Legend of the Moon Crystal

Chapter 3 "The Story of Raynen"

Iloania takes Raynen to an inn. With a cloak covering Raynen's body and in the arms of Iloania, the wounds on his body would not be seen. And he will also not be recognized those who are still chasing him. At the two-story inn, Iloania stepped in to rent a room.

"Excuse me" said Iloania politely.

The middle-aged lung woman waiting in the entrance hall stood up and greeted Iloania kindly. "Little Miss, do you need a room?"

Iloania nodded. "Yes aunty, my sister is very sleepy and asleep. We haven't even reached our brother's house. It seems far away."

"Where is your brother's house?" Ask the woman.

"Yaisan City."

"Well, it's still in the north of this town, miss. The city was still quite far away and had to use a train to get there." The woman explained.

"really. So because my sister was so exhausted, we decided to stay here until tomorrow morning." Iloania.

"alright, miss. The cost of one room 2 beds per night 5 gold coins includes lunch, night and breakfast" explained the woman who owns the inn.

Iloania nodded and took out 7 gold coins from her dimension ring. "It's aunt."

"It's too much, miss!" Shocked the woman.

Iloania shook her head with a sweet smile, "It doesn't matter aunt. Where's our room, auntie?"

"ah! Thank you, miss! Come, auntie, deliver your rooms."

The woman took Iloania and Raynen up the stairs and into a room. Some movers were seen walking around the inn. The woman opened a wooden door between the other wooden doors in the hallway and let Iloania in. The room was not very spacious, simple with only two beds, a small table in the middle with a sitting pillow. There are several books that are placed in the corner of the room. A large window was between the two small beds.

"Auntie will take lunch later miss. Make sure little miss and little master take a bath to feel refreshed after the trip."

"Thank you, aunt." Iloania said as she closed the door as the woman walked away.

When the door closed, Raynen descended from Iloania's back with an anxious face, "M-Sorry Brother. I-I must be heavy."

"not heavy. Come sit down, brother will treat you."

Raynen nodded his head. Taking off the robes and clothes he was wearing, the wounds and bruises were clearly imprinted on the body of the brackets. Iloania faintly bit her lower lip holding her ringing when she saw it. Truly, that wound for a child like Raynen is terrible.

As Raynen sat himself in the bed, Iloania sat behind him and pressed her left hand against Raynen's back. A golden light enveloped Raynen, making Raynen sparkle and be amazed. Slowly, the wounds and bruises on Raynen's body faded. Healing takes time. After lunch and resuming treatment, the healing was complete when the sun began to sink.

When she finished, Iloania pulled her hand from Raynen's back. Now his body is free from wounds.

"H-Great! Big brother is amazing!" Adm Raynen.

"really?" Iloania Mummings.

"Yes!! Brother is great!" Praise Raynen with a twinkle on his face, while a small chuckle belies him.

"So, Raynen. Can you tell me how they caught you? And what do you know about them?" Ask Iloania.

Raynen was silent for a moment. Gathering his courage to tell a series of events that became a creepy scourge for him.

"Two weeks ago, my brother Qilan and I were walking to the city center to meet my mother and sister. The streets are pretty quiet during the day. Just as we were walking, from the opposite direction there were a lot of pretty big trains. Five to six trains. I think it's just people who want to move on and keep going. In fact, one of the trains stopped and came out a big man from the car. The driver looked at us sharply. And I began to feel danger. But too late, the big man had already arrested me and Qilan and forcibly loaded us into the carriage which turned out to be filled with children my age and my sister." Raynen.

"Then we were forcibly picked up by many scary men who forced us into an old building surrounded by a short forest. There .... a lot of children are being held captive. Not in the building, but we were forced into a dark, very cold basement. It's scary, especially when the other kids are always crying."

Rayner crumpled his fingers, "Any time there are children who are dragged forcibly and never come back. I thought they were bought children. Not only that, some beautiful girls were forced to come into contact with them. With my own eyes, I saw some girls dying of cold and pain. I wanted to help them, but I knew I couldn't do anything. Later after hearing some chatter, I knew if they were often referred to as Black Bats. And that's their job. They hailed from the western 3rd district of the kingdom and kidnapped children to trade with people from other kingdoms."

"Every night we all have worries. To think whether we could still survive or not just by eating hard bread and water once a day." Raynen.

"Since childhood Qilan had a slightly weak body. That's why I always look after him. But now I am here, while Qilan is there. Qilan must have been in pain, as his stomach was weak against hard food. And I'm here to eat delicious food. Hiks, I'm a bad brother." Isaac Raynen.

Iloania clenched her hands, her heart ached hearing the story of Iloania. Iloania couldn't imagine how much they had suffered in Raynen's story. But for sure, they must be scared. They are just poor kids. The victim of selfish humans who are greedy and have no conscience!

Like animals! And Iloania now feels her name growled.

"When I steal hear they're going to sell me, I freak out. When one man came, I pushed him against the wall and fainted. But I was found out. I was going to pull my sister away, but my sister said she couldn't move. Asking me for help" Raynen said with a sad expression.

"I, panicked and forced, was forced to leave Qilan. But I promised I'd get help to save them." The follow-up made Iloania nod her head after understanding the situation.

Sloania's slender hands landed on Raynen's head, "I see. It's already night. Take a shower, then eat and sleep. This matter let brother take care of it."

"Involve me too brother!" Said Raynen getting a headband from Iloania.

Not what, those Black Bats are a pretty dangerous group. Considering that the lower members alone had a level 5 magical beast partner signified that they were strong and not just anyone. Iloania can't bring Raynen in danger. At least he'll make sure Raynen's safe here.

"No. You believe in your brother, don't you?"

Raynen was silent for a moment before nodding his head. Iloania grabbed Raynen's hand, "Trust me. I'll bring your sister back unharmed."

Raynen nodded his head. He had to be sure, if Iloania could keep her promise. Because Iloania is strong.

"Good."

When Raynen had fallen asleep after bathing and eating, Iloania moved to open the window. A black robe was attached to his body. His long mane was inserted into his robe, although the bottom remained visible. Exceeding a robe that is only knee-deep. The bead remains warm, but the lips form a straight line. With a stern glint in his eyes as he stared at the night's darkness. Moving open the door, Iloania brought up the disc and landed her feet clad in white flatshoes. With a rope wrapped around his ankle and a golden-colored circular object on the outside of each leg. The shoes are sleek and look elegant. It is suitable to complete its appearance.

Like Goddess!

The black disk carried the Iloania flying away at an average speed. His mane and robe fluttered. But Iloania just stared straight without turning away.

"You must be patient. I'll save you guys." Iloania murmured slowly.
