Every day, after finishing work, I pull my daily free gacha.
I haven't spent any DP (Dungeon Points) on paid gachas, and I haven't used any DP for dungeon creation yet. I've been spending my time carefully planning, sitting in front of my computer, taking notes, and calculating the DP I'll need. Compared to the other three Japanese creators, I think my approach is closest to Kondo Masashi's.
Since I've been pulling the free gacha every day, I now have six *Nukko-Nyans,* including Hisui and Inaho.
…Yeah, six Nukko-Nyans.
"Why do I keep getting these?"
"That's some crazy bias LOL"
"I wanted to say it's a lie, but yeah, I see this every day"
"You're totally different from the other creators who are collecting all sorts of monsters"
"You're like a one-man cat collector LOL"
Today's gacha pull gave me my seventh Nukko-Nyan. I haven't used any paid gachas, so I can't say for sure, but I have no idea why I'm getting so many cats. I mean, sure, I like cats, and I'm happy to get more Nukko-Nyans, but creating a dungeon with just them is becoming a bit of a problem.
Anyway, here are the seven Nukko-Nyans I've pulled so far:
- **Hisui** (♀): Longhair (Silver Tabby) / Motif: Maine Coon
- **Inaho** (♂): Longhair (Red Tabby & White) / Motif: Maine Coon
- **Hassaku** (♂): Shorthair (Ginger Tabby) / Motif: Japanese Cat
- **Mugi** (♀): Shorthair (Ginger Tabby) / Motif: Japanese Cat
- **Dango** (♀): Shorthair (White Cat) / Motif: Japanese Cat
- **Sumomo** (♀): Shorthair (Brown Mackerel Tabby) / Motif: American Shorthair
- **Kohaku** (♂): Longhair (Blue Point) / Motif: Ragdoll
"I mean, seriously, who creates a species where you specify longhair or shorthair and include fur color? The god who made Nukko-Nyans must love cats. And why are the motifs so easy for cat lovers to recognize?"
"Exactly!"
"It's like cat heaven LOL"
"But they're all healers!"
"A dungeon, or should I say, a cat café? A Nukko-Nyan café…?"
"I'd totally visit that!"
"I want to be buried in Hisui's fur"
"I can't tell Hassaku and Mugi apart"
"A healing facility disguised as a cat café…?"
"I'd keep coming back just to feel better"
"I'd visit way too often LOL"
"By the way, Tsuchikata-san, you're already buried in Hisui's fluff LOL"
"Well, they're cute, so whatever."
I couldn't help but smile as I pet the adorable Nukko-Nyans, purring happily as they nuzzled against me. The comments on my stream were flowing way too fast for me to keep up, and the viewer count was ridiculously high. As a side effect, the subscriber count and view count on my *WeTube* channel had been skyrocketing, but living in this world, I had no use for extra income.
"Ten-pull gacha… Nah, I need to save my DP for the dungeon. I'll stay disciplined and avoid gachas until I finish the dungeon. Right now, I'm a no-spending player. I have to conserve my DP."
"Forcibly free-to-play LOL"
"You're like someone hoarding all the free gems from logins and events LOL"
"I just need to create a dungeon, release it, collect DP from all of you, and then I'll upgrade the place like crazy. I'll turn it into a masterpiece of a dungeon!"
"By the way, how exactly do we give you DP?"
"Yeah, how do you collect DP from us? There wasn't any explanation from the god about that. Did you get any info as a creator?"
"Tsuchikata-san is completely buried in Hisui LOL"
"Inaho's getting big too!"
"Seeing all these daily Nukko-Nyan pulls makes it easy to see how big they're getting compared to each other"
"Oh, I caught a comment I can actually answer. You all should bow to my eyesight, this is a miracle. I'll explain DP collection now."
"Finally caught a comment! Tsuchikata's eyesight at work!"
"She finally did her job as a streamer!"
"Okay, so here's the help page. Let's see… yep, it's displayed on the stream. Honestly, how does this technology work? God powers are insane. I've decided to stop thinking too hard about it."
"We can see it!"
"Ahh, I see now"
"God powers are wild"
"I guess it's God, so no helping it"

**How to Obtain DP (Dungeon Points):**
1. 1,000 DP is distributed daily.
2. The dungeon creator earns 10 points per person who uses the dungeon. However, if the same person uses it multiple times in a single day, it only counts once.
3. The creator earns additional points based on what the dungeon users do inside the dungeon (e.g., gathering resources, monster materials, exploration). The rarity and time spent affect the points. The details of the points earned are only shown to the dungeon creator.

