Chapter 5 : Let’s build a house
The next thing I knew, I was surrounded by three warriors.
“What do you want?”
“Hey, you trash! What a waste of a fine log for a lowlife like you!”
“We’ll put it to good use. Just leave the logs and go away!”
“Don’t do that. Your supporters are watching.”
“You’re an idiot! Do you think that hurting one of the people in special training class is going to ruin your reputation?”
“If I hurt you enough, maybe my supporters will be happy! Gah ha ha ha!”
“I didn’t mean it like that, but …….
I felt sorry for you guys if you embarrassed yourselves in front of your supporters as soon as you entered the school. ……”
“What do you mean!? We are warriors!
There’ s no way I can lose to a jobless man like you!”
I grabbed my axe and took a stance.
It’s not the way you hold it when you cut a tree, but the way you hold it to fight a person.
“Your profession may be warrior, but …… I’m an excerpt at axe combat,”
“If this is what you want then come at me.”
“Shut up, you bastard!”
The warriors swing down on the iron axe, and I swing my stone axe in a side-swipe to knock it off its side.
Zudokaaa!
Battle Axe User skill, “Weapon Destruction”.
The iron axes that received the blows of the stone battleaxe explod one after another like cookies.
“Ehhh!?!”
The warriors start shouting like they are in a nightmare with the remaining of their iron axes in their hands.
“What the hell is this? What does this mean?”
“I don’t know! But what are we going to do? My precious axe is ruined!”
“If they find out that we lost, our class is going to be ……!”
“Damn it! I’m going to ……!”
“…… What then?”
I thrust my stone axe at the feet of the warriors. That was enough to make them scream, “Hii!?”.
And then they fall on their knees at once.
“Yoo ……, please forgive me!”
He was on his knees with all his might, as if he had abandoned all shame and outward appearance.
“I’m so sorry!”
As I watch the warriors flee away, screaming, my body begins to glow.
Then a window appears in front of me.
“You’ve leveled up!”
I was so happy that I couldn’t help but exclaim, “Oh!”
“I’ve leveled up again. Was it for chopping down the tree and punishing the warriors?”
Oh, now there are more jobs available.
I was thinking of building a house, so this might be a good opportunity for me.
I immediately change my occupation to a carpenter.
“All right, then, let’s get on with building the house!
First of all, I must carry the lumber that I cut down to a spacious area!”
But carrying it by hand would take too much time, and since I still needed more wood to build my house, it would be more efficient to transport it all at once.
So I decide to make a cart.
I thought I would have a hard time since I didn’t have any tools, but thanks to the skills of the carpenter, I am able to complete it in no time.
With various bonuses, it can carry five times as much as a normal cart.
I cut down five more trees and obtain a total of 50 pieces of ” Gisu Wood (Large)”.
I load them into a cart and tie it to the cart with vines to keep them from falling out, then I leave the forest.
In the distance, I can see the castle, the school building.
Around it, a large number of new students are busy building a village.
Apparently, each class is given a certain plot of land within which they have to build a house.
I wonder where the land for my “special training class” is.
It is too much trouble to walk around and look for it, so I try to find it using my eyesight, which has been improved by my five senses.
My eyesight is so good now that I can count the number of pasta sticks a hundred meters away.
But I can’t find it anywhere around the castle.
I turned around from the castel to see if I could find it in other places…….
I see a sign in the forest that says, “Garbage Dump (Special Training School Residential Site).
“You want me to live in the woods? …… Whatever.”
I pull the cart and head back the way I came.
I park the cart by the sign and begin to build the house.
I’ve always been good with my hands, so I’ve been making things since I was a kid.
I’ve helped build houses before, but this is my first time to build a whole house from scratch by myself.
However, as soon as I activate my “Carpenter Carpenter” skill, “Wooden Construction”, my body starts moving without hesitation.
It is as if my body knew the process like an experienced carpenter who has built numerous houses.
Since there are no nails, I use a construction method called “Mokumigumi,” in which each piece of wood is joined together.
It is as fun as solving a puzzle, and I easily get absorbed in putting the house together.
Then, after all this time, I realize what I’ve done today.
“I’ve made a stone axe, a cart, defeated three warriors, and chopped down five trees in just one day …….
And now I’m building a house and I don’t feel tired at all. ……!
200 “Endurance” status is a lot of stamina. ……!”
I realise that I built a magnificent two story building.
With various bonuses, it is resistant to earthquake, fire, and corrosion.
