CH.504 My Birthday
And so, as the first month of the year kept advancing, eventually my birthday ca.
23 now, huh. Well, whatever. Not like that really matters.
My day was completely cleared, except for the daily maintenance tasks I took care of. But since I’ve been optimizing them, they only took about 15 minutes.
Other than that, I let the girls plan the day.
And it started with breakfast in bed. All four of my girls had made a dish of their own, so I enjoyed them all.
Alice had baked so fresh bread, and she even made custom flavored butter to go along with it. She also prepared so cheese to go along with all of that.
Her cooking skills have really improved since my evolution. We do have dedicated kitchen staff, but out of all of my girls, she is the one spending the most ti in the kitchen, and she will probably get the Cooking skill soon.
Cailie had made an assorted fruit platter from fruits from the CropFields. Kind of funny that I call floor 8 the CropFields considering the number of fruits growing there, but whatever.
Lua had mixed up a blood lemonade, or sothing akin to that. It is sothing she ca up with, and it was ant to not be at all like lemonade, just a perfect mix of blood and so other drinks. But it ended up kind of tasting like blood orange lemonade, at least to .
And Janina actually knew how to cook, at least with magic. In terms of human cooking, yeah, not so much. But since she used magic, she brought out so ham, bacon and other ats.
And since I have fresh bread from Alice, I was able to assemble so really nice sandwiches.
As a breakfast, it was nice. The at was a bit too salty, and Alice’s bread wasn’t quite as soft as what we usually have, but still, it was great.
As the day kept going, I received congratulations from all of the HoBase employees. So of them also handed gifts, but I knew most of them were waiting until the afternoon to give theirs, so I set the ones I received earlier aside, and waited on checking them until later.
No, they were not wrapped in paper. You think this world has wrapping paper?
Well, it actually does, but only the brown kind used on parcels and the like. Not the colorful stuff that you think of.
Most gifts here are either not wrapped at all, this is what most common people do, or wrapped in expensive cloth.
Or if you are , you just store your gift in a magic fanny pack, which is also a part of the gift.
Lunch was a big celebration. I had everyone on HoBase join in. Yes, even our current set of dhampir students.
We had food, we had cake, and it was fantastic.
I received a bunch of more gifts, and after the al, I began to look at what I’d gotten.
A lot of the stuff I got was what soone would call trash, but I personally quite liked it.
Handmade ornants, ‘good luck’ amulets and so on. Sure they are nonfunctional trash, but soone put effort into making it, so I liked it.
One of my favorites was a stone statue the dhampirs gave . It depicted myself and Lua, with Genesis Vampire Lord in his Genesis form standing behind us. And yes, it was a lifesize statue.
I decided I’d find a good place for it on HoBase, where I could display it.
Spoiler
Pilgrim of the Ice Barrier; Ally of Justice Reverse Break; Naturia Beetle; Fabled Lurrie; Thermal Genex
[collapse]
Pilgrim is … okay, I suppose. Good against powerful monsters, since he cannot be destroyed by battle, if the attacking monster has more than 1900 attack.
And Thermal Genex is decent. I like the attack gain, the burn damage is also nice. So while he could do more, he is decent.
Next pack.

HA02 2
Naturia Antjaw; dium of the Ice Barrier; Naturia Spiderfang; Mist Valley Baby Roc; Fabled Valkyrus
[collapse]
dium of the Ice Barrier is great. She puts a limit on how quickly my opponents can cast spells.
Naturia Spiderfang is cute, for a spider, but the limit it has is kind of a pain, so I probably won’t use it in combat. Maybe to produce so spider silk.
And Mist Valley Baby Roc is h. Low stats and an effect I don’t need.
Next pack.

Ally of Justice Reverse Break; Naturia Rock; Ally of Justice Thunder Armor; Ally of Justice Searcher; Ally of Justice Field Marshal
[collapse]
Nothing new here, next.
Spoiler
HA02 5
Ally Mind; Worm Noble; Jurrac Velo; Genex Gaia; Naturia Beast
[collapse]
Worm Noble is okay. Flip monsters are so of those monsters that I just don’t use enough, because traps are generally better. And Worm Noble really isn’t better than sothing like Mirror Force or Magic Cylinder.
Next pack.
Spoiler
HA02 6
Worm Opera; Jurrac Velo; Genex Spare; Flamvell Baby; Genex Army
[collapse]
Genex Spare is fine to have. Options for the tis I don’t have a Genex Controller on hand.
Next pack.
Spoiler
HA02 7
Naturia Rock; Ally of Justice Searcher; Jurrac Monoloph; Ally of Justice Reverse Break; Worm Queen
[collapse]
Worm Queen is decent. Kind of trash for , but I like the way she looks.
Next pack.

Pilgrim of the Ice Barrier; dium of the Ice Barrier; Genex Gaia; Worm Rakuyeh; Ally of Justice Field Marshal
[collapse]
Nothing new here, next.
Spoiler
HA02 9
Genex Blastfan; Ally of Justice Nullfier; dium of the Ice Barrier; Genex Furnace; Windmill Genex
[collapse]
Genex Furnace is very diocre for a level 5. It really should special summon itself if you control a Genex Controller, but no, that would just be too good.
Windmill Genex is fine. He gains attack based on set Spell/Traps, and can also destroy Spell/Traps.
Next, and last, pack.
Spoiler
HA02 10
dium of the Ice Barrier; Geomancer of the Ice Barrier; Flamvell Baby; Naturia Rock; Mist Valley Apex Avian
[collapse]
Geomancer of the Ice Barrier is situational, but fine. I kind of prefer monsters that force the opposing monsters to attack them though.
And Mist Valley Apex Avian is nice. Negates are good, so yeah. He is good.
Now, the rest of the Hidden Arsenal 2 can be acquired with Capsules, so let check out what I’m missing.
I was missing 14 cards, which is admittedly more than I was expecting.
Genex Turbine is fine. 400 attack boost isn’t much, but better than nothing.
Jurrac Protops gains 100 attack for each monster that is opposing us. Which can either be a good boost, or trash. Rember, real world isn’t limited to 5 monster card zones.
Mist Valley Falcon has good stats, but cannot attack unless I return a card to the hand. For just 2000 attack, that effect really isn’t worth it.
Worm Prince if okay. He does search out more Worm monsters.
Worm Linx is way too slow to do anything good.
Naturia Cosmobeet’s effect isn’t sothing I need, because unlimited summons.
Ally of Justice Cosmic Gateway just special summons itself, so it isn’t that amazing.
Fabled Grimro searches other Fabled monsters.
Genex Solar is kind of mid. Good stats, but the effect is kind of bad.
Dewloren, Tiger King of the Ice Barrier has one of the worst attack boosting effects. Just way too costly.
Geo Genex is super mid. It can just gain 2800 attack for the turn. Which is good, but too situational.
Jurrac Giganoto is great. Nice big attack boost to all Jurrac monsters.
Mist Valley Thunder Lord has another ‘return card to hand for 500 attack boost’ effect. It’s just … bad. But outside of the effect, it has nice stats.
And Naturia Leodrake is just a big beater. Which isn’t bad. And he looks … okay, considering that he is a massive beast covered in flowers, I can’t really call him cute.

And yeah. That is it for my birthday. I got a set completed, and had fun. And I will continue to have fun and enjoy the day, but you all don’t get to join.
So see you next ti.
