Chapter 48:

The Escape From Vurudora

The Creature Hunter: Soul Of The Wind


Orano and Caitrin eventually managed to escape the arena thanks to Miko's help. After a while, they met Lydia in one of the streets and made their way to the third port together. And every time they ran across a street, more Emperal soldiers appeared around them and started to chase them.

While they were running, Lydia looked behind and said loudly,

"They are getting more crowded! We have to lose them before we reach the port!"

Bachi said,

"Leave it to me!"

He then threw two of his papers that he carried and blew some walls. This made rocks fall to the ground and closed the path that they were getting chased at. They all thought that was all, but just then they arrived at the port, Another soldier unit appeared in front of them.

They had blocked the way to the ship and pointed their guns at them. And while they did that, somebody came among them and stepped forward.

It was Natsuki Shigeru once more.

He grinned widely and shouted,

"You thought you could get away from me that easily, didn't you? I think you're more naive than I thought!"

Caitrin looked at him with an angry expression on her face and said,

"Isn't that obsessive psychopath going to let us go for once?"

Miko then said loudly as she swung her spear,

"I got this one!"

She then created a big ice wall in front of them and an ice bridge for them to enter the ship.

Natsuki seemed like he didn't expect this to happen at all. The egotistical smile on his face suddenly changed when he saw the wall of ice in front of him and his expression turned into a nervous one.

After all of them entered the ship, Miko created a final wall to protect themselves from the incoming bullets.

Natsuki shouted,

"You fools! Break down that wall with dynamites! We can't let them go!"

A soldier nervously replied,

"We don't have the time, Sir! they'll run away!"

While they were shouting, they finally sailed out to sea and drove away from there. Since they were exhausted and they ran for minutes, they sat down and gasped for air.

Caitrin said,

"We almost ran through two kingdoms. I hope the same thing doesn't happen next time."

"Where are we going now?" Miko said as she took deep breaths.

Orano replied as he put his sword on his belt,

"To Idrisud. I'll meet my friend there. After that, we'll leave to investigate where the other Rifts are. For now, we can be safe on this ship. But when we get to land, we may have to act in quietly again."

Caitrin said sarcastically,

"It's no problem, except that all the events we've been through weren't quiet or safe at all."

And as they rested for a couple of seconds, Lydia looked around and then looked at Orano and said,

"Then I will look around for now. Anyone could have infiltrated the ship before we got here."

And she left there to patrol the ship.

And as Lydia walked away, Both Bachi and Miko looked at Orano,

And Miko said,

"Let us look around too. Maybe we'll find something useful."

And after everyone left. Orano and Caitrin walked slowly to the corner of the ship and looked at the Kingdom of Vurudora. 

They realized that the journey they had been on all this time felt like it was coming to an end. And all the hardships and pain they had, they still remembered them all. But Caitrin was happy that they had even made it this far. Everyone was safe and she was very close to her goal.

She then looked at Orano with a slightly nervous look and said,

"Do you think they'll be fine alone? After all, more people will come after us because they saw Miko and Bachi traveling with us. And since they're wanted criminals like us, doesn't that makes more dangerous for us to travel with?"

Orano slowly gazed to the city lights of Vurudora and replied,

"It's true that we're Wanted Criminals. But it is also true that they had endured different kinds of difficulties and made it here to Vurudora. If they couldn't stand these challenges to the end, then it is a mistake for them to go on this journey from the beginning.

If we continue to argue about these issues without making any move at all, we may never reach a conclusion. So it's our responsibility to take risks when the time comes."

Caitrin slowly looked at the stars above her and said,

"I think you're right."

They had already made a choice that they could no longer return back from and they had no choice but to move forward. So they found a place to sleep that night and traveled for a few days until they finally arrived at Idrisud.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The kingdom of Idrisud was a decidedly hardworking and powerful kingdom among all kingdoms, as it was home to sorcerers, witches, people who can use elemental magic, and has people such as Neresu Poteus and his people that is specialized as skillfully controlling the water element with the name "Billionea".

And even if people from outside of this kingdom usually come here to trade potions, join the sorcerer and witch society, or work as knights, the natural beauty and spacious air of the city has affected every person who has come here, to this day.

While Ether and Belimore were fascinating with their own features, The place Orano and others reached was a city called "Bubbleshore" and although this city was not as famous as other cities, it was considered the most important city after Ether and Belimor, as it was home to the people of Billionea and the castle of "Pluviophile". 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And when Orano and others finally arrived at the port of Bubbleshore, they got out of the ship and it was time to say goodbye for now,

Tatsumi looked at them and said,

"Be very careful throughout the time we are separated. Do not trust anyone, do not contact anyone, or engage in any business. We're so close to the end, and we can't let it go to waste because of a small mistake. If you get into trouble, use your Zon devices if you are inside the kingdom. And if you have any problems with them too, send me a letter. I will contact you as soon as possible in both ways."

Miko looked at Tatsumi deep in the eyes with confidence and trust, 

Then she said,

"Understood. We will."

Caitrin then looked at them with a slightly sad expression on her face and said,


"We're leaving before we even get to know each other. Doesn't that bother you two?"

Miko smiled and said,

"No, it doesn't matter at all. Tatsumi saved my life from a very dangerous disease and didn't want anything in return. That makes me owe him. So I want to pay him back."

Bachi then smiled too and added,

"We trust each other, isn't that enough? And the next time we meet, we can get to know each other better, right? I'm sure we'll have a lot of fun together when that time comes!"

His words made Caitrin relieved even a little bit so she smiled slightly and said,

"You are right." 

Then Lydia said,

"So this is a goodbye for now." 


"It looks like it."

After their conversation, they slowly walked towards a ship and got on the board. And as they sailed, they waved at them and got far away.
