The 5 Elemental Lord
Out of the rubble
Zeno stared sadly at the passing of old man Sura who had now died and became a spirit. His heart was so tight, because before, he forced the old man not to die because of his mother's request, but what was on the mind of old man Sura, so he chose to commit suicide.
Regarding the bodies of the old man Sura, Zeno and Selena tried to bury his body right behind the ruins, although in Zeno's heart felt very sad when he buried the old man Sura, who had been buried, between the two men there is no blood relation at all.
Zeno and Selena walked out of the rubble. Somehow the voice of old man Sura still ringing in Zeno's head, even though it was only an instant, but managed to make Zeno's grief rise for the umpteenth time.
"Zen, don't you think, why aren't the Zanfal spirits after Sura's grandfather? Though it could be that the Zanfal spirits took revenge back to Grandpa Sura?" Ask Selena.
"Because the spirits of the Zanfal family did not understand that the mastermind behind their massacre was old man Sura, so they were ordinary when living side by side with old man Sura." Reply Zeno.
"It turns out, but in my life, I still have one question I don't know the answer to." Said Selena while touching her chin.
"Why does the spirit exist? More precisely, why can't everyone become a spirit after death?" He asked Zeno.
"Why then? I don't know either." Zeno smiled at Selena's question.
They finally came out right in front of the ruins, the weather was also very hot indicating the time had been noon.
"It looks like our farewells got here." Selena said by lowering her face, it looks that the face is so lethargic and sad.
"What are your goals after this." Ask Zeno.
"I don't know, I've got no other purpose than to wander." Selena replied by going first to leave Zeno.
"You'd better come with me, my destination this time is Lake Vanzula, where eternal lightning is constantly striking the surface of the lake." Zeno Sahut.
"Well, most likely you could have the element, right?" He rubbed his head without itching. He was actually just lying so that Selena would no longer be sad.
Although both of them just know each other, but they are actually close to each other as if they are old friends, although sometimes they both also have a awkward time when talking to each other, he said, because after all they are both the opposite sex.
Selena's face that had looked lethargic is now slowly cheerful back as in general.
Actually Zeno strongly objected to invite others to follow him, because the existence of the person would only be a burden for Zeno. But how else, some factors make Zeno willing to invite Selena to adventure.
One of them he really needed friends, especially when he was adventuring alone, there was no one around who was known by Zeno to be invited to chat, even Zeno was a little sorry for not allowing Lyana Ares to follow him.
The second factor may be because Zeno knew very well that Selena was very strong, although only armed with a sword and did not have the elements, but because of her adventurous experience that made him accustomed to using his abilities, he said, so Zeno seemed to feel unencumbered again because of the existence of Selena.
"But I can't take full care of you." Zeno said in a low tone of voice.
Although Zeno learns that Selena is not a burden to him, Zeno must also inform and warn Selena to take care of herself.
"It doesn't matter, but let me not take full care of you." Reply Selena with the tip of her lips raised.
"Aren't you going to have lunch? I'll treat you." Said Selena with a slow horse next to Zeno's horse.
"No, I'll treat you, there's no story that says that women treat men." Zeno Sahut.
"Well, I have two bags of silver." Selena said by showing two bags containing dozens of pieces of silver.
"really? You better keep your money, because I have two bags of gold left." Zeno also said, showing two bags of gold.
Zeno's mocking smile turns Selena's face away and is so upset, but she doesn't care about it for long because Selena believes it's most likely that Zeno is the son of a wealthy family.
"Well I give up, please, you can buy me lunch." Selena said as she puffed her cheek next to her.
"Hey Selena, what country are you from? Are you a native of lightning country?" Zeno asked in silence.
"I? I come from a land country, while you're yourself?" Selena replied to herself by asking Zeno back.
"I am from a country of water." Reply Zeno.
"Water country huh, I heard a few months ago, the mother and sister of the emperor of the country of water has been found after fifteen years of rumored death?"
"If not wrong, the prince's name was Zeno, Fang Zeno. Is true?" He looked at Zeno.
Zeno rolled his eyes and slightly smiled after hearing what Selena said. It is natural that Selena does not know who the man riding beside her, because Zeno did not give her real name to Selena, she only gave the pseudonym Zen to Selena.
Selena also does not know Zeno's real face, so it is indeed a reason that Selena really does not know Zeno.
But that was what Zeno expected, his life was really happy when people did not know him, because he was a bit uncomfortable if there were people who spoke too formally to him.
"Hey why are you quiet? Don't you know Prince Fang Zeno?" Selena asked the dreamy Zeno.
"Yes, yes I knew him, even I had a chance to meet at that time." Zeno said, rolling his eyes.
"How's his face? Is he handsome? The imperial family should be handsome, right?" Selena's mouth opened, imagining how Fang Zeno's face was.
"He's so ugly, have you ever met a monkey beast in your life? Well his face is even worse than ape."
Selena looked at Zeno so annoyed. "You shouldn't have said that, I will one day report it to Prince Zeno so that you will be punished accordingly."
"Reporting people that the person is insulting themselves? Isn't that too weird?" Mumbled Kiba who had just listened to the babble from his master and Selena.
They end up in a store to fill their stomachs. Zeno also aims to find information about Lake Vanzula thoroughly, or maybe other important news
