I am done for, I provoked a disaster this time, there is only one way!
with this thinking, Henry dashed past the girl, by ignoring her he began moving faster and faster.
The sudden movement made her in a daze for a few seconds,
"Wait, do you think you can run off just like that?"
She shouted as she had never been humiliated to such an extent by anyone before,
this is such a disgrace to any human regardless of gender,
out of rage even though she could not see properly she held her bow tightly and began to shoot arrows randomly.
Henry while fleeing felt chill on the back,
but he did not dare to look back as he remembered the arrow that almost took his head a moment ago.
The chase continued for a while.
"Shoo"
"Shoo"
"shoo"
As Henry ran, arrows flew from around Henry,
Henry drenched in sweat.
This can't be continued, I should do something
Henry thought.
She has been chasing me for over 20 minutes already,
sooner or later an arrow may hit me, and also my stamina is about to run out.
Henry thoughts filled with concerns.
over these 20 minutes, Henry escaped from the grasp of death many times, luck played a vital role.
acknowledging about his current situation Henry kept on pressuring his brain to find a solution.
Finally, his wisdom kicked in.
Henry began to increase his pace rapidly, disappeared from the vague sight of her.
"Where is this damn beast go?"
The silhouette stopped and started to search around,
her steps became slower but she still held a bow in her hand, she shot a few arrows randomly again.
"Shoo"
an arrow landed exactly in front of Henry.
Damn bitch, Henry cursed in his heart.
Currently, he is lying on the floor facing the land,
Henry felt pity for himself.
I should first get rid of the damn bow, Henry planned.
Henry began to crawl very slowly, he gathered three pebbles.
"Woohhh!! Fu** beast where did it hide?"
she walked next to Henry, Henry shivered as his silhouette is just an inch away from her legs.
wait, the smell
she closed her nose, as the smell was too close she thought
It might be around here.
"Damn Beast, If you are a man come out and face me"
She was trying to provoke the beast even after knowing that the beast couldn't understand her.
The purpose of doing it so just to vent her anger out, but contradictory to her beliefs,
"You Idiot girl, I am right here"
she heard an answer then saw a silhouette leaping up towards her
"phat"
Henry smashed her head using pebbles.
"aaaaaàaaa"
out of pain, she dropped her bow.
' chance', Henry whispered and did not lose the opportunity by grabbing the bow, he stood firmly facing her.
"You...you"
"You are not a beast"
She trembled while asking.
"Who told you that I am a beast? Isn't it your own assumption?"
"Then why are you naked??"
Hearing the question Henry pondered as almost forgot himself being naked.
"Wait, How do you know that I am naked?"
She did not reply but pointed her finger towards Henry's thing.
Sensing someone pointing towards it, Henry's thing erected proudly as declaring to the world that 'Yes, I am here'.
"You idiot girl, What are you doing? don't try something bad, I am not that type guy, move your hands away"
Henry spoke out loudly.
"Me Idiot? and I am trying to do something? it's you shameless bastard roaming around naked...."
The girl finished her sentence immediately by objecting Henry.
"Then, are you really not planning anything??"
Henry's voice pitched low when he questioned her.
"Why do I plan on doing something????, Are you some kind of celebrity for me to opt for such underhanded methods?"
she did not wanna back down at the same time her thoughts revolved.
What am I doing? Why am I chatting with him? and Why the hell I seemed to be as the villain while actually, he is the one who ruined my clothes and humiliated me. finally, Why am I reasoning with him?
"Nah..."
Henry released his breath,
"To think that I misunderstood, sorry "
Henry bent his head down in a respectful way to show his sincerity.
watching the shadow of a person bending in a respectful way it seemed as all of her anger dissipated for a movement and she said
"No problem".
"Ok, then I will take my leave "
Henry was about to leave,
"Wait, give me back my bow"
"why should I?"
"Because it's mine"
"Forget it, it's mine now"
"No, give it back"
"What do I get, if I give it back??"
The girl froze hearing it and she couldn't object to Henry if he wanted to trade so she had too
"What do you want?"
"Nothing much, just some money and enough water to take a bath "
" I don't have money nor water "
"then forget the bow"
Henry began to run, seeing him run she tensed up as the bow is very important to her as it's her battle relic as a
battle master and especially when it was gifted to her by her in name brother who is like a real brother to her.
"Stop, I got water but not money you can ask for anything in place of money"
"Stop, you bastard"
"I said you to stop"
"If you don't stop then I will pierce an arrow from your heart"
Henry continued to run as he pretended to not to hear anything,
As Henry began to move farther and farther from her,
when he was about to fade away from her vision, a terror ran through her.
"No, please stop"
Henry stopped.
"You said that you will fulfil any demand"
Henry asked for the confirmation.
"Yes"
She replied.
"Then how about a set of clothes?"
Henry was serious when talking about clothes as he does not get any.
"I don't have male clothes"
she said.
"Why don't you have male clothes?"
