Chapter 1101
"We must find a place where can lie low and catch some rest before it gets dark." Nicole looked around.
"It seems that we are fated to remain here on the plains tonight," Carl said, helpless as it was something he did not
anticipate would happen.
"Carl, let's go." Nicole took the lead and sped off.
"Let's just stay here tonight.We'll need to get ourselves some branches and build ourselves a simple tent.Oh, and
let's not forget, we need to think of something to protect us and our horses too," Nicole explained while examining
the tiny tree branches.
"Okay.I'll get us some sticks and twigs while you wait her with the horses," Carl said, and made a beeline for the
coppice.
Soon after, Carl returned with an armful of broken branches.
"Okay.I think we may start now."
"Okay, I need to get some traps ready while I set up the tent," Nicole said, delegating the task to him.
"Okay."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe two of them began to work together in a tense and orderly manner, and it did not take long for Nicole to
complete the tent, the main purpose of which was for protection against any of the creatures which might be
roaming about.
"How are you doing over here?" Nicole asked as she went over to Carl.
"I've set a few traps, so be careful"' Carl looked at Nicole as he continued.
"I'm going to get us some branches for firewood," Nicole said, and made her way to the coppice.
‘The protective measures are in place, but what are we going to eat? ' Nicole thought to herself while trudging
along the path.
Out of the blue, the grass in front of her rustled.
Nicole instinctively assumed a defensive posture, leaning over the grass, and treading lightly with her feet.
Then, a rabbit jumped out, startling her.
Nicole unsheathed the dagger which she had brought, and chased the rabbit down with it.
The moment she saw an opening, she seized her blade by the tip and threw it at the rabbit, killing it at an instant.
Then, she strutted over and picked the carcass up.
Once she had returned to the campsite, Carl shot her an anxious look.
"Where have you been? What took you so long?"
In response, Nicole held the rabbit out in front of her with a smile on her face, "Looks like we won't be starving
tonight."
"Ah, so you were hunting that thing down," Carl said, astonished as he took the branches off her arms.
"I was beginning to wonder what took you so long."
"Get the fire started.I'll roast it when you're done,"
Nicole instructed "Okay."
Carl rushed over, kindling the flames shortly after.
"Now that it's done, I'll leave the roasting to you."
Nicole looked at Carl.
"No problem.Just wait.We're going to make in such a way that it is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside."
Carl picked up the branches as Nicole skewered the rabbit, roasting it on the bonfire.
"Wow, that smells really good," Nicole said, as she stared at the meat cooking over the flames.
"Let's wait for a while longer.It'll be even tastier then," Carl said, looking at Nicole who he knew was already on the
verge of drooling.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Wait a little longer? No, I don't think I will," Nicole said as grabbed a piece and began tearing into it.
"How is it?" Carl asked Nicole.
"Is it done well?"
"Yeah.Don't roast it anymore.It's good as it is."
Nicole beamed with satisfaction as she ate.
‘All that matters is that we don't have to go through the night with an empty stomach, ' she thought.
"It's alright.It'll be done before you know it.I'll let you have a taste of it in a while.Trust me, it'll be even tastier," Carl
said with a smile as his face shimmered with the light from the flames.
"Okay, I'm calling dibs on the drumstick," Carl reached out and tore into the thigh of the rabbit, unable to wait any
longer.
"Wow.This is good!"
"You know, it has been a while since I've eaten any sort of meat this way.To be honest, opportunities like these don't
present themselves very often."
Nicole looked at Carl, who was brimming with satisfaction as he chowed down on the thigh.
