Year 1 of the Human Calendar - Southwest district of the Holy Land of Xue - Linjian house
*chirp* *chirp*
I wake up to the sounds of birds.
[Good morning Linjian]
(Good morning Maria)
I eat breakfast, do some exercises, take a shower and go to the center of the Holy Land of Xue.
This is my routine every morning.
...
My right knee touches the ground and I close my eyes.
“Please look after me as always“ Linjian
(...)
[You really don't get bored of doing that?]
(No, I don't)
[...We already have all our plans to start this kingdom]
One week has passed since the start of the year.
[This wasn't my area of expertise in my world, so I hope this works]
(We planned it the best we could, if there is something to change we will do it together with the people)
I get up.
“I will come back tomorrow“ Linjian
(It is time to create a new society)
-Year 1 of the Holy Land of Xue-
I called everyone in front of the statue of the statue of the goddesses.
“From today on, my disciples and I will start to teach how to read and write to every resident of this land“ Linjian
*Noise of crowd*
“But king, wouldn't it be impossible at our age?“ woman
[The number of characters in this world language makes it impossible to learn if it is not taught from children]
“We will not teach you the cultivation world language, but the language of the humankind“ Linjian
“The language of the humankind?“ woman
“Yes, I promise you that by the end of this year everyone of you will be able to read and write“ Linjian
[Time to be a teacher]
......
...
I created a Day care center to take care of the children of working parents, and Mao offered herself to manage it.
(She has the experience of taking care of his little brother)
[And her Caring Touch skill is adequate]
-Year 2 of the Holy Land of Xue-
The literacy percentage reached 100% in adults.
“We really did it“ woman
“I told you so“ Linjian
Qianxun excelled in this, so I gave her a book about basic biology.
......
...
Once again, I called everyone in front of the central statue.
“Today I will speak about the laws of this land“ Linjian
Tang handed out pamphlets with the laws in them.
“First, violence inside the walls will not be tolerated“ Linjian
In the cultivation world, killing someone in the street was only a trouble if it was a member of a powerful family. This place will be different.
“Depending on the gravity of the crime the sentence will be prison or death, so be careful“ Linjian

The dungeons for criminals are already underground.
“Second, every children has the right and obligation to education and ,therefore, every child from 5 to 11 years old will go to the building called Primary School every morning“
I already got some teachers from the literate adults.
“Third, ...“ Linjian
......
...
The Spiritual Repellents were about to expire, so I swapped them for new ones.
[We need an alternative to these, you will not be around forever]
(...That is truth)
-Year 3 of the Holy Land of Xue-
I created a library and now I spend most of my time there.
(Alright, the quota of this book is complete)
[Great, now...]
I create ten copies of every book Maria read in his life, it is a difficult task but it will be useful.
“...“ Qianxun
“...“ Shaolan
Qianxun and Shaolan are always waiting to read every new book I create.
-Year 4 of the Holy Land of Xue-
Little by little, new Professions are reappearing in the Holy Land of Xue. But not all of them are positive.
(Where did they get alcohol?)
Beer, wine and others are now circulating inside the walls.
[To good or bad, There is no civilization in history without alcohol]
(...)
[At least medics are appearing in this land]
Qianxun opened a clinic in the southwest district.
[With her new knowledge, it is only a is just a matter of time before she learns a skill like Heal]
I hope it is soon, right now I am the only one capable of healing serious wounds.
...
Each skill takes five to ten years of repetition to learn and can only be leveled up to two without the use of MP.
Fire Manipulation is too dangerous and the Earth Manipulation could lead to sickness if bad soil is used.
So the plan is to create a society of Water Manipulation and Wind Manipulation.
Daily swimming classes have been designated to every school and every kid is taught how to use a musical instrument.
(Will this really work?)
[Only time will tell]
-Year 5 of the Holy Land of Xue-
Taking the Dantian out of some Bronze rank spiritual creatures transforms them into normal animals. And that is how cows came into our society.
[I still cant believe that there is no milk-related products in this world]
(The cooks of this land are delighted with your recipes, just wait a little more and that cheese that you talk about will be ready)
......
...
After the first year of living in the holy land of Xue I discovered that the Spiritual Repellents increase the range of my skills.
Earth Manipulation and Animal Whisperer become too weak as the distance increases but Life Detection works perfectly. It allows me to count the exact number of people in the kingdom.

