「Uoh~~ Let’s search~~! – So, what am I supposed to look for?」 As soon as we left the base.
Shoubu, full of enthusiasm, tilted her head.
「Deepo has already compiled the information, so I’ll hand it out.」
I handed the prepared documents to Shoubu, Roa, and Mu, who were waiting.
This was a printed version of the information that Deepo had written down on paper.
The printer I brought back from the bonus area came in handy again.
「Huh? This was written by the secretary? The drawing is really good, isn’t it?」 「It’s really good.」
For example, there’s a large illustration of a marigold flower with the caption, “Marigolds contain yellow, orange, and red pigments.”
It was drawn beautifully with nothing but ink.
“Your drawings are very good. …It might be nice to hang one of Deep Priest’s drawings on the wall.”
“…Don’t you think the Four Staves would be embarrassed by that?”
Dream World said with a subtle expression to Roa, who was speaking seriously.
Indeed, it might be fine to hang up paintings at home.
When I was in Japan, I would put up posters and hang up photos, but here on this desert island, I can’t do any such decorations.
In this situation, if it’s a painting, it’s possible to display something that someone else has drawn. Of course, that depends on the depth.
“We’ll talk about that later, but for now, let’s look for what we’re after.”
“That’s right! We have to find something that’s the same as the picture of the good inch.”
Even the areas we’ve already explored, we don’t know exactly what’s in them.
I’ve tried putting things in my ‘Inventory’ and then figuring out what they are, but the island is too big to do that every time.
So, I head toward an area where I know there’s no water source, but I haven’t collected everything that’s nearby.
When I arrive, I spread out a bit, but I keep in touch with the others so we don’t get too far apart, and we explore.
“Hey! I found it! It’s yellow!”
I heard Shoubu’s voice and went over to her. She was holding a yellow fruit in both hands. “Oh, a lemon.”
“As expected of you, Miss Junme.”
「See? It’s in the good cop’s files too, so we got the yellow, right?」 「Yeah, that’s right.」
「Yay! And since it’s lemon, we can use it for other things too, right?」
Lemons can be used in various dishes. 「Well, maybe Shion will be happy.」
Dream World seemed to have the same idea.
So we spent some time harvesting lemons.
As expected, Roa’s hands were unusually fast.
While we picked one, she threw five into the basket we handed her. 「Having Roa around is like having a hundred helpers.」
「Thank you. But to be precise, it’s more like three to five helpers.」
「Haha, yeah. It really does help that much.」
We collected two baskets’ worth between the four of us, added the lemon information to the map, and then started moving again. 「…Hey, Kouya. What’s that?」
After walking for a while, it seemed Dream World had noticed something.
She pointed in a direction where plants were growing… but there was a reddish color among the green. 「Let’s go check it out.」
We all got closer and found that the red object was actually a small fruit. “Wow, what an odd shape!”
The woman who had leaned in to take a closer look stepped back in surprise.
The red fruit had green lines that looked like veins protruding from it, and something that looked like needles or antennae were stretching out from the tip.
”…It was mentioned in the data. It looks like a Gardenia fruit.”
“Oh, really? So, it can make yellow and blue, and then green from those? That’s amazing! Senri, you did great!” “Yeah, yeah.”
It seemed that making blue would take a bit of effort, but it was written that with my ‘Crafting Ability,’ it wouldn’t be a problem.
So, we all gathered this one too.
“Hey, aren’t we doing pretty well?”
“Yeah, we’ve already got a few things that could be useful, and we’ve probably got most of the colors we need.”
“You mentioned that you have Red Flowers, so you can make red, right?” Roa’s words made me nod.
“If we need anything else… white, maybe?” Muku muttered. “I want purple too!”
“Hmm… I think we can get purple from the blueberries we already have… but we can’t get white right now.”
「…Yeah, it’s not in the data either.」
Some things might be able to be generated with the ‘Crafting Ability.’
I’ll talk to Deep Method about it.
「Should we head back after a bit more exploring?」
「Kouya, are you worried about the other team?」 Zoubu asks with a grin. 「…Yeah.」
「She’s with them, after all…」 「…Yeah.」
Chiyu, Shiono, and Shouko are all on their own right now.
And I haven’t told Deep Method yet, but she’s on her own too.
「Do you have any plans to make someone from this team your girlfriend?」
Zoubu asks with a mischievous smile.
Dream World sighs, but Roa doesn’t seem completely uninterested.
「That kind of thing is important for both parties, right?」
「That’s true. But Koji has already gotten three girlfriends in less than ten days, right? Can you really say it won’t increase any further?」
「…If you find something, let me know.」
Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, I decided to escape from the spot. 「Haha, okay~」
Shoubu didn’t press the matter and returned to searching. 「…Master.」
Soon enough, it seemed that Loa had found something.
Perhaps because they were the ones who used the cosmetics, the women’s concentration was different.
During the afternoon exploration, I had only been useful for collecting materials and storing them in the ‘Inventory’.
While thinking about this, I went towards where Loa’s voice came from. 「Meow」 「Hmm?」
Someone suddenly made a cat sound… or so it seemed.
「Master, I found a cat…」
When I joined Loa, she was holding a white-furred cat in her arms. 「…It’s a cat.」
It was a cute cat. I had never kept a cat, but I had received daily comfort from the videos of other people’s cats on the internet. But something was strange.
The only creatures placed on this island are suitable for meat and.
Arvanc, the monster, alone. There shouldn’t be any cats.
Then, who is this cat?
