Day 81-90/Day 87

Day 87
Today, the mining work that Asue-chan has been leading until now ended with the excavation of two gigantic spirit stones. It's not like we stopped mining because we secured enough or something like that, the spirit stones in the mine have been depleted.
Originally, there was a variety and quantity of spirit stones because of the mine's close proximity to «Velvet's Dungeon », to be exact because they liked Velvet, and even after Velvet's death, the spirits remained because of the existence of the administrator of the dungeon, Returner. However, Returner has already died. Therefore, the spirits don't have any reason anymore to stay here, thus spirit stones stopped appearing.
However, we have already gained large quantities of them, so it's okay. We gained a huge profit thanks to «Velvet's Dungeon», thinking of that, I offered a prayer for the two.
After examining the two huge spirit stones that Asue-chan excavated, I proceeded to consume them.
【Ability learned: Photon Ruler】
【Ability learned: Photon Tolerance】
【Ability learned: Gravity Law】
【Ability learned: Darkness Tolerance】
The 2 huge spirit stones - the [Light Spirit Stone] and the [Darkness Spirit Stone] - possessed purity, size and beauty unmatched by any other spirit stones we excavated before. Although learning a gravity-manipulation ability from eating a darkness spirit stone may seem puzzling at first, but when you think of dark holes it starts to make sense. Besides, "Gravity" is much better than a vague thing like "Darkness", so I don't have any complains.
After that, I oversaw the morning training, and later the progress of the renovation works of the base. Then I started making the preparations to set out from the forest. Since I had promised Redhead and the other human women that I'd take them to a large human settlement the first time we met, I decided to bring them with me when I set out.
The first thing I needed to do was secure a way of transportation. I could just use the familiars, but I have pawns that don't need rest, so I decided to us them.
First, I mass-produced black skeletons using【Lesser Summoning: Undead】. Then, I disassembled their bodies, collected the bones, and lastly used【Bind】to create a vehicle made with the bones as the material. It took a while to create.
In the end, it looked like a large centipede with a rectangular loading platform on the back. I coated it with a large amount of my clones as a measure against sunlight.
When I finished, it was already past sunset. After a nice dinner, I informed Redhead, Blacksmith-san, the Sisters, and Alchemist-san that we'll be leaving to a large human settlement soon.
"Are you kicking us out?" This is what they asked me when I told them that we're leaving, so I explained to them that I'm doing this to protect the promise I gave them the first time we met, to do some business, etc. I also told them to decide whether they want to follow me or not at that time. We continued talking late in the night.
