A loom was different from simple tools. A machine that could handle fine silk had many more steps and far more complex parts.

Rosalie tried calling out to the system in her mind.

Before, the system always gave the same cold reply, “System energy is insufficient. The system has entered a dormant state.”

This time, the system froze for a long time. Then, the message changed.

“System energy is insufficient.”

After that, another line appeared. “Energy required: 100. Energy collected: 0.”

Rosalie frowned. What did that mean?

Collect energy? Collect what? There wasn’t even a hint.

She picked up a copper coin. Nothing happened.

Was it because it wasn’t worth enough?

She tried a silver coin. Still nothing.

Rosalie set the silver down with a sigh. So, the energy wasn’t money.

If the system were working, she could have just bought a loom.

Her building proficiency skill was already at level three, and the blueprint for a loom appeared automatically in her mind.

Still, several parts were shown in gray. That meant her level wasn’t high enough to unlock them.

So, the real problem was clear. She had to figure out what this energy was.

In her past life, Rosalie knew nothing about weaving. She couldn’t guess how to make those locked parts.

She asked Leon to go chop wood so they could prepare the materials.

Then she worked on the parts she could make. Even with level-three skill, the work was not easy.

By noon, she and Reid had only finished two usable parts.

A full loom needed dozens of pieces, big and small.

Rosalie put down her bone knife and called out to Reid, who was still fighting stubborn logs.

“Take a break. Let’s eat lunch for now.”

After lunch, the midday sun was strong. Rosalie spread the herbs she had picked yesterday out to dry.

Once that was done, sleep hit her hard. She went back to her room and rested.

When she woke up in the afternoon, she opened the system again, as usual.

This time, she froze. The number under “energy collected” had changed. It was now 1.

Rosalie shot upright in bed, eyes wide with excitement. Declan, lying beside her, jumped in surprise.

He sat up and looked at her, confused.

“What happened?”

Rosalie didn’t answer right away. She replayed the day in her head, thinking hard about what she had touched. Something must have increased that number.

With a clear goal in mind, she jumped out of bed and ran toward the herbs.

She touched every herb drying in the sun. Nothing changed.

Her head filled with questions. That wasn’t right.

She had touched those herbs in the morning too. The only other things she handled were the wood and the loom parts.

Could it be the wood?

She picked up the parts she had made. Still, no reaction.

Now, she was truly confused. If it wasn’t any of those, where did that energy come from?

Then suddenly, an idea struck her.

She rushed to the backyard and grabbed the remaining herbs. She checked them one by one.

The moment her hand touched one specific plant, the system number flashed.

1 turned into 2.
