Atlas: Lightning From The Wild West
14: MAYBE A VACATION? CHAP 1

COULD YOU SAY VACATION? CHAP 1

That night Miller and Misha invited Indra to stay up. But because it was too sleepy Indra refused it.

Next day. On the morning of that day, Indra woke up to the knock on the door on a day this early, Indra who was still half conscious began to look around him confused, why he could be in such a luxurious place. However, after his life was a little more collected he finally remembered that he was at Avalance Castle.

Indra stood up from her bed to the door. He opened it and a waiter was standing there carrying a tray with a few glasses of drink on top of which was a cup of tea and coffee.

"Ah... thanks" said Indra while reaching for the coffee glass.

"By pleasure. Mr. Avalance is waiting for you for breakfast" he replied.

"Oh. well I'll be there soon" said Indra again.

Indra then went back into the guest room and put the coffee on top of the cabinet located next to his mattress. 

He shifted the window curtains in his room to add light and sat on his bed enjoying his coffee, watching the sun slowly rise and swallow dark.

Indra then prepared for breakfast, although he rarely ate breakfast because he usually only drank a cup of coffee every morning. However, to appreciate Avalance he felt there was no harm.

Unlike yesterday afternoon, this time Indra had already memorized the castle a bit and had no trouble going to the dining room.

A moment later Indra reached the dining room, there was only Avalance sitting there waiting there.

"Where are the others?" Indra asked as she grabbed a seat there and sat down to accompany Avalance.

"It seems like my servants have a hard time waking them up" Avalance said.

"Let me remember again, ohh! Looks like the two of them decided to stay up last night. I was too sleepy so I just left them alone" Indra replied.

"They are both difficult to wake up after staying up late. Sometimes I also bother with them" continued Indra.

"You know how else, we'll have to wait a little longer" Avalance said.

"Just relax, I'm used to waking them up. Leave it to me, I won't be long" Indra replied as she yawned and finally stood up from her seat.

Indra then goes to wake Miller and Misha. Those two people were indeed very difficult to wake up when they were asleep. However, Indra knew a little trick to wake them up. 

Arriving at Indra in Miller's room he saw a servant who still had not given up on knocking on his door. 

"It won't work" Indra said.

"Leave it to me" Indra continued.

The servant agreed and left Indra alone there. 

Indra also opened the door of the room, sure Miller was still asleep on the bed. But something is strange. Indra sees Misha's hat inside and initially thinks Misha may have been too sleepy last night and forgets her hat before she returns to her own room. However, his theory was debunked after Indra saw Misha who was also fast asleep right next to Miller.

Indra was a little surprised to see it. However, considering the closeness of the two of Indra is also not surprising.

"Wow.I didn't expect that. However, at least this saves a lot of my time" said Indra.

Indra then entered the room and tried to wake them up in a normal way. However, after a while of trying it it did not go well. He tried many different ways and could not wake them up

"It looks like I have to use the old way" Indra said.

Indra then immediately opened the window of the room. With his magic, Indra made lightning strike right in front of that window. The roar of lightning was loud and even heard all over the castle.

Avalance who was still waiting for them in the dining room also heard that voice.

"What else is going on there?" Avalance speaks for itself.

In that room, Miller and Misha finally woke up after being shocked by the sound of Indra lightning.

"Ah... Damn it, can't you use another way? It really surprised me" said Miller, who finally woke up from his hibernation.

"That's right, try to use a better way" Misha said as she yawned.

"Talking about being shocked, I was also a little surprised at the current situation" Indra replied.

Miller and Misha immediately understood Indra's intentions and stared at each other for a moment.

"No, i-it's not what it looks like" Misha said.

"That's right! The situation is not easy to explain. If only you had been here last night. You must know the real story!" Reply Miller nodded awkwardly.

"It is precisely because I have no night that makes it clearer" said Indra.

Miller and Misha try to explain to Indra even though they also know Indra does not care about it.

