Blessing Curse (Curse of Blessing)
47. Negotiating

"KZRAAKK!!! SINGH!!"

The sound of our swords clashing with their weapons clang to each other, breaking the silence of the forest. Sometimes I get hit by a pig's head kick that viciously attacks me.

"Na Yeong, can you help me?!" I shouted to Na Yeong who was not far behind me as I tried to hold the giant scythe of the pig's head with my sword.

I can't lie, the ability of a pig's head is beyond my limits. I was overwhelmed with his relentless attacks.

"Didn't you see me fighting these two idiots?! you're only fighting him, but you can't beat him!" Na Yeong quickly replied to me and went back to fighting the head of the antelope armed with a mace and a buffalo armed with a giant hammer.

I also saw Sazhawa was busy overcoming the goat's head with his axe and the sword-wielding dog's head.

There's no way they'll take the time to help me deal with the pig's head.

Na Yeong was right, I was only fighting the pig-head, but it was precisely him who looked the most terrifying to me. Sometimes his tongue stuck out long and twisted until it reached his entire face. Honestly, it was not only horrible but also disgusting.

"Follow with us, and no one will be hurt...!" said the pig's head to me who was refocused on it.

"Only in your dreams!"

"Yahoo!!!" I attacked him back.

--

After a long battle, me and the two princesses were also unable to defeat them.

"Their power is like unlimited...!" sazhawa said gasping.

We were resting on backs in the middle, while the five beast-headed creatures surrounded us with their terrible grins.

"Must I remind you again who's wrong?!" Na Yeong sounded still upset by the cause of all this.

"Do you mean it's all my fault!" again Sazhawa raised her tone while observing the heads of the beasts.

Yep! at times like this, they still fight. I'm sick of hearing their fights.

"Can you not talk about it now? we're facing these fucking demons! understand little...!"

My rebuke was annoyed for them to re-focus on the fighting opponent.

"Na Yeong started it!"

"You started it!"

Happened again...

As Na Yeong and Sazhawa were busy blaming each other, a sudden attack came from the head of the antelope, making me flinch and quickly take action.

We moved away from each other and took back an attacking position. And again, the fight continues.

"Their energy is infinite. I have to think of a way...!" I murmured while observing their stamina which did not also decrease after slightly moving away.

Even our battle that had been going on for almost three hours did not exhaust them. Precisely the opposite happened to me, Na Yeong and also Sazhawa.

We have to attack them as a team!

A moment after noticing the circumstances, I finally had a thought. Right, we have to fight it simultaneously, just like when defeating a snake monster. But this time, I should pay more attention to their abilities, the two princesses who are with me. In addition, we have to save energy, especially Sazhawa energy.

"Do you have an idea?" Na Yeong walked up to me panting while staring at the strange-headed creatures.

"Hm yeah...! I think we should fight them by becoming one." I nodded in response.

"Being one? wh-what do you mean?" na Yeong's face was flushed and fluttered in response to me. Ah, maybe he doesn't understand.

"Ah, that's.so we have to form a team, you and Sazhawa have fighting skills above me, then you guys have to lure them in first." I explained to him, hoping he understood my point.

"You mean you want to sacrifice us again??" Na Yeong looked like she was unhappy with my idea. I have to convey it well so that he understands.

"Is this a good time for you to make out?!" shouted Sazhawa who turned out to be currently dispelling the five beasts.

"Whoever makes fun!" Na Yeong seemed to not accept Sazhawa's words.

I saw the overwhelmed Sazhawa, finally withdrawing from the throng of beast-head creatures that attacked him brutally. He flew closer to me and Na Yeong.

"Then what is this?! you sacrificed me while you were alone here, you think I'm blind! Ha!"

When Sazhawa arrived in front of us, he charged at us with his ridiculous prejudice.

"Stop saying stupid, Sazha! this is not the time to fight!" sahut Na Yeong was tired of Sazhawa's attitude.

At a time like this, even Sazha still had time to think like that, it was really sad.

Meanwhile, I saw the gang of strange-headed creatures staring at us with gaping mouths like a bunch of starving demons.

"Na Yeong is right, Sazha, we are thinking of ways.I'm sorry if I trouble you.." I told him to stop his anger.

So far, she is a sweet and pleasant figure to me. Unexpectedly, there are still many other sides that I do not know about from him, but not from a negative point of view. She still remains Sazhawa to me, the first girl I saw after waking up from the dead.

"Then did you find a way?" his anger seemed to be slightly abating. Although she still clashed with each other with annoyed gazes with Na Yeong, she still cared about the current state of affairs.

"Hm, he found out. But the thing is, he wants us to face them, while he, I don't know..." Na Yeong nonchalantly explained what I had just told her.

"That's not what I mean." I exhaled tiredly to the two of them.

"Oi!! are you guys going to continue the fight, or are you going to have a threesome there?!"

I was really surprised to hear the pig's head say that. And the two girls beside me.

After I thought again, it seemed like they could be invited to negotiate. Because from what I saw, their bodies were indeed human, only the head of the body resembled an animal.

I thought of something...

I ventured to start negotiations with them. It seemed, the head of the pig was the head of their entourage.

"Look! I want to say something to you guys, can we talk?!"

I can feel that at this time Na Yeong and Sazhawa who had not stopped being flabbergasted, were now increasingly astonished by my words just now.

"Well! after acting strong, you want to ask me to let you go? look how narrow your head is!"

Shit, he's right. The pig-head made me speechless. But I won't stop here.

"You think it's fair, the five of you and the three of us, plus, as you can see, the only two foolish girls with whom you can fight...!" I'm looking for an excuse. But who would have thought, it was my words that invited tremendous anger from the two princesses.

"What did you say?!!!" snatch them simultaneously.

I don't think twice.it's getting harder.

"You calm down first, I just want to negotiate with them." I whispered to them.

"But why should we say two stupid girls?!" sazhawa said with a loud whisper to me.

"I'm sorry, I have no other way" I sincerely asked them.

I hope they understand

The heads of the pigs and the others looked at each other, some nodded and others shook their heads.

After a while, the pig's head finally came forward to head towards me.

My heart trembled, as if to be dislodged. But it's an opportunity for us, I have to endure.

Sazhawa and Na Yeong slightly stepped back, worried in case of an impromptu attack. While I just stood up while eliminating all my worries.

I'm sure he can count on, at least for now.
