Chapter 1282: The Nature of a Monster
Tib caught a long-eared gray rabbit, although he, a peasant boy, had only made a very simple looped trap out of rattan and placed it on the path of the small animal he occasionally found, but perhaps because the rabbit was really stupid, the simple trap easily tied up the hind legs of a hare, and now the little creature who was struggling so hard could no longer escape.
"There...... Rabbit there again, I'm ...... I didn't dare to go over because I was afraid it would bite me............"
Afraid to approach for fear of being bitten by a prey that falls into a trap, the little boy with the head of the mushroom is really not a good hunter.
However, he didn't dare to approach the rabbit struggling wildly, but it didn't mean that young Kane didn't dare either, in fact, after slowly peeling off a bush, the quick-eyed blonde boy didn't even need to hesitate and directly reached out and grabbed the rabbit's strength, and then a rabbit weighing at least two pounds was grabbed by the child-looking child.
"Ha, let's get some branches and light a bonfire, and then we're going to skewer it with sticks."
The little boy who proudly grabbed the gray rabbit and walked into the bright sunshine, ignoring the frantic struggle of the small animal in his hand, can be said to have displayed amazing strength that is completely inconsistent with his age.
However, his two playmates were obviously not surprised by this, and when they heard that they could eat barbecue, both Tib and Aisha had bright and joyful smiles on their faces - although girls always inevitably have compassion for cute furry animals, in a poor village where meat is only eaten during the holidays, the appetite for meat has long outweighed those superfluous "kindness".
In fact, the girl who just glanced at the gray rabbit with a mixture of pity and appetite, nodded to little Kane, and ran to the bushes next to him, following Tib who was cheering loudly.
They need to gather enough fuel for the barbecue, and the bloody and physically demanding work of slaughtering the "appetite" is naturally reserved for little Kane, who holds the rabbit.
“............”
"It's nice to have rabbits to eat, when was the last time you ate meat? I don't remember......... But for now, let's take advantage of the sun to get rid of this rabbit, huh...... To kill an animal, you need to break its neck, right?"
"Crunch".
Just like an instinctive technique that has been tempered a thousand times, the blonde boy who began to try to slaughter the small animal just moved his fingers casually and easily broke the spine of the gray rabbit, so with a twitch of the animal muscles in his hand, the little creature that was still struggling in the previous second immediately lost the power to writhe.
It's dead.
But its death is not the point, the point is that when this ordinary rabbit dies, a wonderful and strange degree of pleasure also swept through the whole mind of little Kane in the next moment, looking at the animal slaughtered by his own hands, the stunned blonde boy is as surprised as if he has tasted incomparably delicious candy, but is completely speechless.
Tilting his head and thinking about it, he didn't remember that he had ever killed any animals in his life before he was six years old, after all, the boy with the surname "Bisadas" was a nobleman anyway, and the "filthy act" of slaughtering livestock could not require a noble child to do it.
But at this moment, when he killed a rabbit for the "first time", little Kane, whose pupils were rapidly dilated, gave birth to a wonderful feeling of "a new world slowly opening up in front of him".
Just imagine how fun and joyful it is to just kill a rabbit and ignore the struggle and desperation of the other person to take the life of a small animal...... If you can kill humans...... How exciting would it be to be able to kill other intelligent beings full of good and good intentions............?
"Kane, Kane, what's wrong with you? Tib and I have already lit the flames, let's start roasting the rabbits!"
It was Aisha's voice, and it was also the voice of the blonde boy, and in fact, before the thoughts that were slowly squirming in his heart could take shape, the kindness from his little friend suddenly interrupted the young Kane's daze.
When he looked up again, the boy found that his two playmates had already lit a blazing bonfire before he knew it, and the rabbit in his own hand was of course only a corpse with residual warmth.
At this moment, Aisha, who was smiling happily, was still handing him a sharpened wooden stick.
Everything was so calm, like clouds floating in the sky, the innocence and joy of children were filled with fresh air, the fragrance of grass mixed with the temperature of the flame enveloped the three petite figures in it, although the afternoon sun had gradually tilted, but the elongated shadows were intertwined on the lawn on the ground............
Presumably, for any normal person or "normal creature", it is extremely happy to be able to enjoy the delicious taste of a little rabbit with an innocent young playmate, everyone barbecues food together, tastes food together, praises food together, and the joy of cooperation and sharing should become the most unforgettable feeling in children's childhood.
In fact, until he killed a gray rabbit with his own hands, little Kane was no different from an ordinary boy, although he was a "noble young master" who could have "pocket money", although he wore the least patches of clothes, although his physical strength far exceeded that of children of the same age, but he still felt faint happiness because of the company of playmates, after all, children are children, spotless children are like this.
However, after wiping out a life with his own hands, little Kane, who felt some kind of "alternative pleasure", was no longer satisfied with "ordinary happiness" in the blink of an eye.
Just like the sudden awakening of some kind of "will" that is "habitual" in the soul, at this moment Bisadas only wants to get more killing, more intuitive killing, more valuable killing, and then taste the pleasure of killing, this desire that can be said to be "a part of the soul itself" cannot be eliminated in any way, and the bloodthirsty thirst is like ignited alcohol in the heart of the seemingly innocent boy.
In the next moment, young Kane's gaze on his playmate Aisha had moved from the other's face to her neck.
"I really want to see her crying and despairing, and dying in pain............"
Perhaps this is also the so-called "nature of monsters", with an eerie and terrifying voice clearly appearing in the deepest part of the heart, so that in just one morning, all thoughts about "happiness and peace" have been torn to shreds by Kane's pure and straightforward evil desires!
