Zeeta and the Wizarding World
Fear Covered by Hope
After being given knowledge of Phantasmal and a little more about what they were about to face, the people of Aurora's palace were in silence. There should be more things they can do to ease Zeeta's burden, besides quelling the senseless Phantasmal. If it became like this, there was no point in the Crescent Void Army being formed. It was embedded in the minds of its members, but Klutzie gave an idea, which might be done.
“Siren,” call Klutzie, “Catastrophe Seal is a weapon made by yam—Yggdrasil, ‘kan?” tanyakanya.
“Ya,” Reply Siren, “why?”
“Can't you make weapons with the same concept, but with the power they can use?” Klutzie pointed at the members of the Crescent Void.
Luna approached the two. “We can. I had planned it, but their arrival this fast was not in my plan.
"In theory, with their current abilities, plus the weapons we created with the help of Axel and Myra, Phantasmal who first attacked Aurora could already be overcome easily.”
"In other words, if they get the weapon, Phantasmal who is not attached to the world or has no mindset and has not adapted, is just an appetizer."
Axel immediately refuted Luna. “It's not that easy, Great Spirit! It doesn't matter if you want to make weapons, but I also need time to measure everything needed! Making Master Princess Zeeta gear just for moon night just needed me a week more!”
Myra one voice with Axel with a nod of her head.
“I know,” replied Luna, “because that's the moment, it's impossible. All we can do is finish off all the Phantasmals that are not tied to that world."
Alicia agreed with Luna and said, “Luna is right. This will be our battleground against magical beings, so there is still a lot to do carefully. I hate to admit it, but if we stay fixated on what will happen in the future, it's the same as giving up.
“Tell me, everyone! Are you guys really going to give up after coming this far? Whatever happens to him, Zeeta is my son.
He is part of the kingdom, just like you. I won't stop here and move on!”
“Wait a minute!” exclaimed Ashley, "i am grateful and proud that you do not give up easily on what you are facing. But, as the one who fought with them, and represented Ozy who had to train Zeeta, I will tell you this time.
“Easy to say 'exterminate' rather than do it. Although they do not have a mindset, they are still a dangerous threat. Moreover, there were three Phantasmals in the lead.
“I don't mean to let down your already sky-high spirits, but face the facts. Phantasmal who manifested himself as the Hell Hydra was so difficult for us to overcome, what about those we do not know what kind of power it is?
“By strategy, we've lost.”
“Maybe not so,” said Klutzie, who caught Ashley's attention. “I can give you any one of them information. It's a little weird to hear, but he's my brother, Suzy. I have also fought him even though I have lost a lot.
“Maybe, with all of you here, I can find a gap from him, which I can't get.”
Smiling siren. He was pleased with Klutzie's decision.
......................
As the kingdom of Aurora deepens their discussion, Zeeta is now at the residence of Reina, the Elf who has always been a support role for the Volten Sisters. Reina's residence consists of a terrace, a living room that is one room with a kitchen, then there are stairs that lead to a room. The hanging sideboard in his kitchen was filled with jars of plants and glowing powders. This atmosphere reminded Zeeta in Ashley's workroom who had a jar of luminous magic powder as well.
“Sit down,” said Mintia, who pushed Zeeta into the wicker chair then rushed to the kitchen and took the plate served with the medicinal pill as much as three pieces of greenish blue.
“Minum!” Mintia throws a pill at Zeeta.
“Eh? What is this?” Zeeta caught it well.
“Stamina recovery medicine. It is made from plants that are in the forest. I don't understand so much, but it's one of Reina's hard work for ‘can help our’.
“You ... will soon be trained Ozy, ‘kan?”
Zeeta once recalled that when she was first in the Great Magic Forest, her grass could heal her. Then, he nodded. “Y-yes.. but ... w-do I have to drink this directly? Pa-definitely bitter, ‘kan?!”
“Ah. Just give it your magic so that it doesn't taste bitter. Amazingly the medicines from Reina, any magic given to the medicine, will have no effect on the effect that the drug produces.”
“Eh? Why is that?”
Mintia sat next to each other. “If I have to hypothesize, his ability that can concoct anything other than medicines from plants in the forest—let alone this is the Great Magic Forest, which no one should be able to tamper with, except for the ranger, Maisie, or the forest itself, is a form of his genius and natural talent.
