A white light was seen and Kaito was in the crowd.
“Where is this?”
Kaito walked in the crowd and saw a familiar figure for him.
“Adler!”
- Deg
Kaito's heart thumped as the scream of the name rang out in his ears. Kaito looked directly at the figure and he saw the figure of a tall man he knew, Adler Klaue.
“It...Adler...Klaue”.
Kaito approached her, but she was shocked as her body was just passed over by another young man figure who called out to her. The young man held the hand of a little boy.
“I? That's me.. isn't it?”
The figure of the little boy is the figure of Kaito. At least it was her figure in the past.
“Master, you again. Wh why? Is there another giant serpent appearing near the settlement?”
“Not that. My son would love to see you. Said you owed him something” said the man kindly
When he saw that figure, there was a longing in Kaito's heart.
“So that face is my father's face?”
Right, this time Kaito saw the figure of his father's face clearly. Even now, he could hear the name of the father being mentioned by Adler afterwards.
“Mr Blauer, I think your son needs a little. Isn't that right, boy?”
“I'm not a kid! My name–”
“Iya yes I know, I know. I heard that dozens of times yesterday. So, what do I owe you?”
“You have a debt taught me the movement sat sit sut yesterday”
Adler and Kaito's father, Blauer, look at each other and see each other. Not long after that, they laughed.
“Ahahahaha! What is sat sit sut? Stomach hurts! Mr. Blauer, your son is good at joking”
“Ahaha. Here” Blauer holds Kaito and looks at him, “Why would you like to learn swordsmanship from Adler?”
“Because he was able to defeat the big snake yesterday, daddy”
“So. But your age is not quite”
“If learn from small, I can be even more great later”
Adler laughed until he shed tears. Already so, they ended up being a spectacle in that crowd.
It was the town where Kaito lived as a child. Some of its residents know them well, including Adler Klaue.
Some people who saw Adler laughing loudly smiled, some even teased him and approached Blauer.
Kaito in the present, who saw that was involuntarily crying.
“Blauer. I finally remembered it. My father..the face and the smile.”.
Although he knew that his body was not real in those memories, Kaito did not care. He walked and stood in front of the face of the father who was carrying him as a child.
Kaito's hand tried to hold that face.
“Dad..ini...myah”.
Kaito couldn't hold back his tears any more than that. She cried. Maybe this is the first time Kaito has cried.
Starting with hearing the voices of his parents, seeing their faces and now he can remember the name of his father, this is a rapid progress.
Unknowingly, Kaito several times tried to touch and hug her. In the end he failed many times and almost fell down.
Another memory is played. This time it is a memory of little Kaito spending his time near the river with Adler Klaue.
“Adler..”.
“What's up, debt collector sir?” the young man replied casually while playing his sword
Back then, the memories that played were memories while Adler was practicing. Kaito looked back at all those memories while wiping away his tears.
He asked himself as a child, “Why don't you want to stay here? Here very fun”
“Hmm~I want to marry a beautiful girl who is shy”
“Cih, perverted basis”
Adler's movements stopped upon hearing those words. He saw the child sitting on the grass near the riverbank not far from where he was training.
“Lord debt collector, I hope you don't call me that. I'm not a pervert huh, remember it”
“Once your type does not match your personality”
“Which personality? I am handsome, charismatic, authoritative, a tough and powerful traveller. Besides that I also–”
“Poor, have no money, eat should ask my father and mother after helping them bring trading and selling expensive” said the little boy
- Jleeeb
One mental attack was again thrown by the boy.
“Then, the victim of aunty's seduction next to the house. I saw yesterday you were thrown in a pot for cheating. What is charismatic and authoritative”
“Today I heard you also just got involved in an affair with my brother who often bought my father's merchandise, right? I heard the story from dad when you were sleeping last night”
“If it leaks to others, that handsome, charismatic and dignified face will be put where? I want to know”
The little boy smiled evilly. As if he had won the war, he stood up while making a waist-pulling pose.
The words of the little boy were so heartbreaking to Adler. He even to the point of bending his knees helplessly in front of the child.
“Master, please forgive me. I promise I'll teach you how to sword. Please do not take my source of tranquility while in this city huh. I beg”
“Sial you're a child!”
Adler carried it around and turned it around a few times. The boy screamed for help and they laughed together.
Kaito who was initially sad fell silent and said, “Mustahil. That kid must not be me”
“Why can I have Ryou's bicycle mouth?”
“It's a lie, right? But this is my memory so it's impossible this memory lies”
“But I still can't believe it. I mocked Adler Klaue to such an extent?”
“Could it be that my encounter with Ryou was karma for mocking and berating Adler in the past? What possible?”
The memories eventually moved back. This time, the night sky gripped and the cries of the people began to greet him.
“Run! The Dark Spider and Black Mantis!”
“Save yourself!”
Kaito instantly turned pale. All those memories instantly turned terrifying.
“What happened?”
The heat was visible and everyone was running. There was such a frightening sound from the end of the road that was in front of Kaito.
“They said dark spider and black mantis..Could those monsters attack this place?!”
Kaito ran forward and saw several adults wielding sharp weapons such as axes, celurits and swords to stop the monsters.
“We can't hold it any longer!”
“Blauer, return! You should be with your wife and child!”
How surprised Kaito was to see his father apparently among the adults who were armed.
“Dad? Dad!” yell Kaito
As Kaito shouted, from behind the father he saw a black mantis figure that was about to attack.
“Dad, behind you!!”
Kaito ran and tried to stop him. However, when a woman screams and penetrates her body, she realizes that it is all her memory.
He looked back and saw the sound of crying from himself as a child.
“Dad! Nah! Anyone, please my father!!”
Little Kaito was embraced by the mother who was so pale and resigned.
But the miracle happened. A successful attack stops the black mantis and keeps the Blauer safe.
“Adler?!”
“Mr Blauer, quickly go to where Madam Rosa Juwel and the little boy are now! You all are too!” yell Adler
“We will help you, Adler!”
“No! This is the reason I stayed here. If they're out of that forest, it means that soon my target will come to the surface. Let me take care of it. I'll be back”
Blauer seemed reluctant to leave Adler alone, but he eventually patted the young man on the shoulder.
“Come back safely. Dinner would not be complete without you”
Adler smiled, “Or else the little master did not collect any more debts”
Blauer smiled and ran to where his son and wife were.
“How about Adler?” ask the wife
“Rosa, he'll be back to our house. We have to put out this fire and this heat. Come!”
Little Kaito could not scream and looked at Adler Klaue's beautifully fought back.
“Kerennya~” murmur was again thrown the little mouth of the boy
Until finally all those memories instantly turned back into an atmosphere of silence. The fight was over and the morning sun was beginning to rise. Some buildings were burned and destroyed but there were no casualties.
Little Kaito ran to Adler's fight spot that night.
“Adler?! Adler, where are you?!”
Adult Kaito follows the boy in search of Adler's unseen figure.
“Adler?!”
Not long after, Adler's figure was seen walking with blood all over his body. The boy instantly turned pale and shouted, “Adler!!”
The screams were heard all the way around the area. Some adults came running to him.
“Adler! You injured?! His blood..why is his blood so much..”.
The boy shuddered in Adler's hand. With a smile, Adler knelt down.
“This is their blood, I'm fine. Don't make my image this weak like that huh, lord billihan”
“But, hiks...but.”.
Adler smiled and rubbed the boy's head, “They are dead. I'm gonna take a little nap. Please wake me up.nan..ti”.
-bruuk
“Adleeer!!!”
Kaito looked at the darkness and as his eyes opened, he saw a familiar figure to him.
