Hvisland: A VR Colony Sim Game

"Nice colony you have here." A transparent dark green figure spoke to me. Like H and Red, this male figure also has no facial features.

"Is that so, Lanz?" I watched my colonists at work. Since Seb was no longer taking care of the plants, I had him cut down the trees while Pif was still working on the bricks. Manu himself has started to build a brick wall in the open part of the shelter.

"You are great to get to this stage with permadeath mode. I also use that mode and really regret it." Lanz sighed. "I already feel a very strong bond with my colonists, you know."

"Yeah, I was hoping to hear advice about not using permadeath mode before starting this game." I replied, continuing to stare at my colonists. "You could say, I only lost two colonists, and even then they only joined briefly, but other events related to death traumatized me."

"Many who use permadeath mode eventually retired from this game, including me. Therefore, I salute you."

I looked at my friend. "Well, maybe because I'm so fond of them, maybe even more so than people in real life."

"Holy shit." Lanz looked the other way.

It turned out that Kat had just come home dragging a fairly fat boar.

"Nice day, huh?" Seb, who had also just returned carrying an ax and dragging a log, smiled brightly at the sight of the boar. "You get good animals in a fairly short amount of time, when you usually leave until late afternoon."

"I'm leaving again." Without waiting for Seb's response, Kat put the boar down, then left the settlement with her dog again.

Well, we still need to stock up on food. So, if there is an opportunity to hunt again, why not do it?

Seeing Lanz, who continued to stare at my female colonist, I chuckled. "You're in love with her? Her name is Kat. And sorry, you can't have her."

"No wonder you still want to play this game. I've never found a girl as hot as her in my gameplay." Lanz scratched his head. "You must really want to protect her, right?"

"Well, I want to protect everyone." I shrugged again.

It is true. I want to see this colony survive and prosper.

"Ah, I have to go now." Lanz checked the time in his UI. "Good bye. I'll check your gameplay again sometime."

After I replied to his words, Lanz logged out of my game.

When I was about to use the fast forward feature, I saw Pif, who looked at the shelter, then left his job of molding bricks.

Did he hear Leva's moans or something?

Pif entered the shelter through the door because the open part was almost half-covered with bricks. It turned out that Leva was still lying down and was speaking softly, but the words were unclear. Her body was no longer wrapped in bandages. Thanks to her quick self-healing ability, she had appeared to be healed entirely in the past few days. Well, at least from the outside. However, it was only her consciousness that had not returned yet.

"How do you feel, Leva?" Pif slightly lifted the leather blanket covering the red-haired woman's body to check. "Well, looks like you haven't peed today."

I know. It seemed very strange for a young man like Pif to do such things. However, I had no other choice. Kat had to hunt every day, and cleaning was certainly something that couldn't be put off.

Instead of going straight back to work, Pif looked at Leva's face, which was still pale and looked a little thinner than before.

After a while of doing that, Pif shook his head with a flushed face.

Huh? You have taken care of Leva for so long. And now, there's a feeling that has developed in your heart, Pif?

Pif wiped his face and glanced back at Leva, who had already opened her eyes. The skinny young man immediately froze at that.

Leva suddenly straightened up in an unbelievably fast motion, causing Pif to flinch hard.

"Ughhh...." The red-haired woman held her head and grimaced in pain.

"Leva?" Pif asked.

With a stiff motion, Leva turned her head to the young man. "Is that my name? Leva?"

Oh, shit.

Pif widened her eyes, speechless.

"Where is this?" Leva started to look around, then squeezed her head with both hands. "What happened? Who am I?"

"You are Leva." Pif said in a cautious tone. "You are a member of this tribe. Do you remember me? My name is Pif. What about Kat, Manu, and Seb?"

Leva squeezed her head even more, then bowed. "Arggggghhhhh!!! Arggghhhh..... Hmmmm...."

More and more, Leva's voice sounded discordant and strange. Pif could only stare in confusion.

And finally, the red-haired woman lifted her head, looked back at Pif, then smirked. "I was just kidding. I remember everything."

"Don't scare me like that!" Pif snorted in annoyance.

"What happened? I heard screams." Seb enters with Manu.

"Hey, you're awake, Leva?" Manu asks.

Leva waved her hand to the two comrades. "Hi, everyone. Now you guys have nice clothes, huh? Where's mine?"

Now Leva was only wearing some kind of garb like the one in the hospital, but it wasn't neatly done.

"That's yours." Pif pointed to a set of clothes beside Leva. "It was Lara who made it. She said it was a gift."

Leva frowned and grabbed the clothes made of white cloth with large pores. Instead of a shirt and trousers, the outfit's top is just like a bikini's bra, and the bottom is just like super short hot pants.

"What the fuck is this!" Leva flipped through the clothes with wide eyes. "What was Lara thinking when she made this!?"

"Kat suggested the top." Manu explains.

And I asked Kat to suggest a bikini top. I can't help it.

"Kat says she feels more restricted in her movements with clothes that cover more." Pif added. "Maybe you're like that too."

Leva slammed the clothes down. "And you all expect me to wear it!? It's as nearly naked as before! What..."

The red-haired woman stopped her speech when her stomach suddenly rumbled.

"Ah, you haven't eaten properly in a long time, have you?" Seb smiled. "I'm going to prepare a nice meal.. Kat just happened to get something out of the ordinary."
