Chapter 32: The Roar of the Remote Island


“...” Vivian blinked her eyes, it took a while before she understood Dewey's words. He screamed. “Ah! N-no can! You can't eat my Juju! In-he is Teacher's pet. If she's eaten, a-a-I.”.


“Fuck,” Dewey. “We've been starving for a day. If we're hungry for longer, we don't have energy tomorrow. Still don't know can tomorrow get fish.”


“Ti-ti-ti-no can.. don't eat Juju-ku!” Vivian hugged the cage firmly so Dewey wouldn't snatch it. “Do not eat Juju-ku.”


“Huh! Eat your dragon then,” Dewey said. “He is so big, his flesh is cut a little, will not die, right?”


“Ma-eating dragon?”


Vivian felt herself almost fainted.


He had just felt that this little noble was quite good. In an instant, Dewey turned into a demon again.


Eating dragons? Almighty God, forgive poor little Vivian. All my life, I've never heard of anyone daring to mean evil to a dragon, making it food anyway!


“Ja-don't eat my Hot Sun! W-don't eat my Juju! Huaa... Father, Mother...” Seeing the evil Dewey, Vivian used a tear weapon again.


Dewey was helpless and could only shake his head at the stupid girl crying. “It can't, it can't. Huh, okay. You won tonight. I'll try to catch a fish tomorrow. If we fail to do so, we must not starve to death. If lives are lost, nothing needs to be discussed! If there is no other idea, we can only kill this Illusory Demon!”


It was not just Vivian who was crying. Fatty little Illusionary Demon who is in the cage – seems like a high level monster understands human language – trembles after hearing Dewey's words. His two big eyes looked at Dewey, he curled his body.


Vivian felt a little relieved after hearing Dewey's words, but she immediately prayed inwardly.


Almighty God, bless poor little Vivian, let this devil get some fish tomorrow. Oh, no, no, not the voracious little Vivian, but to defend Juju's life. Uh, little Vivian can if not eat fish. Uh, or one tail only. Please, Lord Almighty. Wuwuwwu…. B-but, I'm also very hungry. Vivian also wants to eat fish….


The next morning, the bonfire had been extinguished sometime, there was still smoke on the wood. Dewey's feeling a little cold. He moved but felt something in his arms.


As soon as she looked down, it turned out that Vivian had entered into her arms. The little witch was sleeping soundly, it seemed like she was feeling cold as well. His body curled up, both hands going into Dewey's pocket in search of warmth.


He felt cold in the middle of his sleep so that he entered Dewey's arms with instinct.


Dewey sighed, he did not immediately wake this girl, but undressed her then enveloped Vivian, before letting go and standing up.


As soon as he looked up and stood up, Dewey's expression changed.


“No! Damnit damnit! No!” Dewey's angry and frustrated cries rang out on the remote island.


A thick fog filled the sea in front of him. This thick fog was like gauze covering the heaven and earth. The air is full of moist water vapor. Under this kind of fog, he could see nothing in the sea.


Under this bad weather, the distance that could be seen in the sea was probably less than ten meters.


How can Dewey not be anxious?


He was trapped on this remote island, without food, and a little drinking water, urgently needing to get out of here as soon as possible. So Dewey's only hope is that another ship will pass through the island and rescue them.


Therefore, Dewey planned to create a bonfire non-stop since this morning. Using fire and smoke to attract the attention of ships that – if indeed – pass around here.


But seeing this thick fog, Dewey felt desperate.


Visibility was low due to this thick fog. Even if Dewey makes a bonfire and a ship passes by, the smoke is nowhere to be seen!


Based on the general knowledge that Dewey knows – which makes him desperate – foggy weather like this tends to last quite a long time.


If the weather is foggy on land, it may disperse within a day. But at sea, three to five days did not disperse.


Three to five days.


Dewey breathed in his heart. Do I still have three to five days? Until now, there was little food.


Vivian awakens to the cry of Dewey. Seeing Dewey's gloomy look, poor little Vivian felt uneasy.


Without speaking, Dewey quickly picked up the wooden branches around, then lit a fire. He made as much fire as possible.


Then Dewey looked for many tree branches and placed them in front of Vivian.


“Hey, keep the fire here. If the fire is low, add wood immediately. Don't let the fire shrink, let alone extinguish, you know? At the same time, you should pay attention to the sea. If you see a ship, think of a way to get their attention. You can make a bigger fire, or use magic to fire a fireball, okay?”


“Pa-share.” Vivian nodded, then she asked, “Ka-fog is so thick, can we see the ship? Bi-can the ship see us?”


Dewey sighed, he did not answer Vivian's question. “Do it according to my words. This is the only thing we can do.”


Finished speaking, Dewey picked out a stick and weighed it before walking along the length.


“Ka-you want to go where?”


“I'll find food.” Dewey said coldly. “I thought maybe I could find some mushrooms and wild fruit. In a forest this big, who knows. I hope I can find him. It's easier than catching fish. If I don't find it, then it can only catch fish in the sea.”


Dewey was silent for a moment. “You better pray I can find it, if not as hard as you cry tonight, we can only eat your Juju. Human life is more important than the life of an animal.”


Seeing Dewey's cold gaze before leaving, Vivian trembled.


Dewey's been gone all morning.


