Reincarnated as the Only Human

I got back to work before the sun had even begun to rise, rolling off of Rhefia’s chest and waking myself up before dropping into the pit, observing the concrete floor and nodding to myself at how smooth and flat it had come out, the magical nature of the System rearing its head once more.

Giving my thanks to Reincantra and Demetra for this beautiful thing for the umpteenth time, I got to work by installing the wooden walls around the pit, leaving space for me to place the metal bars and begin pouring out the concrete again so that I could secure this underground structure completely.

Thankfully Rhefia’s magic form yesterday had done wonders to impact the soil in a beneficial way, leaving it sturdy and perfect for working with as I began finishing this portion of our house, using the minutes that the concrete needed to dry to measure everything out and cut the wooden planks for the flooring and support.

The only other person awake and up and about at this time was Heila, the Doe quietly flitting around the camp as she began preparing breakfast for everyone, nodding to me before returning to her routine, all while avoiding looking towards the tent that Aethisia, Camara, and Kalia resided in.

They were enjoying themselves still, the three girls having some morning sex to start the day as they waited for the sun to rise.

Going back to the foundation, I checked on the concrete and took down the walls when it was dry, revealing a lidless grey cube that wasn’t the largest, but had some space to do some work or store some things.

It was a start, and that was all I needed it to be, since it proved to me that I could do what I sought to do with this land.

With the walls and floor now done, I installed the thick wooden support beam at the center of the room and began to place the supports for the floor as well, changing my mind on how to do it a few times before settling on the basic + shape that would allow an even distribution of the weight above, using some nails and enhancing the structural support by ’upgrading’ the supports through the System with the use of more materials.

I could just place it there without a care in the world - since my System seemed to defy the laws of gravity and physics and reality whenever it pleased - but I didn’t want to take a chance with this stuff, so I made sure it was set up right before moving towards the top, hammering in the flooring and finishing the basement completely for this portion of our house.

To get down I left a portion of the floor uncovered, and I installed some stairs leading down into the now dark basement, which I would need to light up and furbish with some rugs and things on the walls to reduce the echo even more and warm the place up - concrete can be rather cold, both physically and visually.

By the time that I finished everything up, the sun was already peeking over the horizon and illuminating the grass and trees in its pale orange light, and everyone was beginning to walk out of their tents, yawning and stretching as they awakened.

Rhefia had continued to doze after waking up when I was finishing the cube, but when she heard me finish she sat up and yawned as well, rubbing at her eyes before stretching, her back cracking audibly and making her moan.

Somehow, that first stretch in the morning could be more pleasurable than even orgasming, and I would stand by that as a fact until I died.

Anyways, when she finally woke up, Rhefia observed the basement before tapping her large antlers, smiling wryly at me as she innocently said ”The entrance will need to be larger, and the room itself a bit larger too... especially for Prixisia and any other women who happen to be rather big.”

I nodded, observing the room before looking at my wife, taking measurements visually before shrugging, knowing that I would just need to dig deeper and create an entrance to the basement from outside the house, or at least have a portion of the house dedicated to allowing movement from floor to floor.

Not just stairs either, since the different races of the world had different limbs; Prixisia, for example, would find stairs to be a bit annoying to travers and a tad painful too, so maybe a thick pole for her to slither up?

I had seen her do something similar before, and her serpentine body did seem to hold enormous strength, so...

”What about the rest? Up here, on the surface; what’s the plan? Style, materials? Have any idea yet?”

Standing beside Rhefia, I let the issue regarding the flow of the house go for now and instead focused on what I wanted to do with the house itself.

”I was thinking a cobbled stone foundation, probably a foot or two tall before transitioning to wood. Maybe doing a sort of wattle and daub technique for the building itself? To provide color and flat surfaces. I have everything I need to make clay, so I could do that easily. With some pigments I could make any color as well, like red. Use wooden logs at the corners of the house and fill the area in between with the clay?”

I glanced at Rhefia as I finished speaking, and I saw her nodding before gesturing towards the area around us, saying ”Perhaps a blue to match the river? Or keep it white, maybe grey to remain a neutral color? Red would look nice too though, but I think we would need a darker color of any kind to keep heat in, no? Especially for the winters.”

”Blue..? I like the idea of either blue or red, but a nice stormy grey does appeal to me as well. Though it would need to match the wood as well, and we only have access to dark brown... Hmm...”

Stroking my chin, I stared at the surrounding area for a few moments more before sighing, smiling at Rhefia instead and saying ”Let’s eat first then take a dip in the river, hmm? Get a better idea after talking to everyone else.”
