Rama and the Lost Art of Martialism
Meet With Veteran Adventurers

First person point of view, Rama :

"Then, how are we supposed to get back, Renia?"

Tanyaku.

Renia then showed me a map of this world. He explained how we all went back to Verdifield Palace.

"Look!"

Said Renia while showing a map of the World.

"Our current location is here, the continent of Ignis."

Continue Renia's words while pointing towards the Continent in question.

"We are in the city of Flameforg, moving north, we are going to the city of Blazehaven and then we have to be in the main city of the continent, the Inferno citandel."

Further explanation.

"However, to get there we have to have money. Do you know how to make money, Rama?"

Ask Renia to me.

"What if we just form a party?"

My reply to Renia.

"I also thought there. However, to form a party we still lack people."

Reply Renia to my suggestion.

"To form a party, we must have at least three members. After that, there will be a test to measure the strength and worthiness of our party."

Explanation from Renia.

"What if we take Isabella?"

I asked Renia.

"That's possible. However, we haven't cleared up any misunderstandings between us all."

Reply Renia.

"You're right .. " My murmur.

Long story short I was with Renia out of the inn, we decided to look for the wind at night while discussing what steps would be taken later.

While walking into a narrow alley, there was a grandfather who was begging. Out of pity, I decided to give him some money.

"Thank you, young man."

Said the beggar's grandfather.

"No need to thank me, Grandpa."

"It's our duty."

I replied to the beggar's grandfather.

"From your clothes, it looks like you guys are adventurers, right?"

Ask Grandpa to Us.

"Sorry, Cake."

"Actually we both still lack people to form a party."

Answer Renia.

"What do you mean, aren't you three, Dad?"

Reply to the Grandpa.

Hearing Grandpa's words, then make us both confused instead of playing. Because as you can see, the current members of our party lack one person and only consist of Me and Renia alone.

"So remember the old days … "

"When Grandpa was still an adventurer."

"At that time, it was still in a state of war against Demon King Caligor. Where, all adventurers are needed, of course, in every mission."

Continue the words of Grandpa.

Renia was shocked, having been able to meet a retired adventurer veteran. But in my heart I asked why He now lives as a beggar.

"Yeah!!!"

"So the former adventurer's grandfather, together against the Demon King Caligor in the past?"

Asked Renia enthusiastically.

"Of course."

Grandpa answered with a smile.

"Sorry to interrupt, why is Grandpa now a beggar."

Sayaku.

"Oiii, Rama !!!"

"Bas rude, why are you asking that?!"

Annoyed Renia kept hitting me.

"Sorry .. sorry … "

I said after being hit by him.

"It's okay."

Said the Grandfather while mediating with Us.

"Look … "

Said the Grandfather as he opened his robe.

We were both shocked when we saw her body that had been badly damaged. Both legs and 1 hand have begun to rot, followed by his left eye that looks bleached, not only that, Grandpa's body looks blackened for a reason.

"Must … "

"To the extent … "

I was surprised by both of us.

"This is the risk that the previous adventurers had to take, when fighting the Demon King Caligor."

"He was very strong, stronger than we thought."

"Grandfather was actually very lucky to still be able to breathe free air in the present."

He said with a smile.

"However, not with Grandpa's party mates who have to die."

Continue his words while looking up.

"Why didn't Grandfather talk about this to the royal party?!"

"At least, so that Grandpa's life isn't as sad as this?!"

Continue saying.

"Rama, why are you yelling at him?!"

Renia interrupted my words.

"It's okay, Grandpa understands his feelings."

Grandfather calmed Renia down with a smile.

"Grandfather has done it, since long ago. But now, Grandpa has given up."

"This kingdom seems to forget the sweat, blood and struggle of Grandfather in the past."

"Grandfather seemed to be forgotten by history and replaced by a new, more powerful Adventurer."

"Not only that, there are still many adventurer veterans whose fate is the same as Grandpa."

"However, our real purpose is not to be acknowledged."

"All we want is … "

"Your young people can feel freedom."

Grandpa said with a sincere smile.

"Although Grandpa's goal is so, it doesn't mean Grandpa should become a beggar!"

"Grandfather at least deserves a better life!"

I'm upset with who I am.

"Hahaha, don't extend it anymore."

Grandpa said while laughing.

I could only keep quiet, thinking about what was really going on in this world. It feels so claustrophobic when you see people who are struggling are now wasted.

"Rama?"

Bisik Renia called me.

"What, Renia?"

My reply.

"Kurasa ... Verdifield also .. Same as this .." Renia continued to whisper to me.

"Once, yeah …. "

Reply and can't say anything more.

"Oh yes, young man!"

Grandpa called me.

"Yes … ?"

My heart goes out to Grandpa.

"Grandfather can feel such a powerful negative aura inside you!"

"Be careful when using it!"

His reply reminded me.

I could only shut up when Grandpa came back saying something strange. First, we have three members. Second, he says it's okay if his life is like that. And now, He says that I have a negative aura that deactivates my power.

It is true that my skill is to turn negative emotions into Mana energy. However, wouldn't it be when deactivating it or when I calmed down, my Mana energy wouldn't come out, right?

Long story short I was with Renia back to the inn.

"Yeah!!!"

"I'm confused!"

Shouted annoyed me.

"There's no point in yelling like that."

Renia said to me.

"Better, you think about how we get out of this situation!"

Say Renia's orders to me.

"Yes, that's what I was thinking!"

My reply to Renia.

"Looks, the only way is to get Isabella."

Said Renia while holding her chin.

"How else, because we don't have anyone's acquaintance here."

Continue saying.

"Well, I'll go look for him!"

I said as I got out of bed.

"Wait …! It's late, we better get some rest first."

Renia told me.

"But what if Isabella's trail disappears?"

My toot.

"Just calm down, he can't do that!"

Said Renia with confidence.

Because the day was late plus my feet felt sore, I then followed his advice.

And I also asked why, why rent one room instead of two.

"Oh yes, Renia. Why did you rent a room to fill both of us?"

Ask her.

After that, Renia's face looked red. In an annoyed tone, He said and threw a pillow at me.

"The basics of the Goa Children .. Our money is not enough, or!"

"And one more thing, don't think weird!"

He screamed while throwing a pillow at my face.

"Ohhhh!!!"

My words hit his pillow.
