The goddess of the night is seen hanging in the darkness of the night. The small party in the remote village was done with pleasure. The faces of the citizens who originally looked gloomy and frightened now no longer exist. Just a face with a warm smile without any burden. Unlike the two people who were still thinking about the words of the Village Chief who were now ringing in the mind.
The warning and the little story told by the Village Chief were able to make Senior Fans and Amdara start thinking about what plan to do upon arrival in the village of South Earth.
There was one thing Amdara needed to ask before the end of the banquet.
"Village Chief, what are the characteristics of the disease?"
The Village Chief stroked his long white beard. He seemed to be thinking hard until his forehead shriveled.
"They are .. From what I heard, they have purple spots all over the body. Red eye color, and suffered from severe injuries to the legs."
What was said to the Village was clearly not the original type of disease but only its characteristics. However, it is enough to find out what disease. A disease that attacks is usually not from its characteristics alone to get the type of name of the disease but must be seen from what the sufferer feels and does.
Senior Fans and Amdara have only just heard of the characteristics of this disease. They did not even understand what the Village Chief had said before. However, it is believed that this disease is not just any disease that can be cured easily.
"Can't they activate the power?"
Smart question! Amdara comes across these villagers who can not issue power because they are absorbed by a creature. However, wasn't it said that in the Southern Earth village there were no creatures? So why do they get the disease?
"I don't know for sure, but I just remembered this one important thing, son. From the village of South Earth only ordinary people at the lowest level in the First Stage Level."
Nothing the high-level Village Chief said there. Amdara began to think that at least at the same Gold Stage Level it seemed like it was unlikely that it would be able to escape the infectious disease, right?
However, what about his companions who could not even activate the power?
"Tonight you rest in my house. I'll set the place up. As I said before, don't take big risks just for the sake of the mission. You better think about it."
The Village Chief smiled, he was allowed to leave because his aged body had to rest a lot. And ask them to rest immediately as well.
Amdara and Senior Fans looked at each other as if giving a lot of questions through those eyes.

In the room that the Village Chief provided for Inay and his other female friends, Senior Fans, Dirgan and Atma also gathered there. Senior Fans began to feel like a father who was accompanying his son in discussion.
In the Village Chief's residence itself was not too big. He only gave me three rooms.
Amdara explained as the Village Chief explained about the village of Bumi Selatan. However, it was explained that someone asked. Maybe because Amdara's explanation is less than a sentence. Senior Fans also added a little.
"It's very risky. So you guys stay here."
Atma who was drinking water was made to choke on hearing the last sentence. He coughed, Dirgan helped calm down.
"Senior, what do you mean?"
Of course they were all made to jerk. However, not with Amdara knowing the situation. He agreed with Senior Fans opinion. It was too dangerous for his friends to come to the village of South Earth.
Dirgan, "but we've got here. How can you stop the mission?"
Rinai, "huhuhu. Is that village very dangerous for us who haven't been able to activate the power, Senior?"
Veneer, "khaakha. We agreed from the beginning we would go together. And we know that infectious disease, Senior. Khakhaas. Why is it like this?"
Atma, "what? But why?!"
Dirgan, Atma, Rinai, and Nada refused. They disagreed with the Senior Fans who suddenly made up their minds. Senior Fans knew it would be like this so he had already thought about how to get the boys to agree.
"It's for your safety."
They still disagreed and insisted on going to the village of South Earth. Inay who had been silent glanced at Amdara who was listening to further explanations. It was hard to make a child understand his circumstances. Debate continues to occur, firm rejection from Dirgan, Atma, Rinai, and Nada makes Senior Fans dizzy themselves. Until they were silent when Amdara spoke the unexpected.
"We didn't come to deliver life."
Amdara exhaled. It was true that he said, the preparations for going to the South Earth village were also incomplete. If they are determined to come there, only lives are lost without helping their citizens.
Already far away, many obstacles they faced only to come and save the villagers of Bumi Sekatan. If they mat* then everything is in vain. Previously they only thought infectious diseases were in mission rolls only ordinary diseases. However, after hearing from the Village Chief himself made Amdara think whether they could solve it well.
