The Admirer



Ghahhhh...


Hyaaaa...


"Sister... Be careful with your spear, the knife almost hit me" Lowin's body stiffened motionless when the brother's weapon almost hit him.


Unlike his sister, every afternoon his brother always practiced in the yard next to his house. Lowin was very happy when he saw his brother practicing and shrewdly holding a weapon. Mourine is very proficient in martial arts by using spear weapons made of sticks and knives at the end. Her brother's spear was different from the others because it was the original handmade from the revamped Mourine's hand, the same but not the same and no one knew about it, including the mother who is afraid to see her daughter play sharp weapons. Therefore Mourine is only a basic exercise if the Mother is at home, but not on holidays because Mother who has to sell in the market makes Mourine can freely play at home like there is no hope if there are enemies who dare to fight her brother.


Lowin could only see Mourine training because she was still fourteen years old and was not allowed to use sharp weapons. If allowed to practice, he must use weapons made of wood or objects that are not dangerous. Lowin prefers to see his brother train especially if the mother is not at home the movement is very great and cool, more importantly Lowin feels satisfaction when seeing the movement of the brother. It was like he was following a real fight.


Sssett's... Sssett...


Plkkkkp... Plakkkp...


His spear movements sometimes made Lowin tremble and fear.


"You better accompany brother to fight" said the brother.


"May I train with my brother" Lowin said.


In his heart Lowin desperately wanted to be like his brother, an expert in martial arts and using weapons. But his fear of the rules made him afraid to say and act. The rules in the botimalos are very strict, no one can be violated without exception, whether young or old, the person who violates must still be punished. Therefore, Lowin was happy because his brother invited him to train together.


"Use this..." Mourine threw the wooden sword she made for her sister.


"Thank you brother"


"You see that" the brother pointed to a wall made of wood in his yard that had been marked like a throwing board.


"Yes... I saw it" Lowin nodded.


"Look at..."


Pppssssssshh... Dakkkp.


"Washwwww..." Lowin shouted loudly amazed at the action of his brother.


Mourine was not only good at playing the spear but the needle sword that Lowin had never seen before.


"What weapon is a brother" asked Lowin.


"It's Moul, a little needle-like sword, it's a special weapon made by big brother so you're the only one who knows and you don't tell Mom. Okay, I'll leave some for you"


Lowin just nodded speechless because he was happy to see the weapon given by his brother.


"O yeah, don't forget to take that wooden gun with you wherever you go, because it's harmless and maybe it can help you"


Lowin simply smiled and continued to nod.


"Stop!"


Nodding Lowin's head immediately stopped.


Lowin was closer to his older brother than his own mother, Lowin did not know his father because he was left behind by his father when he was one year old and Mourine 7 years old. He didn't know his father either the face or the smell. His mother was busy selling drugs in the market, therefore he was only accompanied by his brother, because it was also his brother did not forbid him to go home late in the afternoon because the sister came shortly after his mother.

Garsna was the supreme commander of the war, he held complete control over the security in the kingdom of botimalos. Garsna has a large body, stocky and a spooky face. He was a very strong war commander, the sword he held could be many times the weight of an ordinary sword, with just a single swing of many fallen troops or collapsed buildings.


Garsna had several captains to lead his respective armies. This most distant little kingdom was in turmoil as the Irgot army began to attack, not knowing what they were looking for, which they knew all of its troops were evenly distributed. Botimalus was not a great kingdom to surpass the army of king Xyor. The king became troubled if they came to his kingdom.


The kingdom became angry and uncontrollable. Obis who are the top officials of the kingdom began to find a way to save the people and the kingdom.


"What exactly is king Xyor looking for, after a long time he kept silent why he now began to destroy anything!" Ask the king of Tobi in wonder.


"We don't know what he's looking for, we might find out if we wait until the rest of the lamin comes here" replied Garsna.


Garsna and the others were waiting for an answer to the question they had in mind. They are all waiting for 4 of the seven. They also feel worried about the wait, how not one of the lamin has been exposed to the attack of creatures that they do not know, either, 2 Famin was already in the botimalos and they were only waiting for the 4th Famin which they also did not know the true state.

Hiaatt... Hiatttts...


"Sister, can you also use arrows?" Ask Lowin.


Mourine shakes her head. Lowin who saw her was confused by her brother's head.


"What does that mean, brother?"


"KakaK can't play arrows, but throw.sister expert!" Mourine prides herself.


"Owh is that, but what's the difference, brother...? Isn't it the same!" Jawah Lowin was flat and increasingly confused.


"See, but you can't throw with a bow. I prefer to use my hands directly"


Mourine and Lowin then resumed their training, Lowin was already getting used to using and swinging his wooden sword. Lowin practiced and studied happily and cheerfully, unlike Lowin when he was at school or outdoors. No one can know or be with him.


Lowin was overjoyed to be able to practice swordplay with his brother, his smile continuing to be painted on his face. But the view of the brother was never separated from his sister, although he was trying to fend off the attack from Lowin but the gaze continued to see Lowin, he felt something to his sister, he felt something, Mourine was afraid that something might happen to her. The question for Mourine, actually Lowin knows or not about the picture.


"Mourine..." Call a man from outside the yard fence.


Mourine and Lowin compactly looked towards the sound that stopped his training.


"It's Sheki!" Lowin's sigh saw the arrival of his teacher.


"You practice on your own first, brother will return" Mourine said.


Mourine approaches Sheki who seems serious. "What's wrong?" Ask Mourine wonder.


"I will take you to the kingdom of Botimalos, according to ito Lestiw you are a gifted child" said Sheki.


"really that? When?" ask Mourine enthusiastically.


"Tomorrow, when you're going to school. You will be invited by Lestiw, only seven chosen people will be trained secretly including you. You have to keep this a secret"


Lowin who saw his brother was very happy to talk with ito Sheki, Lowin was curious and wanted to know what they were talking about. It looks serious and fun.


Ito Sheki immediately left after delivering his message.
