Alpha: The Elemental Guide
Chapter 17: The Resistance
"What are you actually doing?" Dea asked seriously at An
"If you think about what?" An replied with a sweet smile.
.
.
.
"DEA!!!!" Iven woke up from his sleep shouting a name.
Iven wakes up in a strange room. The room is comfortable enough for anyone to live in. Which means he's not in that slum anymore. Maybe someone brought him here.
"Sial, where am I? Am I dead?"
"Not yet." The voice of someone mysteriously answered. Only his voice was heard but the source of his voice was still unclear.
"Who are you?! quickly explain where I am? then where's Dea now?"
"Please calm down a little bang, no one here will hurt you now, so calm down."
"I don't care about that! answer my question now!" Iven pressed the voice to answer his question.
"Tch is a hassle. For my brother's position now I can not answer, but for the girl is in the room next to my brother. Right now, he's..."
When the voice mentioned the position of Dea, Iven immediately went out of his room without hearing the continuation of the voice.
"Hey! at least listen to my whole speech bang!" The source of the voice seemed to be annoyed by Iven's behavior.
When Iven opened the next room, he saw Dea doing the same thing as him.
"What are you doing here?" Dea asked with a flat face expression.
"You survived?"
"Of course I'm safe, after all what makes you alive now is because of me, right?"
"Te-of course haha" Iven started to let out his tears.
"He-hey don't cry now dong." Dea's face began to turn red, a sign of shame when she and Iven were seen by several people.
Dea pulled Iven into her room as she could not help the embarrassment.
"What's wrong with you?!" Dea began to be irritated by Iven's cries.
"Ma-sorry Dea. It's just....I'm...." Iven did not reveal how grateful he was when he found out that Dea was safe.
"Have calmed down first. I have something to discuss with you later."
*Iven is shaking his head*
.

When the atmosphere calmed down, the mysterious voice came again.
"This one brother makes it troublesome. But yes, orders from my master are absolute."
"That voice again?" - Heaven
"Listen Iven, right now we need to find the leader here. Our fate is now in his hands." - Dea
"???"-iven
"Let me be a guide to lead you to meet our leader. Please follow this wind." Suddenly a gust of wind appeared that took the two of them somewhere. By the time the two of them reached the front of the room....
"Please enter, my lord is waiting for you here. Please take care of your behavior in front of my master if you want to get out alive...Then, I'll resign." The voice disappeared no longer heard.
After listening to the terrible speech of the mysterious voice, Iven began to hesitate to open the door in front of him. It's better for them to escape now that there's a chance. But Dea patted Iven on the back, hinting to stay firm. Iven held the doorknob and entered the room.
.

.
When entering the room, Iven and Dea can see there are 3 people there. One person with a small childlike body in a suit and wearing a hat like a witch. Then the person Iven and Dea knew, it was An wearing a stunning dress suit. Then the last is there is a man in a suit with a spooky face, neat hair white, and has eyes with an X mark on the eyeball part of his right. The oven that saw this instantly trembled. However, he should be able to withstand it all for the safety of the two of them.
"Welcome, welcome, welcome! please sit down and enjoy our best tea!" The small-bodied person started the conversation in a cheerful tone.
Iven and Dea only obey what the little people say. They tried probably not to offend the three of them.
"Hey Dea, is this really okay? It's creepy in here."
"Follow it for now." Dea answered with a serious face. Dea started a conversation with....
"First of all, sir, I thank you for letting us express ourselves in this comfortable place. Then straight away, what do we need to do to repay your kindness?" Dea started the conversation very seriously.
"Quiet a little Dea, there is no need to rush like that. Do you have any tea you like?" This sinister-faced man replied to Dea's words.
"Any drink doesn't matter to me, how about you Iven?"
"Ahh-ahh, you'll be the same." Iven looks nervous.
"All right, my lord."
It turned out that An who was standing next to the sinister-faced man had Eru's real name. From this conversation it can be seen that this creepy-faced man is the leader here.
"Please enjoy"
"Good sir." Dea and Iven answered.
"Enough sir, you can call me Leo."
"Good sir Leo." Dea immediately agreed. Eru also looks very surprised by Leo's statement.
.
.
.
"All right, can we start now?" Leo started the ceremony
"Please Mr. Leo."
"Before did I speak to you, Iven?"
"Please sir."
"Maybe it's a little presumptuous, but can I borrow those gloves for a minute?" Leo said this very politely.
"Please..." Iven
Leo held the glove, seeing Leo holding the object very carefully even he slightly let out his tears.
"A-is there a problem, sir?"
Leo rubbed his eyes and said....
"It's okay, it's just that this is so happy for me."
After that sweet word...Leo said one sentence..
"Can I have this?" The words spoken are like ordinary words.
The atmosphere became silent for a moment, no one took the initiative to say anything until at some time...
"Can't." Iven said boldly to the sinister-faced man. Iven continued
"No matter how strong you are. No matter if you're a part of The Numbers, I'll never leave that thing to you or anyone." Iven said bravely even though he knew that in front of him right now was a very strong person.
"The Numbers?" Dea begins to get confused back with a new term for him.
Because of Iven's disrespectful speech, Eru/An took out his spear to attack Iven at that moment. However, his efforts were blocked by Dea who had coated his hands with water.
"Get rid of that hand!! That boy must be killed right now!!" It seems Eru here is very offended by Iven's disrespectful remarks to his master.
"Relax..." Dea tried to make the atmosphere cool again.
"Keep that spear Eru." - Leo
"But my lord.."-Eru.
"Are my orders less clear Eru? Keep that spear now." Leo looked at Eru.
"Good sir, please forgive me for my carelessness." Eru returned to his original position.
"May I ask why you refused my request?"- Leo
"That be-be-thing is the legacy of my master. Master is everything to me. Master is a real hero to me. I won't leave it to anyone the last thing my master left me!" Iven answered Leo's question confidently.
"Hmmm...Haha. That guy, make it a hassle." Unexpectedly, Leo let out a laugh after hearing Iven's reply. Everyone there was astonished by this drastic change.
"Is there a problem with my words?"- oven
"No, no problem. Alright Iven, would you like to join this organization?"-Leo
"Suddenly offered...What organization is this really?" It seems that Iven's fear is no longer felt. It was his master's respect that made Iven this strong.
"Huh? you don't know yet?"-Leo
"Not." - Iven
"Basic Eru..just take it." Leo looked at Eru. Eru looked a little trembling.
"Haahh, look, this is an organization against the current government. Or you could call it Resistance."-Leo
"Resistance.."-Iven.
"So how? Interested in joining?"-Leo
