Survive on a Deserted Island With the Villainous Young Lady - Chapter 296



296 – Battle Area (3)

Kwasik!

Urgo broke the lid of the keg with his fist, then dipped the glass in his hand into it, took out the liquor inside, and drank it generously.

“Oh! “This is good!”

Urgo chuckled and tilted his cask, and the surprised people quickly held out their cups.

“Hey! “You crazy guy!”

“Ah! “All the alcohol is spilling!”

“Isn’t there a rip-off, a rip-off?!”

“Oh my god!”

“hahahahaha! “When you have fun, you have to enjoy it generously!”

When everyone’s glasses seemed to be somewhat full, Urgo put down the keg and put the two in the keg again and made a toast.

After a round of toasts, they all sat around the campground drinking and eating.

Monia and Sena skewered various foods on tree branches, placed a little cheese on them, and grilled them over a fire.

Ingredients that need to be grilled leisurely and for a long time are placed on logs and cooked indirectly by receiving the heat of the campfire.

While watching what Monia and Senna were doing, Chester cut a large chunk of beef jerky with a knife and ate it little by little as a snack while drinking.

Rex danced while humming a random song, and when Lorwan saw it, he got up and danced with him.

Urgo watched the night sky, drank strong liquor like water, and hummed a song of the meadow.

“The night sky is no different here or in the meadow. “Good heavens.”

Chester, who received two skewers from Monia, handed one of her skewers to Urgo and said,

“Is that so?”

“Yes. “When I was young, I saw a river of stars spreading out in the night sky.”

Urgo pointed to the Milky Way.

“There are times when a river of stars passes through our meadow, cutting through the center of the sky. Then, I heard the sound of my heart. With only my horse, I ran along the river of stars and ran again. My horse got tired and stopped, so I ran on my own feet. “I literally ran to the end of the meadow.”

Urgo, who was born as a hero, was never tired. Even though he ran and ran, the vitality that surged from his body was endless.

Children who are naturally light and require little stamina to move tend to appear to adults as having infinite stamina.

But what was it like for Urgo, who had a young body and the body of a hero?

“When I reached the end of the meadow, I saw a wide open sea. And I knew it when I saw the river of stars that stretched to the end of the sea. “This world is not just about grasslands, it also exists to the unknown, distant end.”

Urgo grinned.

“I was relieved.”

“You felt relieved?”

“Because it was different from others.”

A body that is different from others. At those words, Chester turned his eyes from the night sky and looked at Urgo.

“I was young, and at that time, even adults could not defeat me by force. It was enough for me to realize that I was very different from others. My parents weren’t strong like me. So I thought, maybe I should be alone in the world.”

However, Urgo was relieved when he saw the vast world with no end in sight.

“If the world is this big, I shouldn’t be the only one making money. Whether there is someone similar to me somewhere in the world or not, I am nothing compared to the world. Then, wouldn’t it be okay to just live the way you want with peace of mind?”

“… ….”

“You were worried too, right? The power to become so strong that it rivals mine in just a moment is not common. “Something has changed inside your body.”

“… ….”

“It must have been confusing. I feel like I’m wandering. But maybe you would have taken care of Monia’s feelings.”

“Hmm. It did.”

“Yes. “I guess so.”

Urgo took another drink. He empties the entire cup in one sip and pours alcohol back into the empty cup.

“Thank goodness. “That’s great.”

“What?”

“What the river of stars and the enormity of the world is to me is Monia to you.”

“… ….”

“I had a woman like that too.”

Urgo lost her family. Chester, who knew this, listened without saying anything.

I wonder if he’s drunk, but looking at him talking, it seems like he’s drunk not from the alcohol but from the atmosphere.

Urgo took a bite of her skewer and she laughed.

“The world is so big and dangerous that no matter how strong you are, there are times when you end up unable to protect and lose what is precious.”

Even though Urgo had that much power, he was captured and imprisoned by the enemy. And he had to watch his family being humiliated and torn to pieces before his eyes.

“… ….”

“I understand that there is deep anxiety in your heart.”

“Hmm.”

“Rest assured.”

Urgo tapped Chester on the shoulder.

“I am. “Don’t worry, I will protect you even if it is out of your reach.”

Urgo grinned as he said that. Hearing those words, Chester unconsciously smiled with relief.

