Larme Brisee

Bilateral's Interlude [part 3]

Haaaahh... Exhausted. Serving Alviria to make her heart back cheerful is very tiring, I need a vacation it feels, my stamina is drained! Aaaa!!!

"Hehe... Thanks, yeah! Eril is the best friend!" said Alviria who smiled sweetly while carrying four bags that were full of clothes that we had tried.

"It's mediocre anyway, I'm just kepengen added a collection of clothes," answered me who slightly blushed embarrassed by Alviria's treatment is too good.

"hee... Collections, huh? I thought that bikini wasn't the one you picked up, but instead it was, "the god pointed at one of the bags I was tote.

"GIRL!-"

"Eril! I finally met you!" call someone who cuts my word.

I also reflexively looked at his voice. I was surprised, my sister Eve was at the Einkaufszentrum with someone next to her who of course I immediately recognized, Edwardian.

"Sister Eve!?" my surprised peek saw it.

"Well! Lord Dradrhurl!" said the excited Alviria. "Ah, Edward too. Yahoo!"

"Just as well, Vera," Edwardian replied as he waved his hand.

"Ah, you must be Miss Alviria Versteckt Wilhelm. Thank you for taking care of my sister," Brother Eve greeted him with a small smile.

"W-uh! Th-yes! It's an honor to be Eril's friend" replied Alviria, who grew so excited that she was nervous. "If I may, Mr. Dragdrhurl may call me Vera."

"Don't be too formal, just call me Eve, please" said Sister Eve.

"Good! Senior Evantz!" Answer Alviria.

"I told you, Eve's enough. Haha..."

Sister Eve carried a shopping bag in her left hand, but not with Edwardian. Strange, why the two of them could walk together to the Einkaufszentrum today.

"Er... Tumben wanted her, "my slightly unkind interjection with her because sister Eve has not greeted me since I was accepted into the academy, even on the first day she said 'pretend not to know him easily.

"Well, my little sister is hugging apparently. Haha, yes, sorry brother. I'm just embarrassed to look too familiar with my own sister at the academy, yeah, that's it" he said, laughing at my insinuation.

"Religion is a useless activity for me," answered me who threw my gaze in the other direction.

"That's how the 'pronounced' is, hehe," replied Alviria who was sniffing.

"Verah!" my reply that did not receive his tipping. "By the way, how can Brother Eve go with this 'thing?" my question then points to Edwardian.

"Oi, I'm not a thing!" deny Edwardian who was smiling but his eyes twitched in annoyance.

"You mean Edward? Yeah, he's one of my juniors at Fran's Club. I came here because of him anyway" replied Eve.

"meaning?"

"Yes. I actually wanted to take you to see the inauguration of the Karminroter Mond Artifacts, but I was confused to invite you when it was nice to not be seen by other students," said Sister Eve who then reached into her pocket which contained four gold tickets. "It just so happened that this morning when I looked in the window it looked like Edward was talking to you, so I just took him. Thank you, Edward."

"No problem, Chief Eve," replied Edwardian who bowed slightly to Eve's brother.

"I've told you how many times, if outside of club activities please forget about seniority," Eve told Edwardian.

"Well, Mr. Eve, hehehe" replied Edwardian, who was scratching his head with a small laugh.

"I told you," she was upset. "By the way, I have something for you." Now Eve turned to me. He gave me the shopping bag.

"Forku?" tanyaku then received the bag and examined the contents accompanied by the head of Alviria who was curious so he peeked into it.

"I know it's too late, but. Happy birthday, Eril,"

There are two silver boxes, this box is familiar. Out of curiosity then I immediately sat on the bench to dismantle the box, Alviria who was as thought as I was also tensely sitting beside me who watched me unboxing.

I was surprised by what was inside. The Volva-type Tarachia bag was wrapped in a sparkling golden seal, Alviria who saw it was also very surprised and amazed by what she saw.

"Do you remember your birthday last week? I'm the only one who hasn't given me a gift" he said, scratching his head with an unpleasant smile.

"Please, it's yours anyway" he replied, looking satisfied.

"Vera. This is for you. So we have the same bag," I said, giving the other box that had not been opened at all.

Alviria was moved by it, she brutally hugged me while shouting "you are my best friend!" we both are not that familiar. Let it be, happiness like this does feel more pleasant if people around are also happy.

Sister Eve said that before the four of us went to the museum it was better if my groceries were left first to the horse carriage that was waiting outside the Einkaufszentrum, which was the first thing to do, Edwardian offered to drive him while we could go to the underground museum.

