Night has passed along with the appearance of the sun marked with a black sky began to look bluish. The crescent moon that had been seen in the sky of Lister city had also disappeared and the chirping of birds and the sound of crowing chickens was increasingly a sign that the morning dawn had arrived.
Inside an old hut, the zero district of Lister city. The hut which is the residence of the Irish, a hut that has no other room other than the living room which is at once a dining room and sleeping room.
The hut measures 3x4 meters, yes.. Very small to live in but for Irish and her sister. The hut of his parents was more than enough as a place to rest and shelter from the heat, rain and cold.
It had been over 3 hours since they arrived at this hut, they were of course Irish, after all, Woli and Richard are still in a state of recovering energy and injuries suffered by him due to the fight last night.
Richard had no choice but to rest in the Irish shack, as he himself had no money to rest in a simple motel in town. Despite an offer from the great knight to stay in the castle, but he refused for some reason.. Reasons to no longer interfere in Inggram's royal affairs.
Last night their dispute was resolved well, the misunderstanding was cleared up after the great knights learned the true story of what befell the Snifoolers. Regarding Woli who is still a fugitive, for now the great knight Sir Jean Stephenson understood because Richard admitted to Sir Jean if Woli was his friend.
What Richard did was very helpful, so Sir Jean made a compromise. What's more, after seeing Richard's abilities with his own eyes, Sir Jean admits that what Snijder Stollen said about Richard's potential is true.. Richard was more worthy of being an ally than an enemy.
Inside the Hut, Richard sat leaning back while closing his eyes. Although Irish gave her a blanket but Richard refused firmly. However, on a cold night earlier, Irish needed the blanket more than she is currently focusing on recovering with the fire inside her.
Although forcing finally Irish relented, he fell asleep until now with his blanket. Meanwhile the Woli.. The werewolf who was very impressed with Richard followed Richard's style by sleeping while sitting and leaning against the wooden wall of the hut.
From the very first moment he supported Richard up to this hut, his eyes were always shining and he was very happy to meet Richard. The man who for one year has been a role model and purpose of his life.
The wounds of the two of them had also been quite healed due to the treatment of the Inggram royal magister or the treatment sorcerer after Sir Jean ordered his subordinates to treat them and it was helpful to remember that the current Richard was not having another blue eye crystal was the same as when he was still trapped inside the labyrinth.
The crystal had been thinned and lost due to overuse while Richard was still struggling inside the labyrinth. Although he had reached the bottom floor, but he still did not find the rare item because Ifrit said if the rare item was only 2 in this world. The first was used by Richard and the second.. That item was inside another labyrinth.
Even so, the magister did his job well. Coupled with Richard's strong endurance, the injuries he suffered within a few hours had already begun to recover. The drained energy had also started to return.. If you continue to rest like this then midday in broad daylight, maybe Richard can continue his journey, the journey to find the abode of the gods who are on the highest mountain.. Olympic mountain located somewhere on the mainland of Gres.. The largest area ever on the Neverland mainland.
At this quiet moment, Richard opened his eyes knowing that someone was in front of the hut. With a sharp look he looked at the door of the hut and was alert even though the injuries he suffered had not fully recovered.
A moment later the door opened.. The light was visible and Richard directed his hand forward to seal the dazzling light in his eyes. The woli that was awakened by the sound of the door opening immediately put up the horses.. He stood up and grumbled, he was on standby with the man who opened the door. "You!!!" His words extended his claws.
"Sister Woli!!!" A cute and funny voice sounded.
The lying Irish opened their eyes while rubbing their eyes. "What's this early in the morning?" He still collects lives.
"Sister Irish..." Just contact the little bunny girl in the arms of a passionate man directly down and run hugging Irish.
"Ahhhhhhhh.. Belle!?" Irish was quite surprised, she hugged her sister with haru. The two of them met back and hugged each other, happy tears emanating from his face. Belle greeted the man who had just carried her and thanked him.. That man is Eros Lopnika.
Woli should be wary because suddenly, Eros appeared in front of them. For Woli.. Eros and the knights were still enemies. But seeing what happened, Woli relaxed her vigilance and walked towards Belle. "Belle.. You're not papa, are you?" Woli asked as she rubbed Belle's head.
"Hmmm.." Belle nodded in her brother's arms. Then he looked back at Eros. "Uncle.. The uncle promised to take me to meet with my Irish sister.. And he has kept his promise." Smiling words.
Irish turned around, she was still sitting on the wooden floor looking towards Eros who was standing in front of the door. "Thank you, please." Awkwardly speech.
Woli was silent, even with Richard still sitting staring at Eros meaningfully.
Eros stood there, and then suddenly he knelt before the Irish. "I'm sorry!" Said while looking down.
Irish was surprised, even with Woli who saw Eros as low as it was in front of them.
"If I had been more sensitive to what happened, you wouldn't have suffered such torture. I'm sorry." Eros said to Irish with regret.
