Chapter 6: [Arc – Golden Rage] Chapter 5 – The Threat Has Arrived

There is beauty and joy in the
outside world, but I didn't realize that there are thousands of evils in this
world, thugs are a small sample of a thousand evils, there must be other, much
bigger evils. I had almost forgotten my mother's words, "There is kind,
there must be evil."

I am really stupid, always
praising the outside world without knowing the other side of this beautiful
world.

....

Satrio came over to me, I was
sitting on a park bench, he stood in front of me, then asked with a straight
face, "Ristia, do you want to go home?"

I scratched my right arm, then
responded to Satrio with a smile, "Sure, I want to go home now, I don't
want my mother to worry."

"Let me take you home,"
said Satrio with a flat face.

"No need. I already know the
way home." As a sign of refusal, I waved my hands in front of my chest.

"You are...." Satrio
pressed my forehead with his index finger, then said, "I brought you here,
if anything happens to you, I will definitely be the one to blame."

"Y-You're right. Alright
then. Satrio please take me home. Hehehe." I don't want Satrio to worry
about me and feel guilty if something happens to me.

Satrio turned around, then teased
me, "You labile."

"I'm not labile!"
Satrio annoyed me, but it doesn't matter, I feel he is starting to open up to
me.

....

We started to walk. Not long
after, nine caretakers of the orphanage came to pick up the children at the
playground. The caretakers of the orphanage consisted of 4 men and 5 women,
they wore white robes with the symbol of an eagle, then the white uniform
covered all their limbs, except for the head.

All the orphanages on this island
belonged to the Skyscrapers. The orphanage only accommodates the children of
the fallen members of the Skyscrapers. As a form of respect, the descendants of
the explorers will be well cared for and facilitated. If there are children of
ordinary citizens who lose both their parents, then they will be sent to their
home country.

....

An orphanage man, 30 years old,
brown skinned, and black hair, found Satrio walking with me in the highlands.
He stepped towards us, then shouted, “Oi, where are you going Satrio!? Who’s
that girl with you!? Come back!”

Satrio looked back, then glanced
at the caretaker with a cold gaze, “I refuse. I want to take this girl home!
Besides, this girl is none of your business, so you don’t need to know!”

“How dare you speak like that!”
The caretaker of the orphanage looked annoyed when Satrio shouted that, he ran
towards us with the intention of catching the rebellious Satrio.

The running speed of the
orphanage man is really fast, it hasn’t been 3 minutes, he is already quite
close to us, he also has amazing agility, he is able to tame very steep
incline.

Even though the distance between
the playground and the highlands is quite far, he must have taken on the task
of catching orphans trying to escape or maybe he was in charge of chasing
people who tried to kidnap orphans, I don’t know, there are a lot of
possibilities, this is not the time to guess. 
Hell, it could be terrible if Satrio is caught.

“Ristia, get on my back.” Satrio
bent down and positioned his hands behind his back.

“Okay.” I climbed on Satrio’s
back, after that he stood up.

Satrio seemed to mind bearing my
weight, maybe he was weakened from exhaustion.

“You are really heavy Ristia, you
are like an object that weighs 100kg,” joked Satrio, he tried hard to position
my body into the right back, both legs were shaking while doing that.

“Y-You impolite boy! Don’t think
of me as an object! Just so you know, I only weigh 40kg!”  I squeezed Satrio’s right shoulder with both
hands, because he really made me nervous.

“Tia, stop it. It hurts so much.
I was just kidding. Forgive me.”

....

After playing catch up with the
caretaker of the orphanage, we finally managed to escape.

Satrio can still run at high
speed even while carrying me, but he seems to be panting and sweating
profusely, he’s been trying hard, I spontaneously massaged his shoulders
gently.

....

Satrio was still carrying me, he
didn’t put me down, nor did he have a reason to continue to carry me. Maybe
Satrio is worried that the caretaker of the orphanage will come after us again,
if that’s true, I have to admit, Satrio’s prudence is number one.

However, I still have doubts
about my first guess, after all I’m a girl and Satrio is a boy, maybe he
deliberately carried me longer so he could enjoy my embrace.

“Wow!” I spontaneously gasped
when I thought about it.

“If you think of anything weird,
I’ll throw you into the ocean, you know.” Satrio apparently knew that I was
thinking something naughty, I was surprised when he said that.

“I-I didn’t think of anything
weird. Really. I was just confused, why don’t you put me down, Tio?”

“Look at your feet, they’re very
dirty, I know you’re a person who doesn’t like getting dirty,” answered Satrio,
with a straight face.

I was immediately fascinated when
I heard Satrio’s answer, he cared about me, he knew that I loved cleanliness.
Even though Satrio is indifferent and always shows a flat expression, he is
very understanding. Men who are understanding to women’s feelings are very
desirable.

For the lord of the universe, my
face became hot and my heart was pounding, I hugged Satrio with all my might
because I couldn’t stand this strange situation.

“Ristia, don’t hug me tightly,
you are getting heavier, this time it has increased to 150kg!”

Satrio mocking me again, he
irritates me.

“What an insolent boy!” I gently
pinched his right ear.

Satrio took a short breath, then
removed my right hand that was pinching his ear, then said, “Soon the mother
star will set, night will come, hold on tight, I will run again.”

“Hmmp! You have to take me home
safe and don’t let my feet get stained again.” I purposely raised my voice to
sound firm and authoritative.

“Understood, My Queen. I promise
to take you home in good condition.” Satrio replied in a low voice.

“Queen your forehead, you’re
mocking me again?” I steeled my fist and prepared to hit Satrio’s head.

“Hahaha,” Satrio chuckled,
“really, I’m not mocking you this time,” he added.

First time I heard Satrio laugh,
maybe Satrio has accepted me completely, then I managed to melt his heart in no
time.

If Satrio sees me as a woman,
then I will see him as a man.

However, I will not give all my trust
and feelings to a man, because my mother once said, “If a woman is drunk on
love and loses logic, then her life is over.”

I don’t really understand what my
mother said, but for sure, something bad will happen if I’m too obsessed with
an invisible object, called love.

....

Suddenly we were confronted by a
thin man. He had black hair, dark brown skin, distended stomach, and blood red
eyes. That mysterious person was wearing a black robe bearing the upside-down
star, he was very dirty, his hair had a lot of dandruff and his skin was
crusty, he was really disgusting.

The mysterious man gave off a
very evil aura, I could see it clearly, the aura was truly terrifying, my whole
body made goosebumps because of it.

“Finally, I found you....” The
strange man’s gaze fell on me, he glared, then grinned widely, all his teeth
were sharp and smeared with fresh blood. He intimidated me and managed to make
my body tremble.

“Could it be.... H-He’s one of
the threats my mother meant!?”
