On the same day.
Dania and Arhes returned to the palace, and because Arhes took his annual leave to visit his sister in the village, Arhes received the permit from the Commander of Calporth.
And to help her travel, Calporth helped her by giving her permission to use teleportation, only that the teleportation they could use only covered half of her journey.
Given 2 horses, Dania and Arhes began their journey.
Geck...
Tak....
Tock....
Tak....
Tock....
Tak...
The footsteps of the horses that treaded onto the ground streets became the breakers of their silence.
Arhes led his way, while Dania took steps to follow him only.
Since there was no topic of conversation that the two of them could talk about, it made him only brimming with awkwardness.
" Well, your sister or a boy?. "
" female. "
" the disease?. "
" Don't know, I still can't take him to the city, other than a long trip, where should they stay?. "
Given that the price to rent a room is very good, not to mention for treatment.
" I just got home this time after 1 year. "
".................."
[He can confide easily, what should I say?. ]
" How old is he? "
" 15 years. My aunt takes care of my sister. "
[Then his parents?. ]
Dania never thought, how does it feel to have a caring older brother?.
Does it feel so much different to a foster sister?.
Then their journey continues, to cut the travel time, Arhes tells a shortcut, Arhes, but that should be used as a reference to continue to be vigilant if passing the shortcut because there are dangers around the road.
Therefore, Dania chose the fastest way, after all, there are many dangers that have often been faced.
" Nuts. "
[Irshin Village is a village located in the northern region of the empire, if according to the information I got, it is actually a danger of passing this shortcut because there are often robbers. ]it is no longer a secret for Dania who has read some books in the city library, the facts behind each village that he said there was a curse, or a village famous for slave villages.
He got it and he knew what he was reading and hearing. There is an advantage Dania who early in the morning or midnight out of the palace to the streets of the capital just a walk, he so get a lot of information.
He did just for mere fad, and the basic thing to know the ins and outs of the place he lived.
Back to the story.
With a speed of 40 Km/h, they rode a horse at that speed for approximately an hour. And the sun has started to be overhead, the light is scorching enough to make everyone including animals and plants even need water to drink.
Arhes stopped the horse, and got down from the saddle.
" Has it arrived?. " Dania instead asked while wailing in the middle of the forest, well maybe his house was in the forest.
" Are you tired and thirsty?. "
Dania who smiled faintly replied slowly.
" Ah.so. I wasn't thirsty enough, but I was going to drink. "he decided to get off the horse and his hand took the water bag he was carrying.
" Drink if you want to drink, " and whisper to the horse because by chance in front there is a small river.
Glucose......Glucose......Glucose.....Glucose........
Two strange creatures were seen in the eyes of Arhes, the man was drinking and the animal with the name of the horse also drank.
" Do you want to?. "offer his favorite banana to Arhes.
But Arhes shook his head slowly, so Dania offered it to the horse.
[................]
" We're taking a half-hour break. "
And only Nugukan by Dania, because his mouth contains bananas.
[I was forced to stop even though it was only 3 hours away because she was a girl, who might have been tired but wouldn't tell me. But the reaction is just like.... ]
' I'm not tired yet. '
When he answered that he himself (Dania ) had not felt thirsty.
However, the name of the long journey does not have to be forced to arrive as soon as possible despite cutting the path, and seeing that the lady enjoyed her rest, so Arhes deliberately rested for half an hour.
___________
BRCRM.........
BRCRM........
{ I'm tired... } said the horse who just snorted.
Dania knew the maximum horsepower limit was almost at the tip of the horn, Dania stopped her horse to stop, and she came down from the horse to reduce the load.
" Why did you stop?. "when Arhes realized that she was left behind, so she had to go back again.
" I don't want to lecture you, you can talk informally to me I'm not your mistress or employer, and you also look older than me right, so no problem. "
" .................. " Given such a warning, it turns out to be a good opportunity, because basically Arhes also does not like formal speaking.
" Well if that's what you want. "
" And why did I stop, because these two horses were too tired." gave an answer as well as a warning to remind Arhes who seemed impatient to get home.
KRUYUUKKK~......
"................"
[It wasn't the sound of my stomach, was it?. ] Dania sat down with an anxious heart.
His eyes looked at Arhes's face, saw Arhes turned his face, he knew that the tafi sound came from Arhes' stomach which was impatiently asked to fill.
" I want to rest" said Dania while leading her horse to a place that has a lot of grass and there happens to be a shade tree under which there is a puddle of water and green grass.
" I'm going to go catch a fish" said Arhes and left his horse to Dania.
As far as Arhes, then the two horses...
{ He is a prestige human. } said the dark horse rode by Arhes earlier.
{ Pfft...you are not as lucky as me, you were done rode by the man. } said brown horse.
The first horse only glanced at him with a lazy look.
" You two, look like close friends. " Sela Dania, she patted the cheeks of a brown horse, for daring to laugh at her friend who looked more tired than her.
The two horses were staring at Dania simultaneously, the plain-looking face in the eyes of the two horses was not the same as her true nature.
{ Why can you talk to us?. } asked the dark horse, because only the first time there are humans who understand their words.
Dania laughed proudly.
" Of course because I'm gifted. "in short, by bragging.
{ All, looking at him cutely.
" This is how I can pay attention to you, right?. "he said again.
BRCR........
Still wondering, Dania decided to go look for something?.
No, he was preparing himself for.....
PRIITTT.........
Whistling loudly.
{ Hey, are you fishing a pack of wolves?. } ask the brown horse.
" What?, are there wolves?. "
{ Where is there a forest where there are no wild animals? } said again.
Hearing it like that, it turned out that this horse had a point as well.
But want how else, he wanted to call a partner who did not know in this profit, because suddenly it had stuck on his right shoulder.
" Hurry up. " he murmured, because he felt his shoulders ache.
Kwak...kwak...kwak...\= { of course, means you miss me right?. }
" It's too PD" Dania replied with a dive.
{ Oh..that's your friend?. } the dark horse is curious.
" Ya~... "
Kwak..kwak... \= { Why suddenly call me?. }
" He~....if I say really miss how?. " while smiling mockingly.
" Of course I want to use you for a moment. "
Everst who is indifferent because her words about missing Dania is just a lie, she is now playing with her wing feathers to tidy up her slightly messy fur.
" You heard I didn't?. "was irritated at the cuekin by the bird***** this.
Kwak?. \= { What?. } with head tilted to the left.
" Ugh...". "because the behavior of birds like this is very laughable Dania, Dania did not become angry and actually made her more anxious.
Dania swallowed her own saliva, then both her hands caught up to Everst's body and instantly...
HUGGED HIM......
" Ughh...I do miss you, adorable.huh.." as a person who loves birds so much, Dania felt by hugging him, she said, the overflow of his longing can finally be shed on this sometimes understanding bird.
