The Reincarnated Ruler

Eps. 54

READ, LIKE AND COMMENT✨✨✨

I took Dessy, Xion, Leo and Fernand, and Willy. Oh yea! Selia couldn't come along because she was still busy taking care of something. It seemed like he was very busy because something had happened in his Kingdom.

Dessy also told me that Selia often went back and forth to her Kingdom. And often asked Dessy to do her job. Instead Selia will finance Dessy's living expenses as long as Raisa is not around.

Although Raisa has given Dessy quite a lot. But Selia still gave Dessy some gold coins. Well... Rather than refuse sustenance right? Then it's better that Dessy just take it.

“ Actually what is going on in the South Wind Kingdom? A leo? Fernand's? Do you know anything?”

“ The South Wind Kingdom is being preoccupied with the appearance of land monsters attacking its citizens. I heard this monster is very ferocious”

“ Really? This is very worrying..”

I did not expect that such a ferocious monster was attacking the Celia Kingdom. He just seems so tired. He must not have slept enough to solve this problem.

We kept walking out of the academy. Tracing the path shown on the map. Following the right direction. Until we got in front of a very large and tall tree.

“ Wah... This tree is very beautiful.. Very large and tall. We can shade and rest here for a while”

“*Simple nodding head*”

Xion climbed up the tree quickly. Just like a monkey. I think the silence in the classroom made him miss the forest. His residence. I see he is very happy to be in nature like this.

“ Come on Xion... Quick down... Are you so happy to be in the wild like this?”

“ Yap! I'm so happy! Raisa... Next time if you go out adventuring like this take us too..”.

“ Did you miss me when I was outside?”

“ Yes... I miss you so much.. *get down and hug Raisa*”.

“ Come... Release..”.

“ Raisa... Is she your partner?”

“ Pfft... hahaha.. He is Xion. Can be called as a pet more precisely..”.

I was shocked when Willy asked me that. Well. I guess he got a little weird with Xion. Because Xion is really spoiled for me. Just like a little cat asking for his master's attention.

Because the time given by the teacher is uncertain alias there is no limit. So we can relax for a moment. We spent a night camping under this tree.

The others had already slept well and were already inside the dreamland. I'm still used to myself sleeping late. I climbed up the tree and sat on one of the rather sturdy trunks.

“ Haeh... If seeing a moon like this it feels like I can pluck it and hang it in my room”

“ If you are so. That means you're very selfish, son. Have a month just for yourself”

“ Hah! Who's that?”

“ It's me.. I'm a tree. Tree that is often dubbed the benevolent tree”

“ Oh... I'm sorry.. I guess who's talking... Are you the only one who can talk?”

“ Yes. Only I can speak.. *sigh*”.

“ Why can you talk?”

“ Because there is someone who gives me energy and makes me able to talk and live. Tapia pa's point if I'm just alone. Day looks at the Sun and night looks at the Moon alone. I don't know how many years I've been like this”

“ Surely you are very lonely”

I talked for a long time with that kind tree. She told her lonely story after a kind elf died.

This tree tells a lot of stories and is quite long. Makes me difficult to sleep as told by Mama and Papa. Not long after being told off I fell asleep and leaned against the trunk of the Tree.

The next morning no sound came out of the kind tree. The others had already woken up first and tidied things up. Especially Dessy who was getting ready.

Xion climbed up the tree and woke me up. I went down and washed my face. We had breakfast first. Then continue the journey again. I wonder why the tree is no longer alive.

Was last night just a dream?

We left immediately after finishing breakfast. When I looked at the tree. I immediately remembered what he said last night that he was very lonely.

“ Raisa? Is something wrong?”

“ Ah... No.. Let's go...”.

We continued our journey to Queen Silma's Palace. Before that we had to go through the forest first. This forest looks very green and thick. There are many small animals in this forest.

“ Wah.... It's really beautiful.. It's like a garden... Dessy right, Miss?”

“*Reply Dessy words with a smile*”

We looked at this forest in amazement because it looked so beautiful. Makes anyone would be amazed to see this forest. Many colorful butterflies surround this island.

We decided to continue walking until we reached a very high and large mountain. Unexpectedly lightning and dark clouds hung over our heads. Forcing us to take shelter for a moment.

It just so happened that there was a fairly large cave near the mountain. We entered slowly into the dark, eerie and gripping cave.

“ Wait, Miss.. *insert stone into cave*”

Leo throws a small stone to check the situation inside the cave. And after waiting for some time Leo finally gave us a signal to go into the cave.

This cave is very dark, damp and a little smelly. Maybe because of bat droppings everywhere. Well. We were a little disgusted by that. But still. We need a place to shelter.

As I expected. Rain fell heavily and lightning also enlivened this rain. Makes the atmosphere more tense. We don't know when the rain will stop.

‘Cit.. Cit.. Cit..

We looked straight into the cave. The sound is more and more. Like the sound of a bat! Why is his voice so much? Well, this is a cave. Where there are caves there must be bats.

Moreover, we have absolutely no idea where the sound of the bat came from. We are increasingly alert to the sound of bats getting closer. His voice is getting clearer. And as we prepare to attack. Turns out it was…

A dwarf?

“ Hey! Who are you guys into our house?”

“ Us?”

“ Yes! We!”

