The Journey That Will Begin

Saka: What just happened? Did I die again and survive?

He stands up and walks out of the river.

A strange voice, Sakaaa.

Saka looks into the water and sees the Purple Giant.

Purple Giant: Looks like you survived again. Excellent. Your blood is truly impressive.

Saka: But... That was painful. Why did he want to kill me? I didn't hurt him.

Purple Giant: You're in a world that hates other people. There's no peace here. Saka. Look at this wall. It wasn't built for nothing. Now, Saka, you have to get stronger, and the first step is clean food. Find food and eat first.

Saka: But... What food should I eat?

Purple Giant: What about human flesh?

Saka: What the hell!!!

Giant Saka, you're a monster. You can eat human flesh. You know that. At the same time, you're a human. You can eat human food.

You choose Saka.

Saka: Whatever, I won't eat human flesh. Damn you and damn my promise.

Purple Giant, you choose Saka. This river is full of fish. If you want, eat them.

The fish started jumping onto the bank at Saka's feet.

Saka: Woah, you're doing this. Why didn't you do it yesterday? I was really hungry, and the taste of the bird was really disgusting.

Purple Giant: My powers are limited in this world. Why do you think I'm asking you to do it now? Eat and sleep well, because the suffering begins tomorrow.

The conversation between Saka and the Purple Giant stops.

The Purple Giant, catching himself, says, "This boy seems a little principled, but one day he'll realize that life is harder than that, and I'm sure of it after he tastes human flesh."
