The Newbie Is Too Strong's
81. Luca and Lia in the Kingdom of Indiya
At that time the twilight of local game time, Luca finally arrived at the portal of the Indiya Kingdom's ibokota square, Neves No Aliehs, where his agreement with Lia. Luca looked around. Apparently, Lia had been there first.
“Sorry, I'm late yes, Lia.” Luca immediately headed towards Lia with a look of guilt.
“No. Not at all, Luca. I was too fast until.” Lia tried to avoid that it was nothing.
Then the lovey dovey chat that usually occurs between friendly couples also happens for a moment between the two of them.
They are today traveling together in the Indiya Kingdom located far southeast of the continent which borders directly with the Melodia Kingdom and the Doremi Kingdom on the grounds of carrying out a joint quest received by Luca from his uncle, Heisels.
However, of course the intention of their arrival was far from the mission. This is because the Indiya Kingdom is famous for their delicious and exotic seafood that can only be found in the area.
Lia looked at the ceiling with fun.
“Wah, look at Luca! Clothes of the NPCs. It really looks different.” Lia looked enthusiastic.
Lia seemed interested in the clothes of the NPCs in the kingdom that were completely different from other kingdoms. The NPCs wore scarf-like clothes in bright colors with no seams wrapped around their bodies.
“By the way, is this your first time here, Lia?” The curious Luca asked Lia.
Lia replied by shaking her head, “Hmm. About a few days after the opening of the game, Medina took me for a walk here. But still, seeing this exotic scenery once again so makes me feel amazed.”
Hearing Lia's reply which was filled with that gesture of happiness, a meaningful knotty smile emerged from behind the little young man's lips. She was grateful to choose the most beautiful place on the continent according to her it was for their date.
Yes, the plain young man has learned quite a bit about the meaning of dating.
Without lingering, they immediately visited one of the food stalls in the area to try exotic seafood dishes typical of the Kingdom of Indiya.
The seafood looks similar to a lobster in the real world. It's just that the appearance of the three eyes of the cooked sea creature, as well as its strange winding antennae and also the pattern of the outer shell in the area around its stomach, clearly indicates it is different from lobster. It was one of the typical sea monsters that often appeared in the waters of the Indiya Kingdom called Dhaki-dhaki.
Although the shape looks strange, the dish is ten times as delicious as lobsters in the real world. As soon as the shell breaks, the delicious aroma of honey mixed with fresh tomatoes begins to smell appetizing. Once bitten, the typical nuances of seafood meat immediately felt. Water mixed with fat easily flows through each bite filled with glutamine which brings a very tantalizing aroma feel.
How not the bodies of Luca and Lia instantly melted as soon as they enjoyed the dish.
Unfortunately, the avatar's body mechanism was not much different from the original body. After two or three dishes of enjoying food, the body will immediately respond to satiety. As a result, they can no longer taste exotic dishes typical of other Indiya Kingdom.
After enjoying the culinary, they went around enjoying the typical medieval scenery that is quite unique that is no less enchanting around the royal capital.
“Tutu tui tui..”
Instantly their attention was drawn to the flute music played by one of the female handlers who appeared to be in control of a cobra-like animal, dancing by winding his body following the chanting of the master music that is very aesthetic to the eye.
Initially, both Lia and Luca, were equally interested in watching the show of the female handler. However, when Lia glanced towards Luca, it seemed that Luca's expression on seeing him changed. Luca seemed to be very interested in the poke of the female handler who showed her stomach area for free.
Luca also saw her waving at the female handler and then he saw the female handler respond to her by blinking her eyes flirtatiously.
Lia eventually became jealous of it and was immediately about to rush away from the place. However, it was immediately intercepted by Luca.
“What's up, Lia? You're not feeling well?”
“The female handler is definitely prettier than me so Luca looked at her with enthusiasm.”
Luca only responded with a gentle smile. Luca then replied, “The female handler was Kak Keporin who was undercover, you know, Lia. I don't know what he's doing here either, but since he's undercover, he must be on a mission as well. I waved just to greet her as a good sister, nothing more.”
Hearing Luca's explanation, Lia's mood immediately improved for a while, but in the end she again sulked again, “Luca must be very close to Keporin's sister to the extent that even with the appearance of it, so, Luca can still recognize him.”
“Yeah, it's because my instincts alone are sharp. How can you say it, everyone has certain characteristics so that even though his appearance is different, his body language, his aroma, his habits, will not change so easily that I can quickly recognize people in disguise.”
“Aroma?” Lia's gaze turned a little sharp to hear Luca say such an easily misinterpreted word.
“Well the point is, my senses as an assassin are sharp enough that the brilliant disguise of Keporin's sister alone will not be able to fool me.”
Lia still seemed to be twitching her lips for a moment looking jealous. After all, Luca seemed too close to the lady named Keporin.
But when he thought again, Keporin was just one of the game's characters. He was none other than an NPC. Why should he be jealous of her?
After thinking that, his expression brightened again and he immediately grabbed Luca's right arm back to hold him with pleasure.
Luca and Lia went back for a walk in a happy mood around the capital of the Indiya Kingdom which was full of interesting scenery.
But even a bright light is visible from the beach. Apparently, it was a group of small sea creatures like plankton that emitted a white light that shone through his body. The sheer number of them on the surface of the sea today also caused the light to gather and eventually become bright enough to dazzle the eyes.
That was the mission that Luca and Lia had received that was the reason why they had come to that place.
Every about 2 times a year in that place, namely in the seasons where the moonlight shines brighter, brighter, then the small glowing creatures will respond by appearing on the surface of the sea while emitting their bright rays.
It doesn't matter if you just get there. It's just that, just as the rays hypnotize other sea creatures, sea-level creatures that are usually tame will run wild and also rise to the surface and then to the mainland to cause chaos.
All kinds of sea creatures, ranging from small kraken, something similar to crabs, and all kinds of other small monsters began to come scattering the beach around. Players begin their mission to prevent the sea creatures from causing damage to the land. Luca and Lia are also among them.
Shortly after that, the second wave came. This time the sea creatures with a larger size.
“Plalalalar.”
A dolphin-like creature, but with a slightly creepy look with a jet black horn and skin pattern on the top of his head that is like the skin of a godzila monster, then emerged from the waters and made Lia surprised.
“Akkkkh! Hiyat!”
Panicked, Lia was mindlessly about to attack the sea creature.
“Lia, don't attack!”
However, Luca soon reaches out to the frightened Lia and prevents her from attacking the creature.
“This creature is called Doro-doro, a kind of guardian of this beach. He's not dangerous. Unlike the other creatures, he was not affected by the hypnotism of the plankton. Instead they often help us overcome the sea creatures that wander once the hypnotic bright light cycle of the plankton arrives. View.”
Luca calms Lia down while pointing towards one of the sea creatures he calls the Doro-doro.
Lia was finally able to see clearly how the Doro-doro actually prevented the other sea creatures who lost control of their consciousness to go to land.
