A young man with black irises walked up to the white-haired young man who was sleeping. The pale face of the young man with white hair was visible, but the young man with black irises actually grinned at his sight.
He drew his hand closer intending to wipe the young man's clean white mane. However,
"Keep your dirty hands off me!!!" Said Zuka arrived while staring intently, but also glazed.
Avren who saw it stared at him sharply, but instantly the gaze immediately turned into a gentle gaze.
"You're getting brave, Zuka." Avren said and immediately strangled Zuka's neck.
The gold-mannered young man tried to release the grip on his neck even though the results were in vain. His body was too limp to be able to fight the Avren back then.
Brug!!
"Akh" Rintih Zuka as Aven threw it like a used sack.
Avren has really changed now. Not like the Aven he used to channel. He was completely controlled by the head of Inimicus.
"Why are you doing this?!" Ask Zuka.
"Because you have dared to fight. Besides you're just my weapons and valuables." Said Avren and used his chain to bind Zuka.
"What do you want to do?! " Tanya Zuka was terrified.
Avren smiled and pulled out a knife from his pocket. Zuka's eyes were round seeing that. He did not have enough strength to fight. What's gonna happen to her next?
Zuka closed her eyes tightly not wanting to see what Aven would do to her. Yet..
"Akhs... Zuka's..." Zuka opened her eyes again. He looked at the young man in front of him in pain. The chains that bound his body were already broken.
"A-avren.." Well, it's not wrong that it's Avren.
"Quick get out of here!!" Avren exclaimed and a portal appeared behind him.
"But what about you?" Ask Zuka. Of course he can't just leave his friends, right?
"I'll hold him. Get the fuck out of here! Trust me." Avren said with a warm smile. The smile that Zuka misses.
Zuka nodded and ran towards the portal. He slightly turned around before entering and smiled sweetly. "Thank you Avren! I promise I'll save you! " She said and ran in.
After that, the portal closed. The chains around Aven moved wildly and began to destroy what was around her.
"AARRGH!!! YOU USELESS HUMAN!!" Avren exclaimed, no. Precisely exclaimed the head of Inimicus was upset. How could the soul of the body he controlled just slip away?
Avren insists his chain smash the table and bottle containing the potion that was the target of his anger. "Just look. I'll find you!!!" His words are angry.

On the other hand, Zion is seen sitting waiting for Hali while preparing a fire to burn the catch later.
While the lightning element controlling youth came out of the water and brought some sizable fish along with him.
"Wah wow... You're good too. But how do you catch that fish? What's with your magic?" Zion asked, remembering that Hali did not bring anything when he entered the water earlier.
"No, I used a sharp stone rock at the bottom of the pond. If I use electricity in the water it could be dangerous later." Answer Hali. There's point. Water is the best conductor of electricity.
"Okay, for the fire I've prepared. Let's start ba-"
BYUR!!!
Zion's words were cut off when something suddenly fell into the pond, making the splashing water wet her.
Zion and Hali noticed what had fallen into the pool. Until the moment the young figure appeared and asked for help.
"Please.. Uhuk! I can't swim!" Hali quickly jumped into the water and helped the young man.
But wait, that voice sounded familiar. Plus white hair.. Don't tell me it's Zuka.
Zion looked increasingly worried until Hali finally managed to bring the young man out of the water.
And sure enough, he was Zuka. Hali laid the young man's body on the ground. And Zion approached him immediately. No doubt, he is Zuka.
Unknowingly a clear grain dripped from Zion's eyelids. Happy but also worried. Glad that he had finally reunited with Zuka and was worried to see the wounds on her body.
"Your condition is much worse than last time..." Said Zion slowly. He tore off the tip of his jacket and closed the wound on Zuka's neck.
"Avren is absolutely outrageous... He did this to you..."
He's pissed. Angry, but what can he do now? In this situation, let alone being stuck in a ravine that was somehow deep was quite annoying.
"[NonMagic: heal]" A magic circle was formed and slowly healed Zuka. Hali could only be silent. This was the first time he had seen Zion to such an extent.
Pock
But Zion stopped her magic instantly when she felt someone stroking her hair. As she looked, Zuka looked at her warmly while smiling faintly.
"That's enough. Thanksmeme it... Zion." Zuka.