[858 people]
(Each district has a capacity of about two thousand, so we are good for now)
-Year 6 of the Holy Land of Xue-
“Grandpa, Grandpa“ Hikari
“What is it, Hikari?“ Linjian
I smile to the daughter of Tang and Yue.
“I learned to play a new song on my flute!“ Hikari
(She really likes music)
[She will be a great Wind Manipulator in the future]
“Really? show me“ Linjian
“Here I go“ Hikari
......
...
The currency in this Holy Land is divided in Bronze coins and Silver bills.
The Bronze coins come in Three denominations: 10, 25 and 50. These are mostly used to buy candies to kids.
And the Silver bills come in five denominations: 1, 5, 10, 50 and 100. These are mostly used by adults to buy expensive stuff.
Both of them are branded with my blood, so they give a blue light reaction when close to a Spiritual Repellent.
-Year 7 of the Holy Land of Xue-
In order to train the low level residents, I created a Dueling Center. It wasn't a place to fight people, but a place to fight Elemental Monsters.
The Elemental Monsters are spherical beings with a core, created by a Water Manipulator. They will attack the limbs of the trained person and he would have to defeat it by destroying the core inside. The core itself is only a common stone, its only function is to tell the water manipulator to stop when it is destroyed.
Right now, only Yue is capable to create them.
[No matter where I look at it, that is a slime]
......
...
The production of Furukawa clothes is in high demand.
[The Handiwork skill make their clothes of a greater quality than yours]
(I am finally free of creating clothes for everyone)
-Year 8 of the Holy Land of Xue-
Even though I am a king, I don't have absolute power over the residents.
The Holy Land of Xue is ruled by three powers.
The head of laws makers, chosen by the people every seven years to create the laws.
The head of judges, chosen by the people every ten years to discuss the laws and apply them case by case.
And the chosen king, the highest representative of the inhabitants of the holy land, responsible for the infrastructure and fair treatment of all. The future plan is for him to be chosen by the people every four years, but for now I will monopolize this role.
If two powers see the third one unfit of the role, they can take that person out.
[This is a very brusque intention of democracy]
(It is what we have)
......
...
Yue and Tang have another baby, Benjamin Lynn. A name they took from a name book in the library.
[They really like the names of my world]
(They want a change as much as I do)
......
...
The new names of the days and months have been decided.
[Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday]
(January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November and December)
[It almost feels like home]
-Year 9 of the Holy Land of Xue-
“Water Manipulation - Water Arrow!“ Woman
There are rumors that screaming a name in front of Water Manipulation makes it stronger.
(Is that truth?)
[It is not stronger, but it helps create a image]
......
...
I dedicated this year to create mountains of scrap iron, Coal, bronze, silver and gold.
(With this the blacksmiths will have enough material for a while)
[I hope that in the future they can go out to look for it by themselves]
-Year 10 of the Holy Land of Xue-
Qianxun learned a skill called Cell Duplication.
[This skill does the same as your Cell Reproduction, but this one can be used in others]
(Good, this way she will be able to cure people if I am away)
Tang reached the Max level in Sword art and now he can create a sword of pure mana.
“Sword art - Mana sword“ Tang
I asked him to show it to me.
A blue light resembling his Bastard sword appears in his empty hand.
[His Brawn increased by twenty-five points]
He also obtained the skill Mana Attuned after reaching the maximum level in one skill.
[This is a downgraded version of your Mana Handling skill]
Yue is not far of reaching that skill level too.
......
...
“Visit our restaurant! A new ice cream flavor is now available!“ Ranran
Ice creams, hamburgers, pizza, noodles, cakes, sodas and more recipes now exist in this world.
(They are tasty)
[If I have to leave these behind to be immortal, I don't want to be one]
-Year 11 of the Holy Land of Xue-
Food, clothes, security and knowledge. This settlement is almost ready to stand by itself.
[It took some time]
(But it was worth it, now is the time to think of our next step)
One settlement alone is not enough to change the world.
......
...
“Master Linjian!“ Tang
This land was in peace, but this was a world of cultivators.
“Various groups of people under flags are approaching from the north, west and south!“ Tang
And it noticed us.
“And... an Orange flag is on the far southwest“ Tang
(!!!)
