The Thief, The Priest And The Demon

In a village used to live a priest named Ram. He was very poor to the point that he had no clothes to wear and no food to eat. The priest somehow used to manage to eat little food from the offerings he used to receive. After seeing his conditions a man felt bad for him. In order to help the priest he decided to provide him with a pair of buffalos.

After thinking of the pair of buffalos as a grace he started serving the buffalos with full diligence. He used to love the buffalos so much that he used to eat less, but used to feed the buffalos fully. After having being served by the priest for a longtime the buffalos were once again healthy. But one day a thief placed his eyes on the two buffalos and he started thinking of ways to steal the pair of buffalos.

After thinking of various plans during night the thief decided to go to the priest's house to steal his buffalos. But on his way their the thief met a vicious demon. The demon asked the thief," Where are you going so late at night?" the thief replied with." I am going to the priest's house to steal his buffalos (and sell them). After listening to the thief the demon said," Come on, I will go with you as well. I am hungry for a few days now. I will eat the priest to suffice my hunger and you can take the chance to take his buffalos."

The thief thought that there will be someone for the way to go together, so there is no problem to take him with me. After thinking this the thief took the demon and reached outside the priest's house.

After reaching the priest's house, the demon said," First let me eat the priest and then you can take his buffalos with you." The thief said," No, first I will steal the buffalos and then you will eat the priest. If because of your attack the priest wakes up, I will not be able to steal the buffalos."

The demon and thief had a long argument like this. No one was ready to listen to each other. The priest woke up after listening the demon and thief argue. After seeing the priest awake the thief shouted," Listen priest, this demon is here to eat you. He has tried to eat you several times but I always stopped him."

After listening to the thief the the demon also shouted," No priest, I didn't came to eat you, instead I came to protect your buffalos." After listening to the two the priest had suspected something was wrong. After sensing the danger the priest quickly picked up the nearby staff and chased the two of them away.
