So recently I've been browsing the internet and I've found this... two websites called Royalroadl and NoveleUpdates. There's a concept in noveleupdates that i quite like and that is kingdom building and modern knowledge in a fantasy setting, The best example i can give you is release that witch.

There's also another fic done by an author in royalroadl called tonyorobsky and he's done a story that i quite like called "Building my Faction in another World" which is what this story is kind of based and inspired from, but it has been abandoned as he's gone quiet...like me as of recently. He's also done a Familair of Zero fic on that website called "Altered Tales"...which is sort of like a gary stu setting where the SI Saito decided to shit all over canon and assert himself as emperor in all of Halkeginina or something like that

Another reason i did this fic is that i also took inspiration from another novel in NovelUpdates called Modern Weapons Cheat in Another World, where it does have mixed reviews but it does have some pretty dodgy narration and world building and translation at times, but it's the concept that really interested me.

Now Fair warnings to you all, this is a Gamer fic that no many have seen anything like it before, if any of you have then i would like to know where. I can't promise that i will do great at this as i'm going in without a beta reasder as i can't be bothered to bother my main one with this, but i will do my best.

I like to mix it with a bit of dark and gritty content like i do with most if not all of my fics, so it will be mostly AU instead of focusing on the usual canon aspect as what many people do with all Familiar of Zero fanfics. Expect, gore, strong language, possibly some sexual content later on (as it is a harem anime/novel so why the hell not?), dark and upsetting scenes for some (I know this kind of thing is not portrayed this way, but i'm making it AU for that purpose in order for it to be), Bashing on nobility (also to be expected, how can you not?) Strong but not OP protagonist. also, expect some game crossovers.

I probably might have forgotten to mention some things, but let's just get on with the story and let you decided.

Building New Foundations

Ok… so recently I just discovered I have a… somewhat overpowered ability. You know… like a gamer's ability, a freaking reality bending gamer's ability. Awesome, right?... if that's what you are thinking, but mine had a… twist to it.

Despite being ripped away from my somewhat boring and monotonous life, not to mention torturous, shitty and all… considering what happened to me recently and those other times I had to suffer because of those bastard bullies. I can't help but feel like I don't really mind this setting all that much.

I couldn't tell if was fortunate or not, this chance is like 1 in a billion of it ever happening in your or anyone else's life, yet it happened with mine. The downside of it however, my ability appears to broken… or fucked up full of bugs and glitches with the system codes and commands to be more accurate. It also did not help with my apparent wounds and my appearance after I suffered from an incident with my high school bullies that involved fire and a lot of petrol later on through my letterbox as revenge for sending some of their friends and family to prison just because I was a witness to a brutal manslaughter/ attempted murder.

I was asleep upstairs in my own house and for some reason the fire alarm was disabled, either the batteries got taken out or it was broken. The last thing I woke up to was a room full of smoke and everything was burning around me, and then the ceiling collapsed on top of me…and then I woke up in a another place.

I woke up in the early morning of 8:30AM with the sunlight hitting my eyes. I winced at the sudden brightness as the light suddenly hit my eyes as if someone had opened the windows, as I turned over and opened my blurry eyes to see a bright blue transparent hologram window just floating in front of my view.

We apologise for the inconvenience, but we ask of you to push on until we find a solution or you find something to cure yourself of your suffering.

I blinked at the hovering message, once or several times to make sure I wasn't hallucinating or the exhaustion was making me see things. "This is a joke, right?" As weird as this was, what with seeing a floating text box in front of my face. I couldn't help but wonder why I was in a comfortable bed in a… wait? This isn't my room.

I sat up from my bed and looked around to see a rather blank looking Spartan room with only the bare essentials for a rather Palin bedroom. White painted walls, white Egyptian cotton bed quilts, pillows and sheets. A modern looking plain wardrobe and a few set of drawers and an empty desk. There were no signs of entertainment like any gadgets or technology such as a computer, TV, games consoles or anything that I personally hold a lot of attachments to.

I got up from my comfortable bed that I admit it is actually more comfortable than my bed at home that is not this one. I stood up to see that I was still wearing a white pyjama shirt along with grey pyjama bottoms, the clothes that I wore to bed with.

