Chapter 64: Farewell Event

Riku and Emma arrived again in the Arzotoc village and the entire place shocked them. To begin with, their eyes were widened after seeing that the entrance was full of the villagers and guards waited for them to come back.

"Eh? What's going on in this place?" He muttered as this was the first time he saw a place like this.

To describe the place around him, it was too bright as it seemed they used their magical power to lighten up the whole village. Aside from that, they could see party flags hung. It was the thing used once the place was having a party.

WELCOME BACK, ADVENTURERS!

Thud!

And all of a sudden, all the people and hybrid creatures politely greeted them, then kneeled to the growing, which signifies that they were having big respect for them.

But among them, there were two people who remained their feet on the ground, at the same time, slowly walking towards them. Yes! It was King Luke and Arisu who were also waiting for these two to come back.

Emma couldn't expect the most precious man in this village would appear at an unexpected time. Yet, she recognized him as she quickly knelt to the surface to show her respect, and Riku did the same thing.

As soon as King Luke arrived in front of them, he suddenly laughed as it seemed he was happy to see them even though their clothes went like that.

"Hahaha! You don't need to kneel Riku and Emma, I know both of you are exhausted with your expedition. So stand up and come with us." King Luke said along with a broad smile on his face.

The two listened to this man's order since they knew the power of King Luke in this village. Emma patted the dusk plastered on her knees, still, didn't forget to smile at him. "Thank you so much, King Luke."

She didn't intend to know the reason why this old man knew her name as it was obvious Arisu told it to him.

On the other hand, Riku had an uncomfortable smile on his face, had no idea what was exactly going on in this place. "Thank you so much, King Luke, but I can ask you a question?"

Luke narrowly held his chin, then followed up with a few nods as he was too curious to find out what was the question will ask by this man. "No problem, tell me what it is?"

"Why there were a lot of people here and even you what are you doing in this place? Also, the place, it's too bright, this is the first time I see this village went like this." He said in a clueless tone, looking at King Luke with his serious eyes.

"Oh, that's right, you haven't known the event for today." He paused for a second, then looked at Arisu as it appeared he was having a hard time talking. "My daughter, can you explain it to them, ehem! Ehem! I'm still not feeling well..." He coughed several times until his head turned into a red one.

"Father, are you okay?" Arisu politely said while slowly rubbing his back to help him to relax his body. "I already said that you need to stay in your room and regain your strength." She scolded him in a weak tone as she was really worried about her father's condition.

King Luke just smile at her and went back to his composure. "You're the same with your mother, Arisu, but you knew the reason I went here, to see the two adventurers come back alive in our village, also, for the celebration we had tonight." He said just like he was forcing himself to stop his cough.

"I know it father, but you have to recover your strength because sooner or later the Rattin Kingdom would attack us and we need you." She said with a pitying tone, while slowly bowing her head.

Pat... Pat...

He patted the head of his daughter before adding. "I understand, Arisu," He paused for a second and darted his eyes to the two adventurers. "Sorry to say, but I'm in the good condition to come with you. Don't worry, Arisu would be with you so enjoy the rest of the night ehem!" After he spits those he coughed once again, then eventually whirled around and the guards next to him assisted him to ride on a horse carriage.

"Get well soon, King Luke, we are hoping for your fast recovery!" He shouted to show his concern for the King in this village, at the same time, he suddenly saw the image of his father. 'I know he was really worried about me right now.' He uttered to his mind and eager to see them. But what he could do? No matter what he did in this world, it appeared, the System was doing something to stay him in this world for a long time.

"Please rest, King Luke!" Emma added, noticing his skin-toned was different than the others.

As soon as King Luke left the area, three of them were standing in the place where was surrounded by people. Moreover, it looked like Emma wasn't the one who noticed it, cause even Riku was thinking about it.

'Unusual skin tone, yellowish nails, and deep eyes. Most of the time, it's the common sign of the people who are having a ca--' He couldn't complete the thoughts inside his head as Arisu suddenly made a gesture and called his name.

"Riku, come over here, we need to go to the event place." She said cheerfully just to hide the sadness she was feeling right now.

He looked at herself, seeing his attire was ripped. After that, he did the same thing to Emma, some private parts of her body were revealed, so in his mind, it wasn't appropriate if they went to the celebration in this condition.

Three of them were walking together, hearing the explanation of this celebration. "It looks this is a big celebration, lady Arisu, what is the event tonight?" He said politely, at the same time, the glaring eyes of the villagers here were slowly started to disappear.

Arisu smiled at him, but it wasn't the smile that she was really happy. "It's not totally a celebration, the thing going on tonight is called Farewell, this is the feast dinner for all the people in this village before the invasion. Or to be exact, we didn't know who'll die once the invasion happen, so we did everything that can make us happy just to enjoy the life before one of us died." She said explained in a sorrowful tone as she doesn't want that to happen to her beloved village.

Emma and Riku easily understood why they were doing this big party. For some reason, her reason was right since how you could enjoy your life when the life bestowed to you was already been taken by others.

"Ohh... that's the main reason for this big celebration." He said in a deep tone, then took a glance at her with his serious eyes before adding. "But don't worry, lady Arisu, I'll do everything I could to prevent the village from the invasion."

In his mind, if he just was that strong every circumstance gonna be easy on him. But it was what it was since the life wasn't ended with that.

"Thank you, Riku, for coming into this village and helping us even though my guards tortured you." She bowed her head, sincerely apologizing to him since this was the only key to prevent the invasion that would happen sooner or later.

And all of a sudden, Emma felt some pinched inside her heart after hearing these words. She knew that reason, but one thing she was sure of, that statement was clear and pure. 'Why I'm feeling this? Why do I become sad after I saw how close these two are?' She uttered to her mind, didn't realize she stopped in the amid.

"Hey, Emma, why do you stop? Do you feel something?" Riku asked him with a concerned tone and that tone piqued Arisu's attention, seeing him how much he cared about this woman.

Emma flinched as his words awakened her. "Ohh, sorry, Riku, it's nothing. I just space out for no good reason." She replied with a weak tone.

He was kneading his chin, then looked at her up and down. "Hmm... I know it, I think you're not comfortable to go in the celebration in that suit, am I right?" He used that situation to change their clothes since he was the one who was not comfortable wearing this attire.

She nodded her head even though she was shocked by Riku's reaction. "That's right, Riku-" She paused as Riku wrapped his arm to Emma's shoulders.

"Lady Arisu, we are going to change attire before the party started, is that all right?" He said, then murmured some words to Emma. "Sorry, Emma, can we eat together tomorrow? Since you're going to sleep in my bed tonight?"

Arisu frowned her brows, knowing these two plotting for something. Or to be exact, she wasn't that dumb to won't notice it. "Fine, but I'll come with you!"

Eh?
