All the Heroines are my Ex-girlfriends-Chapter 245: The First Night on the Deserted Island

Seeing the mysterious creature breathing fire—

The two girls were utterly stunned.

"What is that?"

( ˶°ㅁ°) !!

Shijo Maki stared wide-eyed at the bright red lizard, completely forgetting to maintain any sense of politeness.

"A Hawaiian lizard, a rare species on the brink of extinction."

¯\\_(ツ)_/¯

Yukima Azuma attempted to brush it off.

"There's no such thing!" Shijo Maki felt like Yukima Azuma was treating her like an idiot.

Yukima Azuma clicked his tongue.

She doesn't believe it?!

Seeing his expression, Shijo Maki grew even more irritated.

As if she'd ever believe that!

૮₍ ˶>⤙<˶ ₎ა

But just as she was about to say something else—

Shinomiya Kaguya tugged on her hand.

The moment she was pulled, Shijo Maki instantly caught on.

She recalled what had happened earlier, how no mosquitoes were near Yukima Azuma— He had even said it was due to a supernatural power.

In an instant, Shijo Maki pieced things together.

At the same time, she realized— This was undoubtedly Yukima Azuma's secret.

And to ensure their survival,

He had revealed this secret to them without hesitation.

A strange feeling welled up in Shijo Maki's heart.

The boy in front of her—

Felt like the most reliable pillar of support.

As if, no matter what happened,

As long as he was here, there was nothing to fear.

Shijo Maki recalled the moment she had cried into Yukima Azuma's chest.

At the time, she hadn't been aware of it.

But thinking back now, it had felt incredibly safe.

૮꒰ ˶• ༝ •˶꒱ა ♡

She quietly sat down,

Not asking any more questions.

Her trust in Yukima Azuma outweighed her curiosity.

He quickly stacked the firewood in a crisscross pattern.

With the help of the mystical creature carrying the blood of a Demi-Dragon, a campfire roared to life in no time.

Yukima Azuma placed the still-damp logs near the fire to dry.

Watching the flickering orange-red flames, all three of them unconsciously let out a sigh of relief.

Fire—meant hope.

But then, an unavoidable problem surfaced before them.

Even though they had a fire going—

Their clothes were still wet.

They had to take them off, or the drying process would keep draining their body heat.

Even though this was a matter of survival,

The fact remained that they were two refined young ladies.

Bringing up such a topic—was absolutely impossible.

Shijo Maki was already showing signs of shivering from the cold.

Yukima Azuma let out a helpless sigh.

Then, he stood up and began taking off his shirt.

"W-What are you doing?!"

(∩˃o˂∩)

Shijo Maki panicked and covered her face with both hands.

Covered for real.

No sneaky peeking through her fingers or anything.

For a girl whose understanding of intimacy barely extended to "kissing leads to pregnancy"—

Who had grown up almost completely isolated from contact with the opposite sex—

As pure as an apple from the Garden of Eden—

For Shijo Maki, the scene unfolding before her was far too stimulating.

"We need to take off our wet clothes to dry them."

Yukima Azuma's voice was calm.

To be honest, he wasn't entirely unaffected either.

But someone had to take the initiative.

Once he was left with only his swim trunks,

Yukima Azuma hung his clothes near the fire.

Then he turned around, sitting with his back facing the two girls.

Shinomiya Kaguya bit her lip lightly.

After hesitating for a moment, she began to move as well.

The rustling sounds of clothes being removed filled the air.

Shijo Maki felt like her head was about to burst into flames.

(๑/////๑" )

"Maki-san, this is an emergency situation. Right now, survival is the priority over everything else."

Shinomiya Kaguya tried to reason with her.

Shijo Maki opened her mouth, but no words came out.

Of course, she understood the logic.

But… to undress in front of Yukima Azuma?

Just thinking about it made her so embarrassed she wanted to die.

Seeing her still hesitate,

Yukima Azuma decided against persuading her further.

"Kaguya, strip her."

