I retracted the fruit away from the little boy and looked at who called.
It was an emaciated woman with a concerned expression on her face, reaching out to her sound like a monster was about to eat him.
...Which was quite offensive, since I would have to be the monster in that situation.
Regardless, I gave a small wave and smiled.
"Hello. Why don't you want your son to have a little snack?"
The woman looked at me in fear.
"G-Get away from my son!"
I raised my hands and took a few steps back.
"Ok, ok!"
The man with the twig crown looked uncomfortable watching this situation.
"Madam. Please do not antagonize this man. He is not a monster, but a savior of the village."
The woman looked towards him and proceeded to freak out.
"Oh no! The monsters are able to disguise themselves as the chieftain? I have to warn everybody when I can!"
