THE LEGEND OF EDWARD
18. THE JOURNEY TO SHIN-ZU EMPIRE
In the morning, the world is bright and so peaceful, the sunshine warmly welcomes every life in this world,
Then the villagers welcomed the day with so much joy, the happiness that every resident always felt, a face that painted a smile, a smile,
The happiness and freedom that every resident feels will probably last for today, whether the future they will remain happy or even behind it,
"Harone.. Have you prepared the things you want to bring..?" Said Edward
"Yes. aki is ready.." Haruna answered Edward's question,
"Sister.. are we leaving now..?" Gorhan said asking about their departure to SHIN-ZU empire,
"Yes.. Are we leaving now..?"
"But sister.. are we not waiting for the arrival of Gon's brother..?" Said Gorhan who was a little worried about the condition of Gon who had not returned home for several days,
Haruna really wanted to ask that too, but Gorhan had gone ahead of him to ask Edward,
"No... We are leaving now, Gon will follow us to SHIN-ZU empire" Edward said to answer the question posed by Gorhan,
After their conversation, they boarded the carriage that Rui had prepared, and Rui also did not forget to hire some adventurers to escort Edward and others to SHIN-ZU's empire,
The cool and shady air of the trees accompanied their journey, and,
"Hoa... Look sis... There are adventurers who are fighting the Slime monster" said Gorhan who looked out the window of the horse carriage, he watched the action of the fight carried out by other adventurers against the Slime monster, which is the one that looks out of the window,
"Gorhan.. Would you like to become an adventurer later..? Ucah Haruna asks Goran's wish,
"Hmmmmm...I really want it to be, but it's up to you" Gorhan said to answer questions from Haruna,
Edward, hearing the conversation between Gorhan and Haruna, gives Gorhan a little advice,
"Gorhan.do whatever you want, as long as you uphold moral values and justice, you will always be behind you to support you and protect you.So long as you respect your values.So, you will always be behind your back, so be yourself" Edward told Gorhan,
Gorhan is young enough to understand what is advised by his older brother,
"And remember Gorhan.. Do not be someone who is arrogant because there is a figure that protects you behind, for example your brother Gon, he is very strong even though his brother does not help him," said Edward again gave advice to Gorhan, who was not a good friend,
"Yes... Sis I get it, I'm gonna try to be like Gon's brother, like,"
Gorhan said excitedly and enthusiastically,
"Edward.. I want to ask..? Where did you study literature,?" Haruna asked Edward,
"I only learned from a very wise Master, he taught me many things,"
"Ohh... I see. I'm sorry well Edward, I was just curious, it's out you are very genius and very wise," said Haruna a little praise Edward, said,
"Well, it's okay Haruna"
After saying that Edward took a look into the system, he wanted to open all the boxes of Hadian that he had in his Inventory,
"Hmmmm there are so many gift boxes that I have" Edward said in his mind,
There are about 50 epick-level mystery box equipment, 100 Mysteri box Gold coin, 80 mid-level mystery box pills and potions, 30 epick-level mystery box items, 2 mystery box equipment unique level, etc, 5 Mystery box agg Devine beast, 10 mystery box skil level grand master, 10 mystery box random, 10 mystery box,
"Hmmm... The system.. I'll open 50 epick-level mystery box equipment first" Edward told the system through his thoughts,

"Wahhh, good enough, for my soldiers later," Edward said in his mind,
Further, Edward opened the epick-level mystery box item and the grand master-level mystery box skil, according to Edward's items and skil that he could not be too useful for his, or her, skill set, however it would be very useful for his subordinates later on,
Edward also opened 2 mystery box equipment unique level,
"System open 2 mystery box equipment unique level,"
System: [SAFE YOU GOT GREAT SWORD DURANDAL AND LONG SWORD EXCALIBUR ]
"Wahhhh.. two legendary Swords, with this I have 4 legendary swords, hahahaha.have luck on me" said Edward felt pleasure, without him realizing it turned out he spoke quite loudly, and was very lucky, Haruna and Gorhan who heard this was a little surprised at Edward, who suddenly spoke alone, Gorhan ventured to ask,
"Sister.. does brother have a legend sword anymore, other than the onimaru who is always on the waist of brother and kusanagi who are in the dimension made by brother..?" Gorhan said curiously,
"Ehhh... did you hear my words just now..?" Edward said a little surprised because Gorhan and Haruna heard what he said, Edward still did not realize that he was talking quite loudly, Edward said,
Haruna and Gorhan just nodded their heads signaling that it was true that they both heard what Edward was talking about,
