Meet And Fall in Love
159 - Research Into the Bamboo Forest.

Raisa and Ian both rushed to Devan~

"Hurry and find Devan's location! You guys know that too, right? Devan's in danger!" raisa's message is sent through voice transmission magic on Morgan and Rumi.

With Raisa, Ian is easier to find Devan's whereabouts.

When encountered, Devan was preparing in a standby position to guard himself from the attack of dark spirits.

"Devan, are you okay?" ask Raisa

"At least it still is" Devan replied

"How can the spirit of darkness attack you?" ask Ian

"Don't ask me, neither do I know! They always appear mysteriously! I've tried to deal with them, but my wind element magic doesn't work, what's more shadow control magic" Devan said

"This is just my guess. Looks like they can find you because they can sense the magic ability in you, Devan. You can control the shadow which means darkness" Raisa said

"Curtain! It's troublesome" Devan and Ian said in unison.

Unmitigated, the one that came attacking Devan numbered three dark spirits at once!

The three spirits attacked recklessly wanting to destroy everything.

Raisa also moves forward~

His hand was stretched out to block the attack and from both of his hands came a dazzling beam of bright magic light. The light emitted was also able to make the three spirits silent without twitching.

From the light that Raisa emits makes it easier and faster for Morgan and Rumi to find their location~

"You guys okay?" ask Rumi

Ian nodded small.

"There are three dark spots!" screeches Morgan

"But they look calmer" Morgan continued

"You just don't know what they've done and Raisa has calmed them down" Ian said

"It's not over yet! Fortunately, there is a small river nearby" Raisa said

Raisa also controls the water from the river with her magic. Enveloped the three dark spirits before him until it turned into a transparent spirit and instantly disappeared just like that~

"Here is done, but we still have to continue the patrol. Thank you for your help, Raisa! Good thing you came quickly" said Devan

"Yes, equally. Come on, we continue to patrol again," said Raisa

They also continued to go around to make sure the Bamboo Village was safe from the attacks of spirits or monsters.

After driving around and making sure everything was safe, the five of them stopped somewhere in Bamboo Village. That place is the middle point of the village.

"To be more vigilant ... is there anyone who can help me establish a protector? Morgan?" raisa asked.

"Protectors for the whole village? Is that true?! Although this is only a small isolated village, all the regions here are also large. It seems I won't be able to" said Morgan

Raisa looked at Morgan, then circulated her gaze at the others as well.

Everyone seemed hesitant if they had to establish a protector for the entire village.

"Then let me" said Raisa

"Are you capable, Raisa? If in Daun Village, something like this will be done by a special force," said Ian

"I'll try it" said Raisa

Raisa crouched down and stretched out both her hands to touch the ground. Above the ground appeared an enormous White Lotus Flower emblem! The emblem shines~

Slowly, Raisa stood up while stretching out her hands. Lastly, Raisa put together and clasped her hands together on her head. When the movement ended, a protective wall had stood around and sealed off the rumors of being protected from attacks coming from the bamboo forest as the outermost part of the village.

A sweat splashed on Raisa's face after expending a lot of energy to use high-level magic. Raisa's face immediately turned pale, even she coughed and bled out blood.

Raisa wiped the blood out of her mouth while sighing in relief~

"If you want to try, then it might be possible to break through an unexpected level of ability. I always make it a race in every exercise, so I can be like now" said Raisa

"But now you look bad! At least you can ask for our help to share the magic power with you. You push yourself too much until you drain a lot of your energy" Rumi said

"Of that, we'll just go back to the orphanage. Let Raisa rest right away. You've been working hard, Raisa," said Devan

Rumi approached and immediately carried (ala bride style) Raisa into his arms.

"It doesn't need to be like this, Rumi. I'm just a little weak, but it's gonna get better on its own. So just put me down" said Raisa

"However, for that you must rest. I'll quickly take you back to the orphanage. Come on, let's go back, " said Rumi

Rumi walked first quickly back to the orphanage. Followed the others behind him.

"It's enough, we've arrived. You can put me down! It's not good if there are children watching" Raisa said upon arriving at the orphanage.

"That's not good, keep pushing yourself until you become exhausted like you "elak Rumi

What Raisa is worried about, is happening! Aqila and Chilla were with some children outside to welcome their return and saw clearly Rumi was holding Raisa.

"The brothers are back!"

"What's wrong with Raisa?" ask Aqila

"He ran out of steam after building a protective wall for the whole village" Morgan replied

"In that case, quickly bring Raisa to rest inside! We just finished preparing the bed for bed" Chilla said

"Can you show me the room? I'll take Raisa there," Pinta Rumi

"Follow me, I'll show you the room" Aqila said

They also enter.

Rumi led Raisa straight to the room to rest with Aqila who showed her the way.

Once inside the room, Rumi immediately laid Raisa on the prepared mattress appointed by Aqila.

The room is a special joint room for all girls in the orphanage. There are many bunk beds that fill the room, Raisa lying on one of the lower levels of the bed in the room.

