Chapter 117: 113

"look, we're still short on lumber!　We can only make a bunny hutch, Peter's hutch!"

Marie's rebuke flies. Unlike ordinary trees, the trees that grow in the Demon Forest are grown with an ample supply of dense magical elements, so even the most ordinary trees are very tough and extremely hard. I never imagined that it would be so tiring just to cut down a tree.

　Also, Peter is a very large rabbit, even for a rabbit. If one can build a rabbit hutch that's bigger than a human, then that's already good enough for me! I can't help but think, ".......

'Damn ......, how hard work ...... this is!'

"Ahhhh, this is tiring!"

 

The Siblings cut down one tree after another with their own magic swords, but they seem to be using up a lot of magic power in the process. Emilia, in particular, has a rather short short sword with two blades, and since she has double the number of swords and thus twice the amount of magic power, she seems to be having a very hard time. However, they seem to be working hard to make up for it, and there were dozens of pieces of lumber around them.

T'he work of getting the shapes just right is quite tiring, too. It takes a lot of nerve."

'The detail work is tiring.'

Lily and Iris are working on the wood cut down by the Schneider siblings to make it consistent in standard. They are using Mei's special mithril knife, but even so, it is said to be a very hard job. However, the two of them are doing an excellent job of making the wood consistent in shape.

　Speaking of me, I was doing 2 works , cutting and shaping the wood with my magic sword, Raikiri. I was able to do this because I had more magic power than the others, but it was quite a hard job. Each task is not a heavy burden, but every little bit of work adds up to a mountain. I was already feeling tired after several hours of work.

"All right, that's it for this morning!　After eating and resting, let's get back to work!"

At Marie's order, everyone stopped working and gathered together. On a table in the garden in front of the mansion, there was cold water and delicious-looking grilled meat.

"This is the meat of the seven colored pheasant, which is rich in magical power. If you eat it when your muscles are tired, it will help you increase the amount of magic power by supplying you with the right amount of magic power. Of course, it also tastes great."

"Oh, ......"

As I think about it every time, Marie's cooking is perfectly balanced in terms of taste and nutrients. Of course, it may be a little below that of a chef who works at the court, but to put it another way, it is amazing to be able to taste quality food that can be matched by top chefs int in the middle of such a remote area. Training is tough, but it is rewards like this that keep me motivated. If human beings have proper rest, food, clothing, and shelter, they may be able to adapt to any enviro

In the afternoon, we started constructing the base using the lumber that we had cut and worked on in the morning. Thanks to our hard work, we were able to cut and machine an unexpectedly large amount of lumber , so they decided that there would be no problem with starting building work in the afternoon. Of course, this is not enough to cover all the necessary materials to build the lodging building, so more cutting and processing work will be required at a later time.

" We have to start by understanding the design before we actually start building. First of all, there are several types of buildings that use wood. A typical example is ----"

Marie's lesson on high speed and high density architecture begins.

By the way, the reason why this kind of training is not directly related to the training to become stronger is related to the military's unique characteristics that distinguish it from other civilian organizations. That characteristic is complete self-sufficiency.

Normally, the economy is based on the exchange of money and the division of labor, with each person in charge of a specialized area of work. This creates highly skilled professionals and raises the level of productivity and technology in society as a whole.

However, the military must go out to achieve its missions even in the middle of enemy territory where it cannot expect support from allies or on the frontier where there are no production facilities. Therefore, they must be able to provide all the equipment and supplies they need to carry out their missions. This naturally includes the building of a frontline base for the soldiers to live in. This is why the base construction training and Marie's lecture were so important.

In addition to myself and Iris, who are already in the military, the people here are called to participate in the national project of the Imperial Government to strengthen military power and detention for the sake of the national defense. The chances of becoming a military officer or a member of the military in the future are quite high there. They are not red papers, but they are like reserve Self-Defense Force officers. In the case of an emergency, they will be called up without a doubt. So even if they are not in the military now, this training is not a waste of time.

　Especially since Lily and I will be traveling together as adventurers. Even if we have a simple encampment made of steel in our inventory, we may not be able to use it in some situations, so it would not be a waste to have survival knowledge.

　And most of all, it would be a great change of pace. It would be depressing to go through the same training every day. It is also very considerate of Marie to give us an occasional training session that has nothing to do with making us stronger. The main reason for this is that there are not enough places for the trainees to sleep!

"Iris, take that one."

Yes."

'Lily, can you use your ice spell to get me a step stool?"

"You got it."

The fact that we are self-contained does not mean that we are making something on the same level as a professional craftsman, so after being taught only the typical and simple building construction, we immediately began to work. We don't want to just learn something and then forget about it. We must practice what we have learned and put it into our bodies while we still remember it.

"Johann."

"Oh!"

Iris and I inserted the wood for the beams into the columns that Emilia had fixed, and Johan, on a step ladder that Lily had made, used a hammer and nails to fix the beams firmly in place. As we performed similar tasks over and over again, we gradually built something that resembled a shack.

The number of trainees in the training program meant that we only had to build a one-story building, which was a big relief.

The difficulty level would have been much higher with a two-story building. ......

The lodging house we are going to build this time is a so-called row house-like building. There is no such thing as a south-facing building, so there are two rows of rooms with a corridor between them. According to Marie, the maximum number of people, including us, who would be able to safely get to this place after breaking through the first barrier, the Demon Forest, would be 18 people. Since the number of people who were initially called up was said to be about 50, this meant that more than 60% of the group had fallen out of the group at the Demon Forest.

　Thanks to Marie's remote monitoring and support, no one was injured to the point of permanent injury, but in any case, it must have been a very tough gate.

The three of us were able to get to this point while securing a good night's sleep and rest by using a simple house in the inventory, a kind of cheating, but Schneider's siblings said they managed to get here while taking turns sleeping for short periods of time, and the other participants were probably no different.

Survival is actually quite hard.

　Anyway, there were only 13 more people to come. We had to complete the accommodation building by the time they arrived.

Hey, hey, the beam is tilted!

"Oh, sorry. Lily, help me!"

"Okay!"

　...... will take a while to complete.
