"Get me the fuck out of here, please!" I shouted, glancing behind me as I placed the broom between my legs and thought about flying to the sky as quickly as possible.
But...
A few seconds passed, yet the broom did not ascend toward the sky.
"Shit, I knew my luck wouldn't be that good," I tossed away the useless fake broom and began to run again.
Because I had stopped for a second to do that, the villagers managed to get close to me.
"Hmph!"
One of the villagers whipped his whip toward me with all of his strength.
Looking back, I saw the determined gaze on that bastard's face.
I ducked my head just in time to avoid the whip, and a crisp sound echoed above my head from the missed strike.
"Son of bitches, if I get caught by them, it won't end well," I thought grimly as I continued to run, fueled by fear.
Continuing my running, I looked forward after glancing back, but what greeted my eyes was the hilt of a sword.
Thud!
The sword hilt struck my face with strong force, causing me to instantly collapse to the ground.
"Awww!" It was fucking painful; the sword hilt hit right on my nose, and it felt broken.
As I held my face, I saw that my hand was covered in red by the blood flowing out from my nose.
Holding my face, I looked at the one who hit me with the sword hilt, and to my surprise, it was the man who was having intercourse with the flat-chested woman earlier.
I also saw the woman standing behind him, now dressed well.
"Raika."
"Father."
As the group of villagers approached, one of the men called out to the woman, and she ran toward him and hugged him.
While they were occupied with their reunion, the other villagers surrounded me and began to kick me with all their might.
"This creepy fuck... Let's burn this thing... Disgusting," their cursing words hurt me as I curled up, trying to protect myself from their kicks.
But while those guys were kicking me, one of them suddenly pulled the bag that the witch gave me away from me.
"Wait, don't, give that to me!" I tried to stop him, but another kick forced me to the ground again. Some of them gathered the tools they had thrown at me and began to beat me with them.
At that point, I could barely open my eyes as their beating almost left me unconscious. But I could still see slightly.
The bastard who managed to pull out my bag tried to open it but found himself unable to do so. Maybe that witch made it so that only I could open it?
"Are you alright, daughter? Why did you even come to this forsaken forest in the first place?" the man who held the girl asked her, his gaze turning angry as he looked at the man standing beside her.
"Pelon, did you lure my daughter into this place?" he asked, his voice filled with accusation.
"No, father, Pelon is not the one to blame. It was all because of that monster," her words shocked me as she said it looking directly at me.
"Father, I heard them say that this is a shape-shifting monster. I'm sure he is the reason why I saw someone like you calling for me from the forest. That's the reason I went there. But once I was inside the forest, I lost my track and got lost. If it weren't for Pelon, who was going hunting today, I would have almost become food for those monsters."
Straightly looking at me, she told one of the worst lies I had ever heard, and after that, she gave her father an innocent look. And that stupid bastard, after seeing the look on her face, turned toward me angrily.
In the next second, he ran toward me swiftly and launched a kick toward my stomach area.
"Ugh!" I exclaimed in pain.
"Monster, I'm going to starve you to death for what you tried to do to my daughter," he said angrily.
I saw the daughter and the other man exchange a knowing glance behind her father, their faces expressing relief that they had escaped detection.
"Please, you have to listen to me. I didn't do anything like she says, she was lying," I pleaded in a struggling voice, but the man kicked me again.
"Let's bring this thing to the village. I want to burn this thing alive in front of everyone."
I slightly lost consciousness when he said those things to others, and after that, I felt myself tieing to a wooden plank like a fish about to be cooked. I also felt them lifting up the wood plank and began to walk.
- - - -
Creak!
Thud!
Opening a cage, a few men threw Akiel's body inside, and from the shock of hitting the ground, Akiles slowly opened his eyes.
"Stay there for now, you freak. Enjoy your time before death. Oh, out of my kindness, I'm telling you that today is the only time you'll have to live your life, you low life shits" one of the men's words echoed in my ears as I struggled to open my eyes fully. My body felt very painful from the beating they gave me before.
"Urgh," groaning from the pain, I tried to get up from the ground.
The place they threw me into had only one visible light at the entrance of the cage, and because of that, the deeper part of the cage was completely covered in darkness, making me unable to see if there was anything in there.
As I moved my hand and held the ground to get up, I felt that my hand suddenly touched something soft and melon-like. It was bouncy too.
"Looks like we've got a pervert," suddenly I heard a voice from the place I was touching, and I backed away from there quickly.
"Sorry, I was just trying to stand up," I apologized because I knew that the soft, melon-like thing I touched was indeed someone's breast. And the voice I heard was also a woman's.
