Daytime.
“Ari!! Ari!! Where're you!! Ari!!” (Lion)
“Princess, how have you met?” (Lucy)
“Not yet, I can't find it. I'm worried if something happens to her.”
“Where exactly is he now, he makes others worry.”
“We must keep looking for it.”
“Ya.”
Meanwhile.
I slowly opened my eyes, and I found myself in a room with both hands tied. ‘Haa, looks like someone caught me.’ I look around.
“Hmm, this is not good.” I didn't find anything I could use to untie this strong bond. “What caused me to be in this situation.” I try to remember it.
A few minutes later.
The door opened and some people started to come inside.
They began to speak but in a language I did not know. ‘What is this?’ I feel something from them. ‘It's dangerous. I have to find a way to escape immediately.’ Somehow my instincts say there will be danger coming.
They slowly started to approach me. “Hey, what do you want to do?! L-Delease!” They took me out.
There are a lot of people outside who see me. ‘I feel something bad is going to happen to me.’ That's all I can think of right now. Even so I still try to calm down and analyze everything.
A few moments later.
Instantly my calmness disappeared after seeing what was right in front of me. ‘Beheading tools, ‘Guillotine’ why there is this kind of thing in this world!’ I tried to escape but I couldn't. ‘Cih, dead because this is really not epic.’
I look up at the sky. ‘Day, but don't feel hot. Looks like I can't find a way.’ My previous dream was not an ordinary dream, it was the last thing I saw before fainting. If so, it can be ascertained that this place is inside the magic protector.
Thereafter.
My head began to be placed between the Guillotines. ‘Haa, what is just like this my life journey.’ I've found no way to get out of here, even if I can be free I don't know if I can get out of the magic protectors that protect this place or not. “At least, I want to say goodbye first to him.”
“You're desperate?” (??)
“Huh?” Everything stopped immediately, the flow of time seemed not to go this way as Risa had shown me. “Who?!”
“Hee, you evil do not recognize me. I am the one who can help you through obstacles like this.”
“That voice.” A woman's voice, and it's no stranger to me. “Thank you, I was expecting your help.”
“But remember, this is not free.”
“Ya, I understand.”
“Then, close your eyes for a few seconds.”
“Good.” Right now I can only obey his orders. I closed my eyes.
“Hmm, then.. Already, you can open your eyes now.”.
I slowly opened my eyes, and I found myself holding fruit. “It..”.
“I just turned back time, you got caught eating that fruit. You are careless, next time check first what you want to do so you will avoid problems like this.”
“Thanks.”
“I will watch over you, but maybe I won't do the same thing like this continuously for you, I am not as good as the other gods.”
“Despite that, thanks.”
“Yes, I look forward to the thing I want it to be, don't forget it.”
“Just relax, I will definitely get it.”
“I'll wait.”
Voice disappeared. “Haaa, so because of this, yes.” I looked at the fruit I was holding, after which I threw it away. “It is better that I should leave this place immediately.” Even if I made it through, there was no guarantee that such an incident would not happen again.
A few minutes after that.
Just as I was coming, they were both lying down. “Lucy, Iona, sorry to disturb your rest but we have to get out of this place soon.”
“Eh, why suddenly?” (Lion)
“Haa, so. Fine fine, princess come quickly.” (Lucy)
“Huh? What was? Why am I the only one who doesn't understand?”
“Already, come on daughter quick do not waste time.”
As always, Lucy is quick and responsive in this way.
Long enough after that.
“Ari, what's the matter? Why do we have to rush?”
“There is something rich, and it's good if you don't need to know.”
“So, yes already.”
We made our way to the Juinds mountain.
Afternoon.
We arrived at the kingdom of Guilty in the afternoon. “It's a little late than what was scheduled.” (Lucy)
“The load that Dravin carries alone is more than what he can actually carry, after all if the speed is faster we will not be able to survive above it and maybe we will fall.”
“True also.”
A while later, we all descended quite far from Guilty kingdom precisely in a quite dense forest. “Dravin, tomorrow afternoon we will meet you here, if there is any problem maybe we will be a little late.” He returned to sleep mode.
“Ari, come fast!!” (Lion)
“Ya, I'll catch up soon.” They were both far ahead. “Dravin, if anything happens while we're there you can help us to distract. It's just a plan for the worst part, but take it easy I've prepared very well.” There was no response. “Haa, I don't know if you heard it or not but thank you for bringing us here.” I slowly left her, following Iona and Lucy who were far ahead.
A while after that.
We made it into the kingdom, even though there was a slight problem.
“You bribed him?” (Lucy)
He whispered to me. “Haa, yes like that.”
“So, how much did you give?”
“Not much, at least it shouldn't I talk about.”
“Hmm, then where did you get that money? I didn't know you got the money?”
“This is money from your salary during my assistant first.”
