What is this? A dream?The river and grass trail in front of me were so familiar to me. The surrounding was so Familiar my body started moving on its own.I know this path and where it will lead me.After I hop onto this river stone and come across a huge apple tree.I will arrive there.To that house… To our house…I’m feeling so excited I started to run. I want to see you here again…“My mother!”The surroundings started to make a creaking sound. The land and the mountain started to crumble in my own eyes. Everything breaks apart like a glass mirror.I keep on running trying to reach my hand to the house near the hill.♦♦♦♦♦I jump out of my bed as I woke up."Lenny? Do you have a bad dream?Grandma asked.I replied with a nod small nod. I know I have a bad dream but I can’t seem to remember anything."Lenny why you're crying?"When grandma said that I found myself crying. Placed my fingertip at underneath my eyes. My finger was moistened by my tears.I immediately wipe my tears an
In a small village near the edge of the map. A small family is living there. Lia and her daughter Lenny. Their life is simple and happy. Lia works in the restaurant as a waitress and always wakes early to leave the house.While Lia is working, her grandmother takes care of Lenny. Lenny used to play with other kids in the nearby town.One day, Lia went home early and saw Lenny crying sitting in front of their door. Lia walked toward Lenny and wiped her tears.She held her child’s hand and took her inside."Lenny? Why are you crying?"Asked Lia."The kids from the nearby village make fun of me.""Just ignore them."Lia replied."But they said, you’re not my real mother. Are you really my mother?"Asked the crying Lenny.Lia is shocked after hearing Lenny and tries to calm herself by serving Lenny soup from the restaurant where she is working."That's not true… I'm your mother. Don't listen to those kids.""But my hair is white and yours and grandmother are brown and they said you just p
The news that Lia became a demon spread because of some neighbor who spotted Lia with wings and red eyes.The people who feared demons started to raid the house of Lia."Lia we know that you’re there... Go out or else we're going to put fire in your house.""Kill the demon! Kill the demon!"Inside the house. Lia and her grandmother are started to pack some important things."Grandmother I guess I can carry the two of you with my wings, let's escape in this town and live somewhere else.""Mama, the people are getting angry, why they're angry? You didn't do anything bad when you became a demon.""Well people just tend to fear demons, I can't blame them."Told Lia to Lenny."Lia let's escape using this window."Said the grandmother as she open the window.Lia carries Lenny and her grandmother and flies from the window toward the sky.But some residence notice the escape of their family and cast magic to stop Lia."Fireball!""Lightning strike!""Frost spears.""They're escaping!"Lia man
"Running toward the deepest part of the forest. I continue to search for Konoha’s location. The foul scent in the air is worse. The reason for that was the number of corpses hanging around the forest.I was worried and angered. These mixed emotions keep on whirling around my heart. Just like Hikari, I don’t want a good innocent person to die.While searching, I stumble upon some monsters living in the forest. Most of them are bug-type monsters like giant mantis, Ghost moths, and more. One slash of my sword leads them ablaze, burning them all to ashes.Without noticing, the sun started to Rene. Sun rays were filtered down from the trees to my path. Running forward, I still think of Konoha’s safety.Reaching the middle part.I saw the girl I was looking for. She is walking steadily on the trail, slowly.It put a brief smile on my face seeing her fine. To the forest full of monsters. Konoha manages to live. I was so worried about her safety I searched the entire forest last night.“Konoh
"Whoah... So this is Floria town. The air and scenery feel nice."Said Konoha excitedly."They have a donut store and eastern clothes and also western items."She said."That's normal,"Ren replied looking at her with little smile.He was worried about last time and how his able to wipe the sad feeling on her heart. Now that his seeing Konoha very happy. A thorn on his heart was removed."Normal? I never eat donuts for the last two years because no one is selling it in another town.""Donut store is normal here because Floria is also popular in the name of the trading town. Many traders come here to sell their products. This town is located near to the center of the country and trains always tend to stop here for break.""I see, then while the train crew is having a break the passenger go here to shop.""That's right!""Living in this town feels nice... But it's too crowded."Said Konoha.“Growl!”Konoha's tummy makes a sound."Look like you’ll never gonna be a proper lady..."Ren sai
The sunsets and the sky darkens. The lights lit up in every corner of the park. Different stalls can be seen all around the streets of Floria city.Children ran around with excitement. Couples hold hands together as they appreciate the romantic atmosphere.Each stall has flower decorations on it. From food to games. It's all flower themed.The flower festival is held only in springtime in this city. The story goes around a long time ago when a goddess appeared to save the world. According to the stories, there was an apocalyptic event that happened a long time ago. The goddess appeared to save everyone and give humanity a second chance.The flower is in full bloom and Floria city, stuck in eternal springtime, is a symbol of a new beginning blessed by the goddess."Awesome, this is different from daylight… Ren, let's have fun.”“Yup… That’s the main reason I brought you here.”I said and pushed Konoha’s cheeks with my index finger.Her cheeks are so soft and mellow.It's addicting.“St
