After seeing Nero, Katanci requested that he and Nero fight right now, for that was the goal of Katanci having come all the way from the fourth kingdom.
"No.." Nero quickly said that and walked forward and ahead of them both.
Nero looked around, there were lots of cracks in the ground like there was a fight that just happened. Nero didn't see any wound on Katanci and Rira then thought it was just a natural phenomenon.
Katanci looks annoyed, because Nero refuses the invitation to fight against her, even so katanci still pretends that she doesn't know Rira in a way...
However, before that he reasoned that he or rather the news about Lyra was so famous that in the whole kingdom no one did not recognize Lyra. Katanci thought that he forgot because he was with Rira then Nero was not at all afraid when he was around Rira.
Katanci boldly asked Nero, "Nero, who do you think this Rira looks like?" Katanci asked by extending his left hand towards Rira.
"She must be like her mother.." Nero answered briefly which made Rira gasp in surprise while Katanci shifted her eyes to another direction with a face,
"I know that too." After they walked for a long time while talking about Katanci who roamed all the kingdoms, it made Rira happy because she had a friend to tell, when Nero listened to the sound of a spider that seemed to be in danger of extinction.
"Nero...I'm sorry that I talked so much that you disappeared from my sight.." Rira's eyes filled with tears as she looked at Nero. Nero opened his mouth and his soul was in despair because he accidentally left Rira alone in the middle of the road.
Katanci touched Nero's still hovering soul and tried to kick him. Rira had tears in her eyes and cried profusely. Nero's soul was still floating and Katanci managed to kick it down right into Nero's mouth which was still open and accidentally when kicked there was an animal that just flew right into Nero's mouth.
"Ne-Nero delicious isn't it?" Katanci felt guilty because Nero had just eaten a bug. Nero's soul returned with a taste of chocolate and a pungent smell. Nero looked at Rira then tried to apologize for leaving her.
"Rira...I'm sorry...and I'm so sorry if I left you alone there." Nero wiped Rira's tears using Katanci's hair. Then Rira accidentally let out quite a lot of snot. After wiping her nose Rira tried to stop crying.
"WAAAAAAH... why are you wearing my hair... why are you wearing your clothes?" Panic.
"Your hair is soft, if you wear my clothes you will get wet and you will also make me eat insects." Nero protested.
Katanci also protested because of Nero's handsome face "It must be a magic mask!" Katanci accused Nero while pinching both of Nero's cheeks. Nero let go of Katanci's pinch then said that his face was one hundred percent pure.
"If handsome don't blame me!" They both stopped fighting then saw Rira who was still shedding two or three tears then...
Rira finally stopped crying and smiled again. The three of them continued their journey somewhere.
Two hours later...
The three of them saw a big tree like a volcano, they decided to rest under the tree. When Nero prepared the bonfire he was worried because there would be a lot of monsters coming here.
"Don't worry, I'm here." Katanci smiled with both hands on her cheeks. Katanci cast a magic spell, "Protect us from the beasts so that our friend Nero who has made girls cry can rest in peace."
"Wow...you want me to die–"
"Loss Waters Rains...." Katanci made a shield with the power of rain. Nero, whose mouth had water in his mouth plus he got rained on by Katanci's magic, went to get close to Katanci but Nero couldn't move because he was given a rain shield that surrounded him.
"Really..." Nero gripped his raindrops tightly. Katanci removes the barrier from Nero and uses the right armor because earlier it was poison water magic that could create shields on one target but the target couldn't move and because of being hit by the protective rainwater the target would eventually melt.
They were both immediately surprised because Rira disappeared from their sight. Nero thinks that this is Lyra's doing playing with Rira because Nero can feel Rira's presence but now he can't feel Rira's presence anywhere.
"Katanci, use–" when Nero saw the katanci he found that she was already asleep and wasn't worried at all. Katanci is quite worried, it doesn't mean he can't help Rira, Katanci has to ask something about the ring that Rira is wearing. Because previously he had hidden
the ring when it was still a rock crystal. But now that the ring had been removed from the crystal, Katanci would probably ask for the help of the little birds that always fly at night. The help that Katanci needs is the location of other accessories.
The birds who heard that Katanci needed help immediately spread throughout the kingdom in search of the accessories that Katanci asked for. The time needed to collect all the accessories is only a month or two.
Because soon the Envoys and Princes of the kingdom are getting ready to fight Gresa the windstorm. To be able to fight it requires a lot of strength except for the Messengers because they have a goal to collect accessories that are all over the kingdom.
Gresa has three accessories, namely a hair clip, an earring, and a left ankle bracelet. Each accessory has its own ability based on where it is found. Gresa is the crown princess who ran away from her kingdom. When Gresa returned to her hometown, it became a sea of fire and a sea of blood.
Gresa was devastated and apologized to everyone including her parents and siblings, if she hadn't run away this certainly wouldn't have happened. "The past cannot be changed or changed, Gresa." Katanci tried to go back to sleep.
At the same time, it turns out that Rira returned to her village unconscious due to the influence of mind control magic from the mastermind behind the massacre of her village.
"We mustn't let that child who looks like a kingdom destroyer live!" said the person wearing a fox mask in front of Rira. One of them seemed to be shaking violently without knowing the cause. His friends ask him what happened?
"W-a-child th-that's th-thum-thump–" The person died instantly on the spot without any sign of another enemy attacking them. Rira was immediately surrounded by them with different masks and issued their magic and immediately attacked Rira so that their friend would not die again before Rira used her magic.
"If I want to fight against Rira I will not stay silent!!" Lyra tried to take over Rira again.
