Monarch Of Solitude: Daily Quest System Chapter 14

Advertisement

Rino looked at his daily quest window that updated itself once more.

===

Daily Quest #2 (40% in progress) [Chain Quest]

Objective: Build 10 bricks.

Tutorial here.

Reward: Textile Crafting Skills. Side Quest available upon skill unlock.

===

Seeing how there was a 20% increase in progress since yesterday, the lich wasn't in a rush to proceed with any more crazy side quests. However, he was eager to claim his reward now that he had plenty of materials.

Hemp, in particular, was a very useful resource for building things. He started considering future projects that involved it.

But first! Rino had to claim that suspicious mystery mine.

===

Side Quest #2

Objective: Gather the materials.

Cotton - 20/20 pods

Flax - 300/100 stalks

Hemp - 601/500 stems

Silk - 226/5 meters

Tutorial here.

Reward: Unlock location for an undiscovered mine.

Claim your reward here.

The moment Rino claimed the mine request, knowledge of the undiscovered mine's new location was shoved into his head.

From above, Ark and Phil watched as the lich fumed over his lack of privacy and the headache that came from shoving knowledge through a system. The Gods didn't really care. It wasn't a problem. Rino's body was chosen specifically to be very robust. No amount of pain would kill it. The current small world wasn't powerful enough to take down a lich, and even monsters wouldn't be able to kill an undead like him. High-speed regeneration and mana recovery are passive abilities given to Rino's new body for that very reason.

Of all the resources this undiscovered mine could be, Rino wasn't expecting it to be a clay mine. Apart from pottery, Clay was practically useless! He was a lich. Liches do not eat. Unless he wanted to make fancy flower pots, there was no need for clay, right? What were the Gods thinking?

Before he could lodge a complaint to the peeping Gods, Rino received a new side quest.

===

Side Quest #3

Objective: Prepare the materials for weaving.

Tutorial here.

Reward: Uninterrupted sleep for 8 hours.

===

For a while, Rino couldn't breathe. Wait, he didn't need to breathe. However, the feeling was still the same. It was overwhelming.

Ever since his introduction to this crappy afterlife treatment, the Gods were finally giving him something decent! Didn't they know that sleep was the ultimate form of release from the world's tension? FINALLY!

Ark didn't think that Rino would be so happy over a reward like this. However, he wasn't going to question Rino's life priorities. Everyone was a little odd in some ways, some more so than others. More importantly, giving Rino a temporary ability to sleep was going to provide them with eight hours of blissful peace. It was a win-win situation that benefited everyone.

With his sleep on the line, Rino forgot all about his ambition to be lazy. To be more accurate, he was fired up to achieve the ultimate form of laziness. Eight hours of uninterrupted sleep... When was the last time he experienced such a thing? Rino couldn't recall. For years, he never had a proper sleep. All he had were naps. Even the hours he spent sick in bed, his sleep was never peaceful.

Now that he had all the materials he would ever need, it was time to start making these raw plants into something sewable.

Rino clicked on the tutorial, and as expected, the tutorial explained the step by step process of extracting plant fibre for things like hemp and flax. On the other hand, cotton and silk were slightly different. They do not need the soaking, peeling and drying processes. If anything, the cotton only required combing, twisting and weaving.

Rino did the math. Twenty cotton pods would make stuffing for at least six to seven comfortable pillows. He didn't want to waste it all to turn the cotton into cloth when they made good mattress stuffing. Even an undead should sleep in fashion. The most Rino would do is create a cotton towel with what he processed. He could use a bath from time to time.

Rino looked through the tutorial. The easiest to prepare was silk. All he had to do was weave them into a huge fabric for his sewing purpose. Additionally, he could dye the threads in different colours if he wanted. Rino wasn't going to argue. He was simply going to dye it black. Black was the colour of the night but more importantly, it helped keep more sunlight out.

There were many dyes back in his world extracted from natural materials, with the most common being woad leaves that his royal blue magician robes were often dyed in. However, Rino didn't know what to do about black dye.

"Humph! Black is the colour of the devil. I guess we can give him the recipe for making dyes if he really wants that black dye in his next quest," Stephanie said after hearing Rino's concerns.

Ace smiled and spent some divinity to send Rino a message.

[The Gods have heard your request. A recipe for black dye will be given for the next side quest.]

Pleasantly surprised by the generosity, Rino nodded and started working on the material preparation. It was still many hours till midnight. Rino wasn't taking chances. He would finish preparing all four fabric materials at the same time.

There was very strong sunlight, and Rino paused to think. With a sun this strong, he should take advantage of it. Didn't the Gods give him a clay mine's location? He should abuse it at once to make his life easier.

Water seemed to be a thing that wasn't readily available in his current location. The nearest source of water was a lake in the forest. Rino also didn't want to dig a well here for that. Hence, there was only one logical solution.

He would go crazy with clay and use it to make a huge reservoir for soaking, washing and bathing purposes. Maybe he had a use for clay after all.

Ignoring the side quest, for now, Rino excavated a huge area several meters underground and fortified the soil above with hemp trees he replanted after uprooting them. There was no harm in growing hemp in the area. The plant was surprisingly useful in many ways.

Magic made everything easier, and the reservoir space was created very quickly. Rino simply dumped the excess dirt into the fertile fields. The farm could use more dirt anyway. Now, it was time to get some clay.
