"Wait... sorry...what did you say again? You've met my fellow? What do you mean?" Uncle Majan eyes opened wide, standing unconsciously from his seat and looking at Uncle Ho and Wellan in shift
"....I don't know where to start..." Uncle Ho looking at Wellan instead of looking at Uncle Majan. He really doesn't sure where to start, but he composed himself to answer Uncle Majan questions.
"What?! Just tell me... you've met any of my kind there? Yes or no?" Uncle Majan shook Ho Jalung shoulders.
"Yes we have..." Uncle Ho holds his breath, uncertain about the condition of those who left in the Trapped World makes Uncle Ho stuttering.
"Hhhhhh..." one long sigh from Uncle Majan as he throws himself back to his seat after hearing the answer, such a big happiness rising in his heart.
For almost twenty-second, he rubs his own chest to calm himself down. With his eyes closed, his smiles are so wide.
Wellan and Uncle Ho watches him in silence, giving him time to calm himself so they can continue telling him about their condition there before they're back to the Real World.
"Okay...do you guys by any chance know the name of the guardian? How many of them survive?" Uncle Majan had his hand squeezing the knees, trying to suppress his excitement and nervousness
Wellan wanted to answer the question, reluctantly she is looking at Uncle Ho asking for permission to answer and as soon as Uncle Ho nodes
"HE WAS THIS HUGE!!" Wellan stood, and swinging his hands makes a big high circle to describe the guy Yoka summoned "AND HE WAS HANDSOME, AND STRONG AND ALSO POLITE," she continues with bright shiny eyes
"Wellan...Wellan...dear...the name, you remember the name?" Uncle Ho tapped her shoulder to reduce some of her excitement, plus Uncle Majan really questions is about the names
"I DO REMEMBER HIS NAME! HIS NAME IS..." her eyes staring at uncle Majan who looks almost out of breathing waiting for the name
"Are you that curious Uncle?" she suddenly asks back to tease Uncle Majan
"Wellan, not good," Uncle Ho scolds her immediately
"My bad..." she apologized and continues again "Lokian... that's the name of that guardian" she finally spoke out the name
After hearing the name of the guardian Wellan just said, Uncle Ho joints got weaker instantly. His hands trembling...
"Are you guys sure that's his name?" he still asks despite trembling
"Yes, he introduces himself to us" seeing Uncle Majan this shook, there must be a great reason behind it but patiently Uncle Ho let the old man gather his thoughts
"Oh dear...Oh no, my dear Lokian..." He cries as soon he heard the name
After sometime he calms himself while holding hands with Uncle Ho.
"LOKIAN...He was an awesome guardian general, wait. Is Hui Go with him too?" Uncle Majan remembered that Lokian used to work alongside Hui Go, the leader of Guardians of Trapped World.
"Hui Go?" Wellan doesn't remember meeting other guardian, just Lokian.
"There's only Lokian...who is Hui Go? Is he a guardian too?" Uncle Ho remembers when Jio was missing in short moment after choosing his swords when he first arrived in the Trapped World but...just that, Uncle Ho doesn't remember seeing another guardian than Lokian.
"Oh...I see..." The old man sighs in disappointment "Well...forget that, tell me more about Lokian, how did you guys met?"he changes the topic although he still curiously about Hui Go
"That's...we don't know the details but it's seems like he was sealed in one of our fellow's sword. Long story short, Jio was the one who summoning him but Yoka is the owner so yeah just like that..." Uncle Ho couldn't tell more as he, himself doesn't enough information about the guardian.
"Jio? That boy..." Uncle Majan murmuring, "Oh...wait, who is Yoka?" he frowns
"Yoka is one of my fellow human there... he is from Japan, actually there are more human came to the Trapped World and luckily we met...some of us even made it back to the Real World through the portal, like me and Wellan" Flashing back to the old time, those faces who he lost during his staying in the Trapped World came to Uncle Ho mind
"So the portal wasn't just from here but other countries as well... that's mean...maybe someone was there to opening the portal, could it be other guardians who successfully escaping?" Uncle Majan wondering who could it be.
As Uncle Majan know there only few powers can create or opening the portals to get to other world.
The guardians
The magic team
The Grand Almighty
Among these powers, the highest possibility of opening the portals without harming the human goes to the guardians. It's not that the Grand Almighty is against the human or other creatures. It's more likely his power is too great that caused a harm to unspiritual powers, mostly human.
"I'm not sure about anything, I just remember the place name...Yoka said that. His village is a small village...call Tsumago, I have no idea what to do after this.but I know you can help" Uncle Ho knows that this guardian still have something he didn't tell them.
Silence between them as three of them falling into their own thoughts.
"So Jio and Yoka and the guardian Lokian still there... hopefully they can bear a little more until we find the way to reach them" a pure hope from Uncle Majan
"em...Uncle Majan, actually there's still one more person with them there...Mikan, he is not a human but he is on our side"
"Ahhh my handsome brother Mikan, he took care of me during my days there" Wellan gets excited hearing the name, suddenly missing him.
"Mikan? Other creature? Well, as long as he is on our side, I think that's okay...now...about reaching out to them, here's the options..." He takes a deep breath and continues
"First, I can open a portal with my power but as soon as those Magic team and Winger creatures found out, everyone around will be in danger here plus we have not enough power and weapons to fight back once they found us. Second option let's try to find out about the power that opened the portal in Tsumago and gather all helps we can get to bring the boys back" He explains the plan
"Sound good... let's do it" Uncle Ho tightened his fist, preparing himself as he knows this is not a small deal.
"I will lend my skills to help as much as I can!! I want to save my brother Mikan!" Wellan too, ready to support.
"Good!! Let's start with Tsumago!! We're leaving to Tsumago tomorrow!!"
