Long ago in a village named Harmony town, once took place a cycle race. Every competitor was the best, so none could be told better than the other. The winner was to be given a golden trophy. Among them, was a rival named Oliver. He was the only participant who was weak at cycling but he had a great heart. He was immensely frightened on the day of the race. After every competitor's arrival, the cycle race was finally initiated. Every cyclist speeded at a great pace except Oliver. He was slow and remained alone at the last position. After a while, he came upon a dense forest. He crossed it halfway, trembling with fear. Just when he was beginning to feel relief, he heard a loud painful trumpet of an elephant. He was scared again but was curious too. So out of curiosity, he went in the direction of the sound and heard it again. He found out that it was a young elephant in pain due to being bound by a metal chain. Having a good heart, he shook off his fear, took a hammer, and broke off the chain. The elephant was filled with joy and bowed to him as if thanking him. A villager had seen this and detailed the same to the organizer of the cycle race. He was extremely surprised and influenced by this great fearful feat of Oliver. Thus, when the race reached its conclusion, he announced Oliver as the winner of the race due to his significant action and awarded him with the golden trophy.
