Inner thoughts: Ugh… My head hurts…]
A salty taste lingered on my tongue.
Even though she had regained consciousness, Son Ga-yeon didn’t open her eyes right away. She furrowed her brow and groaned.
“Noona! Are you okay?! Noona!”
I grabbed her shoulders and shook her. Son Ga-yeon opened her eyes with difficulty.
“Noona! Do you recognize me?!”
“Uh… Yoo-jin. Where are we?”
Son Ga-yeon raised her upper body. She looked around and asked. Looking at her now, she didn’t seem to have any major problems.
‘She was supposed to be out of it, but she seems fine.’
It was a relief. I would have felt really bad if she had developed dementia or something.
“We’re in a forest in China. You should rest for now.”
“…China? I just fell asleep in the sauna, so why am I in China? Is this some kind of hidden camera prank? It’s not funny, so stop it.”
I paused. At first, I thought she was joking with me. But her serious expression and atmosphere didn’t seem like it. It seemed that Pylon’s words about needing mental recovery were true. Right now, her mind… it seemed like her memory wasn’t completely intact.
“Noona. How much do you remember? Do you remember your name?”
“Of course, I remember. I’m the acting head of the Bukbaek Son family… acting head…”
It was as if time had stopped.
She didn’t breathe for a while, then opened her trembling lips. Her eyelashes fluttered.
“I don’t know. I don’t remember my name. Why is this happening? I know who I am, but I can’t remember my name…”
“Your name is Son Ga-yeon. And what happened was…”
I explained the situation before she became more anxious. As the explanation continued, Son Ga-yeon regained her composure. After hearing everything, she let out a deep sigh.
“So, we’re in China, and my memory is like this because of the dimensional rift… or the dungeon?”
“It’s a bit much to call it a complete dungeon.”
That stone, similar to the magic stone that brat had. I still couldn’t guess what it was. I didn’t know if his purpose was to escape to China where the Yellow River Sect was, or if he was trying to create a dungeon artificially.
“How are you feeling, Noona? How much do you remember?”
“My memory… it seems like I remember most things.”
“Seems like?”
“Do you know the cheese that appears in cartoons?”
“The cheese with holes?”
“My memory is like that cheese. There are gaps in between. I just remembered that my name is Son Ga-yeon… but I don’t remember my younger sibling’s name. Do you happen to know it?”
“How would I know that? I’ve never even met your family.”
“Ah. Right.”
Son Ga-yeon sighed. Still, her mood was better than before. She tried to stretch her body, but stopped abruptly when she checked herself. Her eyes widened as she scanned her body up and down.
“W-Why are my clothes like this?!”
She panicked and covered her torn clothes with her arms.
“It’s like a side effect of crossing dimensions. You weren’t in your right mind, and you also have some internal injuries.”
“You’re fine, though.”
“I was less affected.”
She had no choice but to believe me. She didn’t remember when she was sucked into the dimensional rift.
“Haa. I guess there’s no helping it. You don’t have any clothes, do you?”
“Should I lend you my clothes?”
“No, it’s okay…”
Actually, I could have taken out some clothes from my inventory. I could have brought them from the game world. But that wouldn’t work with my plan.

Inner thoughts: My top is too torn!]
She tried her best to cover her vital parts. Then, she sighed and gave up. She lowered her arms and tried to stand tall.
[Inner thoughts: It’s a relief that I’m wearing a sports bra. If it wasn’t for the sports bra, I would have been too embarrassed to show my face.]
Anyway, it was a relief that she didn’t have any major problems.
The sun began to set. It was evening. Son Ga-yeon and I lit a campfire in a cave. Since we didn’t have any food, we had no choice but to starve.
“Should I go catch a wild boar or something?”
“No, it’s okay. I don’t know how to prepare a wild boar. It’s not a big deal to skip a day of eating. We can get food by fishing starting tomorrow.”
“Noona, what are you going to do about the Bukbaek Son family?”
“…According to Pylon, that crab, I shouldn’t leave this forest, right? I guess I’ll have to wait until my mind recovers.”
“I want to be with you, but… I have to clear the dungeon.”
“I’m fine. I actually feel bad that I can’t help you at all.”
“It’s okay. You focus on recovering. I’ll take care of the dungeon. After doing it a few times, it’s not that difficult.”
We roughly laid out some leaves and lay down on the ground.
Buzz buzz buzz.
The mosquitoes were noisy.

