BATTLE CRY'S

Lontara 53: Arak

"Hey, come on Uncle"

"Come on!"

Some Youth and other men coax Scar, They're all drunk. Then another young man came and curled Scar's head.

"Come on, Uncle can't beat me. I understand."

"What did you say!"

Scar immediately ignited his emotions, and Raiden only shook his head at the request of the residents. Scar finally got a drink at their table. While Raiden starts to find out information about the Sleepy Death Forest.

"Oh, sir wants to find information about that forbidden forest?" Said the old man Raiden asked.

"Yes, even a little bit"

"Hm, that forest actually has a lot of mysteries since few people dare to explore it. And also every one of those explorers disappeared without a trace in that forest."

Raiden was a little disappointed that he didn't get much information even though he didn't have much time, he would still enter the forest tomorrow.

"Oh, but there was an expedition a year ago. A Magician is hired to be a bodyguard but the 12 people sent missing include the Magician except for a young boy. When we found him he was already half-crazy, from then on no one dared to enter the forest."

Raiden stroked his chin, he could dig up information from the young man in question but when Raiden was about to ask a noisy voice sounded from the next table.

"Based on a rancid boy, you'll stumble first!"

"Hahaha, an old man like you won't be able to defeat me"

"You dare too, the loser has to be naked lohaha"

"Okay, I accept the old man challenge!!"

"All right, everyone tonight I'm buying!" shouted the young man

"Oouuuu!!" The visitors cheered.

Now Scar stood opposite to the young man, and many people surrounding them cheered him.

"Well, can you be young!"

"You're an old man too!"

It's been the eleventh glass but nothing has fallen yet. Scar himself has started to get a firefly. Then someone emerged from the stage a beautiful girl with a zither in her hand.

"Good night, visitors." The girl lowered her head.

"Uooh, it's Xuexue!" A visitor approached the stage.

"Hello, Sister Xue you look beautiful tonight!"

The beautiful woman named Xuexue was hailed by the visitors of the restaurant as well as this Bar.

"Well, if you want to know more, the girl's brother is the young man who survived the expedition."

"Ah, well thank you"

"Aha, no problem. How?. You drink tonight" the old man brought his wooden glass closer.

"All right, toast"

"Repeated"

Moments later the girl started playing her zither. The song played was again a quite famous one in this Kingdom. People began to sing discordant lyrics to accompany the music played while Scar was dizzy and he was only wearing his underwear While the young man before him was already completely naked.

"Look, you can't beat me young man, you don't wear anything anymore!, besides what the fuck is that?. Just toothpicks are bigger than yours"

"Heh, don't be happy old man. I still have the last defense"

Scar looked more carefully when looked closely then the young man wore a small hairpin near his ear. When I saw him, everyone laughed.

"What the hell is that!? you're acting pretty cool when you don't have a thread! I like your style young man bwahahaha!"

"The next round I'll make you naked old man. We'll fight this one!!"

The young man took out a pitcher from behind the table as the young man opened the lid to the strong smell of alcohol.

"What the fuck is that!"

"That's haram wine from the South, where he got it". People started to noisily look at the wine.

While Scar shakes his hand.

The illicit wine of the yoba house in the south was the most powerful artificial wine in the five kingdoms, one-third of a glass was enough to make heavy-duty drunks stifling. The young man smiled cynically.

"How is the old man?!, Continue?!"

"You think I'll be scared!!"

Eventually the two of them nearly fainted from just a quarter of a glass of the wine. Then the waiter came to Raiden with a panicked face.

"Sorry sir, there's something strange about this jug. We've filled a tank of cheap wine but it's gone unnoticed in this jug"

The waiter handed the jug over with trembling hands. Then Raiden explained if this jug is a special jug that can hold 500 liters of water in it.

"Oh so this master is a Magician?"

"Well, oh, here's the pay"

Raiden handed him two pieces of gold, but the waiter asked for a smaller fraction of the money because the price of one cheap wine tank was only 30 silver.

"Have it taken away, instead I'd like to book a two-bedroom stay for tonight"

"Alright, sir, I will do it" but before the servant leaves Raiden prevents him.

"And I want you to call Xuexue to my room after this" the maid immediately changed her countenance.

"Sorry sir, but Xuexue is not such a woman" the waiter was a little afraid of refusing Raiden's request considering Raiden was also a Magician.

The waiter lowered his head many times but Raiden only chuckled.

"No, it's not that I just want to talk" Raiden let out a warm smile

"But please be careful, the son of the richest merchant in the village is reported to like Xuexue.he harmed all the men who approached the girl."

"All right I understand, Thank you" Raiden nodded and the maid simply nodded and left.

Although here the village is quite friendly but the existence of Magicians seems to be a commonplace, considering usually the Magicians will act pretentious power. Raiden just shook his head and saw Scar who no longer had a thread lying on the chair, he saw the young man he was fighting standing on the table and raised both hands.

"I mem. hik hik. won.. hik" the young man's eyes were half closed. Standing naked while holding his wine glass.

Raiden Screamed softly as he sighed, it was hard to believe the truth if the naked sprawled man was a Three Star Wizard

"Rin you wait here, I'll bring Vena here"

The big cat shook his head while meowing.

"No, you can't come"

"Brach!" The cat nodded.

"Uh, you're so stubborn. You stay here so we can prepare to escape."

The cat shook his head twice while sniffing, Andros began to think this cat had a bit of a stubborn master trait.

"You will definitely make them suspicious and alert, let alone your large body size"

"Movie!" Rin meowed then immediately his body shrank to the size of an adult cat. Then it went inside Andros's shirt so that the young man looked like a blob.

The cat's head poked out of Andros's shirt and meowed.

"Huh, okay. Come on!"

Andros used the science of easing his body to move through the gaps of the guard and hide behind the rocks.

Due to the speed and lightness of the steps Andros easily entered the nest of the Silver Head Ant. But he met one obstacle, namely the forked road in this hallway.

Rin pokes out of the collar of Andros's shirt and starts sniffing, after a while Rin turns her head in one direction, making Andros think that this cat looks more like a dog.

Andros continued to walk inward, the deeper this passageway went down so Andros had to be careful not to fall and cause a commotion.

because along this hallway there are rocks that glow so he has no trouble walking.

The two of them finally reached a large room with unique carvings, this room was empty.

"It looks like the queen's room"

There was no sign of Veins but Rin did not show any direction anymore and just looked around before her eyes turned towards the empty throne on the steps of this room.

"It's weird, we're too easy to get in here"