Pondering in confusion as I remembered that this was not the room I fell asleep in. I looked around the room some more and decided to open up the wardrobe to see what's inside. When I did, there was the exact set of clothes that I wore from what I remember was only just yesterday, along with a separate copy of the same clothes and boots.

For some reason another text window popped up to notify what I was wearing right now.

Torso:

[Pyjama Shirt– (D class item) – DUR (10/10]

[Bandages – (C class item) – DUR (12/12]

Headwear:

Hands/arms:

[None]

Feeling quite spooked, I decided that I should head outside the room and possibly outside this house that I suddenly found myself in. 'Ok…this isn't weird.' I said trying to convince myself as I then stared in the wardrobe's mirror at the shock at the fact that my face, arms, hands and my upper torso was covered in bandages. It sort of reminded me of Joshua Graham from that one DLC in Fallout New Vegas. For a brief moment, I found that pretty cool, but immediately that feeling was squashed and replaced with cold silent anguish as I recalled back to what happened as to why I had those bandages and the fact that at times I sometimes feel as if I'm still on fire, but then the pain fades for a brief time before returning.

Leaving the negative thought aside, I was still puzzled as to who this house belonged to, I decided to quickly change into my clothes.

Torso:

[White long sleeved button up shirt with sleeves rolled up] – (D class item) – DUR 10/10

Legwear:

[Dark blue Denim Jeans] - (D class item) – DUR (10/11]

After I finished getting changed into my clothes, muttering to myself that I really did look and feel like Joshua Graham from Fallout NV, all I needed now was the SWAT ballistic vest armour, an M1911 colt .45 ACP pistol and a bible and the look would be complete. After all, that I immediately moved towards the door which to my surprise that I find that the door was a sliding door. Shrugging to myself, I reached towards the handle and slid it open as I peered out of the bedroom door and looked down the hallway. To my surprise…the hallway looked completely trashed, not to mention old and archaic. Compared to my bedroom, the hallway had a horrible draft coming through and the old wooden walls along with the timber frame were on the verge of falling apart.

As I stepped out of the room, I noticed that there was some noise coming from one of the rooms that was open. I tried being as quiet as I could, despite the fact that I was never that good with sneaking around.

You have learnt a new skill!

Be one with the shadows

Sneak – level 1 (5/100EXP)

Passively Increases your stealth by 10%

Not sure if this thing is being sarcastic or I've really achieved something great?

I stepped closer into what believed was thee kitchen, an old medieval/ Renaissance kitchen. Every part of the kitchen was all either rotten, falling apart or rusted overtime. I looked over the kitchen some more and decided that I probably just heard the draft of the wind coming through the open cracks of the house.

Feeling rather disturbed by this environment, I then started to move closer to the front door. "Right~…okay, I think I should get going now." I said in a rush as I did not wish to stay any longer and rushed out the front door.

As soon as I took one step out of the door, I came to a massive dilemma that I just discovered and a shocking fact I just found myself…I was not in the UK anymore.

The shocking truth was that I found myself in some sort of old poor medieval village with old English single story cruck houses. However, it looked as if it had been abandoned for years, so the buildings were a bit run down. The village itself looked as if it could house at least 100 people or more and there was a nearby forest as well as a few mountains directly to the south, but to the north he could see nothing but a clear blue sky and clouds that were really close to the ground on the horizon, now that he thought about it, the air was quite thinner and the air was colder as he felt the cold sting biting through his bandages. He then realised that he was the only one in this village, all alone.

Well, rundown and abandoned was a bit of an understatement. The village looked as if there had been signs of conflict, arrows embedded into the walls of every home as well as scratches and slash marks and signs of dried blood in the woodwork as well as the walls being smashed through and the roofs being caved in by rocks and something else as well as what appeared to be burn marks that was apparent that there had been a slaughter here once as there were a few skeletal corpses that had been left around the place. It seemed that nobody has ever returned to this village if anyone did survive the attack, and it looks like no one had even bothered to reclaim this village. Was it considered worthless? Or was it so isolated that it's been left ignored or forgotten for all this time? Who knows?

The village itself didn't seem very special… it may have just looked ordinary for all I know. There were just houses everywhere as well as the few farms that had been long since abandoned that all the crops there have all died and dried up and the cattle had all either escaped or were all slaughtered during the attack. There was only one house that looked important and it was the biggest house that was located on a hill on the outskirts of the outskirts of the village close to the coastline with the hill shielding it from the wind and overlooking the entire village with a sizeable garden as well it being two stories high and pretty spacious. The strangest thing about it was that only the master bedroom was well maintained and shielded from the cold while the resto f the house looked as if it could give way at any moment.

