Chapter 8: Day 7 Gaining Comfort
7th Day:
In the morning, I used "Basic Presence Detection" to examine the area around the defensive wall and found no remains of monsters. There seems to be no creatures colliding with the visible wall just outside the forest. I activated self-basic appraisal.

The way my levels are increasing seems abnormal, but I don't understand why. I had breakfast and started my tasks for the day. My "Skill: Magical Tool Creation" level hasn't gone up.

I'm considering creating a box-type trap with "Magical Tool Creation". I decided on Box 6, with dimensions of 2.5m width, 3m height, and 5m depth. It asked about the position of the opening if I didn't want a lid. I chose a small opening on the side.

I set up the box-type trap outside the defensive wall. I'm planning to breed up to 4 wild cows, 10 Big Chickens, and 10 Forest Sheep. I transferred the feed materials from my Infinite Storage to Box 7. I'm aiming to get milk, beef, eggs, chicken meat, wool, and sheep meat.
I also created a universal ingredient maker in my cooking device. It has the functions of "Universal Ingredient Creation" and "Infinite Storage." With this, I should be able to create any required ingredients using the universal cooking device.
I also created a necklace and added "Intermediate Status Abnormality Resistance" and "Intermediate Mental Magic Resistance."
For today, I'll wait until nighttime to perform "Material-to-Magical Tool Transformation" and "Magical Tool Function Addition/Deletion."
I added "Intermediate Poison Resistance" and "Intermediate Magic Attack Resistance" to the necklace. To Box 6, I added "Indestructible" and "Deterioration Prevention." To the Hoe, I added "Farm Work Magic" and "Mass Mana Conversion."
The rest of the work will be done at night.
I performed magical tool function expansion and adjustment. I upgraded the "Basic Presence Detection" on my left bracelet to "Intermediate Presence Detection," upgraded the "Basic Lightning Magic" on my right bracelet to "Intermediate Lightning Magic," and upgraded the "Basic Water Magic" on my left finger ring to "Intermediate Water Magic."
During the time before lunch, I used "Farm Work Magic" to create a field. Using "Intermediate Civil Engineering Magic," I built a one-story house on the foundation, but I haven't yet transformed it into a magical tool, so living in it would be inconvenient. It's a 2LDK layout with a bathroom and toilet.
I also built a two-story house with an attached warehouse and a store on the first floor. The residential area has a 2LDK layout with bathrooms, toilets, and 4 rooms for staff.
After lunch, I went hunting and gathering materials. I also built a bridge using "Intermediate Civil Engineering Magic" so I can cross the river. I made part of the bridge a drawbridge to prevent monsters and animals from crossing. The control wires are hidden underwater.
I've collected over 200 grams of gold nuggets and extracted various metals from ores and stored them.
However, to continue creating magical tools, I might need to develop a mine.
After taking a shower, I had dinner and continued with my remaining tasks: "Material-to-Magical Tool Transformation" and "Magical Tool Function Addition/Deletion" (4 times and 2 times per day, respectively).
First, I turned the extendable pointer from my stationery into a magical tool. It's like a wizard's staff. Its functions are "Basic Ice Magic" and "Mass Mana Conversion." I added "Indestructible" and "Concealment Magic" to it.
As for Higo Mamoru (name of a character or object), I added "Shape Transformation" and "Mass Mana Conversion." I added "Indestructible" and "Basic Sculpture Magic" as well. Maybe I'll make and sell models and dioramas.
I'm planning to start by creating a 3D model of the surroundings. I also added "Defense" and "Deterioration Prevention" to my rain gear.
I laid down in bed. I've been working hard to survive in this world, but I wonder how my original life is faring. It's a relief that my work back there was wrapping up. I had a dream. It's been a while since I've had one. It was the first time I dreamt since coming to this world.
In the dream, there was a commotion as everyone gathered around, watching me fall into a hole. Everyone was frozen, and I could sense the panic. That's how the dream went.
