One day, Agenga was sitting and conversing with the King. The King said, “You can’t befool me. If you succeed, I promise I’ll give you my gun.” Late afternoon, the King went to hunt in the forest. Agenga went in the opposite direction. He kept a watch on the King and pretended to be the honey bird, which leads people to honey. As the King came closer, Agenga took out the sound of the bird. Now, the King started searching for honey without noticing Agenga. Suddenly, the King fell into a thorn bush where Agenga was hiding. Then, Agenga came out and revealed himself. He said, “It wasn’t the honey bird. It was I. I befooled you. Give me your gun.” The King agreed that he was befooled. Now, they decided to go to the elders to judge. The King said, “He tricked me, and as promised I will give him my gun.” The elders decided in Agenga’s favour. Agenga was delighted and took the gun.