Zion could no longer say the word. Without aba he immediately hugged Zuka just like that. After a long time they finally meet again. It's obvious Zion's happy to be back with one of her families.
Are they twins who have been separated for a long time or what?
"Z.. Zion's tight." Hearing that, Zion instantly released her embrace. So happy he got a little carried away.
"Sorry! How's your condition? Is anyone still sick?" Ask Zion.
Zuka shook her head small. "No. Your abilities have increased apparently. Thanks to Zion."
"The same" Reply Zion. But wait, this incident is the same as when he first met Zuka, right? Remembering that made Zion chuckle a little. Is Zuka indeed a hobby of appearing to arrive and fall into the pool?
Hali and Zuka who saw Zion's strange expression were confused. What's with the kid?
"Zion's? You why?" Ask Hali.
Feeling his name on the call he looked up. "It's okay, I'm just thinking a little. Do you have a hobby of jumping into a pool even if you can't swim, Zuka?" Ask Zion. Zuka was initially speechless trying to understand the word of the ruby iris youth.
Until the moment he recalled, "you're mocking me huh? You suck!" Zuka immediately turned her eyes in annoyance. What does Zion think she wants to drown like that?
But next, Zuka's eyes actually caught another young man who was speechless looking at their interactions.
"Thank you for helping me earlier. I'm Zuka Ambrilz, Zion's brother. It's nice to meet you!" Said Zuka smilingly looking at Hali.
"Ah, I'm Hali Vandelous. Same, nice to meet you." Answer Hali.
I don't know why Zuka was staring at him. Then turned his gaze to Zion and looked back at Hali.
"What is your relationship?"
Okay, the question arrived that made Hali and Zion look at each other. Instantly their faces flushed.
Wait, relationships? Meanin?
"K-we.. Just friends!" Zion answered with a nod of Hali. Zuka who heard that sighed a little.
'I thought you thought you thought of him as family. Disappointing answer.' Inner Zuka.
"Why did you fall here?" Zion's question broke Zuka's daydream.
"Ah, that... I ran away with the portal that Aven made and kept running not looking at the road in front of me and fell into the abyss." The answer is short and concise.
"It's so simple." Hali. While Zuka only scratched the back of her head that did not itch.
"Oh how long have you been here? " Tanya Zuka recalled that they were in the abyss right now.
"Since last night when Aven pulled us here." Answer Zion.
"But why did Hali get caught?"
"My intention is to help Zion who's in tow." Zuka who heard that just nodded. He circulated his gaze around and saw some monster carcasses lying with the chest torn off.
Looks like Zion has taken their cores so they can't be used again by Aven.
"You don't want to get out of here?"
Hali and Zion looked at each other. "Pengin, but it's too deep it's hard to get out." Hali.
Zuka stood up and looked around. "Come with me! I know a way out"
Zion and Hali only followed the white-haired young man. From his expression looked so confident as if hypnotizing them to follow him.
And it seems like their decision was not wrong. Zuka stopped in front of the ravine wall which contained quite a number of magic crystals. Then he turned to look at the two friends and smiled.
"Good boy... Rich chicks who follow their mothers." The Zuka chirps that made an imaginary crossroads instantly appeared on their foreheads.
So Zuka bullied them?
"Haha... The chicks... If you're roasted rich chicken tuh. palagi in roast with high-voltage electric current." Said Zion which made Zuka instantly speechless.
Really, Zion is creepy.
"Okay, this is a safe place to get out. There were no monsters attached to the ravine wall and the location was also safe. We can get out of here." Zuka.
I don't know why Zion and Hali are a little hesitant. "How do you know about that?"
"I go to this place often. Besides the surface distance is only 10 meters deep not very deep." Said Zuka while preparing to use her magic. "[Which pitch]"
A faded light appeared under Zuka before then the young man jumped out easily. While the two young men stared in surprise with their mouths open.
That easy Zuka came out?
"Woy! Hurry along!! The safe point will change every five minutes... Don't take monsters!! " Zuka exclaimed to awaken their daydream.
Hearing that, quickly Hali and Zion instantly used their magic to jump out.
And sure enough, not too deep. Zion chuckled a little. This time his predictions were wrong. Not everything Nero knows.