But there was something very wrong about all this. I was not where I was supposed to be, I was not at home, and instead I was in a strange place I did not recognise.

I heard and felt a presence approaching me from behind.

"Ah, Master Crowshaw. I see you're awake…How're you feeling?" The voice spoke, as if it was happy to see me.

"Physically?…I feel fine…mentally?…confused, anxious, and almost angry…Where am I? This isn't home, or even close to it, isn't it?" I gulped nervously, not evening acknowledging the fact that there was somebody behind me and was to referring me as Master.

The voice then confirmed my suspicions. "No…You're not. I suppose you've received the message from her?"

"Who?" I narrowed my left eye in a questioning glance as I turned around to face the speaker and I had the surprise of my life as I saw who or what was speaking to me.

"Gaia, the Goddess of the earth and my mistress. She's the one who created the power you now hold." the voice explained…coming out from this floating orb of blue light.

I stared incredulously at the strange anomaly, but I tried to keep my cool and keep the conversation going without freaking out, even though I was pretty calm about all this for some odd reason. "The Gamer's power?" he said in matter of fact. He has most definitely have heard of it, but it was just a fictional power…right?

The anomaly flickered and it bobbed up and down, as if to confirm my suspcions.

"I'm not entirely sure what's going on here…So I assume she's also responsible for sending me here?" I said sceptically

"Please don't get the wrong idea of her, but if she hadn't done what she did then you would've died in your bed as your house was being consumed in flames." The anomaly informed him.

"So that confirms how I got these, far as I know I actually did die and she just grabbed me just at the moment of death." I said while raising my arms to show off the bandages. "What happened really?"

"It seemed there was one person who wanted vengeance against you for sending what he believes is his innocent brother to jail for testifying against him. He was the younger brother of the leader of the same gang of school bullies that used to torment you from middle school all the way to your last year of high school. You caught them in the middle of a relationship row gone wrong that sent the girlfriend of the leader to hospital in critical condition after the leader stabbed her in a fit unhinged madness and rage.

You caught him and his gang that were witnesses in the middle of the act and you immediately called the police that arrested him and the rest of them soon after the leader was caught trying to flee the country. Not soon after he was sent to life in prison after you provided an accurate witness statement according to the CCTV footage.

After he was sent to prison for his crimes along with the rest of them, his brother on the other hand in an act of denial and madness, he refused to believe that his brother was to blame. Instead, he blamed you for sending his brother to prison as he gathered up his brother's friends and several people who were friends with them and they all went to find you house. There, they poured petrol through your letterbox and set it alight."

The strange anomaly saw that the expression on my face through the bandages morphed into a visage of fury, my eyes burning with malice. "Did they really want me dead? To suffer like this?" my hands clenched together so tightly that they were shaking and to the point that my scars were screaming from the piercing pain, almost to the point that blood was almost being drawn and staining the white bandages red.

"The brother did, yes. The others thought that there was nobody in as one person provided information that he knows where you work most of the time and he thought you were out. They never had the courage to kill an innocent." It explained.

"But they had the courage to destroy and torment innocent lives even I was off on that day as I left my car at my parents' house. That makes them guilty and I won't accept anything less, so they must be punished for their crimes." He said whilst his hand moved to the bridge of his nose, shaking in restrained rage as his breath felt like hot blades grinding against his throat.

"I swear…If I ever see him or any of them again…I will pay them back the same way they tried to do to me…If there is a way back that is." he said finally calming down as logic and facts settled in. "Where are we?" I finally asked the million Pound/Dollar question.

"Albion, a kingdom located in a place called Halkeginia."

I immediately frowned at that that as my brain was nagging at me as to they it sounded so familiar…bollocks. "Can't be...You're telling me we're in another world?"

"You caught on so quickly? I'm impressed." The Anomaly said as if to praise me for the obvious answer.

