NOVEL NEXT 47. Assembling
Ugh. It also fascinating.
First, it weird how accustomed I became to make Monster.
Even to the lint were I don’t have to pay attention most of the Time.
It’s as if I have an autopilot or similar.
I assemble the Skeleton with ease and bind the whole thing together with muscles.
Then insert the intestines and give it some attention to make it right.
After that, I lay the flesh and skin all over and fix it all with Organic Magic.
I can’t ignore the Process, but I am more in a trance-like state then actually focusing.
The Head is were I have to watch out for.
It’s really weird. Previously, I used organic Magic.
But now I do much if it by hand.
Inserting the Teeth or position the Eyes right, even the Eyelids.
I even use organic Magic in an obscure satisfies Manner.
The skin is glued on and even makes itself right through the use of magic.
It reverse to perfectly tape of something.
The Hard part are the jaw and the suction cups.
I wanted it to have much bite, so I paid special attention to the Maw muscles.
And the suction cups were simply unfamiliar to me, but I found out that I have to better insert them early on.
There is also the “problem” with all the muscles.
I think I can squeeze overall more performance out of them, like I did it with the jaw.
Or I can at least do some reconnecting.
But it’s all tiny thing.
Yes, they add up, but will it be worth the effort?
And I don’t mean it like minimising effort maximising profit.
Heck, I really didn’t thought of it like that, but now it’s also a reason.
What I meant was it being overkill.
To much performance for what the thing should accomplish.
Its like similar to sport cars which can do more then one really needs it be able do.
But they look nice. If I would have been rich in my last live, I would have probably bought one.
On the other Hand, Watches with unnecessary additions like diamonds are just weird.
They don’t even look good!
Just throwing Diamonds at the design and cover everything else in a relative expensive Metal.
Jewellery can look nice, but the looks aren’t necessarily reflected in the Price.
And then there are brand Clothes.
I hear that they are made form good Material and so on, are comfortable and etc.
But I can’t think how one should wear them without being conscious of it.
I don’t even know if a could were them at home without permanently thinking about it.
Its just to weird. And I don’t like the design of pouches and similar from them.
But that’s a personal preference.
Oh, ups.
I shouldn’t get distracted.
Otherwise the Salamander could miss a Claw.
On the other Side.
If I could watch the Reactions.
It would be funny to see some attentive People getting infuriated by that.
Should I make a Monster on Purpose with missing Symmetry?
But not obviously, more like one thing is off.
Like a missing Toe or finger, or one wing to much.
Something that doesn’t increase the Danger of the Monster but irritates.
Like having a coffee machine neither parallel nor at a ninety degree angle to either walls or platform it stands on.
A small detail one doesn’t necessarily but can’t be overlooked when one saw it.
Well, I completed the Salamander by now.
Let’s look at Skills for it.
…?
It isn’t designed as a Blueprint?
Why? I have a complete Monster?
… F*ck … F*CK!
I FORGOT THE MAGIC STONE!
Why didn’t I notice that it was missing?
Since I sued all the out neatly spread out and put it at the Corner?
Why didn’t I even put it into a dark corner if it is already so darkly coloured!
Was the Corner always this dark!
? Wait, nom it shouldn’t.
The rooms have something similar to a Games ambient Light.
No matter where, it’s always the same light level, and easy on the Eyes.
Even under the Desk isn’t it a bit darker.
It isn’t hard to guess what happened.
The Magic Stone created an artificial ambient Darkness or similar.
God dammit! Is that infuriating!
But no, o was Lazy!
With a checklist, even a Mental one, I could have avoided it!
But noooo, I rather thin o how easy it is now.
”Mistress, do you need something?”
”Time to calm down, or something to went my frustration on.”
”How about playing with your Dogs?”
”Ciler and Calida? Yes, that could help.”
Dalia teleported me to the open field.
I guess it’s really a good way to vent frustration.
But I should braze myself for the two of them.
*umpf*
”Hey you two. Were you good?”
*Woof* *Woof*
”Thats good. I a, currently pausing my project, so we have time to play.”
*Awooo* *woof!*
”Okay you two, anything you want to do?”
Calida looked at Ciler, who gave a goofy grin.
Then, Ciler closed his eye and took a stance.
He looks like he has constipation, but his Mana seems to move.
He seems to make and effort, as if he would break out in sweat by now.
And as he seems to finally give it the last push, Calida nudges him with her snout.
The result? A Fart made of Snowflakes.
”Ahahahahahahahaha.”
O gods, I can’t stop laughing.
The fart, the sound and Cilers expression as he realised the Betrayal.
It’s was mean form Calida, but it definitely cheered me up.
? Wait a minute.
”Hey, Calida. Did you notice my Mood was a bit sour?”
As an answer, she just turns away her head with an huff.
I know what that is called, she is a Tsundere!
As of sensing my thoughts, Calida began to paw my legs in protest.
While we two fool around, Ciler begins agains.
Before, he had all his Legs close to each other and buckled up while closing his eyes with a lot of force.
Now, he spreads his legs out and bows his head down, while his butt shows up.
Why does he now looks like someone with constipation even more?
Should I give him a Mana Control skill or similar, or at least a posing skill?
Well, it’s funny, and he trained it himself. It would be disrespectful to give him the skill now.
Mana Control at least. I won’t give him a posing skill for now when it’s so funny to watch.
At least that are my thoughts while I see what he tries to do.
He forms a Snowflake!
”Ciler, Congratulations! You did it!
Did you learn it yourself? Are you a Genius, you little Creature.”
I can’t stop praising Ciler while petting him.
Best Dog ever!
