Why Are You All So Dense?
As for the accompanying personnel, besides the stubborn girl Yukina, there was only Gada.
According to her, she also wanted to see how far this man, Kanase Kensei, could take the art of Mock Angel.
However, halfway through the journey, they gained another person in their entourage.
She was also a girl.
She was tall and slender, with fair skin and light-colored hair. Her elegant and beautiful face was reminiscent of blooming cherry blossoms.
It was none other than Sayaka Kirasaka of the Lion King Agency.
"Tsk, Sayaka Kirasaka, why are you here too? Were you secretly following me? You stalker!"
"Huh?! Are you kidding me? Believe me or not, I'll chop you in half with one sword! Who would follow a pervert like you? If anyone's going to follow me, it'll be Yukina!"
Sayaka Kirasaka retorted confidently.
"If it weren't for the First Princess of Ardigia, do you think I'd want to share a plane with a pervert like you?!"
Unsurprisingly, the two started arguing again, just like always.
Although it was Yotsuba Mahiro who started this.
"Sayaka Kirasaka... and Mahiro... please, please stop arguing..."
On the luxurious private jet, Yukina sat curled up in her seat, trembling slightly, but still managed to speak up to stop the two from arguing.
Upon hearing Yukina's words, Sayaka Kirasaka quickly turned around and hugged her apologetically.
"I'm sorry, Yukina, I forgot you're not used to flying. I'll come and comfort you now."
No one could have imagined that the Sword Wizard of the Lion King Agency would be afraid of flying.
Even the well-traveled and knowledgeable Gada couldn't help but feel a bit interested in this little girl named Yukina.
Chapter 384 Why are they all so stupid? (5.2K)
After flying for about half an hour, they traveled more than 100 kilometers to a deserted island located on the outskirts of the artificial island.
It is desolate because no houses can be seen from above; it is a completely deserted island, without a single person in sight.
This is their destination.
But the devastation and the numerous craters that greeted the eye inevitably raised doubts.
"Senior, Kanase Kensei really on this island?"
It was Yukina who asked the question.
Looking at the scene before her, even Sayaka Kirasaka frowned slightly.
She couldn't help but wonder, would Princess La Folia really be here?
Or rather, is she really still alive?
Mahiro chuckled and teased:
"Who knows? Maybe they are, maybe they aren't, perhaps they left with the test subject..."
However, I believe the information Zeta provided.
He didn't say the second half of the sentence, nor was it necessary.
He simply started walking slowly on the beach, preparing to take a stroll on this deserted island.
However, this time it wasn't Yukina who caught up first, but Gada.
She walked beside him with her hands behind her back, feigning a girlish demeanor, occasionally telling him interesting things, just like a couple on a picnic.
Yukina, standing still, watched the two strolling by, then turned back to exchange a glance with Sayaka Kirasaka.
They exchanged glances, then followed.
However, although this deserted island is not large compared to other islands in the area, it is not easy to explore every corner of the island on foot at a leisurely pace.
As evening approached, Yukina's stomach began to rumble.
Are you hungry?
"Um."
Yukina blushed and nodded shyly.
That's true. I spent half the night working at the orphanage last night, and after confirming that Kanase Kanon was alright, I quickly went to sleep.
This morning, he didn't even have breakfast before setting off with Mahiro.
Logically speaking, they should have been hungry long ago; the fact that they've lasted this long shows how sustenance the pickled Yukina provide.
Mahiro was well aware of this as well.
Just as he was about to speak, Sayaka Kirasaka took an energy bar out of her skirt pocket and handed it to Yukina.
"Yukina, have this first."
"Sayaka Kirasaka... this must be your emergency rations, right?"
Yukina hesitated when she saw the energy bar being handed to her, but Sayaka Kirasaka forced it into her hand.
"It's okay, I'm on a diet!"
After saying that, he turned his gaze to Yotsuba Mahiro, frowned slightly, and said again:
"Are we just going to wander aimlessly around this deserted island looking for people like this?"
"Otherwise what?"
Mahiro shrugged, then suddenly swung the wooden stick he had picked up earlier, which resembled a longsword, forward.
With a whoosh, the dense foliage in front was split open, as if a new path had been created.
Mahiro walked straight in and said softly:
"That's why I asked you before boarding that you were sure you wanted to come along. After all, finding people on this island is quite troublesome, and we need to be prepared for a long haul."
In fact, finding people on this island wasn't difficult for him; in fact, it was quite simple—a single "Eidos Eye" would suffice.
Having finally managed to get out of the house, he wanted to explore and have some fun.
After all, he still missed this kind of environment, which reminded him of the days when he trained an assassination squad in the forest.
It will also dampen Sayaka Kirasaka's arrogance.
