Greetings.
I am a man in a suit who has fallen into the world of Minecraft.
Last time, in Episode 17, I found a shipwreck by the sea.
Inside it, I found diamonds, emeralds, and a treasure map.
On that map, there was a red X.
Once I saw it, I could not stop thinking about it.
So this time, I follow the treasure map and go looking for buried treasure.
A suited man is now going treasure hunting.
The treasure map is in my left hand.
Just holding a map makes me feel a little more like an adventurer.
I am still wearing a suit, of course.
That part has not changed.
Following the Treasure Map Toward Buried Treasure
With the map in hand, I leave the village.
In the past, just stepping away from the village made me nervous.
But now that I have found treasure inside a shipwreck, I cannot ignore the red X.
First, I move through the forest.
The leaves block my view, and the ground is not always easy to see.
Even in the daytime, this kind of place makes me uneasy.
Still, as I walk while checking the map, I feel as if I am slowly getting somewhere.
Am I getting closer to the red X?
Or is it still far away?
I keep moving through the trees.
Past the Forest, Toward the Stony Shore
After walking for a while, the view opens up.
The sea.
And a pale, stony shore.
The moment I see the ocean, the treasure hunt begins to feel real.
A shipwreck.
A treasure map.
A red X.
And now, the shore.
Surely something is around here.
…That is what I want to say.
But Minecraft is not always that simple.
The X is still farther away.
So I keep walking.
Next, I reach a place that feels like a taiga.
The trees and the scenery have changed, and I feel as if I have come a long way.
Along the way, I also gather a few materials that might be useful.
Even on a treasure hunt, walking around with nothing ready feels dangerous.
I may look calm in this suit, but I am quite serious inside.
Digging Around the Red X
After following the map for a while longer, I finally reach a place that looks right.
Near the red X.
By the sea.
On sand.
Is this the place?
I hope this is the place.
I dig.
And dig.
The map tells me the general place, but it does not place a sign saying, "Here it is."
Maybe here.
Maybe a little to the side.
Maybe below.
I keep digging through the sand while thinking all of that.
It is quiet work.
But maybe that is exactly what treasure hunting is.
A Chest Appears Under the Sand
And then…
There it is.
A chest.
It really was under the sand.
This makes me very happy.
I found the map, walked far from home, dug through the sand, and finally uncovered the chest.
The adventure that began at the shipwreck has connected to this moment.
Now I open it.
My hands feel a little nervous.
They are an old man’s hands.
The Heart of the Sea Is Inside
Inside the chest, I find several treasures.
The Heart of the Sea.
Iron.
Gold.
Diamonds.
Emeralds.
Even a Potion of Water Breathing.
This is truly buried treasure.
The item that catches my eye most is the Heart of the Sea.
Even the name sounds important.
I do not really know what I can do with it yet.
But the name alone makes it feel worth taking home.
Suddenly, my inventory has something mysterious in it.
Here I am, holding the Heart of the Sea.
The treasure map is in my left hand.
The Heart of the Sea is in my right hand.
The ocean is behind me.
This feels like a real adventure.
The man who once fell onto a tree is now standing by the sea with the Heart of the Sea.
Minecraft moves quickly.
Heading Back with the Heart of the Sea
I found the chest and obtained the Heart of the Sea.
That is a very big result for today.
But this is not the village.
It is not the castle either.
After finding treasure, the next important thing is bringing it home.
In OjiCra, that part matters very much.
This time, I followed the treasure map, crossed the forest, walked along the shore, and reached the taiga.
Then I dug through the sand and found a buried treasure chest.
Inside it was the Heart of the Sea.
There were also iron, gold, diamonds, emeralds, and a Potion of Water Breathing.
The map from the shipwreck really did lead to treasure.
Next, I want to bring the Heart of the Sea back and think about what it can do.
What will it lead to?
What kind of adventure is waiting after this?
I have found another thing I cannot stop wondering about.
That is all for this time.
Greetings.
