THE NAVEL OF THE BLACK VALLEY
Episode 43's. Stopped at the intersection.

After the departure of the Earth God, we immediately prepared ourselves to make the journey towards the passage of justice. We tidy up all the combat tools, so that not a single item is left in the hut. Today it seems that Emperor Suji is rediscovering his spirit of life, his face so shining that he will be the leader in the mission of the hall of justice.

I immediately approached Emperor Suji.

"Are you ready?" I asked the emperor who was very fair.

"It seems, today I am very excited to travel down the aisle of justice. Especially at my age that had begun to twilight, I still had the opportunity to lead in combat missions. The award that was pinned on my chest, seemed to be a very meaningful award. You better get ready soon, so we don't get too late for justice." He spoke with an occasional look at the rewards given by the Earth God.

"alright.. Suji Emperor. Looks like I'm ready, can we start leaving now?" The Emperor Suji.

Right now, he smiled then he gradually left me and walked over to Kenzi. Emperor Suji was very attentive to his favorite son. Although Prince Kenzi was an adult, Emperor Suji always treated Prince Kenzi like a child.

"My handsome son, look at your shirt this is not neat. Comeoverhere.. I'm trying to fix the way you dress." Said Emperor Suji with a tidying shirt, which was worn by prince Kenzi.

"Dad.. Don't treat me like a kid, I'm a grown man. Already, let me tidy up myself. Thanks in advance." Kenzi's words of surprise as he refused. Maybe she's embarrassed because I'm always watching her. In the corner of the hut, it looks like the teacher is tidying up the guide books. It seemed, the teacher looked a little busy. I tried to help her, I approached the teacher and I grabbed the scattered books.

"Teacher, these are the books. I've helped you tidy up these guidebooks." I said to the teacher.

"Thank you, Yuka." He said with a smile, then we all prepared to continue our journey to the hallway of justice.

"You guys, are you ready?" Ask Emperor Suji.

"We're all ready." We cried out to the three of us, saying Emperor Suji.

"All right, let's go." Said the current Emperor Suji. We walked out of the Haisa Desert. There are so many memories contained in this desert, one by one the prospective participants get a knight title while here. Maybe someday, I can tell my experiences to my descendants about the Haisa Desert. We walked through a very dense forest, we were careful in stepping, while we did not want to be trapped in this thick forest device. Our move accelerated because we didn't want too much night to be in this dark forest. Now it has begun to look there is a spring at the end there, a small river that has very clear water.

"Emperor Suji, at the end of the forest there. There is a very clear river, look.. Should we rest there?" I asked the current Emperor Suji.

"Yes, it's dad. The river is so clear, it looks like we can eat by the river." From Prince Kenzi at the moment. The Emperor nodded, as he agreed to what we proposed.

"Today, we brought a lot of food. Yuka, we have prepared a lot of food." The cry of the royal teacher to all of us. He walked by holding a tree branch, using the branch to make sure the road was safe. We were eager to walk until we came to a clear river. The view was so beautiful when we passed through the thick forest. Our journey was quite far away, because the horse carriage could not possibly take us into this dense forest. We were so exhausted, I finally took the initiative to take the clear water in the river for us to drink. I tried to get closer, to the River, and then I took a bottle of water from the river.

"Yes, Yuka. It seems, this water can be directly us sip. He cried to me, Kenzi stroked the horses while giving affection. Finally, we sat on the rocks by the river. We enjoyed the food we brought, the weather here was very cold. So contrasted with the weather when we were in the Haisa Desert.

"Until this moment, it's still a mystery. Why is there a desert opposite the forest, even a forest that has a river as clear as this." Said Emperor Sujii by occasionally chewing his food.

"Yes, Emperor. There seems to be no sign of life. As we know, in the dense forest there must be a beast but in the border forest of the Haisa Desert, there are no beasts at all." The Exclaim of the Suji Kingdom Master. We immediately finished the food quickly because it looks like, soon the afternoon will arrive.

"Have you finished your meal?" Ask from the current Emperor Suji. He watched us one by one.

"We are ready, to continue the journey back to the emperor." Said Royal Master Suji, but wait for the Emperor. Here it looks, after we pass through the dense forest we will meet a clear river and then across this river we will find a crossroads. Wait for me, I'm checking inside the guidebook. I don't want us to get lost." Speak to the royal master by opening the guidebook. We waited a while because the travel map was only in the guidebook. Not long after, the royal teacher said.

"Yes, Emperor Suji. It seems, this crossroads is a trap to outwit us. We should be able to get into the next stage, before we meet the crossroads. We have to make sure that the path taken is a path that has a star symbol in one corner of the tree that is there." Say the royal teacher by explaining the contents in the guidebook.

"Emh, good teacher. Looks like we should be careful here, maybe only I can help to determine the path since only pure knights can find the symbol." I said to the Suji Kingdom teacher. We crossed a very clear river and it is true that after this river we passed there were two road signs that seemed to mislead us.

"It seems, these two intersections are meant in the guidebook." I say to all the participants of the battle.

"Yes, Yuka. It's the intersection.." Said the Suji Kingdom Master. I tried to observe the surroundings, I tried to see where the symbol was. I watched carefully, not wanting a single tree to be missed by me. I walked to the left, but my feeling seemed to be not good to see this road. I looked to the right of the road. I took a few steps to get to the trees around me. There was one tree that caught my attention, it was a very large tree but it had no leaves at all. I tried to circle around this one big tree, I suddenly saw a glint of light that was so blinding to the eyes behind the big tree that I was currently touching.

"Oh, what is this light? Help me, come here!" I told the whole battle.

"Yuka, you managed to find that symbol. Shouted from Kenzi who was currently surprising me.

"Certainly that?" I said, not believing what I was doing.

"Good work, good boy." Said the current Emperor Suji by patting my shoulder.

"Now that we have found the way, we shall proceed to the passage of justice." Exclamation from the teacher of the Suji Kingdom coach. We walked down the path we chose.
