I walked over the winding path, directing my steps
towards the plateau that looks beautiful and green in the distance. Sunshine
it shone brightly in the bright blue sky, emitting a bandaging warmth
my body.
This path climbs steeply, but the scenery around me more and more stunning every
the steps I took. Arin walks behind me, he bends his body, he,
his face looked a little tired and occasionally heard his heavy breathing.
“Seva... what is still far away?” his voice sounded soft, carried by the cold wind of the plateau.
I stopped for a moment and looked at him. “You can't see? Plain
his height has been seen in front there,” I said, trying to encourage Arin.
We continue to follow the uphill path, step by step, permeating the beauty
the highlands are getting closer. The fragrant aroma of fresh foliage is refreshing
our trip, and the coolness of the highland winds bring that coolness
delightful. We passed through shady trees dancing in the wind.
Arin kept trying to follow my steps, but it was clear that she was a little overwhelmed
with this journey. Sweat ran down his face, and his breathing began
it sounds faster. I decided to give it a moment to
repose.
"Let's sit down for a while, Arin," I said, patting Arin's shoulder gently. Our
find a large rock on the side of the path and sit under a tree. Outlooks
we were wide open to a beautiful plateau, a dazzling expanse of green, and,
and the towering hills in the distance.
I looked at Arin who was regulating her breathing, in my mind why this girl
always follow me, is it because I saved him or maybe he did too
feel a strong bond with me?
“Arin, we have arrived in Warenburg. Why do you always follow me?” my many. Arin
still seems to be regulating his breathing. “We should choose each other's path,”
my continue.
Arin was silent for a moment, he kept his head down. Arin bit
her lips, seemed to be holding back the words that wanted to come out of her mouth.
“Alright, I won't force you to tell a story.” I also stood up to prepare
continue journey. “Come,” my word to Arin.
As I walked, Arin suddenly grabbed my back shirt. “I...” Arin voiced however
bated. “I... I don't want to be alone anymore.” I can feel his voice
shakes when you say that.
Looking at Arin who was still bowing her head, I smiled.
I gently rubbed his head. "I'm sorry, I've asked like
that's. Take it easy, I'll always be by your side" I said sincerely.
Arin slowly looked at my face, a warm smile adorning
her face. “Thank you, Seva,” he said in a low voice.
We both walked back, towards the plateau
Whirlwinds. The sky was still bright, but now Arin looked much more.
After a while, we arrived at the Whirlwind plateau
the amazing. I took out the adventurer manual from my pocket and searched
information about Windhill Flower, the herbs we were looking for. Inside
it is written that this plant grows near a hidden water source
among the hills.
We also started our search. Arin seems to be used to it
in search of traces of this herbal plant. We passed through the valley and the forest,
following the clear stream, and finally, we found a water
the plunge is surrounded by gurgling tree leaves and a distinctive aroma of plants
herbs.
In the middle of that water source, we found the Windhill Flower
the beautiful spring. This small plant has white flower petals with edges
soft blue color. We were both fascinated by her beauty and excited
collecting these plants.
“Seva, you think we should collect how many plants
this?” arin asked, his eyes twinkling with enthusiasm.
I noticed the growing beauty of Windhill Flower
with lush around the waterfall. There are no clear leads on the sheet
mission how many of these herbs should we bring back to the adventurer guild. “Fine,
we brought ten stalks only.” My advice to Arin.
Arin made an okay mark on his hand and said. “I
will take on the river's lips, you take that over there.”
the thumbs sign agreed, the two of us then started picking the Windhill Flower with
be careful, making sure we don't damage the plants so they can grow
back in the future.
After a while, I managed to collect five
Windhill Flowers. When I looked at Arin, he looked troubled . “Arin, <TAG1>,
you okay?” manyworry.
He shook his head, but still smiled.
"There's one more thing left" he said with a gasp of breath. "Either
why is this one so hard to pull out."
Arin kept trying to pull the plant. Suddenly, the ground
the place where Arin was standing started to tremble.
“Arin! Release the plant!” I shouted with worry,
but Arin seemed to ignore my screams. He still tries
pulling the plant away without realizing the surrounding soil was getting more and more shaken.
“After.” When Arin tried to pull the plant, it,
the surrounding land began to split apart making the plants detach. “I got it,”
arin said with passion.
“Arin! Get away from that place!” Arin saw me with
a puzzled expression, but suddenly he finally regained his senses. The land he was grounding was getting
shakes and splits.
Aware of the situation Arin tried to run towards me. In an instant,
the ground in the middle of the place started to sway violently. Explosion-like
large from below, the ground was crushed, spewing dust and pebbles into the air.
Arin suddenly crashed, but quickly I
caught him. Lucky he wasn't hurt.
Rumbling sounds filled the air, a monster
rise from the ground. When the monster fully appeared from below
the ground, the dim light from his fiery red eyes illuminated the surrounding area,
gave a terrifying look to his terrifying face.
The monster had a head like a blossoming flower, an arm
and his feet are made of long roots.
The monster's body stood tall, facing us with eyes
which keeps burning red. The wild plants covering his body were swaying,
creating a creepy impression.I feel my heartbeat getting faster,
but I knew we had to act immediately.
"Come, Arin, we have to avoid it!" shanky
with a firm tone. I helped Arin stand up and run away from the monsters
who loomed in front of us.
There was a rumbling sound as the monster chased. We're trying
running as hard as you can, dodging the towering roots trying to catch
our.
"Damn it! I never thought pulling a flower would
bring monsters like this!" arin shouted while running, but
his eyes still sparkled with enthusiasm looking at the monster up close.
"We can't face it directly. Come on
we're looking for a place to hide!" I said, pointing Arin in the direction
the forest next to the trail.
With breath we tried to escape,
avoid the monster's attack.
Eventually, Arin and I managed to reach the dense forest,
trying to hide behind shady trees. The monster looks on
searching for our existence with a terrible roar.
"Seva, what should we do now?"
asked Arin with a sigh. His face was pale with fear.
I pondered for a moment trying to think about our steps
subsequent. The monster's movements were slow, however, its roots were able to
it was very annoying if we kept running.
"We can't escape from this monster
forever. We have to find a way to defeat him" I said.
Arin looked at me in shock. “You're serious?” said it.
I just nodded my head while staring intently at the direction
that monster.
