Chapter 636: Butterfly Slave (3)
"I'll take your silence as a yes, bro. And can you keep talking to me like this? You're so good-looking, the most beautiful person I've ever seen. It would be such a shame if I couldn't see this face."
She couldn't handle the male lead's sexual innuendo. Heaven knows, one of her biggest fears is snakes, especially such long, thick, and large snakes. It was simply beyond her ability to cope.
As Wen Wan was talking, she got sleepy and fell asleep on the weeds.
The cave was especially cold at night. Wen Wan curled up and hugged herself tightly. She then tried to crawl towards a warmer place, but she encountered a piece of ice. Wen Wan quickly pushed it away, but for some reason, the ice just wouldn't leave her. Wen Wan frowned, almost woke up, but then suddenly fell into a deep sleep.
It's not cold anymore.
The next day, when Wen Wan woke up, the male lead was no longer there, and she felt no pain at all from her injuries.
How could the system miss this opportunity to gain favor with the male lead? So it asked, "Host, do you know how your injuries healed?"
"Don't tell me the male lead helped me with the treatment."
System: [Of course, the male lead helped you heal, so you still hold some weight in his heart. Therefore, you need to cling to him tightly. Relying on yourself alone in this abyss of evil, you're certain to die, and I can't save you.]
Wen Wan: "Fine, do you even need to tell me? You're such a piece of trash, dumping me in this godforsaken place, where there are monsters stronger than me everywhere."
system:【……】
Wen Wan decided not to go looking for the male lead. It's been shown in TV dramas before. Those who die quickly are usually driven by excessive curiosity. Unless you have the female lead's halo, don't be reckless. She considers herself just a minor character and doesn't have any female lead's halo. So she must protect herself well and suppress her curiosity. She absolutely won't go anywhere when the male lead isn't around.
Her stomach rumbled, and Wen Wan sighed, "I'm Butterfly Slave, how could I be hungry?"
System: [You are essentially human, so of course you'll get hungry. And even a demon would get hungry.]
"Then think of a way."
What can a system, which has no physical form, do?
[You can only rely on the male lead to hunt for you now. By the way, the male lead went out; could he be looking for food for you?] the system guessed.
Wen Wan: "Are we that close already?"
Obviously, the male protagonist returned quickly, holding a still-bleeding...fox in his hand.
Wen Yan: "???"
The male protagonist handed the fox to Wen Wan, who was flattered and asked, "Is this for me to eat?"
The male protagonist's silence was an admission of consent.
Wen Wan looked at the fox that was still alive and struggling. Although she was hungry, she really couldn't bring herself to eat the fox.
Wen Wan took the fox. "Brother, I don't like to eat this. I want to eat fish, or chicken is fine too. This fox is so beautiful. Why don't we stop eating it and keep it as a pet?"
As soon as Wen Wan finished speaking, the fox bit her wrist, causing her to scream in pain. The next second, the male protagonist grabbed the fox. He wanted to kill it, but Wen Wan grabbed his wrist. "Brother, leave it to me. Don't kill it. It's useful."
Wen Wan grabbed the fox. "You can understand me, right? If you dare to move again, I'll have my brother eat you."
fox:"……"
"If you don't want to die, then behave yourself."
Wen Wan tore off strips of cloth and quickly bandaged the fox's wound. Then she looked at the male lead and asked, "Brother, can you take me out of here? I can find food myself, okay?"
The male lead seemed unaware of what she could eat, and she was afraid he might bring back some monster next time, which would terrify her. Luckily, it was a fox this time, or more precisely, a fox spirit. According to the system, this fox spirit possessed intelligence, equivalent to a five or six-year-old child, which was the most important reason why Wen Wan couldn't bring herself to eat it.
She admitted it.
I really can't bring myself to eat it.
After all, she had received a modern education and was a human being, not a wild beast. Besides, there was no reason for her to eat him. If it really came down to a life-or-death situation, Wen Wan would probably eat him too.
The male protagonist nodded, and Wen Wan followed him out.
Holding the male protagonist's arm, the system also began to locate the places where Wen Wan could eat. This was the only use of the system here: a useful smart GPS navigation system.
Wen Wan first found some fruits that she could eat. In fact, these fruits were all somewhat poisonous, but because she had already been modified, these poisons could not harm her at all. So the system naturally allowed her to eat them, trying to choose the more palatable and delicious ones.
Besides fruit, Wen Wan also picked some wild vegetables and mushrooms that tasted pretty good, and finally caught two fish and a chicken.
After taking these back to the cave, Wen Wan asked the male protagonist to take her to find some firewood.
Back in the cave, Wen Wan started a fire.
Wen Wan tried to start a fire by rubbing sticks together, but after drilling for a long time, there was no movement at all. She was speechless. "System, what can we do? It's so damp, it's impossible."
System: [Host, you could ask the male lead for help, right?]
Wen Wan looked at the male lead pleadingly, "Brother, can you help me start a fire?"
Afraid that the male lead wouldn't understand, Wen Wan started gesturing wildly to explain what she meant. Finally, the male lead pointed a finger into the firewood, and it caught fire.
Wen Wan exclaimed, "Brother, you're amazing! I'll grill the fish right away; it'll definitely taste better than raw."
Wen Wan couldn't find any other seasonings, only some wild honey. And with her cooking skills, she shouldn't make things too difficult for herself; as long as it was edible, it would be fine.
The first fish almost burned, but the system quickly reminded her, and she managed to cook it up alright. It looked particularly pathetic, and even Wen Wan didn't know how to eat it.
"Let me try it first." Wen Wan took a bite and then spit it out.
How could it taste so bad?
Moreover, the inside wasn't cooked through, but the outside was clearly burnt. This is really outrageous.
The system was helpless.
[Host, why don't you stop making things difficult for yourself? Be aware of your own cooking skills, just eat some fruit, that's enough to keep you alive.]
Wen Yan: "..."
Wen Wan put the fish aside and ate the fruit with a wronged expression. She didn't expect the male lead to be able to grill fish, after all, he was a snake! Have you ever seen a snake cook?
Meanwhile, the fox next to it set its sights on the charred fish, wanting to eat it, but the protagonist grabbed it by the neck and threw it away.
fox:"???"
Wen Wan: "What's wrong? If it wants to eat, just give it some."
The male protagonist swallowed the fish whole in the next second. Wen Wan's mouth dropped open, and she didn't even realize how he had swallowed a fish without spitting out any fish bones. This was indeed the son of the Demon Lord; he was different from ordinary people and couldn't be judged by common sense.
