Chapter 43 - Building Efficiency

"If you believe in it, you can do it ... Making a wall is something I can do unexpectedly."

I was deeply moved when I saw the wall of enclosure I made for my land. (TLN: It's as if he's seen his wife.... lol)

Earlier, this wall that was made to surround the land was completed in just one round.

I thought that I could keep creating it while watching it.

The wall I made was quite non-standard in size.

The height is close to 10m, and the thickness is 5m.

A wall made of mortar needs bricks that have to be lined up so as to cross each other and fill the gap.

Perhaps it was better to fill the space inside the wall with sand or something to prevent the impact from the outside. (TLN: Ars wanted to support the wall's strength by filling the inside of it with something like bricks.)

However, since I didn't know much about wall architecture, I decided to simply prepare a thick wall.

I think that the amount of magical power I have is increasing as I grow up.

Therefore, the capacity that can be created with one magic session is increasing more than before.

I felt it when I reproduced the inn.

However, even so, it was still hard for me to create a wall of this size with a width of 5m.

In other words, it was necessary to activate magic every 5m to connect the walls.

Actually, when I first started working, I was about to complain that the work was going to take too long.

I felt that it was not realistic to create a wall surrounding a field to its horizon quickly.

Contrary to my expression, however, the work was finished earlier than I expected.

It can be said that it went better than expected.

First of all, I have made a type of magic that helps with wall construction.

Originally, the work of cultivating magic to have your own spell name for it is difficult and time-consuming.

The magic is needed to activate itself like a conditioned reflex when you cast a spell in your mind, so that you can then name it to have it become yours.

However, you must continue to use the exact same spell one after another when you want to give it a name so that conditioned reflexes occur well. (TLN: He needs to cast the same spell over and over again, copying exactly what he did the first time, and only after it's become a reflex can he give the spell a name to basically put a patent on it.)

In other words, it doesn't work unless you keep hitting the baseball ball with the same trajectory and at the same speed as it was first struck out, whilst mustering up all of your strength every time.

Can you imagine how difficult it is?

However, I succeeded in creating [Wall Construction] earlier than in when I patented [Shotgun]. (TLN: I'm just gonna call it a patent whenever he makes a spell.)

I was able to save time by doing the same thing as when I built the inn.

I firmly imagined the wall I wanted to make in my head and create it with magic.

This time, I soaked in my magical power into the wall in my head so that it would spread.

I then used the [Memory Preservation] spell after covering that wall made of soil with magical power.

Then I was able to magically memorize the structure of the wall perfectly and without any difference in my brain.

This made it much easier to mutter the spell and then continue to reproduce the same spell, which helped to quickly succeed in the spell patent.

The establishment of this method has made the work easier, but there is another factor that has led to a surge in efficiency.

It was the existence of my Familiars.

Since I named my first Familiar Valkyrie, all my Familiars have been able to use magic.

But even more surprisingly, it turned out that Valkyrie and the others could use the magic that I later patented even after their births.

They can use magic that was not available at the time of their naming.

That means that Valkyrie and others can also use [Wall Construction].

Individuals for sale to hawkers have their horns cut off, and are the so-called hornless.

However, in order to hatch the Familiar Eggs, some of them were grown without cutting their horns and left at hand to help raise the others.

This is because the Familiars I hatch can hatch their own eggs as long as [Magic Injection] can be used.

This time, I called 5 of them to make a wall.

However, it is still difficult to make a wall that stretches for several kilometers and surrounds all sides of the field.

So I decided to use the magical mushrooms I made for selling as a supply of magical power.

Those mushrooms are a material for magic recovery medicines.

However, I didn't know how to make a magic recovery medicine.

When it was shipped, it was dried in the sun and sold to the peddler in the form of dried mushrooms.

However, even in this state of dried mushrooms, it seems that it was effective in supplying magical power.

Valkyrie and I were chewing hard mushrooms in our mouths, making walls all the time.

"How is it, my Baito-nii. Isn't it amazing?"

"No, it's not amazing, you idiot. Where's the exit for the wall."

When I talk to my older brother, who is approaching me while I'm looking at the wall, I get unexpected words.

I thought he would be surprised ...

However, what he said makes sense.

The outer wall I made is square, and I think the length of one side is probably about 4km.

Where is the doorway on such a distant wall?

Well....

"... I didn't think about the doorway. What should I do?"

"That's okay ... for the time being, it's different from the field, so it's better to decide on the way to the exit so that you can understand it, right?"

"Is that the way I should create the entrance and exit? I'll think about it."

In this way, the construction of the wall was completed, and although it succeeded in preventing the wild boar's damage, new problems arose.

TLN:

Summary: Ars created a wall. Simple as dat. He forgot to make a doorway. He is reprimanded by his part-time brother (Baito-nii) and then decides to observe the field more before thinking of making an exit or entrance.
