......Seventh Century...
At that time, after such a rapid and mysterious turn of time, I was in a land of dispute. A expanse of grassland that stretched from every eye looked on looked so beautiful. As well as the sound of grass friction and the chirping of the birds there, they make the nuances of nature become stronger.
“So this is the scene of the seventh century which was right before the final war?” I was amazed to see that sight.
Then, according to what Creator has told you before, for now maybe my task has no room to begin.
Therefore I went down the plains to look for signs of life from the humans in the field.
Walking on the expanse of grassland that wide, just befriending the sound of nature does feel soothing, but there is something that so stuck in my heart. A feeling that was hard to understand, it felt like it was filled with worry, fear, or something like that. But I do not know the origin of this feeling at all.
I also faced this face towards the sky in search of answers. But what is seen there is only an endless void and what is up there is also absolutely no one knows it, but maybe it is also the same as the existence of this world.
“What an ironic thing.”
I continued my steps that had stopped in the meadow. Then the further I went, the more I arrived at the most beautiful part of the vast expanse of grassland. There was a crowd of flowers so many scattered with each other in the wind. There is also a small river nearby that becomes one of the sources of life for the flowers.
“River.., means there will be a water source near here.”
I started rushing to the river because I thought there would be a human settlement there. Then, more or less the same as I thought, I saw a boy about 10 years old in the valley where the river was flowing. He seemed to be looking for something by the river.
“Anu...” I also tried to greet him.
“Huwahh!!”
Byurrs....
She was blown away, I really didn't expect that she would be shocked like that by my presence there.
“Ampuni me, I promise not to take the fish in this river secretly again, therefore forgive me I am the keeper of the valley!” the child who looked soaked was pleading for forgiveness so comically before me.
“Eh.., looks like you're a little misunderstood. Look, I'm not the guardian of the valley!”
He raised his head to look at me at the river.
“Beauty!” the words came out unintentionally from the boy's mouth.
Perhaps it was quite reminiscent of an incident in the previous master's life, precisely when he met the older brother. He also had time to do something similar with this boy, then if it was not wrong the brother answered him like this.
“Heh.., turns out you're good at teasing a girl huh?
“Uh, ma'am-not like that I mean sis, I didn't mean to tease you!” He was so wrong when he heard those words from me.
“Hahaha, that reaction is really similar to him.” For the first time I laughed because I felt the pleasure that came from myself. On the other hand, the boy seemed so embarrassed to feel that he was being played by me.
“Ehm, sorry I didn't intend to play you, are you from a human village near here?”
“Ah, lest big sister get lost?”
“You can say that, because of that are you willing to help this sister?”
“Of course, because it is the duty of a man to protect the girls! Less is more so my father taught me.”
“Your father seems like a strong man yes to you!” I stretched out my hand to help the boy out of the river.
“Ahaha, more or less so. When I was young people said that he liked to fight and make women fight for him. But ever since she married my mother, she seems to have turned into such an important person in the security of our village.”
We started walking towards the village while talking at length.
“By the way I'm May, can I know what your name is?”
“I Ren. Oh yeah, how did you get lost to this place? Which village is she from?”
“Which village.., are there so many villages here?”
“Of course there are many, even my father said some villages of which there are not human villages loh.”
“Heh.., so huh? But I'm not from any village loh.”
“Not coming from any village, what does that mean?”
“Oh, about that the story is quite long. Maybe next time I'll tell you!”
“Heh... stingy!”
“Ahaha, it is not so. when there is a right time I will tell you. Then I also have a lot to tell you!”
“Heh.., big brother seriously? Then you must promise to tell me all that!”
I only smiled when I heard Ren's words and did not feel after the conversation between the two of us in the middle of the journey, we had arrived in the village when the day began to evening. There are also seen some of the villagers are pacing around like confusion looking for something.
“We have reached my brother, here is the village where I live!” it was obviously Ren who was walking in front of me.
“Iya.” I answered while following his small steps.
From the settlement, those confused looking people started to come to the two of us who had just come out of the valley.
“That's Ren, she's back safely.”
“That child, why always make us so worried.”
“Ren..!!” It was the cry of a little girl who seemed to be waving her hand to greet Ren's arrival.
“Ren.., I told you not to go in soft again alone right!” scold one of the men who was there.
“Sorry uncle, I won't repeat it again.”
“Good if it is like that. By the way who is this girl?” ask the man.
“I May, I just happened to see this boy, I mean this Ren is falling into that river, so I tried to help him.”
..
“Hey look, the girl is beautiful once!”
“Then, that hair color, what is original?”
“See it, but it looks like she's no ordinary girl!”
Their conversation I could hear so clearly, though somewhat disturbed, but I tried to ignore it.
“Uncle, can we not allow this brother to stay temporarily in this village?”
“If it is, only the village chief can determine it.”
“If for example there are regulations in the village that strictly prohibit it then you do not need to bother.”
“But it's already evening, it would be very dangerous to travel out there, especially for a girl.”
Tek, tek, tek...
A sound of footsteps approached us who were talking about a plan to stay here.