"Bahhh... I'll show it to you, but remember not to tell anyone,?"said Edward, who resigned,
Edward took out the great sword of Durandal, as the sword came out all over the air becoming cold, and tight, the pressure exerted by the sword of Durandal made everything near Edward feel depressed, the sword with an extremely powerful death aura, even the adventurers who became Edward's travel bodyguards were depressed, he said,
"E.. Edward.. isn't that. it's the sword of God..?" Haruna stammered as she felt very surprised to see the legendary sword before her,
"Yes, this is the sword of the gods" said Edward to answer Haruna's question,
"Sister.. How about the other sword..? Is that sword the same as this great sword.?" Gorhan said inquiring about his other legendary sword,
"Ah... Well I'll show you both" said Edwa,
After his death, Edward put back Durandal's greatsword and took the sword excalibur in his inventory,
As Edward pulled the sword excalibur out from within his inventory, a dazzling white light shot out, forcing both Gorhan and Haruna's eyes to be shut,
A few moments later a very strong vibration was felt by all living beings in the Eastern continent, such as the appearance of Kusanagi, the sword Excalibur also spouted a white light into the sky, but not as strong as Kusanagi,
The sword that was one level below Kusanagi, Edward was a little dumbfounded at seeing so beautiful his long sword that was in his hands, the purity of his authority and wisdom emanated clearly if one held the sword Excalibur, which was the sword Excalibur,
After exposing Edward's two new swords to Haruna and Gorhan, Edward puts his Excalibur sword back in his inventory,
"Wawww... The second brother of the sword was very..it was incredible..!!" Gorhan said in amazement at the two swords that Edward had just shown to him,
Edward simply replied to her with his usual smile,
"Edwards... What is that sword on your waist, as well as that unique sword like that sword,?" Haruna asked for the onimaru sword which was always embedded in Edward's left waist,
Edward took the onimaru sword and put it on his lap and rubbed the sledge using a white cloth,
"Hmm.. so well but why did the sword not give off any aura, even his sense of the sword was just an ordinary sword," said Haruna who was still curious about Onimaru's sword, which was not the same,
"This sword is special, unlike other swords, this sword will bring out all its potential if we become like the devil" said Edward told his knowledge of the sword Onimaru or demon sword,
"Hmmmm..Which is with Kusanagi, can you show me that, please,? Said Haruna who was curious about Kusanagi's sword,
"Ohh if that, no. I can't show Kusanagi to you, you could have been killed just because of the energy of his power, '" Edward told Kusanagi of his strength,
Inevitably Haruna and Gorhan can only undo their intentions to see Kusanagi,
Time... does not feel very fast passing, the bias of light to the orangean looks beautiful in the west, the wind that blows sepoyu grazing pony footsteps, horse footsteps, and, the horse carriage that Edward was riding and also the horses used by his bodyguards had looked tired because they had traveled far, far away,
Edward ordered all of his to find a place to rest, for the night was coming soon,
"Uncle guard. Uncle Toiji. sorry uncle if we can rest here, because I think the day is dark, it's not good if we continue this journey," edward said to the guardian uncle, who was escorting Edward's trip to the capital,
"Yes.. Young master Edward, "uncle guard Toiji and pergih told the others,
"All this stops..!!!" Taoji said with a pretty loud tone,
At once all the bodyguards escorting Edward's journey, stopped after hearing orders from Taoji,
They all stopped and set up tents and gathered firewood to make campfires,
"Gorhan's..Haruna, aren't you hungry..?" Edward said to Gorhan and Haruna,
"Yes, my brother, we are both very hungry, since this morning we have not eaten anything" said Gorhan with a clear face,
"Haha... Well.. wait a minute well, sister will cook food for you, oh.. yes Haruna can you help me, right,? I need your help, ", Edward said
After Edward took out all his cooking tools and spices and ingredients that would become the dinner menu today, Edward and Haruna cooked with them like a pair of cooks, no... It is more appropriate for a husband and wife who are cooking together,
The two of them became an interesting spectacle for his bodyguards, though,
The aroma of cooking was very appetizing, without any saliva dripping on every corner of the lips of Edward's bodyguards, Edward who saw it just shook his head,
"Look down, I cooked a lot for us to have dinner together" Edward told his bodyguards,
They were all very happy with the treatment Edward had done to them,
Edward orders Uncle Taoji to prepare a place for the dinner they will eat together,
A few minutes later...
