《Sun Collector》Chapter #52 Return trip
Advertisement
As I looked down from the final firework I saw madison lean in towards me and then we kissed. "That was amazing," she said to me. "Thank you I made a ring just for this moment.
"When you leave the outpost Im going to be sad." she said to me.
"Ill be right back I'm just going to talk to some people and buy some stuff and live in my old house," I said
She threw her arms over my shoulders and said "Im going to miss you that much."
"A kiss goodbye?" I asked
"Yes sir" she said while leaning in and giving me another kiss.
After that I turned and walked back to my house. The next day when I got up I headed for the gate. As soon as I arrived there I was greeted by grand elder.
"Im here to escort you" He said to me.
Back to the sandbar I go, I thought to myself. "Will you be escorting me the whole way?" I asked
"Yes, your to valuable to die. You are part of humanity hope to live off the sand bar." He said
"I hadn't thought of it that way I thought to myself." I guess I had made great contributions to the outpost. But my goal had never been build humanity up.
Grand elder seemed to see through my thought. "You've done a great deal to helo this outpost thrive. I hope you can return as soon as possible.
"Think of this as me taking a vacation," I said
"Okay then let's go, also I know that firework last night was you," Grand elder said.
"It was me, I went on a date," I said.
"If your looking for someone to go on a date with rose is single." he said "I already have someone but thank you," I said.

And with that we setoff down the path to the sandbar "Ill carry you if we come across any heartbeasts that are to dangerous." Grand elder said.
As we ran down the path together the forest to the left and right of us. I saw a bird fly above our heads it was blue and went very fast. That was the first heartbeat I had seen with traveling on this path. As we continued farther down grand elder got less nervous the closer we got to the sandbar the less danger we were in as the king heartbeasts lived deep in the forest. While we were almost there a deer ran across the trail in front of us. Luckily it was a ten year heartbeast and not really a threat. We continued on like normal. The death rate for this trail was very high that's why the outpost was always lacking people and people died in the forest while trying to gather food.
As soon as I saw the bridge back to the sandbar I celebrated we had made it and nothing had gone wrong. Grand elder stopped at the bridge and said "we're here this trip went better then I could have expected it."
"This is my home" I said to grand elder. "Make sure to come back quickly you always have a home with us" he said.
"I will there's a lot to see on the sand bar now that I can roam anywhere." I said
"Here take this" Grand elder said while handing me a bag of sea coins.
I wanted to stop him and give them back. But he said "What you have done for the outpost is priceless. "Take it I'm grateful for what you have done."
"Okay' I said as I grabbed the bag tightly. "While your here visit with the deep sea fisherman." he said to me.

"Yes I will" with a pat on the back I was off going down the ropebridge leading to the sand bar. By the time I arrived and looked back grand elder was already gone.
First things first back to my old house I still had the deed of sale. By the time I arrived at my home it was night. I pushed open the door and the silence that ensued was errie. This was where one of the saddest things in my life had happened I made my way back to my room. My house in the outpost was so much nicer. I had grass on my front lawn whereas here it was all dirt with a thin layer of dust on top of the compact soil.
I decided to sleep for the night. I crawled into my old bed and slept.
The next day when I came out I heard a familiar voice "Your back?" I knew who it was instantly.
"Yes and I came with a present" I said."What kind of present mister" she said.
"The mana kind let me feel your heart." I felt a hand lift mine and place it on a chest. With that done I poured mana into her chest. Soon I heard a thumping as her heart changed. She gave a little moan it seemed like it was painful. I instantly picked her up and laid her on a bed in my house and then went outside to keep accumulating mana.
It took about an hour for her to come out again and from her complexion, I could tell she was fine.
"Q arent you happy I did that for you? Now your father is going to like you even more." I said
"He is?" she asked doubtfully "I do feel different," she said to me.
"Let me feel your heart again?" I asked sincerely
"Okay last time," she said to me. She didn't want to go through that same experience again.
"Now it feels like I can stay invisible forever" I wondered what I had done. I knew I had jumpstarted her heart. She must have went from a mana consumer to a mana producer. This was great news for her. I wondered how her mana regrowth ring would work.