“Stay while here son, lately there are various creepy auras in the forest after this village. We also still do not know what exactly is going on there.” That is the head of this village.
He looked quite old when viewed from his hair and skin, but from his posture it seemed like he was no ordinary person.
“You came the village head.” Greet the man to the village chief.
I also nodded my head to greet the village chief.
“Grandfather Ji, this brother is fine even though he stayed here more than last night!”
“If it depends on whether this lady will not stay here Ren, and not you decide.”
“Eh.. Brother, are you going to leave tomorrow?”
“For now that I still don't have a destination, I guess I'll stay here for a while.”
“I told you it's cake, if brother will definitely stay.”
“Hahaha, then,”—The grandfather waved his hand at the little girl who greeted Ren earlier—“Lisa, take this brother to your house, let him use the empty room to stay temporarily.”
“Ah, fine.” This little girl took my hand as if I were the one who was the little kid here.
“Ren, why are you also coming with us?”
“Eh, can't I come?”
“Hmm, you really don't understand the busyness of the girls.” Beware this girl to Ren.
“Heh..? What are you going to do?”
“Declaration, hihi.” The girl again led me to go to her house and left Ren who looked confused.
“We have arrived, this is the village chief's grandfather's house. Then for brother, because will stay in this place, then sister can use this room.”
“Large also yes.”
“Put your stuff there first, brother, for now come with me. I'll show you the most comfortable place in this house is jam this way.”
The girl also asked me out through the back door, there seemed a rather spacious building with a slightly billowing smoke kept popping up. Since it made me a little curious, I also tried to ask the girl.
“That place, what exactly?”
“It was a bathing place for the women of this village.”
“Then, smoke it?”
“Oh, that's because the one there is a hot spring, so it will cause steam like that. Don't-don't you, sister never been to the hot spring?”
“Ugh.., b-not like that, it's just that this is a little different from what I know.” This girl, even though she looks cute somehow her words are so sharp.
“Different, what kind of hot spring that you know?”
“Source of hot water that is near the crater of the mountains, only that which I know. So I didn't expect that there would be a place like this.”
“Heh... it seems exciting, what can I see sometime like that?”
“Of course, no one knows the future right?”
“It was also true. Then, now let's go in!”
Again he took my hand so we could get there faster. But I just realized that I should be a man. But since my memories and master were mixed into one, it made me forget the gender I should have played.
“Eh, wait a minute!”
“What's up brother?”
“What's inside there are also many women?”
“Of course a lot, because the evening like this most of us really like to enjoy this bath.”
Uh, then what about me, I'm a man.
Eh, you! Where have you been, why would I be stuck in a situation like this?
Cih, fine if you want to.
“Then I will enter with pleasure!”
Krieett....
Whushes...
When we opened the bath door, the steam came out quickly. There are also many women in this village who are enjoying the sensation in the bath.
“Oh Lisa, you finally came.” Sapa an auntie standing in front of the daycare table.
“Iya aunty, just now there are still some affairs.”
“Eh by the way, who is this miss?” that aunt whispered to Lisa.
“Oh, this brother is the guest of the village chief, he will stay with us for a while.”
“Heh so yes.., miss, please come in!” Greet the aunt.
“Then excuse me!”
I also take off my suit and replace it with a towel that has been provided there.
“Hei miss, your body is very good yah.”
“Eh.., you're too flattering aunt.” Honestly, it made me feel weird, but I had no other choice to accept any of this.
“Ah, do not underestimate miss, besides your body, your skin and hair are also very beautiful. But unfortunately.”
“.... what is aunt?”
“Hmm, well. I know why you're shy to enter this bathhouse. You do not need to be discouraged, because as you get older then your chest will certainly also grow!”
“....”
Why does this guy encourage me to do something like that.
After acting to calm myself down, this aunt politely led me to enter the bathhouse.
Then as I have always imagined, the sensation of a hot bath is indeed very comfortable.
“This, convenient once.” Even that comfort made me feel tired as if evaporating with the water.
“It looks like big brother is quite enjoying it for someone who is trying to resist all this?”
“What are you saying, there is no way not someone will refuse comfort like this.”
“Ahahaha, this brother is there. Though you yourself did it.”
I caught Lisa and washed her long hair. Although this is different from my hair, but I think her hair is also so beautiful for a girl her age.
**
And after I thought it was enough to enjoy the bath, I went out to arrange the room that the village chief had provided. But even so, there were no items at all that had to be laid out in this room. So is my luggage, there is absolutely no stuff that can be arranged in this room.
By the way, when did I start carrying all this?
I thought only you could do all this.
Tok, tock, tock, tock,
“Kakak, dinner time loh, everyone is waiting outside.”
“Iya, I'll be there soon!”
“Then I first ya!”
“Eh, wait for Lisa, you said outside instead of in the dining room?”
“Eating space, why is sister bouncing so?”
Heh, why did this kid even say that I was bouncing, not really supposed to be at the place to eat.
I immediately found out the true circumstances and immediately got out of the village chief's house. Then what appears there is a buffet followed by all the villagers, or indeed that is how they determine the time to eat.