Vivian was afraid of being left alone on the beach. There was no one around, he felt he had no backrest.


In the past, despite living at home with Master, Master also often left Vivian alone at home if she left. Vivian had magic at the time.


But now, he has nothing.


Adding on the new fire throughout the morning, Vivian's hand was scratched by a sharp tree branch. His face was blackened by smoke. He tried to raise the fire according to Dewey's orders.


Dewey finally came home during the day.


From afar, Dewey came home with a limp leg. His legs were injured, but his expression looked joyful.


One Dewey hand held a wooden stick, the other hand held a branch of a bush hanging many small fruits.


The fruits were so cute, the color was so fresh, the size of a wine. It must be delicious!


Vivian drools right away.


Before this, the magical girl had never starved for so long.


“Ma-ma-ma-food! You-you found it!” Vivian exclaimed, then ran towards Dewey with bare feet.


The corner of Dewey's lips curved at Vivian's behavior, but she immediately hid it, leveling her face. “Don't be happy too early. I've only found this way since morning.”


The way she walked was a bit strange, Vivian just realized that Dewey's leg was injured everywhere. It must be because it scratched a sharp object when walking in the forest.


“Already, eat first.”


Dewey laid down his crops, then pointed to the rhizomes of a bundle of plants hanging in the vine wrap. “I can recognize these plants. I have research on pharmacy. Some of these plants are wild plants. Their rhizomes have many functions, they are edible. Besides, not small either.”


As he said, Dewey brought all of it to wash on the beach, then gave it to Vivian. “This is all yours. You can directly eat, can also burn before eating.”


Vivian stunned. He looked at the rhizome in his hand and suddenly felt sad. Pouting, he looked at the twig of a bush filled with bright fruits. “A-I want to eat fruit, a-a-I.


“No, you eat this, I eat those fruits.” Dewey's tone sounded calm, but it was indisputable.


Vivian almost cried.


He's very sad. This kid must have been intentional. He deliberately mistreated poor little Vivian! Yeah, I would! Vivian doesn't let him eat Juju, so she takes revenge on him.


Vivian is sad. He could only squat beside the pile of flames with pity, roast the rhizomes, then put them in his mouth and chew.


The rhizomes that Dewey chose were huge, neither did they taste bad, or rather had no taste. Just a little hard and hard to chew. Poor Vivian felt her cheeks tired when she had just eaten two sticks. More importantly, the food was not good at all. No taste, too tasteless.


Dewey sat across from Vivian. He put the fruit in his mouth without making a sound, then chewed it before swallowing.


Slowly, Vivian's gaze was drawn to it.


He swallowed saliva. That fruit must be delicious. You stingy kid.


“What are you looking at me for?” Dewey grunting. “Do you blame me for not giving you fruit? Letting you eat bad rhizomes?”


Vivian was silent but pouted.


While Dewey was not paying attention, Vivian suddenly reached out to pick up a fruit from the branch of the bush. Her magic robe was so big and wide, her movements were closed that Dewey did not notice it.


Then when Dewey looked the other way, Vivian quickly put the fruit in her mouth, then bit her.


Just as he was waiting for the fragrant and sweet aroma….


Vivian's expression suddenly turned strange, then she spewed out quickly.


What the fuck! So sour that people's tongues twitch! Vivian only bit once and felt almost vomited.


Can this kind of fruit be eaten?


Looking at Vivian's expression, Dewey only smiled faintly, then bit the last fruit. He ate slowly, then stood up. “Quick eating. After eating, we still have to work.”


At this moment, Vivian looked at the branch of the bush on the ground, then looked at her remaining two rhizomes. Compared to that sour fruit, these fresh rhizomes are more palatable.


Remembering the phrase ‘you ate this, the fruits were mine’ Dewey, then remembering how Dewey ate those creepy fruits without speaking and without changing his expression. Vivian was suddenly speechless.


He squeezed the rhizome in his hand then looked at Dewey.


“See what? Fast eat, we still have work!” Dewey furrowed his brows.


“Ya, yes!” Vivian turned around and took the rhizome, then jumped to Dewey's side. His gaze and voice softened, even sounding guilty. “A-what are we going to do? I-I'll listen to you.”


“We will catch fish, otherwise it can only eat grass and it is not durable.” Dewey smiled then said, “That branch of this bush is on me, then pull the other end. I'm going to find fish in the water with branches, then think of a way to catch some fish. But...”


Before he finished speaking, suddenly a loud roar sounded.


Then the ground under their feet suddenly shook. Dewey and Vivian lose their stability and fall.


The roar was like that of hell, extremely pitiful but heart-shaking. Dewey had heard the roar of a dragon before. He thought the roar of a dragon was the most terrifying roar in this world.


But now, this voice was much more terrifying and louder than the roar of a dragon.


The ground did not stop shaking, Dewey felt like he was going through a threatening earthquake.


In the midst of this shock, the sea rumbled and waves appeared.


“What a sound is this!” Dewey's expression turned wild. She hugged Vivian in her arms.


Vivian's face was pale.


At this moment, the pet dragon Vivian was awakened by the roar.


The sleeping dragon had woken up, but….


Vivian and Dewey clearly heard the sad roar of the dragon.


There could be fear in the voice of the dragon.
