The Human Giant

Yoze felt a shiver run down his spine as he imagined a witch staring at his body's delicious flesh. Not desiring to be eaten, Yoze gritted his teeth, stood up, and tried to find something to wipe away the paste.

The cabin was relatively clean with a weird design of being incredibly low to the ground. It was a cabin made for a child and not an adult.

Eventually, Yoze was able to find a blanket and used it to wipe the paste off his body. Once he wiped the last bits of the paste off his chest, Yoze realized that a goat with long curly horns and blood-red eyes was staring at him with rapture.

"Hello, human fear not for I have heard your concerns. I am the one who took you here to take care of you. Fear not as I am not a human-eating witch but an innocent goat." The strange goat said with its mouth closed but Yoze could hear its words perfectly fine.

Yoze took a step back as he wasn't sure what this goat was. It didn't seem to be what he imagined a demon or monster to be. Neither did the goat seem to be an Immortal or a witch.

" What are you and why did you bring me here?"

"It's a bit rude to question your savior. I was just doing my duty of saving people when I saw you unconscious in the forest. I couldn't leave you there so I took you to my cabin and wrapped you up in my healing paste."

"Okay, but that doesn't answer the question of what you are, goats aren't supposed to talk."

"I don't know what I am but have felt the urge to be helpful ever since my inception, does that satisfy your questions?"

"No, not at all." Yoze shook his head in frustration before deciding to take the matter of finding this goat's secrets into his own hands.

"Target that goat. I will see for myself if you are telling the truth." Yoze thought to himself hoping to see if his cheat worked on animals.

"Ahh, I see a talented goat." Yoze was surprised to see that the strange goat was just a goat.

"From Leah Goat's talents, it seems to me that the reason for his uniqueness came from his talent in Spiritual Sensing. However, I am interested in Leah Goat's other Talents so I should keep him by myself until then." Yoze's eyes glowed as he stared at Leah with an equal amount of rapture as Leah to Yoze.

"First I'll copy Spiritual Sensing and see what it does."

As Yoze copied Leah Goat's talent in Spiritual Sensing he felt his mind relax allowing him to see more colors than he could before. Yoze also smelled a faint pleasant smell coming from... the smelly bowls of paste.

The change that Yoze felt was as intense as his other Talents but Spiritual Sensing had expanded his senses and he liked the feeling. After experiencing the charm of having Talents related to Spirituality, Yoze was even more determined to grab Leah Goat's remaining talents.

"I see that you must be quite talented in medicine. If you are interested in furthering your talent, you can come with me."

"Thank you for your interest human but I view this forest as my home. And since you are healed I will not stop you from leaving." Leah Goat's eyes twinkled as he spoke making him look more magical.

"Sigh, I didn't want it to come to this." Yoze sighed and shook his head in helplessness.

"Come to what?" Leah looked at Yoze with surprise before taking a few steps away from him.

"I view your talent in medicine too highly to give up this opportunity to learn from the best. Since you are forcing me to leave, I can only leave with you in hand." Yoze sighed again before bolting at Leah.

Before Leah could react he was seized by Yoze and lifted by Yoze like a baby.

"Have mercy, I just wanted to help. I will give you all the medicine I have created just let me go." Leah began to freak out and struggle out of Yoze's grasp.

Leah could have never imagined the human that he had helped out if pure kindness could have had such a tainted soul. To treat his benefactor with evil intent, Leah felt that he had been betrayed and his worldview of viewing everything with a good light had been shattered

"It's okay, don't struggle. I just want to learn from you for a few days or so before I let you go. "

Leah looked at Yoze's face which looked like he was being forced to do something he didn't want to do. Leah Goat had never been treated like this before, all the other humans he had helped with kindness in his heart all spoke of gratitude.

They even swore that they would never tell another soul of his existence for fear of attracting unwanted attention. That's how you repay kindness with goodness. Not kidnapping your benefactor and blaming them for their kidnapping.

Seeing that Yoze wasn't listening to reason, Leah struggled harder but found that he couldn't escape Yoze's hold. His attempt at escaping was on the same level as a baby trying to get out of their parent's hands. The difference in their strength was so wide that Leah had no chance to escape once he was caught.

He could only watch in helplessness as Yoze carried him out of the wooden cabin he called home and towards the city.
