Chapter 17: It is rmended that you build a church


    How are things, Donga-san? Is there anything not to your liking?


    Hello, vige chief. No, we have noints at all. How can we when on top of the delicious food, you also provide us with great shelter. Not to mention, we dont need to worry about all the fighting going on. This ce is like paradise to us. All of us are truly grateful.


    A few days had passed since Donga-sans group arrived.


    They seemed to be pleased with their life here in the vige, so I as the vige chief was happy as well.


    Yes, Donga-san and his group were our newest vigers.


    There were 44 of them, bringing the total number of vigers to 97. <em>Just a few short of a hundred.</em>


    I needed to prepare things for them first though, such as building new terrace houses.


    Fortunately, we had an abundance of crops from our harvest, so our food supply shouldnt be an issue for a while. Just to be on the safe side in the future though, I decided to add 4 new fields.


    Much like with Berith-sans group, majority of Donga-sans group were women and children. Even among the children, there were more women than men.


    I had used Viger Appraisal on them, and designated each of them a job they could do. That said, there were only a few types of jobs avable at the moment, so their current duties were likely not the one most suitable for them.


    Also, I found out that there were 6 of them who had the potential to have Gifts. Much like before, they needed to receive a blessing first before they could use those Gifts, so it felt like wasting resources, which in turn made me felt frustrated.


    Anyway, around the time when Donga-sans group were beginning to grow ustomed to their life in the vige


    Vige Chief! Theres a group approaching the vige. They look like refugees as well!


    Another group hade. This time, there were 70 of them.


    What will you do? I know you want to ept them, but that would put us over our current capacity


    Yeah


    Selen said so, and I couldnt help but agree.


    Because the points I earned daily had increased, there was no problem point-wise. In terms of food too; on top of the grand harvest, Selen and the others were diligently hunting for food as well, so we had a surplus for now.


    The issue was space. There just wasnt enough left to build additional terrace houses, much less fields.


    <em>Maybe we can ask households with only a few members to share a unit. Or maybe</em>


    <<If the number of vigers exceed 100, your vige will level up again, thus increasing its maximum area.>>


    Oh, is that so?


    <<Yes. For that reason, it is rmended to ept them as vigers.>>


    <em>Ive always wondered this, but on what criteria does this guide bases its rmendation? Moreover,</em><em>how does it know my exact situation?</em>


    At any rate, I did as was rmended and epted the new refugees as vigers.


    <<The 76 people represented by Leon are now vigers.>>


    <<Ta-ta-ta-dah! Congrattions! Because you now have more than 100 vigers, your vige has be level 4!>>


    <<400 vige points have been acquired as level up bonus.>>


    <<You can now build more kinds of facilities.>>


    <<Maximum vige area has been increased.>>


    <<The vige skill [Intruder Detection] has been acquired.>>


    Just like the guide said, my vige leveled up and expanded its maximum area.


    I was somehow able to sense how big my vige was now. However, it would seem that the vige was now double of its size when it was level 3.


    <em>Does that mean that my vige doubles in size each level up? Huh? Then its possible for it to expand to an absurd degree, right? Hmm, yeah, yeah, no way thats gonna happen.</em>


    Leaving that aside, I checked out the new facilities I could build.


    Store: 80


    Workshop: 80


    Public Lavatory: 80


    Rehabilitation Facilities: 100


    Church: 150


    <em>A store should be a building where a merchant can run their business. Meanwhile, a workshop should be a kind of atelier for craftsmen. Okay, but then what is a publicvatory? Also, a rehabilitation facility? </em>


    What I was most curious of all though was the church.


    <<It is rmended that you build a church.>>


    Almost insisting, the guide rmended so.


    Even so, without a priest, there was no meaning in particrly having one. We could use the building for something else, but because it required 150 points to be built, there were far better alternatives.


    Why do you rmend that?


    <<If someone with the potential to receive [Oracle] prays in a church, its possible for the Gift to be received.>>


    Huh? Wait, are you saying we dont have to go to another church?


    <<Yes.>>
