THE ETERNAL DRAGON

CHAPTER 39 | I will fight beside you Mr. Araga

As John closed his eyes, his phone rang again. This time it's Violet's phone.

“Halo mister Araga” Violet said from across the phone

“What's the matter Miss Violet” says John

“Master, our work in Russia is over, it is likely that next week we will already proceed to Latin America. If the master pleases, we wait for the master there. Please bring back the gem I had lent you” said Violet.

“Alright, after in Latin America, contact where I will send it” said John.

“Ok. See you there mr” said Violet as she hung up

John, who already knew how the character of the gem was looking for, no longer needed the blue jewel of Violet. Hopefully Sara can hide well her jewels from the people of Violet, John murmured.

For a week, John continued his training in Russia accompanied by Sasha, while training the group of people Sasha had recruited.

Then John bids farewell with Sasha to continue to leave for England to visit the English royal banquet invited by Amelia.

“Master, when can sasha meet again” asked Sasha.

“You must strengthen yourself and your group Sasha. Fighting may be inevitable in the future. At that time your group must be ready to face it” said John.

“Good tuan” said Sasha saddened by John's departure.

John then set off on a plane bound for England that could only be seen with Sasha's sad gaze until the plane flew through the clouds.

“I will fight beside you lord Araga” muttered Sasha

John arrived in England and headed straight for his place to stay, a hotel not far from the Amelia family mansion in Nottingham.

In the afternoon the banquet began, John had hitched a ride to the royal family mansion. Arriving at the very tight gate of the mansion, John passed through several checkpoints.

It seems that the royal family includes wealthy families from Great Britain, even from some acquaintances from other European kingdoms who were present at the royal banquet. Only John was not from the royal family, and became the center of attention surrounding him with John's usual modest appearance.

John was able to pass through the checkpoint with disbelieving eyes from the guards who checked it with detail many times to make sure that John Araga's name was indeed on the invitation list.

In front of the strange gazes of the invited guests, John saw Amelia who was waving at him.

“Finally you came also John” said Amelia with a smile

“Who is this Amelia” asked Amelia's relatives to approach them

“Include this John Araga, our friend an archaeologist and gemologist” sahut Amelia introduced John to his relatives and friends.

“Archologist? The jeweler? Lest a braggart who just wants to get close to you Lady” said a friend of Amelia underestimated John.

Amelia's face flushed at her friend's innuendo, then turned to look at John who didn't care much about the words. Her goal came to this banquet just to honor Amelia's invitation and see her royal jewel collection. Another thing he doesn't care about.

“John, forgive my friends” said Amelia while looking down at John

“No problem Lady” smile John

Amelia's family then welcomed all the invitations and invited them to join the living room which was quite spacious and equipped with security.

Banquets like this are commonly held by world collectors in friendly royal collector associations to add insight and knowledge about the collection of gems owned by each and held in various collector's places respectively alternating. It is now his turn to be held in the British royal family.

At each banquet, each guest collector will display their own collection of precious, unique and rare gems. So it requires professional security to maintain the security of the event.

This time the United Kingdom displayed some very valuable collections, as did the kingdoms of France, Germany, Wales, Italy and others from all parts of the world who were members of the royal collector's association.

John saw the various collections displayed, but he was not too interested in the gems. He did not find the aura he was looking for from the various gems.

Amelia, who was beside John, explained various things about the jewels displayed to the guests.

“Is this all the gems you have?” john asked after all the gems were displayed by all the participants which made Amelia smile.

“I know what you think John, you must be looking for the real gem that we auction replicas in Russia right?” ask Amelia to him

“Let's follow me John. I'll show you” Amelia said as she pulled John's hand to follow her

They then arrived at a royal collection room in the mansion. There were many rare and artistic items collected by the Amelia family. Painting, Ceramics, Weapons, Armor, and so on.

Lali Amelia heads to a safe that holds their jewels and takes them out.

“You're not afraid I'll steal your stuff Amelia?” asked John curiously

“Kamu bisa mencobanya John, namun kamu tidak akan bisa keluar dari rumah kami” senyum Amelia yang membuat John menghela nafas

Then Amelia took out an ancient box containing some jewels inside. When Amelia opened the jewel box, she saw a faint light but it had exactly the same aura she was looking for.

Here comes one of those jewels, John said in his heart.

It was small, similar to Sara's gem, but it was deep red and had a red aura as well. John heaved a sigh of relief, he had already found three positions of gems out of the five he was looking for.

“Excellent jewels Amelia” said John with a smile.

“Can I hold it?” john asked that made Amelia narrow her eyes.

“Bby, but don't take it away ya” said Amelia with a smile.

John then took the red jewel he was looking for, which made Amelia's eyes twitch.

It turns out that you do know this jewel John, said Amelia in her heart which of course was heard by John.

“This is a very rare gem, of course it will never be sold by your family kan” said John later.

“True John, this is our family legacy. We made some replicas that are very similar to him because many are interested in having them” said Amelia.

John then smiled, “Alright, I hope your family can take good care of this thing Amelia” said John

Amelia's eyes twitched hearing John's words “Why John?”

“This gem besides having positive energy, also negative energy that can affect the family. Many people want to have that energy. So I said, please take care and hide well this gem” John's message

Amelia who did not know what John meant just smiled “Good John. We'll keep it”
