Episode 130 Island (2)
Lois’s thoughts grew longer as she watched the setting sun.
‘Am I lost?’
But then he shook his head.
‘That can’t be possible.’
Even if he didn’t move while looking at the compass, his sense of direction couldn’t have been wrong.
Also, even if you have a bad sense of direction and get lost, what are the chances of returning to this island?
And that too after several hours of sailing.
“no… Let’s not jump to conclusions. “Because that possibility is not out of the question.”
Lois sighed softly.
He said to Finn, who looked at him worriedly.
“For now, let’s rest here today.”
“yes.”
Too late.
Lois gave up on the dangerous night sail and lay down on the white sand.
‘We’ll find out tomorrow whether this was a coincidence or not.’
Royce and his group spent another day on the island’s white sand beach.
They prepared to leave as soon as dawn broke.
“done.”
Lois tied a blue cloth to a nearby tree.
It was so that if he ever came back to the island, he would know right away.
“let’s go.”
Royce’s Dragon Fly is heading west with the sun at its back.
A few hours passed like that.
“Hey, Lois?!”
Finn urgently called Lois.
But Lois couldn’t answer this.
Because he too had a seriously stiff face.
“Did you come back again?”
“I know… … .”
“What should I do?”
Lois thought for a moment about Finn’s worried question.
Up to two times it could have been a coincidence.
So this time, I wanted to experiment after giving variables.
“Here we go one more time. “To the east this time.”
Lois turned the steering wheel of the Dragon Fly.
The Dragon Fly sails in the opposite direction from the morning.
‘If I come back to the island again… … .’
Royce, who was driving the Dragon Fly, had a hard look on her face.
Since Lois looked serious, the twins were quick to not play around.
Just quietly leaning on the Dragon Fly.
So we left the island at noon and another 6 hours passed.
As the dark sunset was setting, the Dragon Fly came to a halt.
Floating on the sea, Lois burst into empty laughter.
“under… This is so… .”
His gaze was straight ahead.
This one island appeared again without fail.
“I’m embarrassed.”
What I had feared turned out to be a reality.
A strange island that no matter how hard you try to escape, you end up returning.
Only then did Lois realize.
‘I got it right.’
This time, I won’t be able to easily escape from the twist of fate.
“Roy… “Can’t we go home?”
“Do I have to stay here?”
Lois sighed lightly at the twins’ soft question.
“ha… “Let’s go to the island first.”
The only thing in the vast ocean is that one island.
Whether I liked it or not, it seemed like I would have to stay on the island for a while.
Royce drove the Dragon Fly again and arrived at the white sand beach.
He said as he sat the twins and Finn down.
“Listen carefully. “We are now faced with something very serious and dangerous.”
“Roy, don’t use difficult words… … .”
“I don’t know what you’re saying.”
“… … .”
Blood suddenly rose on Lois’ forehead.
“We’re in big trouble.”
“yes? “Wham?”

“Why?”
“I’m trapped. “I’ll have to live here for a while.”
“So, this is our house?”
“Khan you idiot! “It should be called land, not house!”
“Then let’s build a house!”
“Tree house!”
“Roy, can we make a house?”
“huh? “Roiiii?”
Lois felt relieved at the twins’ brightness, without any sense of crisis.
‘I’m an idiot for trying to have a meeting with these people… … .’
Lois waved her hands helplessly.
“okay… Go build a house or something. “Don’t go far.”
“huh!”
“I won’t go far!”
As soon as Lois gave permission, the twins ran away without even looking back.
Lois’ sigh deepened as she glanced at the guys in the nearby forest.
The good news was that there was someone by his side to discuss things with.
“What will you do now?”
Was such a very normal and obvious question to ask in the current situation so welcome?
Lois smiled and answered Finn’s question.
“I have to find a way to escape.”
In Royce’s opinion, the best way to escape was to ascend to the top tier and set up a space movement system.
Since we are in the current crisis due to spatial movement, we came up with spatial movement as a solution.
But the problem is… … .
‘I don’t know when I will reach the top tier of spatial attributes… … .’
Royce’s current level is spatial attribute tier 1.
It was clear that the top tier was close, but beyond that point seemed elusive.
We don’t know how long it will take to reach the top tier in the future.
Of course, since you can’t leave the island anyway, you just have to decide and train here… … .
“How long can I last?”
Lois rubbed her chin with a thoughtful look on her face.
Water and food are essential for ordinary humans to survive.
It would be better if you had clothes that would keep you warm and protect your body, and a house that could shelter you from wind and rain.
So what about hatchlings?
A strong body that never suffers from common minor illnesses.
Moreover, they do not even need ordinary caloric intake to survive.
The same goes for hydration.
You can easily survive for several years in the desert without drinking a single sip of water.
But even a hatchling like that needed something.
‘Elixir.’
It was an elixir.
The semi-permanent magic organ Dragon Heart takes a long time to fully grow.
If it can grow properly, it will have tremendous utility in accumulating elemental power on its own, but to grow perfectly, you must consistently consume elixirs.
In particular, for Royce, who was born with the 4 attributes, the elixir was like a lifeline.
After thinking for a moment, Lois opened the sub-space on the spot and took out the elixir refrigerator.
“Let’s count this first.”
“yes!”
Lois and Finn entered the elixir class.
The elixirs were piled up next to them.
Lois rubbed her chin when she saw the pile of sheep.
