There was the sound of knocking on the door in a room, after waiting for some time. A young woman opened the door to the room. Inside the room was a girl with a serious look on her face reading a book.

On the table before him were many piles of other thick books that were like demanding to be read, the girl did not even realize there was someone who had entered her room.

"Hmm.I think something bad happened to you, so you haven't been visiting me lately"

"Ekh!? Mommy?! Since when is Mom here?"

Alalea finally lifted her face from the book she was holding, Azalea with her wooden chair immediately entered the room with a gentle smile.

"So...Is there anything you want to say?" azalea Tagih.

"I'm sorry ma'am" Alalea replied immediately and then returned to reading the book she was holding.

Azalea picked up one of the books on the table, and raised her eyebrows after reading some of the titles.

"This is all the magic books in the library, lately you seem to be getting more and more active in practicing. But there's no harm in you telling me first, right? So that your beautiful mother doesn't worry"

"Don't I apologize? And what the fuck is that you're beautiful" lead Alalea while turning the pages of the book.

"I've never considered myself beautiful, someone has said it these past few days"

"Eh...who?" ask Alalea cuek.

"Aryans"

SRAKKS

"Hhhh...!!! No...! Book's torn!" alalea shouted hysterically as she stood up from her seat

"What are you really doing?" ask Azalea wonder.

Azalea gently swung her hand, the book held by Alalea immediately lifted into the air and immediately fused back together. The book fell on the surface of the table as before without the slightest flaw.

"Mother...? do you know what I learned for? Can you not make my concentration crumble?" alalea complained as she stomped her feet in annoyance.

"Of course I know Miss Elf race representative, fine then. Goodbye, don't push yourself too much" waving Azalea as she walked towards the exit.

"A.ap.is he really saying that to you?" chirps Alalea suddenly.

Azalea stopped her steps and turned to her only child, "Why don't you just ask it yourself when you've arrived in Elemental City"

"A.ak..aku only—"

"Oh yeah by the way, that scarf looks good on you. Can I borrow it?" azalea Goda.

Alalea immediately clasped tightly onto the blue scarf she was wearing and buried her mouth and nose there, "Eh?! It's got—"

"Hahaha I'm just kidding, bye...."

"MOTHER?!"

After her mother was finally nowhere to be seen again, Alalea looked out her bedroom window. No one knew behind the scarf that a smile was already on his face.

"What is he doing?" mumbling slowly.

"My sister pikku pikku"

Arya opened her eyes slowly then sat down, she tried to stretch her achy body while yawning widely. To be honest he woke up because the sound of "my sister" that had sounded like it was revolving around him.

He checked his left leg once again, it looked better than before. Although still a little stiff when moved, he also stood up and threw a view out of the nest.

The little green creature that brought him here earlier was stepping around the nest with a standby look while humming leisurely.

"My sister pikku pikku"

"Mmm...good morning?" chirps Arya.

The creature immediately turned to Arya enthusiastically, he approached while tilting his head.

"My sister?"

"She, I'm better. Thank you for helping me, if I may know....what are you doing?"

The little creature stuck his right hand on the temple like paying respect to Arya, Arya who saw that could only say "Ahh" quietly while nodding.

"Then..e.thank you for sponsoring me while I slept"

"My sister pikku"

KRUYUKIS....

"My sister!?" the little creature gasped in shock after hearing a voice that suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

"Ahahaha sorry, that's my stomach. No need to worry" Arya explained quickly while scratching her head.

The creature then immediately entered the nest, he stood a while next to Arya in silence. And without the slightest warning he took out a piece of fish body from his mouth, he then thrust the piece to Arya.

"I don't think it's necessary, I think you need it more" Arya refused, taking out some pieces of bread and fruit from her bag.

The two of them ended up having breakfast in silence, after being content to fill the stomach. Arya finally realized something.

"You're this.....a Platynguins right? Where's herd? You can't stay in this place alone, can you?"

The platynguins then raised both hands and growled, Arya seemed to think for a moment. He was trying to digest what the creature was trying to tell him.

"Ahh...The werewolves caught them?"

"My sister" Platynguins said sadly.

"Hmm...hey you know? I think I know where they're locked up"

"My sister?" platynguins eyes were sparkling with interest.

"Right, how about I help you free them. As a sign of gratitude for helping me before" Arya bargained.

"My sister..—"

"It's okay, it won't be dangerous. I have a plan" Arya stood up while cleaning her clothes.

