Chapter 17:
*Pat pat pat*
Huh?
*Pat pat pat*
What's that?
*Pat pat pat*
Ahh! I'm still sleepy!
(Ughwah!) Me
Ooohhw, it hurts! What is that?
Ne~igh!
(Kuroma?) Me
Ne~igh!
I see. It's him, i told him yesterday to wake me up.
(Thankyou for waking me up, kuroma. But please refrain from jumping on my stomach next time.) Me
It hurts, does he think i'm strong just because i can summon him? Well, it's true that i'm strong since god modified my body, but it's still not as strong compared to if i use magic.
It's already 7, so i go downstairs to eat. When i arrived at the groundfloor, i saw sarah serving foods as usual, so i helped her. While i am serving the dishes, a woman in her eighteens wearing an apron comes out from the kitchen, and she stopped when she saw me serving the dishes.
She's staring at me, so i looked away, etto~, what? Do you need something? This is uncomfortable. When i looked at her again, she is still staring, but then suddenly smiled evily, then she called out to sarah.
(Sarah-chan, come here for a second!) The girl
(Yeah, cherry-san?) Sarah
I see, so her name is cherry, she must be the employee that sarah is talking about yesterday, though i don't know if she is the sick girl, or the girl who go to another town.
(Sarah-chan, that boy, is he the one you are talking about? The boy that you lik...) Cherry
Sarah immediately covers cherry-san's mouth. What are you talking about? Sarah told you about me? Ah, She must be talking about how i help her when she is alone here.
Cherry-san is smiling widely, but i can't hear that they are talking about, so i just let them.
After distributing the dishes, i go to my seat to eat my food. Just like yesterday, sarah sit in my table and eat her food.
After finishing, i helped her again just like yesterday. Cherry-san is still smiling widely, what's her problem? Is it funny to see a man cleaning the table in this world? Could it be that only girls are allowed to clean the tables?
After cleaning, i head to the town's gate where we enter the other day, i'm going outside the town to make a portable house.
When i arrived at the gate, the guard from the other day is standing there.
(You are the boy from the other day right? Do you have a guild card now?) Guard
(Yeah, i made sure to get a guild card yesterday.) Me
(I see, it would be troublesome if you don't have a guild card, so that's good. Anyway, show me your guild card before i allow you to go outside.) Guard
(Yeah, here, but why do you need it?) Me
(This is to make sure that criminals cannot go outside.) Guard
(I see.)
I give my guild card to the guard and it becomes clear, when he hold it then he sticks it to a square magic tool that he is holding. It lights up a color blue, when he saw that, he give me back my guild card, then he let me go outside.
I search for a place far from the road and town.
(This place is good.) Me
It's plain, and no one can see me.
First, i make a floor using earth magic, and made it as shiny as i could. Then i made the pillars, then the wall, and then i make the window and the door. I also use magic to change it's color. I made the wall and floor white, and then made the frames of the window black.
Then i made a wall that would separate the bathroom and the living room. The living room, the kitchen, and the dinning room are in the biggest room. The door is at the left front of the house. The living room is at the left side of the house where you can see it when you open the door. At the right of the living room is the dinning table. And the the kitchen is at the right side of the dinning table.
If you open the door, you can see a door to the left side of the back wall. That door is the place where you put your clothes when you enter the bathroom. If you enter that door, you can see a blurry glass sliding door that leads to the bathroom.
I made the bath tub with earth magic, i don't know if i can make marble with earth magic, so i just made it as smooth and shiny as i could.
I made the glass for the window by making a fine sand using earth magic, then melt it using earth magic, then made it as plain as i could.
I then made a stairs, then made the floor for the second floor. I made the walls and then put windows first, before making a walls that would separate three rooms. I also made the door with compressed earth magic to make it thin and strong. I made all the doors a sliding door because i don't know how to make a door hinge with magic.
I made the walls inside white but, i made the walls outside black so that it won't be noticed immediately during the night.
With this, everything is done, now i just need to buy furnitures and equipments like table, chair, cooking ware, and everything.
I didn't notice it, but it's already noon, maybe 12 or 1, im not sure. I put the house inside my item box and i hurry back to the town to buy the equipments and furniture.