Hearing that, Shinomiya Kaguya gave a slight nod.

Shijo Maki: (⊙ _ ⊙ )!

"Wait! Wait! This isn't right!"

"Oba-sama, hold on a second, stop right now!"

"Shinomiya Kaguya!!! YAMEROOOOO!!!"

༼;´༎ຶ ۝ ༎ຶ༽

The exact details of what happened next—are better left unsaid.

In the end, Shijo Maki gave up resisting.

Beside the campfire, three sets of clothes were now laid out.

Aside from these three outfits, the only other things they had when they drifted onto the deserted island—

Were two surfboards.

Now, one of them had been repurposed by the two girls as a makeshift partition to block their view.

But… it was nothing more than a flimsy barrier that "keeps gentlemen away but does nothing against scoundrels."

All it would take was a slight rise to their feet, or a step around the side—

And they would have a front-row view of youthful radiance.

However, Yukima Azuma had no intention of doing so.

Trading away goodwill for a fleeting moment of satisfaction was simply not worth it.

Besides, these two girls—

Had ended up in this predicament because they tried to save him.

Within Yukima Azuma's heart, there were hardly any impure thoughts.

On the contrary, he felt a deep sense of gratitude.

As for the other surfboard—

At this moment, Yukima Azuma was dismantling it.

A portion of the board could temporarily serve as a tabletop for placing items.

As for the metal piece attached to it, Yukima Azuma had removed it to fashion a makeshift knife—

Sharpening it against a rock.

Then, using the crude blade, he skinned and prepped the two wild rabbits lying nearby.

He secured the surfboard with wire, skewered the rabbit meat onto it,

And began roasting.

Before long, the aroma of grilled meat spread throughout the cave.

The two girls hiding behind the surfboard unconsciously swallowed their saliva.

At the same time, an unreal feeling welled up within them.

They had clearly been stranded on a deserted island—

Yet at this moment, it felt somewhat like they were on a vacation.

It couldn't be helped—Yukima Azuma's cooking skills were simply absurd.

Even in this situation, his food could make anyone's mouth water.

There were no seasonings.

Salt was the most basic necessity, and it could be obtained by boiling seawater.

But at least for this meal, they didn't have the means to do that.

Fortunately, even without seasoning—

For three people who hadn't eaten properly in who knows how long, it was more than enough.

After finishing the meal—

The light outside the cave gradually dimmed.

It seemed that night was about to fall.

Looking outside, Yukima Azuma felt a subtle shift in his mood.

When it came to safety, he wasn't too concerned.

Even though they were stranded on a deserted island—

He wasn't Robinson Crusoe.

Not to mention he could control a supernatural creature—

More importantly, none of the three people here were ordinary individuals.

Right now, back in Hawaii, Shuchiin had probably already started burning through mountains of cash to launch a rescue operation.

It was only a matter of time before they were saved.

However, there was no doubt that the girls back home were probably worried sick by now.

Besides—

Yukima Azuma's gaze unconsciously drifted toward the surfboard barrier, where the two girls were hiding.

After everything that had happened, his attitude toward the two Ojou-samas could no longer remain the same.

Yukima Azuma could be ruthless and indifferent toward those unrelated to him.

But he placed great value on loyalty and gratitude.

Even a small favor from President Tsukimitsu when he had nothing—

Had been enough for Yukima Azuma to repay him by putting in the effort to act in a TV drama promoting shogi.

Let alone now, when these two girls had saved his life.

This debt of gratitude—he had to repay.

The only issue was figuring out exactly how.

Shijo Maki was easier to handle.

Worst case, he could just abduct her.

She was from a branch family, after all—not too difficult to deal with.

But Shinomiya Kaguya's status was a much bigger problem.

She was the eldest daughter of the Shinomiya family.

Next year, Yukima Azuma would have to face off against her brother.

If he wanted to keep Shinomiya Kaguya by his side,

It seemed he would have no choice but to get involved in the Shinomiya family's internal power struggle…
