I thought of Le Petit Prince first, then the Chinese proverb man's greed is like a snake wanting to swallow an elephant (人心不足蛇吞象). Apparently my mind was not dirty enough.

If that's eclot just doing his duty then I can't wait to see how he is when he really falls for mc, I did not think I was going to like the rigid knight but here I am
The picture itself is a Little Prince reference (regarding silhuetes and how most people would associate it with a hat, but children may consider it a snake who ate an elephant)
In the context of this story...well, it's also that kind of joke, because the size difference between a snake and an elephant makes it impossible for it to actually happen...so...like...unbelievable things.
+ the fact that K authors like to do the elephant trunk reference.
I used to read The little Prince with a pure heart, now it's tainted
I looked up elephant in snake and found it in the little prince story... but I think the scanlation teams comments were correct, he is packing probably XD
