The Land of the Four Suns
Ch. 5 - Black Shade
"So I'm a god? What god? I will believe that you can show your true identity as fairies" said Arsa.
He laughed out loud, laughing at his own stupidity. He felt his current level of sanity was at its lowest. Or maybe a minus? I don't know, obviously he's been crazy because of all the events he's been through today.
No! With a flick of a finger, the seven beautiful women changed. Silver-colored glittering powder, encircling their bodies. A pair of wings on the back and tapered tips of the ears.
Arsa was agape at all the changes. The words he was about to utter were again sinking.
"So you're not lying?" arsa said in a very low voice.
"Where might we lie to the gods. We can be sentenced to death," they said compactly.
"But the fairies I know are just no bigger than my fingers" Arsa said, recalling a cartoon she had seen.
No! Again, with just one flick of a finger, they changed. Now the fairies are more like butterflies that have various colors.
Shuuu .... There was the sound of wind gusts creeping in between the crystal windows. For a moment, the place was very quiet. Arsa was digesting what had happened to her.
"My lord, this is a serious matter. Does my master really not remember anything?" ask Berry.
Arsa lifted her head, watching the mythological creature that had now changed into a human-like form again.
"Berry."
"Yes, my Lord?"
"What time is it now?" ask Arsa. He had not answered the blue fairy's question.
"Hit?" Berry frowned, until both eyebrows were linked to each other.
"Yes. I mean, what time is it? Is it morning, afternoon or evening?" Arsa explained the question.
The man could not guess the time, because there were four suns up there. Everything looks the same, like nothing has changed. "Is the planet not rotating?" That was Arsa's mind.
"I mean the God of time? We have not used such a system of day and night. I was shocked because God suddenly asked like that" Berry said.
"How do we determine the time? Don't you guys need to sleep?"
"Of course it is necessary, my lord," replied the fairies.
"Then regarding time, our earth rotated during the twenty-four years of the millennium. Because of one very long day, we finally decided to look at the movement of the stars as a reference time" explains Lily.
"One day twenty-four years? Not twenty-four hours? Is this the earth or not, anyway?" peekik Arsa's.
"You're getting weird, God," said Peach.
Arsa took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly. "Actually I'm the weird one, or you guys, anyway?" abugn. The fairies shook their heads in ignorance.
"I'll just be honest with you. Please don't tell the Queen." Arsa looked at the female face before him seriously.
"It can be, but it can't be" Arsa said.
"So, what's the matter, God?" ask Olive anyway.
"I forgot a few things about this world. How is the time system here, my work, my relationship with the Queen." Arsa revealed a wedge in her heart.
There is no point in pretending anymore. If he continues to hold it himself, it will get worse.
"From now on, I'm going to need your help all the time" Arsa said.

"Why did Ezekiel wake up in the Rupelium Forest?" Queen Azura paced back and forth in her spacious room. Her favorite plum fruit, completely untouched since.
"Rania, did you see anything strange or dangerous?" ask the Queen on the main lady.
"Nothing, Her Majesty the Queen. I only see the Gods like a confused person" replied Rania Wichery.
"Then, what was the cause of it being there? His present attitude could also harm our kingdom, if the other party knew," the Queen murmured anxiously.
"This is beyond our expectations. But the Queen need not worry excessively. Doesn't that mean it's good, if Ezekiel's already here?" said a man in a suit of armor who had been silent earlier.
"Yes, you're right Black. But my heart is still not calm."
"Please ask permission, Her Majesty the Queen. I will meet the God personally, to investigate further, as well as provide an antidote to his seemingly chaotic memories," Rania said.
"Hmmm ... That sounds good. I feel a little relieved." Queen Azura started to smile.
Rania Wichery is not just a lady. She was a highly educated woman in the Kingdom of Viersonne. He also mastered various fields of science and language. Even the woman was often the Queen's personal doctor.
"Black Shade, your job is done. You don't have to pretend anymore" said Queen Azura.
"Sincerely, Your Majesty the Queen. May Your Majesty not be disappointed with the results of my work so far," said Black Shade, one of Queen Azura Auristella's confidants.
"Of course not, Black. From now on, I'll give you a new assignment" the Queen whispered, so that only Rania and Black Shade can hear it.

"Rudolf, there's a need for what you came here for. I wouldn't listen if it was just a little news about the Verenian Pallace again" said a creature sitting on a crocodile skull-shaped throne.
"This is important news, Your Honor. He has risen," answered a small snake which then turned into a handsome young man.
"Him? You mean who?"
"Ezekiel, God of Intelligence" said Rudolf."
