ORION
The Wanted One
“Know to you both, that it was widespread even before the arrival of the person you were looking for,” said Mr. Lunar Eclipse.
What he said, might be true. Orion was hesitant about the words of strangers, but Mahanta's statement about the spread of objects even to the teenager made it a proof. Because there is no way it was Chameleon himself while Chameleon had not long set foot in this country.
“So. Then, what was your purpose that made me come here. Is it because of the gift of my head you just talked about? If yes, then you are wrong. I don't have a gift. I'm not diburon.” Orion shook his head.
“True. I've been looking all the way here and there. The result is blank, although there is some information covered because you are from another country,” he said with a smile.
“Clearly only. I'm not the person you're looking for right now. Then, are you going to keep killing me. At Saint's request for help named Mr Ken?” ask Orion.
“Can be said so. But before meeting the incriminating topic, I want to show you one thing.”
Mr. Lunar Eclipse then gives a sketch of someone's picture. A man holding a traditional musical instrument, angklung. The image of the man's face is very similar to that of the harpist or the worn photo sent by Mahanta. Very similar, even to the way the man held his instrument.
“Who is this?” Orion asked again after seeing the sketch.
“He is the man I'm looking for. Coming from your country.” The master said as he propped his chin to the front desk. Staring at Orion so seriously, it was clearly visible even though it was still covered by a black mask.
“Then from that you postpone the action you will do to me because you want to ask this?” sindir Orion frowned. He's pissed.
“Can be said so. Because this man is a fugitive of ours. No, even almost the entire population that is here.” The man shook his head several times while massaging his forehead and then smiled wryly.
Orion has not answered anything because he is reluctant to talk about a known harp player. But upon hearing that the man in the picture was their fugitive, Orion was inexhaustible.
“She is not a native of the population here?”
“Certainly not.” Again the man shook his head.
Not everyone knows the lute player, who is also Chameleon's former colleague. Their relationship is no longer connected, as he betrays himself once he knows the Chameleon era is coming to an end. Therefore also the lute player meets Orion, on purpose.
Although from Orion's point of view, they met because there was no intentional. But the actual harp player is the one who lurks the movement of Orion secretly. Even without Orion himself knowing, the lute player intends to use Orion and Chameleon for some reason.
This fact is completely unknown to Orion or all NED Fighters. Not even Ender.
And now, another fact that so surprised Orion. That the harp player was being hunted by another country?
“Truth I really can't believe.”
The drap! The drap!
A few masked people entered the room all of a sudden. And they all seemed to be besieging Orion and Endaru right now. Then Enderu was prepared if at any time he had to use his power.
“What the fuck is this?” Ender is clearly angry. Welcomed as a guest and suddenly treated like a criminal.
“We will not be violent if you answer our questions. And judging from your reaction, surely you know something about this man pictured,”, said Mr. Lunar Eclipse poses a threat.
It's a trap. Endaru had already told Orion before, but Orion who knew that also followed the rules of this man's game. Wanting to be herded anywhere, Orion would go trailing because he felt it was the most appropriate action.
“I can't answer to the man who's going to kill me. Besides, why are you after this guy?” ask Orion while pointing at the picture.
“If I told you, would you answer who you were looking for. Even to the point of scaring Saint Ken at you because of that person and asking for my help.” The man replied to Orion's words so easily.
Orion cleared his throat, thinking for a moment while looking at the masked man.
“Unfortunately I cannot say. Because he is not a person in this country, so I became troubled. Moreover, he is also an NED fighter who has the power of a god,” said Orion.
“You mean he's Saint?”
“Iya. That's what you call it, huh?”
Some days the situation becomes quiet. A drop of sweat fell, he swallowed his saliva as soon as he got the cold air pressure.
The exit is closed, both the door and the window. There was no way for Orion and Endaru to escape right now. Bad luck like this, obviously Orion guessed it would happen sooner or later.
Then now, as soon as the bad problem returned, Orion had already prepared himself.
“That Ken, he could have betrayed me like this. Yeah, but I'm usually treated like this. But when will this continue?” the honest inner Orion was very upset, yet he restrained himself by simply clenching both hands in his pants pocket.
“Orion, I don't want to be here anymore. They all intend to kill us,” whispered Endaru.
“Do not do anything. Because this person is important,” Orion said.
“What do you mean?” Endaru frowned, he did not understand at all.
“This person is much more powerful than Emblem Priest.” Without a doubt Orion said such a thing directly in front of them in a clear and slightly loud voice while pointing at the Old Lunar Eclipse.
“You're a pretty brave person. But it looks like our conversation will end now,” said the man.
BRACKET!
Orion's back fell down and hit the table hard. Both of his hands were locked by someone's grasp from behind. Suddenly, Orion was shocked. He panicked because he had no time to dwell.
“ORION?!” Endaru shouted, but his movements stopped as he was about to help Orion. For a small knife touched the skin of his neck.
“Ck, what the hell is this? You treated us as guests and then suddenly treated us like this? What do you mean?” endaru's strangler who doesn't receive this kind of treatment. His neck was scratched after he shouted earlier.
“Why? Don't tell me you forgot. Saint Ken's target isn't just this guy but you too,” replied Mr. Lunar Eclipse glanced at Endaru.
“After all I have told you many times. If Saint Ken asks for my help because he feels you are dangerous,”.
Today, it is full of obstacles. Morning, afternoon, evening until night never once they are free of problems. Not to mention, Orion's goal has not been achieved. It even took half a year to search for Chameleon's whereabouts which then lost track of him again.