We also went together to the hallway with a staircase that leads to the underground floor in Einkaufszentrum, Einkaufszentrum has four underground floors in it and on the fourth floor is the Einkaufszentrum museum.

Quite a long time also had to go down so many stairs, let alone a lot of people such as business people, merchants until the nobility passed. Most must be heading to the museum to witness the inauguration of the artifact, I don't know how good the inauguration will be but because it has been bought a ticket by Brother Eve then I will be happy to see it.

By the time we got to the gate of the museum at that moment the Edwardian had caught up with us, for a moment I thought he must have run to catch up with us. But somehow he did not seem like panting or sweating, even looks like an ordinary road.

Eve gave the ticket to the counter. Outside the gate it is written that today the museum is not open to the public, but only for special inauguration that can only be witnessed by the most important people.

"Is that important for this inauguration?" my murmurs were astonished by how important this event was, or how valuable this ticket was.

"I heard him say that selling tickets can buy a house" replied Alviria who whispered into my ear.

"So-seriously!?" pekikku who tried to minimize the sound so as not to be heard by people around.

Where did Eve get the funds to buy four tickets at once? Besides, if you really want to invite me, why must I have four tickets all? It just so happened that both of them could be for Edwardian and Alviria.

"Well, it's done. Come on in," invite Sister Eve who has finished handing over the ticket.

In this museum is already crowded, a lot of nobles who bring photographers or painters nearby. They wanted to capture the moment where the artifact would be unveiled soon. In addition there is a magnificent podium on which there is a red curtain covering the silhouette of two objects that are shaped like pillars.

There were a lot of round tables and benches with numbers on the table, the four of us got the number 25 which meant we had to sit at the table with the order of the number 25. Right after we sat down, someone went up on stage who seemed to be a host.

"Test, test, one two three, test, test. Alright. Ahem! Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the inauguration of the Karminroter Mond Artifacts and the Auge des Westens!" he said that was immediately replied with a standing ovation from the audience.

"Today is one of the historical moments you've been waiting for, the moment where the rarest artifacts were recently discovered in the Karfait Ruins, the most ancient of which you've ever seen, one of the ruins that became the source of the discovery of artifacts that reveal the origin of magic and curses." The host then gave a hand signal to the crew behind the podium that made them pull the curtain open.

Look at both of these artifacts. There is a pillar shaped like a bullet that taper upwards decorated by a variety of round red gems, there are also strange carvings throughout the artifact. There is a disc-like basin around the bottom area of the artifact accompanied by carvings and small holes.

"The two artifacts were found only a week apart from each other. The rightmost artifact is the Karminroter Mond, this artifact is very difficult to detect because it messes with the magic around it" he said, pointing to artifacts that are like pillars.

"Eril, Edward, Alviria. I think it's better if we look at it from there. It will certainly look more clear," asked Sister Eve who immediately got up and pointed to the edge of the inauguration place.

We also moved and followed him.

Strange, to be seen however if from this angle it even looks more difficult to see the Karminroter Mond, but for Auge des Westens it looks very clear details.

"While on the left is Auge des Westens. This artifact was strongly reacting to the anomaly emitted by Karminroter Mond," he continued, pointing to artifacts with cube shapes that have small triangles at each corner and carvings that are like chain motifs throughout the cube.

"Honestly, we've tried our best to translate the ancient language engraved on it, but we're very noble"

Dwaaaaar!

Alooaaaaaaargh!!!!

There was a sound that shook my ears from above. It sounded like the sound of buildings exploding accompanied by the sound of the roar of something big. Within seconds, a giant figure fell from above and landed behind the podium.

The figure had wings as well as an intimidating bright green eye highlight, I think it was a dragon. His heavy breathing made the steam visible so that his voice could be heard very clearly. For a moment people silently stared, I think this is an entertainment to enliven this event. They were all startled, but calmed down again because they were probably as I thought.

"L-AAAAAAAAA!!" The host shouted hysterically until he ran away from the podium

The dragon looked like it opened its mouth and a bolt of lightning striking out from its mouth onto the floor around it was visible, a dazzling purplish blue lightning roared.

"Three of you, get behind me now!!" shouted Brother Eve who spread her arms trying to protect us.

My legs became stiff, for some reason my body did not want to obey my orders to move. I was shaking so violently, this tension made me unable to hear Eve's screams clearly. The dragon also spouted its lightning magic in all merciless directions that frightened me, all I could do was reflexively close my eyes.
