Chapter 71: Carpenter and logging quest<hr>
    We found a carpenter''s store and as we entered the store, we saw many processed boards. I''ve seen a lot of wood in the forest, but this space with the smell of processed wood is different and I like it a lot.
    "Wee. What can I get for you?"
    The sales clerk, an olddy, called out to me. Well, it seems there is no word for renovation. I''ll have to exin the situation.
    "The store I''m going to live in is falling apart. Is it possible to renovate the floor and stairs?"
    "Of course we can. It''s cheaper than building a whole house, but it''s quite expensive"
    "How much would it cost?"
    "How much? The price varies depending on the size of the house and the materials used, but I''d say 500,000"
    That''s a lot! No, it''s cheaper in reality.
    "Is there a particr material you''re looking for?"
    "I was thinking of hinoki cypress or japanese cedar if possible"
    "I see. You''re not an amateur, are you?"
    No, I''m an amateur. Grandma. Well, I''ve renovated Kayo''s house before and at that time the carpenter liked me, so I''ve heard a little about it.
    "Why do you think so?"
    "You answered without hesitation. And the way you looked at me when you were looking around the store, you had the eyes of a craftsman"
    Did I have that look? No, it''s true that I was looking for a good board, but...
    "I''ve been looking for a good board, but I''ve only learned a few things from a expert"
    "Well, you wouldn''t havee to me for amission if you didn''t. If you don''t have enough money, are you willing to take a request?
    Info flows when Grandma says that.
    The request quest Carpenter Grandma''s Requesthas urred
    <b>Quest Carpenter Grandma''s Request</b>
    <b>Reward: A reduction in the carpenter''s work</b>
    <b>Description: Lumbering Japanese cypress</b>
    I see. If you get the cypress, you''ll get a reduction.
    "How much money will it be?"
    "That''s right...I''ll give you 5,000G for five whole cypresses"
    That''s a whole lot cheaper. That''s scary.
    "Are you sure you''re okay with such a low price?"
    "Oh? Don''t underestimate the price of wood. Cutting down a tree costs ones life"
    Eh? Your life depends on it? No, it''s a dangerous job, but I''m starting to get worried.
    "So, what are you going to do?"
    It''s obvious. There''s no way out.
    "I''ll ept it"
    "You''re right. I''ll lend you this axe, just in case. You''ll need it to cut down the trees"
    I don''t have the logging skill, though. Hahaha.
    "After that, you can get japanese cypress in Trent Forest at the end of the east road. So please take care of it"
    Hmm? Isn''t Trent the name of a tree monster? I have a really bad feeling about this, but I have to do it!
    "So, let''s go to Trent Forest to fix the house"
    "That''s great, but how are we going to cut down the trees?"
    "I''ve gotten trees from Lily''s attacks before, so hopefully that''s how we''ll get them, but if not, I''ll have to get the logging skill"
    When I say that, Lily gets excited, but looking at her, I have a feeling it''s not going to happen.
    For now, we''ll start by gathering information. The first ce we went was the library. It''s the capital of the country, after all and the scale is different. Anyway, it was huge. I was at a loss as to how to find the books, but there was a terminal and when I searched, the books were transferred to my hand. I was impressed by the convenience, but what was the point of the first library?
    However, there was no vital information. I think this is because my reading skill level is too low or it''s a specification that no information is avable in uncharted areas. In other words, I had no choice but to give up.
    Next, we went to the Adventurer''s Guild. It''s huge and many of the NPCs are summoners. I ept a few quests.
    <b>Subjugation Quest Subjugation of Trent: Difficulty E+</b>
    <b>Reward: 5000G</b>
    <b>Defeat five Trents that appear in Trent Forest</b>
    <b>Subjugation Quest Subjugation of Grey Wolf: Difficulty E</b>
    <b>Reward: 1000G</b>
    <b>Kill 10 Gray Wolves on the Seek Road</b>
    <b>Subjugation Quest Subjugation of Crow: Difficulty E</b>
    <b>Reward: 1000G</b>
    <b>Kill 10 Crows on the Seek Road</b>
    <b>Subjugation Quest Subjugation of Goblin Thief: Difficulty E</b>
    <b>Reward: 750G</b>
    <b>Kill 10 Goblin Thieves around Freetia</b>
    <b>Subjugation Quest Subjugation of Goblin Fighters: Difficulty E-</b>
    <b>Reward: 750G</b>
    <b>Kill 10 Goblin Fighters around Freetia</b>
    <b>Subjugation Quest Subjugation of Goblin Shaman: Difficulty E+</b>
    <b>Reward: 750G</b>
    <b>Kill 10 Goblin Shamans around Freetia</b>
    <b>Subjugation Quest Subjugation of Goblin Archer: Difficulty E</b>
    <b>Reward: 750G</b>
    <b>Kill 10 Goblin Archers around Freetia</b>
    For the time being, I will receive this much. I''ll have to fight Trent, Grey Wolf and Crow on the way and Goblin Fighter, Goblin Thief and Goblin Shaman around Freetia, so I decided to take them.
    Now we were all set. Once back at the store, I gave Hephaestus an exnation and one of the ss containers. He was impressed that he had never heard of this mineral and his eyes lit up when I told him that there was a chance he could get his hands on it. He seemed to want to make one.
    There''s one more thing I need to do. I put the salted char in the other container, cover it with a lid and seal it. I heard that you can actually use sardines or something, but everything is a challenge.
    "What are you making?"
    Ion asked, perhaps because I used fish.
    "I make a kind of seasoning called fish sauce"
    "Fish sauce?"
    "Yes. If I can make it, my cooking repertoire will increase dramatically, so you can look forward to it"
    When I said that, not only Ion, but Lily and Setia reacted as well. They really do react to food. But in reality, it''s going to take more than a year. I don''t know what will happen in the game world, but I''ll wait patiently.
    We headed back to Trent Forest. The group consists of me, Lily, Ion, Setia, Hiyori and Yuuga. We needed a flying force because of the crows and we needed someone to be on the lookout for them, so I decided on these members easily.
    We immediately proceeded down the Seek Road and the first thing we encountered was a sheep.
    <b>Sheep Lv7</b>
    <b>Summon Monster Subjugation Target Active</b>
    We seeded in identifying it, but it noticed us and ran away. It was running away really fast. Sheep aren''t that nimble...how is it that even Hiyori can''t catch up? But I''m not giving up! Next time I see one, I''ll kill it! Lamb meat! Or mutton!
    The next thing I saw was a goat. Are there only such monsters here?
    <b>Goat Lv7</b>
    <b>Summoned Monster Subjugation Target Active</b>
    I was able to identify it, but it also escaped. Damn! The goat meat got away! I know how the lions in the Savanna feel. No, I don''t think there are any sheep or goats in Savanna.
    But goats are more famous for their goat milk than their meat. They can make cheese, right? It''s called goat cheese. Unlike cow''s milk, it has a sour taste. I''d like to try making it.
    From here on, however, there was a rush of battle. We defeated a pack of gray wolves and got rid of a flock of crows, but the crows were troublesome. They sensed our ranged magic, ran away and cast debuffs on us. It was kind of a crow-like battle. Fortunately, there was no direct magic attack and their only attack was to peck at me with their beaks, so I was saved. I guess they''re a nuisance when theye with other monsters.
    Then everyone except me leveled up. The Gray Wolves and Crows were the ones that had evolved once. If I kill a lot of them, I''ll be able to level up.<hr>
