Survive on a Deserted Island With the Villainous Young Lady - Chapter 289



289 – The Quadruped Carriage (1)

“This sounds good.”

After defeating all the deserters, the Chester family paused to look around the deserters’ horses to replenish the dead wagon’s horses.

Because the circumstances were different from those who could not live on grass alone, the horses were in good shape compared to the poor physical condition of the deserters.

Of course, it was not properly maintained, so the messy hair or hooves had to be fixed.

“Why did you choose that?”

“It is the largest and strongest.”

Urgo looked at the horse he had chosen and said.

“No, he is blind in one eye, right? In addition, he is bigger than other horses, so it is difficult to keep pace. After all, I like this guy!”

As Senna retorted Urgo’s words, she stroked the words she had chosen.

Senna chose a horse whose physical condition was the most similar to those of the wagon. Their wagon is a quadruped wagon pulled by four horses. If the stride is wrong, the speed of the carriage decreases and the wagon shakes more, which causes discomfort, so it was important to match the stride of each horse.

“That much can be compensated by training.”

“You don’t need to train with him!”

“But considering the battlefield we will run from now on, don’t we need to use tougher horses? In case of emergency, you should abandon the carriage and move on horseback.”

“So you want to change all the other three? Isn’t that more unrealistic?”

“What? Words are a valuable resource, but at the same time, they are also an overflowing resource. If I, Chester, or Rowan move, I can get as many horses as I can if I try.”

“But Urgo, look at the horse you chose. A horse like that must be a precious horse that is strictly managed! What I got here was luck, and the chances of getting it in the future are low!”

Thinking about the future, Urgo wants to change things to better words step by step.

Thinking realistically, I’m not sure that I can get better horses later, so Sena wants to make the best efficiency under the current conditions.

Chester, Monia, and Rowan, who do not know how to see horses, listen to Urgo, who is from a steppe tribe who is familiar with horses, and Sena, who loves horses and has the best eyes for horses, in one ear and listens to the fight with the other, while the sun is slowly setting. In time, preparations for camping began.

“There are enemies nearby that can be caught.”

At Chester’s words, Rowan nodded his head.

“The war makes loud noises every day, so the animals hide. You probably won’t see any signs of animals other than starving ones coming out to devour the corpses.”

This is one of the reasons why it is difficult to procure supplies on the battlefield. When animals really decide to hide, it is not easy to find them with human skills and senses.

“It would be nice to be able to consistently obtain supplies.”

“If that doesn’t work, I can rob a suitable village.”

When Rorwan grinned and said with a spiteful expression, Monia, who received Rorwan’s gaze, shook her head.

“I don’t mind doing it if it’s absolutely necessary, but if that’s not the case, let’s not create a pointless dispute. You don’t have to slow down, do you?”

“Hmm. It is better not to.”

Rowan laughed as if he was really having fun at Monia’s appearance saying that it didn’t matter if it was necessary.

“You guys are really unique.”

“What?”

“Should I call it a way of thinking or an attitude in life, anyway, I am very different from other people. What is that Is there no conscience in you?”

Chester and Monia frowned at Rowan’s words and opened their mouths at the same time.

“That’s not what I want to hear from you.”

“Sure. It’s not something I want to hear from someone who makes a living doing mercenary work.”

“No, I heard you guys worked as mercenaries for a while too?”

“We were short-lived!”

“It wasn’t even a job!”

At the brazen answer of the brazen married couple who were trained in the aristocratic world, Rowan burst into laughter again and fell over.

“Ha ha ha! Oh, heh, heh hahahaha! Crazy chicks. Do nobles have that kind of personality?”

“We’re done. Let’s talk about you, Rowan.”

Monia said as she broke off a branch of her tree with her hand and tossed it into a lit tinder. By the way, the kindling that was used today was a letter from William. Rode well

“Me? Having lived as a mercenary, is there anything else you want to hear?”

“Well, for example, why did you choose spears and sticks as weapons? It’s hard to handle a spear with one hand, but it’s unusual to have another weapon on top of that.”

At Monia’s words, Lorwan stroked her chin, not sure how to explain this.

“Why do I use a spear and a stick? Hmmm. I’ve never really thought about it… Well, what, I just took two of them because I thought, ‘If I use two of these, it will be stronger’.

