Survive on a Deserted Island With the Villainous Young Lady

64 – Antwolf Zone (3)

While the pie was being baked in the kiln, it suddenly started to rain.

“It’s raining again.”

“Yeah. Fortunately, the rain is weak.”

“Yes. I think it will stop soon.”

There was no need to go home just because it was raining.

The two listened to the pouring rain under the eaves of the kiln and waited patiently for the pie to be baked.

Monia rummaged around the bonfire inside the kiln and watched the drizzling rain.

“Looking at the rain reminds me of that day.”

“that day?”

“It’s a storm.”

“ah. Monia is the first to rain like that, right?”

“Um… .”

At Chester’s words, Monia closed her eyes for a moment and fell into thought.

“Mmm.”

“Why? Isn’t this the first time?”

“Well, I think it rained similarly when I first met Jordi.”

“When is that?”

“When I was five years old.”

“ah.”

Monia is 5 years old.

Then it was the days when Chester reigned as the captain of the neighborhood children in the village.

As the son of a hunter, he dominated the children by becoming an unmatched general boasting the power of a hundred per cent with his stamina, strength, and mental power accumulated from an early age while wandering around the mountains.

The town was Chester’s world until a week later a rebel group emerged and started playing war games with each other.

For reference, the rebels were subdued by Chester.

“I was living in a villa when I was five years old, and suddenly I was forced to go see Jordi because he was turning five.”

“yes? I must have hated it. I would have liked to hang out at the villa.”

“Ugh. At that time, I spent more time studying with a tutor than playing, and it was the same at the villa.”

The daughter of a duke and the fiancee of the prince.

Of course, Monia couldn’t devote time to other things since she was a child because she was getting that kind of education.

“Also, I’m like, what can I say, but I was like a doll, right? Whenever my father said anything, I just followed.”

When the duke commands, he obeys.

There can be no doubt or denial in it.

It was literally a life like a puppet controlled by strings.

Although it has its own limbs, it is the ruler connected to the end of the thread that moves them, and it has its own mouth, but what comes out of that mouth is not the voice of the doll itself, but the words spoken by the ruler.

“I met a heavy rain on a mountain road on the way back to the capital after leaving the villa. Even then, it rained terribly.”

“On a mountain road? Then you must have had a hard time.”

“The hardships were made by coachmen and knights. Because I was quiet in the carriage.”

When she said that, Monia’s expression seemed to have softened a bit.

“Now that I think about it, it seems that the number of knights has decreased a little after arriving at the royal capital and getting off the carriage… … . No apology or thanks.”

“I was young, so my memory could be wrong.”

When Chester comforted her like that, Monia quietly shook her head.

“Because I am smart.”

“Pooh!”

At the word smart, Chester involuntarily burst into laughter.

“… … something.”

“Puh, heh, hahahaha! no, ha! ha ha ha! no, no! ha ha ha! nothing! Khehehe!”

“I feel bad! Stop laughing!”

“hehehehe.”

“Aye!”

Monia lunged at Chester and was lightly overpowered.

Overpowered by Chester, Monia, who naturally changed the position of sitting across from each other to sitting close to Chester, asked Chester.

“What about Chester? Do you have any memories of rain?”

“rain? A lot. Because I often went to the forest or the mountains with my father.”

Chester laughed and watched the pouring rain.

At first, it was a drizzling rain, but it became a bit thicker, but on the contrary, the momentum of the pouring rain became weaker than a little while ago.

‘I wonder if it will stop in 10 to 20 minutes.’

“I have many memories of rain, but if it’s the one that leaves the deepest impression on me, that’s it.”

“What is it?”

“I was sheltering from the rain in a shelter built in the mountains with my father. I thought it was dangerous because it rained so much, but a landslide came and hit our hideout.”

“Hick.”

Chester’s words turn Monia’s complexion pale.

“Gwa, are you okay?”

“yes? Are you here because it’s okay?”

Chester patted the worried Monia on the shoulder saying it was okay.

“The hideout we were in was a cave.”

“yes.”

“I’m not used to it, but I walked around the cave with my father and found another exit and got out of there.”

“It’s a cave.”

“Do you know how to escape the cave? Make a torch and read the direction of the wind. If the torch doesn’t stay still and sways in the wind, it means there’s a passage through which the wind comes in.”

Chester told the story of the many strange animals he saw in the cave and the terrifying swarms of bats, and Monia listened to Chester’s story with a smile.

right! Tadak!

