The Ultimate Internet Power

Longing

After meeting with Daru, all the influential figures began to spread rumors about the shop that was in the south. Although Daru does not ask them to do that, but they do it as a form of friendship to Daru. Unlike the five Noble Families in the Resia Kingdom, the three Royal Noble Families of Saria helped Daru by spreading rumors even to other cities.

Now, almost everyone in Waterfall City heard the news about Daru's shop, they began to save their money in a big way. There were no more people waiting in line in front of the Heaven House, the people who used to queue now worked harder to earn money to visit Daru's shop.

Daru realized the enormous enthusiasm of the people in Waterfall City, yet he did not feel enthusiastic at all, the reason being Frey.

"Two days, I should be able to endure the pain" Daru murmured as he looked at the ceiling of his room.

Emilia and Daru's relationship began to stretch since Emilia knew the story of Daru and Frey. Emilia was now trying her best to get used to Daru, but every time Emilia looked at Daru, she always felt small incisions in her heart. Daru is unaware of Emilia's condition as her mind is currently focused on Frey, Frey, and Frey.

Daru took out his smartphone and bought five teleportation stones from the Universal Online Shopping web.

"The Mang By package, as fast as the aironman," Veux said after suddenly appearing behind Daru.

"Mas Veux," said Daru listlessly.

"Why is his face bent like that, Mom? Heartache?" ask Veux while handing over the package.

"A little, Mas." Daru signed the receipt letter.

"If you want a story, a story, Mas. I gini-gini have a lot of ex, romance experience is also not less," said Veux proudly.

"Mas Veux has fallen in love with a woman who continues to be married?" Daru asked with a still lethargic expression.

"Oh, so doang .., easy this is mah. Hmm, if I ..., hmm, this weight is mah. Skip, see you later" Veux said before disappearing.

Daru had a flat expression when he saw the Veux that disappeared.

Even expert players could not answer. Hahh, Frey .., Daru said in his heart.

Meanwhile, at Sarren Hill.

"Two days, Daru. I can't wait to meet you, hug you, and explain all the misunderstandings between us. I miss you" muttered a beautiful woman in white who was sitting on the upper second floor of Daru's shop, that woman was Frey.

Now, his desire to meet Daru is at its peak, for the past week, Frey has always been checking the teleportation portal to check if there is a new teleportation portal embedded, if any, it is certain that it is Daru's location. But he could not find a new teleportation portal, indicating Daru had not yet planted his portal.

"Daru, can you speed up your return? I could die of longing" Frey murmured as he stared at the ceiling of the upper second floor.

....

Two days later, 2 hours before sunrise.

Daru waited for the people near the gate after planting the teleportation portal and arranged for the portal to be used only to head towards Sarren Hill and the opposite direction. Although the agreement was 1 hour before sunrise, Daru did not want his guests to wait.

Unexpectedly, there were thirteen people heading towards him. Daru recognized the seven people from the entourage, they were the ones who were at the meeting with Daru a few days ago. While the other six men, wearing armor with the coat of arms of the Kingdom of Saria, Daru believes they are the bodyguards of King Gustave because there is Trevor in the entourage.

After the party approached, Daru asked, "Mr Gustave, will your bodyguards come with us to Sarren Hill?"

"Yes, I can't leave the palace without an escort. Any issues?" asked King Gustave astonished.

"Did Mr Gustave not remember the first thing? People with war equipment bearing the symbol of a kingdom should not enter Sarren Hill," said Daru.

"But, Lord Daru, we must guarantee His Majesty's safety" said Trevor, standing behind King Gustave.

"You may do that, but you must remove your royal insignia. You can wear armor, but not with a royal emblem" Daru replied.

"Do what he asks. That's the rule there. I'm sorry, I was too excited to go there, so I forgot about it" King Gustave said.

"What's wrong, Mr. Gustave. Think of it as a reminder. But, if in the future it happens, I make sure your bodyguard will lose his head after setting the first step on Sarren Hill." Daru's expression was creepy enough that it made the people in front of him frightened.

Trevor and five other bodyguards immediately ran towards the palace to change into plain armor.

After a while, Daru saw the figure of someone in the distance who was pulling a cart that was quite large when compared to the size of the body of the figure.

Daru narrowed his eyes and immediately recognized the figure pulling the wagon.

"Grandmother Neia?" murmured Daru.

Daru ran over to the figure, leaving seven others wondering what Daru was going to do.

"Grandma Neia, don't you have a dimensional ring?" asked Daru after getting close enough to Neia.

"I sold it a few months ago to buy food. Don't mind me, Daru boy. I will carry my things with this wagon," Neia replied with a contrived smile to cover up her fatigue.

"Let me pull it, Grandma Neia," said Daru.

"Ah, no need. It's an easy thing for me" Neia replied trying to resist.

Daru immediately seized control of the wagon from Neia's hands and pulled it away. She did not use her dimension ring because she did not want if the personal belongings of a grandmother appeared in her mind.

Neia smiled at Daru and said, "You look like my granddaughter."

