Episode 114 - The Bottom of the Gorge
“WHAT? MR ARYA FELL INTO THE GREAT WHALE BELLY RAVINE?!”
Harpyja rose to his feet unable to contain himself after hearing the story of Rattus bowing his knees in the presence of everyone. The euphoria of the mission's success instantly dissipated, horrified expressions began to appear.
“There is one who can explain to us what is Great Whale Belly Ravine?” timothy put on a silly face.
“Whale stomach?” Lexa, Elizabeth, and Selena stared at each other.
Kinichi then explained about the death of the rebels in the form of a bottomless ravine called the Great Whale Belly Ravine, as the name implies. The gorge has an immeasurable depth so that the belly of a giant whale.
When viewed at a certain height, the lips of the ravine will look like the mouth of a whale that opens wide. There has never been any news of survivors falling into it, even their bodies disappeared without a trace.
Therefore, Great Whale Belly Ravine became one of the choices of the Werebeast Zoonatia to end life due to depression and so on. There is news circulating that this ravine was formed because of the existence of Magical Beings of great power occupying it.
“Wire! We must form a team to help Captain” exciting Kevin rush –.
“I agree, let me go” Elizabeth volunteered.
“We also want to help guru” shouted Hachiru and Kyuran loudly.
“Stop, he doesn't need help”
The word – said shriek attracted the attention of everyone, their eyes were fixed right in the direction of Asuna. The Fire Elementalist folded his hands casually while leaning against the wall.
“Asuna you are this—“
“Not to worry. You know what kind of person he is, right? If he says it will be good – only then that's how it turns out. You heard Arya say to herself like it's a little mouse?”
Asuna's red eyes locked onto Rattus, with her body slightly shaking she nodded her head. The atmosphere became increasingly gripping, finally Rena decided to speak to dilute the situation.
“Relax, Arya brought some medicinal plants. I'm sure he survived”
“Better we prepare the next stage, so that when men – men annoying it back all this troublesome things soon end” closed Asuna before stepping away.
“Zayn?”
“We just follow, the Captain always says when he's not around. Better listen to the word – says Asuna”
‘Because Vice Captain will take the best decision once he is no’ Ali nodded followed by the others.
Not far from the gathering room, Selena had already caught up with Asuna. The girl stepped lightly before stopping right next to her friend.
“You said no need to worry but yourself even thought”
“I'm not worried about it”
“Eeehh....then? What about your promise to Alalea?”
“You eavesdropped?” asuna said astonished.
“Come on, the four of us have already tau” Selena defend herself.
“Ck! Basic, I believe wholeheartedly that he'll be back” soon
------><------
“Uhuk! Uhuk! Uhuk!”
“Mmm? You finally woke up too”
Kizuna woke up from a lying position while continuing to cough until her eyes water, she saw darkness enveloping the corner of the place. There is only one source of light, a campfire near where it lies.
Arrived – arrived he immediately moved away as soon as he realized the male – man he was chasing before was right across the blaze. Tying a bandage to her right calf wound, Kizuna tried to find her weapon but found nothing.
“Ugh...!?”
“Slight advice, you better not move too much. Scratches of your waist can open again”
Arya stared at the strange fox girl before her, be on guard. But moving like before when you just woke up requires great courage. Pain makes him also grimace, he is grateful to receive tools – first aid tools from Rena.
“Kyaa!!? What have you done to my body during the fainting base of perverted men!”
“Hah!? I'm just cleaning your wound! Also smearing some medicinal plants and taking them. Don't say as if – if I did something weird dong!” arya's spirit almost missed hearing the girl's scream.
“Lying! How dare you see a girl's body! Return my weapon!”
“What do you mean? They're right in front of you”
“HAH?!”
The hue of Kizuna's face immediately disappeared, her eyes staring blankly at the campfire. Gradual strength left both of his legs, as tears almost trickled down. An object was thrown at him.
“Because it looks valuable, I only use arrows. Sorry for not asking permission first. That's the only wood I can find”
Kizuna hugged her bow tightly, it was very valuable. Maybe even more than his own life. After quiet, the glint of the eye does not like to stab Arya sharp – sharp.
‘Hah...this will be a troublesome adventure’.
------><------
Arya was required to explain all the events after they fell into the abyss, honestly she herself did not remember too much. What is clear is that both landed in the water, then dragged by the current for how many meters.
With great effort and the rest of her energy, Arya managed to bring Kizuna's body to the edge. Then trying to start a fire and treat the wounds of – kuka, he claimed to have lost consciousness about an hour and a half. Fortunately it did not happen what – what.
“Until you finally woke up kemidian accused me of doing things – indecent things” said Arya cynically.
While pouting, Kizuna put on good ear – well. Indeed, the sound of water flowing not far from there, the fox girl then took a number of sticks of campfire as a torch. So down the river bank some time.
He found a cave, the water path still continues to get there. Arya who was feeling worried caught up with the woman. He said there was a possible way out at the other end and planned to explore it.
KRUYUK!!!
“Hmm? You hungry?”
“Ekh!?—“
Fast – fast Kizuna pressing her stomach, never thought feeling hungry would make herself shy earlier. Ignoring Arya's question, he walked to the riverbank to drink. Trying to clench the stomach with water.
Just until his eyes caught a movement, it turns out a lot of fish – fish with various sizes swimming there. The depth of the river on this side is fortunately shallow, without waiting again Kizuna directly into the water trying to catch the food.
Half an hour passed without success, upset he took the bow he wanted to shoot but immediately remembered that he did not have an arrow. Arya slowly walked towards the river while whistling leisurely.
Before Kizuna asked what she wanted to do, the sound of scattered threads filled the air. In a short time a large net catches a lot of fish easily, Arya burns all the catch and shares it with Kizuna who looks embarrassed and reluctant to ask.
But to refuse a gift is not a good thing, so he accepted then to eat Aryan-made grilled fish as easily as possible. After being full, Kizuna without saying what – went into the cave before.
“Congratulations” said Arya calmly, she also plans to explore the location.
But not long after, Kizuna returned. Her face was deathly pale, the fox girl sat quietly a thousand languages as if she had just experienced severe trauma. He only shook his head – geleng when asked about what happened.
“Eh? Why did you come back? Lost?”
“.....”
“Hungary? Too dark?”
“.....”
“Hmm....? Uh! What kind of monstrous winged creature is that on your back!?”
“KYAAA!!! KEEP AWAY FROM ME! KEEP AWAY....!!! Eh?” Kizuna was sculpting as soon as she realized there was nothing on her back.
“Ahh....you are afraid of bats apparently, pfft!?” muttered Arya with a trivial look.
“BASIC JERK!”
