Living on an island is something ordinary people easily fantasize about, but when you actually live on an island, it makes you sigh.
Sure enough, not a single word from keyboard warriors can be believed.
They speak with great authority and will look up a lot of information to refute you.
But once they actually have to start wilderness survival, they die faster than anyone and live more miserably than anyone.
It's like once a zombie apocalypse happens, some people think they can survive and live comfortably. But if it really happened?
Don't comment from a God's perspective; you have to experience it yourself to know how difficult it is.
If Irisviel couldn't use Magecraft, if Kaito couldn't use any abilities, and everyone had to survive as ordinary people for ten days,
they might be able to survive, but it would definitely be extremely arduous, not like now, everyone enjoying delicious grilled fish and even light fish soup.
Although still a bit fishy, because the fish was very delicious, it was acceptable to drink.
Looking at this delicious fish soup, Kaito couldn't help but reflect.
'If everyone were ordinary people...'
'Would this fish soup in his hand even exist?'
'Maybe it would. They could find suitable 'rope' in the forest to weave a fishing net, or sharpen wooden sticks into spears, and see if they could catch more fish during low tide.'
After a fairly hearty dinner, Kie, who was good at cooking, proactively cleared the dishes and washed them. The others continued to follow Kaito to cut more wood and bring it back.
Night fell like this. Kaito specially built them a large bathroom attached to a toilet. He also took two buckets of hot water to take a simple shower first.
"Whew…"
Exhaling deeply, after washing up, Kaito simply rinsed his clothes and wore his swim trunks to dry them by the campfire.
The others did the same. Kaito once again saw their elegance in swimsuits.
Perhaps because night had fallen and exploring would be more difficult, they were more willing to sit by the campfire and chat.
As they chatted, some genius started talking about ghost stories, which women love but also fear the most.
Oh right, it was Misuzu who started it. Then Shodai couldn't help but talk about what scared her most as a child. Kie also spoke with lingering fear about the existence of demons in her world.
Gradually, the children huddled together, and Kaito was forced to hold Lala, who clearly didn't look scared at all, but also wanted to join in the hugging.
Well,
Lala was also very cute, and she had always considered herself his future wife.
Looking at Lala in his arms, Kaito couldn't help but think of a poem.
[Height need not be high, 130 is fine. Chest need not be big, having shape is spirit. This is a loli, only I can invade. Western dress cat ears, small mouth big eyes. Short hair is pretty, long hair is elegant. Can give candy, play kisses. No gossip to disturb the ear, no shopping to tire the body. School swimming pool, park small pavilion. I say: Being cute is enough!]
'Wonderful, wonderful.'
'Indeed, the most literary are the silly netizens.'
'Back then, I would have been the first to object to letting those silly netizens retire from the literary world!'
Kaito reached out and pinched Lala's cheek, causing her to pout cutely in complaint. The others suddenly looked at Kaito with expectant eyes.
"Huh? What's wrong?"
"Hehe, everyone has shared what scared them most as children. It's your turn~"
Misuzu was the first to answer Kaito.
"I see."
It was also his fault for thinking about the poem earlier. Plus, he wasn't very interested in this topic, so he ignored it.
But no problem!
What scared him most as a child?
Sorry, he watches horror movies with a smile, and plays horror games with a smile.
What does he have to be afraid of?
He has always believed in science!
What he fears are only his parents, especially when both parents punish him!
It wasn't until he entered middle school and his younger brother grew up that Kaito cleverly shifted the blame to his brother, letting him experience the fun of being punished by both parents.
He was undoubtedly one of China's top ten good brothers.
Speaking of which, his younger brother was entering university this year. It was summer vacation now, with half a month left. He got into the same Fudan University as Kaito.
Thinking about how he had become prosperous and wealthy, he should give something back to his family.
At the same time, bring Baal home. It would be an explanation, fulfilling his parents' wish, and make his brother jealous.
'Sorry~'
'But I'm not an orphan.'
"Speaking of things that scared me as a child..."
Kaito began to recall the past. But he certainly couldn't say he was afraid of his parents, so he thought of a scenario.
"I was still young back then, just starting middle school, living at home alone."
"It was usually normal, but when it was time to sleep at night, for some reason, I would always hear the sound of children playing in the living room. Besides that, there were adult coughs and sounds of scolding."
The atmosphere started to get tense.
Except for Sephie, Irisviel, and a few others, everyone else couldn't help but shrink their bodies. Those holding children held them tighter.
Using a slightly special tone to narrate, obviously everyone had entered the environment Kaito described, immersing themselves in it.
"At first, I thought it was the neighbors upstairs. But when I listened carefully, it wasn't. So I quietly went to the living room and saw that the things that were usually neatly arranged were all messed up."
"Afterwards, nothing happened. At first, I suspected it might be mice or something. After all, I lived on the third floor, so it was normal for mice to climb up."
"Puzzled, I still went to sleep. But the next night, just as I was about to sleep, the sounds came again."
"As the children's playful sounds grew louder, I felt more and more something was wrong. Finally, I gritted my teeth and rushed to the living room. There, I saw a cup suddenly fall from the table to the floor."
Smack—!
The onomatopoeia exploded in everyone's eardrums. Everyone who had immersed themselves couldn't help but tremble. Some even almost screamed.
But sometimes it's like this: the more scared you are, the more you want to listen (watch). So no one stopped Kaito from continuing.
"My teacup shattered like that."
"The door was closed. The windows were closed."
"And I had placed sticky traps and rat poison in all the places where mice might appear..."
"Of course, that's not the point. The point is, when I saw the cup suddenly fall from the table to the floor, I felt it was haunted."
"Helpless, I thought of burning joss paper. Plus, I was quite angry at the child for breaking my newly bought glass cup."
"So I burned three sets of the 'Five Years of High School, Three Years of College Entrance Exams' review books that my relatives bought for me, right there in the living room."