"We all have to share a bed because it's a combined room" Chilla said

"I'm sorry we. In the home, there are no empty rooms. This is all we can prepare" said the mother of the nanny, Mrs Wita.

"It's okay" said Raisa

"Thank you for bringing me here, Rumi. But, you still have to watch the night to make sure the protectors I made last at least until morning," Raisa continued

"I understand. I'll discuss this with the others. You can just calm down and rest" Rumi said

"You should let me know immediately and wake me up as soon as the protector has a problem! Then, it looks like you have to go outside because even though this is a children's room, it's still a girls' room" Raisa said

"I understand. I'll ask you to make some food. I went outside first" Rumi said

"In that case, I will immediately prepare the food. Please rest. Excuse me," said Mrs Wita

"We'll help Mrs Wita prepare the food. We stay, yes, Raisa. Come on, Chilla," said Aqila

Chilla nodded as well.

Rumi passed out of the room and was followed by the nanny's mother and Aqila and Chilla who were about to prepare food.

While the others were busy outside, Raisa alone was inside a room filled with bunk beds. Since everyone told her to rest, Raisa also started to close her eyes.

After a while, someone woke Raisa from her sleep. He shook slowly Raisa's body while muttering to her name.

"Raisa, wake! You still have to eat," he said

Raisa opened her eyes and blinked occasionally. He saw Aqila carrying a tray of food dishes.

"Oh, you ... Aqila!" conscious of Raisa, then rose from her sleep and changed her position to sit leaning.

"Sorry, I woke you up. You have to eat to recharge your energy. Rumi made it clear to me that you have to eat and I have to watch you finish your meal" Aqila said

"Yes, it's okay. I understand you're worried about me" said Raisa

Raisa receives a tray of food for her from Aqila's hand and starts eating it slowly.

"I'll wait here to make sure you eat until you're done. That's Rumi's message, "Aqila said

"Yes, okay. You said that too," said Raisa while chuckling.

Aqila sat on the edge of the bed in front of Raisa.

"Oh, yes! What about your condition, Aqila? Is it better?" ask Raisa

"Yes, thanks to you. Now it's just recovery, but it's much better. You need to worry about your own condition" Aqila replied

One of Raisa's hands was stretched out to grasp Aqila's hand to check her condition with medical magic. Raisa felt Aqila's body in an excellent recovery period.

"That's great! Don't worry, it will get better on its own. After this night has passed it will also recover, so can you tell this to the others when you go outside later? 'Don't forbid I do what I have to do tomorrow!'. Make sure they hear it and understand it" Raisa said

"Yes. You are indeed the most powerful and powerful of us all," Aqila said

"That's overkill. I'm not great, I just have something to protect. Sometimes the strongest is the weakest. It's all just a matter of time controlling it" Raisa said

Raisa smiled and Aqila fell silent. Aqila was trying to understand Raisa's words. It seems to understand, but it is also difficult to understand.

The two fell silent until Raisa finished her meal. Raisa also gulped water in a glass until it ran out as the end of her eating session.

"Yes, you can get back to rest. I won't bother you anymore" said Aqila

Aqila also took back the cutlery that Raisa used to eat as well as the tray. Aqila went outside, leaving Raisa who returned to lay down her body to continue resting and sleeping.

"Did Raisa eat?" asked Rumi who saw Aqila out of the room.

"Yes, he spent it all. He also said something and wanted me to convey it to you, "Aqila replied

"What did Raisa say?" ask Chilla

"Say, don't forbid me to do what I have to do tomorrow" Aqila said

"It's definitely about an investigation into the forest tomorrow" Ian said

"He must insist on leaving tomorrow. It's a stubborn girl" said Morgan

"You are the same. It's a bother" Devan said

•••

Next day.

Because it was early to rest at night, Raisa also woke up early in the morning. Together with the caretakers of the orphanage, Raisa prepares the needs for the entire orphanage in the morning.

"It was morning, yes .." muttered Chilla who woke up from her sleep.

"Raisa, are you awake?" aqila asked as she opened her eyes.

"Yes, I want to wake the kids. You two get ready before I wake the kids here" Raisa replied.

Aqila and Chilla got up and started their preparations in the morning.

Raisa smiled and started waking up the children of the orphanage.

"It's morning, kids! Come on, get up, everybody!" cry Raisa

Since it was common for caregivers to wake up, all the children woke up and opened their eyes when Raisa woke them all up.

"Wasn't that brother who came home with a handsome brother last night? Isn't the pretty sister hurt?"

"Yes, sister's name, Raisa. You guys must remember! Last night brother was just exhausted, but now it's okay."

"We shouldn't have let beautiful sister wake up earlier today."

"Well, why?"

"So Raisa should just take a break and do not push yourself today. The other brothers say so ...."

"How, yav. today there is important business that you have to do with others. You don't have to worry about this. Just get up and start getting ready before eating together."

The children obeyed Raisa and began to prepare.

"It really can't prevent Raisa today. Turns out, he woke up earlier than the rest of us this morning."

