The Last Knight: New Generation (Vol 1)

Chapter 5: In Danger Part 4

Sunday, August 16th

At 13:30

My name is Andre Apollon. I am currently heading towards the Guild Association building due to a call by them.

"Sad... It's a hassle."

Amidst the scorching sun, I slowly walked the land regardless of a single person looking towards me.

I don't know why they called me there in a panic. Suddenly my father approached me who was reading a book. He said "Hey son, you're called to go there, this word is important. hurry up !" It's a hassle, just interrupting my time.

"Hahahaha, come after me if you can, Mother."

"Son !!!"

Duuk (Collision sound)

Ah, uh... My pants are wet because of this boy.

Her mother came straight to me.

"I apologize as big as you are."

They're both so annoying. I just ignore it and get the hell out of here, rather than serving them both.

"We apologize as much as you are."

...**********...

Guild Association.

I opened the entrance of the Guild Association building and instantly saw his party Tiara was looking at the quest board.

They saw me as I walked towards the receptionist.

One of them approached me.

"Anne..."

My footsteps were stopped by her.

"Thank you, you were helping us at the time."

He's bowing his body.

I better ignore it and rush towards the receptionist.

Arriving at the reception, I tried to ask him something.

"What's up ? Why are you calling me ?"

This receptionist daydreamed of seeing me.

"His handsome..."

"Sad..."

He kept daydreaming when he saw me.

"I'll just go."

I rushed off but one of the receptionists stopped me.

"Wait !!!"

I looked back and saw the receptionist who stopped me. She was like a beautiful-faced mature woman and had a nice body.

"Your name is Andre Apollon, right ?"

It seems he recognized me.

"Please wait here for a moment, as the current chairman of the Guild Association is heading this way."

"Yes." Yeah."

I rushed out of this building to a park near here.

This park is really cool in the middle of the hot sun, maybe because here it is in the contents of many trees so cool.

I sat on one of the benches in the park.

The little boy was running around here and there regardless of this world being in danger.

The wind blows all over my body.

I spread my hands and looked up at the sky.

"Now the 16th of August. Means it's Bagas' birthday, I better give something to him."

I remember Bagas' birthday yesterday, I gave Bagas a gift of a book. He threw the book out.

"This is a gift for you, Bagas. Happy birthday to you"

"Ohh. You remember my birthday, Andre. But by the way What is this ?"

"Just open it !"

Bagas opened the box I gave him.

Instantly she was shocked by the contents inside her.

"Jbiiii...."

"Where ?"

"Dispose of it."

Bagas threw her out the window. My heart ached as soon as he threw it.

Bagas looks upset and scolds me.

"I don't want this gift, I want his treasure from the flying dutchman."

"(That's impossible!!) Sorry I can only give you this. That's my favorite book."

I paused for a moment and laid myself on his bed.

"Thank you Andre. Actually I do not need anything, because at this time I am happy to continue living until now."

I was silent as Bagas said that.

Bagas saw me in a sitting position on his bed.

"Nee... What if I am in danger someday ? Do you think I can get past that danger ? Or maybe I'll be in trouble ?"

I thought for a moment.

"You can definitely get through it, because you're the Bagas I know."

"Xixixixixixi"

Bagas smiled at me.

I still remember Bagas' smile so sincere.

"I knew it was Bagas, and then you took the book back and started reading it. This guy is really weird."

The fact is he appreciates what I give him.

I saw the receptionist approaching me.

"Thank God you're here, I thought you were gone."

This receptionist was casually sitting next to me. This sucks so much. I better ignore it.

He began to speak while looking at the clear sky.

"Do you know ?"

I try not to answer. Because honestly I don't know.

"I met someone 1 month ago, he gave me hope in life. That person is like the light in my life. Talking to her felt so comfortable, as if I would forget what was going on. Even though his face is so innocent, hehehehe."

This receptionist smiled to himself while looking at the sky. I honestly don't know what he's talking about.

"With his innocent face, that person volunteered to protect me, hahahahaha. It's weird when we both just met, but he offered to protect me."

"That means that person believes in you."

I unconsciously said that word.

"Haaa... You're absolutely right, even though he's so innocent, he's capable of making someone comfortable around him. Oh, I haven't introduced myself."

This receptionist saw me.

"My name is Jessica. Greetings, Andre from the Apollon family."

The wind blows strong.

Jessica suddenly cried out her tears.

