Surviving on a Deserted Island with Yukinoshita Yukino

Chapter 60: Seven Human Lamps

"Amazing! These claws are much better than the iron knife!"

Jun saw the giant bear claw at the ground and immediately dig a large hole.

"Yukino, you're really smart!"

He couldn't resist and immediately hugged the girl in front of him.

"Don't go too far. You've been thinking about inappropriate things so often that your brain isn't working properly."

Yukino said this, and her cheeks blushed a little. Then, she slowly pulled away from Jun's embrace.

"That's your fault too... Yukino is just too charming."

Without wasting time, Jun used the iron knife to cut the sharp claws off the bear.

"So sharp..."

He took all the big claws—they were really sharp and hard.

"Harder than wild boar tusks,"

Yukino said this as she tied the claws onto wooden sticks using plant vines. She made several shovels.

She hoped that with those, it would be easier for Jun to dig into the ground.

The bear claws were very sharp. They could pierce through mud, or soil.

Jun dug a big hole, and then he kept digging deeper.

Finally, with Yukino's help, he finished building a large support structure made of wooden logs at every corner to prevent it from collapsing.

"Is this the magic power you mentioned?"

Yukino felt that Jun was like a very strong excavation machine that never got tired.

It was like magic to him how someone could dig such a big hole so quickly.

"You could say that, but today, there are no side effects."

Jun felt great.

The effect of his Enhancement ability would last for another 30 minutes.

"Yukino, please tell Megumi and the others to bring all the ice chunks into the underground storage. I have to take care of the dead bear."

Meanwhile, Yukino was covering the bottom of the underground room with bark and wooden boards.

If the air circulation was good enough, they could even make this place their new home.

She was surprised by how big the hole was.

Jun and the other girls worked hard from morning until night to process the bear.

Finally, they put the best meat cuts from the bear's body into the ice room.

The parts that looked like they weren't safe to eat and had bits of internal organs floating around were thrown into the river and carried away by the strong current.

"That's enough. Close the door to the ice room. Tomorrow we really need to rest."

Jun noticed that the girls who had worked all day were starting to look very tired.

It was true: there was a smell of blood clinging to their bodies, and their faces were dirty with mud. They looked like a primitive tribe from a remote island.

Yukino was the only one who still had the energy to cook. She was the one with the best stamina.

After handling the bear hide and snake skin, they walked to the river to clean themselves.

That night, Jun asked for grilled bear kidneys and some pieces of delicious bear liver.

The giant bear's four feet, along with other cuts of meat, were stored in the ice room.

"So delicious!"

We found that fresh bear liver and kidneys tasted better than snake meat.

Yui wished she had more than one mouth... or an extra stomach.

They ate until they were very full with just those two types of meat.

Nanako thought she would only get a small serving of food, but she was surprised when she saw that she got the same amount as everyone else.

Was this what Yukino-sensei meant by "equality"?

This was much better than anything she had ever experienced in the Dragonback Tribe.

Nanako was so full that she could only lie on the ground with Yui, waiting for the food to digest.

The girls were quiet and calm, enjoying the peaceful night.

But Jun felt he still wasn't full.

That's right—improving body attributes can also increase appetite.

Under the moonlight, the girls leaned against large trees and wooden buildings while watching Jun eat pieces of meat and Lamp Fruit.

Even though it was night, their bodies still glowed because of the light from the Lamp Fruit. This made the seven of them look like living lamps.

The big tree above them was also decorated with softly glowing fruits.

It's a magical world.

The girls talked about the unfamiliar stars in the sky while laughing at the way Jun ate.

"Even though he eats quickly, he still looks elegant. Jun-kun must be embarrassed because we're all watching,"

Utaha said, smiling at Jun's "classy" expression while he was eating.

"Well, my brother likes to act cool when he doesn't need to..."

Megumi also couldn't stop laughing.

"By the way, Kasumigaoka-senpai, may I see your hand for a moment?"

Suddenly, Yukino remembered the bad cut on Utaha's hand.

Maybe her healing ability could erase the scar.

Utaha was a little surprised, but then she understood Yukino's intention.

She was a little shy, but she put her left hand out and started to take the bandage off.

"Can it... be healed?"

She asked, her voice reflecting caution.

Yukino wanted to heal her, which was surprising.

"I'm not sure. But I'll try."

Yukino looked calm, like usual, but her eyes showed seriousness.

"Thank you... Yukino..."

For the first time, Utaha didn't call her by Yukinoshita. She called her name gently.

A white light began to appear from Yukino's palm.

The light slowly covered Utaha's hand.

The scar on her hand started to peel away.

"So amazing..."

Yui and Ginko, who saw it, were amazed.

Even though they had already seen the wonders of Jun's body a few days ago, Yukino's healing ability still felt incredible every time they saw it.

Yukino's face looked a little pale, but the scar on Utaha's left hand had disappeared.

The skin there now looked as smooth as a newborn baby's.
