After sighing I open my eyes focusing my vision on my prey, the rabbit was still eating the grass on the ground, sometimes it would raise its head while continuing to chew looking to the sides, probably making sure there were no dangers around, turning away from Saemi I walk crouching among the bushes while taking care not to be noticed, as I currently don't have any kind of strength or plan, I intend to catch him off guard and stab him, although I'm not sure I think he will die if I stab him.
As I think about it, I had finally gotten close enough to the rabbit, looking back I see that Saemi was still standing motionless behind the tree as she looks this way, I am sure she has no idea what to do, even when we were at school Saemi always asked Shinji to do things for her, you could call her a useless person, anyway this is not important to me, she is nothing more than a piece of equipment to help me with my revenge, I need to make her slowly become dependent on me, at a point where she can no longer feel safe unless she is with me, I will use our alone time to make her believe that.
I thought as a smile adorned my face, putting these thoughts out of my mind I concentrated on my prey, the rabbit was still distracted while eating, this was perfect for me, holding my knife tightly I sneak up behind the rabbit as I slowly get closer, after getting a good distance I take a deep breath and run towards the rabbit, hopefully it doesn't seem to have heard me until it's too late, once I am at a good enough distance to stab the rabbit, he sets his eyes on me, but unfortunately for him it is too late, I stab his stomach making a lot of red liquid gush out.
"Kyiiiiiiiiii"
The rabbit lets out a loud scream as blood continues to pour out of the wound I caused, i withdraw the knife and prepare for another attack.
"Kyaaaaaa"
My intention was thwarted with a scream causing the rabbit to turn its attention elsewhere, from the tree where I was standing Saemi looked over with horrified eyes and wobbly legs, I'm sure the only thing that made her balance was fear, in that situation it was pretty obvious what was about to happen.
"Damn it"
I spoke before starting to run after the rabbit that was now running after its new prey.
"SAEMI, GET DOWN"
I screamed in an attempt to make Saemi move, but unfortunately there was no effect, Saemi was still shaking as she looked around not knowing what to do, tears started to fall from her eyes as her legs shook more than ever, as soon as the rabbit walked away, he jumped at Saemi while pointing his elongated horn in her direction.

Luckily Saemi's feet finally gave way causing her to fall flat on her back, the rabbit came within inches of her head flying over her, but unfortunately, it seems he wasn't done yet, getting ready again the rabbit jumps on top of Saemi trying to puncture her.
(Do you really think you're going to stop me from getting my revenge you stupid rabbit?)
I thought appearing right in front of Saemi, I put my arm in front of the rabbit while waiting for the pain, seconds later a huge pain ravaged my body, the pain was so great that I thought I would die, however, with that my goal was complete, without a second thought I stick my knife in the rabbit's head causing it to let out more cries of pain.
"Kyiiiiiiiiii"
After a few seconds the screams subsided, the rabbit was dead.
(Now comes the hard part)
I thought as I held tightly onto the rabbit's horn, locking my teeth, I pulled the horn hard on my arm causing the blood coming out of the hole to drip onto the ground, pain again ravaged my arm, however, I felt that this time the pain was bearable.
"Y-You protected me?"
Behind me Saemi spoke in a slightly hoarse voice, her tone was indicating that she couldn't believe that I had just defended her, without answering her I throw the rabbit on the ground and prepare to do what the goddess was saying.
(How should I do this, exactly?)
As soon as I asked this question in my head the voice of the goddess again made itself present as she answered my questions.
"Extend your arm to the rabbit's body, after that call for the gluttony factor, she will eat the rabbit's soul, in return she will give you an ability based on the rabbit's main attribute"
(I understand, thank you Aurora-sama)
I thought as I thanked her from the bottom of my heart for her explanation, after that I do as the goddess says and extend my hand towards the rabbit, behind me Saemi says confused not understanding what I was trying to do.
"What are you going to do?"
Ignoring her again I recite the words.
"Swallow it all, Gula"
For some reason I feel like my voice sounded different than normal, if I had to tell the difference I would say it was similar to Aurora-sama's voice, while I was thinking about this changes started happening around the rabbit, suddenly the ground around the rabbit turned black and started bubbling, several arms of smoke started grabbing the rabbit's body and taking it under the ground, looking from the side I realized that Saemi was looking horrified at that scene, but even after this I felt no change in my body, while I thought that maybe something had gone wrong a voice spoke inside my head, the voice had a feminine tone.
