Chapter 1. I Want Your House Perk!

Her long ears, which were sticking out on top of her head, turned towards the direction of the sound.

“What’s that sound?”

Her pert nose sniffed quickly. Her head turned upward at the same time as her pitch-black eyes.

“…Mountain?”

Behind the villa where she lived, there is an uninhabited mountain. Something was strange. Her small nose felt ominous and kept twitching.

Thump! Thump!

The sound of the mountain shaking could be heard several more times after that. She couldn’t help but feel uneasy, living in the villa right in front of the mountain.

“What should I do… Should I go?”

Unfortunately, there was no one to go with her.

A loner, Eliza. The seventh daughter of the rabbit lord who no one cared about. Those were the words used to describe her. After her mother, who was her only ally, passed away, she chose to live alone in the villa.

Giving up on the succession and living alone. It was also the only way to protect herself from her numerous brothers and sisters. Eliza had no money or relatives. All she had was a bloodline. Left alone, it was the only way she could protect herself.

Bullying was possible only if she stuck out like a sore thumb. She had long since given up on receiving love from her father.

In fact, the bullying had largely disappeared since she moved to the villa. As expected, actions speak louder than words. Her clear action of giving up her position as successor extended her lifeline.

Thump!

Eliza jumped in surprise at the sound that shook the ground. Despite the commotion, the castle was silent.

“Don’t the people living in the castle have ears?”

How could she stay still despite this commotion? Eliza shook her head. If the noise grew louder, it seemed like the villa would be affected.

“I’m just going to see what’s going on. Eliza, you’re just going to see what’s going on.”

Eliza muttered and picked up the wooden stick that was lying next to the door. It was a thin, slender branch, but for the small rabbit, it was a pretty big weapon.

She needs to bring a weapon. The rabbit opened the villa door and took her first step. Her round feet stepped on the grass.

The mountain behind the villa was like Eliza’s playground. It was the mountain she used to go to when she was bored, to get something to eat. She climbed up the rocks with light steps, jumping up and down.

Up until the middle of the mountain, it was the usual mountain she knew. However, the moment she stepped deep, her body stiffened at the debris that her feet stepped on.

‘This is… a carriage mark?’

It wasn’t just a carriage. Blood was scattered around. And the footprints that filled the ground. Eliza’s face turned blue as she became certain that it wasn’t just a simple commotion.

Rustle.

“What, what is it!”

The rabbit, frightened by even a small sound, quickly hid behind a tree. Peeking out from behind a thick pillar, she looked around carefully.

“…A tiger?”

It wasn’t an ordinary tiger, either. A pitch-black figure she had never heard of stretched out before her eyes.

“…Is it dead?”

When the tiger didn’t move at all, she became bold and poked it with the branch she was holding.

“Gasp!”

Startled by the sudden twitching, the rabbit quickly ran away, throwing away the branch.

‘It’s not dead. It’s not dead!’

If that huge predator came to its senses, she would be nothing more than a snack. Should she run down the mountain right now? What if it followed her to the villa?

The rabbit, who had been trembling, realized that it was too quiet and carefully turned its head.

“…….!”

Contrary to the thought that it would reveal its large teeth and devour him, the tiger was still lying on the ground. Was that all? Eliza slowly sniffed at the faint but painful sound.

‘Ah.’

The smell of blood that had been stinging her nose wasn’t limited to the ground. The wound on his leg was emitting a strong smell of blood.

“…Excuse me. Are you okay?”

Eliza mustered up her courage and spoke, but there was still no answer from the tiger. The irregular, raspy breathing created a small wind of dust.

“If I don’t treat it, it’s going to be a big problem…….”

Heuk. Eliza quickly shook her head at her thoughtless muttering.

It’s hard to take care of even her own body, so how could she bring a predator to treat it? It was clear that sbe was crazy.

‘What if I’m his meal in return for treating him?’

Of course, predators do not eat indiscriminately. Those blessed by God saw other animals as a community of their own, even if they were species in the food chain.

Most of them respected each other and actively interacted with each other.

“But… some of them still follow the old customs.”

She heard that some predators eat them regardless of whether they are blessed or not. When she thought about that, the teeth in front of her looked even sharper.

It would be right to just leave him like this. Her life is more important than saving someone she didn’t even know.

“…Uuuh!”

She shouldn’t have found him.

She shouldn’t have come up out of curiosity.

Eliza grumbled and slowly raised her forelegs. At that moment, smooth fingers replaced the fluffy fur.

In just a few seconds, she turned into a human with long, pink hair and pouted her lips.

“If I had known this would happen, I would have brought clothes.”