"If only I knew Mr. Grobogan was under the influence of demonic magic.. I hate to admit it but we knights did make a fatal mistake. The rising crime rate in the Lister region is also our fault as knights.. Therefore, forgive me.. "Eros lowered his head, he was truly sorry and sorry.
"Ehh.. Guys knights, please don't do that stand up!" Irish immediately stood up and bowed in front of Eros, she felt uneasy because after all that Irish felt unworthy of being treated like this, because she was just a commoner.
"And..." Eros raised his head, he looked at Richard.
"Mr Red.." Her speech. "Thank you for what you've done.. You really saved the Snifoolers... Thank you!" He knelt down while lowering his face as the deepest form of gratitude.
Richard did not flinch, he just kept silent while staring at Eros. While Woli and Irish were also staring at Richard to see his expression. But alas, Richard was expressionless, his face flat and uncaring.
Amidst his sincere apology, Eros recalled Sir Jean and Snijder's words as they both let Richard and Woli leave just like that.
*At the time after Richard left the castle.
"We should be ashamed of Eros... That man saved Madame Inggrid." Said Sir Jean.
"I still don't understand sir?" Eros was confused by Sir Jean and Snijder's remarks about divination and theatrics.
Sir Jean then explained to him about his attitude this time. Before Sir Jean and Snijder came to this castle, the two of them had met Lady Inggrid and at the meeting Lady Inggrid who wanted to return to the castle told Sir Jean everything about the demon Luca Crollo and her son Grobogan who had been manipulated by the demon.. Ingrid continued if a man with red eyes saved his life.
Hearing about the red-eyed man, Snijder instantly recalled something about the prophecy the holy knight had said 15 years ago, after all, just before the day of their sacrifice to re-seal the portal that separates Neverland and Darksideland. A parchment discovered by an earlier holy knight about the story of the strongest knight and the strongest knight had physical characteristics exactly like what Snijder had heard from Inggrid.
Sir Jean still wanted to make sure of one thing, therefore they both performed a charade and Sir Jean tried to fight Richard at his full strength.. After the fight, their eyes opened when they saw Richard blasting out a black flame.. A fire they had never seen before.
And because of that too.. They both came to believe that what the previous knight said about the strongest knight was true.. Richard's characteristics and power hills have led Sir Jean and Snijder to believe that this red-eyed man was what the earlier holy knights meant.. Where the red-eyed man will be the leader who will bring peace with his mighty power.
*At this time
Still with his condition kneeling down while bowing. Eros thought about it, the thing that Sir Jean told him if the man in front of him was going to be someone very important in the future.
There was something unknown to him, even Sir Jean and Snijder.. They all did not know that the man with the red eyes was Richard, the holy knight with the title of Ignis.
"Mr Red.. Once more. Thank you very much..." Eros confirmed his heart, he admitted that the man in front of him deserved to be rewarded for what he had done.
Richard was silent.. He's not expressing anything.
"Yayayayaa.. Haha.. My master is great." Woli laughed, he was very proud of the man he made a role model. "Mr Ric..."
"Shut up.." Richard was harsh.
Suddenly they all glanced at Richard who suddenly shouted. In a split second, silence struck the hut because of Richard's words.
"God.." Eros can't say anything.
"If your business is hard to finish, go.. I want a break." Richard said to Eros who was still kneeling.
"Well.. Yes, yes.. I'm sorry to bother you, Mr. Red. I'm gonna go.." Erosion stood up, he retreated slowly. "I'm sorry but there's one thing I have to say... You, you'd better get out of this town because after all you did but committed a crime by stealing the nobles' property.. So before the nobles act, you'd better leave." He said to Woli.
"Hehh... Tch, you stupid knight." Woli grumbled in annoyance.
"alright.. Excuse me." Eros pampered and closed the door again.
"Damn the knight.. He still threatens me. Mr. Richard how is this.." Woli arranged for Richard, but was unmoved because Richard had closed his eyes. Richard fell asleep again.
Outside the hut, Eros still thought about it.. Thinking of the great knight's words about the red-eyed man. Is correct.. He had also heard about it, hearing about the strongest knights from the mouths of the former holy knights.. The earlier holy knights obtained a parchment containing stories of the strongest knights who had blood-red eyes with extraordinary empires, the camp was obtained by the holy knights while they were on the highest mountain of Neverland Land, the Olympic mountain which was the land of the gods.
Also true.. The former knights managed to find the land of the gods on their way to reach the highest peak of their divine power. It was in the land of the gods that they found an old parchment containing stories of blood red-eyed men..
At the same time.. To the east of the land, on a fairly calm sea. There was a small boat that was swaying udders on the broom of a small sea wave, on the boat was seen two people who were lying in quite wet clothes. They were both unconscious, they were Ihsan Wijaya and Gayatri Ingalaga.
The two of them were unconscious after a night of struggling and surviving a storm of the sea that rained down on their small boat. With Ihsan's ability, they managed to survive and currently.. As the sun rose, they reached the sea of the kingdom of Skandia.
And without them knowing.. They were both surrounded by the large ships of the Skandian royal fleet.
