I’m Stuck on a Remote Island With the Male Leads - Chapter 111

“I picked it up at Jenas’ cabin.”

I lied a little proudly. This much is fine! It was a little heartbreaking that my secret weapon, which I tried to hide until the end, was robbed like this.

Since Jenas, the person we’re most wary of, knows the location of the bunker, it’s no use to hide it.

“What’s this?” Kayden asked, pointing his finger at the bunker-marked place.

“I don’t know exactly. Don’t you think the location of the supplies you saw on the Saintess’ map was around here?”

“I know. I think so.”

Enoch, who was sitting next to us, followed us and looked at the map.

He added, “Firstly, it is clear that the place marked on this map is close to the location on Saintess’ map. How about going here first? Then we may be able to meet the Saintess.”

While listening to Enoch’s words, I suddenly remembered the monster I had just seen. It seemed to be looking for something.

‘Jenas said that monsters like me…….’

If the monsters really think of me as a delicacy and follow me to attack me, I might be exposing others to danger.

Maybe I’m like a ‘bug’ to everyone on this island. All causality is twisted by my presence.

‘But there’s no other solution for now.’

I sighed.

Yes. It would be better to go together until something else comes up.

‘Is it true that the ‘escape door’ will open after a year?’

If so, then we definitely need the key that the Saintess has.

For some reason, I had the idea that the door might be in Jenas’ cabin. This is because the suspicious ‘door’ I saw in the basement of Jenas’ cabin kept haunting me.

But I couldn’t say that to Enoch and Kayden. If that happens, shouldn’t I inevitably say that I am a ‘transmigrator’ and that this place is in the novel I was reading?

‘Besides, how can I say that they and Yuanna were meant to be like that!’

While I was immersed in such thoughts, I felt a stare piercing my face, so I raised my head. Enoch and Kayden were staring at my face.

“What?”

Enoch crossed his arms and didn’t answer, while Kayden looked at me with an amused look.

“You really have various facial expressions.”

“Do I?”

I rubbed my cheek and tilted my head. Maybe because I was thinking about all sorts of things a while ago, it seems I made a weird face without even realizing it.

“Margaret, will you meet me even if you escape?”

Kayden suddenly asked a random question. I wrinkled my nose, not getting the gist of the question.

“You have to escape first to know that, right?”

“Ah, I want to escape from this island quickly.”

Kayden sighed and leaned his head against my shoulder. Enoch, who I thought would be angry, left him alone.

Perhaps noticing that I was looking at him with a puzzled face, Enoch sighed and replied.

“We’d better stay quiet up here. I think we should spend the night here as well.”

At Enoch’s words, I looked around the big tree. It’s a hard and thick tree that would not shake even if three adults, a man, and a woman, sat on it, but I was still anxious.

As I continued fidgeting, Kayden, who was lying on the side of a tree trunk, got up and asked me.

“Do you want a hug? You’re nervous, right?”

Enoch patted between his legs and said, “Come over here and lean on me. Just like yesterday.”

Kayden alternately looked at Enoch and me with a confused face. He winced as he realized the meaning of his words.

“Oh, damn it. If that’s the case, Margaret, sleep with me tonight.”

“Hey. Isn’t that a very strange line?”

“Sleep with me.”

Kayden put his arm around my waist and rubbed his cheek against my shoulder, purring like a cat. Of course, it wasn’t long before he was stopped by Enoch.

Kayden stared at Enoch’s wrist gripping him, and the two engaged in a silent war of nerves with me between them.

I let out a tired sigh.

“Shall I go down?”

“I’m sorry, Margaret.”

“Sorry. I made you uncomfortable.”

Seeing the two quickly apologize and move away without hesitation, I sighed even more deeply. Isn’t it easy to become monster food if we keep behaving like this?

In order for everyone to survive, you can’t date!

I made that promise once again.

***

Enoch made room for me, and I fell asleep with my back against a tree.

Enoch and Kayden slept with their legs tied to a tree branch in different positions, leaning only on their upper bodies.

I woke up feeling the sun rising.

I couldn’t sleep in a tree avoiding monsters like this forever.

‘I think it would be better to find the mother of the monsters and wipe it out.’

Wouldn’t that make Jenas no longer be able to watch us with the monster’s eyes?

Eunji, who had been sleeping curled up on my lap, opened his eyes and raised his head, still sleepy. I stroked Eunji’s head and looked around calmly.

Enoch and Kayden seem to be sound asleep even in uncomfortable positions, probably because they couldn’t sleep last night.

I took out someone’s diary from my crossbody bag. And again, I carefully flipped through the diary.

I didn’t read much of it then for fear that Jenas would be back in the cabin soon. As expected, there are more records that I haven’t had the chance to read.

However, I held my breath in shock when I came across this sentence,

–Anata, thank you.–

Anata? Isn’t she Jenas’ older sister? I thought Jenas’ sister might have written this diary, but I don’t think so.

Is Yuanna the owner of this diary—just as my feelings tell me—even though there is no evidence?

‘But it’s really ridiculous to say it is Yuanna’s. The events in the diary seem to have happened in the past, but Yuanna woke up on the island around the same time as us.’

Suddenly, I thought that the ‘place she told me about’ mentioned by the owner of the diary might be a bunker, and the ‘she’ mentioned here might be Anata.

Then, with a rustling sound, I saw Enoch get up.

“Are you awake?”

I closed the diary and smiled at him. While rubbing his tired face, he looked at me blankly. Then he got up and smiled.

“Margaret.”

“Yes?”

“I just want to call your name.”

“Yes……?”

“Because you’re smiling prettily in the morning.”

He rubbed his face again and spoke calmly, and patted his back neck as if it was stiff. It was such a straightforward line that I was speechless for a moment.

“Mmm.”

Coincidentally, Kayden also yawned and woke up.

“Oh, it’s really uncomfortable.”

Enoch had a nonchalant face, but Kayden complained that the bed was too uncomfortable. However, I strongly agree that the bed is bad.

“Oh, by the way, I picked this up at Jenas’ cabin, would you like to read it? It doesn’t help much though.”

I handed the diary to Enoch. What is he thinking?

It was clear that he saw this the last time he took medicine out of my bag.

And yet he didn’t say anything. Did he wait for me to talk about it myself?

“Who wrote it? Who is the ‘she’ mentioned here? Could she be the one Jenas was with? Key? Is this the same key that the Saintess has?”

As Enoch remained silent, Kayden, who was taking the note first and looking at it, asked me.

I explained my guess calmly, “I don’t know who the owner of this diary was, but I think the ‘she’ mentioned here is probably Anata. And the ‘place she told me about’ here seems like the place marked on the map.”

I rested my chin and sighed. After taking the diary from Kayden and reading it, Enoch just said, “We should go find the marked place on the map.”

Kayden sighed at Enoch’s words. “It’s really full of questions. Then let’s go now. We need to find out what the secret of the island is and how to escape.”

I nodded. “Then let’s go.”

So we moved again in search of the marked place on the map, that is the bunker.

As I opened the map while walking, I found Kayden empty-handed and asked, “Kayden, by the way, where is your bag? I think the remaining bombs were in there.”

“Ah, perhaps Ddakkari picked it up? I threw it because I couldn’t swim with a bag on.”

Hearing Kayden’s calm words, I thought about the weight of the bag. Isn’t that too heavy for Ruzef to carry?

“Where are you going to meet the Archbishop?”

“Hm? We didn’t plan to meet.”

I was at a loss for words hearing Kayden’s answer.

It must be difficult for Ruzef to survive alone. I don’t know about anyone else, but shouldn’t I take care of our Ruzef? I’m a little worried about him.
