They finished their lunch of some kind of sweet wildflower soup, and before I could ask them to accompany me, they jumped and disappeared into the forest. I had no choice but to borrow a knife for demolition and a machete for firewood from their mother, Lulu, and go into the forest alone.

The first thing you need to do is to look at the status column and see if you can find the "Swordplay 2", "Bodywork 2" and "Healing Magic 1". I'll just appraise the knife and machete I borrowed. I'm sorry.

＊＊＊＊＊＊
I'm not sure what to say.
I'm not sure what to make of it. It's made of iron, but it's not very strong, so it's not suitable for work that requires a lot of force.

A simple machete.
A general purpose machete. Suitable for removing branches, but not strong enough for chopping firewood. The weight is light enough for women to use.
＊＊＊＊＊＊

Be careful not to break it. But you seem to be lacking a lot of tools. The next step is "Dismantle 2"... what to dismantle... hobgoblins? What do you get for dismantling a goblin? .... I'll leave this one alone too. Next.
There's no vein to dig with Mining 3... Logging 1 is next: .... It's impossible with this machete. .... Huh?

When you're looking at the skills section of the status menu, it suddenly switches to the skill details screen.

＊＊＊＊＊＊
"Logging 1.
A skill for cutting down trees. Gives correction when cutting trees. You can also use magic power to cut trees without tools, but the cost is low.
＊＊＊＊＊＊

I'll try it once. I'm not sure if it's a good idea or not. If not, I'll think about it again. If not, I'll think again.

You stand in front of a tree about 40cm in diameter and think about activating your skills as far down as possible. You can feel something being consumed by your body.

"............? I'm not getting anything...? Huh? Wait, wait, wait! Wait!

Actually, it was out, and when I touched it, it fell over. I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I'm not the only one who has a problem with this. I want to praise myself for putting it in the item box as soon as I could.

I thought I was going to die. I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it's a good idea. Well, that's okay. Next is "Farming 3"... no place to grow, no seeds or seedlings... ...Kurosmith 2 doesn't have any ore or ingots either, so it's a no-go. I've just made something without tools, so I wonder if I can do something with Stonemason 4. More on that later. I don't know.

＊＊＊＊＊＊
Stonecutter 4.
There is a correction for stone processing. It can be used for various things such as cutting, surface processing, drilling, and manipulating the density of stone. Can be used without tools by consuming magic power.
＊＊＊＊＊＊

You can use it without tools. But I don't have a stone to process... oh, I think there's one in the item box!

You take out a stone from the item box.

"Well, let's just make it into a cube... wow... hooray! It's done!

In the palm of my hand, a stone about half the size of my fist was formed into a dice about two centimeters on each side. The surface was still quite rough. The amount of magic consumed was 19, which was more complicated than chopping wood, but less than the size and skill level.

The next skill is... 《Woodworking 4》. Let's see. .... The next skill is...

＊＊＊＊＊＊
Woodworking 4.
It corrects for the processing of wood. Can be used for drying, cutting, surfacing, drilling, grooving, and many other things. Can be used without tools by consuming magic power.
＊＊＊＊＊＊

I'm not sure what to do with it.

A tree with a diameter of 40 centimeters has a thick trunk and a large branch, and it is 4 meters long, even if you consider it straight to the point where you can get the material. In terms of volume, it's quite massive.

It's bigger than I thought. I don't know how much it'll distort when it dries, so I'd better do it before I drop the branches and stuff, or I'll use it for material as big as possible later. Come on, dry it out!

I can feel more and more magic being consumed from inside my body. First, the leaves wither and fall, and even when all the leaves have fallen off, the magic power is being consumed without mercy. As soon as I thought that I was in trouble, I staggered and fell down to hug the tree lying on the ground.

This is the legendary depletion of magic power. It's so hard. .... It's hard.

The fallen tree was my lover for about five minutes before I could move. ...Not pretty.
