The Adventure Of Lord Lausius

Episode 101's

Tracing the road to the North brings the three to a beach. Sean did not know that in the middle of the forest like this there is a beach that borders directly with the forest. The sand was brownish in color, there was a large wooden boat wrecked on the left side. The boat may have been hit by a beach wave and then hit a tree, while in the middle of the beach that is not so far from the bay, there are three stones that form a pole.

The three stones are close to each other. In each of the stones standing upright it was connected by a large chain. Each of them seemed shackled, the possibility of something there. Or, there was something in the water, under those three stone pillars.

Sean's eyes were looking. On the right of the three of them there are rock cliffs, the sweep of the beach waves sometimes up to the third foot. While under the rock...... Oh, Jessica's mouth was wide open.

"Is that a fish?" Jessica saw him like a whale. The size was enormous, there were vertical lines all over his body. "It looks like it's the carcass of a whale?" he's sure it's a whale. Big fish is blue sea, there are fins. They are more than the size of an adult elephant.

As Jessica's eyes squinted to make sure it was exactly what she saw. The two people next to him first approached the carcass.

"Can you predict when he's dead, son?" Gordon asked Sean. Sean's face was too flashy, so the fat man was sure that the boy was a genius.

"I thought he died not long ago" Sean said. He examined the entire body of this huge fish. "The smell of rotting has not been too stinging. Maybe tomorrow this body starts to swell up" he said.

The body of the big fish is rather slippery, when touched, the mucus is still on the surface of the skin. Her teeth were also quite fresh. The belly of the big fish had been torn, and its internal organs were also visible.

"Is this the road to the North, Sean?" From a few feet away, Jessica said.

Sean just followed the words of the spirits. Nor did he know that the beach was the end of their journey to the North.

"Is it possible that the spirit you're referring to wants us to cross this beach?" Gordon voiced his idea. "Or are those useless spirits trying to deceive you? And I just found out if there's a place like this in this dead town. I'm just going down and down the road at the end of the village, not to the extent that it goes or leaves the housing of the population."

As Gordon recalled, he had never climbed a mound of land that resembled a small hill. Moreover, entering the forest, even he did not know too much about the temple within the forest.

"I think the four pillar guard spirits really want to cheat" Jessica said in response to Gordon's words.

"Ehm......" Gordon again seemed to be thinking hard. "Is it possible that this beach is a path that is often used by traders from the outside world to stop here?" gordon speculated. He saw the shipwreck that had been wrecked leaving the weathered wood. There was a flag symbolizing the birds and there was also a sword in the middle. The sword formed a cross, then the bird settled down between the swords.

The flag was still standing upright even though it was tilted downwards. The bright red flag fluttered following the wind from the sea. And inside the shipwreck that capsized there were some skulls. Maybe the skull of the crew, it could have been. This fat man concluded that the bodies that had left the skeletons of bones had long died. Long before he came, or it could be when the slaughterers came to this place.

This man had unconsciously thought a bit ahead. He is usually lazy to think. Oh, rather, he likes to rely on the brains of others in finding things. His skills are only fighting. He can't be restrained if he's angry.

"I found this," Sean interrupted. He showed what he had just encountered from the carcass of the aquatic animal to both of them.

Jessica rushed over, she wanted to know what Sean found. "What is this Sean?" Jessica just saw this thing this time. "That's weird!"

"Like a candle holder tray," Sean replied guessing. It looks like a lotus flower. Made whether it was from gold or not, Sean had no idea. To be sure, it was like gold, rather heavy. On the edge of the tray the size of this flat bowl, there are protruding indentations.

"I've seen it, but I forgot where I've met this thing!"

Gordon snatching. The thing in Sean's hand seemed familiar to him in his memory.

Sean came to think hard, he remembered where he had seen similar objects. Like a stranger in Sean's memory, though vaguely unclear. How hard Sean thought where he had seen her, still. It was all a rage, not even knowing what it was.

