Survive on a Deserted Island With the Villainous Young Lady - Chapter 284
284 – Homecoming (4)
Since Shima delivered the news of Monia through the speedboat, by the time the ship arrived at the port, the nobles serving Shima had already heard of Monia. Servants, maids, and even a carriage had been sent to serve them.
Thanks to this, the Chester family was able to move to the mansion as nobles without delay as soon as they arrived on the side continent.
“This is a carriage for nobles.”
Senna enjoyed her carriage with curious eyes.
The wagon she knows is an object that is close to a torture device when riding for a long time, shaking wildly along the curves of her road and trying to smash her hips and waist. Strangely, however, the noble’s wagon swayed softly without such a thing, making it much more comfortable to ride.

“And it’s spacious.”
“Yeah, but I get tired of riding it all the time. It is better to move on foot than to move by carriage.”
Monia said that while looking at the scenery outside her carriage. Outside the carriage, heavily armed knights could be seen moving on horseback escorting the carriage.
“I miss that scenery.”
Monia said that and laughed.
“Really?”
“In the eastern part of the kingdom, the trees are low and the grass is low. If you’re riding a horse, you can see all the way to the horizon. There is also a stretch of grassland where only slightly shining grass grows without a single tree. There, I often held tea parties with other noble children. Chester, do you remember?”
“Um.”
Chester’s expression turned bad at the word silk green. In order to have a tea party, I had to move all the way to the east from the duke’s mansion in the kingdom’s capital, and I had to make various preparations for that, so it couldn’t have been a good idea.
Monia smiled slightly bitterly, as if she understood that. At that time, she was large, so Shima, who was with the Chester family, spoke instead of Rex, who was riding in another carriage with Urgo.
“Monia, I’m sorry.”
“Huh? Suddenly?”
“That’s right, Silk Green has been burned.”
“Oops.”
Monia was slightly surprised. Silk Green is the most remote land in the kingdom. That the place was on fire
“The war seems to have spread more widely than I thought? Rather, why did it burn there?”
“Jordi burned it. She sent her subjects to oil themselves in silk green, promising to defeat the duke’s army, which was moving by a great detour around the battlefield. After the people went to the duke’s army, they set themselves on fire. The meadow was engulfed in flames in no time.”
Silkgreen was also close to Japy Kingdom, and Japi Kingdom had been closely watching the war in the kingdom from the beginning and was monitoring it as a scout, so Shima knew quite a bit about the battle situation in Silkgreen.
“Jordi? Really? I remember he wasn’t such a bad kid. It just lacks a little head.”
“No, Monia.”
Chester supported Jordi.
“Since I have been receiving education as a prince, there has been no noise, so I must be smart. Jordi lacks the brain, not the brain.”
“Ah! I see!”
It is said that he is the king of a defeated country, but Shima, who is the king of a country and the king of the kingdom of Biend, which flourished the most in the continent of Side, was insulted. Shima couldn’t bear to say anything.
‘Please don’t use such words in front of other nobles! Life on an uninhabited island has abandoned Monia-sama!’
While thinking about that, Shima glared at Chester, who he thought was the culprit behind Monia’s destruction, but couldn’t say anything more.
Chester was too strong and arrogant to say anything about power.
The person who said such things about King Jordi was not the aristocrat himself, but just an agent.
Of course, Chester was not a mindless man, and he had no intention of being rude to a nobleman. Because he has no reason to do so.
“By the way, where are you going? I know that Shima’s landlord’s noble estate is not this one.”
“Do you have a map of our kingdom… ?”
“I know the geography of neighboring countries. I learned it when I was young.”
“… ….”
How much geographic information of other countries has been collected and thoroughly educated, so that you can notice that the destination is different just by looking at the movement of the wagon?
“Joe, could you do a little spin? You have to be careful.”
“Then you would have explained to me before asking me if I had the map of Japy Kingdom.”
“…… Yes, in fact, our land has already been trampled by the duke’s army and we have fled to the vicinity of the capital.”
