Highest Place!
The Village In The Middle of the Death Desert, Part 1

"Wuuuiiiiiiiissssshhh"

A strong gust of wind with extremely cold temperatures blocked the flight from Rudy and Inara.

Well, what was waiting for them above the Ice Mountain area was a Mana energy storm with an Ice elemental attribute that was extremely cold!

It was only fitting that not a single living being had been able to break through it all this time, as this ice storm was even able to freeze the Mana itself.

It was fortunate that Rudy had learned about psychic energy, and he also had an enormous energy capacity, so he was able to withstand the impact of one of the other forms of such Mana changes.

(later we will explain about the elements attributes that are changes in the shape of Mana)

"Oh, this is crazy. Worth all who are chosen to be ushered in by the Gods directly! If only I had known it would be like this, arrggggghhhh, shit!"((fill Rudy's mind)

"the inscription?______Inara? You're not asleep, are you? oye? answer me Inara? hey?"(Rudy)

Rudy shouted to Inara who was carrying on his back, but somehow Inara did not respond to the call.

"Don't tell me you're asleep? Inara's? oye? Please don't joke at a time like this, hey?____ Inara?"(Rudy)

Rudy kept calling Inara but still there was no response. The panicked Rudy exerted all his psychic energy, then he accelerated his flying speed through this Mana storm.

Flashback to the day before.

Rudy and Inara who had completed the training, this afternoon had intended to cross the area of the ice mountains.

And now the two of them are chatting casually while eating at a restaurant in the town of SmallTown.

"So how much ManaCube have you absorbed in a single week?"(Rudy)

"Hmmmmm. That's about 200. 100 I use to strengthen psychic energy, and 100 more for my Mana/Spiritual energy. Emmm, why are you asking me that?"(Nautical)

"Sufufufufu. There's nothing. I thought you were a genius. Hemmmmm, I thought too much about it turns out, fufufufufufufu."((Rudy)

"Relig . . . You cocky! Huuuuuuu, how many did you absorb?"(Nautical)

Hearing the humiliation from Rudy, Inara even slightly frowned and asked back intending to compare her with Rudy.

"Hemmmm, Ra-Ha-Si-A, ckckckckckckckckck."(Rudy)

Rudy was unwilling to tell Inara that he had actually absorbed a total of 7000 more ManaCube during this one week!

The 3000 ManaCube he used to strengthen his Mana/Spiritual energy, and his 4000s he used to strengthen his psychic energy.

So if it was added with the ManaCube he had absorbed earlier, the total power for Rudy's current psychic energy was 6800 ManaCube. If the ManaCube wasn't used as a tunnel roadblock, Rudy would suck into the 10,000 ManaCube that was on the other side of the tunnel!

Well, all this time Rudy thinks that Inara also has a brain capacity comparable to him, because Inara has several times managed to thwart the genius schemes that he has prepared. But it turns out Rudy just thinks too far because of the recent events.

In fact, the reason why Inara was able to find out Rudy's schemes, was not because of his genius. But because the super brain belongs to Rudy is not focused on the fields of trivial social interaction.

Resume...

After finishing lunch, the two of them walked as usual without joining hands.

Currently Rudy still remains with the front backpack trend behind him, and other details do not need to be explained because it is just a waste of time.

As for Inara, ahem. He wears a blue fur coat that looks perfectly suited to his cuteness, then he wears thick red parachute trousers, and a pair of black boat shoes made specifically for hiking.

Resume...

The two of them continued to walk down the street that was close to the inn.

"Puk puk puk puk puk puk puk"

The sound of their footsteps moving in an orderly, directional, and controlled rhythm, ahem.

They intend to go to the park where they usually take off every day.

After a while, they finally arrived at the park. Then they look around to make sure that someone else is around.

After confirming that there was no one else, the two of them took off without holding hands!

What then?

"Ma? Ma'am? That's the brothers who often fly hand in hand every day."(loh."(Child Without Name)

"Oh yes, son. But this time it looks like they're not holding hands, hemmm. Could it be that they are both divorced?"(Mother Without Name)

Hearing the conversation of the mother and child just now, then made Rudy and Inara scream simultaneously.

