To the Depth of Abyss

Chapter 85: A Meeting with



Chapter 85: A Meeting with

Main Cave Post, aka Underground City, is a city built underground of the First Mountain, the Blackish Mountain, on Seven Colours Mountain. 

This city is connected to other mountains by mine cart rail. There is a hole at the top of the mountain. That hole becomes the air conditioner for the entire city. 

Despite being built inside a mountain, the activity in the city is crowded. Noises and smoke from factory productivity comes from many directions in the city. 

Downtown / Afternoon 

Afternoon is the time when all activity is stopped. All the workers get out from factories. After work, they come to any restaurant in the city. Get dinner before going home. 

In a certain restaurant. 

"King Bear Meat to table 6!"

"Special Bordan head to table 12!"

All the waitress busy delivering order to all the table in the restaurant. 

The restaurant is full with sweaty workers and all the crowd. They made the air stiflingly hot. That is why, when that time comes, all the restaurant will open their roof, so fresh air from outside will help to refresh the atmosphere. 

At a certain table located at the end of the restaurant. 

"It's your two plates of grilled King Bear Meat, mister."

The waitress gives Liam one of the two plates. That grilled King Bear Meat is so big, like a portion for two people. 

"Can I really have this, young "

The Greedy Young Master, or Liam should call him now with, Ars, stares menacingly to stop him for calling out the name of Young Master. 

"I I am sorry, mister. I was too excited because it's my first time in a long time I eat King Bear Meat, slurp."

Liam speaks as his saliva comes out from the tip of his mouth. 

"It's just a little reward for your hard work. Don't hesitate, just eat."

Just as Ars' told him, Liam does not hesitate to eat his dishes. He holds knife in right hand, and fork in his hand. He begins to cut the King Bear Meat and eating it piece by piece. 

Ars begin to eat to. When suddenly the entire restaurant howling, because there is two women enter the restaurant. 

One is a tall, beautiful, dark-skinned, white caramel haired woman. Plus one little blonde, cute girl. 

The white caramel haired woman looking across the table. Seen looking for someone 

All the men begin to attract the woman's attention to them.

"Hey there, beautiful. Why don't you join us for dinner?"

"Hey! Why bothering to search for someone when you can join us?"

They want the white caramel haired woman to join them in their table. But the white caramel haired woman still focused on searching the person she is looking for. 

Those two beautiful ladies attract Liam's attention too. 

'They are so beautiful. I wonder who they are looking for.'

That person must be so lucky to be sought off by them.

In the next seat, Ars put out a stone, then shot that stone with his finger to Diana. 

Diana realized that little attack, and catch the stone. That helped her to find the person she is looking for. 

"That's him. Let's go, Elisa."

"Do we really have to rejoin with him?"

Elisa finds it troublesome because she has to rejoin with the person she hated. 

All the men surprised because those two beautiful ladies rejoin with just an ordinary guy and a young ordinary boy. 

"Good job for giving us a sign so that we can meet again, Ars," said Diana as she sit. 

"Well, I see you are excited to meet with me again. Does that mean you want me to "

"Excuse me, can I have a ..."

Liam startled because there is one amazing guy, and one beautiful lady, talk casually between him. Plus, the cute blonde girl holding her head with both hands on the table, feeling annoyed. That scene is kinda cute to see. 

The blonde, cute girl noticed Liam's gaze at her. 

"Stop staring at me like that. That is disgusting."

Liam's heart feels like getting pierced by a knife because of the cute little girl sharp words. 

"I I'm sorry!"

The cute blonde girl looks like is in the same age as Liam. But Liam didn't expect her to be that rude. 

"Say, Ars." After ordering her food, Diana back to Ars. "How and when did you get to this city?"

Ars puts on his knife and fork, then shows an expressive smile. 

"Then answer me first. Do you want me to make you " "Hey-hey!" " tonight?"

Ars' words being disturbed by some impolite calls. 

Some men come at their table with uninvited intention. One casually gets close to Diana and talk. "Hey, beautiful, why bother joining this nerd table when you can join us, gentlemen?"

Elisa feels deja vu by that scene. Somehow it makes her smile disparagingly to Ars. 

