The Queen of Scrolls never admits defeat

Chapter 299 Crazy Renovation
July 19th.

"July 19th?" Moran breathed a sigh of relief; thankfully, the entrance ceremony wasn't too early this time.

There's still time in two and a half months!
We have prepared plenty of mineral materials. Now that we've got some more wood, we can start the renovations.

If we hurry up, we might be able to finish ahead of schedule.

Moran quickly rode his broom out to gather wood.

The forest was full of trees, and the timber was very easy to obtain. Moran had prepared all the timber in one afternoon and piled it up next to the waterfall.

First, I went to the basement to prepare the materials for the common metal ore, then used the metallization technique to make water pipes and set up the drainage and water supply systems for the two washrooms and the kitchen.

During this process, Moran discovered that she could actually use her sculpting technique on several different metal ores to create alloys with better performance.

After the drainage system was completed, they began to mold the wood using the POM (Polymerization of Wood) technique.

First, we need to lay wooden flooring on both the first and second floors. Otherwise, no matter how smooth the stone floor is, it will still look a bit rough and not as warm and beautiful as wooden flooring.

Then there are the interior doors and furniture.

The furniture in the kitchen and dining room is very simple. Just put the {mobile kitchen card} in there. You only need to make a larger dining table, a few dining chairs, and a bar counter by the window.

The living room should have a sofa base, coffee table, a small table by the fireplace, and storage cabinets along the wall.

There were no books in the study, only a witch's book that she carried with her. So she built a wall of cabinets to store herbs, potions, alchemy materials, and finished products.

The cabinet only had a wooden door frame; there's a whole bunch of crystals and gems in the basement!

Then there's a large desk by the window, a chair that doesn't have a cushion yet, and a large workbench.

The bedroom on the second floor has a super-sized bed, big enough for five or six little witches to sleep in a starfish position.

The reason she didn't prepare a second bedroom was that she wanted everyone to sleep together when friends visited.

The happiest thing is to lie in bed with your friends, covered by a quilt, chatting together!
Then there's the dressing table, the wall-to-wall wardrobe, shoe cabinet, clothes rack, and a full-length mirror frame.

There are also sofa bases and coffee tables in the rest area, tatami mats by the window... various chairs, stools, shelves, wall cabinets...

In short, the room should be filled with all the functional areas.

She used the remaining wood to make picture frames, used the Book of Cards to make paint cards and paper cards, and then used the copying technique to quickly copy the world-famous paintings from Blue Star's memories onto paper. She framed them and hung them in various places in the room to decorate the walls.

I also kept some picture frames, paints, and paper, and made an easel, which I placed in a corner of my bedroom. I plan to paint a few portraits as a memento when I have time.

After the wooden furniture was made, it was time for the ore to come in handy.

She used sculpting techniques to create cloisonné enamel windows from white crystal and copper ore, and reshaped various colored gemstone fragments into color blocks to fill in the colors.

After the glass of the four large windows was installed, various vases, flower pots, tea sets, and tableware made of crushed crystal were placed inside.

Broken gemstones are used to embellish and decorate furniture and various utensils.

She also made a swing chair next to the fireplace out of metal ore, big enough for a person to snuggle into.

The empty stone house suddenly became full, adding a lot of color.

Meanwhile, the high-yield cotton trees and various flowers that could be used as dyes planted in the valley also grew under her constant magical nourishment.

Moran collected the cotton and used her sewing magic to make all sorts of cotton fabrics, quilts, and cushions.

The sofa and bed were finally no longer hard; they were filled with all sorts of cushions and pillows, making the room feel much cozier.

By the time all this was done, a month had passed.

Magic was incredibly convenient, greatly increasing her efficiency in crafting items; otherwise, these tasks would never have been completed in a month. At first glance, the water curtain hut finally looked like a comfortable place to live.

However, the details are still a bit rough.

Moran also planted some green climbing plants on the hillside next to the waterfall.

Then he rode his broom into the mountains and forests, hunted some wild beasts with soft fur, and dug up some magical plants that were both ornamental and had some medicinal value.

After processing the wild animals, the meat was kept for consumption, and the fur was made into carpets to be laid throughout the living room and bedroom.

These magical plants don't require much sunlight and are suitable for indoor planting, in flowerpots indoors. Others can only be grown outdoors, in valleys.

Another half month has passed since I started doing all this.

The water curtain cabin is now completely recognizable.

But that's not all; she hasn't prepared the most crucial magic circle for this residence yet!

Moran went to the basement and moved all the magical ores and some good-quality common ores to the workbench in the study, where he began to prepare intensively.

First, there are the magic lamps in each room.

Chandeliers, table lamps, and wall lamps are all needed.

Living in the mountains requires careful attention to lighting; many magic lamps would be needed to provide enough light.

Fortunately, magic lamps for ordinary lighting don't require magic ore; high-quality crystal ore is sufficient.

Fortunately, she found a lot of large, high-quality white crystals.

The main lights are made of large white crystals, while other common crystals of different colors are used as decorations around the main lights. Iron ore and copper ore are used for the lamp holders, creating a unified style.

Dozens of lights were made and installed, and when all the lights were turned on at night, the room was as bright as day.

Then came all sorts of magic circles.

These all require magical ores to make array stones.

First, there are temperature-regulating magic circles, humidity-regulating magic circles, and dust-removing magic circles covering the entire cabin.

The temperature-regulating and humidity-regulating magic array can freely adjust indoor temperature and humidity.

The inner area experiences four seasons, including rainy and dry seasons. With this magic circle, you can stay home comfortably.

The dust-removing magic circle saved her the trouble of cleaning herself, keeping the floors, walls, and furniture surfaces in the house dust-free.

However, she still washes her own clothes using the Cleaning spell. Although she could use a washing machine, she feels that combining the Cleaning and Drying spells is more convenient and faster.

Next, there were warning and protective magic circles covering the entire valley.

These two magic circles require the most magic ore. Even though they are only low-level magic circles, their large range has used up almost 70% of her magic ore reserves.

If she hadn't reduced the effective lifespan of the magic arrays, limiting them to only one year, these low-level magic ores might not have been enough.

Simply bury the array stones with the alchemical runes drawn on them in various places on the cliff.

This protective magic circle is more than capable of repelling and driving away wild beasts.

In addition, there are invisible magic circles to be used on windows, doors, and chimney openings, which can hide the exposed features of a dwelling.

After it is activated, from the outside, the mountain wall looks the same as before, and there is no indication of any dwelling.
