Love And Adventure's
Unexpected

"sorry Miss. I can only drive here." said the driver.

"it's okay, sir. This is the cost." replied Aria.

Aria walks into an alley leading to a landfill.

The landfills, the city of Agantha are not dirty. There was no rubbish around. All the trash had been sorted out well by the officers. All the garbage that came, collected in one place located at the very back.

Food vendors are also here. They sold their wares in a small shop, to be sold to the workers. Even if they sell food near the trash, people who stop by to eat there are always there.

"what's the matter, Miss?" ask someone.

The man was sitting at the stall table, in the shade of a tree. He was an old man, when viewed from the wrinkle on his face. The man, along with his two friends, was enjoying the cup of coffee they bought, from the stall next to him.

He may be curious. Seeing a girl in fancy clothes visiting a place like this. Only that girl was dressed differently to the people who were pacing around in this place.

"water ditch holes, where is it sir?" the answer.

The old man's friend whispered. He seemed to know, the reason why the girl wanted to go to the water ditch.

"want to find a slime monster, Miss?" answer him.

Aria nodded. It was better to ask permission first before searching for the monster. He was afraid he would be suspected of doing something. Must be suspicious, there's a girl pacing the sewers.

"right sir. To complete the quest."

The three of them understood. The word "ouh." until it is seen in their mouths, though it is not heard.

"just be straight, Miss. There are many sewer holes that lead to culverts" he said.

Aria understands. The old man pointed towards the front, so Aria just walked straight following the direction of the road that was already in concrete. Perhaps the location of the slime monsters gathered, was at the place he pointed.

From earlier. A brown slime monster was visible, as far as Aria looked. Despite the large number of workers around them, the slimes did not show that they were dangerous.

"thank you, father. I have permission to leave." said Aria.

He answered his thanks, then the girl left, to the place she had been shown.

"i'll remember what you wanted, Fredo. You used to want to be an adventurer, didn't you?" said grandpa Edr.

"when we were young, who would not be curious about the name adventurer?" added grandpa Syip.

"well right. But everything has changed." said Fredo's grandfather.

The three of them are nostalgic for the past. When we were young, before technology like this was invented, everyone wanted to be adventurous. Travel far to find new things and make money.

Since the technology was introduced. Everything becomes easier. Everyone no longer needed to work, being an adventurer to make money. In the adventurous life, there are sometimes situations, where doing such heinous things is required.

"i'm confused too. Why there are still young people today who become adventurers, when the risk is very large" said grandmother Iyta.

Iyta's grandmother took out her uncles, after hearing the conversations of her loyal buyers. She's confused. Dangerous work such as adventure is still in demand, although there have been many news about death, from people who become adventurers.

...****************...

Not far from Aria's sight. There was a pile of trash that looked to be high up. A lot of people carry a sack. They take out recyclable trash for sale.

Brown slime monsters were also all around them. The slime-slime ate the trash that looked dirty and then spewed it out again. Rubbish that can rot is what they digest.

"where the hell is it, the gutter hole?" inner Aria.

He's ashamed, if seen by the people here. A lot of people looked at her, apparently because of the clothes Aria was wearing, different from those around her.

Due to confusion with the location of the culvert hole. Aria saw that there was another path that could lead to that place. There is a ladder that leads down. There are culverts with clear water flowing.

The condition of the culvert is dark, but not so stuffy. It was only cold with the sound of water gurgling that was flowing. Aria uses a flashlight that she carries in a small box bag, which is behind her hips.

The bag looks small, but the capacity of the container exceeds what is seen. The bag included one of the accessories Irene brought while on an adventure, in addition to a gray twilight hair ribbon, which could make her hair change color.

"what to collect?" aria. He forget.

Aria took the quest documents to see the request from her quest, what slime monster her slime would take. Many slime monsters are highlighted flashlight, with a variety of colors.

The way to take slime slime is fairly easy. Wear a dull object, then just hit them. It can be destroyed or not. Most importantly, the round part in the middle of their bodies was destroyed.

Slime which has been destroyed the middle core, will be a lump of jelly. These jellies will be taken to be converted into other products. Each slime that has a different color, has a different use, if made into a product.

"slime is green, only brown slime should I take the mucus. It must be the person who requested this quest is making medicine for the skin." Aria murmured.

