Note: Don't be confused about this chapter. I guarantee that this is still from the same novel.
"Grandpa! Tell the story about the Hero!"
Little children rushed in. The old man sitting in front of the fountain in the village plaza laughed. The old man was the village chief's grandfather and the oldest living man in the village.
"What, what story?"
The old man put his finger in his ear and asked back. The problem was that the old man, who was very wise, good, kind, and smart, had bad ears.
Among the little kids, the leader shouted loudly again.
"Tell! The! Story! Of! The! Hero!"
"Ah, the story of the hero?"
"Yeah!"
Little children huddled together in front of the old man. The old man was not only smart but also talented in making stories very interesting.
"That's an old story."
"Grandpa, you've lived a long time! My mom said you might be a wizard!"
It was just what the old man went through the day before yesterday, but the children knew how old he was.
The old man continued to talk about whether he didn't hear or he was pretending not to hear.
"When I was a little younger than you, the village was very peaceful. Monster never appears and so the town was peaceful for many years."
The old man was lost in his old memories.
"When I went out to play in the woods nearby, there was a small wooden box under the tree. I brought it down to town quickly because it was so pretty."
"The villagers also looked around, saying it was a very pretty and amazing box. But the lid of the box suddenly opened."
"It was a Monster, Mimic."
"But the villagers didn't know what it really was. The box with the lid open had small teeth, a small tongue size, and two round eyes attached to the lid. What do people think this was? That's what I thought about it. Then he heard a growling sound from the wooden box. I quickly went and get my snack and gave it to the box."
"Since then, the wooden box has lived in a village under the name of Mimic."
"At first, the villagers gave food what people usually ate, but soon they gave food that they couldn't eat to Mimic instead of burying it in the ground. However, Mimic still ate them very deliciously."
"Sometimes when Mimic pretended to be a box, and I wanted to open it. I was curious and wanted to see what was in the box."
"But it was actually Mimic!"
"Yeah, it's always been Mimic when I opened the lid. Also, there are times he pretends to be a birthday present. It was a very funny joke."The old man laughed very pleasantly. Then he lowered his voice low.
"And a few years later. A very scary monster appeared."
The old man still couldn't dare to say the name of the monster. Now the only person alive who went through it was the old man.
The old man was very terrified remembering it. The monster was clearly high-level.
Why such a fearsome monster appeared in such a small town, he didn't know, as he was just an old villager man.
The Heri who chased the monster with the holy sword was covered in blood. The great hero could not beat the monster either.
Fortunately, at dawn, the village people hid within the darkness and the warrior was treated by the villagers.
