Chapter 25 Settling Down! The Eight-Cloud Residence in SAO!
Because Cilia joined the Moonlit Black Cat Clan, Yakumo Sukuna began his own solo clearing process.
For a period of time afterwards, Yakumo Suke seemed to have a huge explosion in luck, and actually found the BOSS rooms on floors 21, 22, 23, and 24 all within one month.
In SAO, all players' eyes were almost numb, and Yui Muko rushed to the 25th floor in one breath!
Because he alone cleared all the extra monsters in the 21st to 24th floor of the maze district, and monopolized the BOSS rewards on these floors, Yakumo Sumi finally saved up enough money to have sufficient financial resources to buy his own house.
In SAO, although battles between players and monsters as well as other actions may destroy the scenery, these destroyed sceneries will automatically recover after a certain period of time.
Due to this setting, players wanting to cut down trees and build houses in the wilderness or other places has become an impossible task. To have a house of their own, players only have two options: one is to spend gold coins directly purchasing existing residences from real estate NPCs in town, and the other is to find a real estate NPC to buy a construction permit and blueprint, then find a place they like in the wilderness and use the construction permit to let the system build a house according to the blueprint.
Well-built houses and their affiliated areas will be automatically divided into safe zones, where any PK behavior is prohibited.
The second method costs far more gold coins than the first one.
Baiyun Mo's current assets were originally enough to buy an existing house in the town, but first, there was no place that satisfied him among the floors he had conquered before, and secondly, he didn't want to live in a crowded and noisy town, so the matter of buying a house had been delayed.
Until now he has cleared all the way up to level 25 in one breath and finally met the conditions for buying a house.
As for Hachiguma Ink choosing a location to build a house, there's no doubt it would be the 22nd floor of Aincrad!
I'm still missing a controllable loli at home, cough cough, I didn't say anything.
This is a lake surrounded by mountains on all sides.
In the lush forest all around, from time to time came a clear and pleasant bird call, the breeze blew by, and the leaves rustled with a soft sound.
Summer breeze.
The lake's surface sparkles under the sunlight, reflecting the surrounding mountains, as well as the azure sky and white clouds. Fish occasionally jump out of the water. On the lakeside lives a group of sika deer, these lovely creatures are not attackable wild monsters but system-set ornamental animals.
By the lake, there was a wide open space, and Hachi Uma Moku was standing on this empty ground, letting the gentle breeze blow his long hair and clothes.
"It's really a beautiful place, and it's not inferior to Gensokyo..."
Yui sighed, "Places like this are almost extinct in the real world, and even in SAO, places as beautiful as this are rare."
"Maybe I should take a good rest for a while..."
He opened the system panel, clicked on the toolbox, and a blue light flashed by. In Yún Mò's hand was an additional small bronze token and a roll of sheepskin paper.
It is the building permit and house blueprint.
After reading the Building Order for a while, Ba Yun Mo directly clicked on Use.
"Please select a building location!"
Seeing the system window pop up in front of her eyes, Yayumi Moku directly pointed her finger, which was emitting a blue glow, at the empty space in front of her.
"Location selection completed, checking if it meets construction requirements..."
"Inspection completed, requirements met!"
"Please adjust the orientation of the house..."
Looking at the left and right arrow buttons that popped up in front of her, Yayumi adjusted the orientation of the house carefully. When the front of the house was facing the lake, she clicked OK.
"Preparations are complete, construction is about to begin!"
"Under construction..."
"Construction completed! Congratulations to the player for owning their own residence! The current residence is detected as a high-end house, with naming rights. Please name it!"
"What's in a name?" Hachirou Moku was taken aback, looking at the beautiful Japanese-style courtyard before him. After some thought, he said: "Hachirou Residence!"
"Naming completed!"
A blue light flashed by, and above the exquisite and elegant courtyard gate in front of me appeared an ancient plaque with three large characters "Bayunju".
Looking at the Bayunju in front of him, a hint of nostalgia flashed in Bayun Mo's eyes.
He chose for a long time, and finally selected this one from countless system diagrams, which is similar to the Japanese-style courtyard of his home in Gensokyo.
"Wah!"
The white cat on his shoulder saw the sudden appearance of the courtyard in front of him, let out a happy cry, jumped down from Yagumo Kuro's shoulder, and happily jumped back and forth under the cherry blossom trees in the courtyard, occasionally rolling over like a small dog to show its belly.
"This little guy..."
Watching Bai's cute appearance, Bachiyu Moku suddenly lost his smile.
As a high-end residence, it naturally has many functions. After the ink tone system panel was set up, a delicate pet house appeared under the cherry blossom tree in the courtyard.
Bai saw the pet house, first ran over to affectionately rub against Bayunmo's pants leg, then slipped into his own little world and didn't come out.
Entering Yui's residence, Yui began to look around at her own home in SAO.
After entering the gate, there is a very secluded courtyard. The courtyard has cherry blossom trees planted in it, with a pond in the center and artificial hills and pavilions scattered around. The pond has lotus flowers planted in it, and among the lotus flowers you can see ornamental goldfish swimming back and forth.
After passing through the courtyard, it is the living room. Inside, there are no modern tables and chairs, but low tables and cushions are neatly arranged. On both sides of the living room are side rooms, one is a study, and the other is an empty room used as a warehouse.
Although the warehouse is almost purely decorative according to SAO's game settings, Yui Kanzaki was extremely satisfied with it.
Walking through the main hall and side hall, passing through a winding corridor, I arrived at the bedroom.
The decorations in the bedroom are still mainly antique, but unlike traditional Japanese houses, the mattress is no longer laid on tatami mats, and instead, a carved wooden bed with silk curtains is placed in the room.
The mattress and quilt on the soft couch look extremely beautiful, with exquisite workmanship, and the touch is also particularly comfortable.
There is also an incense burner in the bedroom, and the whole room is filled with a faint fragrance that touches people's hearts.
Looking out of the carved window in the bedroom, you can see the beautiful cherry blossoms in the courtyard.
"It feels good." Yayumi Moku nodded in satisfaction and walked out of the bedroom, then checked the other two guest rooms.
The overall decoration of the room is similar to that of the bedroom, but the furniture looks a bit different.
In addition, there are also special bathrooms and kitchens in the house, and the furniture inside is arranged very neatly.
As a high-end residence and such a large courtyard, Yayoi Sumi naturally couldn't live here alone.
He needs some NPC servants.
He brought up the system panel and spent half a day browsing through the house function options before Eight Clouds Ink directly used gold coins to purchase three NPC maid girls.
"Master." A blue light flashed by, and three girls wearing maid outfits appeared before Yakumo Saku. They bowed respectfully and said in unison.
"Call me Young Master from now on."
Yayumi Moku thought for a moment and changed the maid's way of addressing her.
"Yes, young master."
These NPC maids possess some of the simplest intelligence, able to perform simple serving tasks under the command of Yayoi Mutsuki, such as sweeping the courtyard and preparing meals.
Although the maid's cooking skills were not high, Yagumo Taro himself had not learned to cook as a life skill, and he could not go to the town restaurant every time it was mealtime, so he could only make do with this.