At that time, Urgo, who was still arguing over words with Senna, approached.

Urgo sat next to Chester and said while preparing the ingredients that Chester was preparing.

“There are times like that in life. I don’t know, but when I meet something strangely attracted to me. I felt the same way about my wife.”

Urgo laughed as he recalled his wife and daughter, and Senna huffed up behind her.

“What were you talking about?”

“Did Urgo win? You look in a bad mood.”

“Huh? No, we compromised. I just kept yelling and it gave me a little dizziness.”

At Senna’s words, Urgo laughed and pointed at her wagon.

The horse chosen by Senna was tied to the carriage, and the horse chosen by Urgo was grazing near her carriage.

“I decided to take that horse with me without tying it to the carriage. In the meadow way.”

“What is that?”

“Wagons are family and colleagues, but they are also prey. If you run out of food, you can kill and eat the horse, and if you run next to the wagon when you are attacked, it will be used as a shield to protect the wagon.”

Chester nodded his head in agreement with Urgo’s words.

“Coming to think of it, I didn’t have to choose just one. Do you have plenty of horse food?”

Senna said as he pulled out a weed near her own ass and showed it to her. Urdo also nodded her head in agreement with Senna’s words.

“Sometimes it’s a person’s talent to think narrowly. If you turn your head a little bit, there is a better answer, but you can’t think of it and act stupid.”

At Urgo’s words, Senna blushed as if she was embarrassed.

“Here, he behaves similarly!”

“So you’re reflecting.”

“… ….”

When she felt Senna grunting at her words, Monia smiled and comforted Senna.

“By the way, where is Rex? Has anyone seen it? Sena.”

“I don’t know because it suddenly disappeared. Wouldn’t it be okay because it’s Rex?”

“Still, I am a little worried. Let me look for it I’ll be back until the meal is ready.”

Chester got up and started walking across the meadow to find Rex.

“Whoa.”

From noble mtl dot com

After some distance from the group, Chester crouched down and patted Ant, who had followed him, and let out a sigh.

“It has become a commotion. Right?”

Ant gave a small bark in agreement with Chester’s words.

Laughing at Ant’s answer, Chester chased after Ant’s ass, which smelled Rex, and watched Monia and her friends from afar as they prepared a meal as they walked through the meadow.

When the story of Reynald’s secret warehouse first came out on an uninhabited island, I thought that no matter how many there were, only the two of Chester and Monia would come here.

However, I did not know what life would be like, so I came here with really diverse people, from Urgo, who was hostile at first, to Senna, who was friendly from the beginning, to Rowan, who might have turned into an enemy if they crossed paths somewhere.

“I never thought I would step on this land again. Right after being abandoned on the island, I had no intention of returning. I was thinking of settling down somewhere else.”

However, I returned to the land I said I would never return to.

And the island that I thought I would leave after enduring it became a place where I could go back with my loved one and create a sweet future.

‘Well, once you live, things will change. Maybe it’s the taste.’

Perhaps Monia’s long-term efforts are paying off? Chester has been feeling like he’s starting to like or dislike food lately.

She pretends not to because Monia is so lovely and cute that she desperately tries to get her taste back.

I liked the salty taste rather than the sweet one. It tasted more sour than spicy.

‘How about Rex?’

Rex used to cling to Chester when he was young, but as he grew up rapidly and became huge, the time he spent alone was getting longer little by little.

It is becoming more common to leave alone somewhere and come back.

‘… ….’

Whenever he saw Rex like that, Chester thought that way.

Slowly, Rex wonders if it’s time for him to walk independently from his parents.

People at the top seem to live with their families for the rest of their lives, but wouldn’t it be different from those who lived on a small island and Rex, who grew up traveling all over the continent?

‘If Rex says he’s leaving, what will he do?’

I want to congratulate Rex on his growth, but I also feel uneasy. My body is all grown up and my strength is very strong, but I am still a child, so I wonder if I will be okay by myself.

As Chester walked, worrying, he noticed Rex sitting alone on a rock in the field, staring blankly at the sky.

– Kwang! Kong!

When Ant barks at Rex, Rex also finds Ant and Chester and shakes him happily.

Shaking his hand, Chester gave up his worries and spoke to Rex.

“Hey Rex! Let’s go eat! Mom is waiting for you!”

“Yes! Okay! I’ll be going soon!”
