Isekai: New Adventure In The Fantasy World
80. Apology And Destiny The Hero

Zuka breathed a sigh of relief. "We're safe now...."

"Yes.. We better gather some energy first." Connect Hali.

Others nodded too. But when they turn around, immediately the feathers on their feet make them freeze in place.

In front of them, human bones were scattered on the floor of the house. The net of profit is seen attached to the walls and roofs of the roofs of houses with a terrible black-red profit.

A cold wind blew and several times the bats flew in search of a dark place that was comfortable for them to sleep. In addition to the flash of lightning that struck added a horror impression on the place.

Really, this isn't a haunted house, is it?

"We... Go on yuk..." Take Zion who was afraid of ghosts from the beginning.

"Don't ngaco. Gonna get caught? They're outside.. It's raining rain too." Said Rio who casually removed the human skull from the top of the sofa and laid his body there.

Was he not afraid of all those bones?

The rain continued until nightfall. Strong winds blew and the rumbling of lightning and lightning struck made the atmosphere of the night even more sinister.

Zion looked around. Hali and Zuka had fallen asleep. They seem to be exhausted. But he was still astonished, how could they sleep in such a creepy place like this?

Zion then turned her gaze at Rio who woke up and walked closer to the window. His face looked so anxious and agitated. What did the young man really think?

Zion decided to approach him. He looked out the window showing the atmosphere of the night in the pouring rain. For some reason seeing the speck of rain and smelling the distinctive aroma of the land exposed to rain made her calm.

"What are you thinking?" Zion's question made Rio startled and reflexively turned his head.

"Ah you... Don't surprise me that.. What if I hang?"

"I'm replacing it with a werewolf heart."

"You want me to be a werewolf?"

"Not so." Zion sighed. He switched the conversation on the previous topic. " Are you in trouble?"

Rio's speechless. He hesitated to talk about it. Especially to someone he just knew.

"You don't want to tell me it's not a problem either." Said Zion again. He opened the window that made the wind blow through his black hair. The strands of white hair that were between the black hair looked shiny as it was blown by the wind. Plus the ruby bead that looks so beautiful makes the person who sees it fascinated.

Unknowingly, a single smile was engraved on Rio's lips. He had just realized the beauty of the young man near him. Given all his treatment of the boy, he felt guilty.

"Actually I miss my twin. I'm worried about his condition. Where is he now and is he okay?" Rio said slowly.

Zion turned. He looked at Rio's face which still looked worried. At first he thought the young man would not tell him. "So you have a twin.. I thought it was an ordinary brother."

"Yes. Ren is my twin. I'm five minutes older than him. But his attitude is exactly like my brother's. Yep... That's absolutely true... Seeing how careless I am. If only I were more careful... Maybe we won't be apart..."

"It's not your fault. I mean, don't blame yourself like that. If Ren knew about it, he would be angry later. He did it to save you. She loves you. So don't mistake yourself for continuing." Zion paused her speech. He recalled the time when he and Zuka were separated first. "After all... It's not gonna be over with just you blaming yourself." Further.

"This has to do with your parting with Zuka?"

Zion nodded. The incident was still clearly imprinted in his memory. How Zuka was pulled in and he couldn't save her. But regret alone means nothing. He must stay strong and try to save her. And for now, keep and protect her.

Zion looked at the white hair of the young man who was asleep. His face looked calm and sweet although still a bit pale. Although he has helped heal wounds on his body, but his condition is still not exactly good.

"If we were siblings..." How Zion was unconscious. Ever since Zuka and Avren considered her like family, she really felt she had a new family in her current world. If they were siblings, it would be better, right?

"You didn't have a brother in a life before him?"

Zion who was shocked reflexively turned her head. How far does Rio know about her actually?

"I hope so."

Hearing the ruby young man's short answer, it somehow made Rio awkward. Was he talking wrong?

"I'm sorry for my attitude towards you since I first met." Rio. I think it's the right time to apologize.

Zion shook her head a little. "No problem, I've forgiven you." Zion sighed. He looked at Rio's slightly reddened face. And from his gaze, it seemed like he was indeed sincere about it.

"Can I ask you one thing? The question I always wanted to ask."

"About the reason I call you a hero?" Rio Cut. Zion simply nodded in return. At least for now, the question will be answered.

"Everyone, reincarnating must have a reason, right? Did you meet a god or something after your death?" Rio asked ascertained.

Zion shakes. "It's just a white place and a hologram screen."

"Is there anything written there?"

"There was. 'Is there a question you still haven't answered, or a regret?' I remember that and I said yes. The reason is, I want to know who pushed me when I wanted to cross. Yep... The man who got me killed got hit by a truck back then." Obviously Zion.

"And after that you met the dragon. And now it becomes an experiment of the Inimicus race and wants to destroy it. You still haven't realized?" Ask Rio. Zion was even more confused by all those questions.

"Can you please explain?"

"In our kingdom, there was a seer who said, when the world will face destruction and fall in the hands of a cruel ruler, a hero who comes from the outside world will defeat that ruler and become the savior of the world. And from what I saw and happened to you, it seems like the prophecy was directed at you."

After hearing her, it seemed to make sense that she was reincarnated into this world. Even more so with such great magic power. But is he capable of such a big responsibility?

"I.. It's unexpected" Really, Zion doesn't know what else to say now. He knew he had that much responsibility. But why should he be himself? "I'm afraid if I fail."

Rio patted Zion on the shoulder and smiled gently. " I'll help you. Besides, you're not alone, are you? They, the people who love you and are always there to support you are also not there? Plus, the student you trained."

Zion smiled faintly. What Rio said was indeed true. It's not alone. His friends and relatives are always there for him. After all, he could not let his friends and family continue to be in danger, right?

"I'll protect everyone."

Rio smiling. "Good! Now let's go to bed. We need to prepare ourselves for tomorrow. There's someone waiting outside anyway, we have to kill them, right?"

Zion nodded. A little rest doesn't seem to matter. " Well..."

Chirp

But Zion's steps stopped as a bat flew right before her face. Almost even about her. It was also then that the ruby-mannered young man held his breath.

He put his eyes around. Again he breathed. Can he sleep in a place like this?

"Quick morning...." For whatever sake, Zion doesn't want to linger here.

With a heavy heart, Zion laid herself on the sofa after getting rid of the bone and skull bones there.

"I know someone committed suicide there... And his spirit has not calmed down. Probably sleeping there too." Rio's speech made Zion's eyes round instantly.

"don't make it!! I know you scared me on purpose, right??"

Rio only chuckled faintly hearing Zion's scolding. Tutoring the boy turned out to be exciting as well.

Zion let out a rough breath. He's really upset. However, suddenly he thought of the Hero Class and Beast disciple. How's their training going?