“…… ?”
Hearing that, Chester wondered. From Rowan’s words, he must have been helping me sell stable supplies.
“….”
Chester soon realized the situation.
‘You bastard, you cheated!’
Seeing Chester’s eyes, Shima said in bewilderment.
“It’s not a scam! The owner, who settled in the capital after losing his land, rather uses the geographical advantage of the capital to have greater influence than before!”
“Ah, yes, yes.”
“That might sound a bit suspicious, but it’s real! You will know when you go! If you go!”
“Yes, I also have land, mansions, connections, and power. How do you know? I know when I go, when I go.”
“…… ! Anything more than that will be regarded as an insult to the master!”
“In the first place, you know that it would be disadvantageous for you to tell it, so you didn’t hide this or that.”
“Kuk!”
Chester laughed at Shima, who was speechless and huffed and sat down. He seems to be of decent character for an aristocratic agent.
‘I knew it when I became close with a mercenary like Rowan.’
An agent of a noble is, of course, a noble. Those who have an ambiguous position within the family… For example, an illegitimate son or three sons, who are less profitable to use politically, but instead, those in an ambiguous position that can be trusted thanks to bloodlines become agents.
Shima is like that too. Even if you were born as a noble and educated as an agent, if you are trained as an agent, you will be educated on pride or loyalty towards your family, close to brainwashing.
However, there are tolerances that go beyond insults to some extent, and there are also vessels that can be friends with a person in the lowly position of a mercenary.
‘It’s not bad.’
Because he knew that, Chester treated him rudely, believing that he had become close with him while living on the ship. If Shima’s personality had not been like this, the knights might have captured and executed Chester as soon as he went up to the capital.
And knowing that, Monia was watching between Chester and Shima with a slightly nervous face. She had to loosen her heart and negotiate if she saw Shima intending to do anything wrong.
With the feeling that Monia should be moderate, she secretly pointed her elbow at Chester’s side and gave her attention, and Chester made a small gesture saying that he would understand.
But she had to check.
‘If Shima’s personality is like this, then the owner must be not bad, and she won’t do anything harsh to Monia.’
Monia is beautiful. Judging from Shima’s words, it seems that his owner has been obsessed with Monia since before.
Then, of course, she might have thought of doing something strange to Monia. To prepare for that, I had to learn at least a little bit of information about the host aristocrat’s humanity through Shima.
“By the way Shima, what did you say your master’s name was?”
“Oh, did I only tell Rowan?”
“You always say that you are the master, that’s right.”
“Okay. Sorry. I was mistaken that you told everyone because you were close to Rowan.”
“It’s okay. Sailing life is tiring, so my thoughts are not going well. So you can be mistaken.”
“Hmm. Then…… It’s time to eat soon, shall we talk over lunch?”
When Shima opened the window and signaled outside, the carriages stopped and the escorting knights quickly began preparing meals.
In the procession of wagons that came to serve Monia, there was even a cook prepared for Monia, who was known as a gourmet.
“Aww, it’s hot!”
“What kind of motherf*cker is the person who usually works with fire!”
“The fire in the kitchen is not like this… !”
“Ahhh…… !”
When the knights saw that the cook was frightened by the large bonfire, they eagerly trained the cook to cook.
Monia moved comfortably and took off her armor to prepare for the meal. The chef was surrounded by large knights who showed off all their muscles. Cook, do it quickly, do it well, what are you doing? What is it, it looks delicious, etc. I thought.
‘If that’s the case, I don’t think even delicious dishes will come out delicious.’
As Shima eagerly explained her master and her family in one ear and out the other, Monia only watched her cook’s hand.
‘It’s been a while since I’ve eaten hometown cuisine.’
Although it is the Japy Kingdom, looking at the chef’s hand, he was cooking traditional dishes from the Kingdom of Biend. The workmanship is not bad, so you can expect it.
‘Ehehehe.’
Monia laughed inwardly.
