《Joe in medieval fantasy world》V1 - Chapter 12: de Building
Advertisement
I wake up early in the morning and look at my side. Sigh, I expect some exciting event like sleeping girl(s) at my side which is common in novel. But I don't find someone besides me here. Maybe those types of girls just appear in novel just to add juice to the author’s work. Let’s accept that this is reality. Sigh. I stretch my body and exit the castle. The clan offers me to sleep in the castle and I gladly accept it since this is medieval building so I agree to experience the feeling of medieval. I expect that I will just sleep in the floor or in the straw but I am surprise when they offer me a bed. The bed is compose of mattress, sheets, canopy and curtains, just like in medieval movies. I sleep soundly since I have no work tomorrow, or the modern day’s mentality where every day is a rush day always catching the time for work. I look up in the still dark sky, and then go towards the treasure trove or the hole full of rare and expensive minerals, rocks or ores.
I arrive at the hole. I look up and the birds flying above me chirping or hunting for worms. This is a sign that the area is now clean from radiation unlike 5 months ago where my supernova killing things within 3km radius wide. Oh, I forgot that there some sort of notification pop up when the chief granted me this land. Since I have access to this World’s System, I make some enhancements in my ‘Profile’ window.
Since I am admin level 1 in World’s system, I have a privilege to add functions or the term back in my old world is application or program. At first, it shows me black screen so I decide to type programming language that I know. I type ‘Java’ and all of a sudden the screen becomes colorful. I mean, there are menus, white space in the center for typing, and left and right panes to access some tools. In other words it becomes a user interface for programming. In my case, it becomes an Eclipse, a Java programming editor and compiler.
The system seems to adapt my Earth’s programming language (Java, .NET, SAP, etc) which is nice and choose Java since I’m good at it and its object oriented programming. Programmer or I.T. only knows about this stuff. Regarding the compiler and other necessary components, it seems the World’s system provides it. And after a long typing, running and debugging, I finish my goal in adding a new function. For now, I added ‘Target History’, ‘Crime Files’, ‘Log’ and ‘Notifications’ buttons or functions. Ok, let’s back why I am here in this hole. I choose “Notifications” and select the latest entry like an email and a familiar window pops up.
You have been granted a land.
It’s a hole filled with endless rock treasures at the ‘backyard’ of Kilate Clan.
Name it or leave its default name ‘Backyard’.
Do you want to name it?I choose yes, no one wants a ‘backyard’ as my land name. I think that this World’s System has a personality, ah, nevermind, let’s focus on the name. After 3 minutes of brainstorming myself, I name it and confirm it.
Your land is named Novasphere.I choose this name because it came from the ‘Supernova’ that causes perfect circle shape crater or hole. So ‘nova’ from supernova and ‘sphere’ from circular shape, and it sounds cool to me.

Since you are an administrator, you have a right to grant user access to Novasphere.
Do you want to activate user access control?
If yes, choose your users and give conditions if necessary.
If no, anyone can trespass and do anything what they like.Oh, It’s been a while to see these computer style questions. User access control? If I remember it correctly, this is once introduced by modern W*ndows to limit user’s access to restricted files or perform computer operation like installation or deletion which can cause system damage. But L*nux systems is the first to introduced this type of functionality at their earlier versions. Is W*indows just copy and paste L*nux innovations? Man, I will never surprise if they do copy and paste. Back in my old world, almost every product of different companies are almost the same with slight differences like cover, cost, functionalities, etc. In school, you can copy and paste homework answers, in work you can copy and paste programming code from your comrade, heck even in novels, there are copy paste *cough*. Okay let’s back in user access control.
I choose ‘yes’ and set some specific users and conditions on my property. The conditions that I set are:
1. Anyone who is in good terms to me can trespass and get any ore, minerals or rocks here.
2. Anyone who abuse or use the resources here for bad intentions cannot take anything from here even we are in good terms.
3. Anyone can look at my property, but cannot trespass.
4. Magic or powers from individual or tools that cause harm or destruction is jammed, prohibited or sealed in this area.
5. Anyone who violates the 2nd and 3rd conditions cannot move to other location and will dance nonstop on the spot until they will ask for forgiveness from the bottom of their hearts.
Break it down yo!
Yehaa!, I am really like an administrator, man, it makes things easier for me to manage this property. I don’t need guards or manual intervention to keep my property out of thieves or evildoers. Hehe, even this world is not virtual reality it looks like I have the ability like a GM in most games. The 4th condition is understandable to prevent future problems, so magic cannot be use in this area if it causes harm but strengthening magic is fine.
After that, the system asks me for confirmation and I choose ‘Confirm’. Then it asks ‘Are you really sure?’ and I choose ‘yes’ and the system asks again ‘Are you 100% sure?’, annoying, I choose ‘yes’ again and it asks me again ‘Sure? No regrets?’, what the heck is wrong with this system, one more annoying question and my blood will reach at the highest level and I swear that I will curse this system for eternity. I press ‘yes’ for the third time, I wait if there’s another annoying confirmation message.
Congratulations!
You have set your conditions in your property Novasphere.
The conditions will take effect immediately.Alright, it seems the system reads my temper. I am thinking about that this system has its own personality or someone manage it. Well, who knows about it, even my [World knowledge] doesn’t mention about this system. Okay, next in our agenda is to make a building or a shelter in my property. Since there are a lot of high end minerals around here, I will use them as building materials.

