CHAPTRE 16
The Valuable Thing
A roar resounded over Indi. Some naturae children seem to be aware of the creature's presence, and freeze in horror. Indi threw a look of disbelief at Liona.
“That roar, I remember it. How's it possible?"
Liona seemed to know what Indi was thinking. During their journey, it was the creature that became their “vehicle”, a gift from the fairies. Mythological creatures that almost always exist in every mythology of countries in the world. A dragon.
A dragon, which carries Indi across islands and continents. The creature flew over the hole created. Each flap of his wings is able to produce wind that scatters Indi hair.
“Vega!” pekik Indi's.
“Release Indi!” liona shouted at Vega.
Indi did not understand how the creature could get to the UCI. As he remembered, Vega left him on a hill in the city where he lived. Vega flew down towards Indi.
His black wings were like the wings of a raven, which were compatible with his skin. Vega is now close to Indi. Today, India is almost completely turned to stone. Vega stuffed her tail into the hole, then wrapped it around one of Indi's arms.
“Don't say?\-“
Vega then returned to fly soaring, which made Indi free from the curse of the stone. Liona swiftly pointed her hands at the doll that was also lifted up, then spewed out a blaze that was so hot. Smoke was left behind from the doll that now separated the hands, which still gripped both legs of Indi.
“The perfect fire of Liona!” praise Indi, who is still hovering a few meters above the ground, “But, can you tell Vega to drop me off immediately? My hands are starting to feel tingling.” Complain Indi.
Hearing that made Liona chuckle. He blew the silver whistle. This time with a long sound. Vega then, putting Indi on his back, took Liona from inside the hole, and also placed her on his back.
“How come Vega's on you? And actually what whistle did you use earlier?” ask Indi, who seems to have forgotten that a little more he will become like a fairy tale in his country.
“I'll explain later. Right now there's something you need to finish. Vega will take you to Fanny, don't forget to bring Catherine along\-with you,” explains Liona.
“How about you?”
“I have to help your mother and the others.” Liona said, her look serious.
Seeing that made Indi nod, “Please take care of my Mama, I don't want to lose her, anymore,” Indi said a little gloomily.
Liona smiled, “Trust me,” Liona smiled, then jumped down from above Vega. He blew his whistle, and Vega started flapping his wings. From above, Indi could see Liona running towards her mother.

From a height, the UCI looked like part of a war zone. Indi manages to pick up Catherine, not more precisely allowing Vega who seems to have been tuned to fly automatically to pick up Catherine, who is hiding behind the ruins. He seems to be an expert in disguise. The first time I saw him, Indi thought he was dead.
Vega flies at high altitudes, which seem hard to reach by human sight. Even so, out of nowhere, Indi can see the commotion that is happening below them. In front of the building\-house dormitory, the child\-child spiritus seemed to have been defeated decisively. In a labyrinth park close to the lake, several ventroquist puppets beat out several masked men. Some UCI children fought swords with one of the mask users, right in the plantation area.
Seeing all those things clearly hurt her heart. He can feel the emotions of everyone he sees. Sadness, anger, and regret. Vega took them flying rapidly towards the gunug. Indi clearly did not understand the direction Vega was heading. During his time in UCI, Indi never set foot in the mountain area surrounding the UCI plain. He never even knew what was there.
The closer to the mountain, the more Indi felt such a dark aura. In the distance he saw hundreds of ghosts who had been in the UCI, seemed to swarm at the foot of the mountain. Seeing hundreds of ghosts gave him goosebumps. He could not imagine what would happen if they were to enter his body. The next instant Vega swooped down rapidly towards the foot of the mountain.
“What happened?” indi panicked.
“Indi, we have to jump!” exclaim Catherine.
“Are you crazy?” sahut Indi's.
“That\-ghost is a trap for us! We will not be able to defeat this creature when it is possessed by hundreds of ghosts!”
“What?” yelled Indi did not understand.
“There is no time to explain it in theory! In the count of three we will jump, one\- three!”
