Year 1036 of the Zhang Dynasty - Unnamed plains - Outside of bunker
[Are you ready to start?]
(Lets do this)
The First thing I did was to create a water well digging with Earth Manipulation. After all, water is important.
-First month of preparation-
The schedule for Yue and Tang was similar to the one I received back in the village.
In the morning they will train their bodies, in the afternoon they will hunt spiritual creatures with me and in the night I will teach them arithmetic and the new writing style of the world.
“It really doesn't bother you gaining muscle in the sun?“
One day, Tang asked Yue that while training.
“I never asked for this pale and weak body, it was the Mo family that imposed it to me“ Yue
[The cultivators standards of beauty are weird, be it for men or women]
“...It displeases you?“ Yue
“NO!“ Tang
An instant answer.
“I don't dislike it...it is more pleasant to the sight this way“
His voice was weaker in the second part.
“What?“ Yue
“What?“ Tang
It is good that they get along.
-Second month of preparation-
I completed the spiritual creatures repellent. It was rather simple, I only made a minuscule hole in one Mana Stone to let the Mana escape in the air.
[Now we need to test it]
......
...
After leaving a Spiritual Repellent in the nest of a bird type spiritual creature for a week, it was obvious that it was avoiding the perforated stone in a radius of three meters.
[It works and it looks like it will keep expelling mana 0.5 MP per day]
(So it will last about three years, that is fine)
-Third month of preparation-
I created a 50 x 50 meters perimeter of Earth walls with Spiritual Repellents sticking out.
(Now is the time to build the firsts houses outside the empire)
I build three houses of four meters in height and in the center of each one there were a column with a Spiritual Repellent in it.
“How many rooms do you want in your houses?“
I asked Yue and Tang about it because they were the owners. We spend that day furnishing each house.
-Fourth month of preparation-
(They finally reached level 27)
[If we take your case as an example, leveling up more will be too time consuming]
(It is time to train their Skills, especially hers)
“For now on you two will train your skills instead of hunting“

I talked to Yue and Tang.
“Your schedule will consist in using MP until it runs out, muscle training, sleeping, using MP, sleeping, attend my classes and using MP“
“Won't it be difficult to sleep that much?“ Tang
“Using MP will make you sleepy“ Linjian
It was like that with me.
“I would like to keep hunting“ Yue
[Getting trapped again isn't why she is here]
“I understand that this is asking too much, so the Iron day and the Bronze day will be yours“ Linjian
We already have a safe zone and they are strong enough to run away from danger.
“Ours?“ Yue
“?“ Tang
“Yes, you can do whenever you want in those days“
-Fifth month of preparation-
Now that they are independent I started building a bigger perimeter.
[70x70 KM... I think it will be enough for now]
(The plan is that, but it will take some time)
[Compared to my world, you are doing it very fast]
The Earth walls are five meters tall and every five meters there where a Spiritual Repellent.
[You will have to make more Mana Stones]
-Six months of preparation-
“Yue“ Linjian
“Yes?“ Yue
One day while the three of us were exercising, I asked Yue something Maria wanted to know before.
“In the scrolls you read, did they explain the composition of the world?“ Linjian
“The composition of the world?“ Yue
“Yes, how many continents there are and how many cities“ Linjian
I couldn't answer this.
“There are five continents, but two of them are too cold to inhabit“ Yue
[They must be the poles of the world]
“The three continents are called East continent, South continent and West continent. We are now in the west one“
“Where does the emperor live?“
“The emperor lives in the island that is considered the center of the world, The Emperor Island“
[Being the center of the world surely boosts his pride]
“And there was nothing about the number of cities or their names“ Yue
[I suppose that is some kind of military secret]
“I heard from some guards that in this continent there are four cities“
Tang joined the conversation.
“Two of those are lesser cities with gold rank lords, one is a alchemy oriented city...“ Tang
[That must be the city we came from]
“And the last is called the strongest city of the west“ Tang
“Do you know how they are called and where they are?“ Linjian
“No, I don't really cared about these things“ Tang

