“Please give me some food, Megahead. I haven't eaten in two days.”
Alas, Megahead's expression remained detached.
“Buzz off. Why should I give you food when I can't even be sure I'd have enough food for myself? If you want food,
exchange it with spiritual water.”
Nonetheless, the pregnant woman continued pleading with tears streaming down her face, “Even if you don't pity
me, Megahead, have pity on the child in my belly. Never mind if I starve to death, but I hope my child will have a
chance to take a look at this world. I beg you.”
“No way!”
At that, the pregnant woman cried out in desperation, “This is your child, Megahead! You can't be so callous!”
“D*mn it!”
Blowing his top, Megahead sent her toppling to the ground with a kick.

you've been bedded by thousands and millions of men?”
Unwilling to give up, the pregnant woman continued beseeching, “I've only ever been intimate with you, Megahead,
so this child is really yours. If you turn a blind eye to me, you'll be killing your own child. That's a grievous sin. Please
give me a bun. Just one will do.”
Utterly irritated, Megahead suddenly whipped out a dagger and brandished it at the woman. “Scram. If you come
close to me again, I'll stab both you and your child.”
Fear struck the pregnant woman, and she glanced at him indignantly before retreating slowly.
Meanwhile, anguish washed over Zeke, and his heart clenched.
As a father, he couldn't bear to see the loss of an innocent life without doing anything.
Just as he was about to step forward, Hawkeye, who was beside him, held him back. “What are you trying to do?”
“Save her,” Zeke admitted.
At once, Hawkeye scoffed, “Don't be foolish. Even if you can save her this once, can you save her forever? Besides,
she's no decent woman. She's lazy and never does any work, merely trading her body for food. Now that the
harvest is poor, the men aren't taking her up on her offer anymore. That's why she ended up without any food.
Furthermore, she'll definitely pester you if you help her this time. Don't tell me you enjoy getting cuckolded, kid.
Haha!”
“The child in her belly is innocent,” Zeke maintained.
After saying that, he got up and went to the man who received four buns.
“Hello, please lend me a bun. I'll return you two tomorrow.”
The moment his words fell, shock deluged everyone there.
They all gaped at Zeke incredulously.
The man who received four buns was stunned as well. He studied Zeke suspiciously. “What did you just say?”
“I said to please lend me a bun. I'll return you two tomorrow,” Zeke repeated.

The man burst out laughing and waved a bun before him. “Kid, tell me what this is.”
“A bun,” Zeke replied.
“Nope! You're absolutely wrong. This is a life. It's my life! Do I think I'd lend you my life just because you asked me
to?” the man sneered.
Frowning, Zeke countered, “I've said that I'll return two buns to you tomorrow.”
How preposterous!
Still, the man refused to agree. “A rookie like you is bound to have nothing to show tomorrow. Yet, you're claiming
that you'll return me two buns. How are you going to do that? With your thick skin?”
Having run out of patience, Zeke simply snatched the bun out of his hand. “I'm a man of my word. If I can't return
two buns to you tomorrow, my life is yours.”
D*mn it!
The man flew into a rage when his bun was stolen. He shot to his feet and attacked Zeke.
However, it was impossible for him to injure the man with his mediocre capabilities.
Before his fist got anywhere near Zeke, the latter's fist had already landed on his stomach.
