[Volume One] Chapter 004

Gardening

[Points: 650 remaining]

Today I woke up with a somewhat strange notification in my [Log].

It said that, aside from 110 daily points, I also got 60 more from a thing called Treant.

I accessed the Golem's memory and saw a tree suddenly grew with extreme speed in the middle of the night.

It was actually a common Treant spawned from the gathering of Mana.

But it was crushed by the Golem and left behind a few seeds.

[Apple Seed]x3

This is pretty good, a garden would be nice.

These can be offered to visitors as long as they behave themselves.

I'll need a pond too, or at least a small lake for fishes.

Then we'll also add a well for fresh water, too.

The well I can handle, but the pond and fishes would have to wait.

I can't afford all of those right now.

First, I brought out an [Earth Golem(50P)].

And then gave it a [Shovel(5P)] to take care of the apple seeds.

[Points: 595 remaining]

I then had it planted the three apple trees.

I had decent knowledge about this kind of thing, so I accessed its Behaviors through [Settings] and set the time for watering.

I also raised the fertility of the land itself.

Now the problem would be where can we find water?

So I accessed the geography session from [Sanctuary] and found out that there's an underground network of water running through this place.

That was the first fortune I really had since becoming a God.

I immediately bring out a [Well(50P)] and also a [Bucket(5p)].

Now the Earth Golem can water my apples.

I gave it a [Watering Can(5P)] and accessed its behaviors again to give instruction on how to use it.

[Points: 535 remaining]

Alright.

Now that all the preparations for my apples were finished, let's take another nap.

Ah before that, let's throw another 200 into attraction.

We now have 3 points of attraction, I wonder how much is that...

Just as I was about to space out for a quick nap...

[Two intruders incoming]

Observer: Shadow Wolf 03

The wolves once again pleased me to no end.

They're so good at this kind of thing, though if I set up [Alert] in [Sanctuary], it would have brought the same result...

Another two people clad in armor came close.

One male one female, both armed to the teeth.

「Young Miss, I saw a Shrine nearby」

「Is that so? Let's stop by and pray then...」

I actually felt relieved.

It was the first time I judged that if these two people had the intentions to destroy my place, I wouldn't be able to stop them whatsoever.

The moment they walked through the outer gate, I checked their information.

Frank

[LV.90 Adventurer]

Elma

[LV.110 Adventurer]

Yep.

If they want to fight, all my guardians along with the shrine will be destroyed.

I'm glad they just came to pray, but let's not be careless.

Enjoying this book? Seek out the original to ensure the author gets credit.

I prepared my Menu to be ready to call out a [Lesser Demon(500P)] anytime needed.

The demon itself is LV.100, but hopefully I won't have to use it.

All of the inhabitants were in standby mode, so they were nowhere to be seen.

The pair of adventurers opened the wooden door and entered the shrine.

The man put a gold coin onto the table while the woman used a small piece of cloth to wipe the dust on the table and the idol.

I'll judge these two as nice people for now.

That doesn't mean I'll let loose my hands on the Menu though.

They knelt in front of the table and offered their silent prayers.

O great God, I pray for your generosity and bestow upon us your blessing. If possible please take my life and let the Young Miss be safe...

O great God, your child prays for peace and prosperity upon our lands, please let our sins be washed away by your divinity...

Umm...I have no power to interfere with the peace of your lands.

If you accidentally seduced a man or two then I'll forgive you, but if you committed homicide then I guess you have the Demon Gods to pray to...

[Points +400: 935 points remaining]

Hooh~

Their faith are leagues above the other three.

These two must have belonged to a religion

Or maybe they just have a lot of faith in divine beings.

I bestowed upon them two [LV.1 Blessing - Physical(10P)] just like I did with the other three.

Well, it's the only thing I could give anyway...

「Oh? Frank...this is...」

「Yes. A body boost blessing」

The woman widened her eyes and prostrated to the idol.

「Thank you so, so much, Kami-sama...」

Hmm?

Is this something very valuable?

It's just a LV.1 basic buff you know...

It only lasts for a day.

But I guess with their line of work, any help would be much appreciated.

She left another gold coin on the table and the two of them left.

Haaa...

I sighed in utter relief.

Good thing they were nice people.

[Points +100Extra: 1015 points remaining]

Ohhh...her extra gratitude at the end gave me another 100P.

And in addition to that, my most basic daily points raised to 20P.

[New believer added. Number of Believers: 1]

That woman became a follower of my yet to establish religion.

Well, it's a nice thing, if anything.

So I decided to upgrade the Shrine again to raise its HP.

The house didn't become bigger, but changed to more good-looking.

Mostly the wood changed to a higher quality kind.

[Points: 465 remaining]

OK I'll save it for now.

I'm having something else in mind to spend.

I guess that's it for today...though the sun hasn't even started to go down yet...

Well, who cares...goodbye.
