The World Of The Venerate: Everwhite
Chapter 47 - The escape plan
“Dad...” Say Kral, surprised to see Hefaistos coming.
The young man undoes his intention to attack Aiver and then removes his holy weapon.
“Dad, this guy just walked into that door..” said Kral, pointing to the door previously opened by Aiver.
“And you know that there are some ritual places in the room and ancient books that may hold magic that has been banned in this country since time immemorial,” continued the youth, explaining about the contents of the room he entered.
“Books that store ancient magic-magic you say?” Hearing this, Rayvery was surprised.
He then walked up to the door and held it. He tried to use his power to observe something inside, but could not because the door and the room inside it seemed to have a strong power, which cannot be recklessly felt by the Venerate.
“Indeed we did not allow the old building relics of the kingdom of Lightio to be destroyed, because we were always curious about what was behind this door, because it must have a special key, and all this time the key is never known to exist..”.
“Even we can not destroy the wall because the barrier magic that lines the room in it is very strong,” said Rayvery, explaining about the history of the door in the old building.
“The key was on him.. I just saw him open that door with some gems.” Then Kral immediately informed him that Aiver had the key.
“Aiver, is that true?” Ask Rayvery.
“Of course it's not true mom.. I even just found out that there's a secret door in this building,” replied Aiver, lying to mom, lying to me, which though the man before will tell about the room that was inside when Kral threatened him.
“What did you say? How dare you lie like that, even though you have previously been caught red-handed.” Hearing Aiver's bullish question, Kral suddenly becomes furious and wants to hit the man.
“Kral Stop...” However, in an instant Hefaistos instantly held it.
“Kral Silkbar, I know you're here to give calculations to Astrapi, but not by slandering me like this,” said Aiver, turning back the facts.
Kral became even more furious and immediately shook off the hand of Hephaestus who tried to hold him. He raised his sword again and pointed it towards Aiver.
However, the actions that Cral would do next were immediately blocked by Hephaestus.
“Listen to me Kral, you must fight me first. If you try to kill him or hurt him it will make your sister miserable because no one else is responsible.”.
“I know that you are furious to know what he did to your sister, as well as to your father. But, we must speak well because both the Silkbar clan and the Portner clan are the main clan in this country,” says Hefaistos.
Kral is out of words to make himself right. The young man again undoes his intention again to attack Aiver because he prefers to follow the word from his father.
After Kral undoes his intention, the young man and his father slowly walk away from the building.
“And for you Aiver. I will forgive and forget your mistakes if you are responsible for the actions of Astrapi.” Hephaestus paused for a moment and warned Aiver about his actions to Astrapi.
Kral is upset that he cannot reveal Aiver's lies. The young man just glared at Aiver, seemingly so annoyed with the cunning of the man.
Aiver returned the Kral's expression with a grinning smile on his face unnoticed by Hefaistos and Rayvery.
After Hefaistos and Kral left, Rayvery looked at Aiver with a suspicious look, feeling that the woman knew something was hidden by her son.
“What's wrong with you mom?” Aiver asked, puzzled at the expression from his mother.
“Of course not mother, do you already have the same thoughts as the eldest son of the witch president?” Aiver answered while standing up and moving from that place.
–19 to 25 October 3019–
Two days later after Hefaistos and Kral went to the New Hammershine area, suddenly heard the news of Aiver and Astrapi's wedding plan which will be carried out five days later.
Astrapi then surprised and refused about his wedding plans with the Continent Venerate from the New Hammrshine area.
However, like it or not Astrapi still have to marry Aiver because of the agreement made by Hefaistos with Rayvery so that Astrapi can be free from bad views, and keeping the honor of Hephaestus also as the leader of the land of Lightio.
Despite rejecting it, Astrapi can not do anything and must accept it.
***
Somewhere, it appears that Kral and Illios are talking about something about Aiver.
“Ancient artifacts and ritual sites located in Erestmanch city?” Said Illios, surprised to hear the statement from her brother, Kral.
“Somehow that guy could get the first key to open that door, which he must have boasted that he didn't have that time.”.
“As we know that Lightio used to have witches who used black magic, which made him turn evil,” says Kral.
“You said in the room there was a strong barrier right.. Of course the person who made the room did not want the science to just disappear,” continued Illios.
While they were discussing this, Astrapi suddenly came with a sad expression.
“Astrapi, what is it?” Illios asked, looking at the expression of her little sister.
“How can I not marry that bastard?” Ask back Astrapi.
“Truely too, that's also what we should think about. We can't convince dad about this because he has to keep his honor as a witch president rather than his own daughter,”.
“Then you better go escape from this place,” continued Kral, suggesting that Astrapi leave the city of Hawkingson.
“But, where should I go?”
“Where else would you have to go if not the northern inland region.”
Hearing the statement from the Kral, Astrapi and Illios also looked surprised because the region called by the young man was where their mother lived together with their two brothers.
“Northern territory. But, I can't go there. I do not make you sad to hear about my situation,” said Astrapi refused an offer from Kral.
“Then you still have one more place to run.I.e., the western region, where even the witch president does not want to deal with the people who are there,” Illios said, now that gives an escape suggestion from Astrapi.
“Are you sure if they'll accept me?” Ask Astrapi.
“Of course, you are the Continent Venerate, one of the strongest Venerate of Lightio. How could they refuse you if you join them,” replied Illios.
