The 5 Elemental Lord
Lying to the Lord Ten
“Wait sir!” Turse's cheeks instantly blushed with twitching eyes, “I'm sorry, I thought that you were asking between the side of Nuvoleon or Crime who won?” Turse ran after Zeno who was walking away from him.
Hearing this, Zeno only smiled as he stopped his steps, he also turned around and looked back at Turse who looked very embarrassed after Zeno had done something to him.
Behind the darkness, Zeno said in tandem with the sound of insects that made the place seem gripping, “No, I was joking. What you say is true, that the lord of the ten will win the battle with the side of Nuvoleon, but I was just guessing.”
“If we want to know who won, then we should head for the north lane. Likely, the battle has already begun.” Zeno added.
“Truly terrible.” Turse lowered his head before continuing his words, “Only a lotus flower, but both sides willingly took out an army and fought.”
“It was all just because of the selfishness of someone named mr. ten. According to Hole, the leader of the criminal group stole a golden lotus to sell for a very high price. As for the empire, it was already their right to protect it, since the Apiluc mountain was in their territory. I, you could say I am also selfish, only attach importance to my mother without caring for someone who is also equally in need as Hole.” Zeno looked so cute, it was the umpteenth time when he said his mother, then he would definitely be very difficult to endure the crying.
Hearing that, Turse calmed down, or rather comforted Zeno by saying, “What are you doing is such a right, selfish thing? Of course not, it's for your mother's sake. If you do not seem to care, and are not determined to heal your mother, it can only be said to be selfish. You do not need to care about Hole, because you once said, that life is not far with a law of nature. Who survives, he wins.”
Hearing that, Zeno glanced at Turse and smiled slightly, as if he was very lucky to invite Turse along. Perhaps, if he were to set out alone, loneliness would engulf in his heart. Nothing comforts him in times of sadness, at least, with the figure of a woman like Turse, he can be calmer.
Suddenly, he also misses the childish Nora and the normal or rather immature Selena like Turse or the childish like Nora, though arguably still more than a week since they left the continent of the country.
“Talking about Hole, do you believe that he is a person who has nothing?” Zeno asked to shift the subject.
Turse frowned and replied, “You mean?”
“Akhh.” Zeno let out a strong sigh before continuing his words, “When-anytime I explain.” Zeno decided to shut up and decided to discuss something else.
......
Hans and Marut, both of them were facing the ten masters who were sitting on a fallen tree trunk. As usual and did not leave his trademark, he continued to use a mask that makes anyone who saw him so curious about who was behind the mask.
Likewise with Marut, he who lost a lot of blood also looks lackluster and unable to stand after he bent his knees in front of the lord of ten. He was currently in an overwhelming fear, as if between life and death while wanting to lie to master ten. Likewise, if he said honestly, then he would be dealing with a poison that could take his life for an instant.
Mr. ten immediately stood up and kicked Hans head so hard, even Hans had to be thrown by hitting the tree behind him. It hurts so much, he just got away from Zeno, but having to deal with someone like this, is really so unlucky today.
Seeing that, Marut shuddered in fear, because he knew that his turn was him. But fortunately, he immediately sighed as master ten sat back as if he had done nothing just now.
“I didn't wait for your pleasantries, just kneel down and report what happened. I need a short but clear message.” Said Lord Ten.
“The man is dead, but in exchange, eight of our colleagues also died because of his actions.” Said Marut spontaneously, but did not leave a suspicious impression to the ten master that he was lying.
Mr. Ten stared at Marut for so long, it made Marut break out in cold sweat when Mr. Ten suspected that he was lying. But he tried not to make any movements or behavior so suspicious.
Hans who was thrown for several meters, he tried to stand up and endure the pain all over his body. With a stammered tone of voice, he confirmed what Marut had said, “What Marut said is true sir, the boy is dead. If you don't believe it, you can head south and see the body lying there.”
Hearing that, Marut glanced back at Hans. “Jasad?” Marut wonders in heart, which “Jasad?” He felt that Hans was so reckless, he even dared to say Zeno's body was in place, even though Zeno himself was not dead. What's he supposed to do? He became confused, because what if the lord of ten really wanted to see the body.
Mr. ten sat back down unsuspecting to the two of them as he said, “Good work, go back with the other criminals, please, because half of the troops belonging to the troops that were successfully herded by our members have almost climbed to the slope.” Exclaim lord ten.
It made Hans sigh in relief, whereas Marut he could barely breathe due to something he was afraid of. Fortunately Hans managed to lure the lord of ten to believe without seeing the actual conditions.
Absolutely goodbye, just waiting to report it to someone who gave it this fake news or Zeno himself. That way, the life that should be in Turse's hands, would be easily freed. Unlike what they thought, it turned out that fooling master ten was so easy. Even so, they withdrew without removing the impression of suspicion though, as a result the ten masters who saw it also really believed that the child or Zeno was dead.
“In this way, to get a lotus flower is very easy. Small problems that cannot be underestimated have also been resolved. The rest of the big problems, namely the side of Nuvoleon which seems like this time they are really so serious when they want to get the golden lotus flower.” The ten master raised one of his legs and placed his foot on the other leg while continuing his speech.
“I heard, the mother of one of the emperors in the continent of the country is seriously ill and there is no suitable antidote other than the golden lotus flower. And, of course I will sell it at a very fantastic price to him.”
