The Thousand Year Dynasty
14. Suspicion and Truth
Tomorrow morning. The three Fire Star members were planning to return to the city of Albas.
"Mr Nata, Mr. Aksa" Axel started the conversation while they were in the living room of the Couran house. To prepare.
"Yes Mr Axel?" Tanya Nata was curious.
While Axel just threw a crystal baby as big as a thumb to Nata.
"Is this Mr Axel?" Nata asked after catching him.
"That's the Hexe Stone" Axel replied.
"Hexe Rock?"
"Right, the stone resonated at the flow of the Soul. And it will radiate a spectrum of light based on the stream of Souls that resonates with it" once again Ende took over to explain.
"Oh, so is this crystal used to detect the presence of Soul flow?" Tanya Nata made sure.
"Let me see Nat" Aksa took the crystal from Nata and brought it closer to her eyes to observe more clearly, "How does it work?" Ask later.
"Right, we used it to measure the flow of Souls. The stone will give off a different color depending on who touches it" Axel said.
"And even when it comes into contact with plants and animals long enough, the stone will shine even if it is a little dim" Ende added in a doubtful voice as he did not see the crystal lit up as Aksa held it now.
Hearing this, Nata immediately understood Axel's intention to give the crystal stone to him.
"Oh, did Mr Axel do this to ascertain who we really are?" Tanya Nata then without further ado.
"True Mr. Nata. So who are you two?" Axel replied without further ado.
It seemed that everyone in the place was surprised Axel asked that straightforwardly.
"Awhile I don't understand what Nat means?" Sela Aksa represents the rest of the people in that place.
"This Mr. Axel must have suspicions about our abnormal behavior in response to everything. And surely he participated in this village also because to ascertain who we really are" explained Nata to Aksa as well as guessing Axel's true intentions.
"It's like that. I'm sorry I didn't mean it badly, but I have a feeling that you two are not just young people from outside this land"
"Your intuition is very sharp" said Nata who also praised Axel.
"Well, if it's this way, I'll tell you the truth. I am the messenger of the gods" Aksa sidelines later.
"Do you still not understand the meaning of the Hexe stone is Lord Aksa? The stone does not shine at all when you touch it. That means you guys have no Soul flow at all. And how could the god messenger not have magic at all?" this time the sewot-looking Ende heard the original speech from Aksa.
"The god's mouth must not be Mainstream" Aksa replied with an eye not thanking Ende.
"I guess if you're all curious about us, I'll tell you. But there is no guarantee that you will believe it" replied Nata then who felt this group of Fire Stars were good people and could trust him.
Then Nata started telling stories.
-
"You're both from another world?" It sounded Margaret could not believe it, as soon as they heard the story from Nata.
"Sounds absurd, right?"
"So you're both messengers of the Oracle? I thought you weren't just an ordinary Yllgarian" Ende told Lily, not caring that Nata and Aksa were from another world.
Not only were the three members of the Fire Star group shocked, but Couran and Ellian who also did not know about who Lily and Val were actually were shocked.
"REally?!"
Lily only smiled slightly wryly, while Val put on a lazy face staring at Aksa.
"Are you really the White Lightning?!"
"I'm just an ordinary Yllgarian named Lily, Miss Ende"
"Hey, if you already know that he's a war hero, why do you always talk disrespectfully to Miss Lily and Mr Val?" Ende looks sewot against Nata and Aksa.
"That's not a problem. Because we both have sworn allegiance to them, so by status they are our masters" Lily replied later.
"Ap-Sum-Oath faithful? You two? To these two young men?" Seemed Ende did not want to accept the explanation from Lily that seemed unreasonable for him.
"You heard Miss Ende? I am the messenger of the gods" Aksa put on an overbearing face that looked annoying to Ende.
"It looks like you're both really from another world" said Margaret, who seemed to be trying to believe what she had just heard.
"Then what was the purpose of you coming here?" Axel added with questions because he felt the feeling that this group of people to the village of Baltra certainly not just to meet their old friends.
Nata fell silent at Axel's question, then took a deep breath. "It's going to be more and more absurd to tell" Nata later said.
"I don't think there will be anything that will surprise us and disbelieve again, after hearing your story"
"I doubt it"
-
"What?!" Margaret, Axel, and Ende all shouted at the same time, while Nata just put on his face as if to say, 'what I said', after hearing Nata's story about his purpose in this Baltra village.
"You asked the crown princess Elbrasta to build the dead land?" Ende asked but sounded angry.
"It's crazy, and are you guys really gonna do it?" Margaret asked Nata and Aksa with a nod of the head simultaneously.
"And are you all here to help them?" Ask Margaret again this time to the person in the room.
"really. I know for a fact that you all think we are all insane, but that's because the three of you don't know how the two of them are. I don't think building a dead land is a hard thing for them" Couran replied this time.
"Is that really so?"
"Hard to believe"
-
And in the end Margaret, Axel, and Ende had to accept and believe all these absurd stories. They informed Nata and Aksa's entourage that they were in the city of Albas when Nata and Aksa's entourage needed their help.
And in the afternoon after that they decided to return to the city of Albas, while the next day the group of Aksa and Nata also went to their respective destinations as planned.
Aksa in his carriage with Lily, Couran, and Loujze moved westward to the dead land of Pharos. Nata, Val, Deuxter, and Huebert in Couran's chariot headed east to the city of Esta where the East Star was.
