I stretched my arms up after I slept through most of the flight.
"Come on, Yong and Jiwoo! We have to get to the airport!" Karl said while walking away with Tengan and Yon following him.
Yong rose up and started walking.
"Alright, come on man!" Yong said.
I quickly rose up and followed them. The security check and getting off the airport was pretty much the same as it was in Russia, only that we were in Egypt. It was sunny outside, perfect weather for swimming at the beach!
"Alright, everyone done?" Karl asked while looking at all of us.
He proceeded to walk towards the exit. I got close to Tengan and put my hand next to the side of my mouth to whisper.
"Don't ya think it's perfect for swimming?" I whispered and then laughed.
"Keep dreaming!" he said as he looked away but with a smile on his face.
I looked over at Karl, he kind of seemed stressed, is this guy possibly stronger than that Eagle guy? Not to mention that weird vision that I had, what did that even mean? Why did it even happen?
"Hey Karl!" I shouted.
He was walking pretty fast, while me, Tengan Yong and Yon were walking in a group, Karl was walking probably 20 meters before us.
"Yes?" he turned around.
"Come here!" Yong shouted.
He walked pretty slowly back to us. There were a lot of people outside of the Airport, everyone seemed very happy and relieved except for Karl.
"What's wrong Karl?" Tengan asked.
"Why are you worried?" Yon asked as well.
We were all looking at him waiting for an answer. If he is stressed, then we should take our time to relieve ourselves.
"I'm just.." he said while slowly getting closer to me.
He fell on my shoulder.
"I'm just afraid maybe we can't do this!" he said in a wimpy voice.
I put my hand on his back.
"There's no need to worry Karl! We've got this! We're four against one! What could possibly go wrong?" I said to try to cheer him up.
He was quiet for a couple of seconds.
"Y-You're right.."
He looked at me with a smile.
"You're right Jiwoo.. And everyone. But either way we have to get our way to the pyramids!"
"The pyramids?" Yon asked.
"Yeah! There's a big rumor that the Jinni Engineer is there in one of the small towns around the pyramids!" Karl said with a little bit of enlightenment.
I looked around, everyone seemed a bit relieved that Karl isn't as worried.
"Well, if we get a bus now we'll be able to reach the pyramids in an hour's time!"
"Then let's get going, we don't want to waste so much time, right?" Tengan asked.
"That's right, just follow me!" Karl said and started walking off.
We just followed him, we were going through the parking lot outside the airport.
"Man.. I really want to get a drink!" I said in a whimpering voice.
"Pfft, you can hold your thirst, I know you can" Yong replied.
After a couple of minutes we got ourselves in a line for a bus ride, I'm assuming it's the one Karl mentioned. We got pretty quickly to the chauffeur.
"Pyramid of King Sahure?"
"Yes, 5 people" Karl responded.
"Get in" he pointed at 5 unseated seats in the bus.
We got to the seats and got ourselves comfortable.
"Hey Karl, I've been meaning to ask you" I said as I was about to sit.
"Yeah?"
"You know, I'm assuming you were the one who carried me from the battle against Ludwig so I'm wondering, did he die?"
"Well.." he gulped.
"No he didn-"
"Oh thank goodness! I was worried that he was dead! I don't want to kill him, or anyone for that matter. I only want to get stronger than these guys! Right Yong?" I said and looked towards Yong while laughing.
"Yeah haha! You're right!" Yong said and laughed.
"Heh.. Alright guys, remember, it's only an hour" Karl said.
We all nicked as a sign of yes.
"Now remember, just follow what I say so we can get my powers back quickly once we get there" Karl said.
"Yup, well I'll be taking a nap, so don't disturb me!" I said and faced the window.
"I'll wake you up then!" Yong said.
"Yeah yeah!" I responded and closed my eyes.

"Hey, boss is calling!" I said.
"Pick it up!" My brother responded.
"Hello?"
"Are you searching for him?" Leon asked.
"Yeah, we're currently in At Tarfayah, just got here"
"Good, I'm searching Dahsur"
"Alright, I'll call you if I find anything"
"Good" he said and ended the call.
I put the phone in my pocket.
"He's in Dahsur" I said to my brother Hakim.
"Keep searching then!" Hakim responded.
We kept looking around the streets and asking people, however most people looked frightened. Several minutes, an hour even might have gone and we haven't gotten any kind of clue to where the Red Knight is!
"Is it time to move on?" I asked Hakim.
"Oh Haidar.. Fine, let's move to Memphis, but be careful there's a big museum there"
"So what?"
"Lots of tourists, stupid.. Don't cause any trouble" he took out one of his books.
"Who're you gonna bring out Hakim? We have to be fast, you know"
"I think it's time for Aladdin" Hakim said and pointed at a picture of Aladdin in his book.
Suddenly, Aladdin with his carpet alongside the genie flew out from the book and was in front of us. I looked over at Hakim, he was smiling.
"I'm so happy about my Jinni powers! To be able to bring out any kind of fiction to reality at the cost of my energy!" he laughing.
I didn't respond.
"Come on, hop on the carpet, we have no time to spend! It's a race between the boss's brothers killers and us for the Engineer!" Hakim said while jumping onto the carpet.
I jumped on and we were off. Will we even be able to find the engineer in time?