Amdara became sorry for agreeing to his friends join together on a mission. If only he was not selfish when he intended to complete this mission, then his friends would not be hurt. He also will not get Red Yarn which makes it difficult to remove and absorb the power.
A few minutes no one uttered a sentence. They are all struggling with their own minds. Until finally Dirgan is seen exhaling a long breath before speaking.
"Well, you're not wrong either. I thought taking on a mission was something easy. Apparently not, dad?"
She smiled smirk. Imagining it was difficult just to arrive at the village of South Earth. He's a Class Leader who has to think more calmly.
"I ... huhuhu. I don't want to mat* before activating the power and achieving the purpose of life. Huhuhuhu."
Rinai hugged her knees and cried as usual. He made Nada nod in agreement after thinking more calmly. Although it feels heavy if you have to stay in this village to wait for Senior Fans to South Earth village.
Atma smiled obliquely, she looked at Senior Fans differently. "We're a hassle, huh?"
Everyone's gazes turned to Senior Fans who immediately shook their heads and said, "no. Just got me in a little trouble."
Dirgan, Atma, Rinai, and Nada smiled in knots. Their feelings are mixed. They had been less sensitive so troublesome Senior Fans.
Amdara scratched slowly on the cheek. He did not expect this 'uncle' to speak so blatantly. He became offended because he always relied on Senior Fans because of this outrageous Red Thread. And also this was not a mission that Senior Fans had to undertake, but he had to get involved because of her.
Inay looked at the faces of his friends who looked sad. He said, "you can help this village. Doesn't it make any difference? To petrify a village in trouble."
Amdara who heard it agreed. "Mn, right. That will add to the experience."
Dirgan and his three friends looked at each other before finally nodding.
"Well, okay. How else? We'll help this village alone."
The words Dirgan represented the others made Senior Fans, Amdara, and Inay exhale in relief. That way tomorrow morning they'll be gone soon.

Early in the morning, Senior Fans, Amdara, and Inay had gone and witnessed by the Village Chief and several citizens. Dirgan, Atma, Rinai, and Nada also saw their departure.
Last night Senior Fans had been looking for more information regarding the South Earth village. So also with Amdara who can not just be silent. Last night he said he wouldn't leave, but his friends were suspicious. They say Amdara is more cowardly and rarely gives off power. Obviously they did not know Amdara's true state. And Amdara had no intention of saying it either, worried that they might be more worried about Amdara. Senior Fans and Inay also had no intention of telling it.
At first Inay objected to Amdara coming along but since Senior Fans said it was okay, Inay could not refuse him anymore either.
Inay asked a lot of things to Senior Fans. One of them is what steps they must do upon arrival in the village. As Amdara expected, they would analyze the surroundings for the next step. If circumstances permit, they will do something and if not they are forced to return.
The distance to the South Earth village was quite far but due to the strength of Senior Fans, they got there much faster.
They're sticking to the tree branch. About fifteen meters away was a huge gate made of quality iron as well as a huge snake statue welcoming them. The wind felt different. There are no signs of life at all. Even the sounds of animals are not heard.
There were no gatekeepers, making them quite vigilant. Plus their feelings are not good.
"Senior, what did you see in the village?"
Amdara asked, he felt nothing. Inay only used his hearing sharply, but he only heard the sound of the wind.
Senior Fans focused on his eyes, as well as his hearing. For five minutes, he realized the awkwardness.
"I'm not sure, but no one."
Amdara shook his head, something must be wrong. If indeed the villagers have mat*, shouldn't there be a pungent smell from their maya? But Senior Fans did not even say there was a smell of maya*.
"Have they disappeared? If so, we'd better go in to investigate deeper."
Senior Fans nodded in agreement to Inay. But Amdara prevented and said, "awhile. Don't get us stuck."
Amdara recalled the Village Chief saying that the villagers of Bumi Selatan could not get out for some reason. It is possible that if they also enter it will be difficult to get out.
Amdara took a stone, and asked Inay to throw it at the gate. Inay did it without a second thought, he should not be rash.
A loud sound from the reflection of the stone was heard. At first there was nothing suspicious until there was a sound from the inside that was quite creepy.