I couldn't help but sigh, no wanting to argue as I couldn't care anymore. "It's nothing to be so surprised about actually, it's just that I recognised the locations that belong to a certain fictional show/novel…I would include manga, but to be honest… there was not much to go on that. although i am still coming to terms about the whole another world thing." I shrugged. "And there is still the fact as to just who are you or what are you really?"

"If you really want an accurate answer…Then I guess you could call an NPC…or a personal avatar/ Artificial intelligence construct summoned to serve my master/Mistress's needs. Whether they be advice for military, medical, construction, manufacturing, protecting, or personal purposes… I can do anything depending on the type of helpful information that you require of me, just like in an RTS game in the tutorial level." The NPC avatar informed him.

I blinked and if I could, then I would sweat drop as I gathered all the information that was provided for me. "So does that mean…that I have some kind of RTS-Management construction ability? Like building a Command Centre and other constructions, gathering resources and recruiting different units or personnel... That's what it is, isn't it?" I said in total disbelief.

The anomaly flickered brightly and made positive *Dun!* noise.

"So if I were to guess…this building would be my command centre?…pretty shoddy for a command centre though." I admitted.

"The house was intended for that purpose, yes. Though it was a work in progress not long ago, but due to certain bugs and viruses going on with the system, we had to leave the house design behind and focus on tackling this troublsome problem. I'm afraid you'll have to finish it yourself."

"Why?" I asked the avatar seriously, wanting to know of it's or Gaia's intentions. "Why do all this for me? what makes me so special?"

"Because you've suffered a lot, the system was unable to fully heal all of your burns and you are feeling the side effects of the burns and all of the smoke you have inhaled. You are very weak." The Avatar said, very worried about my condition.

I felt kind of put off by it's sincerity, although i wasn't complaining that i got healed, well... mostly, it could've been a lot worse. "Honestly, I feel –" I was cut off when my eyes widened and I suddenly collapsed onto one knee as my chest was heaving, lost my breath and was convulsing into a coughing fit. The Avatar hovered over to me and it casted what looked like a circle on the field of grass around me and my breathing levelled out and my coughing ceased.

"You need to rest… you've lost a lot of strength." The Avatar insisted greatly after spotting spots of blood on the bandages where the mouth was.

"No…I…want to stay out here, just…let me sit on the steps." The Avatar reluctantly followed my request and I moved me to sit down on the steps by the front door to the entrance of the house/command centre. "I just… need some time to think… about all of this, leave me to my thoughtsall of light bobbed up and down in understanding. "If you need me? Call for me… I'll be close by. Can I get you anything, master?" it offered me.

"Water would be nice… my throat feels like hot charcoal right now." I murmured in a tired voice, ignoring the fact that it just called me master right now. The stress was easily getting to me.

After I relaxed a bit and calmed down I asked that avatar for some questions as to what was currently going on and where exactly on Albion were we located? I quickly came to terms that I was not on my world, no use dwelling on it. I've already understood and come to terms that my old life is now over. I have no intentions being depressed about it as my past life ended up into some sort of abduction into another world or I dead horrifically or some shit and then reincarnated into a harsh and brutal fantasy setting, at least I think it was like that in a way. Since I didn't do anything noteworthy, I have little to no reasons to remain attached to my old life. I was constantly harassed and beaten by bullies and my parents were cold hearted people, always caring more for their meaningless jobs more than their child. I still have the same body, despite the fact that it was burned in several places quite badly that I've pretty much become… I don't know what to feel right now.

The Avatar, whose name is unknown to me so I just call him that, answered my questions honestly that Albion is currently going through their civil war phase, with the royalist side facing heavy losses and edging nearer to their defeat. The Reconquista were gaining fast and heavy support all throughout Albion as well as a few small pockets of supporting factions secretly declaring their support in the main continent in all of the Brimiric kingdoms, even Germania despite how small that support was.

Albion was like an alternative form of Great Britain, excluding Ireland and without the whole floating island business happening with it. Roughly, it should be the same size, and distance as Britain in real life, or as I say in my original world and past life. Where we were located was in the far north of Albion, right on the edge of land available.

