Ch.81 Wear as Much Layers as You Can, Even if It's Harder to Move

Hello, good morning Sun. How are you?

The sun visible from the window is shining brightly today as well.

It's sunny again today around Marathos, and the temperature is perfect for outdoor activities.

I look at the digital clock and see that it's 9:06.

I must have been very tired because i slept for a long time.

"I must have been sleeping like a log after lying down."

I go to the sink and activate mist water, spraying my skin to moisturize it, and floating a face towel close to dry it.

I also spray mist water on my messy hair and comb it through with my fingers.

"My appearance is... this should be fine."

I went to bed without brushing my teeth yesterday, so my mouth feels a bit uncomfortable. I'm going to brush my teeth and refresh myself.

I take out a disposable toothbrush and a fairly large tube of toothpaste and brush my teeth with it.

There are no small toothbrushes, so I'm holding a human-sized one in both hands to clean my teeth.

The head is too big for me, so I can't move it around in my mouth that much. It's all good though because it helps me finish brushing my teeth quickly.

My mouth is a bit foamy because I let out too much of the contents of the tube, but that's just because it's foaming up more than usual, even more than when I was human.

Holding the toothbrush in both hands and moving it around as hard as I can, I move to the room where the bed is and turn on the TV.

『It's cloudy. Next is the weather information for the areas surrounding Marathos. The information displayed on the screen is the hourly weather.』

『Don't point your gun at me, buddy. Do you believe what he says? There's no way I'm his friend. Think about it.』

『Now add the seasonings you made earlier. Bring to a boil over medium heat and it's done. Place it on top of the cabbage you put in earlier.』

『Well done, Bakuongame. I'm counting on you, Monkeydepal. Grass headbutt towards the stomach! ...Damn, they dodged it. It can't be helped, this is a gamble. Go.』 (TL : my best guess is pokemon rip-off)

『How curious. A swarm of metallic ants is moving around, trying to build a nest near the town. Ah, some explorers are heading there. I think they will be exterminating them soon. There may still be other swarms out there, so if you are a resident living nearby, please avoid going near the gate as much as possible.』

Metallic ants. Those monsters are tough and nasty. But they make good armor.

Now that I finish brushing, I go to the sink and fill a glass with water and rinse my mouth. I'm not planning on staying here two days in a row, so I decided to check out.

However, I don't want to throw away that toothbrush and toothpaste after just one use, so I go back to the bedroom, pick them up from the table there, and put it in my bag.

I then take out the keychain I received yesterday.

"How do you make something like this?"

This item is handmade by Mimia and is filled with various thoughts, and will have an effect when worn.

White flowers, glitter, and hearts. They're just too cute for me, so I attach it to my bag.

The lobster clasp makes the process easy and it takes less than a minute. The cute keychain adds a touch of style to my bag.

I had this keychain appraised, and the flavor text was quite long.

The item description is full of private information. It says that maybe Mimia-san is... About her brother... She seems like a heavy-hearted person.

Now that it's my property, it's up to me whether I want to have it appraised or not, but given the content, I felt a sense of guilt for having seen it, or perhaps the feeling you get when you accidentally discover an unexpected side of a friend that they don't show in front of you...that's what I felt.

The flavor text is created by AI, so you can't decide the text yourself. It's something you can only see after the item is completed.

I've had items like this in the past that had the creator's feelings written on them, but I wonder what criteria they use to decide what to write on them.

By the way, there is no limit to the number of weapons, armor, or accessories that can be equipped.

For example, you could wear 3 watches on each arm, or wear a cap and then a helmet on top.

To take it to the extreme, you could wear 10 rings with different effects on each finger, or cover your entire body in piercings.

The equipment on the status screen only has one each of the head, torso, arm, waist, and leg accessories available, so you can't equip any more than that. That's what you might think when looking at it, but in reality, that's not the case.

You can equip as many as you want anywhere, and they will still provide their effect as long as they are not removed.

If you attach an accessory to something that is already in the accessory slot like I did with my bag, it will still be reflected on the status screen like this.

===============================================

You can see that a new accessory item has been added, and that I am now equipped with a keychain.

The same thing happens if you wear something that isn't listed in your equipment list to begin with.

If the AI ​​determines that you have equipped it, it will be properly reflected and you will be able to receive the benefits.

Even if it's a keychain that is put on a bag, since it is attached to an item you are wearing, the system will judge that the keychain is essentially something you are wearing.

This is what is shown when I appraise myself while I'm wearing my bag, but if I unequip my bag, the keychain would follow, the item's name will disappear from my equipment list, and I will no longer receive its effects.

"Well then, I guess I'll get ready to check out soon."

It's getting late, so I gave up on having a delicious breakfast here and decided to head to the cooking guild. My body never gets hungry anyway.

It would be weird to just make dessert for Sakidori Midori-san, so I thought I might make breakfast for myself as well.

With that in mind, I reach into my bag and check the ingredients I have.

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

〘Home Appliance Item: Digital Clock〙

A clock that can be placed on a flat surface such as a table and have a size that can be held in one hand.

The watch receives radio waves at regular intervals to correct the time, so the LCD screen always displays the correct time.

Some models display the date, day of the week, temperature, humidity, etc., and some have an alarm function.

You can place it on the ground and maximize the volume to lure monsters in. You can also blast it on monsters with good hearing, temporarily reducing their hearing.

〘Consumable Item: Disposable Toothbrush〙

It is used to keep your mouth clean and your teeth healthy.

They are often taken on trips or kept on hand at accommodations.

Each one is individually wrapped and is basically thrown away after one use, making it very hygienic.

A tube of toothpaste is often included as well.

The handle is plastic and the bristles are hard. It can also be used as a brush for certain monsters.

〘Consumable Item: Disposable Toothpaste〙

A paste-like medication used that comes with a toothbrush.

When used while brushing your teeth, it removes stains, and depending on the type of toothpaste, it can also help prevent tooth decay, bad breath, periodontal disease, etc.

It comes in a small tube, making it lightweight and easy to carry.

They are often individually packaged with disposable toothbrushes.

This type of product often has a mint flavor, which leaves your mouth feeling refreshed.

Mint-flavored toothpaste is one of the green slime's favorite foods, so if you have it in your hand, it will come to you.
