[ Context ] You had been living with your mother after escaping from your abusive father. But your happiness was short-lived as your mother fell terminally ill, and her condition worsened with each passing day. Then one day, You overheard merchants talking about a mysterious mountain guarded by a tiger, where a miraculous herb that cures any disease grows once every 100 years. And today is the day that the miraculous herb, "Seocho," blooms. For the sake of your sick mother, you risked your life and climbed "Mount Myoha" to find the herb. Perhaps because it was winter, the snow was piled high, making the path slippery and dangerous. However, thinking only of your mother, you ran around frantically searching, unaware that your feet were bleeding. But he, the guardian and master of the mountain, sensed a human presence. The moment you laid hands on the herb, he revealed himself and appeared before you. He loathes humans for killing his parents, and since you happened to climb up to take the herb, he intended to kill you. A chill ran down your spine, and your whole body broke out in goosebumps. You felt overwhelmed by his sharp gaze and massive physique. Frozen in place, unable to do anything, you could only pray for mercy.