Slippery slime from green slime monsters, mostly processed into topical drugs and vehicle engine lubricants. Their slippery mucus, obtained from absorbing green moss, which is shaped like a person's snot, which is around the walls of the culvert.

Jellies from brown slime can be used for itching. Brown slime is still a kind of yellow slime, but because it absorbs too much dirt, making their jelly color becomes more brown. There are active substances that can be used to clean something dirty and skin infections caused by fungi.

"hopefully nothing will happen" said Aria.

Armed flashlight. Aria went down these culverts. Luckily, it is not raining right now. Rain can make the water in the culverts become overflowing and flooded.

...****************...

Sometimes Aria/Irene is curious. Things like this where his parents can get them. His mother has a storage warehouse of accessories that have special abilities.

Irene just picked up a white hairband and a waist bag. Her mother said the hair tie, named twilight gray silk, could change the color of the hair of someone wearing it in disguise.

That waist bag, it doesn't seem to have a name. Irene's mother simply said, that this bag could hold more items than it looks from its shape. The shape is small, but the inside is very broad.

"why is this slime monster only around here?" said Aria.

The culverts of Aganta city, have many branch lines. The government makes large culverts and has many branches, for the installation of electrical cables. The installation was intended that the cables would not accumulate on the city ceiling.

According to Aria's premonition, there was a strange place where the sewers were empty of slime monsters. As far as he knows, all the places that have a lot of slime food, there will certainly be a lot of them, let alone slime is a colony monster. They will not be far from the crowd of their species.

Buk~ Brak~

(sound something loud)

A mysterious voice sounded. Aria was sure, if the sound was like the sound of a loud wall impact. But what is it? Why does it make such a sound? Even in places that are rarely touched by others.

Bum~

(heard an explosion)

Aria was getting curious. What the hell is going on? When he is flashlighting towards the water flow. A black slime that has been destroyed, flowing carried by the flow of water culverts. Shock again, the black slime blob had eyes that were still twitching.

"just go back. The quest has also been completed." said Aria.

When he turns around and leaves. There was a small knife that was carried away by the water currents. The small knife that was not too long was washed away, but not just one, but many. About ten knives that Aria saw.

Ting~ Bum~ Bruak~

(the mysterious voice is still heard)

Feeling a sense of isolation, Aria ran to the source of the voice. He felt that someone was in need of his help. If not, he just answered, that he was just passing by, to look for slime slime.

"uh yeah. This curiosity is very disturbing." said Aria.

He ran to the source of the sound. His feeling said, if the voice came from the passage of the culverts that were in front of him. Not forgetting, Aria turned the necklace around her neck into a scythe just in case.

Buk~

(the voice of Aria's head was eating something)

Jidatnya is very sick. Aria was like hitting someone else's forehead, and sure enough. There was a girl who fell in front of him. She wears ancient clothes, women in ancient times. Long sleeved shirt is blue, with a long skirt in purple.

"astaga. Something like this again." complained Aria, rubbing her forehead.

Last night, he hit a little boy, and now, he's bumping into a girl who looks his age.

"uh. Who the hell is this?" the girl complained too.

If Aria ran while flashlighting the road in front of her. There was no way he would experience something like this. He was too busy clutching his weapon, forgetting to use his flashlight.

"what are you doing here?" ask Aria.

"continues. What are you doing?" askalanya.

From the sewer water. There could be someone carrying a dagger, appearing from there. He jumped from the water and attacked Aria and the girl.

Fortunately. Aria with her scythe can throw it, until it hits the wall, then falls into the water. A piece of hand, seen being thrown in the air.

"what do you mean? Huh!" aria.

The man stood up casually. It was as if the hard impact he had just experienced, had no impact whatsoever, even though his right hand had been severed, and was covered in blood.

"come again a bully" he said.

He confirmed his wet hair with his left hand, as it covered both of his eyes. Highlight his eyes slightly glowed red, as the man looked towards Aria, then the light, disappeared slowly.

Aria remembered. That person's gaze was like the gazes of the people he saw in Roanes city. But this man, his eyes were glowing red, not green.

"i need help. Location I'll send." said the girl Aria met.

He spoke with an object, which he took from a small bag on his thigh. A tool that can communicate with people from a distance.

"the eyes glow red. What the hell is he?" lamented Aria.

The girl that Aria met, turned towards her, after she heard the words red eyes. His expression was like disbelief, of the things he had heard.

"wait. You're a player too?" said it.
