I am actually curious about the “rustic house” in the size section.
And with the new base skill, I can now expand your base.
I am getting more and more motivated, but then my stomach growls.
“It’s almost noon, isn’t it? I think I’ll take a break and go find some food.”
As I leave the gate of the house, I can see the castle and the residential area of the school building through the tunnel of trees.
In the residential area, there are many students gathered.
I am a little curious about what they are doing, so I approach them …….
Weiss is up on a platform addressing the crowd.
“From now on, everyone will be building a base under the guidance of me, the base chairman.”
If this is promoted to a base, there will be nothing to fear, even if the effects of the magic “Avoidance” fade.”
Everyone! Do as I, the Sage, tell you!”
If you do, this settlement will be a stronghold by nightfall!”
The students replied, “Ooh!” I can not tell if they were motivated or not.
Well, as Weiss said, if the residential area becomes a base, the chance of being attacked by monsters will decrease.
I just mumble, “Good luck,” and return to the forest.
◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆
As usual, while I was gathering nuts and mushrooms in the forest, I met a girl who appears illuminated by the sunlight through the trees.
She is aiming at a bird perched on a branch of a tree, and drawing her bow.
Her stance is as beautiful as a painting.
Her glossy black hair is tied up in a bun, her dark eyes create a contrast against her white skin, her nose is modest but clear, and her lips are cherry red.
Her attire is particularly eccentric.
Her jacket is as white as a saint’s robe, but her skirt is bright red.
“Could that be the hakama ……, the national clothing of the eastern countries?”
The girl may have been distracted by my voice, and the arrow deflected far from its target.
The target bird has left the branch and is circling above the girl’s head teasingly.
“I’ve shot all my arrows ……. I can’t face everyone with this …….”
I call out to the girl who is slumping her shoulders.
“I’m sorry to have disturbed you.”
The girl looks up and shakes her head from side to side.
” No, it wasn’t your fault, I am just inexperienced.”
“You were hunting?”
“Yes, I was trying to give the people who are cultivating the land a little more energy.
But I’ve only ever shot at immobile targets, so it was impossible for me.”
“It won’t be too much of an apology, but let me help you.”
“Thank you. But, I don’t have any more arrows left. ……”
As she bowes politely, I begin to cut the branch.
“You’re a woodworker, aren’t you?”
“No, I’m unemployed.”
“Really? Then it’s no wonder you don’t know anything about it.”
Arrows are not made of wood alone. You need something to make the arrow head ……”
After shaping about ten tree branches, I released the “Gisu-no-Shuriken” into the sky.
I think I hear a scream above my “Pigya” head, and then items start to fall.

“Hmm? Did you say something?”
The girl’s dark eyes widen as she watches me catch the items.
“The bird that I couldn’t hit no matter how hard I tried, you managed to hit …… in one shot! And, you can even hit it with a hand thrown weapon. ……!”
