Trap

Winged meeting

"Secure the Kindan area immediately, right now!" the Lord of the heavens told the seven archangels.

The King of Heaven deliberately summoned his seven archangels, because there was an area of particular concern.  An area that once had an important and terrible event.

"Kindan? Is the area where the villagers were then undead, right? What is it? Why should we secure the area again, Rabb?" asked Michael.

The event where all the villagers became undead, was caused by two living creatures created by Him, a rare plant that was deliberately planted by one of the Dark Lords to master human souls and herbivorous animals that accidentally ate the plant.

"That's right," replied the Lord of Heaven. "Soon there will be a small apocalypse, caused by greed, revenge, and selfishness of the self-esteem of the human child," he said.

"Kindan, isn't that close to your county Uriel, right?" said Gabrielle.

"That's right, therefore, I want you all to keep an eye on the Kindan area. But... however, sooner or later the war will happen," Sang Hyang Widhi explained.

"War? But why go to war? What happened?! The seven angels were surprised to hear the word war.

I don't know why Urim's feelings and thoughts are on Qavi. His hunch says that Qavi is in the forest, framed by a professor under the guise of a researcher.

Without giving a single answer, and after giving orders to the seven archangels, Sang Hyang Widhi left. Seven archangels remained to discuss Kindan.

"Michael, isn't Kindan a cursed forest and village, isn't it?" asked Jehudiel.

"That's right. We fought against Beelzebub and his army of the undead there. Honestly, I find it strange, why are we asked again to watch the area, haven't I written a prohibition not to go to the area again."

While the six archangels were arguing about Kindan and Michael's prohibition,

Urim's heart grew even more agitated at his brother's statement. His mind was always on Qavi.

Not wanting to linger in his anxiety, Uriel said goodbye to his six siblings first. "Hey, you guys... I have to go back to the human world," Uriel excused.

"Hmmm... what's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry?" asked Barachiel.

"I don't know, I have a bad feeling about a human child. I want to find out first," Uriel explained.

Seeing the anxiety on his little brother's face, Michael also allowed his sister to return to the human world. Uril's eyes full of worry made the eldest brother of the Archangel want to ask more deeply. It's just that, her little heart forbids it.

"Well. Let me know immediately if anything happens to you, Uriel," Michael ordered.

Uriel only answered with a nod, after which his wings were spread out and prepared to fly back to the human world.

On the way to the human world, Uriel deliberately searched for Qavi's whereabouts. in and out of forests and valleys and mountains. However, still, Qavi's whereabouts could not be detected by him.

Trap

The night is getting late, and Qavi still feels strange about his Professor's behaviour. Although tonight it can be said that he can spend the night in a decent place. 

The young man of Japanese blood was still thinking about how he didn't see anyone at first, but when Professor Edogawa said that the man with big muscles wanted to deliver to a beautiful house to be used as a place to spend the night.

That peculiarity Qavi still keeps to himself. He still thinks that his fatigue is the reason he is not focused on the surrounding situation.

Qavi tried to close his eyes back, but the silence of the village atmosphere made Qavi's heart tingle to find out.

In his mind, the quiet atmosphere of the village made him miss his natal village, miss his parents. It's just that his mood changes when he remembers how cruel the entire village is to his family.

"Hey Qavi, why haven't you slept yet?" greeted Professor Edogawa.

"Yes, prof. The quiet atmosphere of this village reminds me of the village of my birth and my parents," Qavi replied.

"Oh, I see. By the way, have you read about the plants that we will examine tomorrow?" replied Professor Edogawa.

Qavi tried to recall a piece of paper that the professor had given him when they were enjoying a ride on the train.

Qavi began to be busy searching for the whereabouts of a valuable piece of paper, ranging from the pocket of the pants he had worn while on the train, to several pockets in his bag.

His efforts ended in vain, Qavi's memory is currently very bad. From his head, it suddenly oozes sweat as big as corn kernels. Afraid of being scolded by his teacher, Qavi plucked up the courage to admit his mistake.

"Sorry prof, the paper you gave me on the train earlier, I don't know where I put it," Qavi regretted.