"As for you, I have nothing to do with this" Indra said.

"We know you don't care. However, please don't tell Bella and Reisth!" Misha's reply begged.

Indra looks confused.

"Why indeed?" Ask Indra.

"It's nothing. We're just not ready if they're mocking both of us" Miller replied.

Indra was even made more confused. But, thinking back to a few years ago. Bella and her husband do like to tease Misha and Miller because they both look very suitable as a couple. But Misha and Miller were always upset and denied it. It's only natural now that they're both embarrassed to tell Bella and Reisth.

After returning to the dining room, Indra immediately sat back down.

"Did something happen?" Ask Avalance.

"No, it was just my little trick to wake them up" Indra replied.

Moments later Miller and Misha came after Indra. Luckily the dishes on the table were still warm.

Finally they ate it before it got cold. After finishing enjoying the dishes the Avalance waiter carried three large bags. It is unclear what it is.

"As per the agreement, Indra. I brought you 50,000 pieces of gold in return. Of course you two will also get the same value Misha, Miller" said Avalance.

"If you intend to take a vacation after this, why not just vacation here? There are also many interesting places. Plus you don't have to pay to stay" continued Avalance.

"That's an interesting offer. However, the three of us should immediately return to the East today" Indra replied.

"We agree!!" Misha and Miller said together.

"You lost the vote, Indra" said Avalance.

Indra sighed

"What can be done" said Indra.

The three of them decided to take a vacation. Indra also remembers her promise with Linda. However, he did not think that Linda would come to the Bounty Store to look for him.

After they came out of the castle and reached the city, they were confused as to where to go.

"Where are we going now?" Indra asked.

"Come" Miller replied.

"First of all we try to go to the market in this city!" Misha said with spirit.

"That doesn't sound bad" Indra said.

Then they went to the market. It seems that the residents there have completely forgotten about yesterday's incident. Or maybe, since the beginning they already believed in Avalance, if true then Avalance really is a great leader.

The market was filled with people crammed into each other. However, it is not the market name if the atmosphere is not like that.

Many of them sell there, such as vegetables, meat, souvenirs, toys, magic items, and more.

The place looks the same as the market in general. It's just that this one market is filled with snow and cold temperatures.

Indra saw a trader whose trade attracted Indra's attention.

"You two go first, I want to buy something" said Indra who immediately ran before Miller and Misha responded.

Indra finally got to where the merchant was, the merchant did not seem to be a fixed trader but a traveling merchant. The merchant is seen using a wheelbarrow to carry his merchandise.

"Welcome, is there anything you need? I sold a lot of things" said the merchant.

"Sure, what can you recommend?" Indra asked.

I don't know why Indra came to the merchant without knowing what he wanted to buy.

"Reisth, I thought that hat didn't suit you. However, somehow he looks very suitable to wear it" said the merchant slowly.

"You said something?" Ask Indra.

"No. Oh yes ... here are the items that I highly recommend" replied the merchant.

After looking around for a very long time, Indra ended up spending thousands of gold pieces on items such as Potions, Table Decorations, and Wall Decorations. The merchant is like selling almost anything. So long Indra, the merchant had even started packing his wares.

"You want to close? Very fast" said Indra.

"It's not me that quickly closes, but you're the one who's been looking around for too long" the merchant replied.

"By the way, what's your name?" Ask the merchant.

"Indra" he replied.

"Reven, Reven Stahl" Reven said.

"It seems like fate is unpredictable, Indra" continued Reven.

Indra looks confused.

"meaning?" Ask Indra.

"Give my regards to Reisth" said Reven, who had begun to push his wagon.

"Ohh. He's Reisth's acquaintance. Reisth is a little strange so no wonder his acquaintance is also" said Indra.

Indra began to look around and it turned out that it was dark and Indra did not even notice it. The market was even starting to fall.

"Sial.. turned out to be a long time" said Indra.

Indra believes that Misha and Miller must have returned to Avalance Castle because of the delay waiting for him.
