[ Truth be told, Kangwoo is still having second thoughts about this whole relationship. His millennia-long imprisonment in hell has taught him not to trust non-human entities, and it is this deeply-seated prejudice which causes him to think that maybe, just maybe, it'd be better off to just ghost Hazel like a total asshole. At least then the King of Predation wouldn't be tempted to slaughter and then consume her, just as he's done in the past with countless monsters.

Fortunately, these macabre thoughts are cast to the wayside, as he enjoys his drive up the mountains. The lush greenery and fresh air do wonders for his mood, and he finds himself still smiling as he steps out of his car (a G-Wagen, a.k.a. the Chariot of Karens) and makes his way to the front door of Hazel's cottage. He knocks, waits for her to answer and-- ]


...!

[ 'Dayum,' is all he can think as soon as he lays his eyes on her. She's looking fine as hell, brah, and suddenly Kangwoo is glad that he'd decided to rock an indigo denim shirt over his plain white tee instead of the old baggy black hoodie he was contemplating. A pair of loose olive cargo pants and white sneakers complete his casual ensemble. ]

... Hello, Hazel. [ He manages to establish proper eye contact when he greets her, deliberately averting his gaze from her tight little body. ] You look nice this evening.

[ Clearing his throat awkwardly, he steps inside her cozy home, one hand carrying a carton of Hite Queen's Ale, and a ribboned cake box in the other.

It should be noted that he'd also bothered to put on a bit of cologne, since he smells pretty good, like wood and spices. Dior Homme Eau de Toilette for those curious, and it's not like he'd picked it out himself-- it was a sample that was included in the luxurious gift box he'd received from his guild upon becoming a member. ]

[ The cake and sixpack are set down on the coffee table, right next to the sandwich which the gluttonous king eyes with interest. It looks positively scrumptious, and he cannot wait to wrap his lips around it and get it deep inside him (wait, what?).

As for her question, he is reminded of a certain nugget of wisdom he learned back in college. "Beer before wine and you'll feel fine."

Or was it, "Wine before beer, never fear"? ]


... Fuck it, let's just start with the wine first.

[ Without warning or compunction, Kangwoo boldly sets a calloused hand on Hazel's dainty shoulder, coaxing her a few steps back from the table. After removing the bottle of wine from the bucket of ice and then placing it on the table, the King of Blood and Slaughter rolls up his sleeve and casually activates 「Authority of the Blade」, manifesting a curved, organic-looking sword which juts out from his exposed forearm.

In one swift, effortless motion, he slashes through the bottle, yet it doesn't budge at all or cause a single spill or mess. The demonic blade on his arm disappears and Kangwoo lifts the in-tact neck of the bottle, providing easy access to the delicious nectar within, all without having to remove the cork. ]


There you go, all set.

[ Meanwhile, Hazel's corkscrew sits upon the table, unused and forgotten. ]

[ 'What a shitty power,' thinks Kangwoo, who fortunately keeps his rude thoughts to himself, even as he gladly takes the offered wineglass. ]

Thank you. [ He takes his first slow sip of Cabernet Sauvignon, enjoying its full-bodied taste and fruity aroma. Unable to resist any longer, he plucks the sandwich from its plate with his free hand, and wastes no time sinking his fanged teeth into that bready, meaty goodness. ]

... Mmm! Mmm, mmm, mmm! [ Beaming like a child on Christmas morning, the Ruler of the Hell of Nine Skies happily proclaims, mouth full and cheek bulging: ] Shoooooo good!!

[ It's pretty much his dream sandwich: fresh lettuce, two slices of tomato, perfectly salty and savory Capicola, hot mustard, all between nice, big slices of his favorite sourdough. Hazel's undoubtedly done a bang-up job!

She's done so well, in fact, that Kangwoo cannot contain himself. Gluttony happens to be his defining trait, and it is evident in the way he seems to devolve before Hazel's very eyes, not bothering to savor or even really taste the sandwich which he proceeds to gobble up in record time. ]