The dwarf climbed the animal like a mouse. But a rat that's the size of a donkey! So unbelievable! There are dwarves in this world too! When he said the word ‘We’ appeared some other dwarves as well.

Approximately the total of them are all 7 dwarves. It's really like the ones in fairy tales! Are these dwarves real? Did I really see the real dwarf?

“ Forgive us, dwarf. We just want to take a moment. Once the rain has cleared we will be gone soon. Please allow us to take shelter briefly”

“ Hmm... I think you kids are pretty polite and nice. Come on.. Follow us. It's very dirty. This rain may be up until night. You just come with us *walk out of the cave while riding a mouse the size of a donkey*”

“ Go... It's okay *like reading a spell or something and then get out of the cave*”

The dwarf walked under the rain. But he's not wet one bit. There is only a thin membrane that protects it from raindrops. We who saw that were immediately a little surprised and stunned.

Then we followed the dwarf out of the cave. And sure enough we were not hit by the raindrops at all. I don't know what the dwarf did.

He led us to a small cottage a little bigger than the dwarf. I had to squat down to get into this cabin. But when entering it was not the same as seen from the outside.

This is almost similar to the concept of Ai's house. From the outside it looks small, tight and narrow but when entering the room turns out to be very large, spacious and relieved.

“ Wahh... Really unexpected..”.

One of the dwarves led us into a dining room. There are enough chairs in here. One of the dwarves prepares food in the kitchen. Dessy and I went to the kitchen to help.

“ Can I help?”

“ Oh... Oh.. This... Of course you can help...”.

“ Thank you”

“ Do you guys often receive guests like this?”

“ Not really.. Actually we often accept guests who only have a pure and innocent heart. There is no evil intent. But a few months ago there was someone who visited and stole our heirloom. Therefore, the leader became more choosy in bringing guest”

“ Oh.. It turns out so”

Well. It seems I know who the dwarf meant. None other than Diana. Who is collecting all the heirlooms of the inhabitants of this world.

But if it's true he stole all the heirlooms. What'd he do it for? If it were to destroy the world, wouldn't this be too serious?

We had lunch together at that time. Some dwarves told of his uneasiness while inside the cave back then. He said something was creeping in the cave.

“ What are you going to the cave for?”

“ We are collecting diamond”

“ Diamond?”

“ Yes. The diamond we use for weaponry” material

“ Weapons?”

“ Well.. Lately there's a swarm of birds attacking our fields. We tried several times to get rid of the birds. But they always come back. We don't know what we should do”

It turned out that they fought the bullies with catapults and diamonds. Diamonds are harder than stone.

It is unfortunate that the fate of diamonds in this world, hahaha. And used to pelt bird pests anyway.

It's a pity I can't bring home a single piece of diamond the size of a fingernail to the human world. Maybe if I bring it will get rich right away. Hahaha... My thing has gone too far, huh?

Place of the Good Heart Tree

“ Haeh. Can chat with the god of death”

“ Hng... Hng... Old grandpa! Hi!”

“ Who are you?”

“ I am Jiu! Miss Raisa gave me to you. Intend to accompany you here. But if you want to kill yourself, I'd better just go”

“ Hi brat! I really want to have friends! You're just gonna go? Don't know whether to spend dinner alone or not.”.

“ Really?”

Dwarf Cottage

Raisa is

“ Doesn't feel it's night. The rain stopped but it was still night. You guys should stay here last night. Outside is too dangerous. We will prepare some rooms for you”

“ Hmm..

“ Don't call me that. Just call me Do”

“ Good, Do”

“ I think your other friends have gone to their rooms. You should also go to your room before late night”

“*Nodging head*”

I immediately went to the room that had been prepared by a dwarf. I'm rooming with Dessy. And Dessy went to bed first. I understand that, probably because he was too tired on the way.

I'm getting ready to go to sleep. But when I open the blanket. Is there a small black cat?! Ahhhh! Whose cat is this? Why is it under my blanket?

The cat looked weak and helpless. Like fatigue or something. His breath looks cramped. It makes me worry to see it. What happened to this little cat?

I slowly drain the healing energy. Within a few minutes, the little cat slowly opened its eyes. And staring. I touched her ears gently but.

“ Who are you! Why are you touching me?!”

“ Haaaahh? Is this your reply to the man who saved you?”

“ I never asked you to save me!”

“ Hng. You're drugged to snake. Need to flow healing energy several times will be completely lost”

“ Ugh... You... Your base.

“ Whatever you want.. *climbing the mattress and going to bed*”.

I can't believe he's changed. His breath seems to be getting crowded. And maybe if I don't wake up then his life will be gone. And soon out of sight. If so, I will sin.

Immediately I got off the bed and tried to drain the healing energy through the affected part of the snake. But the little cat pushed me away until I hit the bed.

“ Go to you! You said you didn't want to save me! You better just go! *trying to endure pain*”

“ Akh... (Dam! My blood is out again! I'll drain the energy from far away!)”

Even though my strength was drained a lot, I was still trying to drain the healing energy from afar. He who seemed to be gasping could finally breathe normally.

And when I'm done draining the healing energy. My vision began to blur. And I think my head is bleeding too. Maybe because of the bumping.

Well. It's okay. Just hit a little bit. This is better because the black cat demon can be separated from the snake that bites it. This way my guilt is a little bit gone. Even though I still felt a little annoyed by her behavior that night.

Really don't know thank you! The huft!
