Aita Kindergarten was the most prestigious educational facility for lower grades and was a place where children from all over the country gathered.
However, Velvet is the first to proudly wear an S+ brooch even in such a prestigious family.
“Kyahang-!”
As Velvet appeared, proudly placing her hands on her waist, cheers erupted from everywhere.
“wow… … . This is my first time seeing S+… … .”
“Okay… … “Is Velvet stronger than Yuhan?”
“That’s right! “Isn’t Velvet the strongest in our Eita!?”
“You fool, of course Yuhan is strong! A high grade isn’t everything, right?”
What kind of trick of fate is this?
Yu Han was the most promising successor in the Yu family, headed by Yu Min-seo, Shin Yu-seong’s mother.
On the other hand, Velvet, who is being compared, is a dragon born by absorbing the potential of Sardonyx and Shin Yu-seong and Adella’s mana, and is an extraordinary case from birth.
‘… … This guy is S+?’
Yuhan frowns in disbelief and scans the velvet with eyes that seem too cold to be a child.
‘merge… … Stare at Velvet so hard! ‘It’s absolutely scorching!’
However, no matter how competitive he was, Velvet did not consider Yuhan a rival.
‘Sumire’s mom is right! ‘There’s a lot of friends here!’
I was just amazed to see so many students around Eita’s age.

Sigh! with a splash! Sigh-!
The sound of waves ringing in my ears.
Amy opened her eyes in the cold, her whole body shaking from the gust of wind.
“Umm, uhm… … W, what about here?”
Slap-thud!
Amy’s eyes widened as the huge impact of the waves hitting the ferry boat rocked her as if it would capsize, and then she urgently looked around.
“Mo, mo, this! Where am I!?”
Clearly, the place Amy expected was Women’s Island, but the place she opened her eyes was on a gray sea covered in sea fog and unable to see an inch ahead.
The atmosphere of the sea is such that it is not strange at all even if a deep-sea monster suddenly appears and capsizes the boat.
[Quest: Survive somehow and arrive at Woman Island.]
[Details- You are stranded in the rough waters of the Monarch Archipelago with some food and a ferry. Your number one goal is survival.]
Amy looked at the items on the ship after hearing the explanation of a strange quest. However, no matter how much I searched the ferry, the only thing I found in the bag was a few pieces of beef jerky and a bottle of mineral water.
“Is this all?”
gulp-
Amy swallowed her saliva and looked at her surroundings again. However, there was not even a trace of land, let alone an island, around. All you can see is the endless gray ocean and the crashing waves.
‘… … What’s going on here that I can go back alive!?’
Amy thought as she saw the scene. How unlucky do you have to be to end up in a place like this? Will I be able to set foot on land alive?
‘okay! Could they have dropped him in a place like this to starve to death? Even though it looks like this now, it will arrive soon!’
But all I could do now was to somehow turn on the happiness circuit and think positive thoughts.
* * *
Six hours, like six years, have passed since Amy drifted away like that.
Above all, the biggest problem that came to Amy as the night deepened was the biting cold.
Hwiiiii- Yiiiii-!
Even though the temperature has dropped so much, the wind is so strong that it blows my hair.
“cold… … .”
Rummaging through-
Amy rummaged through her pockets to see if she could find anything to keep herself warm.
“Oh, there was this… … .”
What caught Amy’s eye was the simple tent she had prepared to use when staying in the forest.
“Hehe, I should have done it a long time ago… … .”
Amy, who set up a tent on a ferry to take refuge, was barely able to avoid freezing to death.
However, even after avoiding the wind, the situation did not improve much. I had already drank the bottle of water that was in the bag, and no matter how much I searched my pockets, the only food I found was a few candies that I didn’t know when I put them in and some beef jerky that was in the bag.
‘Because you never know what might happen with beef jerky. Let’s save it for now.’
Since survival was at stake now, no matter how much her stomach growled, Amy held it back.
“… … “I need to sleep now.”
* * *
16 hours of drifting.
Amy came out of the tent, looked at the brightly rising sun, and clutched her hungry stomach.
“If this goes on… … “It won’t be long before you starve to death.”
In this extreme situation, the studies I learned at the academy were surprisingly not helpful. Amy knew how to deal with level 3 monsters efficiently, but she didn’t know how to get food when she was stranded at sea.
‘I’d rather have beef jerky… … .’
Wouldn’t this be a lot of savings?
