Chapter 105: Bad Feeling

The thick snow covered the grounds and trees. My colonists remained at home, warming themselves by the fire. The heavy snowfall outside had no sign of stopping.

Manu and Seb were focused on watching the ongoing chess match between Kat and Pif. By far, those two were the most skilled at playing that game. They both have a record of three wins against each other.

Leva, who had just come out of the toilet, looked at the chessboard, which was made of only pieces of wood with charcoal scribbles, then sneered. "I don't understand why you guys like boring games like that."

"Shhh..." Manu put his index finger to his mouth. "Please be quiet, this match is exciting."

Leva narrowed her eyes as Kat moved one of the pieces on the board. The pieces made by Manu still look very rough, but at least they can be distinguished between horses, kings, queens, and others.

Snorting in annoyance, the red-haired woman grabbed the parka from the coat hanger near the door. "I'll practice outside, Pif."

"Okay, Sis." Pif stays focused on the game. He just moved his horse.

Leva, who was wrapping her fists with pieces of cloth, snorted again and left the house. She walked briskly toward what looked like a wooden scarecrow. That thing's body was wrapped in the remains of leathers and cloth, as well as leaves. Manu made it and placed it next to the workshop so that Leva could still have fun. The woman couldn't enjoy playing chess at all.

"Stupid Pif." She hissed, then began practicing the combination of punches to the training dummy, echoing a loud banging sound.

I could see from her expression that she was doing it with a lot of emotion. What exactly happened to you, Leva?

Feeling worried, I went into the house again and whispered to Pif. The young man immediately made a stupid move in his game, making Manu and Seb frown. Then, it leads to Kat's victory.

"Ah, looks like it's going to be 3-4 for you, Kat." Pif stood up and grabbed his parka.

"Ah, maybe he's worried about his girlfriend outside, so he can't concentrate." Manu shrugged.

"What?" Seb gaped at his fellow colonists. "Did I hear right? They're a couple now?"

"Well, actually we didn't hide it." Pif answered shyly, without looking at his comrades.

Seb scratched his head. I don't know if he was disappointed or confused. It was the blonde-haired man who used to be almost in Pif's position.

"I also only found out about it at the beginning of winter." Manu shrugs again. "You also find it strange that they are a couple, right? They call each other brother and sister after all."

The strange thing is you guys. Why did you only know about this after so long?

When Pif opens the door, Seb and Manu find that Kat has finished arranging the chess pieces.

"Okay, now it's my turn." Seb folded his sleeves, moving in front of Kat.

Manu chuckled. "You want to lose again?"

I didn't see the game start and chose to exit instead.

"It's very cold outside, Sis. Don't you want to go inside?" Pif approached the red-haired woman.

Leva didn't answer and continued to beat the training dummy.

Pif spread her arms slightly. "Actually what are you doing, Sis? Talk to me... Please."

"Nothing."

"Tell him how you feel." I gave the order to the woman. "Don't make him any more worried."

Leva stopped her boxing practice, then caught her breath. It took a few seconds before she finally opened her mouth again. "I'm on a period.... Actually, it's not just that.... You must remember about the animal attacks before winter, right?"

Pif nodded. "Of course, whether it's rats, guinea pigs, or chickens, somehow everyone is after my dick."

Maybe because your dick looks delicious to them, Pif.

"It's hard for me to explain.... The point is, after I fainted for days at that time, I felt a change in myself. Before the arrival of the beasts, I felt something uncomfortable in my heart." Leva sighed, blowing white steam from her mouth and nose. "I didn't know what it was at first, but after three attacks by the beasts, I assumed it was a warning of danger."

[New hidden trait unlocked]

[Forecast of impending danger - Leva can sense impending danger]

After passed out for two weeks, she got this hidden trait, huh? I don't know if this trait is valuable or not. As a player, I will know the enemy's arrival in advance and prepare my colonists.

"And now you feel it again, Sis?" Pif walked again, getting closer to her 'older sister'.

Leva turned around. "And this feeling of discomfort is greater than ever. Perhaps what is about to come to us is something more dangerous..."

Pif put his hand on Leva's cheek, making her fall silent.

"No matter what happens, I will protect you, Sis." Pif said quietly.

Leva closed her eyes, holding her lover's hand tightly. "I'm not worried about myself, but I'm afraid something will happen to our house and its inhabitants."

"We can definitely do something. Have you forgotten how many times we've been able to get through obstacles?"

Just as Pif's words finished, the falling snow stopped in midair. The cold wind that blew disappeared, and the two people also didn't move anymore.

Yes, the auto-pause is triggered.

I turned my head to the north, finding an arrow emitting a red glow pointed downwards in the distance. The arrow floated in the air, like the arrow indicating my colonists' location, but in a different color.

I flew to that location. Luckily, this new feature has been added, so I don't have to search in a broader area. I just needed to find the danger in the large red ring that appeared on the ground, five kilometers in diameter.

It didn't take long for me to find a group of people walking in the snow.

[Raiders of Congraylham Colony]

The warm clothes of the seven men in the party looked more modern than the inhabitants of my colony, as did their weapons. All the melee weapons they carried looked much more refined even compared to those made by the Redtooth tribe.

However, that's not what worries me the most. The three of them carried neither melee weapons nor bows, but one pistol and two rifles.
