Chapter 686 Construction Magic

The first spell that caught Wolfe's attention was the [Generational Farmhouse] spell. It was a layered Earth Magic array, and it was intended to precisely what the name suggested. It would create a house that was designed to last more than a generation of Demons.

The designs that were included in the description of the spell were all for simple stone houses, with slate roofs and stone floors. In a hot area like most of the Demon Realm, they were perfect, well ventilated and bright with well-placed windows.

But in the Frozen Wastes, they could be a bit too breezy in the winter, and the floors would always be cold. But the windows could be upgraded to double-pane with glass or air magic, and the floors could be heated or covered with a rug.

Being able to use the template would allow Wolfe to make these houses in under a minute at his level, which would be perfect for making homes for an influx of new residents like they had received lately. This essence is securely nested within the heart of Nøv€lß¡n★

They would also have a lot of elemental magic, so they could likely live quite comfortably inside a stone house, even in the parts of the Wastes that hadn't had their weather altered yet.

Of course, Wolfe didn't know just how much the weather on his continent had already been changed by the spread of the Fae Forest and related spells. Since he'd been gone, hundreds of kilometres of land had been changed, and the warm zone now encompassed nearly half of the Frozen wastes, and extended to both the Myrrh and Sylvan Coven borders.

By the time that the worst of winter arrived, there was a good chance that there wouldn't be much frozen left on the wastes, and they would return to their native savanna state.

Dana nodded in understanding. The human world was just too much fun, and everyone was looking for a leadership spot in the human nations as they prepared to take "Guardianship" positions.

For both the Demons and the Fae, weakness was a sin, so for the humans who couldn't use magic, if their technology wasn't impressive enough, then they would end up as a subordinate of the group of powerful creatures that came to stabilize the situation in their nation.

Wolfe had heard that the situation was actually increasing the mana density in the world, which would only make things less stable as the monsters gained more power and began to expand their territories out of the wilderness areas, which would lead to more need for assistance, in a vicious cycle that would only end when the world had found a new balance.

There was no telling where that would be, but Wolfe was ready for a situation where only a few nations were run by the witches or humans, and the rest were under the control of Fae or Demon factions.

So, he started the book on sculpting and decorative architecture with the aim of creating places where powerful Demons wouldn't mind staying to raise a family, and then he would work to protect the rights of the people of his world using the goodwill that he could build up.

The next book was a marvel of durable decorations, and it even had tips and tricks on how best to visualize sculptures and detailed forms while the spell caster was creating a building or conducting a renovation.

Wolfe wasn't the most artistic person in the world, but according to this, he didn't have to be. He could skip the complexities of creating an original work, and recreate one that he had seen before.

For example, crown moulding could be replicated all through the building, using the same memory and spell, and intricately carved banister posts could be done the same way. It was the actual sculptures, stained-glass windows and other unique details that needed an artistic touch.

But in Wolfe's mind, that meant that if he wanted to replicate a scene from home to make someone feel more relaxed, he could just use the details of his memories to make a copy. It was definitely cheating, and every artist in the world would object to their work being used that way, but it would make incredibly luxurious homes much more easily and permanently than using solidified magical illusions.

Wolfe was pretty sure the two techniques could be used together, but he had enough to do just taking notes today.
