324 Treat Or Die

(Cai Hong POV)

"Papa! Papa!" Cai Hong ran towards Papa! Cai Hong don't know why Papa is here too but with Papa around, everything will be ok!

Muu? Cai Hong tried to hug Papa but Papa disappear?

Buuu… Bad island… Make Cai Hong think Papa is here… Cai Hong should just make this island disappear...

Mnn? Big sis Manami also disappear? Cai Hong alone?

Oh noes… Papa will get upset… Papa told Cai Hong to stay with big sis Manami but big sis Manami disappeared...

The leaves in the trees are making noises… The wind is also cold… Everything feels weird to Cai Hong.

Forest is dark… Papa? Where Papa? Papa… Cai Hong want hug Papa...

*Crack*

Muuu? Something break twig? Make loud crack sound… But no one there?

*Crack*

Muuu? Happen again on other side, but also nothing there?

Cai Hong want go back to Papa now… Ummm… Beach is this way? Cai Hong will follow path back to beach and find Papa. Then Papa will give Cai Hong lots of head pats!

Mmm?! No! Papa said Cai Hong cannot leave big sister's side! Cai Hong is now a bad girl! Papa won't give bad girl head pats! Cai Hong must find big sisters to be good girl again!

Umm… Big sister was over here before… If Cai Hong wait here, big sister come back?

Cai Hong will wait here like a good girl!

…

…

*Whoosh*

Wind is big and noisy. It blew something to Cai Hong's feet.

Cai Hong picked it up and it was a piece of paper with a drawing.

It look like someone drew a tall stick man with a forest around the stick man.

The picture is weird so Cai Hong ate it.

Nom nom nom. Crunchy. Why is paper so crunchy?

Cai Hong continued to wait.

…

Whoosh…

Wind is big again and another paper flew to Cai Hong.

This paper has a small stick man at the bottom corner of paper and big words on it, 'Don't look or it takes you'.

Cai Hong ate that paper too. This one was crunchy too.

…

…

Wind blew again but Cai Hong was ready!

Cai Hong took the paper before it landed and immediately ate it.

Nom nom nom.

Muuu? Why is there a weird buzzing sound? Cai Hong turned around and there was a weird tall and thin man standing between the trees.

Weird thin man has no face but Cai Hong knows he is looking at Cai Hong.

Cai Hong huffed, Papa say that big men who keep staring at little girls from far away are bad people, so this man must be bad!

"Bad man! Pervert! Go away!" Cai Hong shouted at the bad man. Papa taught Cai Hong to do this in case of bad men. If Cai Hong does this, bad men will definitely run away!

Muuu? Bad man not running away?

This must be a super bad man! Papa says super bad men will try to take Cai Hong away from Papa! Cai Hong no want that!

Mnnn?! Super bad man is coming closer to Cai Hong! Super bad man must really want to take Cai Hong away!

Super bad man stood in front of Cai Hong, he looks very weird without a face.

Mmm… Super bad man is not taking Cai Hong away? Maybe super bad man is not a super bad man?

Cai Hong tilted head at him, "Ummm… Are you a super bad man?"

The super bad man reached out a hand towards Cai Hong, grabbing Cai Hong's shoulder. He tried to pull Cai Hong away but Cai Hong stood still.

Muuu… Super bad man is a super bad man after all! He wants to pull Cai Hong away to make Cai Hong a bad girl!

Buuuu… He wants to make Cai Hong a bad girl… If Cai Hong becomes a bad girl… Then Papa will be upset… Papa will be sad…

Father will be sad…

I grabbed his long thin hand, my own fingers barely managing to wrap halfway around his wrist. I had only aged myself up to a teen after all so he was still larger than I was. No need for mass destruction now anyway.

Tilting my head, my mouth opened wide before biting down on his hand, tearing a chunk of meat out of him.

The thin man noticeably panicked and tried to pull his hand away but I held fast, pulling him back to me instead.

He was probably trying to scream but he neglected giving himself a face so that wasn't possible.

Using his high centre of gravity as a leverage, I tripped him by kicking out his feet to pull him down to my level, a smile on my face when I smelled the unmistakable scent of fear from him.

So this guy thought I was a helpless little girl lost in a forest? I am my Father's daughter, a pathetic little man like him isn't even qualified to touch me.

I bit his lower arm, using my free hand to hold the upper part before pulling my head back.

The loud ripping sound of his arm being torn off its socket echoed through the forest. I made sure to stare straight at his featureless face while I started to chew, biting off chunks of it to swallow.

Some kind of shadow tendrils started growing out of his back, transforming into spikes that shot themselves towards me.

I didn't even pay these things any mind as I strengthened my skin, the spikes bouncing off me without leaving a mark.

He tried to kill me with those tendril like things for a good minute before finally realising its futility, opting to try escaping instead.

He tried to pull himself free a couple of times but my grip remained firm, my lips curling into a bloodstained smile after I made a show of licking his blood off my fingers.

Surprisingly, his blood was red too, I had almost thought he wouldn't bleed with how inhuman he seemed.

Only when my hands were completely clean of his blood did I let him go, the unexpected release causing him to stumble backwards before he crawled away from me.

I regressed myself again, turning back to my child form while maintaining my smile at him. He likes to chase little girls so much? I'll let him get chased by a little girl instead~

"Cai Hong will be a good girl for Papa. Papa says you are a super bad man… So Cai Hong will eat you. But Cai Hong is nice. Cai Hong will let you have a five minute start to run before Cai Hong eats you."

Super bad man stood up and quickly disappeared.

Mmm… Cai Hong will follow super bad man to find big sister, then Cai Hong will eat him and go back to Papa.

If Cai Hong tell Papa about super bad man and how Cai Hong listened to Papa, Papa will call Cai Hong a good girl and give Cai Hong lots of head pats!

Ehehehe~

Mnnn? Is it five minutes yet? Mmmm… Cai Hong no want to wait, Cai Hong will go chase the super bad man now!
