Chapter 61: chapter 61 - "M.T.I.T.H.A.T"
After they arrived, Nāgāntaka went back to Taufik\'s chest and became a tattoo, so it\'s the three of them right now.
"But Brother"
Arman Look Around, trying to find something that... Life.
"Why is so desolate here? it\'s something like there\'s no life Around"
Taufik and Kaela look Around too, and there\'s indeed no sign of life around here.
"Yeah, young master is right, there\'s indeed no sign of life"
Taufik tries to search for something with his detection skills, different from before After Taufik came to this world and when he first met the Green Dragon who had a presence that is one with Nature.
Because The Mana in this world was so abundant, everything in this world had a Mana on it, so Taufik couldn\'t detect them with a detection skill that only captured a Mana.
With the help of Taufik \'Imagination Magic\' Taufik has Upgarede This detection skill so instead of sensing Mana only, this detection skill can directly sense a"life", so if there is a life around, no matter if it is under the Ground or Above the sky, as long it\'s a living being, Taufik can detect it.
"There\'s indeed no sign of living being around here... It\'s so strange"
Taufik said after he was done using his detection skill.
\'How something like this could happen?\'
"Let\'s walk around and maybe we will find something"
Taufik then takes his Katana out, just in case, because the scariest enemy is the enemy that you can see or sense.
-------
A few hours later
After walking for a few hours by now, three of them still find any sign of living being around.
the only thing that they found was a tree that looked like have been trampled by something so big, many trees.
Kaela look at the trees, with a questioning look on her face.
"... What has been happening on this Continent? Has a war happened here? A civil war?"
Kaela asks many questions in one go.
"... I don\'t think so, this was not a civil war, but something else"
Taufik looked around, with his \'Sky eyes\' skill, Taufik found a similar case like those trees, and they have the same characteristics.
"Whoever does this, comes from the same Source...
Taufik widens his sky eyes, to look where the culprit is from, and what he finds shocks him.
....The Sea? And they heading in one direction too, what is this?"
"From the sea, it is the same creepy island as before, brother?"
Arman said, remember the huge Kraken they met before.
"Maybe something like that, whatever it is, it\'s not a good thing"
Taufik looks at the trail that the \'thing\' left behind and makes his decision.
"Let\'s follow this trial and maybe we will find something"
--------
After a few hours following the trace that the \'thing\' leaves behind, an evening approaches them.
The trail leads them to a big mountain that is covered with snow, that mountain is maybe twenty times bigger than Mount Everest on Earth, and that mountain is located in the center of the snow Continent.
It\'s a very very very big mountain.
Although the mountain is still far away, uniquely, when viewed from a distance, the mountain peak is flat.
"Woahhh, that mountain is so big, but why the peak is flat? What do you think, brother?
"I don\'t know, maybe the blue dragon lives there? Who knows, what do you think Kaela?"
"Wait, wait a minute, I have to take note of this"
Kaela answers while writing something on her Notebook.
Kaela has been doing this since they began their journey, even when they arrived in the desert Continent, but she didn\'t write much because they already know much about the desert Continent.
But different about this snow Continent, this Continent still a mastery to others, and there\'s not much a record about this Continent, so when they arrived at this Continent Kaela been writing many things in her Notebook.
"Hufft I\'ve been discovering many things on this Continent, After we back home, I will write a book about this journey, what title is good?"
Kaela said, closing her Notebook.
"Ahhh, sorry what you say again?"
"No, forget it"
Taufik then looks around and sees is almost evening.
"Alright, we will stay here for the night, and continue our journey tomorrow"
Taufik then makes a new tent with his imagination magic, because they leave their previous tent on Kraken Head island.
"Here, do it like before!"
Taufik said to Arman after he tossed the tent to him.
"Leave it to me, brother"
Taufik then looks at Kaela, wanting to ask him to make a bonfire.
"And you-...
But he sees Kaela already made the fire.
... Continued with what you do"
"Hehe, I will"
Kaela giggled already knowing what Taufik would order her.
---------
After much work later.
Taufik, Arman, and Kaela sitting circled the bonfire.
"Brother, where do you think all the animals have gone, all the way here, we never saw even if it just one, we don\'t see any animal at all, is it also because of that \'Thing\'?"
"Maybe, or maybe there\'s no animal in the first place at all, we will know it when we talk with the Native of this land"
Taufik answers while taking the food out of his inventory, and giving it to Arman and Kaela who are still busy with their Notebooks.
"Thank you"
"But Big Brother, we still can find the blue dragon too, are we really have to climb that big mountain?"
Heard that, Taufik looked at Arman with a questioning look.
"... Are you stupid, your dragon why do you need to climb if you can fly to it directly?"
Arman was silent for a while.
"... Yeah, You\'re right, why did I even think to climb that big mountain?"
Taufik Shakes his head, then looks at Kaela.
"What are you writing right now, Kaela?"
But Kaela didn\'t answer him, and still focused on his Notebook.
"Kaela!"
"Hmm? Ahhh, this? I just wrote about that island, I forgot to write it before, there are not any records about that being, so I will record it for others to know"
Taufik was slightly surprised when he heard about that.
"No records, so how can you know about that beforehand?"
"Yes, there\'s was indeed no records about that being, I only know about that from my father"
"Your father?"
"Hmm, you remember that my mother\'s is a human, right?"
Taufik nods his head, giving a sign to Kaela to continue her story.
"When I was not born yet, my father took my mother on a journey like what we do right now, so my mother would know about this world, once a time when I was still a kid, my father told me a story about that island, but at that time I thought it\'s was just Fabricated story that he made, so I already forget about that, only after you told me about that weird-looking fruit that I remember that story"
"It\'s so, your father is a romantic one, I respect him"
"Hehe, thank you, that\'s why I want to write about it, so the others will know that \'island\' existence, what name do you think fits that being? A moving island or trap island?"
"Me, me~ I want to make a name too"
Arman said raising his hand.
"What about, \'Moving Trap Island That Have A Tentacle\' What do you think, Kaela?"
Heard that Kaela was smiling awkwardly, Taufik just Shook his head, and said "Stupid".
"What About, Kraken?"
"Kraken? Hmm, I like that, let\'s use that name"
Kaela said, write it in her Notebook.
"Ehh, but how with mine? It\'s a great name \'Moving Trap Island Tha-"
"Arman, stop! Just eat your food and go to sleep"
"... Alright"
Arman said, eating his food but still grumbling about That \'name\' thing.
"It\'s a great name, you can feel greatness from that name, and it also explains what the being is, a \'Moving Trap Island That Have A Tentacle\' See it\'s a great name"
"Arman... -"
"I\'m eating, I don\'t say anything"
"Yeah, yeah, just eat!"
Taufik shakes his head again.
---------
Next morning.
Nothing happened through the night, there\'s no sign of any animal at all, even there\'s no insect sound at all.
\'This was so abnormal, what have happened in this Continent?\'
Taufik though, this whole night Taufik didn\'t rest at all, he stayed outside the whole night and kept his detection skill active, but he didn\'t sense anything, which he thought was abnormal.
Taufik then looked at the Big Mountain in the distance.
\'Look like we really have to check that mountain, if the blue dragon really lives there, we can find out the situation here\'
Taufik though. Then go waking Arman and Kaela.
