The Days to Survive with Several Girls on the Uninhabited Island

The nuclear war destroyed the world, and I was spared when I was taking the girl group on vacation. On an inhabited island with seven gorgeous beauties, I had become the only man on the uninhabited island. The most disagreeable assistant had become the sweet cake among girls. The popular actress sought after by thousands of people could only hold me tightly and warm themselves in the most primitive way. There were many dangers on the uninhabited island. Fortunately, I can add skills to myself. As long as I breathe, I can get experience points, which can add to my life skills. When the beauties tried to drill wood to make fire, I had already lit a bonfire. When they ran away because of meeting the wild boar, I had already crouched in the grass with a self-made spear and been prepared to launch a fatal blow at any time. Whether I was hunting or cutting trees, I could obtain the experience points of survival. Experience points could be exchanged for a new skill of survival, and I could also give the skill upgrade. After I could provide survival skills upgrade. Life on the uninhabited island has become colorful, but it was a little difficult to deal with the seven girls. This was the annoyance of happiness.

I know several wizard novels with similar setting and seeing how the author continuous to avoid implementing unique setting in his novel I have lost all my prospects for this novel. I dropped this quite early and wish best wishes to escapades daring enough to continue.
