Alpha: The Elemental Guide
Chapter 10: A Promise
"Can we talk for a minute?"
It is clear that Resa does not agree with Dea's departure.
"Recomm...."
"Don't tell me you're just gonna leave?"
"Recipes...It's all too late. Although I actually want to stay longer in this village, I need to make amends for this."
"What about your mother?"
"Mother.yes even if there is a bit of conflict, but.."
"HAVE YOU NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT YOUR MOTHER'S FEELINGS!? ARE YOU AWARE OF WHAT YOU'RE DOING?"
"I know.I know. But how else. I gotta get out of here. There's no other way."
"If so, stay with me. You also know that the house is on the outer side of the village."
"Recipes.."
"Or at least let me come with you. Adventure with you..." Resa pleaded to Dea while starting to shed a few tears.
"Resa, you know you can't do that. You are the future of this village. Everyone expects a lot of you. Me, your parents, and the rest of the citizens are hoping for you. We all believe that you can lead this village in a better direction. Your mother and father who raised you lovingly, patiently, and proudly, I do not want to take anything of value from them. "
"Fix, with you gone, I won't be able to...."
*Dea suddenly embraced Resa.*
"I know that you are strong Resa, stronger than anyone I know. I know you can overcome all obstacles. Even if it is impossible."
"Stupid..Such sweet words will not make me lu.lu.lu.luh." Resa began to have difficulty speaking. His tears have disturbed his senses, he said.
"I know just losing one of your friends is easy for you. You will find a better friend than me. Friends who won't make a fuss all the time. Friends who won't worry you all the time. And a friend who will always be for you. I believe you'll definitely find that person."
"..."- ".Resa tried as hard as possible to shed tears. He did not want his best friend to see his weak side again.
Dea pulled her body and the two friends looked at each other.
"Resa, believe me I'll be fine. Believe me, this farewell is only temporary. Believe me, I will return to this village. So, wait patiently and change this village for me!" Dea said with a confident face.
"Ha,ha,ha....You are a friend who always bothers. All right, I believe you! Go back to the village when you have become the strongest! don't be disappointed I'm back anyway."Resa said her eyes, to wipe her tears.
"For sure! and also please take care of my mother..."
At that moment of separation, the master's subordinates were dias, seeing that Dea was still around the village. That person was a very trusted person master Dias. He is named Kai, has mastered PATL eloquently, so that his abilities are already at the highest level. Currently, he was assigned to patrol around the village to make sure Dea and Raiden had already left the village. Dea is still in the village.
"Hey, why are you still here!"
"Dea, run!!!" (Resa)
Dea, who heard Resa's words, quickly used the water covering her legs to make her go faster. Dea immediately ran away from the place.
"I won't let it!"
A high-density whirlpool was heading towards Dea quickly. Dea, who was only focused on his escape, was unaware of the attack. However, the attack was repelled with a thick wall of ice.
"That ability?...Hahahaha it turns out that the talented kid helped the kid escape huh?"
"I won't allow you to touch Dea in the slightest!"
"Hahahaha, let's see who's more among us!"
"Come!"

On the other hand, Dea, who was outside the village, paused for a moment to replenish his strength.
"That guy's not after me anymore?"
Dea returns to meet Raiden. Dea had spent all her strength to escape, so at this moment, she could only walk for her journey.
Eventually, Dea is able to return to meet Raiden. Clearly, Dea was already very exhausted. And look, Raiden is tired of waiting.
"Take off!! You're late Dea!!"
"Sorry uncle, there's a little problem there."
"Bahh! you brat.."
"Haha...."
"Here you go, we're out of here in 1 hour."
"Sa..An hour? Didn't you see that I'm exhausted right now?"
"It was because of your own fault. 1 Hour is enough."
"Ba.baik uncle..."
.
The time of rest was put to the best use of Dea. Using such an 'Life' excessively would obviously take at least a day to recover. However, since master Dias sent his men to patrol the village, the two of them had to leave immediately. Preparations during the trip will also be very little for now. Only a few kinds of food Raiden had collected, as Dea fainted after a sparring practice.
An hour passed. Raiden and Dea have left the area around Watah Village. Dea was still tired, but he forced himself to walk.
"Hey uncle, where are we going right now?"
"Not knowing."
"Ti.don't know?"
"Yes, right now we're just someone who doesn't have a home."
"Keep, if you don't know the purpose, are you just going to walk straight ahead?"
"true."
"Why not just go to the nearest village, or even the nearest country."
" First, the other villages also do not accept foreigners, just like your village. Second, we are criminals now."
"Criminal?"
"A village that has strong ties to the whole country, by violating the rules of that village, we will definitely be labeled as a criminal."
"Aren't we just not allowed to settle down in the village? why are we being criminals?"
"His covenant is like that, but it won't be that easy with the man named Dias."
"What happened to Master Dias?"
" That's it, not a lot of boy..."
"Boy, boy continues. I have a name. Uncle remind me of my name!?"
"Lu is not worth mentioning by name with your current abilities."
"What!! Erghhh.. I'll make uncle say my name, so just wait!"
"It's up to you."
Afterwards, Dea and Raiden's uncle chatted for a while while on the road. While on this journey, Raiden trained very hard. Several times, Raiden even told Dea to defeat a monster stronger than Dea back then. Raiden optimistically, can guide his student to become the strongest warrior. Although in the future there will be many obstacles that block, the story of Dea's journey to become the strongest soldier will continue.