And it turns out that without ever realizing that behind the big tree that is right in the middle of the park, there is a small green tent that is quite worn out with many holes in it.

Well, the figure of the Mother of this nameless Child seemed to have been divorced by her husband, then they ended up being abandoned just like that!

As a single parent, this nameless mother must fight for the survival of her young and innocent child.

And so it was, without Rudy and Inara realizing it turned out that during this week, this nameless mother and son always saw Rudy and Inara who always took off in this area.

Usually, this nameless mother and child will only see Rudy and Inara flying every morning from the hole in their tent, so even the super alert Rudy was never aware of their existence.

This nameless mother and son did not care even though they saw Rudy and Inara who could fly. All they care about is Rudy and Inara who should always fly hand in hand, that's all!

Maybe this nameless mother and daughter are tired of their past and have no time to think that a person who can fly is amazing.

And after seeing the nameless mother and child, Rudy took a large plastic package from his backpack. He then uses his psychic powers to fly the parcel to the place of the nameless Mother and Child.

Right now the nameless Mother and Child were standing in front of their tent while hand in hand looking towards Rudy and Inara.

Then the plastic package flown by Rudy floated right in front of the mother and the anonymous child. The nameless mother grabbed the package then, The mother of the nameless child heard a voice that went straight into her mind!

The nameless mother immediately cried and hugged her confused child because she did not understand what was going on.

Then, with a smile Rudy held Inara's hand and flew away leaving the mother and child without the name.

Seeing the figure of Rudy and Inara who left, the nameless child asked back to his mother.

"Ma? Ma'am? Why is Mom crying? Those sisters aren't divorced, are they? See that they're holding hands again now?"(Child without name)

"Yes, son, they're not getting divorced? hix . . hiks . . . It's okay, Mama's just happy right now, hix, hyx, hyx, from now on we can live in a better place, hix, hyx, hyx. Nor will we starve any more, hyx, hyx, hyx."(Mother without name)

And that's how this flashback story ends.

Finally, the nameless Mother and Child begin their happy new lives.

Continue to the present time.

Seeing Inara who did not respond, Rudy flew in a crazy way intending to immediately break through this frozen area. Then, after struggling with all her might, Rudy finally managed to get out of the area of the ice mountains and reach the other side of the world.

Rudy was still holding Inara who was unconscious on his back.

Well precisely at this time Inara was tied right on top of the backpack on Rudy's back.

The detail is deliberately not depicted, as it does not fit the dramatic impression that is taking place at the moment.

Resume...

After Rudy made it out of the ice storm, what he saw right now was a stretch of desert that seemed to have no end!

Rudy who saw this no longer had time to think because he felt worried about Inara's condition. Then he just continued his flight and crossed the desert to find a place that can be used for camping.

But somehow from the moment when breaking through the frozen area Rudy could not fly as fast as usual. He felt that the air on the other side of this world was very different from that in the central world. But unfortunately Rudy clearly did not have time to think about it. He only thought of immediately finding a temporary shelter and then taking care of Inara.

Rudy continued to fly for 6 hours without ever stopping until he saw a sizable oasis.

Rudy went down to the outskirts of the oasis so that they were not visible to the residents there. He looked for a fairly shady tree and set up the tent they had prepared there. After the tent stood Rudy immediately spread the pedestal and lay Inara on it.

Anxious Rudy took off all the clothes Inara was wearing because the clothes were still damp from the previous ice storm, even though they had half a day flying through this hot desert, but the clothes of the two of them had not dried up.

Well, this clearly signified how dangerous the ice storm they had passed before was!

Resume...

After removing all Inara's clothes, Rudy wiped Inara's wet and cold body.

After wiping Inara's body dry, Rudy wrapped Inara with 3 layers of thick blankets, and after finishing all that, he stood guard next to Inara.

Rudy also did not forget to install a psychic shield that covered the entire area 500 meters from the tent where they were.

Without feeling the time pass. The sun was currently starting to set so this caused the space inside the tent to become slightly dark.

But Rudy deliberately did not light any fire or light so that they would not attract attention from the surrounding area.

Seriate...