Konoha didn't know, but I have one more reason for coming to this city. According to Kuro, the leader of the revolutionary group and my former workmates. One of the red-robbed terrorist captains is here hiding in this city. It's not just me who's going for their heads, it includes the revolutionary group. I was a part of this group before. I decided to travel on my own because I want the general to suffer from my own hands.The Red-robbed captains, Phiton and Louise, attacked the island city of Celest, but they failed after a powerful noblewoman stopped them. One of the Scared powers is Scarlet Rose.A black cat arrived at the window. Beyond its back was a small bag where the message from the revolutionary group was being delivered. This cat was called messenger cats. Despite going on my way, Kuro still gives me information about the location of the red-robbed terrorist members.Using this flaming sword, that bastard leaves that fiery night. I will surely burn him into ashes."What wa
I’m still troubled by what happened earlier this morning.To release the stress on my mind. I get a quest from the town guild and do some monster hunting.I don’t want to rust my sword skills, I wanted to continue improving myself.When Seele made her move earlier, there is nothing I could do. If Konoha is not strong enough to counter her. She may be already done.Konoha's strength is unreal.How could she move so fats like that and she tamed a familiar? I can’t read Konoha’s presence properly, but it seems like she is not a bad person. She always retorted to peacefully taking things.Currently, my quest is about hunting forest wolves. According to the guild, there are lots of them lately.From what we saw the other night. I guess the rotten corpse draws the pack of wolves to come to this part of the forest. Carnivore hunts food with their senses. They always look forward to another feast instead of staying in one place. Normally, they would come here where food is everywhere.That ni
“To create the world a better place… Using destruction to give birth to a new world. To make the world unified, we only need one leader. And that was the witch, the savior of this world.”“How is she going to save the world by destroying it? I can’t understand.”“Because you’re a lowly human who doesn’t know anything. The world and the system run behind everything!!”The tiger dashed at Yusael and threw a punch. His fist was caught by Yusael using her left hand. She grasps firmly tightly, and the tiger’s hand bleeds from her strength.The princess forcefully pulled him closer and forcefully swing her fist down at his skull again.“I said that won’t work!”The tiger replied.Yusael didn’t pay attention to his words and continued smaReng his fist into the tiger's head. Blood sprayed on Yusael’s armor and robe. The blood further tainted her pretty face.The tiger's face was unrecognizable. His flesh started moving to reconstruct his head.“My supreme regeneration ability will revive me o
After entering the steel tower with the princess, The Minion of a witch cult, who was seen by the angelic princess, was immediately defeated in one powerful swoop. Her incredible magic, light magic devoured enemies on our way.This is the true strength of Yusael Archangel.She turned her glance at me and gave me a smug smile.“Hmm, looking at me with sticky eyes… Are you falling in love with me?”“That’s not it.”I won’t call this love. I merely admire her strength.And as a man who always pursues power. I found her very alluring. She is brimming with quality and personality. I’m kinda surprised at how she could be talking to me casually, as if we have known each other for a very long time.“You always seem so serious like in the past.”The past times?I’m quite sure that this is our first meeting. I have no idea what she’s referring to.I have no interest in being connected with a famous person like her. It was better to leave some stones unturned.Fighting side by side with her made
At that moment, Ren left Konoha. Or to be precise, the time Konoha grabbed Ren’s arm and threw him directly at the steel tower. The long sword wielder charges his blade with skill and energy. Glowing in brilliant blue light. He hacked down his sword and created a massive burst of energy in one area.The blinding light vanished. Konoha was never seen on the ground. Zeha looked around searching. Concealing her magic and presence, the light-brown haired girl had her position right up above Zeha’s head.Her feet discharge lightning and Ax kicks Zeha from his head. Forcefully blowing him down to the earth. This wasn’t the full power of Konoha. She was serious. This attack was lethal and could kill her opponent immediately. The attack originally had a hammer-like a force that could blast off a human head. There were times before Konoha used this magic and added a sharp conjured blade to her feet.“Sword skill: Instant stance.”His body moves far instantly, creating a 20-meter gap between hi