Henry questioned to her reply.
Who does he thinks I am? Some sort of cloth seller? poor girl inwardly murmuring herself.
"Then you should compensate"
Henry did not want to leave without taking anything.
"What type of compensation do you want?"
she got to listen to Henry, the bow was really important to her.
Henry pondered for a while then he said
"As concerned about clothes, I can manage yours even though it's far from enough, so give me your clothes and a kiss"
her face was blushed as she said
"You, you,you....want my clothes".
Henry nodded.
"Shameless bastard, don't you have even a bit if shame"
she condemned Henry again.
Henry's expression remained serious.
looking the serious face she gritted her tooth, took out a glass filled with water and a set of her clothes.
"Take these"
She threw the clothes towards Henry and Henry caught them.
"And this"
Henry approached her to take the glass and she handed it to him.
"I want the water to bath but not to drink"
even though Henry could not see properly in the darkness he can deduce the size by touching it.
"You bumpkin, place this on the ground it will expand to bucket size including volume of water"
she taught Henry.
"Oh..," Henry nodded in understanding and "what about these things where did you keep them I don't see any big bag on you?"
Henry was puzzled as he asked.
"I kept it in my spatial pouch"
she replied.
"spatial pouch? what is that?"
Henry asked.
"You don't need to know, return my bow first"
she refused to explain things, but
placed her palms with opened five fingers indicating Henry to return the bow
"Not yet"
Henry refused.
"I gave you what you wanted, you should stand by your promise"
The woman reminded Henry.
"No, you did not, did you forget about the kiss?"
Henry argued.
"What did you say? 😠😠😠"
She raged again.
"kiss"
Henry said.
"When did I agree with that?"
She did not remember the kiss at all.
"then forget the bow "
Henry purposely ran while making big sounds,
Henry really was an expert when it comes to playing with girls.
"no...give a minute "
she asked for time"
Henry stopped.
When Henry stopped, she calmed herself but her feelings are out of control.
how could I give a kiss to a random hooligan?
do I have to really do that?
her thoughts wandered.
"Wait here, I will go and take bath first as I am stinking, even if you won't mind , I mind the cleanliness"
Henry said.
"you..."
Henry disappeared before she had opened her mouth.
Henry did not go much farther he just took 20 steps away from her and sat down.
Can this thing really expand? with these thoughts, Henry gazed at the glass on his hand.
Let's see, Henry confronted himself and he placed it on the ground.
"ziiiiii"
Henry surprised as he saw the glass to turn into a bucket,
Oh, there are really many magical things in this world, that so-called spatial pouch looks good to next time I will bargain it from her.
Henry chuckled. He observed that it had 2 buttons and he pressed one of them
"tak"
The upper closed part of the bucket disappeared,
the water was hot and boiling,
Henry took the bath.
After waiting for quite a while for Henry, the poor girl had many thoughts
such as did he dupe me?, Why is he taking too long? What should I do if he does not come back?
as she still lost in her thoughts she heard
"Where are you?"
"Here"
"Here"
She jolted, Henry came near to her by following the voice.
"Are you ready?"
Her cheeks turned red
"Don't you want to bow?"
"I want"
"Then are you ready ?"
"Yes"
Henry closed into her following her approval, Her heart began to beat faster
5 inch.
4 inch.
3 inch.
as Henry decreased the distance between them, her heart began to race faster and faster.
When Henry's lips are almost near to her lips, she closed her eyes.
she never thought her first kiss would be something so crappy ,
because as a girl she had always been dreamed of having a handsome and outstanding boyfriend.
According to her the scene of her first kiss should be spectacular and romantic under a cherry blossom tree.
Knowing the one who was going to take her first kiss is a complete jerk but not handsome guy.
unknowingly a tear rolled down from her eyes,
she waited, waited and waited but surprisingly could not detect any sign of kiss,
after waiting for long opened her eyes and tried to locate Henry but Henry vanished, then she heard a voice
"You idiot girl, did you really think that I need your kiss, how naive? I was just kidding, don't forget to take a bath you are stinking" from far away.
She turned towards voice but could not find anything, and when she remembered about the bow.
you liar,
she cursed.
But she took a step forward,
she stumbled upon something.
she sat and tried to identify the object.
she smiled as she found a bow and she also felt other objects, one of them was the glass
You want me to take a bath with this empty vessel!
I ain't idiot while talking to herself inwardly she lifted the glass,
but finding it was still half-filled she delighted, and found it unbelievable.
Henry after getting rid of her began to search for the cat again,
He walked aimlessly for a while
His steps suspended as he saw three entrances.
One of them is bright showing presence of light while other two remained dark.
"Roarrrrrr"
The cave shook again, as the sound was being vibrated from every corner of the cave Henry could not find the actual source.
Henry decided to enter the cave where light is present so at least he can escape if there is a beast residing inside it. In the case of other caves, if a beast resides there, it is almost impossible to escape.
and then Henry entered the bright cave.
