Reborn Through Fire By Kazuya Higan Chapter 616
Chapter 616 You Didn’t Listen Again
“Juste over here.”
“Say what you have to say!”
“Come over here and I will say it.”
“Then you had better keep it to yourself,” Gilbert said nonchntly and continued to bend down to
collect
firewood.
Kisa red at him, then staggered to stand up with one leg.
Gilbert caught a glimpse of her action, and his face
darkened instantly. “I told you to stay where you are? You are not listening again.” He came for her as
he spoke.
Kisa pouted. “I called you so many times, and you didn’te over, so I had to go over to you.”
Gilbert pressed her to sit down. “What do you want to talk to me about?”

“Nothing, just trying to get you to eat something,” Kisa said, taking thest of the bread out of her
pocket.
Gilbert furrowed his brows. “This kind of stuff, I—”
“Come on. You had better stop being picky. You try to be tough with your mouth, but your stomach is
honest. Eat
some and save yourself from fainting because of physical
exhaustion.”
“Heh, am I that weak?”
“You just look that weak right now.‘

He had stubble on his chin, his eyes bloodshot, looking
haggard. But that still did not hide his inherently
sophisticated aura.
Kisa unwrapped the bread and broke half of it for him. Eat some, so you have the strength to think of a
way out.
Gilbert pushed the bread back to her. “Keep it for
yourself. There are wild fruits over there. I will go eat the
wild fruits.”
“How can those be eaten? What if they are poisonous?”
“I already ate onest night. There is nothing unusual
about my body, so I guess it is not poisonous.”
“But-”
“Alright, we don’t know how long we are going to be stuck here. Keep this bread to yourself, and don’t

me,” he said, then got up and walked toward the pond.
again.
Kisa stared at him from behind, her eyes inexplicably
welling up. ‘He said he didn’t leave the bread for me on purpose? He is such a liar.‘
There were a lot of red fruits about the same size as small red dates in the bushes over the pond, not
very good- looking. There was no way to tell if they were edible. Gilbert squatted by the bushes,
plucked a few of the
fruits, and put them into his mouth.
Kisa was still worried. “Is it really not poisonous?”
“Whether they are poisonous, I can only eat this. That bread of yours is, at most, only enough for you to
last
another day and night. I will try this fruit first. If, after a
day and night, there is still nothing wrong with me, then it proves that this fruit is not poisonous, and
you can also
eat it.”
‘Is he testing the poison for me?‘ She squeezed the bread tightly and tried not to think about it. But
looking at his
broad shoulders from behind, she could not help but feel
touched. Only in this cave, where the grudges and grievances between them couldytent, she and
he
were unwilling to mention them again. At this moment,
they both had only onemon goal, to survive this ordeal. So those grudges and hatred really did not
seem to
matter anymore.
Another night had passed. In the morning, Kisa woke up from the cold. The fire beside her had gone
out, not even a spark left, but only a bit of residual warmth and white smoke. The firewood she had
collected was all burned out, so she had to collect it again. She nced at Gilbert across from her; he
was facing the firece on his side, one hand under his head as a pillow, one hand casually resting on
his waist. Kisa did not want to disturb him. She quietly got up to collect firewood. The lighter was next
to her. She had to gather some firewood to get the fire going again, as it was the coldest time of the
morning. She
pounded her cold, stiff legs, then slowly got up from the ground. Her heart burst with joy as soon as she
got to her
feet.
