* Once you find the coordinate, do not enter the location, instead, grab a shovel and dig in the overmap
* The cursed treasure map must be unscrambled before it can be read, because when read, the map crumbles into pieces and is gone before the location of the treasure is known.

Maps

Map

The map is a consumable item, and when read it will generate a random Nefia nearby. However, it is not effective in areas surrounded by the ocean.

Maps are sold at bookstores and by NPCs on the Seeker's Keep 2F.

The danger level of the generated Nefia is random for commercially-produced maps, but for crafted maps it is a fixed value based on the materials used (and their value).

Treasure map

The treasure map shows where the treasure is buried, and if you dig in the corresponding place with a shovel, you will find a buried treasure chest.

  • In order to find treasure, you need to have the treasure map in your inventory.
  • If you only check the coordinates of the treasure and then forget the map at home or leave it in your tent, you won't be able to find the treasure chest.
  • Once you find the coordinate, do not enter the location, instead, grab a shovel and dig in the overmap
  • The cursed treasure map must be unscrambled before it can be read, because when read, the map crumbles into pieces and is gone before the location of the treasure is known.
  • You can move around the world map while viewing up to one treasure map.
  • The treasure map also shows the Nefia that are present when you open the map. This can be one of the clues, but if there is a Nefia update, you will need to reopen the map, otherwise there will be differences in the scenery.

Recipes

A memo containing a crafting recipe. Reading recipes you have learned will strengthen your recipe level.

They may be found randomly in treasure chests, or specific recipes may be sold by NPCs.

There are two types of recipes: one that grants the corresponding recipe, and one that randomly grants one recipe from a specific category such as cooking or furniture.

Skill books

When read, you will gain experience points for the skill. When given to a pet, the pet will learn the skill.

Currently in Beta, this is one of the few ways to teach your pet skills.

In addition, the ★Secret Experience of Kumiromi, available from the ★Statue of the Harvest, will earn the player 1 feat point, or 3 feat points for the pet.

There is a limit to the number of Kumiromi's Secret Experiences that a player can read, and you can read one book for every 10 levels, or to be more precise, (total feat points - 1/10) for every book.

Please be careful when calculating, as the bonus from Kumiromi's Secret Experiences is not added to the “total feat points” at this time.

Plans

Get home skills and policies. Since the acquisition of a skill is independent of each land, it must be read in the land where you want that skill or policy to be acquired.

Note that reading the same plan multiple times on land that has already acquired that skill or policy will have no effect.

Title Deeds and Licenses

Title Deeds and Licenses can be purchased from a Scrivener.

name effect remarks
★Land Deed If you read it on land that does not belong to any faction, you can acquire rights to that land. Each purchase doubles the price.
★Relocation Deed When read on the world map, one property owned by a player can be selected and moved to that location. The land feats that the property has do not change when it is moved.
★Advanced Adventurer License Allows you to earn more than the maximum fame value (5000) Random nefias are generated at the 51st level of danger or higher. Stored in Key Item after use.
★Void Exploration License Allows you to enter the Void. Stored in Key Item after use.
★Illumination Engineer License Allows the color of the light emitted by the lights to be changed from the middle click. Stored in Key Item after use.
