The Adventures of Neu Pen'du

The Adventures of Neu Pen'du
6. Nevt Pen 'du



Every night and the empty hours Mr. Pendu and the couple chatted, Mr. Pendu told many stories that opened the eyes of the couple.


The last day of the naming ritual took place, the baby is currently undergoing a ritual in front of the circle symbol.


Namo and Nonai looked at their son who was currently performing the final ritual process.


Their current feelings were mixed, between happy, sad, worried.


Namo is worried, because if his son fails to perform the ritual process and becomes a child who fails in society.


But Nonai smiled happily seeing their current son perform his final ritual process.


A few days ago Namo asked his wife why you were not worried but a happy smile was the answer.


Obviously Namo really understands his wife's true nature, she is a very careful person. But this is his son's last rite but Nonai remains calm.


The path of the ritual process lasted longer than the previous day, the rays from their son's body getting brighter and brighter like sunlight.


The beam suddenly disappeared from the baby's body and the ancient voice of Master Pendu echoed within the cave.


"Nevt Pen'du"


Nonai upon hearing the ancient voice instantly smiled and happy springs drenched his cheeks.


"Mr Pendu thank you for the naming ritual for my son"


Now that Namo was prostrating towards Lord Pendu, he was very happy to see that their son had the name of a great figure like Lord Pendu.


"You've been giving me my favorite food for 4 days and without asking why. I'm really happy to see your hard work these few days. That's why I gave your son's last name with mine"


The couple was surprised, they also never heard of the naming ritual giving 2 nouns.


Basically all names in their village have 1 word name.


"When you harvested the silver seaweed for the first time, I explained what blessings Nevt Pen'du would get, to your wife"


"But that is just a common naming blessing that I often do. Usually if I name a human child I never give my name to them"


"But this incident is a little special, first I owe it to your ancestor Nebo and secondly you are a good person. Fighting for the best for your child gets me excited"


"Even if half my strength is on Nevt Pen'du. But his future depends on it"


"I'm going to go through my long sleep right now. I'm really happy to know you two these past few days. Accept this and give it to Nevt Pen'du when he's 13"


"Haha. What an interesting human being"


Laughter from Mr. Pendu echoed until it made the cave vibrate violently, after the laughter lost the symbol on the cave wall was lost and the vibration stopped.


Half an hour later, their feelings began to normalize.


"Don't you know what half of Lord Pendu's power means to our son?"


"I don't understand that either. But I strongly believe that our son will be a great figure in the future"


Nonai stroked the head of his son who was currently asleep, Namo also looked at his son with a happy smile.


4 Weeks passed, but there was no sign of Mr. Pendu waking up from his sleep. The flood in their village was completed a few days ago.


But they refused to leave the cave, because they had many questions for Mr. Pendu.


A month passed from the day Mr. Pendu began to sleep long. Namo and Nonai leave the cave and prepare to walk towards their village.


Namo was sad and came back to the cave and wanted to say thank you.


But when he saw the high cliff he fell silent.


The mysterious cave where Lord Pendu lived vanished. As if there had never been a cave inside the cliff.


Namo ran again towards his wife who was currently sitting and stroking the green hair of their son Nevt Pen'du.


Seeing his son still have green hair, Namo breathed a sigh of relief because everything he went through was not a dream.


"What's wrong?"


Nonai asked as she looked at her husband's confused expression.


"Gu. Cave Lord Pendu Lost"


Hearing Namo's stammering speech, making Nonai surprised as well, he stood up and walked towards the cave of Lord Pendu.


Sure enough, there is no cave at all on the cliff wall.


With thoughts drifting everywhere the two couples together entered their village area.


"That's Namo and Nonai with their children"


"Huh? Where?, I guess they've left our village and sailed out to sea to explore"


The villagers were shocked to see Namo and Nonai, the news of the disappearance had already spread throughout the village.
