You look prettier…

Kirana benderang shimmered through the leafy leaves in the middle of dim with the shadow of the trees. The sound of foot rubbing touches the twigs and rustling of frictional leaves. The wind gently blows through the body soothing the body. This is the world untouched by human greed. It was beautiful again to take a look.

The same forest, but in different directions. As we moved away, we got deeper into our conversation. Luceyl and Eil tell a lot about the world they live in, as well as Leora who is passionate about telling stories. “It's a great peace to stay here. If only I could have chosen to be born where, surely I chose to be born in this world.”

“Hehe... You're exaggerating, this is no different from the rural atmosphere in your world,” Luceyl smiled back. I was surprised to hear that as if I knew about it. “You've been to our world?”

“Never, but somehow I once felt living in your world.”

“Do you feel the same, Eil?” alya.

“I do too, but I don't remember too much. Like the memories you see in dreams.”

The head of the village not far from me provoked me to ask something. “We, humans, have a history of how we were created and where we came from. Do you also know your origin?”

Instantly all the celestial beings stopped and made us, humans, surprised to see it. I panicked to see everyone looking at me.

“A—What I wrongly asked?”

“All over the ignorance of Mr. Hero. We're back on the road!” lontar the village chief then we continued on our way. He put his mouth straight into my ear and said, “Your question is taboo to us.”

“M—Sorry! I didn't mean it that way.”

“I understand you. Slightly dispelling your sense of alignment, we are not much different from humans like you. You know the legend of the King of the Universe?”

“King of the Universe? I've read it.”

“About like that, we've been living side by side since the beginning of civilization there.”

“Alright, thank you for still wanting to tell me.” The village head smiled. I was in my head about the conversation just now. “King of the Universe? The legend really exists?” I murmured in my heart. I wanted to ask her again, but I felt bad.

“Better I just hold. Hopefully it will be answered later.”.

My attention was instantly distracted by Leora who shouted, “The flower is glowing!” I looked at the flower, different from the one I had met before. “You were called by him,” Luceyl said. “You keep walking, we want to go to the flower for a while,” I told the village chief.

“All keep running!”

We approached the sparkling flower. Apparently, that was the first word that came to my head. Eil plucked one of them, pink in color and his petals that resembled trumpets. “Do you guys see it? Beautiful carving on his petals,” asked Eil.

“Ukiran? I just saw the beautiful petals,” Gras replied.

Leora put the flower into her robe. The robe glowed and then disappeared again. “What has changed?” ask Ellie. Leora moved her body, there was nothing. “Try to see this petal once again,” Luceyl said. Leora's face immediately turned to be very happy.

“I saw it! Wow, that's beautiful..”.

“Ivy Gloria flowers, very beautiful especially in the morning. This flower gives the ability of sharp vision for its owner,” said Eil.

“Ah, it's worth Leora so you can see the details of this petal...” mumbled.

“You both have it too,” Stella said.

“Surely, so many of us are good at archery,” reply Luceyl.

“Alright, let's go back before we miss further,” invite Athar.

“Wait, the flower seems to call me,” Alya continued and ran over to the flower. We followed him too. The flowers are big enough and the petals are like a crown.

“Hibiscus flower, make the owner not tired quickly and also make him see moving. There are many meanings of this flower. This flower is quite famous,” explained Luceyl.

Seeing such a large flower made me think of an idea. I immediately plucked it without a second thought and called Alya over to get closer. I asked him to turn around and put it in his tied hair. I was impressed with Alya who was so well suited to the flower.

“You look prettier..”

Suddenly the robe shone, and then a flower picked by itself floated towards the robe. The flowers bound with hair also glistened beautifully, as if fused with Alya's hair.

“These four of you..” muttered Ellie.

“You why?” I asked Luceyl and Eil.

“T—Nothing..” reply Eil stammered.

“K—You are indeed a real man..” Luceyl continued.

In the end we went back to the group. Not long after we came out of the forest. It seems like we were on a green plain, the trees were not as shady as before. I feel like there's life not far from here.

The village chief asked us to stand by and walk slowly. “In front there is a village, and it looks like the village has been destroyed.”

I could see a black fog as if enveloping the village from a distance. As you get closer, everything is visible. The light creature was lying everywhere along with a nearby bow. I asked the village chief to hold the entourage first. Together with our friends we checked out this village.

“Malka, it looks like there are some people there,” whispered Luke.

We went behind the ruins. There were three figures covered in thin black smoke and their robes were different from ours. “I think they're from Knox's squad,” Ethan said. They looked helpless and just leaned back with their hands covering their wounds.

“Flower there twinkles..” murmured Lena.

The flower was across from where we were hiding. We don't want to have to turn around in order to get there. “Me and Kellos will accompany you. You wait here,” I said.

Step slowly, avoiding the slightest sound. It's so messy here that it makes it hard for us to step up. The flowers are getting closer—

“Aaaa!”

I was surprised to hear that. “What's Lena?” my many. “A—There's something moving around my neck..” A skeleton perched there. Kellos took the insect and threw it away.

“S—Si—Who's in... there?”

The voice sounded softly from the direction of the three people. One of them seemed to be moving away from us. Alya and the others came out of hiding and approached them. In the meantime we were finally right in front of the flowers.

“The flowers give off a ray and hover upwards, not as usual.” Kellos murmured.

Lena plucked it then put it on her robe. Instantly the sky became brighter with the wind blowing fiercely the blink of an eye waved our robes. A ray of golden-white light enveloped Lena. My body feels cool near him. Then the rays fly indeterminate direction away, leaving a trail of plants that immediately grow and bloom.

“What a beautiful..” mumbled.

We approached our friends with three helpless people. “Use your stick for them,” says Eil. Lena followed what Eil said.

“The black smoke is gone!” lontar Gras's. Their robes also turned out to be just like the ones we wore. “They are already a part of us,” Luceyl said.

“What is this effect of the flower that Lena got just now?” manya curious.

“True, Lilia flowers. Symbolizes purity and purity. Rarely have it. Usually only exist in healer shamans.”

“Curer?” ask Leora.

“Names for those who are good at healing and purifying ether,” Eil said.

“Same as a doctor if in our world,” Zilei continued.

The three of them were unconscious. Not long after, the group came to enter the village. The village chief came to us.

“We rest here first, while waiting for them to wake up.”
