54 – Honey(4)

candy fruit.

Monia doesn’t like it that much, but Chester still eats fruit as a snack whenever he sees him wandering around the island.

Currently, in the corner of the warehouse, Monia’s salted candy was being pickled well.

Next, the scarlet berries.

It is the fruit of a tree widely distributed on the Wandering Islands, which Chester finds second most often after the Candy Fruit.

It is very hard and bitter before ripening, but when ripe, it is very soft and has a subtle sweetness.

Of course, Monia hates it.

However, it is a fruit that a variety of creatures, such as rodents and birds on a wandering island, live on as a staple food.

The next thing I took out was a blue strawberry.

Its name is a strawberry, but it is a blue fruit in the shape of a raspberry, which Chester accidentally discovered in large quantities and consumed to make strawberry paste.

I recently discovered it again by accident, but unfortunately it was small, so I picked it up a little and left it to grow.

It was near the territory of the ant-wolf, so approaching it was like that.

Chester took the three main fruits of the wandering island from the warehouse basket and placed them in a large bowl.

This bowl was made by Chester from baking clay.

It’s a bowl that I finally made after a lot of trial and error, so it’s a treasured item.

After adding all the fruits, I picked up some spices and put them in, then took out the last ingredients.

“Oohhhhh.”

Monia, freed from the ugliness of being possessed by honey, applauded in admiration when she saw the ingredients Chester brought out.

clap clap clap

Chester laughed at Monia and squeezed the ingredients he took out with his hands.

Then, a golden wave overflowed from Chester’s hand and spilled into the bowl.

“Wow.”

Monia made an ecstatic face as if she was in love at the waterfall of honey flowing down beautifully.

Chester scraped some honey from his hand and put it in a bowl, washed his hands, and went back to mix the contents of the bowl.

As the sticky honey is mixed evenly, each fruit is coated so that the gloss flows.

“Okay, that’s it.”

Honey Fruit Salad.

It was this morning.

“let’s eat.”

“Wow!”

Chester and Monia took bamboo spoons and ate the honey-drenched, glistening fruits.

Even though there were a lot of fruits that Monia usually disliked, Monia ate them excitedly as if asking what to know about them.

“Ugh! Whoa! Whoops!!”

I liked it too much.

“If you go crazy again, I won’t give you honey.”

“Oh no!”

Embarrassed by Chester’s words, Monia came up to Chester’s side and clung to his arm, pleading.

“I will never do that again! Yeah? Yeah? yes?”

“Ah Okay. Got it. Eat it.”

Chester held out the spoon he had scooped out to Monia.

Monia saw the fruits on Chester’s spoon and immediately put the spoon in her mouth.

“Ha ha! I really like it!”

“yes? Are you that good?”

“Yes!”

Monia answered lively, but after chewing and swallowing the fruit, she suddenly became depressed.

“Ah, even this delicious honey will disappear if you eat it… … ? You have to save it.”

“Oh my gosh.”

Chester was genuinely surprised.

‘I can’t believe the word ‘Eating sparingly’ came out of Monia’s mouth.’

no, do you love it?

Could it be that the concept of cherishing was in Monia’s head?

‘Oh My God.’

Chester tasted the shock of all the common sense he had known until now.

‘Then why haven’t you saved it until now, bitch?’

What is that crazy act of trying to eat anything without thinking about saving it?

While Chester trembled in shock and horror, Monia hung her head on the bowl and ate the honey fruit salad.

‘… … It’s scary.’

That Monia said she would cherish it.

I don’t know if I’ll actually save it or not, but where is it that at least I said something.

Even just thinking about the act of caring for Monia made Chester think that the honey was worth saving.

‘… … Wouldn’t it be possible to educate Monia more effectively by using honey?’

I’ve been thinking about this.

And, I thought it was worth considering.

* * *

“What is that?”

Monia looked at the basket full of honey that was suddenly dangling from the tree.

And Chester, who climbed a tree right after breakfast and hung a basket on the tree, said.

“If you want to eat honey today, you can come down with that basket. Isn’t it simple?”

“Yes? something, that.”

