Chapter [PT2]: Identity Hidden, Failed?

.../// 5 Years ago ///...

...After i ran away from home, I head to the forest that was my mother left me before she passed away. It was already written in a will. In the heart of the forest, I stumble across a statue. He was handsome, I feel like i adore him in a good away. I feel at ease, I felt no harm any more ever since. I practice with the statue beside me. Not only that, but I often fall asleep on the statues lap. I was small enough to get comfortable....

...One day i was woken up by a large hand patting head. Seeing the statue was alive i was happy like a child. I learned many things to him, turning me into my boyish side. He cooks the best food i ever had. More over, Whenever i drew what i want to eat or wrote it he come up with it instantly. The forest has all we need. I ask if he had a name, he said he doesn't have which shocked me. His Status and class was above every entity in the world. I gave him a name which used up my mana. I fall into a coma for 2 weeks. It worried him very much. After that day he became like a father figure to me. Raising me like his own child, Before i depart the Daxian forest a month ago. He gave his family name, but he told me not to tell anyone. Only use it when i am facing a higher Monster, deities or Land Gods. He gave me his blessing and set me off. Also.. My known Dad-Mom is always with us.. ...

.../// Present ///...

......A couple of hours before evening, the Elites have come by the forest. They are fully prepared if fight occurs. They waited at the border and called out for Kumo. Veronica called out for several times. Before a giant hand hushed her. It was the Orc come to pick them. Every is about to transform in their battle suit. Veronica stopped them and to stay calm. They stared at each other for a moment before Veronica remembered about the Pendant. The Orc giggles. They all stand back a little and about to prepare. ......

Tekumo: You must be the guests. Pardon my rudeness, but we are not allowed to cost any disturbance when we are close to a nest. *points up*

...The Orc points the nest of a Red Hood Bird. Everyone looked up and saw a sleeping mother bird. They all start to calm down, Tekuno takes the pendant and lead the Elites inside the forest. Passing through the barrier, The mana flow was great but gentle like the soft waves. Everyone felt at ease and follows the Orc behind....

Tekuno: I heard everything from Kumo. I live here and i raised Kumo when she ran away from home.

Eva: You raised her?

Darriax: Sounds a story for me.

Tekuno: See yourself..

...Tekuno brushes his calloused hands to the leaves and start to show the memories have come by to the forest the past years. Darriax can't believe his eyes and just sighs in defeat. Kioku Plant copies the movement and resemblances of the area, and it will show by brushing through its leaves. Using the Magicules around the small forest it uses it by drawing it like a memory....

...Once they reached the open area of the forest, the heart. Kumo was waiting at the table outside. She is eating with joy like she misses her home. They all can't believe what they are seeing. Veronica asks Kumo Where and Who they will meet. The chef that she mentioned. Kumo swallowed before answering....

Kumo: *gulp* Him!

Veronica: ... H-Him?

Darriax: Ah So you are the chef that she was talking about!

Eva: Pardon his rudeness..

Tekuno: Its alright!

Felix: Mr. Orc? Do you perhaps live in here?

Kumo: He lives here ever since my mother still has this forest. *munches*

All: Hmn?

Akume: W-What did you just say?!

Vale & Valir: Since your mother still, has it?

Urania: That means..

Veronica: YOU OWN THIS FOREST?!-

...Veronica was cutted by Kumo by hushing her down. Kumo explained why the forest need to have a gentle environment. Having shout is twice louder because of the barrier....

Darriax: Tsk! I thought we can fight this guy..

Kumo: You choose Death if you did-..

Akume: Eh? He looks like an Normal Orc to me..

Kumo: *gulp* Its like a wolf in sheep's clothing! Sir Mirdori!-..

Akume: It Doesn't make sense..

...Tekuno then asks them to join Kumo. They hesitate for a but before joining her. So then, They had a little bonding and call it a day off. Felix sang a song that fits around the forest. The gentleness of the tune and hymn, the small creatures came to listen. Darriax and Akume interpreted Felix which cases the Creatures away. This made Felix got angry and threatens the two....

...The sun sets down, the stars starts appearing from the sky. " I would protect this forest.." Darriax said. Everyone is shocked about his statement. It was their first time hearing Darriax protecting something. Veronica called out for everyone for them to go. Kumo stopped immediately stopped them....

Kumo: Wait wait wait! Are you going now?

Veronica: Yes, We are early tomorrow because of the Mage Ceremony.

Kumo: Ah.. I see.. Are you going to make the report right?

Urania: Actually we don't know what to report to Palace. The encounter was not we expected. We have a found the reason why Mr. Tekuno chased people away from the forest.

Kumo: Yes, Illegal Logging is forbidden in Daxian Forest. It was a home for many creatures. Well, Since i consider you as my friends. Of course, i got you covered! *waves scroll*

...Kumo pulled out a rolled paper with a stamp. The design was quite unusual, they start to doubt about the scroll. Kumo hands it to Veronica and gives a soft smile. Veronica takes the scroll and thanked Kumo. The surrounding is getting darker and colder. This make Vale and Felix got uneasy and hid behind Valir. This makes Tekuno giggle, he starts to clean the table as he cast a rune. Everyone got stunned and smiles as the surrounding become brighter like morning. Kumo stood there and tears fall. She wiped them away as she listens to the voices. Running inside the tree house, she whimpers in Tekuno's Arms. The others came by inside to take a look and just to see their new friend's sorrow. They head outside to give her space and waited for her to calm down. ...

...After a while a small man have exits the house. They are shocked to see a male with an unbelievable aura. The Male's aura was same as a forest spirit. Daxian Forest was full of secrets so as the current owner. The man was pretty and handsome in the same time. Cuteness are also into him....

Que: Good Evening, You must Kumo's friends. She calmed down, no worries..

Valir: When and where did you-..

Que: I am watching you the whole time! Upstairs!

All: Ehh..

Que: I'm Que, Kumo's adoptive Dad-Mom.

Valir & Vale: Dad-Mom?

Que: Mom will be suitable than me instead of Dad. Since he calls Tekuno Dad.

Eva: May we know what entity you are?

Que: Go- *muffled* hngn?

Tekuno: Dear, You talk too much~ -giggles- . He is a High Class Nymph. Nymph like him have body of their own not just spirit.

Urania: I see~.. Indeed, It's quite surprising to see a man with such a power and Aura. Divine.

Kumo: *realization*...

Akume: *Shocked* Since when did you get there!?

Kumo: ... That means..

...Everyone stares at Kumo, She seems to realize something. Kumo pointed at Tekuno and Que's hand. A nice polished ring was on their ring fingers. Everyone seems to noticed what it means, very obviously....

Veronica: They're married?..

Leo: They are.. Congrats..

...Tekuno and Que hid their hands and tries to make an excuse. Everyone seems happy for them. Veronica turned to Kumo to tell her it's time for them to head back. Just seeing Kumo with a red face, unable to speak and was stunned. Que was worried and asks her but only to faint with her nose bleeding. Que is about to fall into tears because of panic. Tekuno calmed him down before he cries. ...