Professor Edogawa just smiled broadly, hearing the student's negligence. There were no words of anger or even berating him. The professor responded patiently, even giving him a sheet of information about the plants they were going to look for.

"Oh, it's okay. Take it easy, I still have one more sheet. Here it is, it's a good idea for you to learn what the plant looks like," Professor Edogawa said as he handed him a neatly typed piece of writing.

"Plants? What plant, prof?" asked Qavi as he accepted his professor's gift.

"Medicinal plants. Historically, this plant is believed to cure various diseases. This plant is so rare, that's why I wanted to look for it," Professor Edogawa replied.

"Really?" Qavi was immediately interested to hear that there are plants that can cure various diseases. 

Both eyes lit up with a big smile, grinning on his face. In his mind, Qavi was happy to be involved in the discovery of rare medicinal plants.

Qavi's imagination has flown away, imagining that one day his name will make his parents proud and can lift his parents.

Unlike Professor Edogawa, seeing the grinning smile on Qavi's face, made him smile too, a smile full of cunning and evil plans.

"Hahaha... already... You don't smile like that, now it's time for you to just go to bed so that we can leave before sunrise. Because the journey is quite far from the village," Professor Edogawa suggested.

"Yes, professor later. I am very excited to learn about this plant," said Qavi.

Seeing the spirit of this sturdy and burly young man made Professor Edogawa feel confident, that this time his plan would not fail as before.

"Well, I'm going to rest. Don't forget to rest too, Qavi. Because if I look at the map, the forest terrain in Kindan is so steep," Professor Edogawa advised.

Meanwhile

"Have you two rented a house?" asked Xavier, who came suddenly.

His two demon friends jumped up in surprise at Xavier's baritone voice. 

"I have. then, shall we pick him up now?" asked Osmon.

"Hmm... I think we still have time to talk for a while," Xavier replied.

The look on Xavier's face was still the same as when he was in a meeting in the Sky Kingdom, looking uneasy and so worried.

"What's wrong, dear Urimel?" teased Tyaga.

"Hey... let people know my identity, Tyaga," Xavier annoyed.

"Hahahahah... yes, I'm sorry," Tyaga joked back.

"What's wrong with your face Xavier? Looking so restless, is there something stuck in your mind?" Osmon asked curiously.

"Yes. Hmm... I don't know, whether, at the time of the incident, you were born or not," Xavier said.

"Incident? What happened?" asked Osmon and Tyaga at the same time.

"Kindan. Are you born?" asked Xavier uneasy.

"Kindan? From the name alone, I just heard about it," Osmon replied.

"Kindan? I think I've heard that name, but I don't know what happened, is there a problem?" replied Tyaga.

Xavier also explained clearly the incident in the Kindan area. Where Beelzebub trapped Kindan villagers into the undead to be used as his soldiers.

Xavier also explained what makes him nervous, namely the existence of Qavi. "I don't know where Qavi is, after the meeting was over, I decided to find Qavi's whereabouts. However, strangely not his presence cannot be detected by me," Xavier lamented.

Osmond and Tyaga also stared at each other. They had thought, if an archangel alone cannot detect the existence of ordinary humans, then why ask for help from two people who are different from him?

"Are you sure?" interrupted Tyaga.

"Of course, I'm so sure. Hmmm... Is it okay for me to ask you two for help to find Qavi's whereabouts?" asked Xavier.

"Listen, Uriel, he could have been in another forest, not Kindan. Let's not think too negatively about Uriel," said Tyaga.

"That's not it, yoga. It could be that Beelzebub's influence deliberately covered the area, so I couldn't detect it," Xavier pointed up.

Xavier's angry voice frightened these two different creatures from Uril. The bad premonition felt by Uriel has always come true.

Uriel would feel so failed if it was true that Qavi was in the forbidden forest.

Uriel's two eyes lit up brightly, and his face stiffened, his frantic thoughts this time had disturbed his calmness.

Now Uriel raised his face to face the sky, terrifying his two friends. They thought that Uriel would punish them both.
