Hvisland: A VR Colony Sim Game

Chapter 24 - 24 – Jealousy



Kat helped Seb thinly slice the boar for making jerky. The girl only had a cooking stat of 12, and she seemed to be struggling, but it was higher than the other colonists. I want all of this to be over quickly so the pork doesn't go rancid. Seb's cooking stats weren't very high either, so he couldn't do this quickly alone. He still needs help.

"Ah, we better get some rest, Kat." Seb plunged his knife into one of the largest chunks of meat.

Looks like this guy's procrastination trait kicked in.

Seb shifted slightly to examine the bits of meat stabbed with twigs and stuck around the campfire. "Looks like it's already cooked."

"Yay!" Leva cheered with joy, then took one of the food and immediately took a bite. The woman made a movement like a mumble because of the meat that burned her mouth. "Hot!!! But it's better than ever, Seb. Your cooking skills have definitely improved."

"I agree." Manu added.

Seb blew on the piece of meat for a moment, then ate it. After that, he sneered slightly. "Well…. If only there was some seasoning, or at least a little salt. It could taste so much better."

I slightly chipped Seb's part and ate it. Totally agree. The taste is still a bit bland, even though it's tender and juicy.

"Well, we can find a salt cave. If we find that, we'll be rich. Everyone loves salty food, and it will make our food last longer. Tanning the skin will also become easier with it." Manu explains while chewing. "Unfortunately, the cave is very rare and there is something dangerous in it."

Kat approached the fire, crouching down to cover her sensitive spots. The attention of the men immediately fell on the girl, to the point they did not continue their conversation.

Kat's face was still bright red, a sign that the girl was still ashamed of her nakedness. Sorry, Kat. I could have asked one of the colonists to give you their clothes, but then again, I can't stand the sight of the sausage hanging. Seeing Seb's just once was enough for me.

"Hey, Kat! Just relax! Look at me who doesn't care that I'm naked anymore!" Leva burst out laughing with her legs crossed.

She doesn't look graceful at all.

Of course, Kat didn't respond and just kept eating.

Why don't I ask Manu to make clothes from the leaves that are the base for the shelter? Well, I don't think leaves are good material for clothes. Look at Leva now. Her breast cover is missing somewhere.

"Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you about this." Manu smiles. "I made a game to cheer us up a bit."

"What? Game? What game, Manu?" Seb asked in an excited tone.

Manu shrugged. "It's still a secret. I want to make a surprise. But well, don't expect much. It's just a simple game."

"Ugh." Leva snorted. "I can already guess what game it is."

"Why do you speak like that?" Manu chuckled. "You sucks playing that?"

"None of your business!"

"Errrr…. Can I speak to one of you?" Pif called. I could see the change in expression on the prisoner's face. Is he like …. Feeling jealous of my colony?

"A moment." Seb took a skewer of meat and brought it to the prisoner. "Are you hungry?"

"Not that …." Pif gulped, then grimaced. "To be honest, I admire you guys."

"Admire us?" Seb raised an eyebrow.

Pif was silent for a moment, staring at the dancing bonfire. "In my tribe, strength is everything. Without fighting ability, you are considered inferior, even though you have other abilities. You will continue to be insulted and bullied. But, here…. I see you don't fight at all, Seb. However, others feel there is no problem at all."

"Hey, he's the one who cooks and treats our wounds." Leva chimed in with her mouth full. "There's no way we can ignore him, right?"

Well said, Leva.

The skinny young man took a deep breath. "Because I don't want to be always looked down upon, I learned to fight, despite my weak body. Even so, I continued to be considered inadequate in their eyes. That's why, I was sent on a raid mission here. They said it was a way to show my worthiness."

Seb flashed a big smile. "Hey, what exactly are you good at, Pif?"

"I can treat wounds and illnesses, although I can't say I'm an expert. Well, at first I thought practicing medicine would change their view of me. However, the reality is different."

"Well, we need someone like you." Seb tapped the boy on the shoulder. "I really suck at treating someone."

"I'm sure, Kat's treatment on your dick is also not optimal!" Leva laughed loudly again. "If any of us has a genital wound like yours, we need someone like you!"

Manu, Seb, and even Pif laughed along, but Kat kept eating, even though she was the one being teased.

"So do you want to join us, Pif?" Seb widened his smile. "We really need you."

Pif closed his eyes and nodded. "I want to. After all, I will only be bullied if I return to my tribe. I just hope they don't come looking for me."

"They won't be looking for you." Leva stood up and crossed her arms over her chest. "You…" She cleared her throat. "Sorry if I put it this way, but from your tribe's description, they won't care about people like you. So they won't be looking for you."

Ouch.

Pif shrugged. "Ah, that would actually benefit me."

[New Colonists Obtained]

Welcome to my colony, Pif.

Seb untied Pif, then put his arm around the young man and led him to the fire.

"Forgive me for killing your comrade, Pif." Leva said while sticking out her hand. "At that time, the situation was very chaotic. The choice is kill or be killed."

"Ah, actually I'm not that close to him…. He's also the one who bullied me a lot. They purposely paired me with him." With a stiff motion, Pif shook the woman's hand. "I'm also sorry for shooting you."

Leva shrugged. "It's just a small wound."

I whispered something into Pif's ear. This is to add a good impression of my colony to him.

"Ah, if you want, you can use some of my clothes to make other clothes." Pif said in an awkward tone.

Finally, Kat responded. However, even then, the girl just stared at Pif, of course still expressionless.

"Yeah, yeah, I don't need clothes, after all. I'm used to being naked." Despite saying that, Leva didn't sound serious. "You're the one wearing that outfit, Kat."

Manu got up and walked over to Pif, then slightly smelled the boy's clothes. The bearded man's face immediately cringed.. "Hell, we have to wash it first."
