Description:		Translation (Rita Seng Mai) Once upon a time, there was a couple in a village. The husband was a coward. And there was a cruel lion in a forest near their village too. All the villagers had to live in fear. One night, the couple built a fire camp outside their house and sat beside it. They grilled some pounded steamed rice and ate that. While they were doing that, the lion came there because it saw the smoke. As soon as the husband saw that the lion was coming near them, he was scared and quickly went inside the house. He locked the house and stayed there alone. He shouted, "My wife, you dare to stay there! You want to be the meal for the lion, huh?" He was sneakily looking at his wife and the lion from the house. The wife was so scared too. She was just standing there by holding a knife. She was shaking. When the lion jumped on her, it was stabbed in the abdomen. The lion died just right there. When the husband saw that, he came out and asked his wife, "Is it still alive?" His wife answered, "No, it's dead." He said, "When the villagers ask 'who killed that lion', let's say I killed it. No one will believe if we say that you killed the lion." His wife said, "But you didn't kill it! How could we say like that?" But he said, "If we say that a woman like you killed the lion, my pride is hurt. So, let's say I killed it. Alright?" They agreed to say like that. The next morning, he told all the villagers that he killed the lion. That news was spread. Then, the King from the other country was happy when he heard that news. The King let his servants to call the man who killed the lion. He said to his servants, "Call him!" And he sent the message, "There is a scary crocodile in the river where I usually take a bath. If you could kill that crocodile, I will let you rule half of my country." Then, the servants went to the couple. When they reached at the couple's house, the husband was scared because he was not the one who killed the lion. He was so frightened. His wife said, "My husband, they came to call you. Go with them." He went together with the servants although he was very frightened. Then the next day, he had to kill the crocodile. All of the King's servants took spears. And some steered the boat. Then, he and the King's servants went to the river to kill the crocodile. They saw that the crocodile was jumping and swimming in the water fiercely. The man was so scared and shaking when he saw that. He was just sitting in the middle of the boat without controlling anything. The servants were eaten by the crocodile one by one. Then, they had to fight the crocodile not to get eaten. They stabbed in the crocodile's head with spears. So, the crocodile was dead. The man didn't kill the crocodile. Actually, the servants killed it. But he was the one who got good name since the crocodile was dead. The King really gave half of the country to him and let him rule it. Actually, he was a coward. But he could spend his life happily with the help of the others.
