The Hidden Existence

Looking for an Innkeeper

"What's the kid? Are you scared?" Ask the man with the mustache

"Fear? Me? Your magic will not be able to hurt me and my friends" replied Aris

"It's so arrogant of you! Everyone, finish them off" said the mustache man

All the witches had cast a magic spell and were preparing to attack Aris as well as Nia.

"Aris, what should we do?" Ask the frightened Nia

"Just calm. You can take cover behind me" replied Aris calmly

"Do you think you can avoid all of his attacks?" Ask the mustache man, yell

"Not just dodging. But, I will face it" replied Aris

"Are you sure? Their magic was all at the SSS level. How can you possibly win if you face it?" Ask the man with the mustache

"It seems you underestimated me too much" replied Aris

"Everyone attacked them" said the man with the mustache, shouting

"Aris!!!" Said Nia who was starting to get scared and could only be silent behind Aris's clothes

"Fire Elements - Fireballs" The witches' call

A shield that resisted all magic attacks. Everyone was silent for a moment, looking at what had happened.

"W-What's going on?" Ask the man in the mustache to panic

"I told you, right. You underestimated me too much. Let me tell you, underestimating your opponent is no good, lo. And it could be, your opponent is too strong to fight you" said Aris

"W-What happened?" Nia asked as she opened her eyes slowly

"Just calm. While you're there, you'll be fine" replied Aris

"Everyone back to attack them!!" Said the mustache

"Well. Fire Elements - Fireballs" The witches' ploy

"That's it. I got tired of all this too soon" said Aris while taking out the shield

"Why? Why isn't anyone about them? Ask the man with the mustache

"Only one answer. Never underestimate your opponent" replied Aris

"Who are you really?" Ask the man in the mustache again

"Me?" Asked Aris while walking towards him

"You!! You are my previous slave buyer" replied the mustachioed man in fear

"What's wrong? Why are you so scared?" Ask Aris who can only smile

"Why are you doing this?" Ask the man in the mustache again

"My relationship with you doesn't exist. All I have is my business with you, your leader. All I want is her whereabouts" replied Aris

"I-I don't know where he is. I was just told to sell his slave. Really, nothing more" said the mustachioed man terrified

"You know, I would rather torture someone who dared to lie to me than those who spoke honestly to me" Aris said

"Please, I really don't know where he is. I mean it" said the man with the mustache

"What should we do, Aris?" Ask Nia

"I don't know either" replied Aris

"All right, then I'll go. But remember, I always keep my words if you get caught lying to me" said Aris

"All right!!" Said the moustached person trembling

"And for you SSS-level magicians who have served the kingdom. Are you shameless that your abilities are used for that which is not protecting the kingdom. But it is used for evil purposes. If you need money, go to the dungeon or mine to get the items needed by the guild and the community. And if it's said it's not enough. You can sell it to the magic association office. Because the magic association office also requires materials to make weapons and drugs that are good for you and other adventurers. It seems that's all I can say. I'll go" said Aris

The witches and the mustachioed were silent and some were crying. Aris and Nia who saw him could only smile.

"Let's go home, Nia" said Aris

"Good" said Nia

When I got out of the cake shop. Tahlia and Nia were surprised because Tahlia when she came home with Aris and Nia who had come out of the store saw Aris together with Tahlia. The two are confused as to who and which is the real Aris.

"Oh, I forgot. My father" said Aris in his heart

"Wait, which one is the real Aris?" Ask Tahlia

"You two. Sorry" said Aris while hitting the back of Nia's head as well as Tahlia's

They both fainted. By the time she woke up, Tahlia was already on the sofa in her shop and Nia was already in her room.

"W-What happened?" Ask the confused Tahlia

"Where am I?" Asked Nia who was feeling a little dizzy

"Sir, they both know your shadow magic. What do we do now?" Ask Quester

"Just calm. I had erased their memories by the time they fainted" Aris replied

"Oh, yeah. Then we can calm down, right?" Quester

"Fast or slow. They will know who I really am" Aris said

"So, sir will reveal his identity? And also, master won't erase their memories?" Ask Quester

"Yes, but now is not the right time" replied Aris

"Whatever you say and you do, I will follow you at all times" said Quester

"Thank you. But, it seems like I'm tired. I need a break" said Aris

"Sleep sir, let me take care of you" said Quester

"Oh, yes. I've never seen you sleep. When did you fall asleep?" Ask Aris

"We dragon race always sleeps once every 500 years and also wake up 500 years as well. Now because I've been with you for 5 years. So, I still have time left to stay awake is 495 years away" Quester replied

"You're so strong, yeah. Alright, then I will rest and after this we will return to the kingdom of Ayus" said Aris

"But, what about the leader who made Bela fret?" Ask Quester

"For that we leave it to the security forces of the kingdom of Ketral" replied Aris

"Wasn't it the moment we exchanged the slave cards to meet their leader?" Ask Quester

"Indeed right. But their leaders like to move. It could be said that he was in one place for only a few minutes" replied Aris

"Did you believe what his assistant said?" Ask again Quester

"I know he's lying. But, it is free to force it" replied Aris

"Keep what should we do?" Ask Quester

"We need to meet with someone from the royal forces to address this issue" Aris replied

"But, who?" Ask Quester

"We need to need people who can be trusted" replied Aris

"Credible? We don't even know who it is" Quester said

"There certainly is" said Aris

After that they both returned to the inn. While at the inn he had been waiting by Nia who was at the door of the inn.

"What's wrong?" Ask the confused Aris

"You need to explain it to me" answered Nia

After that they went in and sat down at the table together with Tahlia.

"So where have you been all this time?" Nia asked with an angry face

"I'm only going out for a moment" replied Aris

"Eh, really? Don't you want to meet the owner of the cake shop?" Nia asked, getting angry

"Of course, No. I was just looking for the leader of yesterday's auction. That's it" replied Aris

"really? If you're looking for a woman other than me. I will definitely make you regret it" Nia said

"Good" said Aris lowered his head

"Sir, you're helpless in front of Nia" Quester said with a laugh

"You are" said Aris softly
