Journey In A Fantasy World
Dwarf Rescue

Jian and Rui stared at each other. They all did not understand what the dwarves were saying, and vice versa.

Until in the end, one dwarf took out an extremely small tool in the eyes of Jian, Rui and Neo. It was like a round object similar to an earphone because it was placed in the ear.

"Hey, will they understand what we say?" Neo whispers. Jian and Rui shrugged.

"If they're going to understand, isn't it still difficult because they don't speak our language?" Neo whispered again.

"You better not be noisy, Neo. We'd be considered weird if they really understood our language through that weird tool." Rui whispered back.

"Well, Miss, Mister. Please speak," the dwarf wearing the device speaks the language of man on earth.

Neo's aghast, "You!"

"Ah, I'm Ao. I'm a dwarf who lives in this area. Where'd you witch from, man? Thank you for saving me from that vortex of evil magic" said Ao.

"Neo, we should just leave them alone," Rui whispered in Neo's ear, "What matters is that we saved them, right?"

Neo smiled broadly, "That's it, Rui. You as a class champion don't have to act stupid to deal with this kind of thing. You have to understand, in any world, nothing is free. We're gonna have to pay them a fair price because we saved their lives." Neo explained while whispering as well.

Rui nodded in understanding, then went back to silence waiting for Neo to negotiate again.

"We want to thank you, Miss, Young Master. But, if I may know, what's your name, and what academy?"

Neo was silent for a moment, Jian and Rui elbowed his arms as they did not answer.

"Eh, hm .. My name is Neo, whose hair is black his name is Jian. The blonde one was called Rui, we are from the 2nd Academy of Sciences," Neo introduced each of his friends as well.

"What an academy means is a school, right?" Neo whispered uncertainly in Jian's ear.

"Science Academy? Whatisit? There is no magic academy with that name in our city, right, Ao?" ask other dwarves in their own language.

"Eum .. Could it be that you are from another city?" Ao asked Neo as soon as he heard his friend's question.

"Ah, yes. We are not from this city, nor are we from this world." Neo answered honestly. "So, can you please explain to us, where is this world and what is its name? Then, can you take us back to our world?" ask Neo.

The dwarves stared at each other. They were confused as to why and why Neo asked like that. Neo explains that just think of it as a guest.

"Ah, buddy, are you coming from Luse City?" ask Ao.

Neo looked at his two friends, "Hey, which Luse City is it?"

Jian and Rui shook their heads, "Maybe it's their neighbor's town."

Neo scratched his nape, "Look, let's just say we came from a different world. Even if you mention the name of the country, you probably won't understand ...," Neo looked at Ao with an unconvincing face.

"Alright, from somewhere different from our Blue Continent." Ao nodded.

"Eh, so this isn't the Asian Continent anymore?" Rui asked Jian. Jian shrugged his shoulders.

"Eh, what? A different world?" Ao looked surprised after realizing his sentence was a little awkward, "How can you guys be from another world?"

Neo nodded, "Maybe they are just like humans in general, Jian. Their world is the only one in the universe for themselves. Think of it that way."

Neo looked back at Ao, "So, can you help us get back to our world?"

Ao was seen discussing with his friends, after a few minutes, he faced Neo again, "We can't, man. But our queen can. May I take you to the Queen's Palace to report your complaint and find a solution?"

Neo looked at Jian and Rui, "How is it? Do you want to meet the queen they mean or not? It might just be that he's the only one who knows how we're going back home ...," Neo convinces Jian and Rui that they follow his advice during a trip on this foreign continent.

Jian and Rui nodded, "You look more experienced after all."

Neo thought for a moment, "Eh, but this is my first time. I'm just adjusting" she said shyly.

----------------

They arrived at the Queen's Palace in just a split second. Apparently Ao took them using a teleportation portal. Once entering the portal, it will go straight out at its destination, like opening a door and exiting through that door.

Jian gulped, "This palace is magnificent."

"The taste is like a palace in your fantasy comic, Jian," Rui said.

They were engrossed in seeing the interior of the magnificent Queen's Palace. But Neo had his own thoughts on this magnificent palace.

"If you think about it, the world is really very advanced if they want to, but they rely more on magic than technology. Only the weak use technology."

"Like that dwarf?" added Rui.

Neo nodded, "It might be an automatic translator tool that could make him understand as well as say sentences in the same language. Let's just see if the queen they mean also uses the same tools or magic to understand our language."

Jian nodded, "Look, there are no televisions or laptops anywhere in this palace."

"They don't need it, Jian. Maybe in this Blue Continent, technology has been invented hundreds of years ago, but the population is more interested in easier and instant magic. You see the wall up there," Neo pointed up with his hand, Jian and Rui's gaze directly towards the hand pointing.

"See the wind that blows from there. There is no ventilation, AC, or fan there, but the wind blows very cool. It must be magic, like automatic magic." Neo explained briefly.

"Neo, you look more like a tour guide than someone who just visited him," Jian chuckled, staring at Neo who seemed to understand this magical world.

"Eh, I'm just adjusting," Neo scratched his nape.

Ao and his companions had already turned to the next passageway, Jian, Rui and Neo continued walking behind them. It seems to be the last hallway. The hallway was directly facing a huge silver-colored door.

Jian, Rui and Neo opened their mouths in awe of the magnificent giant door. Suddenly Neo elbowed Jian's arm mischievously, "If we scratch it a little, maybe we can sell our nail clippings at a great price. It looks like precious precious metals" he whispered.

Jian glared unhappily, "You mustn't be rash in people's homes!"

Neo instead let out a 'sstt' sound to tell Jian to be quiet, his eyes staring straight ahead as the giant door opened. Inside there is a silver throne that is very beautiful from any angle.

"Don't we look more like we're in heaven?" Rui held onto Jian's hand tightly, not as enthusiastic as Neo, instead she felt terrified.
