Red Blood
Krairon - Erga (cf)
“About seven years ago,” said Larga told me, “Werewolf occupies a leadership position from Middle Earth. With the extinction of the Vampires from the kingdom they had been leading together, making Werewolf could freely go in and out of the five great kingdoms. Erga country was a very beautiful green land, everything is alive and heartwarming for anyone who visits.”
“Even for the Werewolf, they arrived at our land peacefully and were warmly welcomed by King Liantar, the leader of the old Erga. The main purpose he visited initially wanted to cooperate with us, he wanted to do research on the natural conditions in this country for the purposes in his kingdom, because in the Middle Earth kingdom green land filled with trees and water is getting thinner because their industry advanced rapidly in the last two years after Werewolf came to power.”
“If agree, they will also share their knowledge as well as some of their findings that may be useful for the prosperity of our nation. Erga has always lived more primitive than other countries because they do not need the times, as sophisticated as the future will still not affect them."
"But they also had no reason to reject the invitation of the Werewolf king. So with a heart without suspicion in the least we two nations inhabitants of this kingdom agree to the cooperation.”
“King Werewolf left one of them to stay here researching. The werewolf was named Istara, he claimed to be the smartest among his people."
"As an arrival gift, Istara offers a serum. He said, ‘wahi the Great Erga, let me offer you all a versatile serum to make life easier for all of you.’"
“But the serum was immediately rejected by Erga raw because they did not need. Make what? All supplies are provided by nature. Again, they are not affected by the times."
"Because it did not sell, he offered it to us, he himself came to us directly into the ground, ‘nation Krairon, ' he said, 'I know how much you all love to work. Well with this serum you do not have to worry anymore, you can work a full week without rest. Enough sleep two to three hours once a week then your energy will not be endless.”’
“We Krairon people really like to work and hate when exhausted until they have to rest all. Because living in the ground, the day is not a problem for us. We only work when the energy is still strong and rest when exhausted."
"Hear the saying of Istara, many of us were influenced to buy the serum. It's just that because the price is very expensive, those who have more treasures can afford it. But ironically it is precisely we who can not buy this is what can survive.”
“What Istara said is true. The serum makes those who wear it very prim. Like a tireless buffalo, for a week you can continue to work non-stop without resting at all. Mining jobs also become very easy to do. Everything went well until two years later.”
“After two years passed, the side effects of the serum began to appear. Their behavior began to be aggressive, not wanting to eat vegetables but preferring raw meat, even no longer want to live in the soil because it can not stand the heat of the air below."
"One-by-one of them started crawling out the surface and hunting down all the animals they encountered. Strange bumps grow on the body over time from the bulge turns into an extra hand. Teeth become sharp and grow irregularly. Until finally they look like monsters that Taring wanted to meet earlier."
"After the animals are gone, they begin to prey on their own countrymen, which are still conscious of the body soul. That's why we fled here, this is the last remnant of our people. On the other side of the mountain there are still about twenty people.”
“Wait a minute,” Taring refuted, “then how did Erga also get the same effect if they did not use that serum?”
“Because the serum was rejected by the Erga, Istara used a sneaky way. He spread the serum throughout the land surface of this country so that when Erga sucked nutrients from the soil inevitably the serum will be consumed. That's why they became what they are today. This area of green grass is the safest place from the monsters because this place is closest to the sun when it rises. They all hate the sunshine.”
“Wicked is exactly what those Werewolves did. Where is the person responsible for all this?”
“Istara? He became the leader of all those killer monster creatures. The base was inside the valley, there was a castle where he conducted experiments. For some reason with that Werewolf, all the monsters out there worship him. We still don't know how he can control them all.”
Fun to tell a story together, suddenly there was the sound of a small moan from the direction of the back hall. Taring almost forgot that there was a person he knew lying there, Ilfina began to wake up. His lungs slowly filled the air quietly resuscitating his eyes, ears, nose and other senses. Once all was functioning properly, his eyes caught the figure of a giant worm with a human body.
“Aaaaa!!” Ilfina was hysterically shouting.
Dboom up!
The fangs did not understand what caused the girl to go berserk. It was a very unnatural act for a person who had just woken up from fainting.
As soon as he visited Ilfina, his face was still as pale as before unless his strength had fully recovered. His right hand was raised extremely high while holding a flute, there was a kind of purplish aura surrounding him. As soon as Taring was about to get close, he accidentally struck the purplish invisible energy. Ilfina was using her protective magic.
“Hei Ilfina, calm down you are safe now,” Taring shouted.
“Taring ..?” Slowly Ilfina began to recognize the man with long hair.
He then removed the magic and brought himself closer to Taring hiding as if all the long-nosed creatures in front would eat him alive. His reaction at the moment was really cute like a child taking refuge in fear behind the body of the father.
“Taring, where are we? What really happened?”
“You're better? They're the Krairon people, who saved us. And the man you attacked earlier, he was the one who had been taking care of you until we woke up.”
Ilfina's big eyes blinked a few times, “really? Oh so this is what the nation of Krairon.” looks like
Slowly Ilfina came out from behind the body of the Fingers in shame. That shy reaction is really sweet if done by someone as beautiful as her, “sorry everyone, I don't mean insolent. I had a trauma with a worm so I was just freaking out, pure accident.”
“Oh is okay,” said Larga forward approaching friendly. Ilfina's body was still trembling the moment she met him, “many said so when they first met us. That's why on the surface we never take off our protective helmets. Are you better now?”
“Well, I'm fine. Is this really Erga's kingdom?”
Larga nodded. After that brief tension, they all returned to the hall. Ilfina joined by being treated to some bread and warm tea water. He ate it voraciously while timidly remembering he had just thrown the person who had taken care of him, and that person was now just sitting staring at Ilfina sharply with bandaged hands. Larga repeated what happened to his beloved country like he told Taring earlier.
Ilfina listened carefully. He was concerned about the evil actions of the Werewolves who could perform such demonic class actions. Those who still have a human heart will never commit a crime that even the devil himself has no reference to do.
“Yes, you are not the only one who experienced bitter events with them,” finally a petite woman who had just sat quietly talking as well.
“You ...,” Ilfina tried to guess, “you are from the Lilua nation right? What are you doing here?”
“Together with you I guess. Escape.”
Ilfina didn't connect with the conversation. As if telepathically, he simply nodded while smiling wryly in return.
“Nah Ilfina, you brought us here. Next what should we do?” This time it was Taring's turn to ask.
Ilfina put down the teacup, she took a slow breath then said steadily, “We must help them overcome the problems in this country.”
