BXBX NOVEL Chapter 14 - 14 – New Morning
The sun had just risen. Leva fell asleep, still standing and tied to the tree.
"Since last night, I smell urine! Turns out it came from here!" Reha\'s scream echoed. "You want to be like one of those animals, huh!? The kind that attracts the opposite sex with the smell of their urine!?"
Leva gasped and lifted her face. The naked woman saw Reha and Tosa approaching. The two men were accompanied by Seb, who was no longer wearing light blue pants, but a skirt made of leather, like a caveman.
"Good morning, beautiful." Tosa smiled at the woman whose body was still full of bruises and marks from the whip. "We\'ll be out of here in a moment. I thought we\'d better say hello to you one last time."
The veins in Leva\'s neck began to bulge. He spat at the man, but Tosa dodged easily and laughed.
Reha raised his hand, about to slap the woman. Leva had closed her eyes and turned her face to the side. However, Reha just chuckled and poked the sensitive part in the woman\'s crotch. Leva flinched, glared at the bald man, and tried to kick him, but Reha was also able to dodge.
Ugh. Hurry up! You two get out of here!
"Hey, how many times have I told you, she\'s not ours anymore." Tosa chuckled and waved his hand. "See you later, rebel girl."
"Hope you enjoy your new job as a slut here." Reha laughed.
Tosa said goodbye to Seb and finally left the place with Reha.
"They\'re gone. Now, let me go." Leva asked with a wild breath.
Seb shook his head slowly. "Too bad, I can\'t do it now. I had to wait until they were out of sight. I really don\'t want you to kill them."
"Huh, you\'re an angel with a noble heart who forgives those bastards, huh!?"
I hastily whispered my excuse to Seb. Maybe this is different from Seb\'s real reason as a peace-loving person. I was worried that Leva might not like Seb because of his naivety. I did my best to keep the colonists from hating each other. It can cause conflict.
"It is not like that …." Seb scratched his hair. "You\'re already part of our group, if your old tribe finds out they were both killed by you, chaos could ensue. They can take revenge on us. We\'re still so small, we don\'t have the ability to fight back."
"Argggghhhh!!! I will do it without them knowing!!!" Leva started screaming hysterically. "Let go of me now!!! I\'ve been waiting all night in the cold!!!"
The commotion caught the attention of Manu, who was unraveling the net sack that had been the container of potatoes bought from Tosa last night. Meanwhile, Kat, who was practicing with her bow, only glanced at the scene briefly.
"Alright, just let her be." I whispered in Seb\'s ear. "Today you are going to plant those potato seeds, right?"
Seb grimaced. "Sorry, I really can\'t let you go now."
Leva continued to struggle to break free while screaming. She was getting more hysterical when Seb left her. "Hey, where are you going!!?? Let me go first, you bastard!!! I have to kill those two assholes!!!"
***
Using the strings untied from the net sack, Manu tied the grass on the back ends of the arrows he had just made. He then looked at Leva, who was now looking down in silence.
"Finally she stopped fussing, huh?" Manu sneered. "In my tribe there is also someone like her, but a child. Is she a child trapped in an adult\'s body."
Seb stopped digging small holes, stood up clutching his waist, then wiped his sweat. "Well, I\'ve never seen an adult tantrum like that either. Hopefully, things like this don\'t happen often. It\'s impossible, right, if we have to tie her up again when she screams like that."
"Hopefully so." Manu makes a knot on the last arrow.
"Give these arrows to Kat and then you make a quiver for her." I gave orders to Manu.
Manu got up and walked with the arrows. "Here, Kat."
Kat stopped her practice and turned to the bearded man.
I whispered in the girl\'s ear. "Say thanks, then you carve a target on a tree and use it for practice."
"Thank you, Man." Kat said in a very stiff tone.
"Huh? This is unusual." Manu raised an eyebrow and placed the arrows near Kat\'s feet. "You\'d better not hunt yet, I\'ll make a quiver out of tree bark so you don\'t have trouble carrying these arrows."
"Argh!" Seb threw the small part of the escape pod out of his hand, then lay on the ground.
Hey, you\'ve only been working for a while, Seb! You don\'t have many holes yet.
[Hidden trait unlocked]
[Procrastinator – Seb likes to procrastinate in doing his job. This trait will be randomly triggered.]
What? Why do you have such useless traits, Seb? Wouldn\'t this hinder the development of my colony?
"Hey, why are you sleeping like that?" Manu, who was carrying his ax, asked. "Those seeds won\'t grow on their own, you know."
Seb sighed. "Just a moment. Let me rest first. Using this thing to dig was very troublesome. Don\'t worry, things like this won\'t have much effect on the harvest."
I spoke into the blond man\'s ear. "Hey, get up your ass and get on with your work!"
As expected, Seb stayed where he was. My orders won\'t be able to counter that trait.
"Hey, are they out of sight yet!?" Leva snapped again. "How long are you going to tie me up like this."
Instead of immediately getting up and untying Leva, Seb just straightened himself and looked around.
Ugh. Do I have to order you to release Leva? Seriously?
Finally, after I spoke into his ear again, Seb began to untie Leva.
Not wanting Leva to be completely naked still, I gave Seb an idea. However, the guy said, "I still have a bunny skin you can use to cover your body, Leva. But it takes several days to process the leather before you can use it. And I have other plans for that thing. I want to use it as a bag to store food if one of us goes a bit far."
"You don\'t have to give it to me if it\'s needed for someone else! That skin is also very small, right!? It can\'t be called clothes!" Leva stared at Seb as the knots in her body finally loosened. The woman had opened her mouth and was looking fiercely at Seb. However, Instead of snapping, the woman bit her lip, closed her eyes tightly, and started walking away.
Do you want to be a better human, huh, Leva?
"You can sleep in the shelter." Seb said. "You must be tired from standing all night."
"I don\'t need that. I\'ve had enough sleep." Leva quickened her pace, not bothering to cover her private parts and breasts at all.
Seb started following the naked woman. "Then where are you going?"
"I want to clean myself in the river and take a shit." Leva growled, seemingly trying to keep herself from yelling. "You still want to follow me? Are you excited to see a pooping woman?"
Seb stopped walking without saying anything.
