BEHOLD, THE EMO CAVE

[chalicejoker]

So it wasn't unheard of for the Cursed Knight to go out looking for trouble questing for new challenges to overcome. Several of the townspeople had figured this out. And why, when one of them mentioned that there was a cave with the strongest enemy Hajime could or would ever face, Hajime went charging off in there...

...and then got stuck because turns out the cave fed off of dark emotions and was some sort of test, and it's not like Hajime was great at dealing with that by himself.
