“Haduh... recently also healed, even told to exercise again.” Fang's eyes narrowed, scratching his fluffy hair.
“Indeed before no evening exercise huh?”
Fang brought his face closer to mine, looking at me. “Adrian, you see my face.” I'm nodding.
“See my face. Does my face look like I'm used to night training?” I'm shaking.
“Well it knows for itself. Where is his training in the deep forest pula.” Fang stood up. “Come, we must quickly finish the exercise. The faster, the earlier the return.”
...****...
Our training this time is not to fight, but to collect as many scattered candles as possible. It's fifteen minutes. After fifteen minutes, the bell from the tower will ring for two minutes. We are strictly forbidden to steal, take, or fight with other teams.
“Take the one on the left of it, Adrian.” Fang pointed at the candle beside the tree.
I looked up, took the candle. Pretty good, three candles at a time. “How much has Fang collected?” Fang started counting the candles in his hand, then the candles in my hand.
“Total is eleven, seems to be enough. Come on, we go straight to the tower.”
Fang walked first, I caught up behind him.
This exercise looks easy. No obstacles, fights or anything else. It's just that we have to carefully walk, because it's dark. There was no lighting, and we were not allowed to light candles.
Gong! Gong! Gong!
The sound of bells echoed loudly throughout the forest, except for the one Daisy had restricted using her power. So that the sound of bells being hit does not disturb the surrounding residents.
“Quick, Adrian! The bell is hit.” Not yet able to answer, Fang had first run towards the source of the voice.
I clutched the candle in my hand firmly, then rushed after Fang to go to the source of the sound.
...****...
We arrived in a minute. There's still no one in front of the tower gate, except me and Fang. You could say we were the first team to get to the front of this tower.
“Hai, Adrian.” Ben ran over, saying hello.
Thomi caught up with Ben from behind, her breathing roaring loudly. “Do not run so dong!”
Ben grinned while poking Thomi's chin. “You are afraid of ghosts yes.” Thomi brushed off the coke, her cheeks reddened.
“Hey you guys.” Someone suddenly jumped down. Landed in our midst.
Daisy frown, “Where is Team Abel?” We shrugged our shoulders together.
“We're here.” A few seconds later, Tetam emerged from the shadows, embracing the sleeping Abel.
Airiz appeared out of nowhere, directly throwing a small flame into Abel's shirt. Abel who was asleep, his eyes immediately became warped from the heat of the fire, jumping while patting a small fire on his shirt.
“Good, everyone has gathered. The candle you took earlier, put it on this tray.” Airiz walked back a few steps, pointing at the tray that had both of Daisy's hands.
Mine and Fang's, there are eleven in total. Thomi and Ben, eight. Daisy saw our hand that put the candle on the tray. “Tetam? You two don't carry candles at all?”
The drops just shrug their shoulders. Followed Abel who was still cleaning up his eyes. Airiz gripped her waist, shaking her head.
“Alright, training is only here. Now you can go home to each other. Or do you want to be ushered home in my power?” We nodded in unison.
Airiz smiled faintly, sighing. He began to raise his hand, transforming into a human half-eagle shrouded in flames.
“Waw... Phoenix.” Thomi's eyes stared unblinkingly.
Without asking if it was ready or not, Airiz immediately lifted us all up with his claws, flying. Daisy removes the transparent membrane she made earlier. Then he climbed onto Airiz's back.
“Ya is clearly. The phoenix is a bird whose feathers are made of fire. And usually, the fire is not hot.” Gestur Thomi is like a teacher who is an expert in the field of confinement.
Fang, and the others held back a laugh looking at Thomi who was explaining. “Heh, what? You guys are mocking me huh?” Tetam's face reddened, waving his hands, trying to hold back the laughter.
Thomi explained. His cheeks that were already red, were getting red. He held out his hands, threw away his face. It looks so angry.
...****...
Three days later, it did not feel like it had entered the festival day.
Me, Abel, and Tetam woke up late. The wall clock shows at eight. one and a half hours later the festival will begin. Abel said so.
The day we usually take a shower in turns, doing anything while waiting for our turn. But because we were urged by time, forced the three of us to take a bath together in one bathroom. The bathroom has only one.
“You undress first, Abel. New me.”
“Nake you Tetam! You go first, I'm new. I'm your brother.” Abel brushed off the hands of Tetam who was about to take off his clothes.
“How do we undress and pants together?” I mediate.
Abel and Tetam exchanged lyrics, thinking. A few moments later, they nodded. “Oke, we undress first yes. One... two... three..” We simultaneously undressed.
“Now pants.”
“One...”
“Two..”.
“Three..”.
We opened our pants. Smiling, looking at each other, looking at the other treasures.
“Hahaha...! Small even yours Abel!” The Tetam pointed at Abel's treasure while giggling.
Abel's eyebrows shrivel, “Ih, your little one also knows!” Abel immediately covered up the treasure.
“Yes, but not as small as yours, Abel.” Tetam laughed, took the dipper and flushed Abel's head.
Abel was about to reply to Tetam, but stopped. “Eh, if you have Adrian?” The hands of the Tetam who wanted to flush Abel, the reflex stopped. Then they turned to my precious assets.
Their eyes blinked. Trying several times to rub his eyes, like not believing what they saw.
“Wah... yours is huge, Adrian.” The reflex drops would touch my precious assets, but I brushed them off.
“Hey, you want to take a shower or compare your own anyway?” My tone rose, enduring the embarrassment.
They both nodded. Continuing the shower. Watering each other's heads, rubbing their backs. Several times we covered each other's hair.
Twenty minutes of shower. We ran around naked to the room, then looked for each stamp and immediately pressed the button to wear clothes.
After pressing the button, the shirt immediately came out of its stamp and automatically stuck to our body by itself.
The three of us pushed each other, looking at the clothes we were wearing. Waw. We are like children of noble families.
“Adrian, Shelf, Tetam. Let's have breakfast first.” Mother called.
Abel and I ran to the kitchen. The drops were engrossed in the mirror, to the extent that we did not feel we had gone out of the room.
Mother put the sausages and other food for breakfast this morning. Tumbens, usually not this much.
“Of course, son Adrian. Today you will go to the festival. Surely you have to fill your stomach first before going there.” Mom smiled. Sit down, have breakfast.