“Hmm....
"If I have to simplify, the magic attribute is the forest itself. He can make whatever he wants. For example, he could tell which plants were suitable for making medicine, objects, or weapons, without needing to study them first. Of course, to get to this point, all the obstacles are very difficult.”
“U-uwah... great once!” zeeta's eyes twinkled.
“Mi-Mintia!” peekkik Reina who came from the only room there. He hues red while wearing a dress that .. makes Zeeta tilt her head. “Ke-why did you tell me to wear this? Also! W-why did you tell him that?!”
“Hagghh~” Mintia sighed while raising both hands while shaking her head. “You alone, ‘kan said if you admire Zeeta?”
“He-hei—!” Reina was getting flushed, but she was ignored. Zeeta was surprised to hear this shocking and sudden and random information.
“Although Zeeta was a child,” continued Mintia, “kau
admire him because he can be this strong so you make him as your training target!
“You also said that you admired the way a princess lived, so you dreamed that one day you could see what the princess looked like, and befriend her, she said, that's why I made you the dress the princess wore.
“Thank God, the princess who came is much better than your imagination, ‘right?
Reina's face is getting red to the red of a tomato. “Da-da... base Mintia stupid!!” by reflex, Reina turned the woven chair Mintia occupied into a thrower that threw away just like that, regardless of the damage it made.
“You are the same as Jourgan! Stupid idiot! Insensitive and insensitive!!”
“Ha ha ha! Youth is beautiful!” shout Mintia in the middle of her ‘terbang’.
“Huft... huft... huft Reina who was still as red as a tomato glared at Zeeta. Zeeta had to throw away her eyes. “Please! Forget it all!” emphatically.
“U-uhm-fr. A-ah, I am also drinking this now, yes.. te-thank you for the medicine....” After giving the magic to make the medicine sweet, Zeeta swallowed it without any burden, amidst the awkward atmosphere. Before long, he immediately felt the effects his body was receiving.
“Ba-how? Does my magic work?” ask Reina.
Zeeta smile. “Uhm!” coupled with a excited nod. “I feel fresh right away! In that case, my training with Ozy might be smooth!”
Hearing her, Reina made a moody look and raised a question mark on Zeeta's head. “What's up?” tanyakanya.
“I always think...”
.
.
.
.
“What are you ... not afraid of all this? Don't you feel like giving up?”
.
.
.
.
“Why are you fighting so hard?”
Zeeta smiled again, but this time it felt wry. “I ... already see the future,” he said, “ that future is very bleak. Worse, I was the cause.
“Hearing this alone, can you imagine how scared I am?”
Reina felt struck. He regretted asking that question.
“Of course I'm scared. My fear is getting bigger and bigger. The threat that comes my way is also becoming more and more dangerous....
"I received a lot of trust and hope from the people around me. But at the same time, I wondered, what is 'believe'?
"What is 'hope'?
"I have decided to answer that trust and hope, and want to prove to myself that I will not be me in the future....
“I .. I can't let go of Lucy saying I'm the same as I was from my head. I already know why she could be Lucy now.
"I'm so scared."
Zeeta looked at his hand. "Our blood is connected, maybe that's why I can be a little sure if my future reason is similar to what Lucy did.
"But...." He clenched his hand, then smiled. The smile is brighter. That smile was a confident smile. He then hit his left chest with his right fist.
“I am Zeeta Aurora XXI! I am me! I was trusted by my ancestors in the hope of continuing the life of the world!
“I have amazing colleagues, who can definitely answer when I need their help.
“More...”.
Reina was curious about the continuation. “More ... what?”
“After hearing what you thought of me, it somehow gave me courage and allowed me to reach for a new light. Thank you, Reina!” Zeeta did not lose her smile. “If you can give me courage and strength, I hope I can give you the same!
"All right, I need to see Ozy soon. See you, Reina!” Zeeta lifts his leg from there and immediately looks for Ozy.
Reina smiled. He was grateful for what Zeeta had said.
“I hope, you can also protect what you want to protect, Zeeta!” such was the hope Reina revealed in the mind while painting a smile. However, shortly thereafter, he is visited by Hugo.
“I have to talk to you, Son,” Hugo said. He looks very serious.
