Chapter 7 - Hell or heaven (middle part)?

A grumble sounds can be heard again from Rosa Diana. With an unwilling expression to take even the spoon, she is starving, but she doesn't want to dine with such a shameless man. Why didn't she just die of drowned, so she won't meet this shameless man in the first place.

Many more of the grumbling sound started to rap itself in the small hut which makes William does not know whether to laugh or cry. From Rosa Diana responded, her red eyes are tearing soon.

"Little sister, tell big brother here who is the one in this world dares to bully such a graceful young lady like you? I will castrate him personally." William hit his own chest with a righteous expression and exclaimed that he is going to do whatever it takes to the one who dared to bully her.

"..." still no response from Rosa Diana. The teary seeming to come out at any moment.

"Little sister, this big brother really does not have any candy for you, but I will definitely can make something really more delicious than candy for you, okay?" William really don't know how to console her anymore. This won't do, that won't do. He is going to collapse soon if she still cannot be coaxed to have dinner.

"Big sister, I am wrong, right. Who in this world does not want to have such graceful, beautiful, and clever like you as a wife?"

"Here say Ah! Say Ah! It is not hot anymore, say Ah! Say Ah!" With a spoonful of food, William tried to feed it to Rosa Diana.

"I will follow your words, and listen to you, okay? Just listen to this little brother here now, okay? Say Ah!" William said toward Rosa Diana since he already out of his wit as he has never coaxed anyone before.

"Really?" Rosa Diana's eyes bright immediately after heard William Max said the last sentence.

Oh! I really dug my own grave this time. William with an unwilling expression, yet he still replied to her what she wanted to hear the most right now.

"Yes, everything is at your command, your majesty."

"No, it is everything is at your command my empress." Rosa Diana correct William's sentence and makes a winning action toward William Max.

"Now, the very first command is to follow pig actions and sounds for me." Rosa Diana said toward William with bright eyes.

"Unwilling! It is too late, now."

"Come! Come! My little pig."

Rosa Diana with a happy expression said toward William.

"Ouck! Ouck! Ouck!" the grunt sound that similar to the pig made by William's voice.

"Now! Come here" Rosa Diana waved toward William who was on his four legs on the floor.

"Ouck! Ouck! Ouck!" but William just make a grunt sound with an ignorance expression, he chose not to go toward where Rosa Diana pointed at.

"Ouck! Ouck! Ouck!" Ah! You wanted this big brother here to go there, in your dream. I already lost one, I won't lose again for sure.

"What! You just said that you will follow my every command?" Rosa Diana with an angry expression started to stand up and walked toward William.

"Ouck! Ouck! Ouck!" William still replied with a grunting voice of a pig toward Rosa Diana.

After Rosa Diana get closed to William Max, she bends her upper body a little and pinches his ear with one hand.

"Ouch! Why did you pinch me?" William asked her with puzzle expression.

"I said to go toward where I sit. Why didn't you follow my command?" Rosa Diana replied with question of her own.

"Ah! Big sister, are you an idiot? How can a pig understand human language?" William replied toward her with an ignorance expression that doesn't understand what she just asked.

"Ha ha! Little sister, you wanted to play with this big brother here. You need to learn more at least a hundred years." William happy with his victory this time.

"You!" Rosa Diana doesn't know what to describe William anymore. How can a person be this shameless?

"You this! You that! Beside this "You!" don't you have something more serious to talk about." William said toward Rosa Diana and completely ignored her as he is also hungry, so he started to devour the foods on the table like there is no tomorrow. Since you don't want to eat then don't eat, let see how long can you stand there?

Not long after Rosa Diana saw how William ignored her and started to eat like it is the last day on earth. She is really speechless again but from her hungry stomach, if she doesn't take action now, everything on the table will be empty.

So, the competition started between two people to see who can have more food than the other.

-------

A while later there are only empty plates on the table, with a happy victory expression Rosa Diana forgot that she was just so angry toward this shameless man. The very first man that completely ignored who she is.

A bub sounds was released, Rosa Diana face become red again but William completely ignored her. He started to clean up the table after resting for a while. Want to play a little princess with this big brother here, in your dream; I will play the reverse, completely ignore you.

