SURVIVORS
Chapters 103. The story of Mr. Felix
Midnight.
"Dean, wake. Jaga change. I'm so fucking sleepy." Alan woke Dean who had been sleeping since the afternoon.
Dean squirmed and opened his eyes lazily. He suddenly realized that it was dark.
"Is it night?" tanyanya daze.
"Yes. It's already midnight. You slept well last night so missed dinner. But Widuri put food in the fireplace for you. Get up quick."
Alan grumbled with half-opened eyes. He fell asleep as soon as he touched the wooden surface where Dean had slept before.
Dean got up. Stomach hungry. So his feet automatically stepped into the fireplace, where Widuri left food to keep warm.
Dean ate it well. Grilled and stir-fried vegetables and sliced meat on the plate, immediately toilet. Dean sipped the drink with satisfaction. He immediately cleaned the cutlery and arranged it on a shelf in the kitchen that turned out to be neat.
Dean added wood to the fireplace and sat down on a wooden bench. There are still 4 wooden benches that survived the whirlpool. But now they don't have a dining table.
Dean's planning work tomorrow. There are still parts of the room that have not been completed. Dean lay on the stone floor while counting the stars as a sound made him instantly sit stiff.
Toooooottt..
That's a very loud honking sound. There was only one possible sound so in a place like this. That's the sound of a horn (claxon) ocean liner.
"Seaports?!" dean said beaming.
Suddenly Dean's eyes glowed golden. Look at the area around his residence. Nothing suspicious at that place. Dean could not bear to wake Sunil who was still exhausted.
"I'll just look at the ship for a second, then come back." Dean convinced himself to leave.
A golden light shot past the cliff, towards the sea.
"The sea is strange. The water is not salty. Is this a lake? If true, then this is the widest lake I've ever seen. Until it looks like an ocean." muttered Dean while flying looking for the whereabouts of the ship that made a sound earlier.
Tooootttt..
Dean immediately searched for the origin of the sound. A large sailing ship was moving in one direction. Dean chased and looked at the direction the ship was heading.
After flying a little further away, Dean could see the luminous luminescence scattered at the other end. Although it is still quite far, but Dean is sure that there is a port city to which the horn sounding ship goes. The horn as information the ship wants to dock to the dock.
With a feeling of pleasure, Dean returned to the cliff. And finally found their place hidden from the outside view. The giant wooden trunk that ran parallel to the cliff managed to cover their existence. The light of the fireplace did not make it through the wood. If it wasn't for flying high, Dean wouldn't have found the place either.
Dean stood back on guard in a relaxed manner. He whistled happily. At least, now they had found a small town. They can take a boat to a big city and report their whereabouts to the embassy of their respective countries.
"Finally can go home" he murmured happily.

3 Days after the operation. Mr. Felix is recovering. The swelling in his body slowly disappeared. The urine is no longer cloudy. The itching on his skin also disappeared.
"This injury almost recovered completely. It may be itchy, but don't scratch. When the time comes, I'll remove the threads." Chandra's doctor closes the wound back with medicine and bandages.
Mr. Felix nodded. Then a code gets all the waiters out of the room. There is only Silvia and doctor Chandra with Mr. Felix and his wife.
"I think it's time for me to talk about that far country" Mr. Felix began to talk.
Doctor Chandra feels his heart plong. Relieved, because the way home is now in sight. So he nodded and smiled politely.
"Don't thank me first. I'm afraid you'll be disappointed when you hear my story." Mr. Felix said flatly.
Doctor Chandra became a little worried hearing that. 'Maybe the road there isn't easy? Dangerous?' thought in the heart.
"When I was young, when my father was still ruling this country. The situation in this world was very peaceful.The 5 clans that ruled this land coexisted peacefully. There were the Elf clan, the tree fairy clan, the magician clan, the hobbit clan, and the blue dwarf clan. But there was one Orc clan that was hot-blooded and always made a fuss everywhere."