"When he believed in me, but I put him at risk. Right now he and his friend's friend are in danger because of my own fault."

Jessica cried sincerely from her heart.

I don't know who she's crying for.

"Nee... Sorry, because of me, one of your families is in danger."

I was shocked when I heard it.

"Hey, what do you mean ?"

"Sorry..."

Jessica could only cry.

Then Jessica's friend came and told her something.

"The chairman has come."

I, who was still curious about his words, tried to ask him again.

"What do you mean ?!!!"

Jessica rushed into the Guild Association building with her friends and invited me inside.

"You'll know inside."

Jessica wiped her tears with both of her hands.

I, who was still curious, came in with him.

When he arrived at the meeting room.

In this room were me, Tiara, Jessica, Dwi, Sri, Amelia, and the Guild's chairman and representative.

When I went inside with Jessica, the guild leader came over to Jessica.

Plaak (Voice slap)

I was shocked to see the guild master slapping Jessica so hard that he blushed his cheeks.

"Hahahahaha, it's appropriate for him to be slapped, if you can just kill him all."

I saw someone laughing, this person was the vice-chairman of the guild.

Tiara approached Jessica who was holding her cheek.

"Hey, what are you guys doing !!!"

Tiara tried to calm Jessica down.

To be honest, I was not very fond of their ways, especially on the words of the vice-chairman of the guild to Jessica.

Currently Jessica just lowered her head with a sad face, whereas Tiara tried to embrace her.

"Are you okay ?"

Jessica did not answer.

Tiara immediately brought Jessica to sit down and calmed down.

I just stood there and could only see them.

The guild master looked at me and said.

"Sorry to interrupt your time. Introduce I am the chairman of the Central City Guild Association. My name is Faiz Delanggu."

I just found out the name of this guy, even though we met and passed each other a lot.

I thought for a moment, why is her family in isolation while she freely wanders around, is it possible because of her position.

I rushed to the bench and sat away from them.

To be honest I don't know what's going on, neither does Tiara and her friend from her facial features.

Faiz sat next to the vice guild leader named Raihan Oedo and started talking.

"Right now there's a group of parties that are in danger because of that person's fault."

Faiz's direction towards Jessica.

Faiz continued speaking.

"With his foolishness he received a quest from an outsider whose existence was far from this city. The Guild Association party of the Southern city had already confirmed that the person was lying about the quest."

Faiz put both of his hands on the table with a sharp gaze, his aura so strong.

"And with her ease, Jessica accepted the quest without investigating it. Currently the quest was being run by 6 V-class Knights. Do you know why I called you here ?"

"We don't know."

"I'm not."

Amelia and Dwi answered.

I thought for a moment about Faiz's words about the 6 V-class Knights.

*notes

Here Andre does not know friends Bagas friends, because Bagas himself never talked about it or told him.

Faiz continued speaking.

"The Guild Association side of the Southern city confirmed that their intended place was the Qera Cave where it was a nest for the numerous Minotaurs and not the Slime's nest."

*notes

The cave is a natural hole in the ground that is quite large and deep.

Tiara and her friend were shocked when they heard her.

"Oy, that's right !"

"That's an A-class monster"

"They're in danger, let alone it's the lair of the Minotaur Monster."

I'm starting to understand now. So actually it is a fake quest that is written by the Slime Monster but in fact it is not the Slime Monster but the Minotaur Monster.

"So that's it."

I think this person is quite dangerous, especially those new V-class Knights only.

I looked at Jessica, and I thought back to her story in the park.

"(Don't tell me the V-class Knight that woman told me about. She should have cried.)"

Faiz continued speaking.

"This was indeed our fault, as it gave a dangerous quest to them. Therefore, I beg of you to save them immediately !!!"

I still don't know who's running that quest.

"I'll give you a quest to save them. Jessica, Tiara, Amelia, Dwi, Sri, and Andre you should be able to bring Adit, Kahfi, Shiva, Angga, Rian, and Bagas safely."

Deg

Deg

Deg (Heart sound)

My heart beat so fast when I found out that Bagas was in danger.

"Jessica will be in charge of Java...."

I kicked the table hard and stood rushing away.

Tiara was also shocked when she heard him.

"Hey, where are you going ?"

Faiz tried to stop me.

"Shut up !!!"

I put a sharp look at Faiz.

I opened the door and hurried away from this place.

I have to hurry to save her, otherwise... I'm gonna lose my only precious friend.
