Day 422

Today I walked around the section where the giants live with Kanami and blacksmiths instead of staying in the «Dwarf Block».


I was looking at huge skyscrapers, countless rows of ten-storied buildings where giants live, and huge buildings beyond that, it is a masterpiece.

Not only from the toughness of the building materials used, but also the fact that there is no worry about a collapse because of the excellent construction technology usually only boasted in a castle.


Although it is spectacular how sturdily a simple house is built, it is a dangerous zone where people are sometimes crushed even if it is not intentional, as it passes under the feet of the giants who are the main inhabitants of every part of the city, except the «Dwarf Block».

I was not in any danger of being stepped on, but the Smith was in danger from the way of the others are walking, and I am tired from having to move in a wide range while paying attention to every direction.


So for mobility, I produced a Black Fomor for us to travel altogether, but it still looked like a dwarf among the giants in the marketplace - about the same size as a human to us. Sitting in a seat-packed tourist backpack made of wood, metal and monster material with a mechanism put in - so that it could hold a person from any tribe of five meters or less - we decided to go around the store appropriately prepared.


At first we entered a weapons shop nearby.

A huge weapon matching the physique of the giant is displayed cooling in a slurry, even a dagger is huge compared to us. When it comes to any kind of big sword or spear, it is like looking up at a small building.

Even if you take a dagger as a souvenir, it would be huge with just as big of an impact.

As for weapons, it is not very practical, as the size is too different, but it may be fun to take it as a material. Or is there demand as an interior?


After the weapons shop, we walked into various food shops.

Huge ingredients were lined up, but I was drawn by a certain smell, which led me to buy a tomato the same size as myself and ate it. It's huge, but there is no way that it could be called tasteless. It had a sweet, fresh taste that was accented with a hint of sourness, I completely devoured it with relish.

There are too many kinds to make a single choice, they were all in a huge box that made it look like a small mountain. The discount we gained through negotiation and complaints of low quality were like every other marketplace. even the expression of the giants going around are the same as us.

For the time being, I bought a lot of ingredients I was interested in and kept going around.


Next, we to the stalls lined up along the road for dishes to eat along the way.

I guess they caught some of them from the ocean, we were enjoying grilled fried chicken from the "Sea Dragon Sea Serpent" baked in a sour sauce and cooked like a fried chicken kebab in big chunks.

The size is too different, but the seasoning is still good, even the Smith ate more than usual.

Of course, there was no food left in the end. There are a lot of big stalls, and I will stop eating when I grow tired.


In the «Dwarf District» we tasted the ingredients from the area and also studied the cooking while we talked to the giant chef that was working there.

Although, the cooking group seems to be unable to reach halfway over the counter in the Giant's area.

Regardless of the struggle, if it is real or not, there is no need to worry because it is necessary to pay attention to various things.


Anyway, we took in the abundant magical essence of the 【Mysterious Dark Continent】, especially through all of the delicious foodstuffs that are rich in both taste and nutrition.

Although I bought all of these ingredients, I wonder how much time it will take for all of this to run out?

The fact that enough foodstuffs to feed dozens to hundreds of people, or more, are piled up like mountains, but we must not avoid using up various types, otherwise the item box may end up bursting.


While worried about that, after the ingredients I went to buy one of the surprisingly huge jewels for ourselves.


It is natural fit for giants, but there are also many items for for human beings, including big bracelets and earrings, all of the luxury goods are mixed up with the jewels larger than a human.

Several types of jewels are from little farther away, like the 【Earth Dragon King】, imported from the underground city «Granba Glass» controlled by Granvados Leptonaval. It seems to be a dropped item from a powerful underground monster from the 【Underground Great Cave Temple Danner Cam】.


One jewel, how much will it be worth if you take it outside.


There were many kinds of jewels mixed in with the drop items, but although their size was large, it was only about the size of a thumb.


It gets even smaller as it's polished, but is still a reasonable price.

It can even becomes a material for magic items, it only has value as a jewel.


Even so, why not leave it as a gem bigger than a human?


It is also a special [God] ranked-item only obtainable from the [Mysterious Dark Continent].

I bought several dozen in secret and I think that I will sell then when the time is right.

