The Adventure Of Lord Lausius

Episode 92

Akh!!

Sean's startled screams make Jessica and Driyad wake up. The arrival of Amuria behind him suddenly like this made him fall down to enter the bush.

In the end, tonight was not a beautiful night for Driyad to dream.

"What are you doing there?" ask Amuria to Sean. He interrogated the boy, and the four of them sat down by the fire. Surrounding the hot element, getting warmth from the night wind.

"That's.... Actually I'm.... Just wanted to pee," Sean replied nervously. He scratched his head, ashamed that this time he was lying. Sean smiled somewhat forcefully, Amuria asked too much.

"You know. In this forest, not only Amuria was alive. But there are many more creatures, "Amuria told me. "Especially the gort, they often go back and forth to and fro. Out into the woods, prey on humans, including you."

"We know that" Jessica said. "We're ready to fight the ugly creature."

"It's not as easy as you might think!"

"...... Not as easy as you imagine?" Jessica repeated the words Amuria.

Amuria knew everything in her territory's forest. He knows for a fact that the creature must be after Sean. His aura is very strong, although Amuria does not know who Sean is, Amuria must have judged that Sean is not an ordinary child.

The gort could tell which aura attracted attention and which did not. Amuria begins to doubt Sean. When he saw the boy, he saw something different. Interesting, the boy made it feel like something different.

"In this forest, you are still lucky to meet tame and friendly animals" Amuria said. He seemed to tell that only his forest was the most settled, while the others were dangerous forests. "The more you walk through this forest, the more danger you will encounter."

"For example?" Sean.

"Creatures in the dark forest!"

Sean scrunched his forehead, squinting his eyes. Staring at the fierce face of Amuria who turned out to have a heart. The creature was warm, though he was fierce and creepy.

"Why that forest? Is there something special in it?" Jessica is snatching. He began to wonder, this was what he liked the most. Creepy story.

"There are many inhabited by dangerous creatures" said Amuria.

Jessica glanced at Driyad, what the creature said turned out to be justified by Amuria. "What's that thing like, Mr Amuria?" ask Sean.

"The creature came from the tribe of Manun. They're a creepy mountain boy tribe, they suck blood and they're dwarfs." Amuria. "The creatures are men from the village of Manun. Just like the women, they turned into savages shortly after the village was destroyed by the Goddesses of Olympia. The body is like dry wood, but they

nimble.

They love to eat raw meat and anything, including animals and humans. They live under the mountain boy, in the dark cave. They have traps that can trap anyone who enters their territory" explained Amuria.

Sean thought, hearing this Amuria story, of course he had imagined that the creature was the size of a two to three year old baby.

He remembered, when there was in sadon, Dewi Handita once told of this creature.

"Then? How to free yourself from those creatures!" Sean asked now. It feels good to talk about something challenging.

"The only way to escape from those creatures, is..... Fight to death." Not a wild idea, but this is the reality.

Sean suddenly widened his eyes. Uh, he wants to complain about the taste. Why is it like this to face the creepy. "Is there no other way to escape their attack?"

"You have a strong aura. Obviously, you won't be able to avoid the menace of those manun tribe creatures."

"You can't scare Sean with your silly story," Jessica interjected. "I know you must be lying."

"Amuria is right" Driyad said. "The manun tribe under the mountain boy would not let Sean go if he saw him. Sean's aura was too strong. They hate people who have good looking faces. They're thousands, it's not easy to beat them."

Sean was getting curious, honestly he wanted to know what the creature was like. "How can we go to the city of Saranjana, if it is the only forest that penetrates into the endless desert."

Sean wasn't complaining, just dead-end ideas. There was nothing to think about it, unless he was already sweating coldly. Why should he be the prey just because he has a strong aura. The more Sean thought about the strange aura those people were talking about. Sean felt increasingly upset. His brain had to work full, it was always thought out by those words.

"Do you want to go to that endless desert?" ask Amuria.

Jessica nodded, she responded. "We want to go to the village of Mouli, then to the city of Saranjana. Find Eed, and..... Well, you see. We are human children, of course we will return to where we came from after finding our friend, Eed," explained Jessica.

