An hour later, they
go to the city of Nero. Bara has given up nagging Meena. That one midget
sometimes it's too childish until it's hard to stop.
The city of Nero is so close
with the largest magic tool shop in the kingdom. He thought about bringing them
get there first. Buy some new tools and weapons. Martin and
his entourage will definitely be there. Remember that Martin lost a weapon
in the previous mission, he definitely needed a new weapon. The best weapon in
the world is sold there.
“We will go to the store
magic tools before the city of Nero. Watch your way, Meena!” Bara told me
because Meena's leading the way. The midget is preoccupied with gossiping with Kyra, looks
doubt as a guide.
“Iya, know,” says Meena.
After that, Meena returned
chat with Kyra, telling her how magnificent the atmosphere is in the destination city
them. Bara is not considered, let alone Soli who was silenced from earlier.
Soli walked alone so
seriously watching around. “Bara, there's been following since we left
Filia.” He reported to Bara. Whisper so the girls ahead don't know it.
Bara nodded. He also
consciously followed. However, he did not feel any danger from the stalker at all
them. “Leave it.” It's better this way. Pretending not to realize
their existence without providing an opportunity for the stalkers
to attack them.
“If you don't want to bother,
let me sneak up and kill them all.” Soli is not
concurred. He didn't want to take the slightest risk that could hurt the ladies
young up ahead.
“I told you no
necessary. They are just small insects.” Bara glared at him, unhappy with
soli's attitude is considered excessive.
“Bara, Soli, look at this! Exists
son turtles!” Suddenly Kyra called. The fire girl pointed at a creature
one meter tall with a green colored body overlaid by a hard shell on the
his back. Judging from any side, it was not the son of a turtle.
Bara and Soli are each other
face-to-face. In the next instant, Soli ran forward, pulling Kyra and Meena away
of that creature. At the same time, Bara took out his bow. He guessed to
the direction of the green creature.
Bara shot about
his opponent's shell, reflecting the arrow fell to the ground. Then, the creature is stature
the green fled, jumping into the Mineral Lake that was located not
far from the road they walked.
“What happened, why
you suddenly shot him?” Kyra and Meena are confused. They don't feel
the danger of that little creature.
“It was a River Child.
If you let your guard down, he'll pull you into the water and drink blood
you guys get dry,” obviously Bara.
“Aut River? But here
no river.” Meena can't believe it. How the creature got so far
alone from their natural habitat.
Soli pointed at the Lake
Minerals. “Water in that place flows from a river connected to water
plunge beside rock mountain.” The point of Soli is, most likely if the child
The river had followed them from the beginning. For the path they
pass right next to the river.
“So, you mean there are still
which others? Are they going to attack us?” Kyra was scared. He was wailing
looking for a similar figure he had just met.
“There are, but I think they are
will not dare to bring themselves.” Bara raised his bow, grinning
frightful. If the stalker is just a River he's not afraid. They're used to
move in small groups of four to five people. Assassinate
one group is not difficult.
“Bara has scared him. Ought
they would not dare to appear again, but why now
popped up in a bunch?”
“What?” Turned
shocked after hearing Soli's words. The man was right. Riverboy
emerging from the direction of the bush in the opposite direction to the lake. Number there is
a dozen, completely incompatible with his predictions.
“Do not hurt us. Our
no intention of attacking you.” That is, one of the creatures of the inhabitants
the water invites Bara to talk.
Meena and Kyra stared
Bara was suspicious. Whether his words are true or not. In their eyes,
the green figures did not look like blood drinkers.
“Basic wicked old Elf,
scare the weak creatures,” Meena said.
“Um, that ..
should oppress weak creatures.” Followed by Kyra.
“Do not want to be tricked. They
following us from the beginning, it is impossible not to save bad intentions.” Soli
be firm in his initial opinion. He doesn't know what's hidden behind
the heartbreaking gazes of the River Children.
“You are the same as Bara.
Basic male evil!” Meena is upset, still sensational with Soli.
“We are just a coincidence
passing the road in a direction. Absolutely no intention of following you.” Rills
the oldest said, as if intentionally taking advantage of Meena's pity.
“Do not lie. Coincidentally
passing by while hiding behind bushes and streams?” Bara arc end
directed at the neck of the old River. He threatened, made sure they understood
if only Meena and Kyra could be fooled. Bara and Soli don't
expectantly. Both men have knowledge. Has a very alert nature
and there is no doubt about killing.
“Please first, Bara.
Look at them so scared they hug each other. Maybe I'm afraid not
dare to go through the open road.” Kyra pulls Bara's hand, moving the bow's end away
gold from the neck of the old River.
In a moment, the team
it's like they're split in two. Meena pulls Kyra to her side to defend Son
River. Bara and Soli are in one camp. Both look very
emotion. I wonder why the two girls are so gullible. Kyra
indeed its nature, well this Meena even followed suit.
take Kyra near them.” Bara.
