The Black Ice Dragon Legend

season 5: search for the general

The next day, Naria, Delisa, Rina and Simo finally set off towards the east. Their only goal was to find a general who was ordered to be in the hill empire, which was the first country to get an attack by the giants. Despite the general's low chances of survival, Dira ordered it anyway. He was sure that the man was still alive.

Dira says she is a beautiful little girl. But actually, he was a sixty-year-old. In addition, when he was around them, there would be a very fragrant smell, the fragrance of which he said he was, more fragrant than any perfume in the world, he said, and her beauty is unequaled among the girls.

Of course they did not believe in it, but they explained that the girl was a different existence; other than the others. He was born from a strange dwarf and had a bad appearance.

It was because of this difference that they grew curious and felt strange. Dira explained again, that, he did not have clearer information to say it because of the difficulty of information about the girl again. In addition, he also did not know the situation of the war that occurred. But, he was sure, the hill empire had already been conquered by the giants.

If possible, he ordered the rescue of the surviving inhabitants from there.

The reason he was so confident that the country was already destroyed, was none other than that he heard that the countries that were there were on average weak in the military.

In addition, he also explained to be careful in crossing the central desert area which is always inhabited by giants. Dira suggested crossing it quickly as it would be very dangerous to be in there for a long time.

Dira also asks Naria, Rina and Delisa for their Preparation for this adventure. Rina answered very well prepared for this adventure, while Delisa and Naria also made preparations, but they did some things for their families.

Delisa sent a letter to her mother, and so did Naria.

Although Delisa did not care much about her mother, however she was her child, who had to do that for her mother.

They left early in the morning to avoid Safia who was crying because her father had left her. Whether or not he would cry, the three of them were just in case.

They chose to eat on the side of the road this morning. Other than the three of them, there was an old man running a horse carriage. He would escort them until they arrived in the central area. His name is Chan.

“Simo, do you want my food? I'm not used to this food.” Said Rina while extending her food. The food looks so good and delicious. Besides, it's a fancy meal.

Everyone looked at him in wonder. But it's different with Simo. She finds out that Rina was a fairy before, although she doesn't know why rina could become like this, she finds out, rina hasn't gotten used to eating food like this. He had also observed how Rina ate in the palace. So, only fruits that he could eat.

“well. Do you want fruit?” simo took it, then put it next to him.

“iya. I used to eat fruit like that. Are there fruits around? Anyone know?” rina looked at everyone.

Chan who was not far away replied, “There is. Does miss want it so much?”

Rina nodded. “I need her the most right now. I haven't eaten... Is it too far to get it?”

“No miss, just a few minutes to reach him. But, I do not know for sure whether the fruits are ripe or not.”

“What fruit did Mr Chan say?”

“apples. Around here are some apple trees that are already fruitful. I saw him a few days ago with my granddaughter. Back then, the fruit wasn't ripe, but now I don't know. There may be some new ones ripe for the lady. But, why does the lady want it so much? The food prepared by the palace is better than the fruits.”

“I'm not used to it. All right, No problem, I'll go to look for him.”

He then walked away. He walked slowly, hoping simo would help him, but simo did not help him, and simply replied, “I will wait for you.”

With a feeling of disappointment, Rina went away. Simo just looked at him. She actually wanted to help Rina, but her stomach felt very hungry for the moment, it was not good to hold on to hunger for the sake of others, and after all, the place Chan said it was not far away, make him relieved.

Simo took his food. When she was about to eat it, Naria approached her. “Can I bribe you?” both of Naria's cheeks flushed red when she said that.

Delisa and Chan were around looking the other way, and it was as if they thought it was not happening at all. They were busy enjoying their own food.

Simo was surprised to hear that. This was the first time Naria had offered it. She looks so pretty with such flushed cheeks!

“This is not as usual.”

Naria became pouting. “What if I'm different today? I am your girlfriend, and this is an expression of my guilt for having left you these few months, so, you mustn't turn it down.”

“Since when are we dating?” simo wants to tease Naria.

“well, fine. If you don't want to, I'll go.” Naria left, but Simo held her hand.

“Good. I accepted. Again, Pula, this is the first time you've done it, I won't miss this opportunity. Also, rarely do you behave as gently as this.”

“wasn't I as gentle as this in the previous days?” Naria sat down next to Simo. Then he took his food.

“Of course. You were so cold when I met you the first time. You're also funny and grumpy. I never thought, you could be this gentle now, it feels like you're becoming a different person.”

“which attitude do you like? Am I the old one or the present one?”

“i like everything. But, what I like most, when you can be gentle like this. You look prettier than ever.”

“You... don't praise me like this.” Naria's face turned red and lowered.

“Alright, if you don't want to bribe me today, I'll eat myself.”

“No! Let me just!” Naria took the food box from simo's hand. “if I had said it, I would have done it. Open your mouth.”

Simo began to open his mouth. They look very happy in a time like this. Delisa and Chan who were not far away did not see them, but, of course, they were envious of the behavior of the lovers.

Delisa wants to quickly have it and wants to feel how to have a lover, while Chan imagines how his youth has never forgotten.

But.... Only one person who suffered saw it. She was none other than Rina. He's hiding behind a tree. Hoping to wait for simo will catch up with him, but it is not. Her tears flowed looking at that.
