Diferent with his two friends Fargo and Edgar, Ren actually has not received any guidance to practice, he was only asked to go to see Grant at the gates of the Lavanda forest.
"Should I go there alone' Ren asked Magna who was busy putting some herbs and a roll of dried leaves into the woven root basket that Ren was about to bring.
"Yes, you will receive unusual training here so don't expect you to start with a lot of explanations. You have to find answers to all your own curiosity, I understand there are some things that are bothering you right now, Grant will give you an answer if you come to see him alone," Magna explained which was only responded by a nod by Ren.
After everything was ready Ren immediately carried a basket that had been filled with several things by Magna earlier, "you can eat some of the Brein that I brought you only have 1 bottle of water that is not allowed to be spent until you come back here, use this for your weapon if you meet a tormenting spirit or magical monster during your journey," Magna said again while handing a bamboo-like object the size of Ren's arm, it might be very small for a normal human but to Ren who had become a fairy size it was visible have the right size for him."What is this thing? Is this a flute?" asked Ren because the shape of the object was almost like a bamboo flute.
"This thing is Fukiya, the way it works is almost the same as an arrow, you just need to blow it hard at the target to shoot the poisonous needle inside," Magna explained again.
"Okay I understand," Ren said as he received his Fukiya carefully.
"Go, your trip will take up to 2 days if you walk fast, and immediately ring the mandevilla bell to let Grant know you are coming," Magna ordered as Ren started to walk away.
The young man's feelings actually still felt unnatural, to admit Mirabilis was real, his mind was still hard to accept and at this time he was instead asked to go alone through an area that he didn't even know about, Ren only obeyed Magna's advice to keep walking follow the lavender buds, because the closer you get to the lavanda forest, the fewer lavender buds there will be and will be dominated by old lavender trees, so if Ren arrives at a place where there are no lavender buds, it means he has arrived at the gate of Lavanda forest.
The young man can't fight his destiny even though his soul wants to rebel, remembering Bonum's explanation that they can only return to the human world if they can restore peace between Mirabilis and the gray valley by taking back the pulchra stone from Motus there is a connecting portal between Mirabilis and the human world can be reopened.Ren ran off when he saw a giant swarm of bees passing above him, the young man watched warily, even though his hunch was that the bees might not attack him but Ren still chose to take cover under the broad leafy grass grows almost through out the Lavanda region."What was Edgar and Fargo's training like?are they also required to travel alone in a very foreign area like me, " Ren thought who had stepped back, but the young man's steps were stopped when a green frog blocked his way, Ren's eyes were perfectly rounded staring trembling at the rough-skinned animal, Ren's feet feels heavy to run, he don't know the animal looks terrible if its size is abnormal as it is now.
The frog's big round eyes which were originally not directed at Ren are now staring right at the young man, their eyes collided with horror like a predator looking at its prey, Ren began to hold his breath, until when a soft watery object with a light pink color stuck out of mouth the frog, Ren still couldn't move his body.
'Sssyyuuuttttt' from a different direction a vine tied Ren's body tightly and pulled the young man away from the green frog's tongue attack.
'Brukkkkkkk' Ren's body fell to the ground due to the pounding of the vines that pulled him hard.
"Ohh!!! Are you okay?" asked a fairy girl with a worried face, while Ren just winced at the pain in his back from hitting the ground so hard.
"Sorry I'm still not good at it, come here I will treat your wound," continued the fairy girl but Ren tried to refuse the fairy girl's help by trying to get up alone.
"You don't need to apologize, I should be the one thanking you for helping me," Ren said, still looking in pain.
'Croakk… croakkk' the frog's voice sounded loudly approaching them.
"Hold my hand !! we will find a safe place," said the fairy girl to Ren which was immediately agreed by Ren.
"I've heard about you. You're one of the 3 knights foretold, right??" Asked the fairy girl who was currently carrying Ren flying.
"Um!!" Ren said while nodding.
The fairy girl dropped Ren to a hut covered by watermelon leaves.
"My name is Flo, we will take shelter here until Gigan really leaves,"
"Thanks for your help Flo, my name is Ren, is Gigan the name of the frog? " Ren asked curiously.
"Yes, in Lavanda there are quite a lot of Gigan like the big creatures you just met, we at Mirabilis call that terrible amphibian race by the name of Gigan, they sometimes also attack the Lavanda land fairies who seem cold and damp make the Gigan race feel comfortable in the forest us," explained Flo at length.
"So they also attack the fairies??" Ren asked surprised.
"Yes, because our wings sometimes make the Gigans think of us as insects, usually we will fly low in front of their big eyes so they know that we are not their prey but I didn't do that because the Gigan you met had started attacking you," continued Flo again.
Ren nodded in understanding hearing Flo's explanation.
"By the way did you go alone? " asked Flo to make sure.
"Yes, Magna gave me orders to meet Grant at the Lavanda forest gate," said Ren.
"I guess this is part of your training, you came to Lavanda to train right?"
"Yes,"
"Then Magna should have provided you with weapons to protect yourself on this trip right??"
"Yes, he gave me Fukiya," Ren said while showing his Fukiya hanging from his back, luckily it didn't break when Ren's body hit the ground while Flo pulled it with the vine earlier.
"Fukiya?!! this is Magna's great weapon," said Flo with sparkling eyes looking at Fukiya in Ren's hands.
"Great weapon??"
"Yes, only fairies with the highest magic level have this weapon you know the poisonous needles inside are stinging thorns obtained from the feathers of the gympie leaves, a prick from the needle can cause paralysis of its unique target. 3 horrible needles must be stuck between the needles another poison, namely gympie needles that have been dipped in hydra's blood, a single thrust of the needle can even kill a centaur," Flo explained making Ren look deep in thought.
"What do you mean by 3 of them? How many needles does Fukiya have? " Ren asked with increasing curiosity.
"According to the book I read about Fukiya, in a Fukiya there is a magazine that holds 9 poisonous needles, and 3 deadly needles are always placed third after the 2 paralyzing needles, so after you remove 2 needles then the third needle is a needle covered in hydra blood, you have to be careful using it, fairies like Magna only use Fukiya if he has to fight very brutal monsters like anubis or thormen only, the goal is so that he doesn't hurt weak monsters that are harmless and saves his poisonous needles for non-violent opponents worth it," Flo's explanation began to be understood by Ren, because the young man seemed to nod seriously.
"Thank you for explaining it to me, to be honest Magna didn't tell me anything about this thing so if I didn't meet you maybe I could throw the poison needle in it just to protect myself," Ren said feeling helped by Flo's explanation.