“I’ll distract him… Lightning Flash.”Blinding light radiated from Konoha’s body. So bright even that I can see anything for a moment. I felt someone grab my arm and I was tossed away with such force.My body was flying straight to the steel tower. Before I have my head craReng into the wall that supposes to be made of thick iron. I pulled my sword and blast flames. Decreasing the force impact. I then have my proper landing on the ground.The steel tower had no window as the description said. Seems like I have no choice but to climb this tower from the bottom floor to the top floor.Konoha is very strong I know she can defeat Zeha with her strength. I shouldn’t worry about her. I have to think of a better way to climb the top of the tower on my own. The side of the tower where I’m currently where was the one facing the forest area. The battle seems to be continuously happening in the north and advancing.Taking another look at the tower. I won’t say this place is a tower. This place i
At exactly 6:00 PM, the adventurers are all deployed to steel island using a spatial portal. Our location was in the south mountain area. A place away from the ongoing battle between the knights of the four kingdoms and the witch cult. As much as possible Scarlet explained to us to avoid battle and go straight to our plan. The mission was simple, sneak to the steel tower and reach the top where the witch of darkness was.And kill her.“This mission is about killing a living breathing human being. Are you sure that you really want to come?”I asked Konoha whose on my side looking calm as she stare above the beautiful night sky.“I don’t believe in the witch of darkness.”“What do you mean?”“I mean, there is no such thing in this world that could destroy the world. If there is, why would they need to destroy this world? Without this world, they’ll also die. I not going to kill her… I’ll capture her. How about you? Are you going to kill her?”The witch of darkness was probably Hikari. T
“Are you sure about this?”I asked.“Yeah, give me everything you have.”Ren replied with her sword already pulled out from its sheath.We stand 10-meters away opposing one another.You must be wondering why the two soon-to-be lovers are currently fighting one another. The reasoning is quite simple. After the meeting held in the castle. We are ordered to prepare ourselves for the big fight happening tonight. The celestial city is near the steel island so there is no need to hurry.Had lots of time at our disposal before the real fight began. Ren suggested that the two of us fight one another.That brings us outside of Celestial city, at the shore near the Sapphire archipelago. The same shore where I met the candy coral pirate not long time ago. Stepping backinton this land brings back memories.I saw Ren use his sword many times. His sword ability is the most dangerous one. The flame on his sword could burn anything. The undying flames of the flaming sword. Flames will continue to bur
Adventurers participating in the mission gathered around the castle theater hall. Turning my head left and right. I could see plenty of adventurers, but not as many as I expected. The number of adventurers who attended didn’t even reach a hundred.“Ren, are we going to be okay?”I asked the man seating on my right.“What do you mean?”“I mean the number of us… There are over thousands of witch cults on the island right? Are we enough to fight those evil wizards?”“I can’t say for sure. But I heard that most of the people here are A-rank adventurers. Quality sometimes can beat quantity.”He speaks without turning his eyes onto me. He had a fixated eye on the stage waiting. On my left side, Alicia is looking a little nervous. Her head was placed low and her hands laying on her legs were shaking a little.“What’s the matter, Alicia? Is there something bothering you?”“I feared that thing might not go well for me… Early this morning I saw in the newspaper that I become a missing person. I
We reached the Celestial City without trouble. Well, there was trouble, but it's quite insignificant compared to the troubles I have been through these past years. Ren refused to give me something to eat and I nearly died of starvation. I was fortunate that there was an angel with us named Alicia who shared some of her food with me. The side that I liked and hated about Ren was his seriousness. What he meant is what he meant. There is no changing it… Probably…(Ren does change his mind sometimes. I just didn’t know how to trigger it. He is very unpredictable sometimes. Me being a cute girl doesn’t affect him at all. He's the type of man that doesn't chase cute girls. I like it, but the idea frustrates me sometimes.)This was my first time in the city. Like what I heard about the Celestial City. The city is nearly as big as the capital city. The difference is that this city is built on an artificial island and it is not owned by any kingdom. People in this place were said to be slaves,
Life is always important. Good or Evil... That is what I want to believe. I, Konoha travel previously killed countless people. I decided to value life more. It's been months since the last time I killed someone. I tried not to but she left me no choice.I still think about it sometimes. What is the possible way to save Audrey from her suffering? Why does innocent Shaymi need to die?The more I think about it, the more complicated it becomes. I try not to hate anyone. The concept of good and evil might be beyond me. Maybe it is beyond human understanding. Or maybe I'm an airhead who can't see the truth.Anyways, the lesson of the past remained. Even though I failed in sticking to my principle of not killing. I will continue to look for a way not to kill anyone as much as possible. It's the same way of thinking I want Ren to have.I put down my pen as I finished writing my Travelogue."Wait, something good happened earlier. Better put it too."I took my own again and wrote it down.Ren'
