It waited until the sound of the footsteps had faded.
The Wild Boar Demon looked up slightly and glanced around with its little eyes. Then, it sighed in relief.
“I’m alive? I’m alive! Incredible, unbelievable, miraculous!”
It was unreal. Its brush with death made it squeal in excitement.
“I survived a situation like that… I must be the chosen pig, right?”
It calmed down after a long while and looked at the cabbage.
It almost died, yet, all it got was a head of cabbage as a reward. “The master of Lord Daji mistreated me.”
Usually, it would not bother looking at a cabbage. However…since it was traded with its life, anything insignificant would be viewed as a treasure.
It picked up the cabbage and limped towards the deep end of the woods.
At that moment, the demons were having a meeting. They were about to elect the new demon king.
It was crowded and fiery. There were many demons present.
The sudden reappearance of the Wild Boar Demon shocked everyone. It fell into silence instantly.
Various demons looked weirdly at the uninvited guest that was giving off a barbequed meat scent.
Some carnivorous demons wanted to take a bite of it because of how good it smelled.
The Wild Boar Demon frowned and looked at everyone. “What are you guys doing?”
“We’re…” The Green Python Demon looked at the sky. “We’re watching the thunderstorm as a group. It’s beautiful today.”
The Black Bear Demon hurriedly said, “That’s right. It’s the first time we’ve ever seen a thunderstorm like this. We’re obsessed.”
The Wild Boar Demon suddenly straightened up and smugly waved, “Ha, it’s just a thunderstorm. What’s there to look at? Did any of you see how heroic I looked bathing in the thunderstorm?”
“Nope, you were too far off.”
The Black Bear Demon asked, “How are you still alive after getting struck by lightning?”
The Wild Boar Demon was pleased to hear that. It laughed and said, “Haha, do you need to sound so surprised? I just sustained a small injury, that’s all.”
“Boar, why are you holding a cabbage?” asked the Green Python Demon.
The Wild Boar Demon was slightly taken aback. Then, it pretended not to care and said, “Oh, this? This is a reward given by the expert because I took the lightning strikes for the team. It’s not much but it’s mindful.”
The Black Bear Demon was stumped. It could not believe its ears. “Reward? A cabbage?”
The Green Python Demon rolled on the floor and laughed. “Not much? This is extremely stingy, okay?”
“That’s it?”
“Hahaha…”
Suddenly, everyone burst out laughing. They almost cried from laughter.
They all looked at the Wild Boar Demon with pity. How pitiful!
It took such a huge risk for a head of cabbage. Was there anything sadder than this?
The Black Bear Demon was shaking because it was trying hard not to laugh. Then, it said, “Boar, please, don’t be mistaken. It’s not personal. We just can’t help it.”
Stop laughing!
The Wild Boar Demon twitched and looked at the cabbage in hand. It put it in its mouth and took a hard bite.
Crunch!
Huh?
The Wild Boar Demon flinched.
It bit down on it due to hatred. However, it was stumped once it tasted the cabbage.
The juice of the cabbage flowed into its mouth along with the crunch. Suddenly, it tasted an explosion of sweet flavors that took over its taste palettes.
It looked at the cabbage in disbelief.
Was this really…cabbage?
It was too delicious!
It started chewing.
Crunch crunch!
“Oh—”
The Wild Boar Demon felt a shiver run down its spine. Every bite brought out endless juice from the cabbage. It quenched its mouth, throat, and soul.
This feeling was the best, so delicious!
This was the first time in its life that it discovered joy and satisfaction from eating.
“Yum! Yummy!”
The Wild Boar Demon forgot about how it was being mocked. It only focused on eating!
Crunch! Crunch!
The cabbage was crunchy.
Soon, the crunching sounds from chewing on the cabbage were louder than the laughter of the demons.
The crunching sounds were deafeningly loud. They did not know why but it made them feel like it was appetizing. They all gulped and stopped laughing when they saw how the Wild Boar Demon looked when eating it.
The Green Python Demon mocked, “Boar, stop acting. It’s just cabbage. Do you have to eat it like that?”
“What do you know?!” the Wild Boar Demon scolded them while it was busy eating. Then, it said in an astounding tone, “This cabbage is so delicious! Unimaginably delicious! Losers! You’re all a bunch of losers in my eyes! The expert’s truly an expert. Even the cabbage is so delicious. Lord Daji has a master like that? I envy her so much!”
Then, it continued to dig in.
The Black Bear Demon pouted. “Act! It’s all an act!”
The Wild Boar Demon looked sideways, ignored the Black Bear Demon, then continued eating.
Crunch!
The demons surrounded the Wild Boar Demon and watched it eat the cabbage.
Slowly, the cabbage was almost devoured. Only some stems were left.
The Wild Boar Demon snapped the stem in halves and gave it to the Black Bear Demon and the Green Python Demon. It said proudly, “Seeing that we’re all demon kings, I should give it to you, too. Let me show you what’s up.”
“Ugh, stems? Are you insulting us?” they said in a disdainful tone while taking the stems from the Wild Boar Demon. The Black Bear Demon and the Green Python Demon did not appreciate it.
They put it in their mouths inattentively.
Then…
They were shocked at the same time. It was like someone showed them a whole new world.
Crunch, crunch!
They were chewing so fast it was as if they wanted to chew up their tongues as well.
Delicious, super delicious!
How could something taste so delicious?
The Black Bear Demon had a lingering look. It pointed at the Wild Boar Demon as it trembled, “Boar, you’re inhumane! You only gave us this much? This is torture!”
The Green Python Demon was in a state of frenzy as it scolded, “You animal!”
The other demons were baffled.
They felt Spiritual Qi pouring in and finally fell on the Wild Boar Demon. The Wild Boar Demon was like the center point of the large swirling pool of Spiritual Qi.
At the same time, the Wild Boar Demon was leveling up like crazy.
It was already at the peak of its Out of Aperture realm and had gained a huge amount of powers. All the demons stepped back. Finally, it transformed as everyone watched in shock.
Level up…to the Distraction realm!