"How is it?" The guy didn't give up, even though Diana had ignored him. "We will show you what a real man can do?"

That is like an underestimate offer, that they think Diana doesn't know what a real man is. 

As a Legend Hunter, the Legendary Bird Catcher, and Gryphon Rider, who already passed through a lot of difficult fight, she stands up to give a response to them. 

They said they are men, but Diana is still taller than them. 

Diana lifts her right hand, then taps the flirting guy's shoulder. After that she gives them an answer. 

"Can you face a Catastrophe alone and save a city by yourself? Can you still fighting even though you know you will get infected? Can you say you are a piece of shit because you can help your dead friends? If you happened to get through that hard time, I will admit that you are a real man. If you not, then get the fck outta my sight before I beat the shit outta your face?"

Diana's words hit hard to all the men face who think she is attractive. Their appraisal fell from the highest sky to the bottom of abyss because of her treatment just now. 

The atmosphere became noisy like before, even though there is some group who still silent because of recent treat they get.

"Order for the tough lady, and the cute little miss."

The girl's food finally arrived. But before they begin to eat, Diana finally realizes there iss one more fella who sits beside Elisa.

"Who is this boy, Ars?"

Liam's heart racing because suddenly Diana mentioned him. 

"Besides that, you haven't answered my question? Do you want "

"What's your name, and how you ended with our boy, young boy?" asked Diana as she begin to eat. 

"My name is Liam. Before, mister Ars paid me to drive him around Seven Mountains."

"Ooh." Diana swallows her food before continuing. "My name is Diana. And this young miss is Elisa."

Elisa didn't bother to look at Liam when she got introduced. That is rude, but doesn't bother Liam, because he feels like doesn't want to come along with this group. After finishing eating, he will go home peacefully. 

That's what Liam expected. But they are the one who come along with him to his house. 

Liam's house is a two-tiered tile located in the slum. He doesn't know why 'Why they have to come along with me?' 

"What do you want, Ars?" asked Diana.

Ars opened the door house and get in. He casually enters someone else's house without feeling guilty. 

Someone in the house come out from the kitchen. "Welcome... home." And get confused because suddenly his son brings people to the house. 

All five of them gathered in the small plot called the living room. 

"I'm so sorry I can't get you two a seat."

Liam's father feels sorry because he lets two ladies have to stand up. 

"Nah, don't worry about it. Elisa can ask Ars to sit on him, but she was too embarrassed to ask."

"What? No, there is no way I would ask that!"

"See."

Liam's father smile wryly with that ice-breaking that refresh the awkward atmosphere.

When the time is almost dark, the only light they could afford is one white-blue luminous stone-lamp, and it still hard for them to see each other. 

Liam is standing too behind his father. Meanwhile, the person who requests to visit the house, Ars, is sitting with a nice wood chair, that he took out his own. 

"First, let me introduce myself. My name is Conor. As you can see, I'm just unlucky man who got his two hands and one leg replaced with armored-limbs."

Conor said that, but with the blur light, they cannot see his body clearly. There, Ars took out one bright luminous stone-lamp, and put that lamp on the floor. 

Once again, Ars surprised the people who watch him did that magic, except for Elisa. 

Ars then bends his body to look at Conor more detail. 

Armored-limbs are an artificial body part. Usually, if a person has armored-limbs part of their body, it is because they once got Infected. 

"Do you get those three armored-limbs in one go, or ...?" asked Diana. 

"Yes, I got this when I became part of the Hunters who conquered this mountain."

Conor is a Legend Hunter, same as Diana. 

That startled Elisa, a person who once fight for Hunters freedom is now suffering poverty. Her eyes became teary. Then she looks at Liam, the young boy that she treats rude before. 

"Does that hurt when you moved them?" asked Ars.

"At first, yes, but it's not after you get used to it."

"Why do you become inactive? Having two or three body part replaced with armored-limbs won't slow you down, right?"

"Actually, I became inactive because..."

Conor lifts his shirt, shows a large scar on his stomach. 

That was the biggest scar Elisa has ever seen. 

"I couldn't believe you can still alive with that scar," said Diana. 

"Well yes, but actually no, Lady of the Wind."