“Let’s see, if I share this amount with the twins… … .”
After estimating the approximate amount, he came to a conclusion.
“I can probably survive for two or three years.”
It was a shame because I found a lot of elixirs from the stolen goods I picked up last time, otherwise it would have been quite a dangerous situation.
For Lois, it couldn’t have been anything other than fortunate.
‘The time given is at least two years… … .’
I don’t know if it would be possible to do more than that if I used the elixir sparingly, but the best I could do was to escape the island within two years.
After that, Lois and Finn sorted the elixirs by date.
Since it was directly related to survival, there could be no mistakes in calculations.
Thanks to this, Lois and Finn were stuck sorting out the elixir for an hour.
“Aggggh.”
After finishing the work and putting the elixir refrigerator into sub-space, Lois stood up.
Then, I was startled by how quiet the surroundings were.
“These guys… “Where did it go?”
The twins who were wandering in the forest near the white sand beach had disappeared.
“really! “Don’t go far!”
The island’s forest was still an unknown area.
Lois was worried that something might have happened to the twins in that place, so she went to look for them.
But soon after, his steps stopped.
This is because the guys I was looking for showed up on their own.
Lois shouted.
“hey! “I told you not to go far!”
“Yes… … .”
“Sorry… … .”
The twins were instantly stunned and slumped their shoulders.
“If you don’t listen to me one more time, I won’t play with you!”
“yes… … .”
“okay… … .”
“Ah-oh… … .”
When Lois seemed to have eased her anger slightly with their apology, the twins looked carefully at her and tugged on her sleeve.
“Roy, I have something to show you.”
“Come here.”
“We made a house, a house!”
The twins smiled brightly, as if they had never been gloomy, and took Lois’ hand one by one and led her away.
Lois pretended not to be able to win and was dragged away by the twins.
Of course, his face was very sour.
‘What have they done again?’
It didn’t take long for Lois’ expression, which was full of annoyance, to change.
The twins, who were heading somewhere with Lois in tow, pointed their hands in one direction and talked about excitement.
“How’s Roy?”
“It’s our house!”
The twins’ faces were full of pride.
“… … ?!”
On the other hand, Lois blinked in surprise.
He asked after being silent for a while.
“This… “You made it?”
“huh!”
“Me and Khan did it!”
“I did more!”
“No, I did more!”
Leaving behind the squabbling twins, Lois looked at the cabin spread out in front of her.
It is large enough for 20 people to fit in.
The tree house, built about 1m above the ground, looked quite sturdy.
The walls were flat, as if they had been cut from wood instead of just logs, and it was so neat that it made you wonder if it had been purchased from a lumber yard.
There were many traces of trees with only the stumps remaining around, so I had no choice but to believe that the twins had built that house.
“her… … .”
Lois was impressed.
‘I thought he would get crazy if I stayed next to him, so I told him to take care of it… … .’
When the twins said they were going to build a house, I didn’t really expect anything.
But isn’t this a result that completely defies expectations?
The finish of the cabin did not look like a house built by a beginner.
What’s more, there are twins living in a house like this.
It was built in just one hour?
‘Even though it falls less, a dragon is still a dragon.’
I knew it well because I learned how to do field work myself.
What a fraudulent ability Dragon Correction is.
‘What is this…? I asked them to stack blocks, and they made an apartment out of blocks.’
In a moment of surprise, the corners of Lois’ mouth slowly rose.
‘These are useful too, right?’
I never thought there would come a day in my life when I would think twins would be useful.
I thought they would always be a nuisance, but this time they had quite a use.
I had a feeling that life as a drifter on an island would become quite comfortable.
Lois patted the head of the twins who were giving bright eyes in front of her.
“good job! “Well done!”
“right?”
“lol.”
The twins are stroking their heads and smiling.
Lois smiled at those children.
“You can continue to do this in the future.”
“from now on?”
“yes?”
Lois pointed to the vacant lot that was created when the cabin was being built.
“Now, make this your secret base.”
Anyway, if you were going to live on the island for a while, you needed a place to live.
Lois left that task to the twins.
“Rain, a secret base?”
“Huh?!”
On the other hand, the twins’ eyes widened when they heard that it was a secret base.
Soon, their eyes were filled with bright starlight.
“I will! “I’ll do it!”
“We’ll build that secret base!”
This was the first time I had seen Lois so motivated since meeting the twins.
The twins moved quickly before Lois could stop them.
“Secret base~”
“Non-American base~”
Twins running around humming a song.
And Lois looks at this darkly.
“Hehe, simple things.”
For kids, having their own secret space was like a dream.
How convenient is it to work voluntarily like this?
“pin.”
“yes!”
“You watch over the twins.”
“yes yes!”
Lois, who had solved the living space using the twins, turned her attention.
‘Then shall I begin full-scale exploration?’
After standing blankly for a moment, he stretched.
Heat filled Lois’ eyes.
“Hehe.”
What if fate wants to trap him here?
“Just break it and escape.”
All we have to do is to bravely face the coming fate as we have done so far.
In order to do that… … .
‘I need to do some research on this island.’
He had to find out what the island’s secret was that was holding him back.
And since they were going to be stuck on the island for a while anyway, a thorough investigation was necessary.
This is to exclude any dangerous elements.
“Okay, let’s do it.”
Lois made a small promise and smiled brightly.
That’s how Lois, the twins, and Finn’s life on the island began.
