As night fell, in his room, Altair was still reading some books he had borrowed from the library, he was still gathering whatever information he found useful. Although some of the books he borrowed were also action romance novels that he accidentally found in the library.
" Huwaaa. I've never read this many books before. Because it's too cool to not pay attention to the time" said Altair while stretching his body that feels sore.
Altair turned his eyes to Zico who was on his bed, like he had slept because the day was already very late. Altair then got up from his seat and cleaned his table that was full of books. But there is one book that always attracts his attention, namely the book about the Dragon King found in the library.
Altair picked up the book and took his attention for a moment, "Hm.. why can't Master Yin read it?? And I could "murm Altair.
Altair then walked towards his bed and directly away from himself on the mattress, to make Zico who was sleeping jumped in shock because of him. Altair who saw him just laughed.
" Hey, Zico. Do you know about the Dragon King?? " ask Altair as well while propping up her chin.
Kyu...
Zico said, tilting his head.
" You don't know, do you?? I didn't either. "
Then Altair showed the book in his hand to Zico, so they could see it together.
" Want to read it?? "
Kyu...
Altair smiled happily because Zico agreed to read the book, so Altair began to open the book.
[Thousands of years ago, when the 4 worlds were connected to each other. When the Gods and Demons were still sharing life with Humans, there lived an Ancient Dragon called Bahamut. The strongest dragon among the dragons, until finally he was appointed King for the Dragons.
He was born cruel and cruel from the beginning, but never interfered with the life of any creature that did not disturb him.
One day, a world-guard Goddess from heaven descended to earth, right before the Dragon Monarch. In just one look, the two of them felt a strange vibration from each of them. The two different beings are bound to each other, by a feeling called 'Love'.
But because of a tragedy that makes the Goddess killed, the Ancient Dragon Bahamut wreak havoc in the four worlds, where Gods and Demons live among mankind was met with destruction. All creatures must work together to prevent the destruction of a world that is more severe, but Bahamut is too powerful than they imagined, even the Gods barely managed to seal Bahamut.
Until then, the mother of the Goddess who loved Bahamut also resurrected her dead daughter. The resurrected Goddess also used all her life force, and fought with all her might until she finally managed to seal Bahamut. The Goddess who had been dead since the beginning could not be in the world any longer, so she used her remaining power to separate the 4 worlds.
Besides, the Gods agreed to make an existence that was the key among them, namely the Princess of the Four Worlds. The Princess of the Four Worlds was the existence of a girl that most Gods cherished and received all her blessings. In addition to serving as the guardian of the balance of the World, the Princess of the Four Worlds also became the guardian for her sealed confinement Bahamut. So that the Dragon can continue to be watched and remain imprisoned forever.
Until the time when the seal of Bahamut weakens and is destroyed, the Goddess who once locked it will be reborn. And will determine the end of the destiny that binds him and Bahamut, he will appear and save the world]
It was a story written in the book that Altair brought, as if telling the story of the past and also what will happen in the future. Altair was able to figure out his outline after reading that Altair could deduce one thing.
Catastrophe that existed in the past will certainly also appear in the present.
Tests.. Tests..
Kyu...
Zico looked at her worriedly when he saw Altair who was suddenly crying, Altair who had just realized her was also very surprised by herself.
" ah... I'm fine, Zico. But.... " Altair gave a pause from his words while thinking about the story in the book, "Isn't this a sad story?? The Goddess and Bahamut only love each other, but why is the end of them so tragic?? What tragedy did the Goddess die from, and made Bahamut so angry?? " said anyway.
Kyu...
" Mhm... I know, it's not good to think too much of anything, right, Zico?? "
Kyu...
" yes. I will be strong and look for both of my parents, if that time comes... Let's go around the world together, Zico. "
Kyu...!
Altair was very happy with Zico's answer, now he is not alone anymore in the big palace. Because now he has Zico at his side.
" oh?? Whatisthis?? "
Altair realized there was another piece of writing behind the book's last sheet, the words being written so small they could barely be read. But fortunately... Altair could still understand the writing.
[- Part of the prophecy says: If it is to abolish calamity, it must destroy the chains that bind the Goddess.
The eight space planets will align, tens of thousands of stars listening to the command. When the Dragon and Goddess guards awaken again, the world will return to chaos. You must destroy the punishment of the God who binds you, and awaken a power that can shake the heavens and earth to wipe out the calamity that befalls the world]
Altair and Zico tilted their heads after reading that, there were no words clearer than that. And no one could give an answer to his curiosity, for no one could read the book but the previous Emperor.
Kyu...
Zico shook his head not knowing, let alone Altair asking.
Pukkp...
Altair closed the book with a feeling of arrogance, "Huftt, but was very curious, but there was no answer. It sucks! " Altair was yelling and banging his hands and stomping his feet in annoyance.
Altair was then silent while puffing his cheeks annoyed, but then he looked at Zico who was also staring at him seriously.
Altair smiled, "What's up, Zico?? Are you sleepy again?? Or do you want to tell me something?? " ask streak Altair.
Kyu...
" I know it's late, so what if I go to sleep now?? "
Kyu~...
" All right, come on over here. I'm gonna hug you. "
Altair stretches out his arms when Zico comes to his arms, and he pulls a blanket for them to use together.
" Good night, Zico. "
Kyu...
Finally, Altair arrived at their dream. He fell asleep very soundly, but unfortunately he did not realize someone was watching him from the outside.
Out of the window, mingled in the darkness of a night illuminated only by moonlight, a spy appeared to be concerned about Altair's room which was no longer glowing.
" Hm.. What exactly do you think about that girl?? He was just acting like an ordinary person who happened to enter the palace, it made no difference at all. " muttered the person who was spying on Altair.
The man wrote a letter and attached it to the foot of a message-delivering bird, it must contain a report which he wished to submit to the man whom his Master had called. But when he let go of the bird, someone else caught it before it even flew away.
" What?! Who's there?! " said the man cautiously cautioning around.
" That is why you are trying to spy, my Master. "the word of a voice is also heard behind the man, which then he immediately turned his head back.
" Si, Who?! " ask her anyway.
But the person he asked did not answer his words at all, and what the spy saw was just a child standing on the roof. While holding the bird that he had caught.
A moment later, the spy felt stiff. He was unable to move in the slightest from his spot, when the aura emitted by the little boy before him was completely unfriendly. Even just to make a sound, he couldn't.
" the... Who is this boy?? " the inner word of the spy.
The little boy in front of him then squeezed the bird he caught to death, and dropped it just like that. Only then did he stare at the spy...
" I can't be forgiven!. " said the boy full of warning.
" A.. I warn you!. "said the spy who was in vain.
The boy clasped his hand at the spy, "I don't need your warning. "the answer in the cold.
Blarrs...
" A-ck!!"
And immediately, the spy was burned with a bluish fire covering him, his screams could not be heard by anyone because the little boy he met had installed soundproof magic so that no one could hear him.
The main reason was so that the sleeping Altair would not wake up because of the voice of the person he had vanished.
When the spy had disappeared, the little boy disappeared from there and reappeared in Altair's room. He looked closely at the person called the master, the figure of Altair who was asleep looking very fragile.
He was still too weak to be able to guard himself in the outside world, even if he had great strength. Even to realize such a small intruder just now he could not.
The little boy grasped Altair's hand gently and kissed her. " Don't worry, Master. Zico will always accompany you to the side, and help you find your parents. "
