MASSHIAHSAGA - DESTINY TOWER OF MAJESTY

GOODBYE

Fenris stood shielding Loup while the citizens were milling around the place with confused faces. Havard and Do Quo observed them while Sultan Yazid and Nagini also slowly inched closer to Selena who was on the side of Loup and Fenris. Thor snorted softly as Champa approached one of the residents.

"What are you doing again?" asked Champa in surprise while carrying his hammer.

"We are looking for the creature" replied one of the residents. "You guys managed to kick him out?" ask the resident while glancing at Fenris and Loup.

Champa laughs. "You mean, Garaou?"

The citizen nodded. Champa laughed again. "That creature will no longer be here. He's already run away." The silver-white haired girl replied.

Some people stared at Loup. "Who is that woman? We just saw him here for the first time."

Sultan Yazid interrupted. "He is just like Fenris. This woman is lost in this forest." she glanced for a moment at Loup and then looked back at the residents. "Go back to Gieljoorn. tell Haldberg that his nephew has been found."

Residents discussed each other and in the end they nodded in agreement and then invited each other to leave the hill.

After their death, Sultan Yazid kept his spear back on his back. This action was followed by his five colleagues who joined in sheathing their weapons. Sultan Yazid looked at Fenris.

"For while you are both safe, Fenris." said Sultan Yazid.

"Thank you, sir." said Fenris.

"Call me Abu Yazid" replied Sultan Yazid. "How's next? You won't be able to keep lying to the citizens about Loup." she said, looking back at Loup, who looked down while clutching the blanket that covered her naked body.

"Unless she leaves Gieljoorn and looks for a new life." Selena said with a nod and looked at Fenris. "Are you willing to defend Loup?"

Fenris, the twelve-year-old young man nodded steadily. Havard chuckles.

"How persistent?" challenge the young man.

"I will guard it with all my soul." said Fenris.

"I'm afraid you won't be able to step on Gieljoorn again, if you fight for your girlfriend's fate." Havard nodded his head at Loup.

Fenris looked at Loup. The incarnate girl Garaou was also staring at him. Fenris smiled.

"I was willing to leave Gieljoorn, for his sake." said Fenris in the end.

Sultan Yazid nodded then sighed. "I'll try to help you, Fenris. For now, let me take you to Haldberg."

Fenris finally got it. The seven men accompanied the young man and his girlfriend to leave the hill.

...****************...

Haldberg stared at the old woman's incarnation garaou and then looked back at Fenris who was also staring at him. While Sultan Yazid and his six colleagues just sit waiting for what will be done by the ruler.

Haldberg took a few breaths and stared at the ceiling. The parobaya man finally looked at Fenris.

"I personally don't mind Loup's whereabouts, Fenris." said Haldberg. "But the villagers already hate the creature. Anyway, how did you survive last night with him when he returned to his original test run?"

"This is the real ujud now, Uncle." refuted Fenris. "Loup is no longer a garaou. She's now Loup!"

Haldberg. "What did you say? Your girl? Is it because that garaou became a girl and then you fell in love with her? That's so ridiculous!" the parobaya man.

"That change I didn't see this once, Uncle!" refute Fenris again. "Every full moon, he'll turn into a human because the real demihumans are, only their abilities are weak."

"So you've seen that woman before?" search Haldberg.

Fenris nodded then looked at Selena. "And the Miss reversed the formula of the change. Now Loup will only be a garaou every full moon."

Haldberg turned to look at Selena who was sitting next to Havard. "Is what he said right?"

Selena smile. "You better believe it."

"But... How can the two coexist? It violates nature." said Haldberg.

Sultan Yazid cleared his throat, making Haldberg look at him.

"There is one place where the violation of nature is not an obstacle" said Sultan Yazid. "Fenris can live there with Loup."

"But this child has not left Gieljoorn once." said Haldberg with a huff. "The loss in Hoyabaccha Forest, was the first time."

"If he wants to fight for his principles, he has to emigrate." said Sultan Yazid. "Fenris will be able to fight for his principles in Echidnopolis."