"I also like I've seen this thing," Jessica also realized that it was familiar to her eyes. "I tried to remember it first. I can probably remember when I saw it."

Sean paced back and forth to find out what he found in the belly of the big fish carcass. Honestly, Sean had seen it at a glance. He tried to recall where he had encountered this golden tray.

"Oh," Sean snapped his finger. "I remember."

"Do you remember what Sean was?" Jessica snatched. "Say. Do you remember anything about this little tray?"

"Obviously I remember" Sean replied seriously. "You remember the first time we got lost in this forest?" Sean is talking to Jessica.

Jessica nodded. "I remember, of course" he answered. "Initially we got lost in the cave at that time. Meet a wild wolf and a big bear while looking for Eed. I remember that...... We're...... Ah, yes, we met with Yudhar the forest man in the cave of the remnants of the mine."

"That's right," Sean flicked his finger again. "At that time we were in a temple all made of gold. When we looked for a way out of that golden temple, we accidentally found a candle holder similar to this tray. And I'm sure, maybe this tray is the lead."

Gordon's big hand held Sean's shoulder, the two boys talking without him. "What are you saying? Why not discuss it with me?" This big man really did not want to miss the mysterious conversation of the two children.

"We've found a way out" Sean said. "Stay looking for where we should look for other clues."

"I think the clue's around here?" Jessica says. He said take initiative. Unlike usual, now Jessica at least began to understand an enigmatic mystery. Sean passed on the idea of solving his mystery to the little girl.

"Right, we have to look for other clues around here" Sean agreed with Jessica.

This bearded man just nodded. Not knowing if he could help or not, he was reluctant to comment. But he doesn't understand anything, really. "Young souls like them should be more genius than I am the walking bear." This man secretly thanks quietly without the knowledge of children who are busy here and there looking for clues.

Ah, he had to pretend to take part in the search for road leads. Or the kids will think he's useless at all. Although he was lazy to act at that time, at least Gordon went here and there looking for clues as well. He acted perfectly in front of the two children.

Sometimes he opened the cracks of the shipwreck. Dismantling it, looking at the contents within the skeleton of this floating object. Sometimes also turn the ship, who knows there is a secret clue he behind the body of the ship that has been overturned. But the result was nothing, he found nothing. Just... skull only, and..... He saw there were some wooden barrels. It may be used as a fish container. Fishing boat.

Then move check on that lifeless slimy guy. Sometimes he saw two children who were looking at the grass. More over there Sean and Jessica open the bushes, maybe there's something slipping between them. Oh, this fat bear really felt crazy and frustrated back then. In fact, he had repeatedly scratched the organs in the big fish, but the results were also empty.

When they are caught off guard, look for something that is somehow less certain. Suddenly the water near the beach, between the three poles was rotating to form a vortex.

Sean who was a bit away from the shoreline realized there was something behind him.

"What is a whirlpool? Water whirring?"

"That's it" Sean replied. His hand pointed to the shore, towards that powerful Whirling whirlpool. "On the beach, there's a vortex."

The two friends were unconscious, after Sean said about the whirlpool. Both of them turned towards the beach.

"What is this, Mr. Mattress? Why did the water suddenly become bumpy like this?" Jessica was getting worried. He needs to be vigilant.

The fat man squinted his eyes. Seeing clearly what came out of such a terrible whirlpool.

And something came out of it. It's a tentacle, Gordon sees it like a tentacle with a membrane on the sides of those tentacles as a rodent to stick to the rocks.

"What is that thing?" gordon said the first time he saw her.

"That's tentacle. The animal tentacles are approaching us, Sean," cried Jessica in a panic hunt. "We'd better run away from here."

The tentacle came out of the whirlpool. Followed by a large head. "Giant Gurita" yes, that's what the fat man saw from the beach. His long tentacles began to extend inland. Maybe he wants to catch them. It could be that he knows there are prey around the beach.

