The Last Knight: New Generation (Vol 1)
Chapter 5: In Danger Part 1
It's been a month since I became a Knight. Various kinds of experiences I get, ranging from dexterity, alertness, angle view, stamina, skill, and others.
I ran several Quests during this 1 Month with my party, which contained Kahfi, Angga, Rian, Shiva, and Adit. Various kinds of light quests we run, ranging from farming, looking for a lost cat, saving grandmother who tried to commit suicide, catch fish, and participate in a race race run.
Although this Quest felt so light, but we enjoyed it together. Laughter we always present in running the Quest. We rarely fight, and I never even use my red-gloved Katana, which Akagami gave me.
In the end, we took a Quest wrong.
Right now we are all heavily injured, and lying on the ground. We were all trapped inside Desu Cave, along with a 6-year-old little girl.
We were surrounded by a monster called the Minotaur.
I was sprawled on the ground, my body unable to move in the slightest, due to the wound the Minotaur gave me.
"No... Don't you do that !!!"
I shouted as loud as possible to the Minotaur who was approaching Kahfi.
"If you want to kill, just kill me !!!"
The minotaur was getting closer to Kahfi who was slumped on the ground.
"Simmon... !!!! Don't kill him !!!"
The minotaur was already in front of Kahfi, and was ready to attack him.
"No, Don't !!! Kahfi !!!"
Kahfi looked at me with her smile.
"Finally you called my name right, Bagas"
The last word Kahfi said was like that, he smiled at me.
"No !!!"
...**********...
4 Days ago.
Friday, August 14th
At 10:00
Guild Association.
"Today we'll take what Quest ?"
I asked the five of them.
They were confused to decide, so I immediately took a Quest.
"What about this ?"
I showed them.
Shiva read the Quest I gave him.
"Bears are looking for a fighter. Face the bear in a 1 vs 1 duel. 10 Gold prize, nothing special."
Kahfi immediately took the Quest that was in Shiva's hands
"What is this Quest."
Kahfi threw the Quest to the ground.
"Hey, why did you drop the bear."
"It's paper, Bagas. Not a bear."
"But in the paper it says bear."
"Yes too."
Shiva just nodded.
We were confused to take out a Quest, as some Quests listed Special Knight class I-III only. We are only V-class Knights.
Suddenly a middle-aged man came to the Guild Association with a face of panic and exhaustion.
We saw the middle-aged man, who was approaching the receptionist in a hurry.
"Please... Please my son."
One of the receptionists responded to the middle-aged man.
"Yes, what's wrong, sir ?"
"Help my son in the Monster."
The receptionist handed a paper to the middle-aged man.
"Please fill out this Quest form, and explain what happened."
The middle-aged man immediately wrote her in a hurry, whereas we could only see her.
The middle-aged man gave the form paper to the receptionist.
"Please... Congratulations to my son !!!"
"Please wait, sir."
The receptionist began reading the form.
Instantly the receptionist was shocked, looking at the form paper.
"Ano... This village is if not mistakenly close to the Southern City right ?"
"Yes, I live there."
"Why didn't you ask the Guild for help in the Southern City ?"
"I've asked for her... But... They're... Refused him... With the... Reason.... That the Knight party over there is all busy, so they can't help me."
The middle-aged man spoke twisted.
The receptionist was suspicious. The receptionist looked at his paper back and thought of something.
"(It should be the size of this Monster, the party there will be able to support it. Then try asking again)"
The receptionist looked at the parched face of the middle-aged man, and spoke to him.
"Is it true, the father's son was kidnapped by a horde of Slime Monsters ?"
"Yeah right, at that time my son was playing, but suddenly a bunch of Monsters came to approach him. My son was kidnapped by the monster."
"What kind of monster does he form, sir ?"
The middle-aged man thought for a moment.
"Shape the monster, like a bant... Like jelly, small and slimy in blue."
The receptionist was getting suspicious.
But I was with her pede approaching them.
I was indeed the middle-aged man's shoulder, while showing my thumb.
"Just calm down, I'll save your son."
Ah, this middle-aged man seemed to have gotten a wish when I said so.
"really ?"
"really."
The receptionist started talking to me.
"Wait a minute, this quest isn't official yet, so you can't take it."
I answered him so calmly.
"There's no official word, to help someone."