"Okay, as for number three, the details visible to me are different from what's displayed on the stream, so I can't really explain much there. But the gist is, the more you all use the dungeon, the more DP I earn. Think of it like invisible money for us creators."
"Wait, are we really seeing different info from you?"
"God powers, man!"
"It's super helpful that Tsuchikata shows the help screen like this"
"That's basically how creators earn DP. Since I haven't started running my dungeon yet, my only income is the daily distribution. It's a good thing basic necessities like food are free for now. By the way, remember how this place was just a blank white room at first? I spent DP to make it concrete and add wood flooring. I went with the cheapest option, by the way. I can't say exactly how much DP I spent, but I'm saving up because I want to make a high-quality dungeon. The plan is almost finalized, but there are still a few details I'm working on. Of course, as a fan of all things nerdy, I want to obsess over the design. And as a composer, I refuse to use the pre-made BGM God provided. Don't get me wrong, the tracks are good, but I can't ignore my pride. Also, it saves DP if I use my own."
"Here comes the fast-talking!"
"I can't keep up with all the info LOL"
"Once you have enough DP, change the interior again!"
"Oh, and did you know? I can use an appraisal skill to check the stats of my Nukko-Nyans. And, get this, I can also appraise myself. Here's my appraisal result."

"See that? Look at my skills. Dungeon Creation makes sense because, duh, I'm a dungeon creator. But what's with this *Absolute Defense*?"
"Whoa, humans have skills too?"
"Are we gonna get skills when we start using dungeons?"
"But what the heck is *Absolute Defense*?!"
"Also, why is composing a skill? LOL"
"Wait, Tsuchikata has her own description? LOL"
"Does that mean we'll get descriptions if we get appraised too?"
"They gave you *Absolute Defense* to keep you safe from harm, I bet!"
"God's super protective of the creators LOL"
"Here's the thing—there's no skill encyclopedia, so I don't know the details. I tried asking about *Absolute Defense,* and the response I got was basically, 'It blocks anything that's considered an attack.' So, yeah, I'm more confused now than ever."
"God's so vague, like, what even counts as an attack?"
"I bet God's standards are way different from human ones"
"I give up on trying to understand this"
"Do all dungeon creators have *Absolute Defense*? I watch the other three Japanese creators' streams sometimes, but they're always just working on their dungeons through their consoles, so I haven't seen them appraise themselves."
"They probably haven't thought to appraise themselves"
"Why did Tsuchikata even think of it?"
"Didn't Okita and Saito both try yelling "Status Open!" earlier, and nothing happened?"
"So it's not like that?"
"Do we have to appraise ourselves to see our stats?"
"Kondo-san is watching Tsuchikata's stream right now"
"Kondo-san just appraised
himself!"
"We can share information through streams! Victory!"
"Breaking news: Kondo-san has *Absolute Defense* too"
"Breaking news: Kondo-san has *Absolute Defense* too"
"Breaking news: Kondo-san has *Absolute Defense* too"
"Breaking news: Kondo-san has *Absolute Defense* too"
"Oh? Thanks for spamming the same message so much. Even my weak eyesight caught that one. So Kondo-san has *Absolute Defense* too, huh? Maybe all dungeon creators have it?"
"I guess they need to make sure nobody attacks the creators, right?"
"I could totally see some people wanting to replace the creators and take their spot"
"There's gotta be people who'd try, right?"
"Anyway, I've got most of my dungeon plans solidified, so starting tomorrow, I'll actually start building it. There are two ways to create dungeons: through the console, or by going inside the dungeon yourself. Kondo-san seems to be building through the console for now, maybe adjusting things in the dungeon later. Okita and Saito are probably doing the same, though they seemed confused by the god's instructions at first. As for me, I plan to make the framework with the console, then handle the finer details in person inside the dungeon. I can't show you guys the inside of the dungeon, but I'll leave a few of my Nukko-Nyans here, so you can enjoy a *Nukko-Nyan Observation Stream* in the meantime."
"Here comes the fast talk again!"
"Take a breath LOL"
"Got it, Nukko-Nyan Observation Stream is back!"
"The cat lovers will be giving a standing ovation again LOL"

"Speaking of which, can I even pull anything other than Nukko-Nyans?"
"Right?!"
"For real!"
"Totally, right?!"