Sayaka Kirasaka was indeed speechless after hearing his words. She silently returned to Yukina's side, quietly comforting her to eat her energy bar, and then secretly glanced at Yotsuba Mahiro's back.
I have no idea what's going on in my head.
According to Yotsuba Mahiro's understanding, he definitely didn't mean anything nice.
The group then wandered through the forest for nearly half an hour. Just as some of them were getting tired, a dark cement wall suddenly appeared on the slope in front of them.
The walls have cracks and are covered in moss, but it is definitely a man-made structure.
It looks like a fortress, and the walls have countless dents and cracks that look like bullet holes, making it seem like a place used to test the power of weapons.
The dimly lit bunker was deserted; the only sound was the chirping of insects.
Seeing this, Mahiro couldn't help but smile and turn around to say:
"Looks like we're pretty lucky; we won't have to sleep outside tonight."
Sayaka Kirasaka saw the bunker and heard his words, she hesitated for a moment.
"Do I really have to sleep here tonight...?"
People who suffer from androphobia usually also have severe obsessive-compulsive disorder about cleanliness.
Even Sayaka Kirasaka, who came from the Lion King Agency, could not avoid it.
However, Mahiro looked up at the sky with an indifferent expression.
Realizing that it would be dark in a few hours, he deliberately said:
"It's getting late, and there's nowhere more suitable to stay right now... Of course, if Miss Sayaka Kirasaka is planning to wander around and try her hand at wilderness survival, I won't stop her."
"Hmph, hmph! Fine, I'll stay! I don't think it's unclean!"
Sayaka Kirasaka forced a proud expression.
This girl's only truly stubborn trait is her mouth.
But it should feel soft to kiss, right?
Mahiro stroked his chin, sizing up Sayaka Kirasaka's back, especially her black stockings with pink lace trim, and started to have all sorts of wild thoughts.
Seeing this, Yukina smiled apologetically at Mahiro, said "Please don't take it to heart," and then followed Sayaka Kirasaka to try and persuade him.
"Alright, let's start preparing dinner."
Mahiro up his sleeves, picked up the scattered stones and branches around him, and skillfully built a makeshift stove.
On his way here, he saw quite a few rabbits and other animals.
It's the perfect destination for a picnic.
"Oh? Senior, are you preparing dinner? I'll help you!"
Yukina, who was tidying up the bunker, ran out when she heard the commotion outside. Seeing Mahiro's actions, she grabbed Schneewaltzer and ran into the woods.
"Wait, Yukina, I'll help too!"
Then, Sayaka Kirasaka jogged out and followed Yukina, disappearing into the woods.
One of them, wielding the Demon-Slaying Bow - Brilliant Scale, and the other, wielding the Demon-Slaying Machine Gun - Schneewaltzer, set their sights on the coconut trees growing near the coast.
On a whim, they used their respective weapons to knock down the coconuts and then collected some dry branches, returning home laden with their spoils.
You could say he's surprisingly capable.
As for Mahiro, he was currently hunting in the forest.
With his skill, he quickly caught six or seven rabbits, plus a wild boar.
"How lucky! I never imagined that something like this could survive on an island like this."
Mahiro squatted on the reef, skillfully dissecting the rabbit and wild boar, cutting the meat into even pieces, and then soaking it in seawater to wash away the blood.
Throughout this process, Gada simply watched quietly.
Then he suddenly spoke up:
"Your technique is very skillful. Have you done something like this before?"
I guess so.
Mahiro's lips curled up slightly, the curve carrying a hint of nostalgia. The first image that appeared in her eyes was a pink-haired woman with twin tails, followed by a blonde with huge breasts, a black-haired woman with a flat chest, and so on.
It was Mine, Cornelia, Akame, and Tsukushi.
So much so that his voice softened a bit.
"I've taught a few students before, instructing them on wilderness survival skills."
"Oh? A student you taught? They must have been very outstanding. I'd like to meet them."
What kind of students need to be taught wilderness survival skills and training?
Is she his disciple?
Gada's interest was piqued.
"They are indeed outstanding, even my pride... As for meeting them, let's talk about it later. Perhaps you'll have your chance."
"Hehe, then I'll have to look forward to it."
Hearing Gada's cheerful laughter, Mahiro didn't respond.
Instead, they wrapped the prepared meat pieces in cleaned wild boar skin and then returned to the bunker.
He casually rubbed a small flame together and lit the piled-up stone stove.
The flames that ignited immediately illuminated the surroundings.
Just then, Yukina and Sayaka Kirasaka returned. They were stunned to see the large chunks of meat and sliced meat placed next to the stone stove.
"Senior, where did this meat come from?" Yukina asked blankly.