[Well, we will have to discover these things ourselves]
-Seven months of preparation-
The 70x70 KM perimeter of walls was ready.
[Good, now you need to build the interior]
(Some houses, roads, wells, sewers and some starting crops)
[Lets look for some wild plants to bring in]
...
One night Tang came to my house.
“Master Linjian, there is something I would like to ask for you to do for me...“
-Eight months of preparation-
Close to a natural flower bed within the walls, the three of us were present.
“Now I declare you husband and wife“ Linjian
The happy couple kiss in front of me at the same time I share their happiness applauding.
[*whistle* Congratulations to the newly weds!]
In one of the fingers of both the couple there was a matching diamond ring that I created.
(I got to admit that matching rings is a nice tradition of your world)
[It looks cute]
(They really liked the clothes too)
Yue was wearing something that Maria calls a White Dress and Tang have something called black suit, both transmuted by myself.
[That is a must]
“Yue, Tang“ Linjian
“Yes?“ both
I hate to interrupt but...
“As you two know, I want to change the way society is right now“ Linjian
“We know“ both
“Therefore, I would like the help of you two“ Linjian
“Of course“ Tang
“Without you we would be dead now, ask whenever you want“ Yue
“I would like the two of you to receive a surname from me“ Linjian
“...?“ Tang
“...“ Yue
“But not to form a sect, a surname only for you two and your future children“ Linjian
“Only for us?“ Tang
“I see“ Yue
“Will you accept it?“ Linjian
“Of course“ Tang
“I said whenever you want“ Yue
The two of them smile to me.
[You really couldn't ask for better companions]
“Okay, from today onwards you two will be called Yue Lynn and Tang Lynn“ Linjian
This surname was apparently the one used by Maria's grandmother.
“The name first?“ both
-Nine months of preparation-
The couple now lives in a new and bigger house that I created.
[They really liked the new clothes]
Tang now always use a suit and Yue always a dress.
(Hmmm, maybe I should wear another type of clothes too)
Anyways, the construction of the interior of the walls is complete. Now I just focus in gathering new crops from forests and meadows.
[Tomato, Wheat, Onion, Potato and more. This is great]
I don't know any of those but Maria says that they are tasty.
(Lets plant them inside the walls)
-Ten months of preparation-
I completed the last construction.
[Was it really necessary?]
(Yes, it was)
In the center of the New settlement a Bronze statue stands.
With a base of 120 meters in radius and a height of 100 meters the statue of the most beautiful woman walking while grabbing the hand of the cutest girl was ready to shine to any migrant.
(With this everything is ready)
......
...
Four days after I called Yue and Tang.
“This day is the day, today a new era begins“ Linjian
“A new era?“ Tang
“...“ Yue
[Now you look like a madman]
“From now on, I and every human of this new world will not follow any emperor and therefore...“
“...“ Tang and Yue
The look in their eyes changed, they somehow predicted that these words here and now were the start.
“I declare today as the beginning of the year 0 of the Human Calendar“ Linjian
“!!!“ Tang
“!!??“ Yue
“In front of the statue of my loved ones. I once again Promise to change this world, every continent, every city, every person“ Linjian
[Wow, the mana inside you cant control itself]
“What is that light?“ Yue
“A blue aura?! that shouldn't exist!“ Tang
“I will show the Light of the Holy Land of Xue to everyone in this world, one by one“ Linjian
...
Year 0 of the Human Calendar - Holy Land of Xue - In front of the statue of the goddesses of life and peace

8 318An Unwavering Craftsman
Given the hereditary nature of classes, everyone expects Damien—the child of two high-tiered adventurers—to be granted a high-tier combat class of his own. Expectations are betrayed, however, when Damien finds himself instead saddled with a crafting class of the lowest possible tier: [Neophyte Tailor]. Left practically crippled compared to those with better classes, Damien wants to avoid becoming a pawn in the machinations of the nobility, desiring only to grind his level in peace while wondering why the usual rules of inheritance were broken. Was it his desire to excel by his own effort, rather than an unearned blessing from a god? Did the Five take offence at his opinions on the unfairness of hereditary classes? Or maybe it was something to do with the alien voice that intruded on his ceremony? A voice that offers great power, and freedom from the tyranny of the Five, but that never names its price. This story is litRPG-lite. While the class someone possesses controls most of their lives, people don't get dinged at for every level they gain, nor can they see their status without undergoing a special ritual. The MC has no romantic interest. Crafting is merely a way to game the system, and doesn't feature heavily in the story, aside from a few descriptions on how they're carrying out the system abuse. There is, on one unfortunate occasion, maths. The pace is quick. This was a participant in the Spring 2022 writathon. (i.e. it was posted as-written at high speed. I may give it another editing pass in the future.)
