Chapter 4 - Epilogue: Promises

The girl said again, "I know what purpose you guys came here for, but remember... this is the true story that continues to the both of you, Enral and Enity." Before that, we were invited to sit down and have tea together. "Rakh and Odiyn are not actually human, they are gods where Rakh represents the god of fire and Odiyn represents the god of lightning. The god in this case is only a being under the power of the Creator of the universe, Harmonia. They are human beings, but were made gods. So are the other three members of the Holy Knights. Later, they married a human woman and gave birth to two children who were a mixture of gods and humans. They are you, Enral and Enity as well as Lokiy and Tohr. Your true age is a hundred years and eighty years. These things are always kept secret by your father and he also does something in your memory that makes you think your mother died seven years ago which is actually seventy years ago. In this kingdom, only I, your father, and Darga, as your father's faithful servant knew." Enity and I can't say anything. "However, you still have not reached the point of adulthood as a mixture of god and human even though you are a hundred and eighty years old" said the girl. *slurp* *slurp* The girl drinks tea very deliciously. "Next thing about the Strongest Ones, hardly anyone in the world now knows about them. I don't know why their names are hidden to the world, I also want to know, but until now I didn't find a reason. The thing to know too is that in fact they are much stronger than the Holy Knights. They are therefore referred to as the Strongest Ones." Then I said in my heart, Strongest Ones are stronger than the Holy Knights, means stronger than dad and Odiyn?" The girl is like realizing something, can she read other people's hearts and minds? "Regarding the problem that is happening now, no mistake, Purgatory seals have reopened. About how they managed to open and get out of that seal still a mystery. This time, they began their attack by sending their most terrifying creature, Gradiora. Therefore, Rakh and Odiyn disappeared. Now they're in Purgatory. This event, I call "Fall Cycle." In this world, no one can seal Purgatory perfectly and they will never give up before they rule the world. Therefore, this is referred to as the fall cycle. Knowing this, your father gave you the key to this place so that you will know the true story of this world. So far, names such as Committee 200 and Strongest Ones have gone unnoticed by many, as have modern-day humans and sixty-year wars. English translation. The people only know the hundred and fifty years of war." The girl told me things we never knew before, but we didn't know what to respond to. "You also want to find out the entrance to Purgatory, right? Hearing the question, I immediately stood up and gave a serious look at the girl, while Enity was surprised at my sudden actions. "Hmmm, good eyes... So, what do you want to go to Purgatory for?" the girl said. "Enity and I want to save dad, Odiyn, along with Lokiy and Tohr!" Hearing what I said, the girl drank the one she made then "no!" I was surprised to hear the girl's answer, "huh? why? Why not? We know the danger too, but we want to save them!" I said then hit the table with both my hands. I hit the table not because I wasn't given a path to Purgatory, but because I realized my weakness was not capable of doing anything. If Enity and I were heading to Purgatory, what could we do to those who fought against the strongest human representatives for about two hundred years? "Damn..." Seeing an annoyed me, Enity held both my hands with both hands. Ah, I sense that Enity wants to tell me to stay calm and believe. I don't know what to believe or who, is it Harmonia? But, because of Enity, I can restore my emotional stability. *grin* "You can't go to Purgatory, even if you know the dangers, but how can you handle the material with your current situation? And also just the two of you?" The girl's words made me and Enity throw our faces away, because we realized our great weakness. "That's why you won't be alone!" the girl says excitedly. "What does that mean?" I and Enity asked simultaneously. "I'm going to come with you guys, and of course it's not just me. There are them too..." Having said so, inside the room appeared like a large shining door that made me and Enity close their eyes. From there appear three silhouettes, two large silhouettes on the left and right with a size can reach three meters along with one small silhouette in the middle that has a girl appearance. The little girl's shadow was the first to come out of that door. The girl has long beautiful golden hair until it hits the ground with glittering eyes like blue diamonds. She wears a white dress with unique shades of red, yellow and blue. In both ears the girl had something like a small wing, and what I was confused about was that the girl was not wearing footwear or bare feet. I feel like I've met her, but I don't know where and when. Then the two big shadows came out of the door, and it turned out they were two giant stone creatures glowing like crystals. "They are...." Before I could say it, Enity immediately replied "Scarx and Stav!" Enity immediately ran towards them. "Then the girl in the middle is...." Again, before I could say it, the girl said "we meet again, Enral and Enity." Right, that girl is Vermillione. Vermillione, Scarx and Stav... we met them while exploring the jungle. Scarx and Stav also greeted us while playing a little with Enity. "How did you guys come here?" I asked Vermillione. "We've only been called by Lidex because there's an emergency." Lidex? Who's Lidex? Later, "it seems I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Lidex, the keeper of the Khai royal library." Turns out the library girl's name is Lidex. "How can you call them here, Lidex?" *slurp* Lidex still enjoys her tea then, "Vermillione is the third Druid queen, the first Druid queen 'Titania' who is the mother of Vermillione is one of the five Holy Knights alongside Rakh and Odiyn." I was quite surprised to hear that. "Oh yes, I forgot to tell you one more thing... You're not alone, me and the three of them are coming, and there are already two people ahead of us at Purgatory. And of course, you too, right Darga?" Someone shows up from the dark and it's Darga. "Ah you notice me, Lidex." Darga is coming too? I said it in my heart. "If there are things you do not understand at this time, ask when you are on the go." Hearing that, Enity and I got excited even though there were still many questions that needed answers from them. In my heart I said "wait for us, dad! Wait for us, Odiyn, Tohr! I'll protect you, Enity, too." Enity realized I said something, "hm? You said something?" Hearing that question, I replied "hm? It's nothing." The perilous journey finally begins, but everyone still don't know that there will be a lot unexpected going on ahead.
