Kiarra the Goddess of Death
New Tactics*
They speak the language of the land of Kaa. Translation.
Kenta and Panglima Rat looked at each other sharply showing seriousness. Shelf and Lon who were in the room listened intently.
"I have a deal with the King. If you can handle it, me and my remaining soldiers will be your allies" Commander Rat said, narrowing Kenta's eyes.
In the hall where the Tour troops were warmly entertained by the Zen people.
As soon as the door of the hall was opened, the half-beast humans were made to gawk. They were stunned because the large hall was actually equipped with some eating equipment like a special banquet of a large event. They are welcome to enter and choose the seat according to taste. Beets and others appear to be condescending when food and drinks are served on the table. Before long, the Nega or arguably the doctor came to check the condition of their patients.
"Please make yourself comfortable. Afterwards, rest until we invite for the funeral" said a Zen woman believed to be the butler.
"Cemetery?" ask Kat the feline man with a frown.
The woman with blonde hair smiled. "Yes. Funeral together for your dead comrades and the Zen warriors after the battle. Really, it's a pity to see people die. Many of our families are in mourning. However, that is the cause of a war" the woman replied looking sad, but then smiling kindly.
The long-haired woman then left her guest. The people from the Tour fell silent. They were shocked by the beautiful woman's words. The men simply looked at the large amount of food in front while being treated. For some reason, their appetite just disappeared. Including hatred and the desire to control Zen after their arrival was welcomed by the enemy.
On the other side. As the people of the Tour finally enjoyed the dish from being forced by the host, suddenly, a swarm of people appeared entering the room. The group from Commander Rat was stunned. They look alert when they see a group of people with the royal characteristic of the Yak because they have hair and are dressed in white. The faces of the half-beast humans were tense from the stare back.
"Welcome to Zen. Peaceful greetings. We are from the Yak" said a long white-haired man, bowing with a smile and placing his right palm on his left chest.
"Oh, welcome," replied Cok—human mole rat—gugup accompanied by a slow nod.
The Yak people immediately took a seat at a separate table. The Tur soldiers were nervous and looked at each other as they did not know that another guest from the enemy kingdom would be coming. Before long, there appeared people from Vom where some of them are quite well known, namely the ladies of Kiarra and Dra.
"Welcome to Zen. We are from Vom" Dra introduced himself as he bowed with two hands clasping each other in front of his stomach.
The Tur people nodded slowly again looking awkward as it was politely saluted. Dra and his group sat at a table opposite Yak. The faces of the nine men from the Tour grew increasingly tense as they watched the red-clothed people enter the hall that was none other than the Ark kingdom. They did not expect that the news of Ark being completely overrun by General Kia was true.
Unceasingly they received greetings from other work. The Ark group sat at a table opposite the Tour. The soldiers under the command of Commander Rat stared intently at the enemy group as they looked relaxed in talking and eating the dishes provided. In fact, some of them left the chair and approached the group from another kingdom like talking about something casually. Jealousy arises because they are left out because they cannot blend with the four other kingdoms in one room.
Until finally, the awkwardness that the Tur people faced faded when Commander Rat appeared with Kenta, Rak and Lon. The five camps that filled the hall instantly stared at the arrival of those important people intently. They spontaneously stood as a form of respect. After all, those people had high positions in a kingdom.
Seen three seats like the throne of the royal higher ups on the pulpit. Kenta sat in the middle with Lon and Rak flanking him. Commander Rat is welcome to sit on a special chair accompanied by Zen royal officials. Rat looked nervous when he realized that the great hall was now filled with people from the five kingdoms. To him, this was like a dream since it could see the enemy kingdoms sitting together.
"Thank you for the willingness of our friends from the Tour to join in the banquet that Zen has provided. Sorry, if the dish we serve is less effective," said Kenta who makes the Tour people more hesitant.
"You have treated us with great honor, Mr. Ken-ta," said Commander Rat and were taken in by the people of the Tour. Kenta smile.
Suddenly, it surprised the people of the Tour. However, the representatives of Zen, Vom, Ark, and Yak swiftly stood up while raising their right fists upward.
"We're ready! We're Dragon messengers!" answer the bunch of people in unison.
Rat was stared intently at by Kenta from where he sat. The commander with the half-mouse human figure then stood up slowly.
"I'm Commander Rat! Willing to fight against the King of Tour for true peace in the land of Kaa! I'm the Dragon messenger!" replied the rat man steady.
Everyone's smile grew, except for the 9 soldiers under Rat's leadership. Kenta and the people from other occupations turned their heads towards the Tur soldiers. The group of men with bodies after the beast finally stood up slowly looked ready to provide support. However, there was one person who was silent and remained seated while looking at his face reflected in the golden glass in front. Kenta then stood staring at the raccoon's human figure.
"What's bothering you, brother?" ask Kenta seriously.
The man was stared at by everyone. He sat down and looked back at the people around him.
"Everything you showed me was very convincing to me. Very influencing and causing heart upheaval," he said sounded like innuendo. Kenta looked at the man sharply. "A delicious meal, Nega who is skilled in treating wounds, plus a blue crystal stone where I'm sure the witches banded together to make a show full of deceit. Unfortunately, I stick to the establishment by serving the King of Tour," he added steadily.
The raccoon man then glanced towards his friends. The man was stared sadistically by everyone including his colony. However, Kenta clapped his hands. Suddenly, everyone was stunned and astonished.
"Hem! He is a firm man in his stance. I like people who have a hard heart. However, I'm worried that if you're mistaken, Mr. Ra— sorry, what's his name?" kenta asked looking at Rat with an innocent face.
"Kun," replied the raccoon man steadily.
"Ah. All right, Mr. Kun. I respect your decision. I'll let you go back to Royal Tour after the show. However, considering that the Wwws are still wandering out there guarding the border, I suggest you stay until the red moon shines back," Kenta said calmly.
"Why? You worried I'm dead out there? Or do you want to try to persuade me to ally with you? I'm not interested" he said firmly.
"Why should I offer you the same thing a second time? Didn't you hear my request? I'll only ask you once. So, you've made up your mind and I assume you're not on our side" Kenta replied casually.
The raccoon man squinted. Kenta invited his guests to sit down. The comrades under Rat Command stared at their teammates sharply, but the raccoon man turned his face and chose silence.
"Satisfy your thirst and hunger. Tomorrow we will start a new tactic to conquer the King of Tour" said Kenta who made everyone stunned because the Japanese man was outspoken. "Tell your king to get ready, Kun. Our attack was not kidding," Kenta said.
The raccoon man instantly stopped the movement of his hand that wanted to scoop up the soup. Kun turned his head and looked at Kenta sharply. He nodded in understanding and then returned to scooping the soup.
