Red Blood
The Divulgarea de Sine (V)
“Say Youth,” says the giant who is looking at Taring, “are you a Vampire?”
“Do you think?”
“Of course from your appearance is no doubt. It's just that I doubt it, because the Vampires went extinct ten years ago.”
“....”
“Unless you're the last vampire lost on the night of your birth ten years ago. Son of Kysta Vampirelia Astarius.”
“That's my father's name?”
As soon as all the giants who were present there paid their respects to the small creature in front of them, “welcome to Brodella's country, O Prince.”
“Alright, you guys don't have to flatter me that much. Who are you guys? Why so big?”
“We are known by many names, Titan, Troll, Tsamud, and the like. But we prefer to be called Broden ourselves. We are only ordinary humans given larger bodies because we bear the honorable duty of our ancestors. My name is Lunda, I am a kind of leader here.”
“Oh .. do you live in this mountain? I see a lot of big holes.”
“There is a saying in the book that reads, ‘they used to sculpt the mountains and live in them.’ Ever heard? We are what is meant. But honestly the hole is just the entrance, let's follow me to see the real magic.”
The fangs return to normal human beings without wings. He and all of Broden one by one entered into the pit that was on the mountain wall on foot in a row. All of Broden wore simple clothes in the form of cloth that was involved in the body in light white. Ihram clothes when going to Hajj. The fangs are like little children when walking with these giants. He thought the height of these Brodens was about ten meters earlier, but after being seen up close they were almost ten times the size of him. Incredibly large size.
But their bodies were not the only ones that were magical, once out of the cave, Taring saw there was a huge valley. Inside the valley was a very beautiful city. The buildings are very large and beautiful with architecture full of high art. It's very modern.
“Welcome to my country!”
“Woah..
Huge. Everything in this city is gigantic. Trees, flower plants, there is a kind of arrangement of flowing water formed in a circular fashion down and up following the principle of gravity which is also very large, certainly makes anyone who looks stunned amazed. Birds, butterflies and even insects have a super size instead of playing. Butterflies alone are the size of kites that are usually played by children.
“Very amazing,” Taring unceasingly gaped in amazement.
She noticed the footing place of her walking which was also no less beautiful. The floor is shiny white hard but not from metal layers, there is a little elastic element when stepped on by the foot. Oh yes, strangely even with such a modern world, Broden no one wears footwear. All the feet on the floor were naked.
While walking down the path he was walking, Taring was surprised to see a very large animal passing along with a Broden. The animal is also very large, sharp pointed teeth and has small hands. The skin is similar to a lizard.
“Jeez, what creature is it?”
“Oh greetings Elders Lundar.” The animal's master told Broden's leader.
“Salam Inggro, walking with your pet?”
“Well, the weather is sunny right now, don't waste it. We know the sun is fast disappearing lately.”
After saying that Inggro passed by taking in the monstrous creature he called the pet earlier.
“Well, I told you there's a reason why our bodies are so big, right? Because we have a duty to organize the Antalopharga beast, the big beast you saw earlier. Some people call the animal a dinosaur. If no one takes care of wild and large animals like them, the food chain of the animals in this place will be very chaotic and will have an effect on other animal ecosystems outside the valley.”
“Oh so.”
Taring ushered Lundar in front of a very large building with a circular roof full of glass in the middle of the city. It was easy to guess that the magnificent place was his palace which he was very proud of.
“Everyone who comes to my place always shows a look of admiration like you do Taring. I never get tired of seeing it, this is my pride in being Broden. Welcome to my palace.”
Once again Taring said, “woah.”
Once inside the palace, Lunda announces the arrival of the Vampire prince, Taring as the guest of honor. This time was truly a normalized guest as it should not have been like the terrible experience he had in the village before. The Broden flocked to bring the banquet in large numbers. The meat and drinks are very much in the size of the jumbo continues to flock to the throne belongs to Lunda in the middle of the room.
When preparing for the party, Taring was pulled by one of the maids who must have a very large size to the room on the right side of the palace. He was treated to some kind of extra clothes because the fangs from earlier were just bare-chested. His clothes were destroyed because he went berserk last night, while his own armor was left behind in the Southwest Village.
About ten minutes of changing clothes, Taring came out with a new and fresh feel to look at. He looked calmer with a white cloth all over his body like a monk with matching hair. Once inside the central hall, an enormous trumpet sounded in unison welcoming his arrival.
“Our people! Today we have a special guest. The Vampire Prince, the only remaining descendant of Vampires, let's welcome, Taring! Come join us here.”