The fat man was quite nimble, as fast as he could get away from the shoreline. The two boys who were glued together, he picked up. Their bodies are light, so it is easy to carry them. Cotton sack tub.

Gordon took the two boys back into the woods. The tentacle that tried to catch him earlier, wanted to reach the body of the fat one. But it didn't work, because it was blocked by trees. So that some trees on the beach were uprooted by tentacles that gripped tightly.

THE MOARK!! It sounds like ...... At first glance, like buffalo, elephants are also tigers. It is likely that this great creature was the guardian of the beach.

Because of a run that felt quite far away, Gordon stopped in the middle of the path just above the mound of the descending road. The place where they had stopped for a moment saw the carvings on the stone. Gordon took a seat on the rock. His breathing was running out, he was gasping, his chest hurt as he carried the two children.

"You okay?" sean asked worried.

"I'm fine" he replied, taking a deep breath. "Just a little tired."

"Oh, thank goodness. I thought you were why!"

While running, the small object that Sean found was still held in his hand. At first glance the idea of finding a way out flashed in Sean's mind.

"I think I've found a way out?" Sean began to realize. While sitting on the stone carving the images, Sean finally got the idea.

"really?" Jessica was the first to respond. He is very passionate, like ****** who wants to receive food rations. "Say, where's the way out?"

Sean remembered, then explained. "So when we were on that beach. I saw the same stone as the one on the tree" he said, pointing at the tree behind Jessica. Two trees crossed the boulder where Gordon rested his back.

"really? You're not wrong, are you?"

"No. I'm right this time," Sean said convincingly. "The stone stream on the shore indicates that this thing must be lit with a candle. Then put it back in the small waterfall that we went through earlier. It may be true that the waterfall is the way out. There are certain ciphers from the images they engrave on the stone."

"But how do we find the candle, Sean?" whining Jessica. "You know yourself. There's no lighting on a night like this."

That's true what Jessica said. Sean thought of the same idea. Here there are no candles, obviously Sean will be confused how to find a way out if there is no candle.

The little thing he held was the same as the one in the golden temple in the cave some time ago. If you put a candle on it, there will be an open way out. That's the mechanism. Just like the one in the golden temple, where the three statues were the opening of the exit.

Sean stared at the sweaty face of the exhausted looking man. Sean can't count on him. This fat man alone was already on the verge of dying of breath, how could he possibly have such a brilliant idea. When Sean saw the large body, his sharp eyes accidentally saw something shining behind the large body of this bear man.

"What is that thing that shines behind you?" sean said to Gordon.

"There's nothing. Except for the stone" replied Gordon lethargic.

"No, I'm right. There's something shining behind that grass."

Sean is a forger. This big man followed his words. He fumbled at the clump that was almost devouring this strange carved stone image. As Gordon fumbled, there was something there. It was on his butt, like there was a long, hard thing. When he picked it up, there was a box that was almost covered in ice. Then, there was a stick similar to a fire torch but it seemed to be made of steel and a mixture of silver.

"What is this thing?" jessica was confused. He stared at the object Sean and Gordon had just found.

"You're right, son. It's a box of candles and a streetlight belonging to the residents."

"Lighting devices?" Jessica repeated. "Why is it so strange? Are you sure this is a streetlight?" Jessica is not sure. It looked like a child's toy, it was about the length of an elbow. Like an elongated ice cream spot and at the end of it like a red diamond, on the other side there is a blue color.

"This thing is made of natural gems. Residents here make it from a mixture of various gems, so this object will shine when in use." Gordon tells fiber to explain.

"But how will he light up?"

"It's easy" replied Gordon. He was shaking that thing. Until there's light coming out of this end. Great, similar to modern lighting tools. "Instead, right?"

Jessica nodded. "What a great thing," he said muttering in amazement.

"We'd better get to that waterfall right now." Sean stopped the astonishment of the two people.
