I'm Stuck on a Remote Island With the Male Leads - Chapter 130
***
Arthdal opened his eyes because his body felt uncomfortable from the rough movement. He could see the blue sky moving in his field of vision.
-drag.
-drag.
His body trembled and shook.
He quickly moved his body and groaned in pain.
His back pain was excruciating. Perhaps his bones are broken.
“Huh? Are you awake?”
Yuanna’s voice came from above his head. She put him on a giant leaf and was dragging him along.
“Phew. I thought I was going to die of hard work.”
Arthdal somehow thanked her and felt sorry for her, so he tried to get his body up.
“Don’t even try. I even ate all of your meals. That’s why you lost consciousness so easily.” Yuanna sighed, stopping him from getting up.
Arthdal somehow felt embarrassed and blushed. “Thank you for your help. You saved me.”
“Yes, you should thank me for saving you. You owe me two lives.”
“I will definitely pay you back.”
Yuanna smiled at his firm answer.
“Yes, I will look forward to it.”
Arthdal turned his head to check where he felt pain. It’s not a hip fracture but a fracture in the upper abdomen.
‘Didn’t Young Lady Floné injure her ribs once?’
Margaret had suffered the same injury the other day. At that time, she said that she should protect her stomach and support her waist with something hard and thick.
Arthdal was wearing indoor clothes, not uniform, so he didn’t even have a jacket that would firmly support his waist like a protector.
“When you break a rib, it’s better to walk a lot than to rest. Don’t worry.”
That’s what Margaret said to Enoch, who was about to postpone his schedule in consideration of her at the time.
“Huh? Why are you getting up?”
Yuanna grumbled while dragging the leaf he was lying on, then looked at him with a puzzled face.
Arthdal stood up and looked back at her. Then he narrowed his brows at the surging pain he felt.
“The symptoms are the same as when Young Lady Floné was injured before. The location of the injury is similar. Didn’t she say it was better to walk?”
Only then did Yuanna let out an exclamation with an understanding face. She rested her chin on her hand and fell into her thoughts with a serious face.
“Young Lady Floné sure knows a lot.”
Arthdal agreed a hundred times with her murmur.
He said, “It made me wonder if she was the young lady I knew. It was as if she had been hiding her true self all along.”
A glint passed through Yuanna’s eyes as she turned to Arthdal with a face full of interest.
“I know, right. It would be nice to meet Young Lady Floné soon.”
Arthdal completely agreed with her words.
It’s hard to survive on this island without Margaret. Without Margaret’s help, he might have died sooner.
But how has he treated her so far? Didn’t he doubt her every time? Arthdal took a deep breath as he reminisced about the past.
I have nothing to say even if Margaret runs away because she doesn’t want to be with me.
It’s all my karma, so I can’t help it.
When he reunites with Margaret again after this, he may have to face the anger and humiliation expressed by her. Because he is the one who would still suspect Margaret even if he could turn back time.
Arthdal moved his body as carefully as possible and scanned the surroundings.
“Did we cross over to the North Island?”
“Oh, yes. We just crossed over.”
At Yuanna’s words, Arthdal realized that the long road behind his back is the one connecting the North Island and the South Island.
Then, Yuanna took out a map from her pocket and spread it out, examining the terrain.
“Hmm, looks like there are supplies around here. Should we pack them up and head west? It’s pretty close from here.”
Arthdal followed Yuanna and looked at the map. As she said, there’s a sign saying ‘Supply’ in the eastern part of North Island. It’s pretty close to where they are, so it shouldn’t be that hard to stop by.
Supplies had also been found on the South Island before. But there were only a few things they knew how to use. Besides, they were facing a swamp at the time, so they had to throw away some of the things they had packed.
“I think it’s important to gather as many supplies as possible in order to escape. I wish I had a weapon.”
Hearing Yuanna mutter to herself, Arthdal stared at her face.
“You talk as if you know how to escape.”
At Arthdal’s words, Yuanna raised her head. She stared at him for a moment then answered calmly, “I know there’s an escape in that damn boy’s cabin. You need a weapon to get there.”
“That damn boy?”
Arthdal narrowed his eyes at Yuanna’s answer. She again said something hard to understand.
Arthdal stared at her calm face for a moment with a bit of nervousness. And he carefully tried his luck.
“There’s something I wanted to ask you for a long time……”
“Go ahead.”
Yuanna shrugged her shoulders and replied casually. Really, she had a face that looked like she could answer anything.
Arthdal decided to ask everything he had been curious about.
“I have been wondering why you suddenly changed your attitude. Don’t even try to deny it. You clearly changed all of sudden after Young Lady Floné fell into the river.”
“……”
“Did you suddenly remember something? What the heck do you actually know……”
Just in time,
-kooooo.
A strange sound echoed from far away.
Arthdal and Yuanna, who were looking at the map, raised their heads at the same time.
It was midday, with the sun blazing hot.
