Gantor
WHEN THE PEOPLE ON the deck of the ship were distraught by Ashlen who suddenly threw themselves and added to the excitement, the look of an innocent face emerged from the surface. “What the fuck? Your voice is louder than the sound of a storm!” Ashlen answered the screams of his underclassmen while rubbing his face. “I'm just tempted to throw myself up because of the hustle.”
After being helped to board the ship, Ashlen lay quietly by the side of the ship while drinking warm tea and reading books without fear of drowning. Meanwhile, the team gawked at the behavior of their chairman. “Am I the only one who feels that Ashlen is too brave?” whispered Arion whose legs were still trembling.
“Not that fearless is good?”
“That's not what it is, Can.” Arion observes the surrounding people who are still vying to hide themselves from danger, even Evander is heard praying.
“Oh, Lord, if you want to uproot my life, give me a chance to eat delicious, just one day.” Well, even though the request is not far from the stomach affair, but people still panic!
Feeling observed, Ashlen turned his head and said calmly, “If you fall, I will catch you. Remember that as a life debt, at any time I collect.” It was as if the current state of the storm was a normal thing for him.
Darksville has less lighting than any other region in Autumnland. It was caused by the existence of Gloongi, a fungus that only grows on the plains of Darksville born from the corpses of ancient fighters and its energy is able to absorb sunlight. The night in this area could not be penetrated by any lighting, except using high-level magic.
When they arrived at the port of Gantor, the gray sky turned purple. “Since when did the day pass quickly? Isn't that one more day? How do we find the strongest element area within 24 hours!” The successive questions from Arion added to the team's panic.
“We leave at dawn and arrive at dawn as well. Nice, Can, good choice of place.” The Elf's insinuation was pointed out blatantly to Candra. “I even felt we would starve to death from not eating for a full day,” lamented again.
“Food alone you think, Blonde!”
“Of course, Rion! You can't think or move without the energy of food.”
“I'm sure the food you're tasting is settling in the brain. Absolutely inexhaustible.”
Ashlen broke up the two boys' quarrel with the words, “hush!” so that it can make both lips stop blabbering. His head felt dizzy thinking about the nonsense talk they always do. Maybe his hair fell out due to stress to take care of his team's children.
“It's still daytime, but it's so dark Darksville, then daylight will look like dawn,” explained Candra while leading the way. Darksville area is not overgrown by trees or grass as usual, only overgrown with colorful mushrooms whose light can last until evening.
Gloongi is a type of fungus that is not dangerous, but has a tasteless flavor, like chewing a handful of sand. The road to the center of Gantor is often found a variety of animals that evolved. The luminous animal often used by residents in Darksville is Shine, similar to a young deer with a body of bright blue light.
The Gantor operating center that gets the largest funding from Archimage looks magnificent even though it is minimal lighting, but the majesty of the hundreds of feet high place looked like a hamlet with one part of its territory half of the area of the Wisteria Academy. Naturally, the rehabilitation place for former criminals who want to be returned to the community is made as similar as possible to community life so that the inmates feel accustomed.
The team's arrival in Gantor was greeted with a 2-meter-tall man with a long white beard reaching the elbow, allowing them to enter the living room. Of course with Ashlen's shrewdness in communicating, helping them to get permission to look at the intricacies of Gantor under the pretext of research students Wisteria Academy. It was strengthened by the magic license owned by Candra as a member of the witch who had a relationship with Darksville.
“At least stop laughing and help your friend!” Evander tried to dodge every time the ex-con tried to catch him, probably thought to be hugging. “Can, say something! This time fix your mouth.”
A commotion spreads from Gantor's left wing as a result of one of the former convicts being attracted to Evander. If not because of his calm war, Ashlen had already exploded his anger. Moreover Arion added chaos with—not accidentally, he said—clawed one of the former criminals. Though in retrospect, Arion's poisonous claws did not carelessly appear when he had no intention of using them. Just be right! Although the reason is not logical, which helps Candra to vent her anger because it is considered as the woman with the thinnest body among team members.
Candra is about to make a sound, but is preceded by Ashlen who uses his talent to stop the chaos. Not only that, the old bearded witch who greeted them earlier came with the staff of Gantor with an angry face!
The misunderstanding that occurred between the Gantor staff and the team was resolved when they saw the re-creation of events on the crystal ball. Arion was almost taken to The Bed, where criminals projected their guilt with suffering that rendered him unconscious.
“This time your life is almost taken away for silly reasons, Rion. Next time don't be easily provoked,” scolds Ashlen when they're out of Gantor. “You too,” Ashlen points to Evander. “Other times don't be careless getting into careless places. There's no way we'd die for nothing for silly reasons. That's not funny.”
Ashlen's serious words make the team feel guilty about each other's behavior. They simultaneously muttered an apology to the team leader. However, it seems that Arion is indeed stupid to be lectured. He elbowed Evander's arm and ignited the flames of Elf emotion.
“You seem to have to follow Candra to put on the mask, Evan. We don't know if anyone will fall in love with you again.”
Arion's giggling voice laughing at the incident made Evander throw his hand over Arion's shoulder, applying a slight pressure so that it looks like a stranglehold. “Our line seems unfinished, right?”
“Arion, Evander, you guys stop fighting for a second. The stock of my patience is almost thin,” complained Ashlen who has begun to fatigue take care of his younger brother. “I don't guarantee it won't make you stop speaking human language. At least, imitate Candra. He is more reliable at the moment.”
“Defined how, Chairman?” ask Arion.
“Look, Candra .... loh, where's the kid?”
“She's like a child who is more interested in sparkling animals and leaves us here, Chairman,” Evander explained in a weak voice.
“Gosh, you guys are really making me dizzy!” Ashlen then pointed to Arion, “state end the existence of Candra and find him! Ce.pat!”
“Evan, let's bet. I guarantee that if I finish this mission, Ashlen needs a stretch for his face that will look older than Mr. Navarro for being often angry.”
Before hearing Evander's reply, Ashlen's voice was ahead. “Arion, what are you talking about! Quickly find Candra!”
“Iya-iya, Captain!”