Jesper’s territory is an area under Duke Raynald. As the area played the role of a huge blood vessel and important organ distributing supplies to nearby areas, the surrounding areas naturally dried up due to the tight blockage of supplies there.

However, then why does no region dare to raid Jesper’s territory and plunder supplies?

In the territory near Chester and his party, why do they only aim their weapons at each other and not turn them elsewhere?

It was all because of ‘some entity’ wandering around the area, centered around Jasper’s territory.

People called it the devil. It was believed that the duke, who had once faced death, was a devil dragged out of hell.

In fact, the duke never died, and this so-called devil was not actually a real devil, but an artificial creature created by ancient humans who lived here before the Kingdom of Viend was created, but the truth or the inside story was not very important.

In defining a certain existence, the external appearance and the form that people accept are more important than the essence of the thing.

Just as when a fish that is not actually a shark is called a type of shark, people in the past mistook the oil on a whale’s head for semen and called the whale a semen whale, and even after the truth was revealed, it was still called a semen whale. If people accept it as a devil, then it is a devil.

Therefore, the duke’s knight and the devil of hell, so called by the people the ‘evil knight’, was active in various places on the battlefield, but at the same time patrolled around the territory controlled by Duke Raynald, maintained security, and guarded against any enemy or rebel. It also played a role in defeating .

And of course, news of the commotion caused by Chester and his party in Jasper’s territory was relayed to the demonic knights patrolling nearby through the surviving knights in the territory.

Because he was staying a little far away from Jesper’s territory, he was delayed in moving, but as soon as he heard the news, the demon knight galloped across the meadow with his lower body in the shape of a horse and chased down Chester and his party who had run away from Jesper’s territory.

A person’s upper body riding on top of a horse’s lower body received a lot of air, so it was not at all suitable for running fast, but with the Demon Knight’s strength, that was no problem.

In addition, the four-horse wagon carrying a lot of supplies left such a large trace that it was not difficult to trace it along the trace.

The deserter who entered the forest heard a commotion coming from afar and thought that he, who was on the verge of death from hunger and fatigue, was hearing hallucinations.

The dizzying scent of alcohol penetrates your nose. The fragrant smell of meat that makes your mouth water, as if it was being grilled over a fire. And above all, the voices of people who were not exhausted and devastated by war.

Just hearing that voice, laughing and talking excitedly while being overly drunk like innocent children who don’t know anything, made me think that I was standing at the entrance to heaven after death.

The deserter walked as if possessed and headed towards the place where the sound was heard.

However, there was only a low hill where the sound was heard, and there were no traces of people anywhere.

The light is not visible. There is no human form visible. However, sounds and smells continue to be heard.

The deserter stretched out his hand and tried to touch the rising hill. However, before he could do anything, a human arm shot out from the hill and grabbed the deserter’s arm with brutal force.

“Huh?! Uh, uh!”

The deserter tried to resist. However, he was starving and exhausted and did not have the strength to resist.

“Open.”

A small sound is heard, and his large hand pushes the hill up.

Then, a sudden scent and warm light came out. It looks like a bonfire was built on a log, and leaves were covering it, blocking the light.

The deserter was pulled into the hill, and Chester, who was dragging the deserter in, took out a knife and aimed it at the deserter’s neck.

“Chester, are you going to kill me here?”

From noble mtl dot com

“No. I’m going to stay here for a few days and I can’t leave the body behind. “Let’s just tie it up first.”

It’s huge.

They were different from deserters whose bodies had been torn apart by prolonged starvation.

A secret space in the forest. Everyone there was full of life and vitality, and at the same time, they were not particularly shaken when talking about someone’s death.

“All of you.”

The deserter asked, trembling with fear.

“Hey, are they fairies?”

There is something mysterious that resides in the forest: a fairy. It was not that rare, but rather a common thought and judgment.

“What?”

It could not help but sound absurd to the people there.

“They say you’re a fairy?”

“hahahaha!”

“What do you think?” “It’s better than an evil spirit or a witch, right?”

“Let’s do the tying first?”

“Fairy! Fairy!”

“Rex, do you like being called a fairy?”

“I am a fairy!”

The fairies laughed excitedly and tied up the deserter with the rope they had brought.
