Chapter 263: 263

The next day, we gathered at the lumber yard after completing our morning routine and personal duties. Krull and Lucy won’t know exactly what they’re going to do either, but they’re getting together like nothing.

“Start by choosing the one to use as a pillar.”

“It rained yesterday.”

I snort at Rike’s words. You can’t even stand the wet one as a pillar. I don’t think it’s that wet the way it got down yesterday, just in case.

Fortunately, this forest tree is basically growing upright. But it’s a pillar on the terrace, and even if it’s slightly bent, that would make it taste good, any dry and of some length.

“This looks good.”

“What about this one?

“Oh, I think that’s good too”

We all hand-split like that, looking for lumber to be columns, and secured eight.

“You just have to do this.”

“Where do you make the terrace?

“Right…”

I thought to Thermia’s question. There are fields in the courtyard. It’s pretty splendid because of Liddy, and I don’t want to make it that way.

“Do you want to make it at the end of the hallway now? You still have land over there.”

“There is, but…”

I said Deanna mumbles on the way. I urged ahead.

“But what’s up? “When you have to add more rooms?

“You don’t have that.”

When I give it back, everyone, including Deanna, will look at me with a jitsu eye. I also knew I didn’t have to say what I wanted to say.

“… in case the time comes, you can build a hallway at right angles. Let’s open up the worst part of the field.”

Everyone sighed, but he seemed convinced and got to work.

The work begins with me and Rike, Deanna and Helen digging holes that build columns. The other two are the task of skinning the tree to be a pillar.

The hole digger works with a shovel, and the skin peeler works with a sickle. Sometimes it’s called work that I’ve been through a few times, except for Helen, and I almost finished the work in the morning.

In the afternoon the task is to build a pillar in the hole. This is also a scene where Krull is very active.

I haven’t been particularly helpful in terms of the amount of dirt I apply, but what, I’m willing to say this. “Don’t thank me,” I stroked both Krull and Lucy.

There are eight columns, so repeat the same task eight times.

“Even if the pillars just stood, I can somehow see the shape…”

It’s a sight I’ve seen several times (I’ve missed one time), but I admire every time I say this.

That is the end of today’s work, after which we will check the condition of the soil filled with pillars tomorrow, and if it is loose, it will be consolidated again, and the work on the floors and roofs will come from it.

So I told him what to do around there right now.

The sun dyes orange around. I felt like I saw a family relaxing on the terrace in the eight pillars built in it.
