Chapter 94
I sighed and laid out the wet items on the gravel to dry, then examined my notebook. The notebook had gotten wet, causing all the notes I had written to smear.
“Damn it! Nothing’s going right!”
But fortunately, the cloth with the bunker map drawn on it was safe. Was it printed with reactive dye? I don’t know if it’s modern technology or magical technology, but anyway, it’s fortunate that it’s fine even when wet.
“I need to move for now.”
I took a deep breath for a moment and slowly got up from my spot. Since the wound was on my side rather than my lower abdomen, I thought I could move if I was careful.
I looked around. Across the huge river that I presumably fell into, there was a densely wooded forest.
Naturally, my companions were nowhere to be seen. On top of that, I didn’t even know whether I was on North Island or South Island, so this was a huge problem.
I stood blankly on the pebble field and sniffled. I felt like tears were about to come again.
“Could it be that I’m dead?”
I died and became an earthbound spirit of this island. Earthbound spirits don’t realize they’re dead. So they endlessly repeat the same time in that place.
“No way. That can’t be. The wound hurts too much.”
Having experienced too many unrealistic things, I felt like my imagination was becoming richer while my thinking and judgment were becoming duller.
“Maybe I’m just going crazy.”
I just stared blankly at the flowing river water. My head was too dizzy.
What happened to the others? Especially Enoch.
‘Enoch can’t do without me.’
Then I remembered that Enoch was left on South Island with Asdal and Yuanna.
If Yuanna is with Enoch… it might be okay. In the original story, Yuanna solved Enoch’s episodes with love.
As I was thinking that, my chest throbbed with pain. I didn’t feel good imagining the two of them together.
‘I’m worried about Kaiden too.’
Are they all safe?
Why did this have to happen to me? Miserable and desperate feelings swept through me like a burst dam.
‘This is hard.’
I swallowed the tears that had risen to my throat.
If there is a god, what exactly do they want from me? Why are they doing this to me?
‘I really lived earnestly.’
And even now I’m desperately holding on to survive.
My eyes grew hot. I tried to swallow my tears and pressed my eyelids firmly with the back of my hand.
“Oh… I thought you were dead.”
Then I heard a young voice from somewhere.
Startled, I turned my head to see a young boy who looked about elementary school age standing on a hill on the island, holding a bunch of coconuts in his arms and looking at me.
I stared at the boy for quite a long time. Was I seeing things right now?
“Are you human?”
I was so surprised that I asked the boy a ridiculous question.
‘Of course you’re human, what else would you be, a ghost?’
The silver-haired boy who had been looking at me with an expressionless face widened his eyes and showed a surprised expression. After pausing for a moment, the boy asked me in a quiet voice.
“…Stupid?”
“No!”
My face burned with embarrassment.
I forgot about digging into the ground with depression just moments ago and placed the back of my hand against my cheek to calm the burning heat. Then I looked at the boy again.
He was an incredibly beautiful boy with neat short hair that swayed around his neck. He was also staring intently at me.
His face remained expressionless the whole time, so I couldn’t tell what he was thinking.
“I thought you were dead.”
After saying that, he paused for quite a while again, then
“Because you weren’t breathing earlier.”
He added. This is going to kill me.
I looked at the boy more calmly than before. His face looked far too young to be alone on this treacherous island.
“How old are you?”
At my question, the boy tilted his head and made a thoughtful face for quite a while. He looked down at the ground, then up at the sky once while thinking, before finally opening his mouth.
“…Twelve?”
“Why are you thinking so hard when I’m asking about your age?”
When I asked in confusion, the boy furrowed his brow and pondered for quite a while again.
“I don’t know how much time has passed.”
Not knowing how much time has passed – does that mean this boy was also forcibly transported to this island and doesn’t know how long it’s been since then?
In the original story, there were no other people on this deserted island besides the main characters.
‘Nothing matches the original story.’
I pressed my temples firmly.
Even though he’s just a young boy, can I trust this child who doesn’t appear in the original story?
‘I definitely need to be cautious.’
While I was thinking about this, the boy tilted his head slightly and asked me.
“How old are you, miss?”
“I’m twenty-two.”
At my answer, the boy nodded. Then he replied calmly.
“That’s old.”
“This is still young.”
Twenty-two is youth, youth!
While grumbling like that, I realized my mood had improved considerably from earlier.
It was thanks to the boy appearing. To think there was another survivor. Just moments ago I had fallen into despair thinking I had to survive alone on this harsh remote island, but now I felt a bit of hope.
I suddenly looked down. One of the coconuts the boy had dropped had rolled all the way to my feet.
The boy approached me while picking up the coconuts he had dropped. I wanted to help pick up the coconut at my feet, but I couldn’t bend my waist because of my injury.
The boy picked up the remaining coconut at my feet and looked up at me intently.
“Is your injury okay?”
The boy asked in a calm voice, pointing at my dress that was soaked with blood.
“It’s not okay.”
“I thought so. You look like you’re in pain.”
The boy spoke to me with a face that showed no emotion.
I quietly looked at the boy and carefully examined his appearance. It was because the boy’s outfit was quite peculiar.
First of all, the boy was wearing sneakers. White Nike Dunk Highs that came up to his ankles, no less. What was most surprising was that the sneakers were spotlessly white without a speck of dirt.
I sneakily looked down at my own sneakers. The sneakers I had picked up from the cabin were already grimy with dirt.
On top of that, the boy was wearing shorts and a neat short-sleeve hoodie.
What was strange was that he was wearing an Imperial mage robe over it. It was the same robe issued by the Magic Tower as Kaiden’s.
‘Very suspicious.’
But then again, he could have picked up modern items like sneakers from somewhere, just like I did.
The boy was definitely from the Empire. There are no people on Earth with silver hair and red eyes.
“Who are you? How did you get here? Are you alone?”
I asked the most basic questions first.
The boy stared intently at my face again, then after a long while gave an irrelevant answer.
“Sister is pretty.”
“Could you answer my question? I already know I’m pretty.”
At my response, the boy slowly nodded his head.
“Jenas Igran.”
“Is that your name?”
At my question, he slowly nodded again. Jenas Igran. Since he doesn’t have a middle name, he’s probably not nobility.
“How did you get here?”
“I don’t know either.”
The boy who answered that way, Jenas, paused again and then said,
“When I opened my eyes, I was here.”
It seems speaking in fragments is his habit.
‘Overall, his actions and speech are leisurely.’
Opening his eyes and finding himself here was similar to our situation. To think even a child this young was dragged to this dangerous island.
“What about other people? Have you been alone this whole time?”
At my question, Jenas slowly nodded.
“I’ve been alone the whole time.”
After answering that way, he made a thoughtful face and watched my reaction. He looked like he was seriously considering whether to say something or not.
“Go ahead, what is it?”
“The people who came with me all died. That’s why I’m alone.”
“…What?”
It was one shocking story after another.
