"Mr Zeno, are you conscious?"
Zeno slowly opened his eyes when he heard the voice of a woman who was somewhat similar to a man. The woman was none other than Turse who was half panicked to see the condition of Zeno who fainted one day ago.
Zeno realized that he was lying on the bed with Turse standing next to him. He also saw, that Turse's eyes were glazed over. I don't know, Zeno doesn't know why Turse is like this either.
She suddenly felt very sad as well, her eyes slightly reddened as if she was crying. He did not know, what happened to his real body during his encounter with Goddess Luna.
What was that? Is that a dream? For some reason Zeno felt a strong bond between himself and Goddess Luna. He also looked very sad, not because he told about his family, but sad because he came out of the dream, as if far away and left Goddess Luna.
But Zeno immediately realized, Goddess Luna is the highest Goddess, who must have a bond with her is very natural. Because, it is appropriate, man has the bond and relationship of the day with a Goddess.
However, it felt very different, as if Goddess Luna was the closest person to Zeno, so she felt that the bond was not a relationship between gods and humans, but something more. That was what made Zeno feel like crying as his body turned into a flake of light.
His eyes were fully opened, his consciousness was full that he was really awake.
"Turse, what's wrong?" Zeno tried to get up, "Why can I be here?" He was also quite curious about a place that looked a lot like a room. The thing is, whose house is this? Wasn't the last time he stood in a temple before meeting Goddess Luna?
"You suddenly fainted while you were in the temple 99 light. I was so freaked out, luckily the parents there took you to Hole's house." Turse rubbed his tears that were about to fall, his face looking sad when he saw Zeno's suddenly strange condition.
"If you're sick, you don't have to force yourself to look for the lotus flower. If you just tell me to, then I'll be ready to do it." Turse said softly, he is really very concerned about Zeno's condition.
"No need to worry." Zeno smiled towards Turse, "So I just couldn't hold back the life energy in the temple there." Reciprocity.
"You're lying, you're a very strong person, how is it possible if you can't hold back the life energy?" Turse Protest.
Zeno thought for a moment, how do I tell Turse that she met Goddess Luna? Wouldn't that if heard would produce a fairy tale?
Therefore, Zeno just shook his head and said, "It's up to you."
Turse only heaved a sigh of relief, seeing his master's fine condition made him very happy.
"Wait a minute." Zeno remembered the words of Turse. "What did you say? This is Hole's house?" Zeno looked at Turse so seriously.
"Yes right, Hole said, that he had a small house in Nuvoleon. So, yesterday afternoon, he led us here."
Zeno thought for a moment about Turse's words. It seemed, he felt that something was wrong with this Hole. But, he immediately forgot about it because what he was surprised about was, that he fainted yesterday afternoon.
In fact, Zeno met Goddess Luna not for hours. He only told me for a moment about the element and his life that had just been hit by a sadness. But who would have thought, that in the real world he had already fainted for one more day.
"Where's Hole?" Zeno raised his eyebrows.
"What?" Again Zeno was surprised, it was late at night, he also did not expect that he was unconscious it turned out to be a very long time that was two nights.
Zeno then set his breath to ease his shock. If not mistaken, today is the fourth day before the lotus blossoms, and in less than twenty-five days the effects of the poison present in his mother will be in the peak phase. So, after that day, his mother really could not be saved.
"And you're not sleeping?" Zeno said with a flat face.
"How can I sleep? While your condition is not normal."
"And now I am normal, so therefore, sleep." Zeno's orders.
Turse then nodded, then he occupied a chair beside him. He folded his hands on Zeno's bed and placed his head on it.
Zeno smiled again after having his face flat again. He also shook his head when he saw Turse's over-appreciating attitude in respecting him, actually if Turse wanted to, Zeno also shared the bed with himself again.
But Zeno did not want to take care of that anymore, more importantly, he wanted to fall back asleep to replenish his energy, because tomorrow, he would have to head immediately to the Apiluc mountains to immediately take control of the mountains. Since a war between two parties could not possibly last for one day, it would at the very least take two days. Moreover, the mountains are a very difficult terrain to carry out combat.
……
The next day, Zeno opened his eyes and found that Turse was sleeping beside him, causing him to scratch his head which was not itchy due to Turse's attitude.
On the other hand, Hole was already standing in front of the door by the cross-section while looking at Zeno who had just woken up so cynically.
"Finally you've come to your senses from your fainting, but it's a pity that you've had bad luck. Did you pretend to pass out yesterday to avoid a deal?" Hole frowned and looked at Zeno's eyes so seriously.
"Come on." Zeno rolled his eyes, "There's no need to fear, after all the flowers are blooming in three more days, so why should we rush to get there?"
"Stupid, the battle between two parties would last a long time, it could even be two days because of the battle field that was on the mountain. If we're too relaxed, we won't know when the war is over and we'll take that chance." Hole turned around and came out of the room that Zeno and Turse occupied, but while she had not actually come out, she still continued saying, "I'm waiting for you and Turse in the dining room, and discussing strategy."
Zeno actually knew that he should not be relaxed, however, he pretended to be stupid so that Hole did not suspect too much that he himself was also hunting the golden lotus flower.
"Turse wake up." Zeno woke Turse up by shaking his body.
Turse opened his eyes slowly, he found that Mr. Zeno was right in front of him.
Turse was shocked and immediately rolled over, because if he woke up, something bad would happen.
"Master, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to sleep next to you." Said Turse who was now standing on the floor.
"Eat, don't you want breakfast? We're going to Apiluc Mountain today anyway."