"I will help contact King Maui. He will definitely accept Fenris and Loup with open arms." Sultan Yazid said with a smile.

Haldberg returns to meet Fenris. "Are you sure you're living with Loup in Echidnopolis?" ask the man with doubt.

Fenris nodded. "If it makes us both comfortable and non-discriminatory, I'm willing to stay there."

"But.." refuted Haldberg.

"They'd be better off staying there" Havard said. "Unless you are willing to make yourself their protector. But I'm sure you won't be able to withstand the pressure of the citizens of Gieljoorn."

Haldberg snorted softly and then took another breath.

"Do you guarantee that they will not find difficulty in their new home?" haldberg asked doubtfully.

Sultan Yazid stood up and took out a golden badge and showed it to Haldberg. "Do you have any doubts about me?"

Haldberg saw the badge and was shocked. The man immediately knelt down. "Your Majesty, Sultan Al-Bustami of Tel-Qahira."

Fenris went to her knees, while Loup just lowered her face.

Havard and the others stood up. "You no longer need to doubt the good faith of Paduka Sultan." he said.

Haldberg nodded obediently. "I believe in him."

Do Quo approached Sultan Yazid. "Your Majesty has again opened up his identity." he replied in a whisper.

"Forced.." replied Sultan Yazid in a whisper.

...****************...

K.Y.M. The sancakala is anchored in the ocean. On the pier bridge, Fenris and Loup say goodbye. Both with Haldberg's permission and the blessing of Sultan Yazid will continue his life in Echidnopolis, the city of mixed descent or human-non-human partners. Like the city of Turan under the control of Sheikh Fahril at-Tamim, Echidnopolis is also a city that has a special autonomy and is ruled by a fairy from the tribe of Vanr.

"I hope you two will always get along well" Haldberg told Fenris. "And keep the woman from raising her claws before the townspeople."

Havard and the others simply responded to Haldberg's remarks with a soft laugh. Fenris smiled and nodded. Haldberg sighed and looked at Loup.

"Shey's my ponakan. He has put his heart on you. Later, if I visit Echidnopolis, I will be able to meet my grandchildren from both of you.

Fenris just laughed clumsily while Loup blushed. Haldberg. "pull up. The ship is waiting."

Fenris paused and stepped towards the boat followed by Loup. A rower then moved the boat away.

Haldberg had just turned to face Sultan Yazid when the black-coated man made a sound. "We will also leave Gieljoorn" Sultan Yazid said. "We're going to Leningrad."

Haldberg smiled. "I don't have the chance to entertain you all." he said.

"We have a special task that we must complete immediately" Sultan Yazid explained the reason. "Of course if the task is done, I'll invite you to Tel-Qahira."

"Alright then, Your Majesty. I hope that your journey to Leningrad will not be hindered" Haldberg said, bowing in reverence.

Sultan Yazid nodded and invited his six companions to leave the place. Six animal mounts carrying the seven men left Gieljoorn towards the Hoyabaccha Forest.

They entered the forest. Some distance away in the forest, Champa stops his horse.

"I think I have other business to do." said Champa. "We're going to split up here. If you go down the left side of that forest hallway, you will arrive at Leningrad."

Sultan Yazid looked at Champa deeply and then the black-coated man nodded. "If you're looking for us, we haven't left Leningrad in a week."

Champa nodded then directed Chitu's horse to turn to the right aisle and the animal ran carrying Champa into the other part of the forest. Just now Sultan Yazid was about to invite his five colleagues, again Nagini voiced.

"I also have some business to do." said the woman. "If in a week you don't see me, just go on your way."

Without needing any comment, Nagini directed the geryon horse to turn and leave the five men behind. The astonished Havard only looked at Selena who also shrugged her shoulders.

"How is it going, your Majesty? Are we going on the journey?" do Quo Fishing Pills.

Sultan Yazid only sighed then nodded. "Yes. We're heading to Leningrad."

the five men continued their journey through Hoyabaccha Forest by following the passageway that led them north, to Leningrad City. []