Wouldn’t it be better to eat now rather than starve to death like this? As Amy looked at her beef jerky with her devastated eyes, a memory of her from a few days ago suddenly came back to her.
[If you haven’t had dinner, would you like to have dinner with us, Amy?]
[Mine is okay~ I think I ate too much and it was a bit steamy! I don’t plan on eating dinner tonight!]
Himself not eating the curry prepared by Sumire.
[What do you eat so deliciously?]
[Kyahang~ This? It’s a cake that was in the refrigerator! Do you want to mug?]
[I’m done. I ate it earlier.]
The image of himself refusing the red velvet cake that Velvet gave him.

“Ugh, no. Please eat… … .”
Why on earth did that happen?
Why didn’t I eat it then?
If I had eaten then, wouldn’t I be a little less hungry now?
“I want to eat… … Sumire’s curry. Sweet cake… … .”
But no matter how much Amy regretted it now, the food she had left did not return. All Amy has is dried beef jerky and a few candies.
“Ugh… … .”
Amy looked at the gray sea with slumped shoulders.
Kuuuk-
He clenched his fists and shouted.
“okay! I can’t stay still like this! “We have to survive somehow!”
Amy had better ideas than dumping what little beef jerky she had into her mouth.
That’s fishing by hanging a piece of beef jerky on the end of a whip.
“It would be better than now if I could just catch a few fish!”
How long has it been since Amy started fishing with such ambition?
Amy, who was wasting time by dropping her whip into the sea, suddenly thought of something.
‘… … ‘Was this crazy?’
In such a large ocean, what are the odds of a fish coming up near the surface and discovering its own jerky?
Are there really fish in this eerie gray sea?
‘I don’t think the beef jerky used as bait is soaked in salt water and can’t be eaten… … .’
Amy felt miserable about herself, fishing in the open sea with jerky tied to her whip to catch fish.
Just when I was thinking about stopping this stupid thing.
flinch-!
He bit the end of the whip to eat some jerky.
Amy’s whip didn’t have a hook like a real fishing rod, so it was important to reel it in the moment the fish bit.
It required reaction speed and strength that would be impossible for an ordinary person, but even so, Amy is a proud hunter who belongs to Gaon’s Class A.
“I asked!”
Amy, who felt a heavy weight, snatched up the whip with incredible speed, thinking that now was the time.
with a splash-!
What really followed the whip onto the sea was a fish the size of your forearm.
Flap! Flap! Flap!
As the fish caught in the jerky and brought onto the ferry boat flapped vigorously as if asking for its life, Amy fell to her knees and looked up at the sky.
“Gotcha-”
I let out the breath I had been holding.
“Daaaaaa-!”
It roared like a lion.
“okay-!”
If you think about it, everything in life is like that.
“I was right!”
There are times when moments of frustration arise due to unexpected obstacles.
“This is right!”
No matter how long you wait, there are times when you don’t get results and you want to give up.
However, thanks to drifting, which I thought was the worst, I learned the importance of food and was able to catch fish after a long wait.
“You don’t have to starve anymore!”
Amy skewered fish on a ferry boat and carefully lit a fire using mana.
Hwareuk-!
Then, as he watched the fish becoming increasingly golden brown with the fat inside its body, he smiled, making it difficult to tell if he was happy or sad.
Of course, that too for a while.
Amy devoured the grilled fish without even seasonings such as salt.
The grilled fish I ate like that was food I wouldn’t have even bothered to eat normally, but it was so delicious.
‘okay. perhaps… … .’
In the long race called life, aren’t the moments you thought of as misfortune a necessary part of it?
Because there is hunger, there is fullness.
Because there are uphills, there are downhills.
Amy raised her head and looked at the sky. The sunny sun had already set and the sky had turned a gloomy color. The sun went down and she felt cold again, but Amy didn’t feel bad.
“rather… … .”
Tuduk-tuk-
I smiled brightly as I watched the rain slowly pouring from the sky.
“be empty! it is raining!”
Normally, she would have disliked the sudden rain, saying it was humid, but for Amy, who was stranded at sea, this was like the rain of life.
Chajak- Chak!
Amy thought as she laid out a bunch of glass bottles on the bottom of the ferry boat.
Even at the same moment.
Sadness for some.
It can be a joy to someone.
The joys and sorrows that come to you in life depend on your ability to accept them.
Even though she was drifting on the sea, risking her life and death, Amy, who felt a lot in a short period of time, smiled with great satisfaction.
“okay. “I am happy now.”
No matter how long the storm ends, a sunny day will come.
