After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 1506

Chapter 1506: In Between Terran Villages (Part 1)

Outside the tent, a certain powerhouse couldn’t push down his smile.

"Otto, what’s so funny?" Otto turned to feminine voices at the side. He was sitting on his camping bed and had a heater next to him. It was powered by natural gas and was quite comfortable.

At this time, most people had already been settling in. Whether they were listening to conversations still happening around them, no one knew.

Anyway, the person who talked was Stephanie, and appearing next to her was Lacie. The two women exchanged glances, and he could feel the tension from a meter away.

"Nothing," Otto said, looking at them. "Can I help you with anything, ladies?"

Lacie smiled and walked in front of Stephanie. "It is really... warm on this side, I hope you don’t mind."

Stephanie rolled her eyes. "Yes, we prefer to be on this side."

He looked around them, with the hundreds of people around their area alone. Otto was right at the edge, and it was definitely less warm than the inner areas where people were clustered together.

Normally, his chivalry would let them sit by him even if he wasn’t planning on doing anything. However, he’d rather be alone right now and just stare at the tent.

"Considering the body heat, everywhere would be warmer than here," he smiled. "And...I like the cold."

...

A few hours later, still in the middle of the night, the next batch of watchers woke up and exchanged shifts. A particular tent opened up, revealing Misha, who was part of the next watchers.

She turned to see that Otto was sitting with his back against a tree, arms crossed. There were a lot of leaves that had fallen on him.

"Hasn’t he moved at all?" she mumbled to herself before heading to him, kneeling down, and gently taking off some loose leaves.

She wasn’t in a rush as she did so, taking her time to take off individual leaves, to make sure she didn’t wake him up by accident.

However, when she was done, she lifted her eyes to look at him, only to see that his eyes were wide open.

Her eyebrows rose, but she wasn’t flustered. "Good morning."

He smiled and patted the spot next to him. He was using a comfortable camping mat (it was waterproof and had cotton inside). "You can sit here while you watch camp, my location is quite good."

Misha nodded and did so. There was no reason for her to reject it.

Silence passed by them as they sat side by side. Fortunately, it didn’t feel particularly awkward.

"I don’t share," Misha said after a while, and Otto’s eyes sparkled immediately.

He grinned. "Me, neither."

...

The sun eventually came up, and everyone once again prepared for another long travel. Fortunately, they had now completely entered the so-called Terran Region, wherein the monsters were manageable, and they let the newcomers deal with every beast.

Things in the crowd got a little antsy when they went past the areas near several other villages like Juno, Diana, and Calma Villages—all of which had fallen under aborigine rule.