"Okay, now you can at least tell me about yourself after completely eating my supply in stock." William with ignorance expression started to talk toward Rosa Diana.

"Did I promise to tell you about myself?" Want to play with this big sister here, in your dream. You can continue to stay here in this forest for the rest of your life if you don't change your attitude toward this old lady.

Rosa Diana already catches a hold toward what is William's goal since he rescued her. She will definitely take him with her to leave here, but she needs at least to show him who is the boss here.

"You!" this time it is William's turn to say the word "You!". How can he don't understand his stand point?

Rosa Diana finally calm down after having her empty stomach become full. There is an old saying that "You cannot fight on with empty stomach.". It is seemed right after her stomach is filled. She knows that victory is in her hand so that her emotion starts to become more stable. She completes ignore William and starts to look around the small hut and just to find that it is quite amusing as at every corner of the hut there is an object like tube which it is emitting light, so it is like that the hut is brighter than even in her house.

Even though her household is not the wealthiest in the city, but she at least can afford to have a few candles to light up some important places in the house when the night comes. It is quite expensive to expend money just to buy candles and it is not safe, too. Those tubes are not a candle, right? How did he create it? Come to think about it again, it is quite warm in the hut. How did he have so many amusing things? Who is he?

"Hey! Little brother!" Rosa Diana said toward William who is having defeated expression.

"If your answer can satisfy this big sister here. I will reconsider again" Rosa Diana said toward William that makes his expression immediately brighten up.

"Big sister, you can ask me anything. If I know, I will immediately answer you." William replied as fast as he can, afraid of being abandon here by her. After a month or so, he is already nearly going insane if he cannot come up with a way to leave this forest. It is not like he didn't want to leave by himself. It is just that this forest is so big that he will lose his way around and it is not safe as it seems to be, too. Around the lake where he stayed is the safest area. If he did go out for a few miles around the lake, he had even met a wolf pack once. If he didn't happen to have some explosive weapons at that time, his life will definitely hang.

"Hmm! My questions are easy and you will definitely answer all of them." Rosa Diana said toward William to ease his tension.

"How did you create that tube? How can it be this bright?"

"Huh! You don't know it. It is called Lamp. A tool that used electricity power to light it up. I invented it myself after build this hut as it is quite dark at night and I cannot continue to do anything else besides sleep early." William replied with a proud expression toward Rosa Diana.

"What! You created it just to light up your little hut. Where did you learn to create such thing?" Rosa Diana beautiful eyes open in a big way and exclaim in surprise toward William Max who sit opposite to her.

"I don't know how or where did I learn this knowledge, too." William honestly replied toward Rosa Diana.

How did I forget that he has lost his memory? I have to get him to work for me no matter what, Rosa Diana thought to herself.

"Okay! Tell me how did you create it?" Rosa Diana asked again with an earnest expression this time.

"Oh! The materials around here are quite crude, thus I can only use what available at hand. Wait for a moment." William stands up and goes into his little lab near to the kitchen.

"This is a crystal that I got from around the lake. It used as a container."

"This chemical like liquid it is from electrode fish from the lake, I fished by chance."

"And this big box is a battery. After many experiments of many chemicals with electrode fish blood, I can finally generate electrical power to supply the lamp. If I can find better materials to create a conductor and engine, I won't need this kind of thing in the first place." he didn't know how he had this knowledge, but he thought that he might learn about it before he lost his memory.

"So, this thing is called a lamp. Is it safe to use?" Rosa Diana asked William with anticipation expression.

"Yes, it is safe as it will not burn anything that touches it. It is just that you have to be a bit careful not to drop it as the crystal might break from impact." William started to light up the lamp using the battery on the table.

"Here try to hold it." William holds the lighted lamp and gives it to Rosa Diana.

"It is quite cold" Rosa Diana surprise to find out that it doesn't burn her hand and it is also brighter than what a candle light can produce.

"I can bring you back with me, but you need to stay with me. Of course, it is for your own safety as you don't even remember who you are. How are you supposed to live alone in this brutal world?" Rosa Diana's words made William delight for a moment before he comes to rely on a cruel reality later.

"What did you say? A brutal world? What does it mean?" William's ignorance expression is what Rosa Diana expected to see the most.