"the food is ready" said Haruna carrying a tray containing several dishes of food,
The bodyguards who saw her immediately help Haruna and Edward, they work on her together except cooking it was only done by Edward who was slightly assisted by Haruna,
After her they ate dinner together greedily,
.
The night had come, the moon had already appeared above the starry night sky,
Edward sat quietly on a large rock not far from where he set up his tent, while to Gorhan he was joking with his bodyguards, he was very happy to hear the stories of the heroes of antiquity, or just the stories of the adventures they went through, he said,
"Edward..?" Haruna said, as she saw Edward sitting alone on a large rock,
Haruna walked up to Edward who was silently staring at the sky filled with stars,
When Haruna arrived next to Edward, she sat down next to Edward, who was silent and looked at the stars,
Haruna, who saw Edward being swept away in her own world, said a few words that made Edward a little surprised and turned to look at Haruna,
"Good tonight, so many stars in the sky" said Haruna who began the conversation,
Edward was awakened by Haruna's words, and was a little surprised that this time his self lost its vigilance, it would be very dangerous if the one who came was the enemy, the enemy, Edward turned to Haruna for a moment before Edward turned his head and looked up at the night sky full of stars,
"Well, you're right Haruna, there are so many stars in the sky, we'll never even know how many stars there are in the universe" Edward said
Haruna was silent at Edward's response,
They were silent for quite a while until Haruna restarted the conversation,
"Edwards... Do you still want to be friends with me, after you know my background..?" haruna asked Edward a slightly puzzling question,
Without looking at Haruna, Edward answered all the questions that Haruna asked him,
"Harone... I will never look at someone from their background, for me all humans who live the same, there is no difference in my perspective" Edward said in response to all questions Haruna,
Haruna was a little pleased to hear the words that were thrown from Edward's mouth,
"Edward if I may know what your dream is..?" Haruna, said,
"My dream.. hhhmmm.. is quite simple, just want to live happily with the people I love... if you.?" Edward asked Haruna's dream,
"Oh. If I, my dream of becoming a hero, sounds pretty silly right, hahh... I thought my dream was too high to be a heroine and make history" Haruna told Edward,
"No dream is too high to achieve, only the intention is too low to step up, making a dream a motivation to live better, he said, and experiences that will teach you to be stronger" said Edward motivated Haruna to keep the spirit of achieving her dreams,
"Yes.. Edward, thank you very much for tonight, I want to go to the tent first well I've started drowsiness" said Haruna and soon died Edward alone, Edward was alone,
Edward just nodded his head to allow Haruna to go to bed first,
The moonlight illuminated the figure of Edward who was sitting daydreaming looking at the stars in the night sky, the wind blew flying a few strands of Edward's hair, clearly sadness was adrift in Edward's face, Edward, sadness if she wants to be on her own who is not on earth anymore, she just regretted not having time to return the goodwill to the nurses who have been caring for her in the orphanage,
If time could be reworked, there would never be wasted time,
Edward took the guitar in his inventory that he had bought in the market system,
Excerpt after quote Edward plays, his fingers are dancing on the strings of the guitar, singing melodies that melodious and heart-wrenching, Edward string the sad words that are in his mind,
"In the cold of the night, not knowing how much I think of you, only the darkness of the night always accompanies me, the wind brings all my heartbreak, bring my dreams with her, bring my dreams with her, and let the moon shine on my lonely night.."
