The Last Whiteblood's

We Home..

Arion opened both eyes. This time, he found himself on the beach. The sound of the waves calmed his heart. The morning was not too hot, it could even warm his body, coupled by the breeze and the sound of birds flying on it.

He wondered where he was at the moment. Looking back and forth, Arion saw no one there. It was just him alone, until the voice of someone beside him shocked him.

"You're a big boy, Arion"

Arion turned his head quickly to the source of the voice. Her eyes widened, there was a beautiful woman beside her, wearing a long white dress. His hair was long, almost touching the ground.

"Mother.."

His eyes immediately glazed over. Over time, tears flowed down her cheeks.

"It's big but still crying, you cry" his mother chuckled as she wiped the tears from Arion's cheek.

"I miss you so much" said Arion.

"Mom knows that. I've always taken care of you and been by your side"

"Where are we?"

"Call this your subconscious"

"I never thought it would be this calm"

Mother chuckles. "Well, you'll never suspect it"

Suddenly, Arion remembered something. "As for the clan, is there anything I can do?"

"Of course, if it had a positive impact" Then, his mother stood up.

"Where are you going?" ask Arion.

"Mom's not going anywhere, I'm always by your side, remember?" His mother smiled warmly.

Arion's body emitted particles of light, he became confused as well as panicked.

"Wait a minute, there's a lot I want to ask Mom!"

"Mom sure, you can find the answer yourself" she replied waving.

...

..

.

Tears flowed down Arion's cheeks. He was asleep but his face was very sad. Seeing Arion like that, Daendra immediately woke him up.

"Arion! Hey, wakeup!" he said while shaking Arion's body slowly.

Arion woke up from his sleep. Realizing that her tears were running down her cheeks, she immediately wiped them and fixed her seat.

"You why?" ask Daendra.

Arion shook his head quickly.

"N-no, I'm fine"

"Prepare, we'll get there"

Arion nodded, he looked out the window. As Daendra said, they want to arrive. In front of it was the city gate.

The gate had been opened, the group of academy graduates went inside. They were immediately welcomed by the people there.

Arion glanced at Daendra. The man's hands trembled, Arion became astonished.

"Why are you shaking?"

"I.. hungry! Yes, I'm hungry" he replied, ngeles.

Arion raised one of his eyebrows, he didn't care about it either. They have arrived at the terminal, all parents and guardians of the students have been waiting for their arrival.

Unlike yesterday's departure, their return had no name for the division of the carriage by caste. They're mixed.

Aciel got off his carriage, assisted by one of the soldiers to drop his belongings from the carriage. Faesa also came down while carrying his belongings. All the students immediately reunited with their families in the terminal, the yearning mixed up to fill the terminal atmosphere.

Arion and Daendra got off the same train, adding to the aura of authority there. Both were assisted by two soldiers to carry their belongings, but the two Princes refused subtly.

"Wow.." Faesa is stunned to see Daendra who looks like Arion. "What did you eat?"

"Whispering" Daendra told Faesa.

They were escorted to the palace. The three sons of the palace princess have come home with knowledge. The three of them looked mature and were no longer like children who liked to fight all the time.

Arion and Daendra smiled, Faesa laughed. They reminisce about their childhood which is always tinged with commotion.

Finally, they arrived at the palace. The palace gate was opened for them, the three of them were welcomed by the royal family. Hanza and Lenia waited for their arrival on the palace terrace with smiles.

The three of them circulated the surrounding view, the front perk of the palace was decorated with blue crystals and golden light that was sown everywhere. Then, there were some dancers who greeted them while walking.

"That's pretty.." murmured Faesa.

"I think we're in the wrong palace" Daendra said, as amazed.

He stood before the King and Queen. There were already several royal officials standing with their sons, then there was Thomas, Dominick, Yaena and the one Daendra most yearned for, Rena.

He was excited to see the girl. She is now clad in stunning clothes for her, her hair tied up and her face dandan in such a way as a princess of the palace.

"Oi" whispered Faesa, breaking Daendra's daydream.

After Daendra regained consciousness, the three of them saluted Hanza and Lenia.