After buying all necessary things, i go back outside the town to put all the things i bought. Sofa, small table, dinning table, chairs, cooking ware, bed, vases, and many other things.
Then i made a shower and faucet for the bath tub using magic stones. I also made a hair dryer for athena to use. The inside has a wind magic, and near the hole has a metal cube that has fire magic stone. If you pour magic on it, the metal cube will get hot, and then the wind magic stone will blow an air, and the air will become hot.
After i put everything inside the house, i looked outside, hmm... The time is around 3 or 4, i'm glad that i made it fast. I thought it would take me until 8 or 9 in the night.
My clothes are now dirty, so i go to the bath. I poured magic on the water magic stone, and then poured magic on the metal cube that has a fire magic stone inside similar to the hair dryer.
After a while, I touched the water and the temperature is just right. The faucet on the inn is different, it is the normal type that you need to spin and doesn't need magic, so i wonder why the temperature is just right.
I entered the bath, and sit down. Haaahys, it feels good, taking a bath after a tiring day is really good.
While relaxing, i take out the bread and orange juice i bought earlier, and eat it. It feels so good, it's so relaxing. Why didn't i tried it before. As usual, i washed my clothes using water magic and wind magic.
After a while, i have decided to finish my bath, i need to return to the inn before it gets dark after all. I stand up and used the towel that i bought earlier. Then i wear my clothes and clean the bath tub, because athena will be using it tomorrow. After cleaning, i go outside the house and then put it inside my item box, and summoned kuroma.
Ne~igh! Ne~igh! Ne~igh!
He is moving a lot, what's his problem?
(Kuroma, what's wrong?)
He cries again while moving many times, what? I can't underst...
*Whroooooaaaarwh*
What's that? It came from the road. When i heard the noise, kuroma is pushing me to where the noise came from. I have a rough idea what it is, but i'm not sure, so i used perception magic.
As i spreads my search, i sensed four people 300 - 400 meters from where i am standing, and i sensed an ominous red muddy aura, a monster, a bear?
No, it's a horned bear! I knew it, that loud roar is from the horned bear. They are a level 20 monster on the GFO, they are not that strong, but their roars are very loud, and it's so painful in the ears.
A boy and girl is holding a sword, and the other boy and girl is holding a magic staff. They are surrounding the boar, and they are forming two groups.
When the horned bear attacks the girls, the boy magician shoots the horned bear with earth stones, then the bear turned it's attention to the two boys.
When the bear rushed to them, the boy swordsman tries to slash the head of the bear, but the bear dodges it, and the girl magician shoots a water ball to the bear, and the bear roars very loudly, that must be painful for a low level monster.
The bear stand's up and roar loudly because of the pain, then the boy swordsman slashed the bears back, and the bear roars loudly again in pain.
The bear tries to step back, but the female swordswoman rushed to it and slashed it's back again, it didn't noticed the girl coming from behind.
The bear is cornered so the two magicians shoots it with strong magic without stopping until the bear collapsed.
The bear collapsed, but it's still moving, so the two swordsman rushed to it and thrust their sword on it's neck to make sure that it will die.
The boar stopped moving, and the four people stepped back and sit on the ground while breathing heavily.
*Sigh*, i thought they would be killed, so i want to help them, but it looks like i am worrying needlessly.
I turned off my perception magic and told kuroma that we don't need to worry anymore, but for some unknown reasons, he is still crying loudly and moving a lot.
(Kuroma, the horned bear is already dead, you don't need to worry anymore.) Me
Ne~igh! Ne~igh! Ne~igh!
What is his problem? He is still crying and moving restlessly.
(Kuroma, the horned bear is already dead, is something wrong?) Me
When i ask him that, kuroma points his nose to where the four people is. The horned bear is already, but he is still crying restlessly, for now i'll just try to check what's happening.
I used perception magic again and sensed the four people, but there's no problem, they are still sitting. Wait... I sensed something just now, i'll try spreading my magic more.
When i spread my magic more, i sensed 2... 5... 10... 30... no, it's more than a hundred goblins! and a big goblin that was bigger than the boars i fought the other day, a Goblin Lord! And it is even the one holding a sword!