“Take care of yourself.”

Chester said so and left for the farm.

Recently, he discovered a large boulder lodged in the middle of the site he had decided to turn into a farm, and Chester had been trying to pull it out for days.

After Chester disappeared, Monia remained alone, watching the basket of honey swinging on the tree.

“Turn it off.”

‘Should I make a stick and drop it?’

I thought of that first.

‘But what if that happens and the hive falls to the ground and gets dirty?! You can’t eat it!’

Monia quickly got rid of that thought.

Chester wouldn’t mind a little bit of dirt on her, but Monia’s taste was stronger than before, but not to that extent yet.

Currently, Monia’s stomach was about being able to eat snake meat or fruits that she hadn’t eaten.

Rather, Chester wanted to say why he couldn’t eat something soiled.

That’s why I hung a beehive on a tree.

If you hit it with a stick and knock it off, Monia will eat the soil-stained beehive even if it’s a waste.

If not, I’ll try to climb up the tree and eat the hive anyway.

Or, if not, put down the beehive safely and eat it in a way that even Chester didn’t think of.

whatever was good

Monia will develop.

Chester watched Monia’s actions while thinking about how to pull out this troublesome rock.

“Oh, it clung to the tree.”

Monia clung to the tree.

Chester digs up the dirt around the rock for a moment, then looks back to see Monia still trembling in the same spot.

‘Are you giving strength to go up? that one?’

It seems that way.

When I listened to Monia, I heard a voice like this.

“little bit more… ! A little further… … !!”

For reference, Monia was still clinging to the tree, swaying 10cm above the ground.

‘Just a little more.’

Trembling, Monia eventually fell from the tree.

“ah.”

Monia, who had fallen from the tree, did not get up and took a rest while breathing heavily while lying down.

Monia, who took a break for a while, said something as if she was angry that she couldn’t climb the tree.

“Dare on the subject of trees! to me! Do you know who I am?!”

He huffed at the tree alone, and this time he picked up a stone and started tossing it at the basket.

Of course, with Monia’s strength and skill, no matter how many rocks she threw, she couldn’t hit the basket hanging close to the top of the tree.

Monia stomps her feet as if she was resentful of that.

Then, after a while, Monia started standing blankly under the tree with her mouth open.

“… … What are you doing?”

Chester, who saw Monia sitting there for a long time, forcefully pushed out the rock that Monia had taken out while she was doing it, and then approached her.

“What are you doing?”

“Oh, Chester.”

Monia, who was opening her mouth to the sky, pointed to the beehive basket.

“I’m waiting for the honey to run out!”

So now, you’ve been waiting for the honey to flow down on its own and fall into your mouth?

“… … That honey has a very high concentration, so no matter how long you wait, it won’t run off.”

“Eh?”

At Chester’s words, Monia looked at the beehive basket with a look of surprise and betrayal.

‘A guy like Jordi!’

Where the hell is there to feel betrayed right now?

Besides, why do you harbor such a deep sense of betrayal?

‘How much did you expect honey to drip from your mouth?’

“There’s no way you can get anything by doing nothing.”

“I waited patiently in the heat!”

Chester poured water on Monia’s head.

Perhaps the heat in her head rose from hanging from the tree, but Monia submissively cooled herself down with water.

“Calm down.”

“Yes. … Teach me how to climb a tree.”

“great.”

“Eh?”

Chester didn’t specifically ask me to solve it on my own.

Asking for help or learning from others is also a great way.

“… … !!”

However, as if she was misunderstanding something, Monia looked shocked when Chester so obediently accepted the request for help.

Again, her face is stained with betrayal.

“How hard it was for me alone!”

“Who told you to do it alone?”

“I was told to do it alone!”

Chester corrected Monia’s words.

“I said ‘take care of it’.”

“… … Turn it off!!”

Honey was just a device to increase Monia’s desire for education.

It was intended to be used to help Monia learn more diverse skills and learn them quickly.

“Okay, how to climb a tree? I’ll show you a demonstration first, so watch it.”

“huh! Let me show you somewhere!”

Excitement!

Monia said with her arms crossed, pouting.