Lenia hugged Daendra. "You're big and very handsome. Your father even lost to you"

"Ehem! I heard that" said Hanza who felt insinuated.

"I-Mother. Now it's Arion's turn" he pulls Arion in to his mother.

"Oh yes! Mom almost forgot" while chuckling, she hugged Arion and stroked her head.

Yaena felt like stroking Arion's head which she hadn't felt for a long time. "Arion's hair is like sheep's hair, very fine" he said.

Dominick who saw Daendra familiar with Arion immediately frowned. He was confused and astonished.

Daendra hugged his father. Arion still spoke lightly with her foster mother with Faesa.

"You're already big. It already looks like the Crown Prince" Hanza said.

"Yes, am I worthy?" ask Daendra.

"Of course" the King replied with a smile.

Daendra glanced at Rena who was standing while holding her own hand.

"Arion, I want to see you" call Daendra. Arion smiled awkwardly, he knew Daendra's true intentions. "Searching for opportunities in narrowness" her inner self.

Daendra wanted to approach Rena, but Yaena immediately hugged her. Daendra was now taller than Yaena, making the Princess a little tame.

"I miss you, Prince Greed! You're very tall now"

"Yes, and you're still the same as you used to be, Princess Poor"

"What did you say?!" Yaena pinched Daendra's stomach until she grimaced in pain.

"Well, there's someone you really want to see from me" Yaena snapped Daendra's head, then went to Arion and Faesa.

"Crazy person" Daendra murmured as he rubbed his head.

Rena chuckled little to see Daendra grumbling like that. "Welcome, Prince" greeted him with a smile.

"It's Princess now, huh?" Daendra smiled ignorantly.

"T-no. Who is the Princess" Rena again nervous.

Daendra laughed crisply. "You look so" suddenly, Elijah appeared beside him.

"Daendra, I miss you so much" he said, explaining his face.

"Who are you?" Daendra gave a suspicious look.

Elijah was surprised and could not believe that Daendra responded that way. He walked away from there feeling humiliated again.

"Weird base" murmured Daendra. He looked back at Rena. Then, Faesa suddenly appeared from behind Daendra.

"So, you're Rena? Whoa! You're so sweet, you even beat this guy!" Faesa pointed at Yaena who was busy stroking Arion's head.

"What did you mean, huh?!" Yaena became upset, and she pinched Faesa's cheek.

"Agod! I'm just kidding!"

Yaena let go, then embrace Daendra and Arion who had not acted, just silently following the flow of the conversation.

"We go in first, there's a gift for you" said Yaena.

"Gift?!" The eyes of the three of them twinkled at the word.

***

"What the fuck? Waiting for the prize for a long time until gini night" said Daendra annoyed.

"Here you go, enjoy it" said Arion while eating toast, his favorite food.

Rena came, she had a small candle in her hand. Arion, Daendra and Faesa fell silent, they looked at Rena, their eyes following Rena walking into the middle of the field.

Then, appeared Yaena who was also carrying a candle. They stand side by side.

"Death ceremony?" ask Arion.

The people who were there stared intently at Arion. "I was wrong" he said.

Yaena and Rena sat on their knees and pointed the candle at the candle beside each of them. They burned the candle with fire in the candle they had brought before.

Then they blew out the candle. Instead of extinguishing, the fire in the candle is transmitted to the candles that are beside and continue to spread everywhere there is a candle.

The field was lit by the candles that were there. There were probably hundreds of candles that Yaena and Rena had prepared there.

Yaena clapped her hands twice, then came the light from the lights that had been installed on the trees and fences.

"Well." the three were stunned and could not say anything.

"Ta-da! Pretty and simple, right?" ask Yaena.

"It's awesome" replied Arion.

"You're great, Rena" praised Daendra.

"Eh? It's an idea-"

"It was my idea!" exclamation Yaena.

"Oh, that's fine" Daendra pressed both his shoulders.

"Arion, are you still there?"

The voice appeared in Arion's pants pocket. He immediately moved away and took the magic mirror out of his pocket.

"Eden's? What's up?" ask Arion.

"Go to Midorian Castle, meet me there the day after tomorrow"
