At the end, Rita forced me to make bottles out of my wood constantly. I had the water to heal my HP and the automatic recovery also took care of it for the most part. At the end, Rita and Titan filled ten slots of their inventory with stacked 99 bottles of this water. I had mass produced a bunch of them, and Titan was surprised that it was possible to use his body shapeshifting in such a way. Ents are the counterpart of Dryads but males, so they got the same abilities that Dryads have in various things. Titan was easily able to extend his wood and shape it but had a very hard time shaping it into precise shapes like I did.

Maybe I had a talent for it because anything he tried to make came out very rough. But whenever I imagine something and made it out of wood its shape is almost always perfect to how I imagined it… Maybe it has to be with my good memory and imagination? Well, whatever's the case, I might help him at visualizing this and other things in the near future. I also ended saving a lot of this water on my own inventory, and Acorn did as well for his own potion creation. There was a big source of it that seemed to never deplete, but we didn't know if the dungeon would disappear or not after completing it by defeating the final boss, so we decided to just take as much as we could for now.

The mission did said the dungeon would disappear if the Players involved in the quest died, so I don't know if it will be the same if we win or not. I would assume it would disappear, right? There's no point in keeping such a rich area with many resources, wouldn't it be too nice if that was the case? If the game has some hint of balance I would assume it wouldn't do such a thing at the very least!

After gathering the water, we moved forward into the dungeon, we continued through it by using the Mini Map that auto filled itself. We found two groups of small mushrooms in the way, they were over twenty per group, but they were all low-level mushrooms with Level 5 "leaders". We easily defeated them. I was able to see Titan's abilities as well. He was strong physical fighter who had the [Unarmed Fighting Technique] Skill from the Druid Job Class, which seemed to be a mixed class between physical fighter and invoker of beast spirits. I also saw the amazing beast spirits he could invoke; they were strong and could easily crush monsters! However, the summons spent too much Mana. Thankfully we had potions from Acorn.

"Go, Blazing Lion!"

"GROAR!"

A roaring lion emerged out of an explosion of flames that Titan summoned, it had around two meters of height and was furiously rushing towards the mushrooms, jumping over them and gnashing them with his jaws. The blazing claws slashed and burned through the rest of the slimes, easily killing most of the group. His summon were so strong! I think its because he's very high level compared to us… Wait, are we being carried? I didn't noticed it but now that I think about it, he's sweeping the floor with everybody and we are just easily getting the EXP from the Party Share…

Ding!

[Silver] Level has increased from Level 2 to Level 3!]

Silver is already Level 3 and we had just been walking for almost ten minutes! Meanwhile, with the boss EXP, Belle and Loki ended reaching Level 9 and 8, so they're pretty strong. Meanwhile, I am 80% done with enough EXP to reach Level 12!

"And done! Well, the drops from these mushrooms barely cost any money… I should just throw them off." Wondered Titan.

"W-Wait! Titan, give them to me." I said. "Walking Mushroom drops are used for food, I can cook mushroom soup and grilled mushrooms with them. Where do you think we got the mushrooms from the stew you ate?" I asked. Titan quickly felt a bit shocked.

"I-I see! Maybe I should start seeing everything as a potential ingredient… Seeing everything through an item standpoint is not too good. After all this game let you interact with even the smallest of items, it is obviously that mushroom caps dropped by mushroom monsters can be ingredients for food… My bad, Planta." Said Titan.

"Don't worry about it. I'll teach you how to use those mushrooms for several recipes in the future." I said. "Anyways, don't you think you're… carrying us a bit too much though?"

"Carrying?" Titan wondered, quickly realizing he had been slaying most of the monsters for us while we had been mostly earning EXP while doing nothing but following him. "Ah! My bad… I've been killing everything, haven't I? It is hard to adjust to a party… I am too used to just kill any monster in front of me by myself."

"Eeeeh? It's not as if it's a bad thing, you're complaining too much here." Said Rita, looking at me with a cocky smirk, and caressing the big woody arms of Titan. "This handsome gentleman will carry us all the way to the boss easily! Do we even need to do anything? Isn't it the best if we just grow stronger without doing a single thing? Heh…"

"Yeah but that would just make the whole game an AFK Idle Game or something…" I sighed. "I also like to interact with the game so… Titan let us take care of the next wave we find, just support us."

"Alright! I've realized I am way too over leveled… But I didn't realized you two liked challenges in the game. I suppose I've underestimated you a bit… Seeing how Planta has a production job class…" Said Titan.

"W-Well, I initially disliked it but- Huh? Look, there's a big treasure chest to the other side of the map!" I said, pointing at it from afar.