"Well, that guy did say that we are going to get cooked tomorrow, so if you're looking for fun, I'm all in," with those words, a figure of a woman crawled from the darkness toward me and placed herself above me.
I was right under her, and she was above me, looking at my face with a lust full look.
"So, what do you say? You want some fun?" she asked again.
"Sorry, but I'm just beaten up badly right now. I doubt my dick would get hard at a time like this," I said politely to her.
What's going on with me actually? Why the hell are all these women throwing themselves at me lately, and to make things worse, all of them are freaking crazy bitches? Can't a guy get some romance in here?
"Cha-ka-ckha."
At that moment, another growling sound was heard from the darkness in the cage.
"Huh, oh, is it that time already?" Hearing that sound, the woman above me quickly got away from me and stood up. In the next second, while I was still watching, her body transformed into a male one.
"This... Are you the one they talk about, the shape-changing one?" I asked.
The man gazed back at me.
"Yep," he said, and after that, he walked toward the door of the cage we were in.
Considering his ability, his real shape could be this one. If so, I unknowingly dodged a bullet by refusing her or him.
As the man walked toward the cage door, I saw a woman approaching the cage with a large bag in her hand.
Creak!
She opened the cage door and threw the bag to the man. Catching it He tossed the bag to the ground as he walked out from the cave.
Standing in front of that woman, the man placed one of his hands around her waist and pulled her toward him, then suddenly kissed her. The woman also seemed completely into it.
Che... chew.
As their kissing sound resonated through the air, from the darkest side of the cage, a tiny figure crawled toward the bag and opened it.
As soon as that bag opened, I felt a deep stench filling the air.
"Is there trash in it?" I doubted, and in the next second, that tiny figure suddenly lowered its head onto the bag as it began to eat those things in it.
It almost looked like those creatures that guarded the witch's castle, but the only difference was that this one was a deep green color. And on its skin, there were also moss-like things that made me look at it a bit grossed out.
"Aghhh!" While that thing was eating the trash, the man and woman started to engage in intercourse.
The woman leaned and held the cage door as the man began to pound on her slim ass.
"Mhmmm," she moaned as the man kept pounding on her back, causing the cage door, similar to the prison door from my old world, to shake from their movement.
"Mn...
Mhmm...
Um...
Uhhh..."
Her moans kept piercing my ears as I watched them from the corner of the cage.
While they were having sex, the woman's eyes suddenly met mine, and from that point, she continued to look at my confused face as the man kept fucking her. She seemed to be enjoying the fact that someone was watching them doing that.
At some point, the man's pounding increased, and suddenly he exclaimed with satisfaction.
"Aghhh!" After that, he stepped back and put back on his pants. A bit of a white fluid fall to the ground from it. The woman also pulled down her lifted skirt and adjusted her dress.
"This will be our final time seeing each other," the woman said as she closed in toward the man and kissed him again. After that, she walked away from the cage and disappeared into the darkness.
Seems like this cage I'm in is in a place like a cave, I thought that because there's not a bit of sunlight filtering in here. And around the cage I was in wall are made from rock and sand.
The only existing light source is the fire torch attached to the wall of the cage gate.
After the woman left, the man looked back at the cage. Its door opened, and he was completely out from it. For whatever reason, the woman left him free.
"Let's go, matr," he said, looking at the creature eating trash. Hearing his voice, the creature lifted its head from the trash heap.
And once again seeing its appearance, I suddenly remembered a creature just like him that I had seen in those games and comics.
"A goblin," I said aloud, and the creature looked at me, its mouth full of trash.
"Indeed he is. And what kind of one are you? I didn't feel any familiarity within you. Are you perhaps someone who came from another region?" the man outside the cage asked me. His demeanor had changed from lustful woman to a manly man.
"Ugh, yes, I was," I lied to him because he already gave me the chance for it.
At that moment, the goblin walked out from the cage and approached the young and handsome man, after that the man look at me.
"As you can see, we are trying to escape from here. If you'd like to die and be burned to a crisp by tomorrow, you can wait here. But if you want to live... feel free to come with us," said the young man as he headed toward the direction the woman had left.
"How the hell did she walk in that darkness?" he muttered as he took the fire torch hanging on the wall and walked toward that way. Following him, the goblin walked alongside.
Seeing them leaving without waiting for my answer, I hurriedly got up and ran behind them and joined.
My head was in a mess right now. On one side, I had to escape from here along with the things they took from me, but to do that, I needed to know where they were, which I probably wouldn't find out unless my luck was high and they showed up in front of me.
On the other side, I was worrying about the time limit the witch gave me, which was three days, if I remember correctly.
