Watching Amamiya Natsuki disappear into the darkness, Yukinoshita Yukino let out a quiet breath of relief. She raised her right hand and gently covered her chest.
For some reason,
her heart was pounding uncontrollably, and the tips of her ears were burning...
Haruno: Yukino is still a child. Let me take over.
Before they knew it, the sky had grown dark.
Just like in Wilderness Survival, once night fell, the number and variety of monsters increased noticeably. For ordinary people, danger lurked everywhere, and every step was fraught with peril.
But Amamiya Natsuki had only gone for a quick look around the depths of the forest. In no more than ten minutes, he returned from the hunt carrying over a dozen spiders with their heads and legs removed.
"Natsuki-classmate is back!"
"Come in, come in!"
"It's completely dark outside now."
"..."
Seeing Amamiya Natsuki return, the girls sitting in the cave waved and called out to him.
Amamiya Natsuki entered the cave and held out the spiders in his hands.
"We'll have these for dinner, too."
Seeing the dark, unappetizing spiders, the girls all looked disgusted, but no one insisted that she wouldn't eat one. Even Shoko silently reached out and timidly accepted a spider, ready to roast it herself.
The shells and sea urchins Chika had collected while diving earlier were only enough for a small snack, nowhere near enough to fill them up.
After a busy day, the girls were already ravenous and had learned just how awful hunger could be.
Real Wilderness Survival could cure anyone of picky eating.
When you were desperately thirsty, you might even have to do as Bear Grylls did and recycle wastewater by producing it yourself.
Crackle, crackle~
The spiders, skewered on bamboo sticks and roasting over the fire, crackled from time
