The Story Of Jammetaria
CHAPTER 04 - Second Meeting
Two days later…
It was still very early in the forest, the scenery was a little dark and there was still a little sunlight that managed to penetrate the dense foliage, but the birds had started to chirp. the thin fog and morning dew that was stepped on further added to the cool and calm atmosphere in this forest.
“Are you sure Hen, about this ?.”
“ya of course.”
“but what if he doesn't want ?”
“ya we'll see later.”
the two estranged sisters walked back into the forest for a certain purpose. Until they reached the depths of the forest, they saw a neat wooden house with a chimney, behind which there was a river and a large spinning waterwheel endlessly connected into the house.
“that's it, looks like we've arrived.”
The day before when they arrived at the capital they both searched for information about Audrey out of curiosity, and it was not as difficult as one might think, even before mentioning her name they had gotten her address. at first they only asked about “A young witch who sells Bakso”. Fortunately, the person asked was an acquaintance of Audrey and she voluntarily gave the address.
*****
In her room full of piles of books Audrey was still asleep, it seemed like she had been reading all night yesterday, even some books were still scattered on her bed. But it is not a problem anyway today he is planning for a holiday. While he was soundly asleep suddenly the bell on his door rang, which signified the arrival of guests.
Although this actually happens very rarely. Who is the person who visited the house of the witch who lived alone in the middle of the forest while in the capital itself there are many fun things to do.
He had to get out of bed, wash his face and welcome guests who came to his house even though wearing a hat became the main thing. he never once showed his strange hair to others, except to those closest to him who had seen it, even after that the person never saw him again or the worst made him forget forcibly.
"Yes who.." Audrey opened the door somewhat yawned as there was still a slight sense of coughing.
"Yo. We'll see you again"
"You two...?"
Woaha.so this is the figure of a real witch, even though at home wearing a t-shirt was also a hat that was conical still used. What Hendry was thinking right after the door opened and saw the newly woken Audrey.
"Hmmmm..." They both smiled broadly at Audrey
"Well, we'll meet again someday…."
"But it's only been two days, my God…." Audrey patted her eel hard .
"So what do you need ?"
“Emmm ano... there is actually something we should talk to you about.”
“Owhh. ok yes just log in first.”
Audrey let them in and they all sat in a living room by the door with the big window open, looking pretty neat but a little dusty as it was almost never used.
While drinking tea they all chatter change lives and over time become familiar, they seem to have known for a long time even though this is actually their second meeting. From there Audrey knew that the two of them were not from this city, but since a few months ago they had been traveling from city to city, looking for one member to join their party in order to officially register in the guild.
Because there is a rule that requires to make a party of at least 3 people before being able to officially join the guild.The rule is intended because being an adventurer is a dangerous job, they can just deal with Bandits, bandits, Villains, or monsters in this country, even death can occur.
Hendry's goal of becoming an adventurer himself was that he wanted to be strong and he had the ambition to become a royal knight. and for selection to become a royal knight himself was at least a Senior B ranked adventurer or higher.
But the purpose of Eliana itself is actually quite simple. He only joined, even so he still has a mandate from his parents to look after the only brother he has. That way they both got the blessing of their parents to be adventurous, and thus their parents can relax at home because both “loads of family” already have their own life goals.
The capital to travel for the sake of recruiting these members is certainly mostly funded by both parents, but over time it is certainly getting thin. Hence they both also attempted to make money during the journey such as collecting medicinal herbs or hunting weak animals or monsters and selling them to the guild.
Although they have not been officially registered in the guild, anyone can sell catch or hunted goods even though the price is lower than those who have been officially incorporated into the guild, but at least enough to eat, stay, and travel.
They do this also solely to find out if there are other people who can be recruited into their party, but so far the results are nil.
Not feel the time goes faster, until noon was not felt. The day was getting late and the two of them immediately parted.they rushed home happily to the inn in the capital, after they reached the inner city gate tiredly they then regained their senses, after which they came to a realization, like there's something important that they both forgot.
“Ah shit..” Henry started to panic.
“What's Hen ?” Eliana was still confused and had not noticed it.
“we forgot.... we completely forgot..... all the pleasant conversations made me forget....”.
“hemmm..emang ap.
“AAAAAAAAAAAA Eliana realized what they had forgotten and started to panic.
“From everything we talked about just now, why can it be just that we forget about ?”
“The most important thing that has been our goal so far.. why can you forget !!!”
Actually, the purpose of both of them coming to Audrey's house this morning was none other than wanting to invite her to join the party, seeing that she was a good and powerful witch. on the other hand they have a feeling that Audrey wants to join them but like there is an obstacle that prevents it from happening and it is true.
After a while they finally rose from overwhelming disappointment and walked back to the inn like people willing to die.
“Already Hen, there is still tomorrow.”
“iya... bener kak important we still have not given up.”.
*****
Next day.
Just like yesterday today the two brothers returned to visit Audrey's house, but there was something they did not expect before her. they had knocked on the door for half an hour but there was no response.
“Kak... Audrey the Witch is right?”
(His brother nodded)
“Also a Trader, correct ?”
(His brother nodded twice)
“Yesterday he took off right ?”
(His brother nodded three times)
“Means now ..”
Her brother almost nodded four times, but he finally realized something and shouted.
“MEANS NOW HE IS NOT AT HOME BENARRR??”
Her sister nodded but suddenly her brother's fist landed on top of her head and made her bang.
“Why not say from earlier..”
The two of them immediately returned to the capital, then based on the information the two of them met Audrey where they should be.
“Ah that's it...”
“Finally... now we can express our true intentions.”.
