THERE WAS A CEILING AND a forest that stretched wide, as well as one well. New bodies carrying secret missions glide from the well, greet the birds, then surf with the wind, and end up crashing on the ground. Galavidi, a witch woman who has eyes, eyelashes, eyebrows, and hair that are all white, awakens first from her three other friends. The magic wand in his hand commonly referred to as the Wand of Two Characters helped him stand up, but in vain. His back feels pain all the way to the bone marrow. He fumbled the ground around until his hand touched a soft lump of meat.
The long haired woman like her blue of the night curled up and fainted because her head hit something. Galavidi tried to stand up again, then kicked his friend's butt several times to make sure that the Demigod of Ishtar and Nannar's descendants had not died. Akkadian name. While Kannika, the most petite woman among them is seen looking for something. Indeed, there was one member of the group who disappeared. Where is Sam? Its existence became a question mark before it was found a little far away and stuck upside down in a willow tree, as the most extreme result in his team traveling backwards from 2,242 to 1,777, if nearly 465 years. Looks like the Well has chosen love.
When Galavidi and Anis— contracted a dragonfly in charge of sending vision data, in lieu of his twenty-hour blindness— was ready; akkadia managed to calm his painful head; also Sam who managed to get off with the help of Kannika, the mission journey began with a tempestuous spirit. Although as far as the eye can see, there are only paths with uneven topography. Sandy soil and rocks make feet slip, as well as hands that bleed to hook something to fate no worse than this.
Kannika rests her body with her front legs, pausing for a break. Trees that were once lush become more tenuous. Their chest tightened and got worse when the climb for the sake of the climb was successfully passed. However, the longer the bodies reach their limits.
As the sun rose, Galavidi pressed his cloak to cover his face, otherwise his skin would be flushed and burned. Luckily, the style of her Wisteria Academy uniform, which had miraculously changed was still the same as usual. On the other hand, Kannika's eyes scanned, looking for a good place to shelter. “I am thirsty,” said Kannika, “if Avi does not prohibit using Akkadian anzu and Sam flies with his wings, we will not feel this.”
Galavidi leaning against the alder tree. “I told you, the difficulty to Wisteria Academy is in the middle. If we fly at the beginning of the journey, there is a possibility that we die from complaining too much and are never found. Look, the Well of Time area is surrounded by sea water and on the south side there are mountains, so there must be estuaries. That becomes the benchmark distance to Wisteria Academy getting closer.”
“I can't wait to make my face look fresher. It would be dangerous for a noble if anyone saw his appearance messy.” Akkadian chattering.
Sam who is also a noble said, “I do not, tuh.”
Akkadian upper lip twitching. He wanted to retaliate, but was stopped because Galavidi first said, “Yosh! Looks like we can use the air line up to the estuary, then clean up for a moment. After that, we walk again to get to the academy. What do you think, Chairman?”
Sam nodded while giving a thumbs up, “Good.”
“Why do I have to walk again?” Akkadian.
Kannika shakes the head of Akkad until her body staggers forward. “Stupid! Today we are forbidden to use magic, you do not remember the message of the Lord of Darkness? So, we have to be smart to use the opportunity in narrowness.”
“Finally you become smart.” Sam clapped his hands even twice, then spread his wings and flew first, almost getting a blow from Kannika.
The wind was not too strong. From above, they can see the scenery with satisfaction, until the sensation of freshness is able to relieve the heart and mind after using sweat and blood on the previous road trip. Kannika flexes her joints and Akkad rearranges her appearance. The other two sat on the large rocks at the edge of the estuary, looking only at the busy Kannika and Akkad. Up here, no major problems have arisen and Sam is quite relieved by that good start.
“See.” Sam looked up a little and pointed somewhere. “The gate is already visible from here, although it is still quite far for the walking size.”
Galavidi. “However, it is nothing when compared to our previous trip.”
That remark proved to be true, the four of them had stepped on the academy's gate without any complaints. The crowd greeted them in front of the gate and they headed straight for the queue and lined up neatly to enter the academy.
After passing through the gate queues which are quite annoying, especially for Galavidi, wisteria flower tunnels with hanging tendrils greet them. At the end of the road was a bright light. Galavidi also heard the hustle and bustle of the people though vaguely. Their conjecture comes as Humanday becomes clearer. Galavidi still remembered his hatred, that Humaday was not a festival, but a ban on using magic that was very troublesome. If true, then the hustle and bustle came from booths selling various kinds of goods and food. There must also be magic knights patrolling. So, Galavidi explained the various possibilities and situations when Humanday happened. There, in the tunnel, they began to plan.
