I and Wolfie are glaring at each other.

( •̀‿• ́) ( •̀ ω • ́)

[Are you ready to stake it all?]

*Serious nodding*

[Winner takes everything!]

*Throws high in the air*

*Thud* *Falls on the ground*

A shiny silver coin. Pretty big.

The same one my wanderer friend left me.

It glisters in the sunlight…. not.

We in a gloomy forest. But my bet is it would.

If there was any sunlight to be found that is.

It would shine bright like a diamond.

I wonder what a gold coin would look like?

Probably fucking awesome.

Hum. Let me see what side it fell on….

I stressfully tighten my fists.

Sweat is running down my eyebrows.

I'm clenching my good luck charm tightly in my left hand.

Hope the side I chose is facing up.

And …..

FUCK ! NOOOOOO !

* Smug wolf* (* ^ ω ^)

Damn it. That means I have to cook for Wolfie.

Cook all of the meat.

But none for me.

Those were the stakes.

Had I known I would have chosen a different path in life.

*kneeling on the ground in despair* orz

There goes one of my daily sources of joy.

It is all smooth sailing in life until your luck runs out.

Is this the first of many failures?

Hopefully not.

*worried* (ノωヽ)

Maybe my lucky charm ran out of luck the last time it saved my life.

Is this iron hilt hot garbage…I mean cold garbage now?

Maybe. But either way I'll keep it.

But what if this is just temporary?

What if it needs to recharge?

The most convenient op plot devices usually have cooldowns.

Worst case it's just a simple trinket. Still has a sentimental value.

But seriously …why do I have a souvenir from the training instructor, but none from my own lover?!

(-_-;)・・・

And why am I only realizing this now?

Won't people misunderstand me?

Carrying the broken sword of his lover…THAT'S NOT IT!

Don't slander me!

Actually, that wouldn't be slander.

The original owner is a DILF in his own way.

Tall and muscular.

Angular jaw.

Probably able to carry anyone in a princess carry.

I just don't want to send the wrong signals.

What if I end up breaking the hearts of countless bachelors?

*sigh* (-_-)

In any case here I am. Dodging like a boss as usual.

Grilling meat like a real chef.

The fire boar is still heroic in spirit.

He is all oily right now, but still imposing somewhat.

Sometimes I wonder where he gets his unyielding character from?

I swear that boar is so awesome he deserves his own Fate character adaptation.

Anyway, I feel disheartened right now.

Usually, I'd be gleeful at seeing golden crispy pieces of meat getting done to perfection.

Not this time. *sigh*

This gluttonous wolf's stomach seems to be endless.

Yet I can only watch by the sidelines with envy.

I'm never betting against Wolfie again!

These terms are inhumane! (〃>_<;〃)

Oh well. There is always tomorrow.

**** (POV)

NO! HE'S HERE AGAIN!

���(º □ º l|l)/

THAT MONSTER IS HERE AGAIN!

I want to run. But I can't.

Representative won't let me.

I don't know why.

She wants me to keep charging at him.

This has been going on for way too long.

I have lost weight lately.

I'm always running around.

The demon toys with me.

ψ( ` ∇ ´ )ψ

He throws pieces of my friends at me!!!

He keeps insulting me.

Make it stop!

Of course, I resist as usual.

I need to if I want to live.

I resist so much that the beautiful trees are all crashing down.

Sad, so damn sad.

But it can't be helped.

I just want to lie down and cry.

Death is becoming even more appealing.

I want to live my life free.

I want to protect the endless forest.

I want to meet new friends.

But I'm trapped.

Other kings don't want me in their territories.

The humans outside of here are also scary.

But can these humans be worse than this demon?!

I want to protect the forest.

Why is the representative doing this to me?

She is the core of the forest itself.

There is no place for me here anymore.

I want to meet new friends! Alive ones!

All I get are corpses thrown at me!

All cut up in pieces.

*Shivers* ▓▒░(° д °)░▒▓

I'd rather meet enemies at this point.

He leaves with a satisfied smile.

Guess we are done for the day.

I crash down on the ground.

Devoid of any strength.

The tears are mixing to the grease stuck on my skin.

*Cries* (╥╯⌓╰╥)

This is the worst! I can't!

I CAN'T ANYMORE!

*Cries* (ಥ﹏ಥ)

I AM DONE WITH THIS!

So what if I perish.

So what If I get eaten by humans.

Tonight I am leaving.

This comfortable home of mine is no more.

I will probably die outside.

I will probably end up subjugated.

But I cannot endure it anymore.

None of this cruel torture.

I am not strong enough.

I'm already broken.

My mind is in shambles.

I can't sleep. Ever.

My nights are filled with nightmares.

My days are filled with a living nightmare.

Over and over and over.

I am done.

*Sigh* (。•́︿•̀。)

See you, forest.

I will always remember you.

I take a step toward the exit.

"Where are you going?"

Oh no! (〇_o)

Why?

Nooooo!

I need to play it cool. Need to answer.

"R-representative what a coincidence! W-what brings you here?"

〜(><)〜

"Leaving the forest, are you?"

"O-of course not I was just…. talking a walk! That's it!"

( •́ ₃ •̀)

"*sigh* Who are you trying to fool…."

"I-I don't see what you mean representative!"

"I won't allow you to leave you know."

"I see." It was all useless. No matter. "Then I'll die fighting!"

ヽ(`△´メ)ノ *Heroic boar*

"Wait why do you even want to leave the forest in the first place?"

"I AM THE PROUD FLAMING BOAR KING!

I MAY BE DEFEATED BUT I WILL NOT COWER!

I WILL NOT ENDURE ANY MORE TORTURE!

ESPECIALLY ONE SO POINTLESS AND HORRIBLE

TODAY IS THE DAY I …."

"Wait?! Do you perhaps not know what cooking is ?!"

"….What?" (@_@)

"I said do you not know what cooking is?"

"DON'T TRY TO CONFUSE ME! I DON'T CARE WHAT THAT TORTURE METHOD IS CALLED!"

"…..hum ….you know how you usually eat roots, bulbs, nuts and whatnot? Well cooking is when you take the meat and use fire to make it delicious. It tastes about 100 times better than what you usually eat."

"IMPOSSIBLE! I EAT ONLY THE TASTIEST OF ROOTS !!!"

"No, no. I'm telling you your roots are trash. Literally trash. Tastes horrible."

*vomiting*_:(´ཀ`」 ∠):_

"STILL TRYING TO CONFUSE ME! WHY WOULD THE DEMON HURT ME SO MUCH WITH THESE TINY WEAPONS THEN!"

"Oh, that? It's to make sure the pieces don't fall off. How is the meat supposed to get done if you keep moving around? If you stop running all over the place there would be no need for that. Hell, you could just make us some fire and be done. Why are you even fighting him?"

*shrug* ┐('~` )┌

"…."

What?! What?!

I don't need to be fighting him?

No more pain?

No need to run around?

Food hundred times tastier than roots ?!

This is impossible! But she looks serious.

She is stronger than me. She has no need to fool me.

What?!

I need to be sure! I can die but I won't give up!

"MAKE A SOUL-OATH ON IT!"

"…What?"

"MAKE A SOUL-OATH THAT IT IS 100 TIMES MORE DELICIOUS THAN ROOTS!"

"This guy ….fine …I solemnly swear on my soul that ….*omitted for being too long*"

OMG, THIS IS REAL!

NO MORE TORTURE!

I CAN LIVE HERE!

TASTY FOOD!

*Ecstatic boar*