They were aware that the behavior patterns of the monsters were changing because monsters appeared even in the middle of the day.
However, the screaming heard now was a grotesque scream of a kind unheard of in the South Island.
Yuanna’s face gradually turned pale. Hardened, she turned her head to Arthdal.
“Oh, my God…… I forgot. M-monsters evolve……”
“What do you mean?”
“Originally, monsters only appeared in the middle of the night.”
“What?”
“And just before I turned back time, they started appearing when the sunset started to set.”
Arthdal narrowed her eyes, not knowing what she was talking about. You turned back time? What else does that mean?
However, Yuanna seemed unwilling to explain in detail. She continued to mutter as if talking to herself.
“Not only that. I heard their forms will also change.”
From who?
Arthdal had a lot of questions to ask, but Yuanna dragged his arm in a hurry with her trembling hand, so he could not ask any deeper questions.
“Your Highness, that’s the sound made by a monster. We have to run away.”
However, they didn’t go far before encountering the group of monsters in question.
They are in a bizarre form beyond recognition.
‘It’s a mountain beyond a mountain.’[1]
[1] It means you are in increasingly difficult situations.
Arthdal muttered to himself the words Margaret often used. It may be really hard to survive this time.
***
I woke up on a soft bed.
I don’t even know how much time has passed. My head is very clear and I feel very refreshed.
I tossed and turned and realized that it was a bit uncomfortable.
“Mmm.”
A low, sleepy voice rang in my ears.
Only then did I open my eyes wide. Strong muscles and soft bare skin came into view.
Oh, my God!
I thought I had a dream last night.
But it wasn’t a dream.
Hold up…… So it wasn’t a dream?
I jumped up. In the bed, Kayden and Enoch were asleep with me, topless.
I don’t know how Enoch and Kayden got into the bunker. I looked around, but Ruzef and Diego were nowhere to be seen.
These two men are asleep, oblivious to my movements. Apparently, they were both very tired, just like me. It had been almost half a year since they hadn’t slept in bed, so it was understandable.
I’ve never seen Enoch fall asleep this deeply. I’ve never seen him fall asleep soundly since coming to this island, but he’s asleep without even knowing I’m waking up.
I stared at his face and carefully tidied the messy hair on his forehead. Then I gently touched his forehead with my thumb.
How is your skin so smooth?
Slowly, I lowered my hand, brushing the bridge of his nose and resting it on his soft lips.
I suddenly recalled the kiss from last night and immediately withdrew my hand.
“Mmm.”
Then, Kayden’s large hand reached from behind and wrapped around my stomach. He stretched out his arm in his sleep and hugged me.
I glanced back at him. His sleeping face is also very handsome. Perhaps because of his pure white silver hair and gorgeous looks, he really looks like an angel.
‘By the way, didn’t Kayden say he’s immune to poison?’
From my memories last night, it was clear that he was also poisoned.
As far as I know, only the low body temperature of an unpoisoned person can detoxify the toxic substance from the Tentathionem flower……
Considering that even Kayden who had immunity was even poisoned too, it didn’t seem like it was normal poisoning.
Then, recalling the deep kiss I shared with them, I buried my face in my hands. It was my first kiss, but I did it out of my mind. It’s driving me crazy!
‘Jenas you bastard.’
I could have caught him if it weren’t for Tentathionem. It occurred to me that the flowers here were planted by Jenas, so even Anata can’t touch them.
Certainly, it would not be easy to access the door if it was a deadly poison that had such a powerful poisoning effect. Besides, it’s not just a door that opens when you open it.
I removed Kayden’s arm from my stomach and got out of bed in a daze.
My whole body feels weak, maybe because I poured so much energy last night.
I don’t know how it happened, but the look of my clothes didn’t make sense. The white t-shirt was stretched and torn, which was quite unsightly. This makes me uncomfortable since this is all the aftermath of that damn poisonous flower.
There are a lot of clothes hanging on a hanger in the corner of the room.
‘All right.’
I quickly picked a top from among the clothes hanging carefully so that the men wouldn’t wake up. This time, I had no choice but to wear this white short-sleeved cropped tee.
Still, there’s one bomber jacket here, so I can wear this black bomber over a crop top. As for the pants, the only thing hanging on the hanger was jeans, so I decided to just wear the cargo pants I was wearing.
At that time, Eunji, who had been sleeping coiled up on the carpet, woke up. The kid who was startled when he saw me was jumping up and down and circling around me.
I smiled and stroked his scales, then looked at the men sleeping on the bed.
Just then, Enoch was getting up, rustling on the bed. Kayden is still in dreamland.
“Margaret…?”
He called me with a deep, low voice.
Enoch sat on the edge of the bed and rubbed his face with his hand. Then he put his hand on his chin and raised his eyebrows as he looked at me.
“Why are you already awake?”
His eyes were languid, probably because he had just woken up. Since he even took off his top, there was an extremely sensual air radiating from him.