I smell the unpleasant scent of this middle-aged man.
"Have you not taken a shower ?"
"Ah, sorry... I didn't have time to take a bath, as I rode a horse from my village to get here."
"Then you take a shower first."
"But..."
I tried to convince her.
"Just calm down, I'll save her."
I smiled at the middle-aged man.
"Thank you. You're a good boy, and your parents are proud to have a son like you."
"Ah... They must be proud."
I answered him in a slow tone.
The middle-aged man left.
Jessica approached the receptionist who was confused because of the middle-aged man.
"You have given them only. Take it easy they're strong people."
"But..."
Jessica tried to convince her friend.
"Where do you love the officer, to inaugurate the Quest. I'll be in charge."
I went back to where my friend was.
"Hey, why did you decide unilaterally ? Without telling us."
"Ah... I saw the father was so sad, so I tried to help him. Don't you guys want to help her ?"
"We want to sii too."
"Good then."
15 Minutes later.
The receptionist returned with a Quest paper.
Adit took it, and filled out the form of the members who participated in this Quest.
"This is the form."
"So you have 6 members."
"Yeah." Yeah."
"All your equipment we've put on the horse-drawn carriage that's ahead of you."
"All right."
"Jessica's waiting for you in front."
"Thank you, then"
Adit rushed away, but his footsteps stopped the receptionist.
"Wait !!!"
Adit looked back.
"What's up ?"
The receptionist said something with an anxious face.
"Observe the heart."
We also rushed forward.
We saw Jessica and a few Guild members carrying an item, and putting it in a horse carriage.
Jessica, who was aware of our presence, spoke up.
"You'll use this car, without a driver."
"So you mean, we're gonna drive her there ?"
"That's fine. It's the map."
Jessica gave a rolled up paper to Angga.
Angga opened it, and instantly panicked.
"Ehhhh, that's right ! It's so far away."
We saw the map.
Jessica tried to convince us.
"Just calm down, if you follow the path correctly, it will get to its place."
This Quest first time traveled very far.
Kahfi tried asking Jessica something.
"Nee... How long are we gonna get there ?"
"If you walk correctly, at the latest it's 3 days 2 nights, and at the earliest 1 day 1 night.
Kahfi swallowed his own saliva.
"Let's just relax, we've put your supplies on that train, all you need is food. Save it."
Shiva asked Jessica something.
"What about that father ?"
"The father has gone first, after having taken a bath."
I saw Rian walking.
"Hey Rian, where are you going ?"
"I want to pee, before we leave."
"I'll come along then."
The two of us re-entered the Guild Association to urinate.
On the way to the toilet, we stopped in front of a room.
"I can't !!! Why did you decide to make them fight in groups. It's been a long time since we made a 1 vs 1 fight, but why have you come up with new rules !!!"
"Hey, calm down Deva. I've decided because of the number of students this year so many, plus the 11th and 12th grades who want to participate."
We both eavesdropped on that conversation.
Suddenly a Guild member appeared.
"Hey what are you guys doing ?"
I held onto Rian's hand, and rushed off.
Arriving in the toilet.
"Ah, uh... Just not to be found out."
"Why are we running ?"
"I don't know why we ran away either."
We both urinated.
"Ah... Relieved for it."
Suddenly a man came into the toilet.
The person's body is so full, the person is very tall about 190 cm. Her hair was black shiny combed backwards. Her clothes were so polite, on the chest of her clothes was written 'Chairman'
Rian and I just passed it.
But suddenly he stopped my footsteps.
"Hey wait !"
His voice was similar, just like the one we spoke when we eavesdropped.
I looked back.
"What's up ?"
The man looked at my face, and thought something.
"Be careful when you're on duty."
"Ohh, okay."
Rian and I left her.
I saw Rian's face so pale. There was so much sweat on his face.
"Hey Rian, are you okay ?"
Rian ignored me.
"Wooy !!!"
Instantly I surprised her.
"Ahh, sorry."
"Are you okay ?"
"Yes, I'm fine."
Actually Rian was quite shocked when he sensed the aura from that person.
"Let's go back."
"Come on."
Once there, they were already in the horse carriage.
Rian and I went inside.
We all sat quietly, and stayed in the carriage.
I asked them.
"By the way, who's gonna drive it ?"
"....."
"....."
"....."
"....."
