The Rise Of Rim
Chapter 5 - Building a House

Rim races can eat anything, but not everything. They can eat raw meat just like a dragon, but the taste will not be the same as that felt by the dragons.

The rim tongue mixes with dragons and humans, but the human side is more dominant so they sometimes prefer to eat meat that has been roasted using fire, but that does not mean they cannot eat raw meat.

In his first place, after Louis had brought the demon cow into place, he made a short knife from a wooden twig that he had collected with a system to peel off the parts of the demon cow's body.

He separated the flesh, organs and skin of the demon cow and piled it in different areas. After that, he turned to the devil's beef.

"It looks disgusting."

Louis held one of the cuts of beef and was reluctant to eat it. It looked disgusting in his eyes because he was not used to eating raw meat, yet he himself was very hungry and could not help it.

Let's try it, that's what he thinks. He brought a piece of beef into his mouth and chewed it slowly. One bite did not make him feel anything.

Two bites later made him feel something strange but the next bite began to feel strong.

Until the bite after, he could taste the devil beef with a bland taste.

That's not delicious.

"It feels ordinary, probably because our tongues are a mixture of dragons and humans. Hm... What if it's baked? Does it feel normal on my tongue?"

After that, he threw away the thought. Because a while ago, he tried to make a fire, but because this forest was different from the snow forest in general, it was so cold that even the fire could not grow and last long.

As a result, he had to eat it raw.

"I should be thankful I can eat now."

Although it felt ordinary, the piece of meat he could still swallow. He should be grateful for what is now and not complain just because the food is not good.

As his mind began to be enlightened, he received all the pieces of meat in his mouth and chewed them one after another.

\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=

A short while later, the demon beef had already finished he ate and he felt full at this moment. Satisfaction can last a long time, he must use it to build a house.

Because there was no way he could sleep in the middle of a forest filled with monsters.

After eating, he made another axe and cut off the wooden stems one after another until they formed neat pieces. It became faster and easier as his stomach filled up.

However, only 30 logs are still not enough to make a simple house. Louis made many wooden axes from the remaining twigs, with which he cut the tree trunks around until it could meet his needs.

Afterwards, the tree trunk that he cut down, he cut again into neat pieces.

One piece, two pieces, three, four and so on, it goes on until it's enough to make a house.

After all the trunks of the tree he cut, he started to make his own house.

He lifted the pieces of wood and began to make the basics up to the foundation and complete the contents from the side, bottom and top.

The work of making the house lasted long enough, because it was not easy because he sometimes misplaced pieces of wood because of wrong and inaccurate measurements.

However, it does not matter because the stamina is strong and never tired. He is sometimes confused by that, he never feels tired, it is the main factor that makes him able to build a house quickly.

Usually, making a house takes a short time, it is because of physical strength and stamina that does not allow it to be done as soon as possible.

However, Louis had everything he needed, stamina, a strong physique and accurate measurements, even though it was sometimes wrong, but only in half an hour, he said, the building of the house is half finished and in a few hours will be created into a perfect house.

After a few hours, the house he woke up from morning to evening was so and stood firmly.

"The house is simple, but it's a strong fortress."

Usually, the fantasy isekai-isekai that the system of making houses, villages and cities, is not it great? Louis thinks he can do all that.

Starting from a small house and slowly creating villages and towns and harem to have a child, this is a dream of a man.

Louis smiled then happily said, "Isekai turned out to be as fun as I thought, I must be the main character who was given a super thick armor plot,"

Pleasure filled his heart, he looked at his house in awe thinking that it was a great masterpiece.

The simple house that Louis built was not big nor small, it was of medium size. In addition, the building is box-shaped and the roof is made of wood. There was no glass in his window, he made small, long pieces of wood to cover some of it and the rest to make air in.

Coinciding with his home, it gets dark and the mysterious forest starts to make strange noises that sometimes scare Louis.

Louis walked on a pile of snow entering his dark house in the absence of light. After entering he turned around to cover the door.

\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=

Moments later, in the dark night with a strong blizzard. The wooden house that was in the middle of the mysterious forest was buffeted by the harsh night wind.

Until making the house collapsed partly that makes the top hollow. The cold snow filled the house until there was no room left.

Inside the house, Louis who had been sleeping was shocked by the collapse of his house. His eyes widened because he did not know what to do.

His face froze, he wanted to talk, but his mouth could not move, besides his body lost balance and his brain was out of control.

"I-I. built this house .. from the morning." When his mouth tried to open, he could only repeat those words continuously.

\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=

The next morning was not a good day for Louis. After his house was destroyed by a blizzard, it was shattered into pieces of wood strewn across the forest.

Last night he also could not fall asleep because he was tired of repairing his collapsed house. Because of the collapse of his house, he now learned one thing, building a house in this forest is not even in choice.

"Damn! If I knew it had to be like this, then I wouldn't have built that house."

In the middle of the forest, Louis walked in annoyance. After his house collapsed, he thought about going to a nearby village to survive.

The destination is the city of Oirat in the North.

[Oirat city]

After walking quite a distance, he reached the oirat city within half an hour. There, he couldn't get in.

He looked at the 2 guards in front of the gate wearing armor with swords on their waists. Their faces were very different from Louis', but their bodies had something in common.

The guards are rim.

Louis walked towards them, with a wooden sword in his hand. He only wears shorts without clothes.

The guards who saw Louis walking towards them were immediately startled, they thought Louis was a runaway slave and a beggar because he saw Louis with nothing but a wooden sword and shorts.

The guards immediately asked politely but firmly. "Young man, who are you? Why are you only wearing shorts, have you been robbed?"

Louis was not sure if he could enter the city, but as long as he politely answered their questions, he could definitely enter. Louis replied, "that's right, I'm from a faraway village. On the way, I was robbed by a bunch of bandits, horses and my money was taken, not only that, my clothes were also taken and left only these shorts,"

After hearing that, the 2 guards who had been stern-faced now faded away from sympathizing with Louis. Soon, they became angry and cursed the bandits.

"So you had a bad day, still lucky your life survived,"

"The bandits deserve to die, they just want to take away someone else's property..."

Louis silently listened to their words, he did not want to speak any longer.

"So, what's your name?" Ask guards.

Louis replied, "My name is Louis, from Dhoren."

Dhoren is the name of the city that is far from here, he deliberately called the name of the city so that his identity is not easily dismantled.

"Dhoren? Far away, you must be scared, son,"

"It's okay, I'm used to this. Gentlemen, if I can get into this village, I need to eat and warm myself up,"

"What did you say? Of course you can come in, helping people is our job,"

Fyiuh, Louis could sigh now, with the approval of those two guards, then he was already safe for now.

"really? I'm really grateful, may god Hector bless you."

God Hector? That is the trust in this world. Each race has different beliefs, cultures and customs. Louis had this information in his memory.

After convincing the guards, Louis was allowed to enter the city.