“I can't use Anis all the time, so I can't see at will. Magic knights were very sensitive to the slightest movement. I need an Akkadian who can understand me.” Galavidi gave a pause and cut off the sight of his dragonfly. “We will split into two that will comb the castle left and right. How, Chairman?”
Sam again gave his thumb. “Good. Goody. Knit!”
Sam mangosteen. “Oke.”
“Sip! Sana do not like my team who already smells terrible.” Suddenly the rancid man had eavesdropped on the Charming team's plan. His voice rang out before his hands brushed Sam and Kannika's heads, then raised his green-eyed face with a sinless smile. Let's just say he's lucky because Kannika suddenly remembered the contemptible creature beside her before throwing a punch weighing tens of kilograms. Arion, Werewolf of the team next to—yang Kannika believes will be a lasting burden in his team.
The Galavidis were taken by the Akkadians after the four of them exited the wisteria tunnel, turning to the right. Sam and Kannika went in the opposite direction. They had no time to look around the booth because other than being on a mission, the Headmaster did not give any allowance, only the empty Wisteria Academy uniform was leaping over.
However, after wandering around from the field, the canteen, the classroom, the extracurricular place, the bathroom, the library, even peeking at the teacher room, were, a person sought was not found except for a familiar man who was seen relaxing with his eyes closed. Kannika immediately approached and patted the man's forehead hard. “Hei, Kunyuk! What are you doing here?”
“Hey, what are you doing?!” Alanon, the Zaadia that Kannika hated the most had brushed off her hand and looked at her.
Kannika glares. “I just saw Arion, now you. Are you guys just hanging around or running missions?”
“I should have asked like that. Basic, crazy people who pat people's cheeks carelessly!” Alanon scratched his head. “You met Arion? Really?”
Kannika said something before turning to return to her team who were looking at this situation from afar. “Okay, what's your business? Sometimes Maple Academy missions have a lot of secrets and better not to question any further. Yes ... just know aja.”
Kannika's rejoining to her team was welcomed by the Akkadian oath. “When I see you, I'll hug you if you're handsome and up to my standards. Otherwise, I would have slapped him so hard!”
“Let's take note!” kannika said with passion.
Sam said, “If this is the case, we continue together.”
Galavidi sticking out a hand. “Chairman, coupler,” whining.
“No tutoring!” Sam brushed off Galavidi's hand and walked over first.
Akkadian stroked Galavidi's back. “Sabar, Avi. I'll find him more handsome and powerful than Sam. A guy like him doesn't deserve you.” The Akkadian galavidi from the front was captured by Kannika.
Every now and then they observe, maybe the prey is tucked away in the crowd, or is proud to sell something, like one of the booths that auctioned a tear of the old saliva— uniform that they believe to be the former Begal Jus. Perhaps the man also sold a single hair or fur of his own nose as proof of existence in the academy scene. What a popularity that is not a joke. Akkadian, no less popular nobleman in his hometown until made to shake. And among the atmosphere created by the festival, there was one corner that caught his attention.
Suddenly, his eyes bulged, his lips trembled, also his face flushed beating the color of Galavidi's face when exposed to the sunlight. The Demigod ran, scrapping the Galavidi who understood nothing. People can guess that Akkadian is in a state of disobedience. Sam and Kannika needed time to digest the situation. Originally, the two of them had intended to ignore Akkadian as if they did not know him. However, it changed after seeing Galavidi's hand clasped tightly, causing the witch to bump into someone else's shoulder, even barely hitting the academy's pillar. For the sake of comfort and progress of the mission, Galavidi should not be injured let alone unconscious.
Akkadian stopped and exclaimed, “Yes! Geez! How'this? I must fulfill my vows because your handsome face is beyond my expectations. Really, I'll hug you many times.
Galavidi was slammed, almost hitting the wall if Kannika did not hold her uniform. While Sam laughed with satisfaction, until his stomach ached when he saw a man with a middle bang with uniform arms folded up to the elbow. The muscles of his right hand were raised slightly due to the weight of a bucket of rippling water, as well as a broom in his other hand. Don't forget the jet-black mop perched on his shoulders and his bewildered expression faced a mad woman who volunteered to cuddle up.
That's her! Someone who has a connection to their mission. Betelgeuse, a student of the Wisteria Academy who will become the future Lord of Darkness mahamulia. However, he is now no more—even like—a waiter.
It's astonishing!
