The Traitor: Relic War
Chp. 60. Langeweile and Traurigkeit

Nightfall

Nipotia Kingdom

"It's so boring..." Zen played a small fire on his fingertips while staring out the window where from the top floor of the inn he could see people passing by with the bright lights of the city.

There was nothing he could do but wait for tomorrow to come and even though the night should have gone in late but he did not feel sleepy or tired at all, for this reason, he became unable to sleep.

"Well at least today I've become rich, gambling is indeed a lot of fun... No wonder so many are addicted to it..." He muttered while thinking about the events of today where he managed to win against Cald in a big bet that made him a profit.

Zen spun around and walked towards the exit and immediately descended down, gathering among the small group group that was on the lower floor of the inn and fusing themselves, hiding among them.

Zen suspected that most of them were hunters of the Magische Kingdom and now they are gathering for the distribution of results or other affairs.

The conclusion came only from looking at their killer-like appearance with a large, burly body and equally large weapons.

With a long sigh in the middle of the crowded people of this big body Zen just grabbed onto a small glass in front of him then drank a liquid that tasted sweet sour when touching his tongue and he had no idea what the drink was, but he liked it enough.

"You two don't joke... There can't be a Strum-level Magische in the forest..."

Sreks...

"What if you two have fun with us..." The group of men who were far enough behind Zen pulled the hand of one of the women who looked the same age as Zen then forced to come with him.

"Oy oy, you're all what you're doing... Stop that... What is your attitude as Magische hunters..." A wise and authoritative voice stopped the crowd and made them release the hands of the two girls.

"Currently, this guy is coming again... Friends, we're leaving... Don't deal with him..." Seeing the arrival of a middle-aged figure with a stature that might be smaller than them the person earlier started to step aside and leave just like that.

"As Magische hunters they should have more respect for women... You guys okay?" He then threw a question at her spontaneously.

"Ah well, thank you for helping, honestly they are very troublesome..." Said the woman with the hemp-colored hair whose hands were drawn earlier.

"No problem... What business is there until you can be like that..." He asked while raising his palm, asking them not to feel hesitant towards him.

"true too... We asked for their help to repel the Magische Level strum Ameise who was making a nest in the forest..." Quickly answered the other girl then with a panicked face she immediately explained everything she knew.

"Are you sure what you saw was Ameise in the woods... You guys didn't look wrong..." After hearing the explanation from the woman with brown ponytail hair, the big-bodied man became increasingly curious.

"We are so sure... They attacked our family train and now the guards are holding them while we both seek help..."

"Why say it now... That's so bad... We need to get over there and help your family..." The man believed and moved frantically towards the exit where his steps were followed by the two girls.

Bruck...

Just standing from where he was sitting, Zen now hit a man who was walking in a hurry and made the glass he was holding fell just like that.

"Ahh, that's fucking shit..." He complained while picking up the dropped glass and then stood up straight back to look behind the person who hit him.

"Please watch your way, sir... There's a lot of people here so don't walk fast..." He said without fear, he really did not know who was in front of him and did not want to know.

"Sorry young man... I'm in a hurry, there's a serious situation..." His words then just passed.

"Although you must not run among this large crowd of people..." Little Zen said when the man left him again with quick steps followed by two other women.

The same time

Terria Kingdom's.

This was the first night that the warriors would go through without Zen present, some of them regrouped in Luna's room together with Elize.

Night with clear skies and breezy winds that enter through the window makes the atmosphere in the room covered by the air is quite cold and silent.

Everyone returned to the room without the slightest bit of conversation and only gathered to let their thoughts run amok inside their heads.

Elize who hid her cries behind the pillow she held, Luna who sat while looking at her sister on the edge of the bed, Hana, Rika, Haru who was sitting not far from Shin, Iori, and Aki several times exchanged views, they knew that not only was Elize still feeling sad but there was also Nania somewhere in the palace who was crying sobbing and they believed it.

"Sister Elize... Better Brother get some rest now... I'm sure you'll feel a lot better when you wake up..." Luna opened her voice when she felt that the atmosphere was getting more unpleasant.

But from the words that he said did not get any response from Elize who just kept hiding her face.

"Sister Elize..." Luna climbed closer towards Elize then touched her shoulder.

"Uwahhhh!!!" Elize threw her pillow then made Luna's shoulder as a place for her to cry out very loudly.

"It's happening again... Why does this always happen... What really happened..." He said with a lot of effort to clarify his words.

"Here you are, brother, don't think it's not good for you..." Luna stroked the back of Elize to calm her down.

"Why did Zen do that... Why did he say that when we met later we would become enemies, why did he say as if he were going to be separated for good... I don't want that... Not at all... If I can choose, I don't want to meet him... Or maybe I wish I hadn't met her..." With a restrained cry, he poured out all his feelings on everyone present.

"Sister Elize... Had enough... I'm sure all this will become clear later, brother just need to be patient and wait..." As if holding back from crying, Luna continued to rub Elize's back stronger.

Until finally there was no more crying and finally Elize fell asleep in Luna's arms after crying for a long time.

"Thank God Elize is asleep... I'm going to sleep with him tonight... So you can leave us..." Luna said to Iori and the others.

They answered with a nod and then walked out of the room, then closed the door and left Luna and Elize who were about to rest.

"Hey. what are you going to do..." Slowly Iori who was standing in front of the room door and was at the very back, she asked Shin, Rika, Aki, Haru Dan Hana who was in front.

"I don't know, I don't know, it's just that after seeing Princess Elize's cry... I hope this day ends soon and she gets better soon..." Rika replied with a smug face, putting her hand in front of her chest as if she was praying.

"Anyone would not believe that Zen did all that... But he admitted it... Moreover, his highness had already issued a Zen hunting order... Even the degree of difficulty was far from the Magische level of Katastrophe..." Shin spoke he instantly recalled all the events in the palace earlier.

"Well, I'm sure there's a lot hunting him... But that's not what you need to worry about now... We can leave that to the decision of tomorrow's meeting... I hope everything goes well... Because soon Relic War will happen, and if Zen is on the enemy's side then we will all have trouble..."

"Well, you're right..." The conversation ended and everyone returned to their respective rooms after giving a gesture at the last sentence, some immediately fell asleep but a few more could not rest at all as their minds continued to rage.

Think about what's going to happen for them.
