

As night slowly falls, Almira announced that we will be moving once more. That night, a feast occurred outside the mansion and everyone started to happily eat and party for the night. Without any neighbors to worry about, we laughed and danced to our heart's content.

After all, things like this will be something of a rarity in the future. So while we can, we will enjoy the simple things that we have.
