By following the path he made in heading North, Argent returned to the location he started in. Along the way he conversed with his system, having it retrieve edible food for him to eat, and sort materials within his inventory.
While snacking on a juicy yet standard looking apple, Argent created paths in the other three of the four cardinal directions. His end goal was to map the island and have his system calculate its size while also logging where water sources flowed from and suitable material harvesting areas.
The process, although long, was satisfying to Argent. Exploring a fantasy land, no matter how small or secluded, had been a dream for him. Luckily, there were no large predators, only small animals existed on the floating island he found himself on.
He found the island was full of rare materials, at least so his system said. This stimulated his desire to get crafting, however he opted to finish his task at hand. With the system, he will have all the time in the world to create everything he can ever imagine.
Sure, he may die of old age… But this is a fantasy world! There must be a way to create a life extending elixir… surely! Even if there is not a method Argent found himself determined to find a way, even if he will have to sell his soul to the system…
'To craft until the end of days and beyond… What a life!' Argent thought. Perhaps his mindset had been shifting ever so slightly as he found himself bound to the system, trapped in another world with little to cling to.
'What should I work on first? Staples such as weapons and armor? No, I don't need those right now. Rather, I'll work on a new workshop and create it from scratch. A kitchen for preparing meals and purifying water!' Argent thought.
Humming a merry tune, Argent soon completed his map of the island. The system automatically marked locations with detected resources and points of interest for him, thus he just had to inspect these areas now.
Moving towards one that the system had marked as having abundant traces of iron, Argent mined out a section of land using his inventory as his pick. After a bit of sweat and a lot of digging, Argent found he had dug himself deep into the terrain.
Laughing slightly at his situation, Argent dug a diagonal tunnel to return to the surface. He repeated this process for several more locations before using the realm shift function to return to the craftaholic system world.