“四百二十二日目”

 今日は≪小人街区≫ではなく、カナ美ちゃんや鍛冶師さんなどと共に巨人達の暮らす区画を散策する。


 巨人達の暮らす十階建ての建物や、それ以上の巨大建築物などが無数に立ち並ぶ巨大な摩天楼は見ていて圧巻だ。

 建物に使われる建材の強靱さだけでなく、優れた建築技術があるからこそ倒壊の心配も無いそれ等は、一つ一つがまるで城のような威容を誇る。


 ただの家屋でも見応えがあるものの、≪小人街区≫以外は主な住民である巨人達の足元を通るので、故意ではなくても踏み潰される事もある危険地帯だ。

 俺は踏まれても問題ないだろうが、流石に鍛冶師さん達は致命的だし、全方位に気を張りながら広範囲を動くのは疲れてしまう。


 だから移動にはブラックフォモールを一体生成し、市販されていた巨人にとっての小人――俺達と同じくらいの大きさのヒト種。五メートル以下の種族まで含まれる――を乗せる機構が組み込まれた木材と金属とモンスター素材で作られた座席完備の観光用背嚢に座って、適当に店舗を回る事にした。


 最初は近くにあった武器屋に入った。

 巨人の体格に合うだけの巨大な武器がズラリと陳列し、短剣でも俺達より巨大だ。大剣や槍の類にもなると、ちょっとしたビルを見上げているような感覚になるだろう。

 短剣をお土産として持ち帰っても、巨大過ぎてインパクト絶大だ。

 武器に関してはサイズが違い過ぎるのであまり実用的ではないが、素材として持ち帰るのは面白いかもしれない。あるいはインテリアとして需要があるだろうか。


 武器屋の次は色んな食料店に入ってみた。

 巨大な食材が並んでいたが、匂いに誘われ、俺と同じサイズのトマトを買って食べてみる。巨大だが味が大味になっているなんて事は無い。瑞々しい赤色のそれは甘く、ちょっとした酸味がアクセントになり、ペロリと食べる事が出来た

 種類が多すぎて目移りするが、どれも巨大な箱に入れられて小山のようだ。大きさ以外は聞こえてくる値引き交渉やら宣伝文句、行きかう巨人達の表情などは俺達と変わりない。

 とりあえず、気になった食材を山ほど購入して回っていった。


 その次は道路沿いに並ぶ屋台料理に手を出した。

 大海から釣ってきたのだろう、タレを塗られてほどよく焼かれた“海亜龍(シーサーペント)”の蒲焼きや、巨獣の肉を焼いた唐揚げやらケバブのような料理などを楽しむ。

 サイズが違い過ぎるが、味付けは良く、鍛冶師さん達も普段以上に食べていた。

 もちろん、食べ残しはない。大食漢が多いし、最後は俺が食べるのだから。


 ≪小人街区≫ではひたすらこの地の食材を味わい、料理を研究していた飯勇一行も、ここぞとばかりに食べては巨人料理人に話しかけていた。

 飯勇一行も流石に巨人達の区画までは中々来れないそうだ。

 戦闘はともかく、そうでないなら色々と気を付ける必要があるのだから仕方ないのだろうが。


 ともあれ、【神秘豊潤なる暗黒大陸】の豊富な魔力を吸い上げ、濃厚な味と栄養を蓄えた美味なる食材で溢れている。

 ここぞとばかりに買い揃えたが、果たして全て使い果たすのにどれ程の時間が必要になるのだろうか。

 一つでも数十人から数百人以上分はある食材が、山となって積み重なっている現状、色々と放出せねばアイテムボックスの枠が埋まったまま使えないのは避けねばならない。


 などと心配しつつ、食材の後は個人的にも驚かされた巨大な宝飾品を買っていく。


 巨人用なのだから当たり前だが、一般人よりも大きな腕輪やイヤリングは勿論、高級品にもなればヒトよりも大きな宝石が散りばめられた品も多い。

 宝石の類は少し離れた場所に在る、【地龍王】グランバドス=レプトナバルが支配する地下都市≪グランバグラス≫から輸入されたモノや、強力な地底モンスターの生息地となる【ダナーカム地下大空洞神殿】のドロップ品らしい。


 宝石一つ、外に持ち出せばどれ程の価値になるだろうか。


 ドロップアイテムの中に混ざる宝石の類は今までも多かったが、その大きさは大きくても親指くらいしか無かった。


 研磨すれば更に小さくなるが、それでも相応の価値がある。

 マジックアイテムの材料になったり、純粋に宝飾品としての価値だ。


 それなのに、ヒトよりも大きな宝石となればどうか。


 それも【神】級の中でも特殊な【神秘豊潤なる暗黒大陸】の品だ。

 一先ず数十点ほど見繕い、時期を見て売るなりしようと思う。
