The World Of The Venerate: Everwhite
Chapter 1 - Zchaira's
–10 May 3024–
In the town of Hawkingson, a town located in the land of Lightio, which is also the seat of government of the country, two soldiers came rushing to a room.
After the two soldiers entered the room, a man was sitting with his legs raised on a table in front of him.
“Mr Hefaistos, the soldiers we sent to the northern region cannot penetrate the barrier,” said one of the soldiers.
“Hmph... It seems very difficult to be able to penetrate it. Indeed the magic of Artemis is very troublesome,” response man who looks to be relaxing it.
“So, what should we do now sir?” Ask one of the soldiers.
“I want you to contact my sister Lucierence to persuade my wife to make peace,” replied the man.
“Good sir...” Say the two soldiers, understand the command of the leader.
“But... If times do not work again, then I myself will intervene,” said the man.
***
Moments later, he moved to the city of Workyen, one of the largest cities and economic centers in the land of Lightio. It was also the home town of the Silkbar clan, the strongest witch clan and the head of the state in which the city was located.
A man came out of a building followed by several soldiers behind him.
“What is everything prepared?” Ask the man to the soldier who followed him.
“Everything has been prepared Mr. Lucierence. You just wait for our vehicle here to depart,” replied one of the soldiers.
“Then I say goodbye to my family,” replied the man named Lucierence.
Just a few steps the man was walking towards somewhere, suddenly he stopped after seeing a woman and a young man coming towards him.
“Oh... It turns out that you are already here. I just wanted to come see you guys,” said the man.
“So you want to meet Artemis' sister there?” Ask the new woman who came.
“Yes, this is an order from brother Hefaistos.. But, I am not sure that brother Artemis will agree to this peace,” said the man.
“Entah why they had to split.. I have even forgotten the name of their children brought by Artemis first,” he continued.
“I also forgot,” said the woman as well.
The man named Lucierence then looked at a young man who had come with the woman.
“Hei Flogaz, what's wrong with your face?” Lucierence asked, seeing the pouting face of the young man.
“Daddy... Let me come with you,” replied the young man.
“Other times..After all you will be back to Xemico soon.”
“Yeah already..” Hearing the word from the father, the expression of the young man named Flogaz seemed to be more sullen than before.
“Oh well... Where is Rayvor, your brother? Why didn't he come here?” Ask Lucierence again while looking around.
“Entahlah... Maybe he is practicing,” replied Flogaz.
“Yes, I didn't see him from earlier,” continued the woman who was with them.
A few moments later, a group of vehicles approached those in the area.
“Then I go first.. Leave my regards to Rayvor that I will be gone a few days,” the man said.
“Alright,” response the woman.
The man named Lucierence along with some of the soldiers who were with him climbed into the vehicles and then left the place.
**
Moments later, in Lucierence's vehicle, he was seen conversing with the soldiers.
“Why don't we go over land or air routes?” Ask Lucierence.
“According to the information we have, members of the northern clan often keep watch on the land border. If we go those routes, I'm afraid that they will attack us,” said one of the soldiers.
“Only the area around the giant lake area that has minimal care for them,” continued the soldier.
“Good, I understand. After all we come to terms not to attack them,” the man's response.
**
Then in one of the rear of the vehicle where the goods were placed, there appeared a black-haired young man with a blonde accent with a shoulder length on the back out of one of the boxes of goods.
The young man seemed to be sneaking around by hiding inside the box to follow them towards the northern region.
“Although it must be like this, but I finally managed to come with them,” said the young man.
He then picked up the apple that was inside the box and ate it.
“I can't wait to get there..”.
***
After a long journey, the vehicles finally reached the edge of a lake that had been parked a ship there.
Lucierence along with the soldiers then got off their vehicle. Some of the soldiers then immediately lifted the items under them to the ship that was on the edge of the lake.
**
After everything was finished and had been on board, the ship then walked on its voyage.
“Why also the name of this lake should be named Raioton? Why not just work?” The man named Lucierence muttered alone.
“That's because you have lost this lake dispute with the country of Fuegonia.” Suddenly the young man who had been hiding in the box of goods came to Lucierence and answered his question.
“Rayvor…! Why are you here?” The man was shocked to see the young man on board.
“For what else... Obviously I want to come with you,” replied the young man.
“Haah... If it's like this I can't tell you to go back... Or, do you want to swim to the mainland back by yourself?”
“No thanks, you better come back.. And I'm the one leading this trip,”.
“Basic of this boy...Alright, just enjoy your journey. I'd like to contact your mother that you're secretly following me.” Lucierence then left the young man alone.
The young man named Rayvor then headed to the very front of the ship and climbed into a grip on the outskirts of the ship. One of his hands then held a pole near him.
“Wuu... Huu..” Shouted the young man happily after successfully following them.
***
Elsewhere, a beautiful girl with beautiful green eyes was sitting on the edge of a cliff overlooking a lake. With the wind blowing flapping his long black hair made the girl look more graceful to be in that place.
Before long, someone from under the cliff came closer. There was a young man with dark gray hair and eyes similar to the eye color of the girl standing on the edge of the cliff.
“Zchaira.. It turned out that from the moment I was in this place apparently,” said the young man.
The girl who was standing on the cliff turned her head down after hearing the call from the young man to her.
