PUTRI ALAM (24 Days In the Land of Freshness)

Chapter 3

"For the first time I've negotiated in my life. Because it is usually boro-boro for negotiation, finding a discount is easier in my opinion. But this time, I have to negotiate with a pack of wolves."

- Airli Putri Awardani

☘️☘️☘️

Airli walked through the forest at a slow pace. His eyes continued to sweep around him. Seeking someone who might help him.

After the tiger had gone away from him, Airli tried to walk through the forest. Seeking to find settlements. Because he wanted to ask about this place and how to get back home.

Airli grabbed a flat object from inside her bag. It turned out that his bag was also dragged into this place, along with the contents as well.

Airli tried to check where he was at this time, from his phone. Unfortunately, the network in this place does not exist. Airli scrolled his phone for a while. But Airli felt there was a gaffe here.

"It's still 12:10," murmured Airli astonished.

"Look at me, it was in the room at 12:05. I feel like I've been in this place for almost three hours, but why does it only add up to five minutes?" Tanya and thought Airli was astonished.

Because Airli felt that he had walked far enough in this forest. Even he also felt his legs begin to ache, due to walking too far. Remembering her who had never walked far before. But strangely here, why time seems to run so slowly on his phone.

Airli breathed a tired sigh. Then decided to rest for a moment, straightening his legs that began to feel pain. Airli opened his bag, trying to find something edible from inside there. But nil, there is nothing in his bag other than writing supplies and some books of his student record.

"I'm really hungry. Where there is no more food," complained Airli in a slow tone. His strength was also almost exhausted due to walking a long time ago.

Airli closed the bag again, closing the open zipper. Then put the bag back on. Suddenly though.

A dove fell on Airli's thigh. And that surprised Airli.

"Astagfirullah," he was shocked.

Airli grabbed the bird, it was seen that the bird was so difficult to profit from rising from its position. As if I was holding back the pain. Airli helped the bird to stand up, but a second later he fell again.

"You why? You're hurt, aren't you?" ask and answer Airli when he saw there was blood flowing on the left leg of the dove.

Airli put the bird back, then grabbed a small purse from inside his bag. It turned out that the small wallet contained a P3K tool that Airli always carried everywhere.

"So soon, I'll treat you first." Soft Pinta Airli. Then his hand shrewdly cleaned the pigeon's wound and wrapped it with a bandage.

"Done," said Airli with a smile.

"Thank you Princess" said the bird.

This time Airli was no longer surprised to hear the bird talking to him. But that made him confused, why the bird called him by his middle name. After all, as long as he's here, no one knows the full name of Airli. Remembering her who has not met anyone.

"My name is Airli not a princess" Airli told the pigeon.

"I want to call you Princess." Strictly the bird.

"Why?"

"Because only a princess can talk to animals." Answer the pigeon.

"I'm not a princess" Airli argued directly.

"I'm just a stranger who just came to this place."

"I knew. From the way the princess treated me it looked so different to the people in the land of Tawar. In this country humans treat animals always use plants that they concoct into medicine or oil. But what did the princess give me this liquid?. Why is it like blood?" say and ask the pigeon at length.

Airli stumbled to hear the pigeon's ramble.

"Why is the Princess daydreaming?" ask the pigeon

Make Airli back awake.

"Ah engga, I was amazed. A pigeon, can speculate like a human. You seem to know a lot about living things in this place." Airli.

"Of course, because the pigeons are the smartest and most loyal animals in the land of Tawar. Therefore, the pigeons here are made as human messengers and are not often used as spies or spies."

"But I am not one of the scout pigeons or messengers. I'm not attached to any human being, because I prefer freedom." The pigeons are obviously long.

Airli tried to digest every sentence that the pigeon explained.

"Then, what makes you hurt like this?" Ask Airli while stroking the pigeon's wings.

"There's someone who's hunting animals like him. And the energy he unleashed accidentally hit me, until I finally bounced into a tree. Until I got this far." Obviously the pigeon.

Airli was about to respond to the words of the pigeon, but Airli was startled by a wolf who had been in front of them for some time.

Airli was petrified, his eyes met the eyes of the wolf. The wolf continued to stare at Airli, even this time it started walking. Airli can feel his heartbeat has raced twice than usual. Airli took a long breath.

Then suddenly.