“Eh? I also get paid?”
“Yes, but since you said you wanted to learn I take that as payment.”
“Ehhh!! I didn't even know I could get paid. How much do I pay?”
“Hmm, I don't know. I also used the money to travel and also vacation the squad leaders and others.”
“Heee..”.
“What are you two talking about?” (Iona) Iona, who had been moving away, slowly started walking side by side.
“Nothing, just small talk.”
“Oh yes, Ari the money in the box was exhausted, did you use it?”
“Iya, I've used it for this holiday.”
“Oh yes princess, how much money is there?” (Lucy)
“Hmm, if it's not wrong about 500 or 700 thousand Els, that if I don't miscalculate it could probably be more than that.”
“S-as much as it.”
“Ya.”
“Hey, that's all my salary?” Lucy whispered to me.
“Everything is used, want to protest anyway you also agree with the holiday plan for the others.”
“I-it was true, but..”
“Already, you've learned a lot. With the knowledge you get from me you can get more out of it.”
“Haa, yes already.”
A few moments later.
“Ari, where are we going to sleep tonight?” (Lion)
Without me knowing it, the sun was already setting. “Hmm, we are looking for a simple lodging.”
“Good.”
After that we looked for lodging.
Nightfall.
In an inn.
“Haaa, this is passable too.” (Lucy)
“Ya, this is not bad.” Lucy and I slept in 1 room while Iona slept in a separate room.
“How much does it cost to stay overnight here?”
“If not wrong, about 11 or 17 thousand.”
“Haaa, it's a little expensive. But that's it, with facilities 2 mattresses are quite this price like that does not seem to matter. Then, how much money do you have left now?... Uh, what is this?”
I threw a bag at him. “Sisa money I brought, you can take it.”
“Eh? Seriously!”
“Yes, after all there is nothing else I can buy.”
“Huh? You don't want to buy souvenirs or anything?”
“My purpose here is not for that.”
“Then, about the destination you discussed at that time. What exactly is the reason you want to go to Juinds Mountain?”
“I don't want to talk about it.”
“I won't force you, but you can't do it alone.”
“Yes, I know it.”
“By the way, did you see it?”
“Huh? See what?”
“When we rest in the forest, do you see it?”
“Huh? Say it more clearly, don't confuse me.”
“The outback tribe in the forest, you saw it?”
“Haaa, it turns out that.”
“So you really saw it, yeah. How do they exist?”
“They're human.”
“Hooo, not many people know about the tribe inland. It was once said that people who had seen the tribe would never be found again.”
“So so.” At least I understand the reason there is a Guillotine there, it is to kill people who see their form. For the reason that they did that, I don't know exactly but it doesn't seem like a good thing to keep thinking about.
The atmosphere became quiet for a while.
“Ari, do you know about the wedding of princess Iona?”
“Huh? Wedding Iona?”
“The current age is enough to hold a wedding, of course for the purpose of strengthening the kingdom.”
“Political destination, yes.” The thing I dislike the most.
“What will you do?”
“I've said it before, it's been a long time. If the kingdom does need a very strong military force, I will make it happen, but if a father wants to see his daughter suffer then.” Somehow I can't continue my words, I'm afraid, right now I'm not in her position so I don't know what Iona really thinks about this, and again the reason why she's hiding this from me.
“If only princess Iona disagrees, what do you want to do?”
“Stop that wedding.”
“Can you do it?”
“It was very easy, but for the next maybe something bad will happen to me.”
“You saved someone but you yourself are in danger, isn't that a little sloppy.”
“Think it was a last resort, even though after doing something like that I should have a good reason why I did it. That's the most important.”
“Don't you already have the reason? You love her, am I wrong.”
“I can't save it.”
“Heee, are you ashamed?”
“Entaihlah, but not because of it.”
“Then?”
“Iona, I know you eavesdropped. Login.” The door opened and Iona slowly started to enter. “So, how much have you heard?”
“M-sorry.”
“Haa, stop. Lucy, don't make any less-than-baked plans like this again. Next time if you want to do something, do it well.”
“Hahahaha, it was found out.”
“Iona, come back to your room, we'll leave early tomorrow.” I decided to go to bed because tomorrow is an important day.
“Good.”
Outside room.
“Sorry princess, I can't help much.”
“T-no need to apologize, I should be the one to thank you for helping me. Although a little disappointed, but I am also happy because Ari still cares about me.”
“He actually likes you too, but I don't know why he won't reveal it. Though if only he wanted he could directly propose to you.”
“I-it's too fast. Even so, I also hope like that.”
In the room.
‘I can hear what you guys are talking about.’ I who want to sleep do not so because of hearing the talk of the two of them. ‘Iona, I'm sorry, I can't say.’ I am bound by a covenant and if it is broken then I will disappear from this world.
The covenant between me and the goddess.
