All of my colonists have made a full recovery. That morning, Eric pushed the cart that Manu had just finished making yesterday. Manu hadn't had time to complete the horse carriage yet, so the clay retrieval mission was done entirely by humans for now.

"Ah, we should be grateful for what we get, no matter what." Wearing the modified clothes, Gwen stretched her body. "The sun is so warm, and the air is so fresh."

"Do you have to come along, Gwen?" Eric asked.

The corners of Gwen's lips dropped, but they seemed exaggerated. She was pretending to be annoyed. "You don't like my companion?"

Well, this woman whines at me, wanting to do something different, but she's just going to the lake. This woman had often gone to the lake to collect supplies from the escape pod that had brought her here. This shouldn't be anything new to her.

Seeing Gwen who put her index finger to her lips, Eric shrugged. "No, but it's safer if you stay at home. Not because you're a woman or anything, but you..."

"Don't know much about this place yet?" Gwen cut him off, then puffed out her cheeks. "I'm tired of hearing that. Is a month not enough for me to make you guys believe in me?"

"It is not like that ...."

Eric didn't continue his speech because suddenly Gwen hugged his arm.

"And there are you who can definitely protect me, right?" The woman gave him a teasing sigh. "I heard that you are very good with your sword."

Eric sighed again, then put his hand on Gwen's head and pushed her so hard that the blonde woman fell backward.

Ouch.

"Hey! What the fuck!" Gwen cursed while still sitting on the ground.

Eric didn't look at the woman and continued to push the cart. I laughed, and Gwen gave me an annoyed look.

"You don't know how to treat a lady well, do you!?" Gwen got up and patted her dirty butt, then followed Eric again.

"Depends on what species of lady it is." Eric still didn't look at Gwen as he spoke.

Gwen was silent as she walked, then glanced at Eric with veins starting to appear on her temples. Her teeth gritted, and her left eye twitched. I laughed even more when I saw that comical angry expression. Gwen clearly didn't appreciate that and glared at me again.

"Sorry, but that's funny," I spoke while still laughing.

Gwen snorted and shifted away from Eric, then crossed her arms over her chest.

It seemed she was really annoyed.

Minutes passed as they continued through the meadow. Gwen glanced at Eric several times. Hmmm, maybe this woman is still curious about Seb's son?

"Try flirting with him again, Gwen." I made the suggestion because I wanted to see what reaction Eric would show.

Gwen glanced at Eric for the umpteenth time, then fiddled with her hair. Not only that, she lowered the cleavage on her shirt, which was already too low. She did all that while looking the other way and whistling.

"I don't need your boobs, bitch." Eric still didn't want to see the woman. "Save it for the perverts."

Holy shit. I salute you for being able to speak like that in such a relaxed tone. He looked like he was talking normally, not mocking Gwen.

Gwen immediately stopped in her tracks. She froze as she continued to look at Eric.

"What's wrong with your brain!!??" Gwen screamed in an unbelievably high-pitched voice. Her eyes were bulging very wide as if they were about to pop out of their sockets.

"What's wrong with your brain?" Eric asked back.

And all I can do is laugh out loud again. In the real world, I would have a stomach ache. I didn't expect Eric to have that kind of personality.

Gwen drifted away from Eric again, and I felt sorry for the woman. So, I'm not asking her to tease Eric again. I chose to use the fast forward feature instead. In just a very short time, the two of them had arrived at that lake.

And Gwen started to take off her clothes.

"Really?" Eric shook his head, still not looking at Gwen.

"So what? I'm not naked this time." Gwen snorted, pulling down her pants.

"When did you make those clothes?" I was amazed to see the crochet bikini she was wearing. She makes ropes the size of half a little finger from fabric and leather scraps, then strings them into a bikini that barely contains her breasts and crotch. Even the bottom of the bikini only protected the middle of her buttocks, much like a thong.

Gwen winked at me. I clapped and shook my head in appreciation. The bikini enhances her beauty even further, even more so than when she was completely naked. Well, at least to some degree.

Finally, Eric looked at Gwen.

The blonde-haired woman chuckled, then bowed her body while puffing out her chest. Her legs were crossed, showing that she was making a sensual pose. "Hoo... In the end, do you want to see me? Is this bikini to your taste.."

"I don't see the part below your neck. Hell, I didn't even see your face. I'm just watching your forehead." Eric spoke in his usual tone. "I just want you to listen to me. I feel like you won't listen to me if I don't look at you." historical

I laughed again. Maybe, because of your words, Gwen is even more reluctant to listen to you, Eric.

"Could you stop making fun of me, Eric?" Gwen snorted again, this time with her hands on her hips. "What do you want to ask?"

"You want to swim here?"

"So what? Manu said that a lake like this doesn't have anything dangerous." Gwen took her eyes off Eric, walked towards the lake with a pouting mouth. "And I'm not going too far."

Eric scratched his hair. "It's not like that, but it's still quite chilly now. And Why not on the river closer to our house?"

"I've always been able to stand the cold. I don't like rushing water too." After passing the clay part of the lake, Gwen's feet started to enter the water, making her smile.

"Ah, it turns out that you have thick skin, both literally and figuratively." Eric looked away and took the shovel from the carriage.

Gwen turned her head to her colony mate. "What do you mean, Eric!? You said I have no shame!?"
