( Emilia's POV )
After meeting with Kaguya, Yuuki found several beds and he put them in a room on the second floor that we were going to use as a base, since the players who captured me had eaten all our supplies, we had to eat all the snacks that Yuuki had in his backpack and when we finished eating Yuuki and I sat on one of the beds and he hugged me, I could guess where this was going.
Yuuki: Emilia, can you tell me why you were nominated?
I wanted to talk to Yuuki about so many things and that insistent was one of them, but that was at the bottom of the list but on this island that is something he needs to know.
Yuuki: No matter what you say, it won't change the way I see you.
I let out a big sigh and I told him my story, as I told him more his eyes became colder and colder but he wasn't looking at me, he was looking into the distance.
Yuuki: You didn't do anything wrong, there's no way they would have just let any of you go, If you hadn't called the police probably none of you would be alive.
Emilia: no one was on my side! My friends told me that it was better if I disappeared!
Yuuki: I will always be on your side.
Yuuki was the first to tell me that I hadn't done anything wrong and he patted my head gently while I was venting and when I finished he took his smartphone and he made a call.
Yuuki: Matsu, I need you to give me all the information you can find on Seichiro Yoshioka.
Matsu: [ you got it, I'll send you what I find in a few seconds ]
When I hear that name I look at Yuuki's smartphone and on the screen I see a beautiful redhead with glasses.
Emilia: Matsu? Are you that Matsu?
Matsu: [Hmm? Do I know you? ]
Emilia: I-It's me, Himiko.
Matsu: [ oh Miko-tan, how small is this world, I can't believe that you are on the same island as Yuuki ]
Emilia: my real name is Emilia by the way and yeah I was surprised when I recognized him
Matsu: [ I would like to be able to chat more but I have to cut this conversation short, I'm a bit busy ]
Emilia: d-don't worry that's fine.
Yuuki: You'll have more chances to talk later, Matsu, I'll start the mission tomorrow, tell the others to be ready.
Matsu: [ leave everything to me, you make sure to protect Emi-tan. ]
Yuuki: Consider it done.
Emilia: Yuuki why did you ask for information about Yoshioka?
Yuuki: well, I want to meet him in person.
Emilia: and...
Yuuki: I don't know exactly what I'll do when I see him but probably nothing good.
I don't care what happens to Yoshioka but I don't think he is worth his time, more importantly, he said tomorrow he would start a mission.
Emilia: Yuuki, what will happen tomorrow?
Yuuki: oh I don't want to ruin the surprise but it will be something you will never forget.
Emilia: For some reason, that sounds like something dangerous.
Yuuki: haha don't worry I won't let anything happen to my little wife.
Emilia: t-that's only in the game Yuuki!
Yuuki was just teasing me but hearing him say that while he was hugging me made me blush.
Yuuki: but we are playing BTOOOM in real life, which means that as long as we are on this island you are my wife, right?
While we are on this island, what will happen when I leave this island, right now it sounds ridiculous that I'm going back to being locked in my room, right now I just know that I want to spend more time with Yuuki.
Yuuki: By the way, I found a place where we can take a bath in the building.
Emilia: This place has running water!
Yuuki: Not exactly, you just have to leave that part to me.
//////////
Kaguya and I entered the place that Yuuki mentioned, a bucket with holes in the bottom hung from the ceiling and with a hose connected to it was working as a shower and while we were taking a bath, Yuuki was within earshot of us.
Emilia: Yuuki?
Yuuki: umn? I'm here.
Emilia: what are you going to do... once we leave this island.
Yuuki: once I'm done with this game I need to take a long trip.
Emily: trip? You will go to another dangerous place like this island right?
I can easily imagine Yuuki doing that, he came to this place voluntarily to stop this game, I think this is not the last time he will do something like that.
Yuuki: yeah something like that.
Emilia: y-you think... you could take me with you.
I don't have anything waiting for me except my mom and she'll probably be glad I'm not home all day.
Yuuki: I don't see why not.
Emily: r-really?
Yuuki: Sure, I'm not the kind of man who leaves his wife behind.
Emilia: stop saying that ok.
Yuuki: can you blame me, you look very cute when you blush.
When we finished bathing Yuuki said that we should sleep early, I wanted to sleep next to him tonight, and when I told him I could see that he wanted to tease me again but he didn't say anything when he saw me glaring at him.
After everything that happened today I wanted to have a long and relaxing rest but in the middle of the night I opened my eyes when a light shined on my face, Looking down at me was a pale woman with long black hair, she was breathing heavily and she was dressed completely in white, a word came to my head, ghost.
Emilia: Kyaaaa!
Yuuki woke up immediately with knife in hand and he looked around quickly.
Yuuki: what the fuck happened?
Emilia: g-g-ghost.
Yuuki: ghost?
Yuuki looked at me strangely and I felt embarrassed but I know what I saw.
Emilia: I k-know how it sounds, but I swear I saw a ghost.
Yuuki: ok, let's find it.
Emily: what? Seriously?
Kaguya was rubbing her eyes because my scream had woken her up, Yuuki walked over to Kaguya and put her on his shoulders, he extended his hand to me and I took it.
When we left the room Yuuki didn't seem to be looking for the ghost, he was walking with purpose, he seemed to know exactly where to go and he stopped near the door of a room and he hit the wall like he was nocking a door.
Yuuki: hey, miss ghost, can you come out? We're not going to do anything to you.
After a few seconds, the woman I saw a few moments ago left the room and she looked less... terrifying than before.
She was called Murasaki Shiki and she was a player from the previous game on the island, she was stranded here because she lost her left hand in an explosion and the game organizers completely ignored her, Yuuki asked her some questions, which Shiki was happy to answer and she also gave us a warning not to trust any man because a group of women like us would be targeted by them, which made me laugh a bit and Yuuki gave me a little nudge.
And of course, Yuuki also told her that he would finish the game tomorrow and that she could escape with us.
Yes, just one more day, and this game will finally be over.
