The sandstorm has stopped. The three of them rode on the back of Bromo Agni to pass through the desert. The hot air that hit them was quite sultry. Their water supply is reduced and depleted. They had to go down and refill the bottles. Too bad, as far as the eye can see the panorama that is seen is an arid desert.
"Do you know of a place to fill water, miss?" ask Dr. Francais.
"Southward. Not far from here are the remains of the ruins connected to Lucia's body." Emera commented cynically, "You guys are how, anyway. Passing through the desert but not carrying enough water."
"Yes, sorry. It's not that we don't have enough water. They were taken when we were taken captive by the Inicia. What the hell are they anyway? How could they call the snake penther?"
"They didn't call him, the snake did live around the waters and hunted in groups. Then the Inicia Tribe was actually good. They like nature. They have existed since the time of the either and are in mutual contact with Lord Lucia. They're just too fanatical about the forest" Emera explained.
"Fumu, excessive fanatics are not good" said Dr. Francais.
Bromo Agni changed his course. They're moving south. Not far from there are ancient ruins that Emera calls as the Dessert Temple. The building is open from hardened sand and sand. Its color that fused with the surroundings made it escape from eye observation. This became one of the factors why the Trainer Association did not find such a large place. Another factor is because the floor above the ground is small. Construction of pyramid-shaped buildings that go underground.
On the first floor there was nothing but sand and a support pole. They headed straight to the second floor below. There began to be several traps, such as a hole containing pointed iron, automatic arrow shots, and other deadly traps. Thankfully, there is Emera here. Emera had already memorized all the traps they could pass through easily. Lucia had recorded everything in her memory. Now on the bottom floor, the 3rd floor, there is a treasure depository. Too bad they couldn't take him. The capacity of their goods is not that much.
Up to the bottom floor they found an underground lake. The water in the lake was calm and technical. The atmosphere in the dark, but the fire from Bromo Agni seemed to be reflected above the surface of the lake so that it illuminated the entire room. They clearly saw a lake that looked more like that pond.
"intriguing. This place is not as simple as the tombs of ancient kings." Dr. Francais pulled out her chin.
"The water in this lake comes from the groundwater channel carried by part of Mr. Lucia's body. The carried water is collected so that some of Mr. Lucia's other body can maintain itself in order to stay alive. Don't pollute this water." His eyes stared intently at Kai as he said the last part.
"Do you think I'm a barbarian who would wildly destroy everything in front of me?" Kai scrunched his forehead.
"Yes." Yeah." Emera nodded.
Dr. Francais shook her head looking at the two of them. He then said, "I'll look at the reliefs. You guys just rest here." With those words he left them both.
Kai and Emera looked at Dr. Francais. Now Emera also feels if the person is too focused on work. He thought, 'Can't he not let me be with this guy?'
"good. Now what are we gonna do? Look at the lake until he comes back" Kai grumbled. He folded his hands in a feeling of annoyance.
He waited a lot and became Dr.'s bodyguard. Francais on a mission. But this time the situation is a little different. He who was left with a girl felt awkward the longer and the longer. It didn't matter if it was the person from the Trainer Association. But Emera was a stranger she had just met today. He did not think about the topic at all.
"I don't know what you're gonna do, but I'm gonna do what I'm gonna do." Emera approached the lake or pond. He picked up the dried pieces of wood from inside the bag at his waist and dropped them into the lake water. Kai was astonished, but he didn't want to ask.
"Good, I've gained my consciousness and obtained information from the main body." Lucia's head was raised above the water. He looked at them both. "There's information I need to tell you both."
Kai was amazed to see a creature that could grow so fast. It was actually natural considering that the penthers had an unusual ability since they had the strength. But each who is the ancestor of the penthr has a different level. Not much is known of them other than coming from outdated ruins and data.
"What is that, Mr Lucia? And why didn't you tell me?"
"This is information that has been around for a long time. I didn't tell you because it would be too far to get to these ruins and the enemy is very strong. Since you guys came here then I'll tell you a little bit about what happened the other day."
"So so as not to trouble me, yes," said Emera.
"Then about the incident the other day, some people came to these ruins. It was as if they were looking for something. I don't know exactly what they're looking for, but some things are missing. I'm sorry if I can't clearly see what they're looking for" Lucia said.
Emera closed her eyes while looking down. He thought of some possibilities that could be done within these ruins. "Does that have anything to do with the Trainer Association, Kai?"
"Where do I know?" Kai shrugged his shoulders. "I'm not in the administration of the Association."
"The one who is with you?" continued Emera.
"No is a researcher who plunges directly into the field. He also does not take much administration. We'll make sure of that when we get to the Association."
Dr. The francis suddenly came. He brought something. It was similar to a piece of cloth. "Yes! Are you guys all right?"
"What did you bring?" tanya Emera saw the thing that Dr. Francais.
"That's it, I don't know either. But at least I have a guess." He's closing in on them. "I found this in the treasure room. Nearby some things have been stolen."
"Whoever it is they must be very skilled to be able to get this far without triggering a trap" said Kai
"But don't you feel like they're so careless? Why was the cloth that said 'Black Night Company' left behind and seemed to give a clear clue?"
"Don't jump to conclusions. Usually this is a prank" Emera said.
