The Last Ruler: The Return of the Goddess
Monster Attack

After hearing what Israhi had talked about with her acquaintances, Altair and the others were increasingly surprised by it. Monsters don't usually stay in one place all the time if they're in groups, unless they're making a nest around there. However, according to the story of Aron who had been searching with several other residents, there was absolutely no monster nest around the city.

It was very hard to believe, especially because of the strange groups that appeared along with the arrival of the monsters. It was likely that they were the ones controlling the monster to wreak havoc on this town.

" What should we do? If left unchecked, sooner or later this city will be destroyed. The victim of his soul will also definitely not be a little" Mira said to those who were still silent thinking about it.

" Personally, I intend to settle in temporarily and help. How's y'all?" ask Israhi to friends.

" If you stay, we stay too. There's no way we're leaving each other, let alone someone who needs help here. Right, guys? " sahut Yi who was possessed by the others.

Well, they're very loyal friends. It's hard to find people like them.

Meanwhile, Altair had only been silent in his place since hearing the current situation. He did not even lift his head to look at those who were there, and just kept silent while shivering.

It's not because of the cold. But the nightmare...

The same event will repeat itself where it is today if it is not stopped.

" How is this...? There will be people who die again. This city will be destroyed. Just like that night.. That can't happen again.. I have to help. but how..?" his mind was completely unsettled because of that.

His desires and fears mixed into one and made him unable to think clearly. At the same time, Mira who was sitting next to him realized that.

He stretched out his hand, and grasped the hands of Altair which he linked together. Making Altair himself look at him.

Mira just smiled, then she said. " It's okay, everything will be fine. Trust me. "

Hearing that, made Altair feel a little better. He nodded his head at Mira and tried to calm himself.

Tonight, they'll be staying at Aron's. While waiting for the arrival of monsters that always come every midnight, none of them can really sleep well. Including Altair...

So Altair got up and looked out the window. The situation was quieter and darker than daylight, even looking like there was not a single life there. Like a dead city.

There was no sign that a monster was coming, Altair felt like going out for a while. Because of that... He immediately jumped out through the window, if he came out through the door, Mira would have immediately come and forbid him to come out. He prefers the window.

" Hm, I wonder if there is anything interesting in this city." Inwardly Altair, he also walked following the path that is currently before him.

Unaware, another pair of eyes saw her walking away after coming out of her room... Israhi.

" What's he doing??" Israhi wondered.

He deliberately did not sleep and watched from the top of the house before the monster came, but what he saw was Altair who went from there. Not wanting anything bad to happen to him, he secretly followed him in the direction he was headed.

On the other hand, Altair was immersed in his own thoughts, he was thinking what he should do when those monsters appeared. Mira once told him that the types of monsters are divided into many types. Among them were mindless monsters and bloodthirsty monsters.

The two monsters would not have been easily subdued if they had not been crippled and locked up or killed. Altair still did not know what kind of monster was coming to the city, and thought there might be something that could help him determine what kind of monster was to come.

" If you set a trap.... I think it'll make it easier to catch them. A magic trap, a cage that all monsters can't break." thought Altair.

He did not pay attention around, now he was in a place that he did not recognize. The night was dark, and most of the buildings in the city did not glow, it was difficult to find them in the dark. Although he could indeed search for Mira from her aura, he was.

But he was more interested in where he was at the moment...

" This looks ancient. "inner Altair when looking at the stone floor that looks a lot has carvings under his feet.

He stood in the middle of an altar, with nine stone pillars surrounding him.

" It feels familiar. "guman Altair is a bit doubtful, when then the wind suddenly blows and the scenery in front of him changes instantly.

A vast field of weeds before his eyes looked like a golden tapestry, he was still standing on that altar. A moment later he saw something descending from the sky, with a bright light so dazzling. A woman with 9 sparkling wings on her back.

" Altaire... Altair!.."

He heard someone calling him, but his attention was still fixed on the Angel who came down from heaven. But when the woman turned to look at him, Altair immediately realized..

" Huh??" his response saw Israhi who was now right in front of him while holding both shoulders with a strange expression according to Altair.

" Altair, are you okay??" while Israhi was actually worried to see her who had just been silent.

Altair did not understand his intention, and tilted his head. " ha? Whatchu mean? I'm fine, really. By the way why are you here, when did you come? " ask Altair curiously.

Israhi who heard him also confused himself, he pulled his hand from Altair's shoulder and said.

" I followed you because you went out alone at night. I've even called you since, but you didn't respond at all" he told Altair.

" following me? From earlier?" sahut Altair also confirmed. And Israhi nodded her head in response.

Instead of being surprised, Altair daydreamed again. He did not know that Israhi was following him there, and before he was sure he saw something, unfortunately he did not remember what it was. Just like the dream he had seen before.

Altair wanted to know why it was so easy now to forget something, what had happened to him??

" Altair, you daydream again" said Israhi looking at it rather confused. If not immersed in daydreaming, Altair would have spoken for itself. He wanted to know what was on his mind at all times.

" em, yeah. I just feel like I'm forgetting something" Altair said.

Deadline.. Deadline.. Deadline...

The sound of the clock bells in the city rang out loud all the way to their place, the sign of midnight had come.

Then something immediately Altair and Israhi felt from their place, including a rumbling sound that was heard coming closer from a distance towards the city.

" From the west" Altair said of the voice.

Israhi turned to the city and narrowed her eyes, "They came, we have to go back, he said, who then grabbed Altair's hand and pulled him back to the city.