"Grandmother Neia? Where's she?" asked Daru while pulling the cart towards the gate.

"He died a few years ago, he's always been nice to me." Neia also shed tears when she remembered the beautiful memories with her favorite granddaughter.

"I'm sad too. You can think of me as a grandchild if it's similar, hehe," joked Daru to calm Neia down.

"Haha, you're too good to be my grandson." Neia smiled too.

They chatted with each other as they walked until Neia saw the figure in front of her, King Gustave.

"Your Majesty!" Neia cried out and bowed to King Gustave.

"Friends Daru is my friend too" said King Gustave with a smile.

Neia was startled and looked at Daru who was expressionless as if he did not care about the little finger of the left hand in his nostrils.

"Thank you, Your Majesty," Neia said after successfully standing up with the help of King Gustave.

Suddenly, the hurried sound of footsteps was caught by Daru's hearing. Daru turned to the source of the voice, and saw six of King Gustave's guards running towards him. They had replaced their armor with plain metal armor without any embellishments.

"We have finished changing" Trevor said.

Daru nodded and said, "Then, I will leave first and open the portal that is on Sarren Hill. After a few seconds I disappear, please stand on the stone of the teleportation portal and close your eyes." Daru pulled Neia's wagon and entered into the teleportation portal before disappearing.

Daru arrived at Sarren Hill.

"It's been a month" he murmured.

Sarren Hill seems deserted because it is still early morning. Daru's employees have not shown his activities to make him a little relieved.

In this way, I can secretly supply supplies without having to meet Frey if he still lives here, Daru said in his heart.

Daru immediately activated the portal on Sarren Hill and waited for his guests to come.

Shortly after, fourteen people arrived. The first thing he did was escort Neia to the dorm building so she could rest. Daru also put Neia's cart in front of the building to make it easier for Neia to pick up her things.

After that, Daru returned to his entourage of guests and let them enter the store to try the product.

Everyone sat in front of the counter except Daru and the palace guards who chose to stand outside. Daru said, "Please don't say too loud, many are still asleep."

The seven guests of Daru nodded and let Daru begin.

"Ehm, I'm sure everyone here has tried cigarettes. I will explain my other products ...." Daru began to explain the items he was selling.

The seven people were surprised when trying Daru products that could be eaten or drunk. They also bought the goods in large quantities, making the storefront quiet.

"In the restaurant and bar Bukit Sarren there are also new things, usually they will open about two hours after sunrise. Come here at noon if you want to try the menus at restaurants and bars.

They all seem enthusiastic. Since the sun had not yet risen, they decided to return to Waterfall City and return to Sarren Hill when the sun was high enough.

Daru escorted them to the teleportation portal.

"Daru, can you get me to King Vanir?" ask King Gustave before entering the teleportation portal.

"I can invite Uncle Vanir here. When do you want to meet him?" ask Daru.

"If you can, the day after tomorrow" replied King Gustave.

"alright. I'll send you a message about whether or not Uncle Vanir can be present tomorrow" Daru said.

"Thank you, I am truly indebted to you" King Gustave said before leaving Sarren Hill with his guard.

Daru can guess what the reason behind the invitation is.

Perhaps this time is a good time to open it, thought Daru referring to his plan after seeing the last person leave Sarren Hill.

"Now ..," murmured Daru before turning around and looking at his shop.

Daru walked towards his shop and descended towards the lower second floor. When Daru arrived on the lower first floor, he walked very slowly, he did not want to make any noise that could attract the attention of Shera, Sylph, and Frey who were likely in his room.

Daru managed to reach the second floor without causing a commotion. He immediately bought the store supplies after ordering Veux not to make any noise.

"Mas Daru, the package is coming." Veux whispered very quietly.

"OK," replied Daru who also whispered.

Daru as usual signed the receipt before Veux disappeared.

Time to get out, Daru said inwardly after putting all the store supplies in place.

Daru climbed the stairs connecting the lower second floor with the lower first floor very slowly. When he arrived at the lower first floor, Daru walked towards the stairs that connected the lower first floor with the upper first floor that was opposite. As he was about to climb the stairs, he fell silent for a moment before turning around and looking at the door of the room which was where Frey and Daru had slept in the past.

I wasn't ready yet, but I was eager to meet her, Daru thought.

After a moment of thought, Daru decided to approach the door of his room.

Daru extended his hand to the doorknob in a tremble. She hoped that when she opened the door, Frey wasn't there, but she also wished that Frey was there. What a confusing inner conflict.

Daru held the doorknob with his right hand. His expression was complicated, unable to be described with words.

Without Daru noticing, Frey did the same thing from behind the door.

Frey didn't sleep at all last night because she kept thinking about Daru. Right now he was confused, he wanted to wait for Daru in front of the teleportation portal right now, but he did not know when Daru would return. He was silent at the door for a long time.

They hold the same door handle from different directions. They are either hesitant to open it or not.

The longing of the two of them finally broke the doubt. They opened the door at the same time.
