The Future Knight's
Chapter 10: an extraordinary country

After becoming an official member of The Falcon Guild, Smoke adapted to the rest of the team quickly. While they were having lunch on Falcona's plane, Yin asked Smoke about the beginning of Leviathan's appearance in Fuusha Village.

Yin: "Hey, Smoke, how did Leviathan begin to appear in Fuusha Village?

Smoke: "This is one of the members of the 7 great sins, Behemoth. He was a user of curse magic, and Leviathan was one of the curses created by Behemoth. Fuusha village has been snowing for 10 years as a result. Two years ago, I faced him, but I lost. Fearing the threat, I decided to protect Fuusha Village until you guys finally came."

The team members listened to Smoke's story seriously, growing increasingly curious about Behemoth and Leviathan

As Smoke explained more about the roles of Behemoth and Leviathan, Zangrid decided to speak.

Zangrid: "I've heard that the 7 great sins have also faced off against the snake snakey Guild led by Julian, right? As of now, the guild had never been seen again."

Yin replied as she reminisced about her past, "Julian is my friend, and it is she who inspired me to become the knight I am today."

Smoke added, "The battle at the God Mount happened seven years ago, and the victory was achieved by the Snakey Guild. But now, the seven great sins are still active."

Yin asked curiously, "What do they really want?"

Smoke explains, "They're looking for Nirvana. Many people think Nirvana is a treasure, but in fact Nirvana is a pearl that has mysterious magic power. If the pearl was discovered by the seven great sins and Demon King Urizen, the world would be in danger. They believe that the reigning King Lancer of the Land of Clover is hiding his place."

Yin, Zangrid, Vanessa, and Smoke were surprised to hear that they were from the Land of Clover, but did not know about this.

Yin, Zangrid, and Vanessa: "We are from the Land of Clover, but we don't know this!"

Smoke added, "However, it's not necessarily the Lancer King who kept it." All team members are increasingly curious about this secret and know that they will face even greater adventures.

High spirits engulf The Falcon team as they plan a trip to Goumatria. Yin spoke confidently, "Just calm down, Nirvana will not be found by them. I'll find him!" The team members smiled and believed completely in Yin, feeling they were in the hands of a strong leader.

As their food supplies ran out, they were increasingly convinced that a trip to Goumatria was the right decision. Goumatria is famous for its delicious and rare food ingredients, as well as having many famous restaurants and prosperous villages.

They immediately prepared for the trip to Goumatria, using Falcona aircraft that had become their flagship vehicle. Smoke looked at the plane with enthusiasm and commented, "This plane is really amazing. I can see why you guys are so great."

The Falcon arrived in Goumatria with a burning spirit. They soon split the team up to buy the delicious and rare foodstuffs that the country is famous for.

The first team consisted of Yin and Zangrid, who excitedly entered the Goumatria market while shouting, "Let's find some groceries!"

The second team consists of Aria and Smoke, who walk through the bustling streets of Goumatria. Aria with a wide smile commented, "This is the perfect place to look for new ingredients, Smoke."

Meanwhile, the third team is made up of Vanessa and Riley, who are shopping with great enthusiasm. Vanessa pointed to a famous restaurant and said, "We should try the food here later, Riley!"

All the teams are busy looking for new food and experiences in Goumatria, unaware that their adventure in the country is just beginning.

Some of the team members had already returned to the plane, saving their shopping happily. However, there were concerns that started to arise because Yin and Zangrid had not come home even though night had already arrived.

As it turned out, Yin and Zangrid did not spend their time shopping, but instead they found a very lucrative restaurant in Goumatria. They ate very large portions, and dish after dish came unceasingly. Even the citizens who saw them eating were shocked by this incredible appetite.

Yin and Zangrid, who had just been filled with delicious food at a Goumatria restaurant, found themselves sitting next to a well-built and big-bodied grandfather. The grandfather ordered a simple glass of white milk, and a smile was etched on his face.

Yin, still feeling surprised, could not help but be curious. He asked in astonishment, "Who is this grandfather?"

The grandfather replied in a soft voice, "How, is it full, Yin?"

The grandfather smiled and replied with great mystery, "Of course I know your name, Yin. You defeated Marshall the Tiger Demon and Leviathan in Fuusha Village. Your name has reached the ears that know."

After Don Esteban introduced himself, Yin and Zangrid were completely dumbfounded. Yin was even surprised to spit out a bit of his stomach. Zangrid, who was drinking at the time, almost spat at his drink in shock.

Don Esteban continued, "sorry to surprise you I repeat yes, I used to be the vice-captain of the conqueror guild, led by the valiant captain of the first magic knight king"

Yin was still stunned and had yet to recover from the shock of hearing about the Conqueror Guild and its relationship with Captain Valiant, the famous first magic knight. He suppressed his nausea and asked, "you're vice-captain of the Conqueror guild !?"

zangrid choked then asked "i can't believe this !"

Don Esteban smiled broadly, "I have many stories to tell. Let's talk about this in more detail. There's a quiet place near here, where we can talk without interruption."

In a beautiful forest, Don Esteban takes them to the edge of a magnificent waterfall. The waterfall looks so beautiful with moonlight reflecting above the calm water surface.

Don Esteban said, "You know Julian, don't you, Yin?"

Yin replied excitedly, "Yes, I recognize him. I wonder what has happened to him after the battle at the God Mount!"

Don Esteban smiled and replied, "Julian is a great knight, and his fate is still mysterious to me. He disappeared from the magical world after that battle, and I don't know his whereabouts now."

Yin and Zangrid listened carefully. They want to know more about Julian and why he just disappeared after an epic battle.

Don Esteban continued his story, his eyes fixed on the bright moon in the night sky.

"Then, in the Conqueror Guild, there was a crybaby little boy. However, during his time in the guild, I trained him so hard that he grew into a strong man like you see now," Don Esteban said with a warm smile.

He continued, "Before he disappeared, he had met me and said that in Clover's country there was a little boy who had ambitions like Captain Valiant. That's why I'm always looking forward to your arrival, Yin."

Yin, moved by Don Esteban's words, was speechless

Yin asked Don Esteban further, "Who are the Snake Snake Snake Snake Guild members?"

Don Esteban began to mention their names, "Among others, Captain Julian, vice-captain Xavier, as well as members Claude, Heisenberg, V Gets, Frank, and Nero."

Yin smiled with satisfaction when she heard those names. Zangrid later commented, "I guess they'll have more members."

Don Esteban explained, "Although there were only seven people, they were extraordinarily powerful individuals and managed to conquer the 7 Great Sins of their time."

Yin sincerely invites Don Esteban to join The Falcon Guild. However, Don Esteban gently refused and explained, "My era is done, Yin. If I were young, I would be willing to join you. Even so, I will always be ready to help you all the time if you need it."

Yin felt a little disappointed, but she also appreciated Don Esteban's offer of help. They then accept Don Esteban's offer to stay in a hut near the forest.

The next day, they say goodbye to Don Esteban, who promises to always help them if needed. They return to the plane, where Aria nags because of their delay. Yin tries to give a brief explanation, but Zangrid and Smoke begin to argue intensely, almost even fighting.

While watching over their dispute, Yin finally stopped the dispute and invited all members to get ready for their next departure. In high spirits, they continue their adventure, ready to face the deeper mysteries and dangers that may lie ahead.