My little NPC/AI helper assured me that it was reasonably safe up here from all the action that was mainly happening down south in the central parts and the southern lands nearer the major cities, towns, ports and coastlines. Up north however, it was generally untouched despite the fact that the north was populated with savage hill tribes such as wild highland men, orcs, goblins and other creatures and tribes that dominate the north. There were only so few settlements that are actually owned by Albions nobility that were located in the north, but the large majority of Albion's nobles decided that the north was not worth the investment in it as they declared it as a poor region and the northern nobility were mostly made up of lesser nobles. The Avatar however then told me something interesting was that the nobility never really bothered to search properly through all the landscapes as it was actually pretty rich with minerals and natural resources, and the threat of the savage tribes were what really put them off from exploring, they just didn't want to go through the trouble. Not to mention that Albion was a floating pile of earth about 5000-10,000 feet above the ground or something like that, but I was reassured that Albion was was actually a lot larger than how it was portrayed, so i should'nt worry about digging too deep.

Besides, if i were dig too deep and find Wind-stone down there, i would know...but i was situated near the coast line direcly to the north of me, so i made a reminder to never dig northwards.

The two warring factions mainly focused on the south and central parts where all their major cities, towns and ports were located where they would focus all their navy strength into patrolling the air space in the direction of Germania, Tristian and Gallia. And none of them ever dared to challenge their naval might and air superiority. Therefore, any coastal defences up in the northern parts was considered pointless as Albion ruled the skies above the rest of the kingdoms and the one empire in Halkeginia.

As I listened, I couldn't help but ask one thing "So, why exactly was I…sent here? Is this some sort of request?"

"Perhaps." The floating Ai said cryptically. "The only thing I know of your purpose is that your fate is for you to decide what is right? What will you do now that you've been granted this power, knowing that the whole country is being plunged into chaos by Reconqusita and their rebellion mainly consisting of Albion's nobility... and the country will fall even further, as will the rest of Halkeginia soon if they're not stopped from their foolish campaign that is doomed to fail."

I didn't answer, but I was definitely thinking it through deeply. "How bad is it really? The situation out there with Albion's…no, all kingdoms in Halkeginia with thier nobility?" I said curiously.

"The Aristocracy as you know are all mages with some of them, although rare, being commoners, but that happens only in Germania if they happen to obtain enough wealth, credit and influence. Halkeginia's Nobility will never allow for a commoner to obtain the social status of an aristocrat, for it is a sacred right for them as you are only permitted if you have magic.

It was made that way ever since the foundation of the four kingdoms that were built in their s so called founder Brimir's name. The Nobility is a failed practice that has been proven many times in history that it's Magocracy is a corrupted, abusive, arrogant, ignorant and intolerant ideology that has made a large majority of them spoilt, blind, and selfish and also a cowardly sort people.

Often they would bully the common man who have no magic and are considered lesser in social status just because they believe they have the right to step on them, all because of the laws and decrees of their beliefs and their faith in their holy founder that it is what gives them the special right. In the past, it first started off as an honourable position, to protect the innocent and to lead the common man out from the darkness, but a few millennia later and the nobility have fallen far from their grace. Every noble and royalty is a mage, with it it brings it's own problems to the world. Albion is going through a revolt lead by opportunistic, blindly ambitious and greedy nobles, Gallia's mad king is secretly plotting against everyone, Romalia's church of the Founder Brimir is more rotten and corrupted than what meets the eye, Germania is an empire led by brutes and bullies, Tristain is slowly becoming a nest of traitors and the Elves in the Sahara have been making a lot of moves as of late." It explained with a serious and grim tone in its voice that made me frown and purse my lips together in slight apprehension.

"What are the chances of anyone from the south... coming here?" I asked it.

"Not very high as of the moment, but I would be very cautious. The nobility is not the only thing out there to be wary of." It said in caution,

"Mm" I nodded as I looked over the village. As I thought to myself…I knew what to do.

I begin to think about my power…what it can do. "It's just like a game isn't it? so it should be simple, right?" I mused to myself.

"Stats!" I called out and a window suddenly appeared showing multiple text and numbers.

Materialisation: (Active) Grants the user to summon weapons, ammunition, supplies, vehicles and various constructions into existence. The amount of weapons, supplies and ammunition you can summon is limitless. Resources to create buildings will cost either real currency of any place or natural resources that are required to build.

Caution! You cannot summon when you are currently engaged in combat. You can only summon when you are not engaged with an enemy.

