(Author notes: I made a mistake in the previous chapter I was calling Emily the name Lilian, Haven't updated this in months my brain was a little muddled, Sorry if you're confused. (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻)
Emily finished stitching up Edwards's wound last night around the blue campfire, the lolicon demon told them the colorful berries from before can be used as medicine, which made Emily quickly spring up to their feet and bolt towards some poisonous berries on a bush.
"How do we use them...?" Emily asked in inquiry Yameru didn't know how to use them, she saw her father once use them before after battling his neighbor for 8,000,000 Golden coins he's running short on money.
If Yameru can recall correctly she remembers him popping one of the fruits in his mouth and chewing on it but without swallowing it. Then spitting out the mashed-up fruit and then wiping it on his wound.
Emily and Yameru we're mashing up fruit with the palm of their hands on a rock, Emily doubted that this will work but she doesn't question why She doesn't want to get reprimanded again by someone younger than her for the fifth time.

Lilian and Gustav and Ivan rested on the shore tired, Lilian was cleaning her glasses cursing under her breath, They had been fighting this strange monster last night, They couldn't get any sleep.
And they were hungry, they couldn't find any food that they'd recognize, It looked familiar a bit but had different colors, And they didn't want to find out if was poisonous or not.
They didn't want to fuck around and find out and become Inanimate.
Gustav stroked his unshaved unruly beard, as was pacing back in forth lost in thought, Then it finally hit him. "hah! let's go into the unknown, What could be behind that grove of trees?"
"Everlasting Doom?" Lilian said confused.
"..."
"Why you got to be so negative?" Gustav shook his head in annoyance, They can't stay here any longer on this beach it's not safe, they've been fighting this nocturnal monster that could've wiped them off the map.
They don't want any more lives to be lost. They already lost Emily and Edward.
But staying here waiting for death isn't great, It's just boring - BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Loud aggressive stomps ripple through the air, making Ivan's ear hurt, covering them as he frowned looking into the thicket of tropical plants. He spotted something with his eyes that would perhaps torment him for life. As he quickly scrambled to his feet getting up from the sand.
Running over to Gustav but a large foot plants itself beside Ivan with a 'boom!'. fortunately, he wasn't standing under it, the impact from that stomp sent sand flying as well himself.
This brought attention to the woman and man, as they watched in horror.
That foot trunk in size to 'normal' length and width, that foot belonged to a creature covered in mushrooms moss, and other plants, It looked like a planet itself.
It scared them, that this creature could change its size, if bigfoot was real this would be it except for the growing ability and its covered plants. It could easily kill them it could just suddenly want to stomp to death.
"Ruemah - argh. " The creature said making such strange noise they doubted if it just saying gibberish.
Lilian looked for Ivan with her eyes, she spots him not far away laying in the sand motionless, maybe this useless man died, they did see him being sent up in the air like a rocket and then coming down so fast face-first into the sand and there was an as loud crack. Possibly the sound of his bones breaking.
Didn't dare to look at him anymore as she looked at this mutant plant version of bigfoot on crack. "You hideous monster! If you step any closer to us. W-w-well - we will. Shoot you dead!"
She said in a shaking voice contained with dismay, Gustav did have a shotgun on his back maybe they can shoot this monster... Right?
Gustav only had 10 bullets left. He originally had 18 but the rest of those bullets were used on the creature last night that loved to sit on people's chests while they slept it got pretty violent last night. He doesn't know what it's called.
But that doesn't matter.
Defeating 'big foot' matters right now.