"I can lead you out of the dark forest to the desert" Amuria offered.

"You sure?" Hearing this offer, Sean was excited. At least he has a friend he can count on. "Are you not joking, right?"

"Because you helped me free from poison, then I will help you as a reciprocal" Amuria replied. "Well, I'm being kind tonight."

"Yeah," Jessica raised a triumphant hand. "At least we have someone useful right now."

Driyad knows, kids expect this. He doesn't suck, just lazy in everything. Except for Herren, only he could make her powerless to work. The rest, no matter the threat. Driyad prefers to avoid.

"Why should it be now? Is there not tomorrow?" jessica Sahut.

"I'll explain later!" amuria. In Sean's eyes, the boy was far-sighted. He knows what to do and what not to do.

Sean understands. "I agree, we'd better get going now!"

"There's no other choice. Amuria knows best" said Driyad. Jessica, she's going with the flow. She doesn't know anything? All he knows is, Sean didn't leave himself alone.

They reached an agreement. Amuria's advice was much better then. Sean might have taken the right step. He voiced his idea, following the creature's footsteps. Passing through the hill where she and Jessica had previously been rolling around.

Passing the steep road, there is a road on the side of the cliff, walk the bridge seutas but obsolete. The bridge was almost weathered, but they were careful in stepping. There were some beautiful plants that shone as they passed by. Then there's.... Night hummingbirds bathed in golden light. They are the guide of their dark path.

Sean asked, how could the creature be the light of their path. And so simple was Amuria's answer. "He's my creature. He's going where his master's going." Pretty philosophical those words.

The road to the dark forest, there may be a secret behind it. Wouldn't the daylight the darkness at least be reduced. Why do we have to walk at night? Sean wanted to ask, but.... He hesitated to say it.

"It was a dark forest," on a fairly high hill, Amuria said.

They stood on the edge of the deep lip of the abyss. The forest was bordered by the Amurian meadows.

The creature was full of mystery, he said as if there was horror behind his speech.

"Before dawn comes, we have to get out of the dark forest" Amuria told her.

Sean took a few steps forward, standing next to Amuria. "There's a secret behind that forest. Why would a night like this go through?" Sean asked. Curiosity has enveloped him.

"If you walk through the forest at night. The aura within you will be slightly reduced. I'm not sure if your aura can diminish at night. To be sure, you can trick the dwarf creatures, except the sense of smell of the witch manun," explained Amuria. "He can sniff your existence."

"Manun witch?" Jessica says. "Isn't he in...... I mean, wasn't he in the cave before heading to the village of Manun?"

Amuria turned her head towards Jessica, the child actually still vividly remembered the residence of Muli. "HM... Actually, the witch of the manun is not just one. But many are still alive" Amuria explained. He looked at the forest in front of him, then continued his words. "That you met, one of the dozens of blind witches who survived. Although they are blind, but their magic is strong enough to lure the opposite sex. That's why I'm worried about the kid, he's doing nice things. Afraid to leave the next day, the aura was increasingly felt. Blind doesn't mean you can't smell."

Sean is confused, why should he be the target? He was just an ordinary child, there was no aura as the Amuria called it. "How can they be blind? Do you know the cause?" ask Sean. To be honest, listening to the stories of the past was the most interesting lesson for Sean.

"I only heard rumors, that their eyes were drying, caused by a misstudy of witchcraft. They were greedy, there was no need to doubt how thirsty they would be for the aura of a beautiful man." Amuria did not scare Sean, she said the facts.

"Then, -- that means - Sean is in danger at all times, is that what you mean?" Jessica tried to guess.

"Until the time comes, you'll know the truth."

"The truth?" Sean repeated.

"We'd better continue this journey, before sunrise. It's dangerous if the blind witch knows where Sean is," Driyad takes over the words. He knew, Amuria was guessing. He's a bitch, sometimes his mouth doesn't match his ferocious behavior. He's a know-how animal.

Gort has two versions. First the buffalo version, second the wolf version. Looks like demons, but they are one type even though they are different forms. They have light green blood when injured. The blood is shaped like steam. It will disappear if carried by the wind. The Gortites were notorious for brutality, brutality and brutality.