"I suppose that's fair, in a sense." he said, trying to follow it as best as he could, even though he frowned at the error, cursing at the fact that it was inhibiting with his current health and healing regeneration process. he was also quite surprised at the title, he doesn't remember acquiring that title and he was not not here in this world that long. Although he did complete the game, Metal Gear Solid 5 a while ago, and he did max out his mother base as well as the FOBs. perhaps it was an achievement and the Game system rewarded me for it, or it was a bug.

Stronghold/Base Management (Passive and Active) – Your kingdom is your personal haven for you to mould. You have the ability to manage and build up your kingdom from afar by issuing special orders to either your specially selected subordinates or your summoned personnel.

Summon Personnel - This summoning ability grants the ability to the user to summon creatures or in your case, Personnel. Personnel are loyal soldiers and subordinates that only answer to you. Your personnel are your very own privately owned army/servants that will never betray you. They are trained to do any roll from Combat, Engineering, Scientist, Stonemason, Blacksmith, Cook, Carpenter and all sorts. You can even summon loyal mages but they will not hold any noble statuses. And lastly, you can summon vehicles (Cavalry and beast riders, included) artillery ordnance and even ships.

The amount of personnel and Arms you can summon is fixed at a certain level.

The amount follows:

Infantry Personnel – 250 (1 Company): You can assign any different roles to any of the summoned personnel judging by their current rankings or specialised rankings when training for a specific role in different combat/specialised logistical and other roles in your military force or base.

Ordnance – 30

Vehicles – 30

Aircraft – 10

Warships – 2

When these arms and vehicles are summoned, the number of people needed to operate it will also be summoned and will not be included as an additional cost to infantry personnel. Drivers/pilots of said vehicles can join the infantry personnel if their chosen vehicle is either out of action or destroyed.

Logistical personnel (Combat Engineer, Communication soldier, Intelligence soldier, Officer, Supply soldier, Medic, Research and development scientists etc.) is not included in the Infantry personnel summoning cap and are summoned separately. The amount of logistic personnel that can be summoned is the amount needed to maintain a division or military base.

There is no limitation on summoning small arms and heavy arms that can be operated by 2 or 3 soldiers or more.

"…Oh my..." I gaped at the spectacle of the sheer potential and ridiculousness of this ability that I have now.

*Ping!*

[Structure of infantrymen]

When summoning a soldier; the age, sex, appearance and race can be chosen personally. If you do not wish to select anything or bother going through this tedious process, all those variables will be chosen at random for you. When a soldier is killed, they will not return until a month has passed if you choose to keep them saved in memory.

Summons can be made by using either your mind or your voice. The menu screen is also optional if you wish to browse.

Caution! Summons can only be made if the user has not entered battle. You can summon solders if the user has somehow managed to escape from battle and enemies have stopped their pursuit or unable to locate you at all. Summoned soldiers and weapons are possible to erase. And remember, whilst battling, weapons and soldiers cannot be summoned. So choose your time wisely when summoning.

As much as I should be freaking out right now, but knowing that I had a passive that could nullify any negative psychological defects on me, there really is no point. A power to spawn in weapons, personnel, technology both past, present and possibly the future was right now in my hands. To be honest with myself, I was far too giddy to worry about the small and negative stuff, no matter how much it would eat at me normally after I was forcefully separated from my normal boring life filled with the usual BS. I just wanted to test out my new powers and I was going to test it out right now.

But unfortunately, the system had other ideas as it decided to damper my expectations.

*Ping!*

Note: Due to the primitive nature of this world's lack of understanding with science and technology, you can only summon arms, technology and other things at a restricted time period only. You can only summon/create tech from the (Terran/Earth time period) 1600s /17th century, specifically tech during and before 1650 until you level up certain skills, tech tree acquire specific upgrades, buildings, knowledge in different subjects and your summoned specialised personnel. Alternatively, you can purchase research blueprints to acquire them early or unlock them through exploration by finding collectable blueprints scattered across Halkeginia.

Right now you are at Tier 1.

