Ekolia Lite 6 Chapter 5

'These are…'

"Hey, mutt. Come back here if you're done" yelled Tokaya from the distance.

Tenko got startled because of it, "Ah, yes."

She hurriedly went running back to her group nervously. The king only glanced at her for a moment, but the others… the students, they gritted their teeth.

"What the h.e.l.l was that…"

"Felt like she was cheating."

"You mean she got cheat power."

"But Sahara's is better I think, having 2 abilities at once."

"Yeah, I think so too. But is really p.i.s.ses me off. How can Tenko got such a thing, was that a golem?"

"This is so unfair!"

"Calm down, dude. When we level up, we're going to get cool powers too and even better than that. I'm sure of it."

"Yeah…"

When she knows her name being called out, Sahara Dimoi glared daggers at Tenko, glancing her with fierce sharp eyes. Thinking along the lines of, "How dare she stole my spotlight."

Tenko didn't notice it, and she ignored the students murmuring about her... like she always do.

When she arrived at her bullies, Tokaya grabbed her wrist and then looked at her in the eye. "Uh-um…" Tenko is getting even more nervous since their face is close to each other. Tokaya soon back away and pulled her to the back. "You okay, shrimp?" asked Chika.

"Ahh, yes."

Tokaya left the scene and the other two followed her while dragging Tenko with them. Having all of them received their powers, the king spoke, "Now then, you're all—"

His speech was abruptly cut when he noticed Tokaya and the group walked out of the scene. "Hey, where are you going?" asked the teacher.

Tokaya s.h.i.+fted her eyes, and muttering her words in cold look, "None of your business."

The students gasped, and the teacher was left speechless.

Tokaya turned her head back to the front and continue to walk away, while the two other bullies released Tenko, and told her to follow. Sahara and her group stare at them as they leave the throne room, "Humph" she hushed.

…

As they walking down the stairs after leaving the room, they were greeted by a few female soldiers guarding outside the throne room. They puffed up their chest and bowed, one of them asked, "Honorable Travelers, do you require any a.s.sistance?"

Tokaya took the lead and said, "Guide us to the outside, and don't ask anything."

The guard nodded, "At once."

Judging from her appearance, her armor, she is the kind that one would say… a Knight.

Leaving her group behind, the knight guided Tokaya's group to the outside. They pa.s.sed through many layers of large extravagant halls, statues, and many more just to get to the entrance. Though in reality, it was actually a shorter trip than how it seems.

The gate to the outside is enormous and it has many carvings on it, they literally staring at the ceiling when they look up. Though, only Tenko dropped her jaw on the floor.

*G-r-r-n-n-n-n-gh*

The gate is slowly opening. Bright light s.h.i.+ning through their eyes. Appreciating the moment, they just saw a whole new world with their own eyes. Tenko turned her head to Anko and then to Chika, they both looked at her and smiled. Tenko wondered why…

As they step outside the gate, the refres.h.i.+ng air of the unpolluted atmosphere pa.s.sed through them. Tokaya looked around the scenery, the enormously large building at the center of the city caught her attention. As she s.h.i.+fted her eyes around, she saw many other buildings close to them that are uniquely shaped, unlike anything she has seen in her previous world.

These buildings are old and primitive. Talking about how old fas.h.i.+on they are, the outfits of its people are nothing but rags, with a few exceptions. And they too are odd… Tokaya can see it from here, there are some people that have tails and fur attached to their body.

She chuckled, "Heh" Tokaya then turned her head to Tenko and then smiled seeing Tenko's jaw still falling.

The latter realized that she was being watched and then quickly notice that Tokaya is looking at her. After a warm smile, Tokaya then said, "Welcome to the New World… Tenko."