The fangs lowered their heads in greeting to all present. He walked towards the chair beside Lunda which was already full of food on the table in large portions. While enjoying a meal, there was a kind of performance in the middle of the hall by some acrobatic Broden cast. Accompanied by songs from poets and beautiful music gives a very pleasant feel for lunch.
The Vampire boy clapped his hands while chewing on the thighs of the chicken saw the slick show of these agile giants. Despite their large stature, their movements are very agile and also very flexible. Not inferior to other nations. The fangs became curious, who was this ancestor of them? He never knew there was such a diverse nation of the six great nations that he had known.
“Bravo! Bravo!” The leader of Lundar, applauded his appreciation for the great show he had just witnessed.
“Say Taring, is your current age still ten years?”
“It may be difficult for Elder Lundar to believe in my body like this, but well, it is indeed true.”
“No, I believe it. The size and shape of the body do not affect a person's age. The proof, the size of our nation's baby at birth is much larger than your current body, right?”
“Hahaha, that's right. I've been living in the woods alone since I was a baby. I never knew there was a place as beautiful as your country, Elder Lundar. I'm flattered.”
“Oh, you visited here in a timely manner so as to see only the bright side of my country. Every light there is a shadow. I cover the dark side here by showing splendor and beauty. Although many happy faces full of smiles like you witnessed earlier, we are actually in serious trouble.”
“What problem is it?”
“I tell you the facts about us Broden. We love the sun. Every day we are happy to walk in the sun even barefoot because the sun gives us strength. Our skin does not turn black due to ultraviolet heat, but instead we get additional energy from the sun.”
“We all know that at this time Bourga, the Werewolf king is planning to make the night immortal. There are many who disagree with him, including us Broden people. We are among those who depend a lot on the sun. That's why, on the outside you saw a face full of joy seeing Broden sunbathing with their pets.”
“With the state of the world as it is now we have a little difficulty. Not to mention the way the Werewolf led was more oppressive than helpful. Many wanted to remove him from the throne. But all are hopeless because the Vampires - the only ones who can stop Werewolves - have gone extinct.”
“But now the world has hope again. With your presence, the chance to get rid of Bourga becomes possible. Many think that you are the Chosen One, will be the savior of the oppressed.”
“Sorry Elder, I didn't catch where this talk was going.”
“What I want to say is, my people believe that it is you that we have been waiting to be the savior. You are the Chosen One.”
“....”
“But sorry, thousands of times I'm sorry. It is not that I do not believe, it is just that you will the Prince of Taring take the test from us Broden? Just to know, if it passes, means that the prophecy is indeed true you are the Chosen One.”
“I don't understand Elder, why do I have to prove all that to you? I mean, there's no point in me passing or not passing that exam. If indeed the destiny of the prophecy as you said it was true, then that is what it will be. A test proves nothing. I myself want to live my life quietly without being controlled by others.”
“Sorry, I understand exactly what you're saying. But please, for a decade we've been expecting someone who can save us, save others from Werewolf atrocities. At the very least, we still have a benchmark to whom to hope even if you are not a foreseen person. We are desperate not to know what else to do, at least with your presence we have something to look forward to. I beg to be a symbol of our strength to keep rising.”
Lundar lowered his head before Taring. Likewise with the other Broden, they were all in a prostrate position expecting a miracle to the Vampire with all their hearts.
Taring aware, these giants actually do not need rescuers to help them from the crisis that has occurred in a prolonged period, the, they just need something that can be evidence to be able to make them aware if there is still hope to continue living. The symbol. Hope symbol. Hope to keep up the spirit. If the Taring refused, it was tantamount to killing their resolve literally.
There was no other choice, he had to take the exam. The fangs release a white cloth wrapped around itself so as not to be damaged. The wings he took out, the long fangs he pulled out, the eyes red and poked like a tiger he showed, then stood on a chair and said, “wahi Broden all of you. I am the Vampire, the son of King Cysta. I feel your pain, but don't expect me too much because I'm not sure if I'm the Chosen One or not. Therefore, I am willing to take the test of your nation. Hopefully the results do not disappoint.”
There are two sides when one sees the Taring form in Vampire mode. The bright side, namely joy and happiness when he is present as a savior who is always awaited by everyone. Those who saw his Vampire form would cheer happily as the Broden did today. On the other hand there is a dark side, when it meets the Taring in this form, it means death. Depending on how one treats the Vampire boy, one will see the true form of him with a different perspective.
His figure appears based on the choice of a personal reflection that treats him.
