《Diary of Erica Kron》Day 129
Advertisement
Today the enchanters made a breakthrough. They figured out a method to make the whole set up more effective over a much larger range of potential enchantments, in effect allowing them to create something less complex and having the same result. And less complexity means that it is cheaper to maintain.
Unfortunately, I had significantly less success with my own project. I don't think that plants innately have any kind of resistance towards enchantments. And there are no plants available for sale that would resist enchantments without also repelling mana entirely. This means that it probably doesn't exist and I can't evolve something into something that has that ability without doing it manually. But I don't know how to do that, enchanting simply isn't something I understand. And it would take quite a bit to reach a point where I could create an enchantment killing plant.
I'll keep at it though, it isn't like I have had zero success, just much less than I had hoped for. I'm sure there is something that will work, I'm just overlooking it.
Another solution might be building large structures that spread the effects of the counter enchantment over a large area. It would cost a lot less mana, but it would also introduce a single point of failure, which is probably worse. Still might be interesting to look into.
Other than that I spent my downtime wandering around in the tunnels, observing the interactions of the living art. It is interesting to see how they have all settled into their own roles, like how the villagers give up some of the iron food they grew to the soldiers when they come by. And they really are growing the iron food, like the iron isn't coming from anywhere. They are growing it in an iron vein, yes, but they didn't take it from said vein. Also, the stone soldiers eat it the same way I would eat real fruit.

Extermination Order
So it turns out that anime got something right: If you get hit by a truck, you're going to another world. Dennis became subject to that unknown quirk of reality when crossing a busy city street (despite having looked both ways). But that was quite some years ago. He's been around this new world 'Nassur' a time or two and knows how to live a good life. He also knows that adventuring friggin sucks. So, what is a man to do in a fantasy world with a shoddy leveling system that constantly suggests getting more XP, and a condition set by the gods that you must make the world a better place? Pest extermination. But reality is often fickle. Perhaps one day it is only rats, another, mechanical centipedes with lasers. Maybe the Dark Lord needs a shoulder to cry on because his dungeon simply can't be ready in time for the adventurers he likes to do battle against. Another poor soul from Earth could appear just as dazed and confused as the day you'd first arrived, requiring a good long talk about 'hey, what the hell is this, man'. And maybe... just maybe, that thick book of owed favors comes back to haunt you. For a man who desires a peaceful, productive life, Dennis can find it rather difficult for a week to go by where something doesn't go awry. This series originally started on r/HFY, [Link] but I decided to post it here since people are so positive about it! Posting rate is, and likely will continue to be, rather inconsistent.

By Myself
The diurnal monsters worship the day, while the nocturnal creatures rule over the night. But nothing opposes two folks more than living on the same land at the same time. Humanity prospered until it reached a pre-industrial age where the largest cities observed the first long chimneys made in brick whereas the smaller villages still had to cut the forest's logs with their axe.