What should I make? A diamond building? A mithril one? A adamantium one? Man, this is hard to choose so I will use all of them.
I pick all the materials around me and start to shape all of them into building materials by breaking down the molecules. Manipulating the molecules of a material is far easier and faster than the traditional method of preparing the building materials like smelting, hammering the metal, the harder the metal, the longer you hammer, measure them one by one and those hard preparation labor, it’s a very sweaty tasks. But with just manipulating the molecules, no matter how hard it is, I can shape anything that I like even legendary materials cannot escape from my technique as long as it has molecules or shall we say it is a ‘matter’.
Next is the construction works where I build my dream building and I don’t intend to hammer a nail on the wall, mixing a cement, cutting woods by using a saw and those heavy labor traditional carpentry. I don’t want to try those because its sweaty, very tiresome and takes days to finish and I admit I am a little bit of a lazy person, just a little.
So to connect those building materials that I shape before, I use again my technique of manipulation of molecules. With this my building will stand in just few minutes and I can assure the strength and durability of my building, even magnitude 10 earthquake can withstand it. This building that I made will just shake its butt if a catastrophic earthquake happens in this area.
“So if you want to build your dream house, just contact me and I’ll build there”.
Who I’m talking to? Let’s get back to work. Well, but those are fine lines for advertisement if I choose to make a building company.
‘Want to build your dream house? Just contact me and I’ll build there’. Hehe that’s more I like it. Okay, where a little sidetrack here. I manipulate here and there, after few minutes, my shelter or the building I make stands before me.
It has 3 floors and a basement and no furniture yet. The foundation of my house is made of supremium, the hardest metal that I know by using my [Identify], so its super strong foundation. Adamantium floor tiles, yes they are made from adamantium. The windows are sliding types, it prevents light from getting out but let the outside light flow towards the house. It means no one can see inside the house but the residents can see the environment outside the house. So that during the night, no one will spot a shadow or see our activities inside from outside onlookers and during the day, I can see the glamorous environment and you know what I mean, the treasures. This is made using polycarbonate, thermoplastic and some layers of laminated glass, just like the bulletproof glass in my old world with a little bit enhancements of my nanotechnology and some strong materials making my glass impenetrable to some extent. It can withstand extreme heat or impact and most of all it's scratch less just like a gorilla glass found in modern day smartphones. Okay enough about the glass.
The walls are made from the mix materials of various ores, rocks, or minerals like gold, silver, or iron. I just mix of all ores and rocks and the inner layer of the wall is of course made of supremium. You will be mesmerize by the beauty of it; it looks like a treasure painted on the wall. I am surprise by my artistic skills. Hehe. The secret behind it is just simple art technique. And that is to put all random stones to random places here and there, its abstract to be exact. Before, I don’t like abstract because abstract paintings back in my old world are somewhat not to my liking. I don’t understand the meaning or what message they portray but they are priced highly. But because of what I did before, I have a slight understanding about abstract. And that’s makes me somewhat proud.
The ceiling is made of some marble materials making it illuminate if there is no light. I made some chairs, tables, drawers and any furniture from the materials I gathered. I made the chairs and some furniture not so hard or rough to prevent lethal accidents. All 3 floors are just big empty space with little furniture. This building is ready to become a mansion but I don’t plan to live here just to have some kind of resting area and oopps! I accidentally made it a little bigger. I think it can shelter 50 people.
As I think about additional furniture, my [Air Sense] detects a huge flock of flying creatures. I thought they are migratory birds but wait they are bigger than normal birds, 100 times bigger than birds, they are dragons. The huge flock of dragons heading this way, around 12,345 I think and their levels are ranging from three zeroes to four zeroes, it means that the average level is 10, 000 and the highest is level 30, 000. Whew!(‘Whistle’). Let’s check it out and I want to see the formation of dragons flying if they use v-formation just like in migratory birds but let’s expect that they fly with no formation since this is a different world and most modern common sense doesn’t apply here.
I already learned my lesson, ‘Expect the unexpected’.
Today is the grand execution of the great wise coward, Brovo, and I have a feeling that this will become a good day.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the future, a long line of people gathered at the entrance of the Joe’s Building, maybe hundreds or thousands of them, some will kiss the ground once they are at the doorstep and some will made some kind of prayer. This happens every day. Unlike tourist spot in Earth, this place has no vendors, no garbage and people will always maintain the beauty of the area. Why they are here? That’s because of certain masterpiece.
The ‘wall’s decoration’ becomes the most famous art around the world. It regarded as a priceless art or masterpiece, making all the painters, artisans, craftsman and all people related to arts around the world worship it and become more inspired in their work. The place becomes a holy ground for them. They call it the ‘Magnum Opus’ crafted by a great man of all, the father of artwork. The people placed their beautiful and great masterpieces near the wall as a tribute to the greatest masterpiece of all. But little they know, the wall is made by an artless or talent less lazy man who just put random stones at random places just for the sake of house decoration.

Restless Night, Pleasant Dreams
I lived my life as a dream. Waking up to attend parties with those of my elk, sleeping with the bright and pretty, leaving behind many promises and lies. I woke up from all of that nonsense. No... it is better to say that I was— shock awake.. I watched my father die like a dog trying to protect my mother. I watch my mother take her own life after my father died. I clearly remember sitting in the steam carriage, nursing a hangover. Praying for this trip to be over. I clearly remember the amber eyes and twelve foot wing span. I clearly remember the sound of iron doors being ripped open as if it was paper wall. I clearly remember other drivers screaming and the sound of collisions and explosions as people rekt in panic of escaping. I remember the death around me and the fear that gripped me. The soul stirring feeling that sent me fleeing while my parents were suck clean of blood. I remember thinking, berating myself hours later. Gripping my hair, slapping my palms into my forehead, questioning why I didn't carry my tools. Weeks pass since that time.. My guilt is gnawing at me and this pain isn't something I like. I almost feel like the man in the mirror isn't me. The me I used to be. Maybe, if I take revenge. I can put these demons to rest? Maybe, if I put these bastard in a grave. I can be someone new? Maybe, after they all die. This mirror won't haunt me with their faces?