"Yahoooooooooo!!!!" Airli shouted so loudly to the wolf, hoping to surprise the wolf.

And it seemed that it was paying off, The wolves immediately ran away from their place.

Airli got up from his seat, holding the pigeon with a proud smile on his face.

"It's only in teriakin have escaped. huuu." Cibir Airli to the wolf who had gone out of nowhere.

"Don't be happy!" Pigeon chant. Sontak made the smile Airli shriveled.

"Wolves are never alone. They're grouping. It could be that the wolf had left not out of fear, but because it wanted to call its group to let it know that there was prey here." Obviously The Pigeon.

And of course his words immediately made the fur of Iuduk Airli stand. How not, just one wolf has made himself ketar-ketir earlier. How about two, three, four or even more than that.

"Duhh. We're in danger then" cried Airli began to panic.

"Hurry up and run here" attacked the pigeon as well.

Airli according. The airli instantly passed from that place. But unfortunately luck was not on his side. Just a few meters away, Airli was stopped by a wolf in front of him.

"Relax Airli," Airli tried to be calm. He turned his body to run in the other direction.

Still about to step up, it turned out that there was already another wolf in front of him on this side. Followed by two tail behind him.

"Haaii. wolf," said Airli as he waved his hand. It was like meeting an old friend.

"Mission yes. I'm not disturbing. Some of my meat is not good at eating, and there is even diarrhea," Airli said innocently.

Unfortunately, Airli's words did not change the gaze of the four wolves.

"Give up, we'll eat you." Hearing that, Airli directly rounded her eyeballs.

"Ehh... don't dong!!! My meat is not good. Mostly eat a lot of meat and high blood. So, eat vegetables and fruit. There's a banana tree there." Said and suggested Airli, while pointing at a banana tree that looks to be ten meters away from where Airli is standing at this time.

"When do wolves eat bananas? You think they're monkeys" pigeon chirped suddenly.

"Shutttt. You know, it's a vegetarian wolf or maybe it's on a diet." Sahut Airli explained.

"Have you not talked much?!" said one of the wolves. "We're hungry" he explained again in a cold voice.

And sure enough two wolves just jumped straight at Airli.

"HOPE UP!!!" shouted the pigeon.

And Airli followed his orders. But alas, the other wolves directly attacked Airli.

Sreeeeetttttt

The wolf hit Airli's arm. Making the clothes cloth on his shoulder slightly torn, and the skin of his arm slashed by his nails. Even the Hijab Airli was irregular.

Airli grimaced sickly.

"Aisssshhhhh. HELP!!!" shouted Airli suddenly.

"PLEASE!!! HELP ME!!! WHOEVER HELP!!!"

But no one came near. Until finally Airli was hit by a severe attack.

Bruuukkk....

Airli was attacked by the Wolf. His body fell down right on top of the small branches around him. The wolf's claw was also on his leg.

The dove was also trying to fight, by flying to attack one of the wolves there even though with great difficulty. Remembering her who was also still injured.

But still the difference in strength between pigeons and wolves is clearly visible here. Eventually the pigeon fell back into the tree.

"Auu.. shhhhhhh, O Allah haaahhhh sshhh haaaahhhh," Airli grimaced with the pain in her legs and arms.

All the wolves were walking towards Airli. The four of them looked at Airli with hungry gazes. Airli tried to crawl backwards, but he was restrained by a large tree.

"Please!!! Help!!!" Airli asked for help.

"Please!!!"

"Please!!!"

Airli felt the pain in his body becoming more and more. Even this time his head started to turn. His sight began to disappear. Even though it's getting weaker. With a weak voice Airli kept asking for help.

Until the time the wolf was about to bite Airli, suddenly....

Huuuuuussssssssssss

Bruckkkkk......

The four wolves were immediately knocked down from in front of Airli. But they immediately got up, but strangely they immediately left because of fear.

Although her gaze was unclear, Airli could see a teenage youth walking up to her. Maybe this young man threw out the wolf earlier. This young man reminded Airli of his sister. It's just that the clothes he wears are like the clothes of young men in colossal films that Airli often watches.

"He hurt the teacher" he said. It was as if talking to someone in front of him.

Airli had not yet turned his head towards the young man's gaze. Airli was unconscious. Airli fainted.

"He fainted teacher."

"Take him to the academy!!" said a woman.
