[WN] Shut-In : Chapter 45


Chapter 45

Change


Translator : PolterGlast


I tried to picture the power of [Home] in my head.

Then I saw a new item added to the list that I had not seen before.

 

Let's see, this is... it seems that the power newly released in LV4 is called expansion.

 

If you take the words literally, it seems like the power to expand the inside of the house... but this is a power that can be obtained at a higher LV than that refresh.

My expectations are rising even more.

 

"Expansion"

 

When I actually said it out loud and used it, a board of light suddenly appeared in front of me.

 

"Please select the facility you want to expand."

 

When I touched the board, the facilities that could be expanded appeared.

 

Training room (status improvement)

Simulation room (combat skill improvement)

 

Currently, only these two facilities can be expanded.

There seem to be other things that can be expanded, but in the space below these two, ????? (unavailable) is written, and the color of the letters is gray.

 

Probably, like the LV10 magic of light magic that I can't use yet, it will be activated by some kind of trigger.

 

However... I see.

I thought it would remodel the house and make the layout bigger, but it seems to be a much more practical power than I thought.

 

Both status improvement and combat skill improvement are necessary for me now.

 

After all, I've only been pushing through with magic so far.

The activation speed itself is getting faster... but if you say this is a combat technique, I feel a little different.

 

As a result of worrying about which one to choose, I decided to expand from the training room for status improvement.

You might think that's all, but I'm serious.

 

In this world, status is justice.

I can say that because I'm probably the one who has received the most benefits from status.

 

Frankly, combat skills are something that takes a long time to cultivate, and even if they improve a little, it will be nothing more than a drop in the bucket.

 

Even if I spent a month in the simulation room, I don't think I would be able to use swordsmanship that would make me stand up to a knight.

 

If that's the case, what I need now is status to be able to push through with numerical violence anyway.

 

But how do I do the expansions? Just tap on this for now?

 

When I tapped it, the screen advanced.

 

 

 

[Please pour in MP. Filling MP 0/10000]

 

Eh... it needs 10000 MP!?

 

It needs a lot MP more than I thought... Loos like I need to squeeze in a dungeon for a while.

 

Dungeon LV up or [Home]... if it's a choice between the two, the answer is clear.

 

"I will choose [Home] without hesitation!"

 

I believe in the potential of this [Home] gift.

 

It was [Home] that gave me food and water and gave me time when I was reluctant to even go outside.

 

It was [Home] that raised the skill LV of magic and gave me the power to live in this world.

 

There is no reason to doubt [Home].

 

It was easy to pour in MP if I touched the light board and imagined it.

When I used up all the MP I could use now, I became sleepy rapidly.

About five more times... the dungeon exploration will be delayed for a bit, but I have no choice but to do this.

 

 

 

After that, I decided to stop conquering the dungeon for a while and continue to pour in MP.

 

After three days of eating and sleeping, today I finally reached the designated amount of 10,000 MP.

 

"Now, let's see what happens..."

 

Pour in MP and maximize the charging MP.

Then...

 

[Expansion completed.]

 

At the same time as such a message appeared, there was a crashing sound as if something heavy had fallen.

 

I'm in the living room now, but the sound is coming from above.

 

I went to my room to see where the sound was coming from.

Inside my room... there is a door I have never seen before.

 

"Something... is very strange."

 

In the corner of my seven-tatami room where I've lived for a long time.

There I find a completely unfamiliar relic.

 

A section where there used to be a window, which was hidden by a curtain so that it could not be seen from the outside.

The window that should have been there was removed along with the curtain... and for some reason, a door was installed there.

 

A glossy door, made of what seemed to be mahogany, was attached to the room in a very unnatural way, out of place with the posters and desks in the room.

 

I opened the door nervously.

Then there was...

 

"This... no matter how I look at it, it's a gym, isn't it?"

 

A space that looked like a gym, clearly larger than my house, was spreading out--.
