THE BATTLE ZERO WORLD

What is the Reason I'm Looking for the Old Kingdom ?

As the day grew darker, stars began to scatter in the dark sky. The stars that decorate the sky are like black paper filled with sparkling colors. Kaito sat down in front of Salamah's grandmother's house and stared at the beauty of the night. Kaito's mind was jumbled to hear all the stories from Salamah's grandmother and Rashid's grandfather. Kaito just stared at the sky that had been blackened and illuminated by the beautiful lights. The atmosphere of the village was increasingly quiet in the accompaniment with the breeze blowing.

"Old Kingdom, is it true ?"

Kaito held her necklace and clearly saw the Millennium Item necklace she was wearing. Kaito continued to stare at the necklace for hours in front of the house.

"Is there any way to find the Old Kingdom with this necklace ?"

Kaito muttered and looked at the parts of the necklace he was wearing.

"When there's a clue, I can definitely find the Old Kingdom"

Kaito fell asleep at the door and looked up at the sky. Suddenly from behind came Rashid's grandfather approaching Kaito with a box.

"What are you thinking Mr Kaito ?"

Rashid's grandfather sat beside Kaito.

"No, I was just thinking about what you said about the Old Kingdom"

Rashid's grandfather opened the box and took out a piece of tobacco and paper, then he rolled it up like a cigarette and lit it. Kaito who saw it made him remember the habits of his late grandfather who always made his own cigarettes and enjoyed it.

"Why Mr Kaito ? Would you like to try this cigarette ?"

Kaito just fell silent and looked at Rashid's grandfather who placed his box in their middle.

"May I try that cigarette ?"

Grandpa Rashid just smiled while smoking his cigarette. Kaito takes tobacco and paper to make his cigarettes.

"If you make it, my advice is to use double paper so that it can be evenly distributed"

Kaito did as Rashid's grandfather said. Cigarettes so, Kaito starts lighting his cigarette and sucking it.

"Tonight the stars are so beautiful, Mr Kaito ?"

Kaito just nodded in response to Rashid's grandfather's words. Rashid's grandfather looked up at the sky and cried together beautifully that night.

"Why are you crying ?"

Kaito was astonished to see Rashid's grandfather crying.

"No, I'm just reminiscing about my happy days, sir, don't you feel like you're craving something beautiful when you see something beautiful ?"

Kaito just kept quiet and smoked his cigarette then looked up at the sky. Grandpa Rashid just stared at Kaito.

"I have no good memories, all like just dreams, happy memories, happy, sad, disappointed all like dreams to me"

Kaito looked down and smoked his cigarette. Grandfather Rashid stood up and walked towards the door to enter the house.

"If you feel like you're all just a dream, you better enjoy that dream as long as you're comfortable"

Rashid's grandfather enters the house and leaves Kaito alone in front of the house.

"Surely that's what I'll always do"

Kaito muttered in response to Rashid's grandfather's words while smoking his cigarette.

The night was getting late the wind began to blow loudly along with the increasingly quiet atmosphere. The village that during the morning and afternoon crowded scattered the people turned like a deserted dead city without a sound. Kaito looked around and turned off his cigarette. Unbeknownst to Kaito, next to the box where Rasyid's grandfather lived there was a tea that was still hot. Kaito looked back and saw Salamah's grandmother standing at the door, smoking a cigarette.

"When have you been there, Grandma Salamah ?"

Grandma Salamah just smiled and smoked her cigarette.

"Yes there's probably been 15 minutes I'm here, drink your tea sir"

Kaito took a glass of tea and drank it. Grandma Salamah looked at Kaito who was drinking her tea.

"Are you thinking about my story, Mr. Kaito ?"

Kaito stopped drinking and looked down at his cup of tea.

"Yes, but I still can't believe it"

"You don't have to think too much about it, the Old Kingdom is gone. And maybe if we find him, all that's left is the rubble of the building"

Kaito was silent at the words of Salamah's grandmother.

"For me the Old Kingdom is just a lost hometown. But even though it's gone, the village is always in my memory"

Kaito looked at Salamah's grandmother who looked sad considering her birthplace.

"Are you eager to see the Old Kingdom's grandmother Salamah ?"

Grandma Salamah just smiled and walked inside the house. The wind blew fiercely as the door closed. Kaito was silent in front of the house while holding his drinking cup.

"Your hometown ?"

at first glance Kaito remembers his childhood memories while with his grandparents in the village where he was born. Kaito picked up the tobacco and paper that was in the box and started making cigarettes for him to smoke.

"It may not be a problem to find the Old Work for Grandpa Rashid and Grandma Salamah"

Kaito smiled as he lit his cigarette. The wind grew stronger and Kaito enjoyed the atmosphere while smoking his cigarette.

In the morning, the sun was shining so warmly that it touched the body of Kaito who fell asleep in front of the house with a cloth blanket. Kaito opened his eyes and saw that Rashid's grandfather was already sitting sweetly while enjoying his cigarette.

"Have you woken up Mr Kaito ?"

Kaito stood up and walked over to Rashid's grandfather.

"Well, I didn't realize last night I was sleeping in front of the house"

Grandpa Rashid smiled and smoked his cigarette.

"Take the mangrove and paper to make your cigarette"

Kaito just kept silent and looked at the village that people started popping up.

"The village looks crowded"

Kaito muttered as he picked up the mangroves and paper and made a cigarette.

"Yes, sir, when the night is all but gone, and the next morning they all start to get out of the house to start their activities"

Kaito looked at Grandpa Rashid who looked calm answering his words.

"I've thought about it"

Kaito said as he lit his cigarette.

"Will grandfather and grandmother come with me in search of the Old Kingdom ?"

Salamah's grandmother came out of the house with tea and approached Kaito and Rashid's grandfather.

"Of course we'll come with you, Mr. Kaito"

Salamah's grandmother answered Kaito's question while putting 2 cups of tea for him and Rashid's grandfather. Grandfather Rashid smiled and stood up.

"We'll go wherever Mr. Kaito goes"

Kaito is shocked to hear Rashid's grandfather's words. Kaito smokes his cigarette and stares at Rashid's grandfather.

"I'm happy with both of you're making the decision"

Kaito was smiling and enjoying the morning. Then Salamah's grandmother took out a blank piece of paper from under her clothes.

"Mr Kaito, can you point the end of your necklace to this paper ?"

"Of course, what is this paper grandmother Salamah ?"

Kaito directed the end of his necklace to the paper that Salamah's grandmother had provided. Grandpa Rashid looked delighted and walked into the house.

"This paper will show the location of the Old Kingdom that we're looking for, Mr. Kaito"

Kaito was astonished and stared at the blank paper. Suddenly from the end of the Millennium the Atem emitted light and blank paper showed a map.