He lifted the Platynguins and placed the creature on his shoulders, then he immediately took his tools and came out of the nest.

"Mmm...By the way, do you have a name?" arya asked after they came out of the nest.

"My sister?"

"Hemm.. well, I'll call you Pikku from now on" said Arya as she disappeared among the snow falling from the sky.

Far away was a figure of a person who was walking limping, the person was trying to climb a steep cliff. Several times he stopped to catch his breath.

"Rena, we can take a break if we need to"

"It's okay, it's okay. I can still" he murmured as he continued on.

Since separating from Arya, Rena has continued to search the mountain where the South Black Winter Diamond energy came from with the help of Rei. They had climbed the mountain for almost a full day, Rei was certainly worried about the physical condition of Rena.

"We don't know how the black gem is protected, so be careful" Rei recalled.

She doesn't know what horrible thing Arya would do to her if anything happened to Rena. Although he himself does not know what the conditions and where Arya is at this time.

While Rei was lamenting his nasip, the one in Rena's head was currently only one. He should be able to obtain the South Black Winter Diamond at all costs, he was already too troublesome for Arya.

If he could, he would love to get the thing alone without involving Arya. To avenge all that Arya has done for her all this time, every single one of her thoughts on Arya somehow hurt her heart.

Rena can only pray that Arya is okay, suddenly Rena daydreams broke when Rei finally interrupted slowly.

"We're almost there, I'm sure right behind that cliff"

Rena quickened her pace, she used almost all the rest of her energy to pass through the cliff. But the color of his face immediately disappeared upon seeing what was waiting for him there.

"What does it—"

---------------------------<<\ data-tomark-pass >>--------------------------------------------pass <TAG1>

"Well, did you see a big cage there?" arya asked while pointing at a giant cage in the distance.

"My sister pikku"

"I think that's where your flock is locked up" explained Arya.

The confinement was a confinement that she and Rena had seen before, honestly Arya did not believe she would return to this place after the incident that befell her. And of course with a pretty ridiculous reason according to most people.

"But as you can see, getting there is not easy. The fortress was full of Werewolves" Arya pointed her canine teeth at Pikku.

"My sister...." The platynguins nodded while looking thoughtfully hard.

"But take it easy, that's why we make a plan. So all you need to do is—"

---------------------------<<\ data-tomark-pass >>--------------------------------------------pass <TAG1>

Arya was already preparing for her position, so the plan they were going to do was to lure one of the Werewolves on patrol to catch Pikku. Before the demon catches him, Arya will take down the werewolf.

Arya hid above one of the trees while putting her ears well, a few moments later she heard a noise in the distance. He could see two figures chasing each other.

It can be ascertained that the small green figure that is being pursued is Pikku, it turns out that the Werewolf who is chasing after Pikku does not change its form. The man looked violent and tried to catch Pikku with drool dripping.

Finally the Werewolf managed to catch Pikku where it had been planned, Arya was quite surprised to see the fact that the Platynguins had a fairly fast speed of movement in the ice.

"Because of you! Hahaha I finally got mak—"

Arya jumped from the tree and landed softly on the snowy ground there, so soft werewolf was late to realize the arrival of Arya. He only realized the existence of Arya when the tip of the Aryan katana had already penetrated his right shoulder.

Arya's movements were so fast and sharp that the sword stuck into a giant rock, before the Werewolf could let out a cry of pain. Arya smothered her mouth with her left hand and quickly slashed the Werewolf's neck.

"Are you okay?" Arya asked Pikku while taking off the lifeless Werewolf gear.

"Huh...Pikku pikku" said Pikku while wiping sweat from his forehead.

"Hahaha this is just the beginning, our rescue mission starts from now on" Arya exclaimed while wearing a Werewolf robe to cover her body.

---------------------------<<\ data-tomark-pass >>--------------------------------------------pass <TAG1>

The whole point of Aryan's plan was to enter the Werewolf fortress using disguises, which was why he needed Werewolf gear to hide his scent. Because he was sure the smell must have been recognized by all the Werewolves there.

He managed to enter the fortress unhindered, the few Werewolves that passed by him no one suspected. Even they greet each other with Arya, the continuation of the plan is to free the Platynguins and get out of this place through the underground tunnel.

Arya was quite amazed by Pikku's calmness, she had remained silent and silent ever since hiding behind Aryan robes. Arya certainly put up the hood of her cloak so that it is not easily recognized by the Werewolves who have seen her face clearly.

They finally saw the cage, when everything seemed to be going smoothly. Someone called himself.

