"Where's Sakura? Did she not come down to here?" A woman in middle age asked.
"Who? Sakura? That girl never listens to any. I told her many times but she is stubborn as hell." The man had a pocket face.
"Don't say so, She's your daughter. I know you're upset about that but she has her own issues."
"Own issues? I hardly think so. Your daughter was born that way. She went up the hills and do some weird things with the war corpses. Don't tell me she does indecent things with them?" The man wondered.
"N-No, Why would she?" The woman was dramatically shocked "How can you say that to your daughter?"
As they were having a tough conversation, a man entered the house hurriedly.
"Rio! your daughter came down from the hill. She's with a boy." This had shaken both the man and woman who didn't have any idea.
"What?!" The man went out in a hurry.
"Don't, I know her...She would never do that against our will....." The crying woman went out following him but with a slight delay.
****[Change of perspective]
"So, this is the village? It's rather big than what I expected."
"Loki, this is just the beginning. This village carries a lot of good stuff. You can be satisfied with just that."
"Is that so? But first, we head straight to the forest."
"Huh? Right! We have to before my father find---"
"Sakura!"
"Shit, Looks like we got busted." Sakura funnily tilted her head.
"Is that your father--"
As Loki was about to say that Sakura grabbed his mouth, trying to shut him up and run like an angel. No, it would be more precisely to say Run like a mad bull.
"The fu*k!" The speed was so extensive that Loki was unable to say any more than that. The villagers were glazing at them with cheerful eyes. He never understood it ar first but now that he saw the reason wondering in his very eyes.
"Hey! it's hurting! I'm still not fully healed. " As Loki screamed to notify Sakura, She stopped at once. "Oh, sorry, I...I... didn't look that...."
"It's okay."
Sakura was exhausted from all that running. She held her knees and breathed heavily.
Seeing that Loki uttered, "Let's just wait here. I don't think you can hold anymore."
"oh, I think so. we have some time in hand."
Sakura was someone who would try to push forward to achieve her goal. She even got against her family.
"So, the that was the infamous forest?"
"Y-Yeah, Pretty much."
In front of was standing an unknown forest that Loki had never seen. This forest was emitting a mysterious aura. Loki felt a bit scared but he didn't step down from his mission.
"No matter what, I'm gonna kill that forest monster or whatever there is. This rotten village is gonna get more rotten."
"Hey! Who the hell are you to say my village rotten! You!"
"You adore this village?"
"Of course, this is where I have grown."
"I see, rotten girl."
"What did you say?"
Loki kept walking ignoring her saying.
"Hey, Who the hell is rotten? Are you listening? don't cry when I smash your balls."
