I stand gazing at my house as it shines like a palace of light, a dreamlike scene.

 

“I had no idea that I would be able to build a base at ……!”

 

When I worked as a carpenter, my master told me that when a facility has walls and gates and the total level exceeds 50, it becomes a “base”.

 

The master also said, “However, only buildings as large and magnificent as a fort can become a base! You can’t get a base in any normal houses because they’re not high-level enough! Well, if it’s a house that was built by a legendary master, then maybe it can turn into a base!”

 

At that time I listened to my master’s words as if they were a fairy tale.

 

I thought it was a story I had nothing to do with, but …….

 

I open my status window, still in disbelief.

 

And sure enough, there it is, under my status.

 

==========

Base

LV1

Size: Rustic house

Base Skills: Activity Support

Gain a status bonus for all activities in the base.

==========

 

“This is the status of the base!? Even in the world, they say that only the chosen ones are given ……!”

 

The skills of the base are for the leader of the base, that is, the person who has become the King.

 

The person who the King has appointed as the administrator of the base can also use some of its power.

 

In any case, it’s a privilege reserved for the royal class, the most powerful people in this world.

 

Still in disbelief, my body suddenly gets enveloped in the same light as the base.

“Now that I’m the master of the base, I guess I’ve leveled up. ……

 

Compared to the past, it’s a satisfying level up.

 

And the new profession is just right for me, isn’t it?”

 

I immediately try changing jobs.

==========

Leopin

Occupation Carpenter ⇒ Trapper

Occupation Skill

Pit trap: Able to set up pitfalls

Wire trap: You can set a trap using a wire.

==========

 

“Okay, let’s get on with setting up defenses around the house. But first, let’s make some tools…”

 

I again change my occupation to “Stonecrafter” to make a few new tools by chipping away at the rocks in the area.

==========

Forest Stone Shovel

Quantity 1

Quality Level 12 (Material Level 1 + Dexterity Bonus 2 + Occupation Bonus 9)

Shovel made of molded forest stone.

With various bonuses, you can carve soil and stone up to twice as hard as your level.

==========

 

With a freshly made shovel in hand, I walk through the gate of the house and start working in the garden.

 

Dig a hole and erect a spear made of pointed cedar wood at the bottom of the hole.

 

Then cover the hole with tree branches and leaves. ……

==========

Pit of Gisu Wood Spear

Quantity 1

Quality Level 23 (Material Level 12 + Dexterity Bonus 2 + Occupation Bonus 9)

A pit with a spear made of Gisu wood.

Difficult to find due to various bonuses, and once you fall in, it is difficult to climb out.

==========

I set up the first one.

 

Next, I set another trap in the grass near the tree in the garden.

==========

Dijazuru Thread Wire Trap

Quantity 1

Quality Level 28 (Material Level 17 + Dexterity Bonus 2 + Occupation Bonus 9)

This trap is made by combining a stone knife with the Daijazuru thread.

If you get caught in the wire, you will be suspended in the air.

Due to the various bonuses, it is difficult to detect, and once suspended, it is difficult to escape.

==========

 

“I can’t believe such a primitive trap is over level 20. …… I must have made a hell of a thing.”

 

I think about setting a trap outside the fence as well, but decide against it.

 

I don’t want Monaka to get caught when she comes back.

 

Monaka is very polite, so I don’t think she would climb over the fence to get in.

 

But just to be safe, I put up a sign in the yard.

 

“Danger! Trap!”

 

It seems that monsters don’t understand human language unless they are at a very high level.

 

I doubt that monsters in this forest are high level; so, they won’t be able to read this warning.

 

When I step out of the house, the forest have already turned a bright orange.

 

◆  ◇  ◆  ◇  ◆

 

At that time, there was a great commotion in the principal’s office.

 

The principal and vice principal are discussing how to redeem themselves after being downgraded.

 

A message appeared on the crystal board on the wall.

 

“Base reacting! Students from our school have set up a base!”

 

They couldn’t believe their eyes.

 

“A base? It can’t be!”

 

“That’s right! There’s no way they could have set up a base just two days after the start of school!

 

Headmaster, our school was scheduled in two years, right?”

 

“That’s right! The record for the fastest time to set up a base in a pioneer school was 793 days after the start of school!

 

I had a special education curriculum designed to break that record!”

 

“So, the magic device is wrong, isn’t it?

 

The magic device where there is a dot of light is malfunctioning!

 

I’ll order the staff to fix it immediately!”

 

As the vice principal said this, he approached the crystal board on the wall and touched the message.

 

Then the display switched to a map of the area around the Royal Pioneer Academy.

 

On the map, a light dot flickered, indicating the location of the base.

 

“I knew I was wrong! It shows a forest far outside the residential area!

 

This is a dumping ground and no one is …….”

 

The two looked at each other with a bang

 

“Wait, ……, no way! It can’t be, it can’t be ……!”

 

The head teacher mumbles a prayer as he manipulates the crystal tablet.

 

He touches the light spot and selects “Surveillance” from the menu in the window that appeared.

 

The map switches to show the current status of the light spot.

 

There is the figure of Leopin, stretching out with a long shadow, looking comfortable.

 

Behind him, there was a single but magnificent house with walls and a gate. ……

 

Looking at the light, which is a sign of the base, shines as brightly as the setting sun,……!

 

“Ki …… kieeeeeeeeeee!!!!”
