Vol 2 Chapter 3 (2/2)

He conducted a geological survey using earth ic

“Inside a ten kilometer radius, there is iron, copper, tin, zinc, coal…and even gold and silver…I’ll have to confiremstones there are later It’s surely a mountain of treasure”

It was an environment blessed with abundance If the huive it up

“Okay, let’s do this!”

“Yeah!”

The confident Georg and the supportive Ferris If you excluded the events at the village, this was the first time that the domestic affairs cheat had been activated

First, Georg uprooted the surrounding forest and separated the fruit trees fro them in the air He had cleared out an area of about 15 hectares, nearly three times the area of the Tokyo Dome (AN:The ae enough area was cleared, he began digging, leaving solid dirt at the botto the softer soil to the surface Then, it was the rocky mountain’s turn

“Ugh…As expected, the h”

“Nii-san, do your best!”

“Yeah!”

The rock was removed from its foundation, and its foric to alter the rock) He thenthe plot of land Georg created iron gates out of the ore that he had found buried within the rocky round, lining all the sides except the side facing the lake The gates were five meters tall, 30 centimeters thick, and very sturdy, since the ore had been perfectly refined and cured

Georg also put detailed work into the walls He had hollowed out the rocky crag to h they had already possessed considerable strength, Georg cured the them to imitate the walls of a Western castle He constructed a stairway inside and, on the bare, tunnel-like walls,invaders To further strengthen the defense of the castle gates, he gave the for more people to defend them

In this way, using a construction est rampart toere completed They were approximately nine meters tall (AN: the peak is 12 meters tall) and sixabout two meters away fro then poured in water from the lake to fill it The moat had a depth of four meters and the width of a small river at five meters

Georg used firetheany weeds, seeds, insects, and the like inside of it He then compressed and baked the dirt into white stone bricks, before laying theates He planned for this to become the main street later on He also used some of the bricks to make his residence on the lakeside There was no furniture, so it was purely aesthetic, but he admired the little castle he had created

The inside of the castle was divided into four parts The southeastern side (AN: the lake is to the north) was converted into fields for agriculture, and the fruit trees were planted in that area There were many trees that were left over, so he had cut the branches into fine pieces and mixed them with the soil around the exterior of the castle in order to create leaf coe trunks were piled in one section of the castle Although he called it a section, the entire southwestern area had almost been buried However, with this a materials or firewood

With all of this done, the foundation for their base could finally be called complete If it had been built by humans, it would have taken several thousand humans several months, and if they were unskilled, it could have taken the could make it in less than an hour ithout a doubt, an incredible feat (AN: the location was good as well)

“Aah…as expected, it’s already iic power”

Georg collapsed inside of the empty castle as he muttered that

“Thank you for your hard work, nii-san”

Ferris caught him and rested his head on her lap

“…Well, everything starts here, Ferris”

“Yes…but, with nii-san here, it’ll be fine”

“…Is that so?”

“Yes”

Georg grew tired and drifted off to sleep