"What!? Oh, come the fuck on!" I gaped at the unfairness of being placed in a fantasy world with the highest probability of there being mages that can shoot destructive fireballs at you, and I was given shitty single shot, muzzle loaded firearms and pointy metal objects that would do jack shit against a giant rock golem

Sighing heavily to myself I resigned to my fate and just went with it "Ok, so what can I summon from the mid-17th century?" I said as a new window popped up and there was a menu that was sort of like a catalogue of units, structures and weapons that I could currently summon. It turns out that…well… there was not a whole lot of choices available that I could summon for weaponry that were even remotely interesting to me, or even looked at all useful right now. From what I then figured out was that summoning personnel, structures, and weapons all cost some sort of energy and natural resources that were required, which was my logical guess. If so, then I can't overly rely on my own summoning power to make things personally if I want to exhaust myself constantly and I needed resources to create my base and to maintain said base.

So therefore, I looked around the village from where I sat on the highest hill where my command centre stood, from what it looked like, this building was like the village's elder's house or the mayor's house.

Surrounding the house were plenty of buildings that were falling apart, so it gave me a thought.

"So what else can I do with these… RTS powers?" I asked them

The NPC answered dutifully. "It is faster if you access the construction/training menu mentally, alternatively you can use stronghold Management ability where you can use your surroundings and closely observe and/or control the work of your subordinates and personal summons directly on the interactive world map. The user can also select or construct buildings and issue specific orders for the user's subordinates and summons to build, attack, occupy or demolish said building. The user can also upgrade certain buildings via specialised summons with the Example being, and Engineer/Construction Worker and convert them into specialised buildings like a blacksmith, armoury, tannery, and many more."

When I heard the explanation I decided to test it out, and almost instantly an interactive coffee table sized map of the local area suddenly appeared right in front me.

Use the magnifying glass to zoom in or out, highlighted in the top left corner. Alternatively you can double tap to zoom in on a specific point on the map

"Ohhh~…it's just like Google Maps. " I said, chuckling at the irony and decided to test it out as i zoomed in on the village I was currently in and was showed what it looked like in a bird's eye view until I then saw another notification.

'Well, that's all about to change soon.' were my exact thoughts as I looked towards the buildings and I inspected each of them as I looked at each house. I thought logically that I could dismantle the houses and acquire the wood directly into my resource inventory. So by using the system's weapon summoning, I summoned a sledgehammer.

"Master Crowshaw? What are you doing with the hammer?" The Avatar questioned me, curiosu as to what I was doing with a sledgehammer.

"If I want a base…I'm going to need lots of resources. Those houses are not being used right now and there is a sizable forest not far from here. Since the houses are mostly made of wood, it isn't really much of a problem if it can still be recycled. There is something else to help me with my work as the game assists my basic abilities and can be vastly improved in a short amount of time... I'm really thankful for that. The sheer amount of work I would have to do would have seriously dampened my motivation badly if I wasn't stronger before than I am now despite my endurance. With the game system and with the increased endurance, I can work for a longer period of time." I said determined before I set off,

"You shouldn't overexert yourself, your body has not healed yet and you are still very weak." The Avatar insisted. I frowned at the blunt statement but I knew It was right, my arms did kind of struggle from the weight…this is going to take a while.

"Might I make a suggestion?" It helpfully chimed in. "You can select the buildings you want to dismantle either by doing it up close to the building or by your personal map and it should do it by itself by selecting the dismantle command. Alternatively, you can just summon some workers to dismantle the buildings for you, but that s only if you have the command centre built, or in this case, finished, and you can only use the dismantle skill if it is within your territory."

I blinked at that as I would've slapped myself for forgetting that. "Of course…this is RTS logic, but I kind of wanted to raise my own stats and possibly relieve some…stress. Hope I don't end up killing myself over this" I sighed to myself as I felt as if I had no choice but to put some effort into this and start breaking stuff… I so needed that command centre up and running.

Well?

I'm not sure what to think of it so i'm in need of feedback, ideas and constructive criticism. This is something new that i wanted to invest in and I've been trying to find the right approach to this concept that i'm experimenting with. Gamer fics i find are quite tedious and sometimes overly complicated material to work off.

Also, you are welcome to suggest ideas on the reviews or PM for base building. starting from Tier I which will be the very basic structures to Tier II which will be the starting point to civilisation. if anyone's played Sid Meirs CIV V/VI, Age of Empires, or...maybe hearts of Iron IV will understand where i'm going with this.

I would really like any ideas from base structures that gain, food and natural resources, military structures, industrial, administration, research and many more.

looking forward to hear from you all.

Oh, and no Toxicity in the comments, only constructive criticism and a little sarcasm will be allowed.