Everyone was patiently waiting for Mr. Felix to continue the story.
"Initially from my grandfather, they were just a troublemaker clan. If they are troubled, then we will arrest and seek damages to their clan. But since their new king ascended, the commotion caused was no longer just a drunken fight." Mr. Felix sighed.
"As a little prince, I used to travel. My brother always accompanied my father's duties. Then my beautiful and kind little sister, was waiting for her wedding to the prince of the tree fairy clan."
Mistress Felix shrunk the corner of her dewy eyes. Patted on the back of her husband's hand gently, as if to say: "there I am here with you".
"I just got back from that far country with my sister's fiancee. We were shocked to get out of that place. One palace troop has been waiting for us for days in dismay. All the clan elders were also gathered elsewhere. As soon as I and the tree fairy prince walked away, the witches had already cast spells and smashed the glass of the portal door into pieces."
"I could only be shocked and speechless not understanding. It is not my right to question the policy of the elders. And looking at the presence of their respective palace troops, I'm sure it's a decision that every king who leads the clan makes."
"After that, we went back to our own country. From my brother I just found out, that during my time away, the Orc clan has made a very disturbing act, from seizing territory, to killing other clan members. What was more dangerous was the information the magician clan had obtained. That the Orc clan was planning to seize the area of the 3 clans where the portal mirror was located. They want to enter the world behind the mirror and rule over the whole world we live in."
"That's why the portal mirror was broken, so they couldn't get into our world?" Silvia asked with round eyes in horror.
Mr. Felix nodded weakly.
"Then the king of the Orc clan found out that the portal had been destroyed, he went on a rampage.3 The closest countries to the portal got the worst impact. There was a long war where victory and defeat changed as quickly as turning the palm."
"Klan Elf suffered the greatest loss. My sister was the first to die while helping her father who was surrounded by Orc-trained soldiers. Then followed my father who was badly injured and could not be saved. We mourn and raise a new king. Back then the Witch clan came forward to replace us with the hobbit clan. In the end they lost too. But the Orc clan also could not be said to have suffered no losses, they lost a lot, because they were fought by 5 clans simultaneously."
"In the next war, together with the blue dwarf clan, I led the attack. Brother Glenn died to protect me. We can beat them back, but we are very sad. The peace lasted long enough. We didn't think they were deterred. Turns out my brother was murdered on his way back from the hobbit country."
"We again lost the king, and appointed my brother's eldest son as the new king. But I'm already very angry. The next week, together with the witch clan and the tree elves, we pounded the Orc clan. A week of relentless warfare, we finally reached their capital. Their dying king offers a shard of portal mirror for peace. He thought it was important. But he's obviously stupid. The most important thing for all the clans is to kill him so that there won't be any more wars that destroy this world."
"I came home after winning in a one-on-one match with him. Though badly injured, but I can bring his head home and hang it in the middle of the city. Many of the captives we sentenced died then and there."
"But my sadness will not go away. My father, my brother, my son, my brother and his fiancee who was my best friend to make a noise, have gone before me."
"After that, the world is at peace. All the clans recuperated. The king married his fiancee, Glenn was married to his lover and my little daughter was taken also by her husband to the tree fairy clan. While I was preparing to meet everyone who had gone before. But then the doctor came and brought a miracle."
Mr. Felix chuckled slightly as he ended the story. He looked at his wife and nodded.
Lady Felix took out a wooden box and handed it to the maid.
"That's a fragment of the portal mirror I took from the Orc king. I don't know if it can be used or not. If you can, then you can go back to your world again."
Mr. Felix nodded at the servant who immediately handed the box to Dr. Chandra.
"Thank you sir." Doctor Chandra received the box.
Mr. Felix nodded.
"That's an expression of my gratitude for your care. Another fragment, kept by the elders of their respective clans."
Dr. Chandra still has hope. This should be discussed with others first.