“Kakak... What's the matter?” Ask girl.
“Mom is looking for you from earlier. He's worried if you're missing,” replied the young man.
“Alright, I'm there now.”
With agility, the girl jumped one by one the rocks down the very high cliff.
Quickly, the young man at the bottom immediately jumped up and caught the girl just in time.
“Thank you, brother..”
“Dumb bases..What are you jumping around like that for,” said the young man in a high tone while pointing at a downhill road that is better passed by the girl without having to jump over the cliff rocks.
“Come, we'd better leave now.. I must have been worried about you.” The young man then took the girl down and walked ahead of her.
“Alright..” Say the girl.
***
After walking for a long time until the sun went down, they finally reached a village with a semi-permanent settlement in the middle of the forest. The girl and young man then walked into one of the houses in the village.
“Zchaira... Where have you been?” A young woman came to the girl and grabbed her shoulders.
“He was daydreaming on the edge of the cliff earlier,” said the young man.
“Is that true?” Ask the woman.
“Iya mother,” replied the girl named Zchaira to the woman, who turned out to be her mother.
“Why are you in that place? What are you doing there?” Ask the woman again.
“Mother... I'm just curious about how the outside world is, why can't we get out of this area?”
Hearing the answer from the girl, the woman he called the mother suddenly became surprised.
“Zchaira.. I told you that the outside world is very dangerous. Mother even opposed the decision of the leaders of the land of Lightio to protect both of you and our people from the threat of a mixed race.”
“But, mother..Want until when we close ourselves like this. Hasn't those mixed races not even enslaved our people for hundreds of years?” The girl named Zchaira was immediately upset by hearing the less convincing explanation from her mother.
Unfortunately, the girl ran out leaving her mother and brother.
“Zchaira!”
“Mother, let me just.” Said the brother of Zchaira, immediately stopped his mother who wanted to pursue the girl.
The young man went out to pursue his brother.
***
At night, Zchaira was sitting with the villagers surrounding a large bonfire.
Shortly after, Zchaira's brother came to him and sat down beside the girl.
“Hey, are you still upset?” ask the young man.
“Not really... I'm just curious about the outside world as to what it is,” replied Zchaira.
“I also wonder what the outside world is like. He said besides this continent, there are other continents that have different cultures with this country.”
“In fact, there are continents that have the most advanced knowledge and technology among other continents.”
“I also know that, the humans from the continent often kidnap the mixed races right?” Zchaira.
“Iya true.”
Then the elders from the village came to the residents who were sitting around the bonfire.
The elder then raised both his hands in front of the bonfire and played his fingers. The smoke coming out of the campfire became thicker.
“It looks like that story again,” says Zchaira.
“A long time ago.. Before this country was formed, humans lived under the pressure of pale-skinned races, fanged and had a tail like a snake.” The thick smoke suddenly changed shape according to the story of the elder.
“They make our people live miserable. Enslaved, tortured and slaughtered.”
“However, the kind-hearted white-haired race from the north gave their strength to our former people to be able to fight against those evil races.”
“We can finally expel those evil races from this land. Being safe and peaceful.”
“I've never even seen that race of white hair. Are they still around today?” Zchaira.
“Entahlah..” Says his brother.
“But.. After centuries, they can finally instigate the leadership of this country under the pretext of forging an alliance.”
Zchaira and her brother, as well as the citizens who heard the story from the elder, were tense, as they had never heard the elder continue the story before.
“Speedly or later, our peaceful life we will be disturbed if we let it.”
***
Elsewhere, a ship from Lucierence has docked. Seen to have set up tents to spend the night on the edge of the lake.
“Daddy, you said this area is covered by a barrier... I don't see a barrier around here?” Asked the young man named Rayvor while looking around the place.
Hearing the question, the man picked up a stone and threw it straight ahead.
“Akh..!” The stone he threw bounced and hit the young man's head.
“That barrier cannot be seen if we do not touch it,” Lucierence said.
“Who created this barrier? Surely he was equal to Hefaistos uncle,” asked the young man.
“She is your aunt, one of the World Venerate of this country,” Lucierence replied.
The man then walked closer to the invisible barrier.
“Dad, where are you going?”
“I want to say hello to your aunt. I haven't seen him in a long time.”
“Penetrans sillabare..” Lucierence then radiates his magic energy and slowly walks through the barrier.
Instantly the man flew away at high speed leaving the place.
“Penetrating spell... I've studied it in the academy before,” muttered the young man.
He then looked towards the Lightio warrior. After it was felt that the soldiers did not notice him, the young man immediately went away from them.
**
Before long, the young man stopped somewhere and approached the barrier.
“Penetrans sillabare.” He activated magic power just like his father did before and slowly walked through the barrier.
“Akh..!” However, the young man was thrown away as he was unable to withstand the pressure of the barrier.
“Sial...” Complaints.
“Penetrans sillabare..”.
“Akh..!” In the second attempt, he still could not break through the barrier.
***
Turning to Lucierence who was almost in the countryside. After seeing the place before his eyes, the man then went down and walked towards the village.
“Lucierence... What are you doing here?” Suddenly someone spoke, which suddenly made a man stop his steps.
“Can Hefaistos have sent you here?” The mother of Zchaira emerges from the darkness.