"Hey you!"

Arya glanced behind her back slowly, her heart slipping as she realized that the one who called out to her was a Noble-Tier Werewolf who had managed to catch her before this.

The man approached Arya, Arya did not dare to turn her head and just silently turned her back on the man. When Arya was about to run because she considered her plan to fail, the man said.

"Are you okay?" tanyakanya.

At first Arya was confused to find such a question, then she cursed in her heart because she realized that the robe she was wearing had a little blood spot due to the katana prick she made.

"Ehem-ehem, I'm fine. I just slipped a little from the hill while patrolling Master" Arya replied in a hoarse voice.

"So, next time you have to be more careful. Check your condition at the treatment barracks" he ordered.

"Well, I will" Arya replied with cold sweat that had soaked her body.

"Mmm...wait a minute you're in—"

"Mr Millos? You got a call from Miss Moona" call one of the Werewolves.

It was almost that the man touched Arya's shoulder, after hearing the call. The man named Millos was leaving immediately. Arya looked for a place to sit while sighing in relief.

"My sister?"

"Huh.tadi it was almost" he murmured softly.

---------------------------<<\ data-tomark-pass >>--------------------------------------------pass <TAG1>

Arya walked leisurely towards where the large confinement was located, the confinement was guarded by two lazy-looking Werewolves.

Arya then offers to replace one of them to keep watch, both of them want to be replaced. In the end they decided to be replaced in turns by Arya, although Arya already said he could overcome everything by himself.

When the other Werewolf guard is out of sight, Arya slowly settles to the back of the remaining Werewolf guard and breaks his neck.

"My sister?"

"Yep, it's done" said Arya as she opened the hood of her robe.

He took the key from the Werewolf guard and immediately approached the cage, the Platynguins who were there looked at Arya with fear. But they were immediately enthusiastic when they saw Pikku on Arya's shoulders.

"Shhhhhhhhhhh, don't be noisy, I'll get you out of here" whispered Arya.

After all the Platynguins came out of confinement, Arya made an ice tunnel on the ground. They all entered the tunnel to leave the fort. Not forgetting Arya put the body of the Guard into the cage so as not to cause a commotion.

---------------------------<<\ data-tomark-pass >>--------------------------------------------pass <TAG1>

Arya exited the ice tunnel she had created followed by the other Platynguins, she immediately closed the tunnel and turned to the small creatures who were looking at her curiously.

"Well get out of here and don't get caught again, my sister? Looks like our trip only got here because—"

AUUUS

"Currently, faster than I thought. See you all" Arya ran away waving at the Platynguins.

---------------------------<<\ data-tomark-pass >>--------------------------------------------pass <TAG1>

"Rena! I told you it's better we don't disturb the creature" Rei shouted hysterically.

"I've tried not to bother him!" reply Rena while running with all her might.

Behind Rena looks a silhouette of a giant creature that covers the dark sky.

---------------------------<<\ data-tomark-pass >>--------------------------------------------pass <TAG1>

Arya had been running aimlessly for almost an hour, every time she took a break to take a breath. Surely the sound of the howling of the wolf would follow him immediately, and even worse when he last looked back. The distance between himself and the Werewolf herd was getting thin.

He continued running without caring about anything in front of him, as he turned his head once more to look at the pursuers. Suddenly he hit or rather got hit by something.

---------------------------<<\ data-tomark-pass >>--------------------------------------------pass <TAG1>

They both rolled on the snowy ground as a result of the collision, Arya grimaced in pain while trying to see what or who she hit.

"Rena?!"

Rena who was still rubbing her head immediately turned her head after hearing that voice.

"Aryan?! You survived?"

"That's—"

"Eee....CAN WE GET OUT OF HERE!!!" shout Rei.

"You're right, we need to get out of here. The Werewolves are right behind me" Arya immediately stood up and helped Rena.

"The werewolf?! FUCK THOSE VILLAGE DOGS! Don't you see what creatures are following us?" grunts Rei upset.

"It's definitely ap—"

Arya's words immediately disappeared, she was flabbergasted to see the creature Rei was referring to. The creature is the size of an elephant, it has the body of a lion and also three heads attached there. Each is the head of a lion, a goat, and a dragon.

The three heads stared at them with murderous gazes, the creature also had two giant wings left and right of its body. Without warning he immediately darted towards the direction Arya and Rena were.

"Oh shit! Get down!" arya shouted while reaching for Rena as fast as she could.
