Chapter 48: The Big Bird

So, I asked them to run away. My two colonists were able to keep their distance from the big bird. However, they ran out of energy and breath after a while, while the bird was still aggressively pursuing.

At that moment, I felt that my choice was wrong.

"Hey! Hey! Shoo! Shoo!" Manu tried to chase the bird away, which was now only half a meter away from him. Because the man's leg has a scar, Manu is left by Kat and Rox, who are already quite far from him. "Help meeee, Kat!!! I don't want my dick to be lost!!!"

"Bwaaak!!!" The giant bird extended its long neck and opened its mouth, aiming for Manu's buttocks.

The man seemed to be trying to run faster but couldn't take it anymore. The back of his pants was caught by the bird's peck. Manu tried to free himself, but the bird twitched its long neck wildly. The bearded man fell down, his pants sagged, and his stubby bum was exposed.

"My dick! my dick! Save my dick!!!"

"Kat! Help him!" I shouted near the girl.

Kat immediately stopped running, twisting her body while taking the bow and arrow from her back. When she was facing back, the girl was already aiming.

Zap!

The big bird jerked back as soon as Kat's arrow hit its body. Manu is finally free and crawls fast like a madman with a big hole in his pants.

"Bwaaakkk!!!" The big bird screeched and turned its gaze to Kat. The girl winced.

"Don't be afraid, Kat!" My screams got louder. "Keep shooting that bastard beast and order Rox to attack it!"

"Rox, attack!" Kat gave the order while backing away and aiming again.

"Woof! Woof!"

Zap!

The second arrow only hit the beast's outstretched left wing. Finally, the big bird ran to get to Kat, but Rox jumped up and pounced on the winged beast's leg. A fierce struggle ensued. The bird tried to peck at Rox, but the dog remained resilient and maintained its bite, despite being hit several times by the bird's beak.

I move to Manu who has started running again. "Hey, you don't run away, attack that ugly bird, you goat beard!"

Manu stopped, threw his bag of goods on the ground, then raised his ax. "Die, dick-snatching bird!"

The bearded man ran. Rox managed to pull the bird's leg hard, making it fall. Before the black-feathered bird could get up, Manu jumped up, lifting his ax high.

Thwack!

The ax hit the bird's neck, causing it to spasm violently before finally not moving at all.

Manu drew his ax, which was now covered in blood. The man then took a tough breath and moved to sit down.

"Aaaaaaaccckkkk!!!" Manu jumped as his butt landed on the bird's sharp hooves. The man was wobbling uncontrollably on the ground, clutching his butt.

Ouch. Because Manu's pants were torn in the buttocks, the bird's nails pierced his buttocks. I hope the nail doesn't stick right in the middle. I can't imagine the pain he was in.

"Rox!" Out of breath, Kat walked over to her dog, which was staggering toward her. "Are you ok?"

Kat crouched down to examine her pet. And that's when I saw something that never happened, prompting me to immediately hit the pause button. However, I was late. I had to use the replay feature to go back three seconds.

The amber-eyed girl narrowed her eyes and grimaced. It was clearly a worried expression.

I immediately saved the expression to my screenshot directory, which only contained three photos. This is a rare moment that must be captured.

Kat examined Rox's three puncture wounds, then hugged the animal and rubbed it gently like a child. "Today you were amazing, Rox. I'm so grateful to have you. Thank you."

Rox didn't bark but let out a groan-like sound.

Ah, moments like this are the ones that make me invest my time to play this game.

Just as she let go of her hug, Kat's gaze fell on Manu, who was in a prostrate position. The man's bare ass was fixed on Kat.

Kat's face reddened. And as usual, with a blank expression, she turned her face away.

I was too hopeful. I thought I'd see a cringe expression or something from that girl. Should I ask Manu to stay in that position and have Kat look at him?

No. Poor Kat. Her eyes could be damaged if I forced them to do that.

***

The sky had darkened, and a bonfire had been lit. Kat had just finished bandaging her pet. I don't care if Rox's wound needs that many bandages. He's a hero today.

"Good, boy. Eat a lot, please." Kat stroked her dog, who luckily didn't lose his appetite. The pet was devouring the big bird's flesh.

"Excuse me, Kat." Manu looked through the nearby bushes, showing a wooden needle and a hole in his pants. "It's too dark in here to sew. I need the light from the bonfire."

Kat took a stick-stabbed roast bird from near the fire, then turned back and began to eat. I also faced the back, not wanting to see a man without pants.

"So, why did the bird attack us? Did you provoke him?" Kat asked after I ordered her.

"Well, the Biruhud bird is always aggressive. It could mistake our usual moves for a threat." Manu explained. "There is a legend that the bird can never be tamed. And whoever tames it is the god's chosen one. Their names will be remembered forever."

Is it a challenge from this game?

Kat stopped eating and fell silent.

"Huh?" Manu said in a surprised tone. "You weren't thinking about trying to tame that beast, were you? If there's even the slightest thought in your head wanting to do that, forget it. I said that my friend had lost his dick by a Biruhud bird, right? He, as a fellow animal tamer, was envious of the senior tamer who managed to keep a bear as a pet. One day, he decided to do that in order to get recognition from his tribe. If you don't want to lose a dick like him…. Errr…. You don't have a dick, anyway..."

"Enough." Kat started eating again. "I don't need to hear stories about dicks while eating."
