Chapter 3: Leveling my babies
I started with giant bee (her default name) and dropped her a yellow prism stone. The giant bee took the prism stone and just floated in place. Seconds ticked by.
"Could it be. . .she doesn't know what do with it?"
When I touched her with my stylus I was horrified with what I saw.
{The monster is cultivating! Do not interrupt, abrupt interruption of cultivative states can lead to death}
"Nooooooooo!" I yelled. The faaaaaaaaaa-k why?! Why?!
Out of all things, why did it have to be cultivating game?! Why can't it be like an rpg? Cultivation takes so fucking long!
Uggggggggggggh! I banged my head on the table before cooling down.
I suppose cultivating is more realistic, this is supposed to be a real world after all. . .I can't expect things to happen instantly like in an rpg. Cultivation is where living things meditate, with prism stones they draw energy from stones to speed up the process.
I mind as well feed the other monsters their stones. After feeding them all, all the monsters went in to cultivative states. I watched for a while, becoming more and more bored by the minute.
Leaning back in my chair, I gazed up at the ceiling. Ah right! The training facility! Oh wait, I used most of my funds creating the maze, I should probably lay off of the spending for a while. . . I leaned back again.

My mind drifted back to my old life. The songs and performances I did during my idol debut.
To kill time I danced and sung, maybe it's because I didn't have a body, but I wasn't tired.
Finally when I ran out of songs to sing and dances to do, I recalled those cute and elegant angels that came to repair the FS before and decided to mimic their twirling curtsie.
Their elegance was forever engraved in my mind, they weren't like the voluptuous Seraphia, they were petite like me but rather than trying to be sexy or taken seriously they made a killing of being cute and elegant.
I couldn't help but admiring them. I practiced over and over again. I didn't have anything better to do.
Ding!
I ran over to my desk.
Looks like the jack-o-lantern has finished his cultivation. I just blinked. He grew some arms and legs but that was it.
I became curious. I fed him an earth prism stone in the hopes that he would grow some more. Then I went back to practicing my curtsying.
Ding!
That was fast. Who finished this time?
"Eh?"
It was jack-o-lantern again. . .
This time he grew a neck and torso as well as genitalia. . .
"Eugh. . ." I didn't need to see that.
The jack-o-lantern covered his crotch in response, two red patches appearing on his pumpkin head. He looked bashful.
"Eh. . .can you hear me?"
". . ." The pumpkin boy just shook. He looked pitiful. Hmmm. If I recall correctly there was a clothing store in the town right?
Clothes don't cost much. I bought him a long sleeved shirt, underwear and some pants.
"Here, put those on."
But the jackal only put on the underwear.
"Um, can I have another stone?"
There was something cute about the way it timidly asked me. Being able to communicate with this thing- that's something you could never actually do in video games! I felt a bit excited.
Since I had already gave it a fire and earth stone, I gave it a dark prism quartz this time. His small glowing eyes blinked up at me.
"Another."
". . .Are you sure you can handle two?"
The pumpkin boy climbed atop a small boulder, and nodded. So cute!
Crossing his legs on the small boulder the pumpkin boy began to cultivate, I was going to go back to practising my curtsying when he suddenly began to levitate.
Ding!
I blinked. Who was it now?
Ah, that baby giant bee, A crown was on her head and her winds had grown larger. I fed her a wind prism stone this time.
Ding!
I got a notification from the haunted valley location but Jackal is still cultivating. But. . .what happened to the angry sheep? The shirt and pants lying on the ground are now missing too! I was moving my stylus pen across the screen when I spotted a horned bush.
". . ." I plopped a dark prism stone into the bush and it rustled. It's as I thought. I was tempted to drag him out of there using my stylus but I didn't want to scare him.
I lied on the ground for a while, when suddenly I remembered I could surveil the other floors of the labyrinth.
There was a party that came when I first started right? Let's see how they are doing. . .
Lvl 10, 117
It seems they already cleared 117 lvls. That can't be right. . .I tilted my head. How is that possible? Did they find a floor pass that made them skip a couple of floors? I consulted my guide for information.