Dungeon Core Chat Room.
This is a slower-paced "experiment and dungeon building" web novel that tries to use the idea of peer-to-peer communication with Dungeon Cores instead of Dungeon to slave monster communication to break up the detailed dungeon building. Rank 1 description: (minimum met for system initialization...detailed description as follows) Each race was given a system by the gods to make up for their shortcomings and balance their place in this world. Humans: Abysmally bad at understanding and using magic unable to use more than the lowest of magic were given the "Skill System" magic in the form of premade skills with use, study, and mastery tied to experience. Elves: Intuitively understand magic and have long lives leading to vast knowledge and skill in their chosen fields. However, as a species, they have nearly zero sex drive and less than low fertility, so they were gifted the "World Tree System" with experience gained through the care of natural areas – gifting the chance of children to increase their numbers without dirty copulation. All “natural” or “wild” monsters are given an "Evolution system" designed around killing and consuming as many creatures as possible, slowly increasing strength and, at thresholds, allowing mutations to alter them multiple times. Dungeon cores are different. Unlike humans, they can see, manipulate and live off mana. Unlike Elves, they naturally crystallize after extended periods of time in high mana level areas. However, they cannot easily move or communicate and typically go insane without companionship. As a species other than the odd eccentric they are unimaginative. Brute forcing solutions without the drive to truly innovate. Thus they have been gifted with the "Dungeon Connection System" a magical version of the internet accessible by their peers that allows them to barter and sell: bait, traps, monsters, and knowledge, as well as entertain each other with “adventure streams” using exciting recorded battles and humorous reels of arrogant chumps biting off more than they can chew to often fatal effects. This is the casual story of a dungeon unluckily spawned far from potential adventurers forced to innovate beyond its peers to find its place in this world. Rank 2 Description: Justification. I've been on a dungeon core kick for months and while I love the genre – it's sparse with entries. Often the forced conflict gets repetitive and frantic solving of threats "power levels" the protagonist to god levels to progress the plot – taking away the nice steady progression fantasy I'm looking for. (Progression in this story is linked to how strong of monsters/traps/whatever he can create not his "level"...this is demonstrated by some of his newer monsters beating his older monsters not with discrete "this monster has 10 attack this one has 40") Additionally, the focus on 3rd parties with their drama takes away from the reason I’m reading dungeon core novels in the first place – I'm looking for magical crafting, experimentation and kingdom building – not defence from higher and higher levelled enemies looking to steal/destroy/control the MC. This novel is kind of just me writing the story I wish I could read. I like thinking about the experimentation that can be done in fantasy settings using 'mana' as an excuse to make up rules and try to keep them internally consistent. IE once I define how a rule works, I'm going to commit to keeping it – no breaking hard truths I've given when it's convenient, even if it backs me into a corner. Hopefully, that should make the story interesting to read even if it's SOL and less action-oriented. There will be problems to solve and a clear progression in strength (of created monsters and knowledge) however due to not wanting to force conflict for the sake of conflict the general theme will be closer to slice of life with few action sequences and no overarching goal so please keep that in mind when picking this up as the genre is not for everyone. Finally, I have a clear goal of what I want from this story (not an endless romp but a series of arcs and then a conclusion that's a couple of dozen medium-sized chapters long) I want to commit to finishing it or at least bringing it to a point of rest. I hate all the engaging stories that stop with a “hiatus” indefinitely so in the event I lose motivation I'll work to end this even if the ending becomes rushed/unsatisfying just to give a sense of closure. I’m planning on including several polls in terms of direction and taking feedback heavily into account if I get enough readers (but may choose to ignore it if it deviates too far from the direction I want to take this as in feedback like: “The MC needs a cartoonishly evil arch-enemy that wants to enslave him and force the mc to pump out magic items” or “the MC needs to make a body and learn teleportation then live with humans” will get shot down without consideration.)
