THE REGRET OF PRINCE ZORO

Once upon a time, there lived a king named Asta. The king has a son named Prince Zoro.
Pince Zoro was very naughty and liked to throw food away.

When food was served at the dining table, Prince Zoro never ate the meal. "Daddy, I don't
want to eat this food. I want something new and tastier." said Prince Zoro. "Oh my son, this food
is not bad.” replied King Asta. "No, I do not want to eat!" Prince Zoro replied while throwing
the food into dump. The king replaced the food.

When Prince Zoro was 12 years old, King Asta celebrated it with a big party. Many cakes
and foods were served at the palace. However, prince Zoro only tasted a piece of cake and
ordered the royal officials to throw it away. "Oh my son, the cake is delicious" said King Asta.
"No dad, all the food in this palace should be thrown away because of its bad taste!" Prince Zoro
replied. King Asta ordered the royal officers to throw away the food and replace it with new
food.

One day the kingdom was hit by a long drought. Many people were starving including
King Asta, Queen, and Prince Zoro. "Daddy hold on, the food aid will be coming soon from the
neighboring kingdom." cried Prince Zoro. Unfortunately, King Asta died due to his bad
condition.

At the time Prince Zoro only had a mother beside him. He tried to strengthen the Queen.
"Oh my son, please make a ritual of apology to God. I'm sure this is because we often throw food
away." said the Queen. The Queen died. Prince Zoro cried all day long.

The next day Prince Zoro asked the royal officials to prepare a ritual event ordered by his
mother. Prince Zoro apologized to God and regretted all his actions. "Oh God, forgive me for
always wasting food from you. Please return our kingdom to the way it used to be" cried prince
Zoro.
 Finally, the kingdom returned to fertile. But, Prince Zoro was still saddened by the loss of
his father and mother. Prince Zoro lived with regret until the end of his life.
