91 Its a good day than any

Finding a good spot in this god forsaken red and dry land did a wonder to boost Iiana motivation and will. She was more than ready to settle her head down on the dry and cracked land and imagine it a damp and uncomfortable bed earlier but lo and behold! A perfect spot to loot.

Who would have thought that she would get a freaking spiked mountain that could easily passed as a fortress. It look so majestic, beautifully eerie and also reliably strong. It's actually like your typical villainous fortress with few flashes of lighting as background. Iiana stood there, gazing up with a satisfied look.

"This ought to be good spot" using fortification spell on her legs, and then a little bit anti gravity, she jump upward, barely touching the mountain before jumping back again. It took about twenty minutes before she reach the top on the mountain. Though, the mountain was dangerously spikey, thousands of it infact, she scratch her left cheek while thinking and levatating.

What she need was an even ground. It must be Clean and clear. But that spikes had a nice touch on it. All the while it could also act as a shelter for her from flying monsters. She didnt want to destroy all of it.

she took out a sword and swung it in one go, while controlling her strength. Everything except fifty of the spikes crumbled into tiny pieces.

Truth to be told, she was so tired and just wanted to lie down and sleep. But the prospect of getting a good and safe place in this god forsaken land? Well, that overrides it. Plus her excitement manage to temporarily dull it. She just need to make sure everything settled before closing her eyes and lose herself into a dreamland.

Opening the menu status, she open the online shop. Thinking and hoping that she could get some materials that would help her build good shelter. She didn't know how long she would be trapped here, might as well make the best out of it. Scrolling down the materials catalog made her chuckle. It reminded her of her daughters back when they were still alive on earth world.

"Mama, look at this!! I build a nice house in Minecraft!" My firstborn eyes were sparkling with excitement, pointing on my phone screen. The younger one keeps on nodding her head, agreeing her elder sister. I pat her head and sigh. How many time she said she built a house in that game for the past half and hour.

"I'm sure you did. Can you help me fetch that up?" I point my book near the drawer, I'm lazy to stand up from my seat, plus I need to type on the computer as long as my brain still squeezing out its idea before it ran out. But my little girl didn't hear me. More like choose not to hear me. I smirked.

"Dont make me come inside the Minecraft world and destroy what you build, oh my little minion" I said in sang song voice, still typing. That totally got the attention of my little girls. They knew I had account and could easily enter their world.

Both of them ran and went to fetch the book and look at me with big puppy eyes. I patted their head.

"Okay, lets play game together. Just give me ten minutes to finish this"

They instantly perked up and clapped their hands in excitement.

"Yayy" needless to say, I finished my work and did as I promised. They show me how they built their houses and castles ,as in plural. Huge and pretty. I began to understand their taste just by looking how they built their places. My eldest one built a rather large and extravagant house while the younger one prefer cute gothic style.

*******

And Iiana thought, one of the design of that house fit perfectly on top of this mountain. She began tinkering and building the house as she remembered. That one house that she build together with her little minions aka her daughters. She smiled and suddenly felt the pang of sadness. Its not that she wasn't sad on daily basis, being far away from them.. its just that she was too used of ignoring her own feeling. she focus too much from the external rather than her internal which she was quite aware of and couldn't help to hate it. Its like it was hard wire into her very being and she couldn't change it, no matter how much she tried.

It would be good if they had some kind of communication tools. Or maybe even a certain rounded white and blue robot's "door to anywhere", if you know what I mean. Just when she was about to finish it, heavy rain starts to drop non-stop. Bloody rain. No pun intended, it was a freaking red water rain that looks like droplets of blood. She started to feel nauseous seeing the red dry land become even redder. Its living up to its name- nightmarish realm indeed.

She ran into her newly made 'shelter' and quickly close the door. Summoning water and fire comes next to activate her hot bath, she peeled off her clothes and discarded it to the trash bin. Dipping inside the water tub, she close her eyes and try to organize her thoughts and feeling. This world had been messing with her senses and thoughts since she open her eyes and found herself in this fucked up world.

She will not ponder about heavy topic right now, not that it will help her current situation any better. but what she could and know she should do was.. she had to think how to survive another day with what she had. It wasn't that bad since she had the inter-dimensional online shop but it doesn't mean that she could keep on relying to that. Growing dependent on one thing, was never good for herself. She know herself better than anyone else. When she become too comfortable, she'll began to forget the power of hardwork and become lazier day by day.

Getting lazy in this unknown and fucked up place is a definitely no go. She need to improve herself and get used to this place fast in order to passed through the next level. She need to get out from there.

Scrolling through the inter-dimensional store, and seeing all kind of things gave her few ideas on how to increase her probability of survival. Defense, offense and retreat aka D.O.R.

She need a good defense. Shield-like things that easy to run or fly with. For offensive things.. she need an equipment that can be use with or without mana. Though her mana tank quite large, it was by no mean unlimited.

She cursed Uric for being a cheap ass god. She could probably blast herself out of this world if she got that OP passive skill. Maybe she could even go back to the earth and see her father and mother... She blinked couple of times, just to get rid of the dust hovering at the end of her eyelashes.

"I need two different types of weapon. One that could kill silently and another that can go boom and obliterate the big area." Iiana talk to herself, while tapping her lower chin. Being too loud means, she'll end up attracting those monsters attention. On the other hand, it could help her draw their attention in one place while she could run the other way around, something similar to grenade but in bigger scale. Call it as a strategical way to help you retreat.

"Mix it together with the devil seeds.. then..." her lips curved upward, a devilish grin can be seen on her face. Oh, she could almost taste another sweet invention ready to be born. Can she cue the evil laugh and call thunder as her background, just to make it feel more dramatic?
