Legend of the Moon Crystal

Chapter 34 "Attack In the City of Neredith"

A friendly city but always alert. Neredith is a beautiful city with its own charm. Especially when it comes to the season where the flowers bloom, it is always in every corner of the city.

"Come with me." Cleus said making Iloania slightly stare at him before raising the corner of her lips.

"Well, it looks like I'm suspected of ~" Her inner being with an amused smile.

Along the way, Iloania who followed Cleus' steps with her disc saw people who were not magicians officially using magic for daily activities. It appears that some women were drying clothes and using wind magic that made clothes swirl over them. And within minutes, it became dry. Roll dirty clothes in soapy water, in a certain time the clothes become clean to be lifted and rinsed. While some more cook using fire magic.

Even some farmers use earth magic to grow crops. The basic magic they have is good.

"Wah~ is truly a living city." Iloania Mummings.

Stopping at a large building that looked simple, Iloania guessed if this was Cleus' house. When he opened the door, a girl tidied up a shelf and rearranged a book that looked different.

"Dad, dad's been-"

The girl looked at Cleus and screeched. "Dad!! Whose son did you bring home?! Don't tell me he's my sister?! Daddyh! Don't you betray me, huh?!"

"Wency, he's not a father's son." Cleus said making Wency pinch.

The girl with a similar appearance to Cleus approached Iloania, lowered her head and gradually assessed the appearance of Iloania until she pulled the entire sharp outline of her face into a gentle and pleased arch.

"Hehe, very sweet and pretty~"

"ah! Forget it, so who is this kid?" Ask Wency.

"Hello sister~ My name is Iloania Rexelite. Nice to meet my sister" said Iloania kindly.

Wency smiled and nodded her head, "My name is Wency Natheon. You can call me Brother Wency. Understood?"

Iloania nodded her head and smiled brightly. "Understanding~"

Wency closed her eyes and immediately turned around and pulled her father slightly away. "Dad, who's that kid?"

"Looks like a witch."

"Kaa~ Look, very bright. My eyes will be blind. Dad, you're not gonna replace me with that sweet guy, are you? Dad, even though I'm not as sweet and pretty as she is I'm still your daughter!" Whisper Wency.

"A blank, what?" Cleus' grunts made Wency smile silly.

Cleus turned around and came to Iloania. "As long as you are in this city, you will stay with us. It's all here, so enjoy your visit to the town of Neredith."

"Thank you~" said Iloania.

...***...

A few days passed, Iloania and Wency grew closer. Wency considers Iloania like her own sister, and vice versa. Spend time traveling around the city, cooking, eating and washing together. Iloania enjoyed a few days here. Unfortunately, he can't be here, constantly.

"Sister Cy, did you ever miss your sister's mother?" Iloania asked on the sidelines of their activities folding clothes.

Wency nodded, "Often. Maybe, always."

He looked down and carved a smile. "My mother died 2 years ago of illness. Mother's illness, cannot be cured despite summoning the best healing magician in the city. And in the end, mom died in this house."

Iloania who was sitting on the floor laid her head in her arms and placed it on the bed and muttered in a paper-thin voice. "How does it feel to have a mother?"

Hearing that whisper, Wency stopped the movement of her hand. "Lo, you .."

Iloania looked up and put on a faint smile. "Since the baby, I was cared for and raised by the teacher. He's not my father. Not mom. But he's my teacher, teaching me things. Master said I was found in the middle of a flower bed and under the shining moonlight. When the teacher took me, the teacher said my parents must have had a reason to leave me there."

"Until, the teacher died when I was 5 years old. And I started exploring to find out who I really am. "Good talk at the end.

Without a word, Wency hugged Iloania with a warm embrace. It made Iloania a little surprised by the action.

Wency muttered, "If I'm sad. My mother always hugged me like this. Oh, don't be sad."

Hearing Wency's words, Iloania fell silent for a moment before developing her beautiful smile. His hand moved back to Wency's embrace. The loud thumping sound made the two startled and immediately let go of each other's embrace. Looking at the confusion, the door opened revealing Cleus with a tense face.

"Wency, immediately hide the protection room. Iloania, you're coming with Wency." Cleus.

"What's dad?" Ask Wency.

Cleus shook his head and urged Wency. "Hide quickly."

"true."

Cleus' reply made Iloania's memory drift a few days ago. That hateful gaze made a speck of strange feeling in the heart of Iloania. Iloania looked firmly at Cleus. It was as if rejecting the words Cleus was going to say in order to reply to his words.

"I'll come along." Iloania.

Cleus was silent for a moment. "Wency, get inside. And you, come with me."

Iloania smile. "certain. Brother Cy just hide inside."

"Dad! Beyond dangerous for Ilo!" Wency said, but Cleus ignored him and urged him into the protective room.

...***...

Iloania and Cleus rushed out. And found many magical beasts that were crazy. Iloania looked calmly at them before muttering.

"Uncle, just look for the brothers yesterday. Animals here, let me take care of them." Iloania.

Cleus looked at her, "You sure?"

"Hm!" Iloania Mummings.

"Then it's okay."

Finished saying so, Cleus hurried away. While Iloania stretched out her arms and relaxed her stiff muscles before taking her disc.

"The Tone of Purgatory." Mumbled.

A series of staves appeared and surrounded the crazed magical beasts. Unbroken and continued to connect to wrapped around the existing magic beasts. Each winding trapped them and slowly faded the aura of hatred present on them. When the magic beasts that attacked the houses seemed as if they had just woken up from bad influences, they showed expressions of shock as well as fear.

"The devil's beast." Iloania muttered after releasing magic on them.

A demonic beast appeared to emerge from the shadows. Something like a snake with ten long, sharp legs, as sharp as a sword blade. It has ten eyes that can see in all directions and even teeth that are pointed and can tear steel into pieces. It was a terrifying demonic beast.

"The demon beast is bigger than I thought" Iloania murmured.

Oh, grooaaa!!!

The voice was shrill loudly. Making the things around him under pressure. People without magic and having weak magic screamed frantically and ran towards the shelter for such a precarious state at the moment. Iloania was emitting a grey light in her hands.

"Wind spear." He muttered while moving his hand forward.

Above the back of his hand seemed to bring out a faint spear that instantly shot towards the demonic beast. The sound of the impact sounded like the buzzer. Hard but there are not a few scratches there. That demonic beast had extremely hard skin. Iloania watched clearly how the demonic beast was shrieking loudly. As if speaking and the few magical beasts that were still there became like hand-controlled puppets.

The orange-colored tiger-like magical beast roared and charged towards Iloania with a fireball that emerged from its open mouth. Iloania avoided him repeatedly until the wind attack from the side left him a little surprised that his arm was scratched. Dropping drops by drops of red liquid.

"This is unfair! My body is only the size of its tail!" Iloania said when she saw the tiger in front.

"Don't complain. Just destroy him. Want me to help?"

"No!" Iloania Mummings.

A grey light appeared in his hand. With a swift movement, a powerful sweep of wind made the body of the controlled magic beast and the demonic beast crash out of the city area and land hard in the forest area. Taking advantage of the opportunity, a golden light shot out from the body of Iloania and gradually a semicircular barrier enlarged and continued to enlarge until it encompassed the entire city.

His golden bead stared faintly at the demonic beast, "I am exhausted and very sleepy. Fleia, if I fall asleep, just hit me, okay?"

Vleia's voice sounded relaxed, "I can manage it."
