The Cold Blooded Hunter: Seeker of Peace
245. Towards Semeru
I opened my eyes, and someone covered my gaze, "What?"
"You are not alone in facing this ordeal, there is me, Rei, Andhika, Dusk, another Hunter." replied the man then he crouched down in front of me, "Keep it..."
Vina smiled broadly in front of me, she crouched down in front of me then pulled my das, "Down..."
I got down from the chair and sat in front of him while repairing my broken chest, "What now?"
"Simple, if you have a problem, just tell me now." replied Vina, "I'll listen here, even until morning I will accompany you to tell the story."
"Huh.." I put both my hands on his shoulders, "What idiot are you, intending to accompany me here until morning?"
"It is not only until morning that I will accompany you until we are separated by death" he replied, and I remained silent.
Huh huh? Stupid ah, how could I possibly stay here to death?
"If you're tired of Hunter's life, you can lay down your sword and live happily with me, how?" Vina was heard offering something, and I raised my eyebrows.
Vina is getting weird by the day...
He stood up and took something on my desk, whatever it was, then he sat down again in front of me and put down the thing he took... Pen and paper?
"OK, I'm going to draw something, I hope you understand my image..." Vina smiled and he started drawing.
I folded my hands and looked at him, what did he want to draw? Moreover... The line is not straight at all! We're going around here!
"Already.." he put down the pen, "Read and understand."
I took it and looked at it...
I got my name on top, and then there's... Three lines leading towards me? And at the end of those three lines are the names Vina, Dusk, and Carroline? Then there is a line leading to Dusk and a line leading to Carroline? At the end of those two lines, were the names Andhika and Rei?
"Explain." I put the paper down, "You're not clearly drawing what..."
Seriously, even with the INT points that I have, I am unable to digest what Vina describes...
"Just that's it..." Vina stood up, "So, when are you going to Semeru?"
"Tomorrow.." I replied.
There is no time to relax, in the last two months of 2329, I must complete the preparations for the final war against the Monsters, so that victory can be guaranteed.
"Okay, I'm coming..." Vina walked away, "Tell me if you want to go!"
The sound of the door closing rang out, and I stared at the paper lying on the floor.
"What does this mean?"
"Heaven, we'll talk outside for a while." Grandfather's voice and my mother's voice were heard, and before long two flames came out of my body and formed a human, and then both of them left my room.

"Grandfather, do you think Vina is a good woman for Heaven?" Ayu looked at the Star within.
"Then what about you?" The star folded her hands, "Honestly, the woman's instincts are very strong, her attitude is also firm, but her nature is rather nosy on the Sky, but well..."
"Well what?" Ayu sighed, "Did grandpa feel something unique about him?"
"Yes..." The star nodded, "His love for the heavens is so great, I can't believe that a fifteen-year-old teenager seems to be able to say such a thing, so great is he..."
"If I say, Vina is a woman fit for Heaven..." Ayu folded her hands and raised her face, looking up at the sky.
"Your reason?" The star sighed, "Don't tell me just instinct?"
"Don't you know, maybe I feel that Vina is the good boy who will guard the heavens until death do them part?" Ayu glanced at the Star, "Remember her words earlier..."
"Ah, that's yes..."

"Completed?"
"It."
"It."
"Tents?"
"It."
"And lastly, is your body still safe?"
"It."
"Okay, time to go."

"Sky, are you sure you know the position of Mount Semeru?" I heard Vina ask, "The problem is that you're speeding on the road like no direction!"
"That's why you're quiet!" I exclaimed, "Silence is the duty of the passengers, let the riders who seek the way!"
I honestly don't know where Mount Semeru is, but I felt a faint strange chill on the island of Java, even after two days I left Jakarta with Vina on a motorcycle, that strange air is not gone.
What the fuck is that weird air? To be honest, it's hard to guess whether it's a friend or an opponent?
That is why I am moving towards the most strange air, towards the east.
I guessed that Semeru might have something to do with what I've been looking for all this time, so I had to try to find it even though the percentage I thought was very small just to be able to find one clue.
"What if the strange air you feel actually comes from Semeru?" grandpa Vian's voice sounded, and I was pensive again.
Grandpa Vian I consider very wise, well, although I have not seen it directly, but I can feel it only from his calm speech and his truly authoritative stature.
Moreover, he said that he was trapped in another world by the name of Elysie, the strongest Flame General I had ever taken, making me believe he was actually a wise man like a king.
"Do you know where Semeru's mountain lies?" my question is, I hope that with the instructions given by Grandpa Vian, I can find Semeru faster.
"In Lumajang district and Malang district, for the hiking trail, I don't know." he replied, and his reply left me speechless.
"Heavenly Watch! In front of me is a rock!"
I'm back to focusing forward, and right! There's a rock in front of us!
I slammed the handlebar of the motor to the right, avoiding the rock. Although we were able to avoid the boulder, Vina and I were unable to save ourselves, so we fell off the bike and rolled in the middle of the forest.
"Damn it.." I woke up slowly, I looked up to Vina to wake up, "Why am I so slow?"
"The sky.." I was pushed by Vina and I fell face down again, while Vina held my body back, "Some one came..."
I raised my eyebrows, I sharpened my hearing and yes, I heard quite heavy footsteps and small talk...
"Uncle Patih, are you sure the sky will come here?"
"Let's know, I actually just felt with my ability, that there were two people entering the Semeru region at high speed and their bike hit a big rock."
"The air is still felt, but there is a very heavy air, like the air of Patih's uncle..."
"Ah, I'm not that strong..."
I kept silent saying nothing, both of them I felt very strong, even I felt that I would not be able to fight one-on-one...
"Here he is, the owner of a very strong air..."
I looked back and looked at the figure that had just greeted me earlier...
The two figures, first skinny tall with his head adorned with a luxurious crown, the aura he emitted was extremely warm and also felt heavy, he said, and the second was another tall, muscular man I met besides Uncle Frans and Mr. Tom, the aura he emitted was also very heavy, his hair rolled up and tied up, and something was wrapped around his waist, too, but I'm sure it's not a sword.
The tall thin person folded his hands and approached, "So, I guess you are Sky Satria, are you? Or should I call you Lord Flame Emperor?"
