Multiple updates today This is the third one
I generated a two-story house. But I’ll wait a bit before placing it.
Actually, I asked Mashiro to level out the surrounding land as soon as she got back. With Fenrir’s massive body, it’s easy to even out the ground.
She had been working on it while we were having dinner.
Since the spot where the cabin was has been cleared, Mashiro is now stomping the ground one last time.
“Thanks a lot, Mashiro. If I could do something in return, I would…”
Then Mashiro suddenly looked at the bathroom.
He stared at the screen with a heated gaze.
I let out a deep sigh. I understood his wish.
“I’m just going to ask, okay?”
Fenrir nodded happily.
“Hey, everyone…! Masiro seems a little dirty too, can someone wash her?”
The response was immediate.
“Of course! Masiro worked hard today, I’ll wash her!”
“If that’s the case, I’ll take care of her too.”
“I don’t mind helping either.”
“That’s right. Masiro’s one of us now.”
「…It’s okay.」
Mashiro chirped happily, licked my face, and then jumped into the bathroom.
I wonder how an osfenrir who wants to enter the women’s bath would be… Well, it’s already a blessing that the phantasm is cooperative, so if the women allow it, that’s fine…
“All right then.”
When it came to laying out the house, I was concerned about the foundation.
There were issues with adopting this approach. I could have the foundation included in the generation, thanks to my ‘Crafting Ability’.
However, the foundation is basically buried in the ground. I could dig it out, but burying it would cause problems.
Because I become connected to the ground, I can no longer store things in my Inventory. I would have no choice but to abandon my house and run away if the time came.
Deep in thought about not wanting to lose my mobility, Fukaho told me about a method called “stone foundation building.”
Basically, it involves placing stones and then setting up the pillars of the building on top of them. As I listened, I vaguely remembered seeing something like this in anime or other shows when old houses appeared.
Of course, there are mechanisms to prevent the pillars from shifting, but the Craft Ability takes care of that. The stones used as the foundation are also generated, so their shape and size can be freely customized.
I decided on the placement and finally set them up.
The two-story wooden house appeared as if it had been there all along.
“All right…!”
People often talk about how owning a home is a dream after becoming an adult, but I never expected to get one when I was transferred to a desert island.
I generated candles made from plant oils and candle holders with stone handles, then took fire from the bonfire.
Then I returned to the house, opened the door, and went inside. By the way, the hinges were also made of wood and stone, and it was a sliding door.
Inside, there was a spacious entrance. Unlike the hut, I didn’t have to store everyone’s shoes individually. I placed a candle holder and candle on top of the shoe rack and lit them.
I prepared a pair of sandals made from grass for each person and put on my own pair before moving forward.
I set up a stone oven in the kitchen and placed firewood, cooking utensils, and dishes there.
The changing room to be connected to the bathroom has baskets and soap replacements set up.
And in the living room, I’ve placed a wool carpet and several pieces of furniture. You can take a look at them tomorrow.
Then I went out into the hallway, climbed the stairs, and arrived at the second-floor hallway. There are three rooms on the right and four on the left.
“Oh, so that’s why you put the furniture in before the rooms are assigned…”
Well, if there’s a problem, I can always move them later. I entered the three rooms on the right and the two rooms on the left, placing the furniture in order.
A desk, a chair, and a shelf. I also put a candlestick and a candle on the desk.
And the star item is the bed.
The bed frame is made of wood, and I could have made it yesterday, but…
There was an issue with the fabric for the futon cover and the thread for sewing.
However, the exploration team brought back a large amount of flax, so that problem was solved. I generated a wool-filled futon and quilt and placed them on the bed. I even put a pillow stuffed with wool.
“Isn’t this pretty good?”
I feel like the place has a stronger sense of being a home.
Since I’ve taken care of the priorities, I spent some time placing spears in the armory and thinking about what else the house needs, then headed outside.
“I still want glass…”
Although I made sliding doors for the living room and windows for each room, as a modern person, I still want glass windows.
Thinking about that, I went outside to find the four of them staring blankly at the house.
She looked different and more appealing with her wet hair and towel draped around her neck as she walked. By the way, the girls were wearing fluffy wool clothes.
The four of them noticed me.
“Sousuke, this is amazing, right!”
Shouko’s reaction was always honest, and that’s why it was nice to know she was being genuine.
“Yeah… it’s really amazing.”
Even Shion’s reaction was simple.
“A splendid love nest.”
Chiyu was her usual self, but I could tell she was excited.
“It really is splendid…”
Fukaho had been helpful with all sorts of advice, but seeing the house in person seemed to impress her deeply.
“Everyone, I’m going to take a bath, so come inside.”
I handed Chiyu the candlestick and headed toward the bath.
“Sousuke, are you sure? Don’t you want to see our reactions?”
I gave a wry smile to Chiyu’s question. Indeed, it was fun to see the reactions to something I had made.
“I’ll ask for your thoughts later.”
Glancing at Mashiro, who was sleeping contentedly outside the bath, I headed inside. Using a large bathtub all by myself felt like a luxurious indulgence.
I wasn’t really a long bath person, so I was about to get out quickly.
「Eeeeee! ?」
I heard Shouko’s scream, and then a series of thuds followed by the door opening violently. I had just gotten out of the bath and was still hot, so I put on a linen shirt and pants and stepped outside the screen.
Shouko then burst out.
“Sousuke!”
“The house is dark. Don’t run around, it’s dangerous.”
“Ah, yeah, I’ll be careful—wait, that’s not what I meant!”
“How was it?”
I could feel a smug smile on my face.
“It’s amazing, amazing! I never thought I’d get my own room on a desert island, let alone a bed to sleep in! The futon and pillow are so soft, it’s the best! I’m over the moon!”
Shouko threw herself into my arms with too much enthusiasm. The scent of soap, her body heat, and the softness of her body all came through.
“Ah… Sh-Shouko-san!”
Fukaho rushed out and shouted loudly.
“Ahaha, I couldn’t help it.”
Saying that, Shouko stepped away from me.
“This is such a wonderful house. The kitchen is a countertop kitchen, and it’s nice that I can talk to everyone in the living room while cooking.”
Shion also came out.
“I can feel your thoughtfulness and kindness everywhere.”
Chiyu nodded deeply as she appeared.
「W-Wow, I’m really impressed. No, I’m touched. The house turned out so nice from the trees we cut down together. Of course, it’s thanks to your abilities, but I’m happy we could work together.」
「Nah, it’s half your doing, Fukaho. You helped me out with a lot of things, and I couldn’t have built this house in a day on my own. You should take pride in your magic and knowledge.」
I recalled how exhausted I was after cutting down one tree on the first day, and how my hands were a mess.
「Y-Yeah, thank you. It was fun building the house together.」
「Yeah, me too.」
Everyone’s mood lightened up.
「Can we build Mashiro’s house tomorrow? She’s already asleep.」
「Sure. Oh, I’d like it to be in a spot visible from my window.」
「Alright, I’ll do that. That way, when I open my window in the morning, I can greet Mashiro.」
「Yay! That’s exactly what I wanted!」
Shouko is getting excited.
“Let’s go to sleep for now.”
Shouko’s sheep have already been returned, and everything else has been put in the ‘Inventory.’ We all enter the house.
On the way, Chiyu comes over, gently takes my hand, leans in close to my ear, and whispers.
“I’m going to your room after this.”
”…”
I respond by squeezing Chiyu’s hand back.
It looks like it’ll be a while before I can fall asleep.