The sun was rising.
I woke up early in the morning, probably because I went to bed early. Son Ga-yeon was scraping thick branches with her anti-demon sword.
“Noona, what are you doing?”
“I’m making a fishing rod.”
“You seem quite skilled.”
“I’ve done it a few times. I was also curious about the feel of a natural fishing rod, and when I was young, I used to imagine what I would do if I was stranded on a deserted island, so I would fish.”
I yawned a few times, unable to overcome my sleepiness. Son Ga-yeon made a pretty decent wooden fishing rod.
“What about the fishing line?”
“For this.”
Pffft!
She completely tore her tattered t-shirt. She started pulling threads from the t-shirt and attaching them to the fishing rod. Her face was slightly flushed, so she seemed embarrassed.
She said she made the fishhook from a bone she found near the cave. According to her, it was the bone of a monster, not an ordinary animal.
“Will that work?”
“To be honest, the fishing line is a bit unstable. But if I use mana, it won’t break.”
She said. She was still sweating a lot. The sweat dripping down was also soaking her underwear. I looked at the straps of her sports bra. I had tampered with them, so it wouldn’t be strange if the straps broke at any time.
“Okay. It’s done. According to the map, there’s a river nearby. Let’s go there.”
After making the wooden fishing rod, she stood up confidently, but then staggered. Surprised, I quickly grabbed her body.
“Ugh…”
“Noona! Are you okay?”
“I-I’m okay. I suddenly felt dizzy.”
“Is it because of your mental state?”
“…No, it’s because… I’m dehydrated. I sweated a lot at night. I wish I could drink some water… but we don’t have any, right? We can drink river water. I’ll have to check the water quality… but even if it’s a bit dirty, we can boil it.”
“We don’t have anything to boil it with.”
“…Then we have no choice but to drink it as is. We’re hunters, so don’t worry about things like getting sick. More importantly… can you let go of me?”
Son Ga-yeon said, looking embarrassed. I was holding her shoulder with one hand and her chest with the other.
“Ah, sorry. Noona. I was just in a hurry.”
“I understand.”
She said calmly and walked forward. Her firm back, visible above her torn jeans, was striking. It was white, curved, and beautiful.

Inner thoughts: For some reason, Yoo-jin smells a bit seductive… I feel strange. It’s driving me crazy.]
We arrived at the river.
The river water was neither fast nor slow. As we got closer to the river, I could feel the temperature drop sharply. It was very cool.
Gulp.
Son Ga-yeon swallowed hard as she looked at the river water. The river water was clear. You could see right through it.
“I-If the water quality is this good… it should be okay to drink.”
She ran to the river. She started scooping up the river water with both hands and drinking it. Gulp. Gulp. Gulp. Her Adam’s apple kept moving. She seemed to have chugged two liters in one go, and then she smiled with satisfaction.
At the same time, she looked at the river water as if she was craving something. Normally, I would have tried to guess what she was thinking. But now, I had a cheat skill that allowed me to know a woman’s mind.

Inner thoughts: The water is so cool and clean. I want to jump in right now, but… Yoo-jin is here, so I’ll hold back. I just need to hold on a little longer. Yoo-jin said he’s going to the dungeon soon.]
It seemed like she wanted to take a shower. But I couldn’t just leave right away. That would be weird.
Son Ga-yeon rummaged through the nearby ground, looking for bugs to use as bait.
‘…Do we really have to fish?’
If I used lightning, I could have wiped out all the fish in an instant.
Was she deliberately insisting on using a fishing rod? Or was she unconsciously insisting on it? Either way, it didn’t matter. I just let her do what she wanted.
We caught some fish and grilled them. They didn’t taste good. Of course, since we didn’t have any salt.
After that, I pretended to go to the dungeon, hid my presence, and watched Son Ga-yeon. Son Ga-yeon focused on fishing for a while, then jumped into the river with her clothes on.
‘She went into the river with her clothes on…!’
She didn’t seem to have any intention of washing properly. She started swimming and enjoying herself in the river. I clicked my tongue briefly and then went to the dungeon.
***
I cleared one C-grade dungeon and one E-grade dungeon and returned.
I smelled blood.
I felt uneasy. Son Ga-yeon might be in danger. Maybe Pylon had betrayed her. That guy was a monster.
I quickly ran to where the blood smell was coming from.
There was a small hill made of corpses. Next to it, Son Ga-yeon was sitting on a small rock in the shade, fanning herself.
“Oh, you’re back?”
“Noona… what are these monsters?”
“They’re monsters from the forest. It’s common. Monsters roam in places where people don’t go. Well, most of them were E-grade or lower, so there weren’t any dangerous ones. After killing the ones that came for me first, other ones kept coming, probably because they smelled the blood.”
She was safe. She didn’t have a single scratch. However, her outfit was different from what I had seen a few hours ago.
“What’s that outfit? You’re wearing leather on your body.”
“Well… I took a quick bath in the river, and I lost my clothes. I think they were swept away by the current. I’m wearing this temporarily.”
“You’re not wearing it, you’re just draping it. Aren’t you uncomfortable?”
“I’m very uncomfortable! But there’s nothing I can do. I don’t have any clothes.”
“I guess there’s nothing we can do. I’ll give you my top.”
“No, it’s okay. Your top isn’t in good condition either.”
“Ah.”
I realized belatedly that my clothes were also tattered. First of all, there was a hole in my side where that brat had stabbed me, and my clothes were torn from the battles I had in the dungeon. It was because I had fought the monsters close to the edge to train myself. I also had quite a few minor injuries. I had used quite a few potions too.
“Still, that leather doesn’t seem right. Doesn’t it feel like you’re going to die from the heat?”
“Hoo. That’s not all. The stench won’t go away. I washed it with water earlier, but there were even some ticks. And now, it smells like blood, so I’m going crazy.”
“Let’s wear something else instead.”
“Something else?”
I raised my head. I looked at the trees. Specifically, the lush green leaves.
“Are you crazy?!”