“Who will listen
criminals like you!” However, Meena refused. He poked his tongue, hugged Kyra
as Bara pulls the fire girl to his side. At that moment, a River Child
the one behind Meena pulled out a knife that was pointed at
meena's back.
His movements are so fast.
However, Soli was faster. The expert sneaking in the squad they had moved to
beside Meena. He grabs the knife, pushing Meena and Kyra into Bara's arms.
“You are still thinking
they have no evil intentions?” Soli's question sounded like a voice of wrath,
make Meena mute.
So a bunch of kids
The river turned against them, Soli immediately took a position. He kills
their leader quickly, threw his corpse to scare the rest of the group.
“Tell me, what you want
you guys!” It's impossible to just hunt. Because usually, the River Child will
escape when aware of their prey is stronger than them. This is so weird.
Clearly their difference in strength was too far away, but a group of occupants
the water still insisted on attacking them until they forced themselves
pretend in front of Meena and Kyra.
“La-ran!” Riverboys
escape to Mineral Lake. They didn't even turn around when Soli
kill their friend who was left behind.
“It's enough, they've already
escape.” Kyra breaks away from Bara. He held Soli in custody when his partner
it wanted to kill a young River Child who had fallen while fleeing. His friends
he ran away and died, leaving him there alone. Sitting on top
the ground with a body trembled in fear.
“They almost killed
Miss Meena. What do Miss Kyra think, they still deserve to be forgiven?” Kyra can't
denying, but he also could not. The only River left
looks like a little kid.
“Tak what. I wasn't hurt.
Just forgiving one small child is no big deal.” Meena understood
kyra Mean. He leaves Bara, accompanying Kyra to a fight with Soli.
“I'll answer all
questions you. Please, let me live.”
“You better answer
honestly!” Soli clucked in annoyance, throwing the Rivers at the Bara. Him
starting to feel sick of having to look after those naive girls. They can only
troublesome, can not see the situation and likes to be kind.
“Look, you guys
make it emotional.” Bara reminds me of Meena and Kyra. He's worried about Soli
losing patience and forgetting tasks.
“Leave it. If not
likes, he can return to the palace.” If only back to the palace Bara as well
happy, but what if the opposite effect? This is why Bara can't
stop watching Meena. This one midget always makes him anxious.
“Meena, grow up a little.”
After saying so, Bara left Meena to go interrogate
River Children.
Meena thought silently
last words of Bara. He knew he was always in trouble
and Bara always purposely relented to her, but it was all part of
a character he cannot control easily. Meena just can't
holding back when he doesn't like something.
***
After the bar is finished
questioning the River Child, he let the green creature go free. The four of them
continue the journey and just rest after the Mineral Lake is no longer
be seen.
They light a fire
bonfires. Sit in a circle around the campfire. “Start now
we need to be more careful. Especially you, Meena.” The first one first
vocalizing. Nothing yet, she already pissed Meena off.
“You really think I am
unreliable.” Meena threw away her face, making an atmosphere between them
awkward back.
“What this has to do with
what did the River Child say?” So Kyra tried to melt the atmosphere.
Because he feels weird. If only the problem is unreliable or too
off guard, he should be the one being reminded.
“You're right. Yang
ordered them is Goddess Nuwa, one of the concubines of Nakula.” The goddess Nuwa is
the half-snake woman who was the ruler of the Mineral Lake. Reportedly after
appointed as a concubine, the King made a tunnel under the connected lake
up to the palace courtyard so that he can move freely back to his territory
whenever he wants.
Just by listening
just Meena understood. Shra broke his promise to

Minerals are pretty close. It does not rule out the possibility that Syra and Goddess Nuwa have been

“Shortly words, he wants
kill Meena before King Nakula announces Meena's position as Queen.”
Women's jealousy is terrible. Just because they can't be
number one in the King's heart, they won't let anyone else fill in either
that position.
“I know, fast or
slow this will happen.” Soli sighed. This time it was the trial of Goddess Nuwa
fail, but there is always a name next time. It could be, there are more than
one concubine sent a man to kill Meena.
“It wasn't my fault! Stupid concubine
that's the jealousy of the unclear.” Meena pretends not to care. In her heart
the most restless. He is not the only one being targeted. His friends
will also be involved later.
“I know, but you keep
must be careful.” Meena nodded, closing her eyes as Bara rubbed
her head. Want to fight like anything, they always get along without
need to apologize to each other.
Their journey is new
it has only begun, but the accompanying problems will be endless. This incident
making Kyra open her eyes a little. He realized, if this happened to Meena, then
it was only a matter of time that happened to him as well. When that time comes and he still is
so weak, he might lose his precious friend.
