DESTINY GIRL

81. Abu Kopet ?

Tonight they only ate leftover bread last afternoon. They were so busy today they forgot to order dinner. But they are happy because today's struggle is not in vain. Tomorrow life will be normal again. That's their hope. They all slept with big smiles and a new life expectancy.

At midnight, Rey opened her eyes. There are 2 candles illuminating the room. He tried to remember what happened.

Oh... he was wide-eyed to remember the figure who attacked him yesterday, no. This afternoon. That's Destraco. So fast it went almost invisible. Fortunately Rey was wary even though her power was focused on burning down the palace. He immediately used light to form a shield. But due to impromptu, the shield did not fully protect. Destraco's half-attack hit his chest.

If Asgar doesn't immediately keep him out of Destraco's reach, maybe Destraco won't leave.

Rey glanced at the door, as Asgar and Alice sat leaning back asleep. It means it's late. Rey calls Asgar through telepathy (Asgar. Let him sleep in the room with me ).

Asgar awakens and immediately does Rey's orders. He held Alice slowly so as not to wake up. Then Asgar closed the door and joined the others sleeping in the hall.

Outside the atmosphere of light and quiet. There's no interference. I just heard the crickets.

Morning came, the birds sang merrily, unpretentious to each other. Jezko and Cleo sat sunbathing on a bench in the backyard. The residents of the headquarters were still sleeping enjoying the peace. But Alice is in the kitchen boiling medicinal herbs for Rey. He squatted set the firewood so that the heat is small evenly distributed.

" Miss." call Jezko.

" Eh pop-copet abu kopet .... ! aiyaaah ........... Who are you ?! why surprise me ? " the spray of Alice brandishing the small firewood.

" A.anu. I want a copet uh, don't I.......! ma... I mean, I want to ask if..... is Miss making herbal tea ? " he asked nervously.

" That's the table over there "pointing Alice.

Jezko took a cup and poured tea. Then get ready to get out of the kitchen.

" Eeeh..wait...wait..... ! who did you take it for ? it's not for men ! " Alice prevented it.

" No, this is for my wife" Jezko said.

" Ooooooh.......... " Alice nodded. He returned to the furnace. But Alice's brows furrowed, weren't all the members of this headquarters male, how could the man just say for his wife ?

Jezko immediately went to the backyard and gave the tea to Cleo. He blew it before drinking. Not too hot. Soon after, the tea was over.

" It's delicious, the smell is so soothing. Who made it ? " ask Cleo.

" Miss is chatty in the kitchen ! " answer Jezko.

" Huh.....! who....? " ask Cleo.

" I don't know what his name is. She was as talkative and chatty as a granny missing a tooth" Jezko said slightly grumbling.

Cleo smiled looking at him. Jezko was stunned, Cleo was very manissss......

" Hmmm... hmmmm.

Jezko looked back.

" The abu kopet.... ! Wipe your saliva first, disgusting ....! reproof Alice.

Jezko regained his senses and wiped his mouth with his sleeve. It turned out that Cleo was smiling not for Jezko, but at Alice who was standing behind Jezko with a waistline.

" Eee...he.he.he.he..he........ ma.af, miss...." said Jezko as he squeezed his own hand.

Alice passed. He sat next to Cleo. He took Cleo's cup and gave it to Jezko.

" Get it back for your wife "

" A.. i.... " Jezko rushed to the kitchen.

In the hall some people had already started to wake up. Some are sitting, some are just rolling reluctantly to get up. Asgar also sat cross-legged while yawning. In the end, he fell back on his friend who had not woken up. Some others chuckled....

Zacko who saw that immediately got up to Asgar's place. And. he accidentally fell on Asgar.

" Bruukk..... ! "

" aaah..... "

" he.he..... "

Finally all go along ignorant and oppress each other who have not yet awakened. Oh.man......

Rey wakes up and takes a shower. Then join Alice and Cleo. Jezko had already joined the men in the hall.

In the capital the atmosphere looks crowded. People seem to greet each other and smile. Last night they slept well. The men clustered together to talk about the state of the ruined palace. Some people who used to work in the palace asked each other about the future.

" How the state is now. We don't have a leader "

" Haiish. We have not even thanked those who have fought to kill those demons "

" Not kill. but burn "

" Yes, they are brave. Should we give a gift or something ? "

" You're right, we should have met them "

" What if we raise its leader as the new King ? "

" That's good.... but...... do other citizens agree ? "

" I heard the gun shop owner knew them, so let's ask him "

" Yes, let's just ask for more details "

Eventually they flocked to the gun shop.

It just so happened that old Brandon was chatting with the shop owner outside. They were astonished to see so many people coming towards them.

" What is this ? "

" Sorry sir, we'd like to ask you about the people who burned down the palace yesterday. We want to meet them, who's the leader "

" Haha........ Is there any other meaning ? "

" Yes we want to talk about the continuation of this country, no palaces, no Kings.... "

" Mmmm, I have no right to tell you who they really are. But you better meet them straight away. They live in the headquarters of the Knights of Asgar "

" Knight of Asgar ?! "

" Yes, he was indeed the Knight King Higo. But now he works for Ga. uh, a great noble lady. You meet there "

" Okay sir, we're there now "

Then the men marched to Asgar's headquarters. Many people ask and come together. They also want to know the clarity.

While the occupants of the headquarters after breakfast, were still sitting together chatting in the hall. Suddenly the gatekeeper came in and met Asgar.

" Sir... Outside there are many citizens of the city, they want to talk to mister "

Asgar was surprised, he rushed out followed by Zacko and a few others.

" What is this ? " ask Asgar Zacko standing next to him.

" Our masters are all willing to thank you for exterminating the witches and demons from the palace. We would like to ask about the future of this country.... "

" Oh, that..... " Asgar turned to Zacko. Zacko raised his eyebrows and his shoulders, not knowing what to do...

" Look, the state of the palace has been destroyed..... We better get it done and wake up again. Only then do we choose a leader "

People agree. Zacko shouted to his men. Together the townspeople headed towards the ruins of the palace.

The news will be built a new palace to make many residents come to help each other. The women immediately collaborated to provide food and drinks. They all hope the new kingdom will be much better than it was.