The man gathered twigs and tried to light them.

Follow me!

The moment the man pressed the two jewels attached to the tip of the cylindrical tool to make them touch, sharp sparks flew and attacked the tree branch.

Tadak!

‘lighter’.

It is the most expensive item among the tools that the man obtained when he went to the wandering island, and it is a cheap used product that was used and discarded by a noble family.

Thanks to that, the sparks didn’t fire properly, but the embers just flew like this.

Follow me!

However, the embers splattered quite intensely, so even a man who did not properly prepare a kindling can easily light a fire.

“Stuck!”

The man is now in the cave.

While climbing a steep mountain, I saw a cave in the middle and went inside with the intention of taking a break.

The man plucked a branch from a tree growing near the entrance of the cave and set it on fire.

After losing the machete, they were unable to supply food by hunting animals.

That’s why the only thing the man had eaten since that day was the emergency food he had brought.

The food is so dry and dry that it has no taste, and if you eat it as it is, your mouth will dry out and crack and bleed.

Luckily, there was a clear stream flowing next to the cave, so the man used it as drinking water to finish his meal.

“I don’t know when the rain will stop.”

It is still raining outside.

It rained for a while and stopped soon, but if it rained even a little like this, the rocks would become slippery and you couldn’t climb the mountain.

This is because there are no wide roads that can be traveled freely in this mountain, and all are unstable and narrow roads.

It was clear that if the mountain went wet, it would fall.

No matter how much the man was an adventure beginner, he knew that much.

Everyone must have had the experience of falling on a slippery rock and drowning while playing in a valley when they were young.

“I want to eat meat.”

eat emergency food

The emergency food that went into his mouth crumbled and turned into powder, sucking the moisture in his mouth in an instant.

“Keugh!”

The man hurriedly drank the water he had put in the bucket.

After drinking a lot of water, lay the bucket in the stream flowing inside the cave so that the water is filled naturally.

The man looked at what was left of him now, but unfortunately, there was not much left.

I lost most of the equipment I brought with me.

All that is left is a knife, a lighter, 3 days of emergency food, and a spare pair of boots.

That’s all.

When he had just arrived at the floating island, his radiant appearance, thoroughly equipped with a backpack full of food and tools, was a miserable life that could not be imagined.

Of course, even now, it’s better than Chester and Monia, who were abandoned with nothing but a pair of clothes.

“It’s okay, it doesn’t taste good.”

The man thought about what to do after finishing his grueling meal.

Will you go up to that dangerous outside again?

Or will you go into this cave, even though it’s so dark that you can’t see anything in front of you?

“… … .”

The man did not know the danger of the cave.

So, I decided to go inside the cave just because it was easier to walk and less dangerous.

Moments later, the man’s figure disappeared into the darkness of the cave.

“Are they all baked?”

Chester removed the stones blocking the kiln entrance and carefully took out the pie inside.

The pie crust, which was white at first, had turned dark brown during the time it was baked in the kiln.

The bottom was completely burnt, soot was visible here and there.

Well, that doesn’t matter too much.

What matters is the top.

Stuffed candy berries salted.

Then sprinkle honey on top to coat it.

Both of them must have been roasted in the kiln to a golden brown color, and the color was a little darker, and they had a much more beautiful luster.

“Oh oh.”

“Pie! Pie! That’s right!”

“No, I have to taste it.”

Chester let the excited Monia go and carefully set the pie he was holding up on the leaves.

Then he took out his claw knife and accurately halved the pie.

When the pie is cut in half, the heat hidden inside the pie comes out and creates a clear steam.

“Wow. sweet smell.”

Chester and Monia each held a pie in one hand, and carefully put it in their mouths and chewed it.

First of all, the pie crust was very hard.

More like an overbaked cookie than a pie crust.

However, it wasn’t so much that they couldn’t chew it, so the two chewed on the pie crust, put the pie in their mouths, and savored the taste.

The harder the pie crust is chewed, the softer it becomes as it is soaked in the juice from the crushed candy berries.

The salty taste left from salting the candy fruits, the rich sweetness of the honey, and the subtle freshness of the candy fruits create a rich taste that spreads in your mouth.

“Well.”

“Mmm.”

The two of them closed their eyes for a long time and savored the taste of the pie, then swallowed the pie and looked at each other.

“Good. how?”

“it is delicious! If farming succeeds, can we continue to make and eat these things?”

“right.”

“I’ll do my best!”

Monia’s farming motivation doubled.