"Are you talking about me? Didn't I tell Aqila last night? Don't ban me! What to do, then to do! And I will still go," said Raisa who appeared and left again just like that.

...

After breakfast together, they prepared to investigate the bamboo forest.

"Today's investigation we need to split three teams! One team of two stays here to protect the orphanage. Who are those two?" raisa asked.

"Wouldn't it be better for you to stay here, Raisa?" ask Chilla

"No way, I have to take part in the investigation into the forest" Raisa replied

"I was forced to say this, indeed only Raisa can overcome the spirit problem, so she must come along" said Devan

"Can't his investigation be delayed another day?" ask Morgan

"We are assigned here to end the attacks of the spirits and monsters, so we must complete this mission quickly and must not delay any more time" Raisa replied

"This time I want to come! Tell you what, Chilla and Ian stay here protecting the orphanage. Agreed, no?" aqila asked.

"I'm, after all, just follow you guys," said Chilla

"All right, what can I do?! I'll stay here with Chilla" Ian resigned

"Just like that! You two stay here and the others go together into the forest" Raisa said

"You guys be careful!" ian's Message

"Hurry back, yes .." said Chilla

After establishing, Ian and Chilla will remain in the orphanage to protect all who are there.

Aqila, Morgan, Devan, Rumi, and Raisa leave the orphanage to investigate the bamboo forest.

As soon as they saw the forest entrance, the five of them went through the barrier wall Raisa had built to protect the entire village. The protector is only made so that spirits and monsters from outside the village or forest do not enter the village settlement, but people can pass through it freely and easily.

As they were about to enter the forest, the five of them paused for a moment...

"What else is it?" ask Morgan

"We have to split the team again. Two people stay on guard outside here, if you see any spirits or monsters that come out of the forest immediately help secure the village. The other three entered the forest. Who are the two people who came with me into the forest and the other two who stood guard outside the forest?" raisa asked.

"I will go into the forest" replied Aqila

"I will also enter with you and Aqila" said Rumi

"So, this is what you mean to split three teams... All right, me and Morgan are gonna wait and stay here" Devan said

"Why should I be out here?" ask Morgan

"Since you're a messy person, you better stay here! Then, Raisa said last night .. The reason the spirits attacked me last night is likely that they could feel magic abilities on me that could control shadows that meant darkness. So, it might be risky if I go into the woods. So, you and I are going to stay here" Devan explained

"All roles are equally important in the mission, so please understand, Morgan" Raisa said

"All right, it's up to you" resigned Morgan

"Then we will enter! No matter what happens, we will finish it inside. So, don't worry, just wait in the morning and don't come with us into the forest" Raisa said

After putting Devan and Morgan outside the forest just in case. Only Aqila, Rumi, and Raisa are left to enter the forest.

With a map made by Mr. Derril depicting the entire forest he had explored with the villagers, Aqila, Rumi, and Raisa also began to investigate into the bamboo forest.

Some points in the forest have been marked on the map. All three entered the forest according to the path that Mr. Derril and other residents had taken.

"Stay alert and pay attention to the surrounding conditions" Raisa's message during the trip.

There is a large red dot that indicates the place when the invader of the dark spirit occurs. However, not until half way to that point the air in the forest already feels strange even though it is still morning.

"Near here is a fire sign. He said, there was an eternal flame in this forest. Mr. Derril once rested around this place to multiply torches before continuing his journey into the interior of the forest," said Aqila who held the map.

"We may be close to that place" Rumi said

"Replace the journey!" resolutely Raisa

The three of them continued their journey. During the journey there are obstacles that must be overcome. Such as steep ground, large stone mounds, large tree trunks that block the road or suction soil~

With the struggle together, the three are able to pass through all the obstacles encountered and continue on their way. Not long ago continuing after resting due to the obstructing obstacles, this time they were already very close to the point of eternal flame listed on the map, and might even already be around the region. But again, something is blocking them!

Several dark spirits and terrifying mysterious monsters blocked their threesome~

They stopped and started to stand by.

The three noticed the sharp and terrifying gazes of the spirits and monsters!

"Stay calm and do not be afraid! Otherwise, you will be affected and fall into the trap of darkness . "slow Raisa.

"MAN! How dare you enter into our peaceful territory! What are you guys here for?! Never make a fuss and damage within our sacred forest again! Get out of here!! As long as we commemorate you!!!"

"Can they talk?" astonished Aqila asked.

"Not them! I feel another figure that is not visible here" Raisa said

Raisa went back to being normal and took a little step forward.

"Raisa, what are you going there for?" ask Rumi, worried.

"All we want is peace. Make peace with us, holy forest dwellers" said Raisa

"SLOW! You can speak so boldly after what you have done in our sacred forest!!"

"What does that mean?"

"Wait for what else?!! ATTACK!!!"

The spirits and monsters quickly attacked Aqila, Rumi, and, Raisa~

"NO!! Wait up!"

The monsters and spirits did not want to listen or be spoken to. They go ahead and attack. Fighting is inevitable~

Aqila, Rumi, and Raisa also fight and defend against the spirits and monsters with all their might and as much as they can.
