The Monsters!
15. Temporal

Diego nodded in agreement, however he also needed to ask the village chief for permission, let alone Diego intend to stay in the village a little longer.

"Alright, let's head for the village chief!" Said Diego immediately carrying a sword on his back.

"Hm! But you better leave your sword alone, just calm down the village is perfectly safe!"

Diego says he immediately put his sword down, and he believes what Ellen says. Although it felt a little strange to part with his sword, considering Diego's previous life was full of danger.

While walking towards the village head, Ellen did not forget to stop for a moment at a small bakery. He bought two for him and Diego.

"Eat, after I'll have better food!" Ellen

"Thank you, I'm sorry to bother you so much..."

"Calm down, you're new anyway, and I know how you've been outside." He looked at Diego's face

But before returning to continue the journey, Ellen invited Diego in a store to tidy up Diego's appearance that looks so unkempt.

"What are we gonna do?" Ask Diego

"Tidy up your appearance for the better, later you can be considered a villain with this appearance." Ellen stared at Diego's long, beardy face

"Ah, fine then"

Diego resigned and immediately entered, inside there is a woman who will begin to tidy up the appearance of Diego, he smiled kindly welcome the man in front of him.

"Have you brought a husband?" The woman's temptation was on Ellen

"Don't get too far into your thinking, I'm just helping her!" Ellen turned her face away

The woman just smiled, she immediately began her work, starting from cutting Diego's hair that was very long, then followed by removing Diego's beard and mustache.

Almost twenty minutes, while Ellen was just sitting in a chair provided while waiting for Diego to finish.

The woman came out of a room, wiping the sweat on her face with a sweet smile

"Is it done?" Ask Ellen

"Yes, and he's so handsome!" Say the woman while drinking a glass of water

Diego came out from behind the curtain which made Ellen pause for a moment, what Ellen saw this time was so different from what she had seen before.

Even after Diego cleaned all the fur on his face, he looked much younger and better than before. Which even his previous appearance looked like a villain.

"Is there anything strange?" Diego asked to see Ellen silent

"Eh! No, well we better get going!" Ellen's speech

Ellen immediately walked out first, after she was done with the pay and was followed up with Diego who soon came out

***

In the courtyard of the house that looks beautiful, Diego is so amazed by the architecture of the building and the courtyard that looks so beautiful in his eyes.

"Let's go see the village chief." Take Ellen

The two immediately walked over, but paused for a moment in front of the two guards. Ellen tells the guards about Diego who wants to stay in the village for a while

"Alright, the village chief is inside" said the guard

"The village head is in his room, you can enter" the assistant said politely and kindly

Diego and Ellen immediately entered, where an old woman was sitting at her desk. His hand held a pen, and his eyes seemed friendly to welcome the arrival of the two.

"Good day, Mrs Bell" Ellen gave her greetings

The woman smiled kindly as well as allowing the two to sit down, plus her gaze was slightly surprised when she saw the big tall man beside Ellen.

"Have you come here to talk about your marriage, Ellen?" Bell asked with a smile

"No! Not that, the reason I'm here to ask for permission, is the man beside me." Ellen said, staring at Diego

"My name is Diego Costa, Madam." Said Diego

"Hm! So you want to stay in the village for a while? Where are you from?" Ask Bell again

"He lost his home in the war, Miss Bell." Obviously Ellen before Diego

"G ... What a poor man, I understand. Then you can stay for a while."

"Thank you Madam!" Glad Diego smiled

"By the way, are you a knight?" Tanya Bell who saw Diego's burly posture

"No, what's wrong, madam?"

"I thought you were a knight, because the last few days of the village were not safe." Obviously Bell

"not safe? Did something happen?" Ask Bell

"Yes, the last few days at the village border always there was an attack, plus it was done by several groups of emissaries"

"Hm ... Then I can take care of it for you" said Diego, to Ellen and Bell's surprise

"Diego! It was dangerous, let alone the messengers were the ones who had obtained the blessings of the god of darkness!" Ellen

"Blessings? Isn't that getting the blessings of only the heroes?" Ask Diego back

"Not only heroes, but heroes can also get blessings"

Diego was silent for a moment to digest the intentions of Bell and Ellen, whereas Diego thought only the heroes who get blessings, apparently in addition to heroes can also.

"As you know, the god of darkness and the god of light have always fought. The two fight to seize and rule the world under their rule. The god of light will rule the world with virtue and happiness, but the God of darkness is the opposite" Bell said with a serious look

"The name of it is not as simple as it sounds, because the Gods of darkness use people as pawns, even the monsters themselves are mostly from the Gods of darkness. And to prevent that the Gods of light tried to fight back, but being outnumbered it made the God of light a tribulation"

Bell immediately stood up and walked to the bookshelf behind him, picked it up and picked it up, and sat down to show Diego something.

"Because the outnumbered God of light decided to use humans, it was certainly to increase their strength. And surely the humans are willing to fight on the side of the God of light, however..."

Ellen and Bell looked cute, as if the story was the thing they least wanted to hear

"What's wrong?" Ask Diego

"A creature from another world!"
