Blood Of Platinum
Chapters 145. Beautiful Gem and Soul bag. 6
“Since it's mine, I want it back”
A sentence said confidently by Kaito made the two brothers smile happily.
‘Forget about parting for now, what is clear now is getting that memory. If I don't get it, I'll never be able to get out of this place’ Kaito thought
Finally, they decided to head to the bar. After leaving the inn, the three went to another area in the residential area. It was the path to the stairs they came to for the first time. Since the nearest road from their location was the one with the stairs descending, they decided to pass through it.
“Kaito, you remember the way, right? We passed this place while taking Kino to the hospital that time” Ryou saw Kaito
“I still remember it well. You don't have to doubt my memory, Ryou”
“But you're the one who lost his memory. Of course I should doubt your memory”
“Ryou, that's too cruel. Don't talk like that to Kaito-san” Kino trying to calm her sister
“.....” and Kaito choose not to reply
Ryou's words are like a deadly attack when spoken and Kaito is still in mental repair mode.
Not much was said after that. They reached the descending stairs and went straight down. After taking the straight path, the foreign territory seemed to welcome the arrival of the three.
“You how many times I still don't like this place” Ryou said
“Not just you. I would never like a damp, shabby, dirty place and not be friendly with my nose This” Kaito details a lot of things he hates from that foreign place
Kino chose not to listen and look around the place. He was still curious about the structure of his territory.
“Until now I still can't use my common sense to describe this place”
“Kino? What's up?” Ryou looked at the older brother
“The region is really in town but no one from the townspeople cares about this. In addition, many store buildings have floors that are higher than the shopping area but seem invisible. This is really a foreign region” continued Kino
“Because of that is why it is called a foreign region and place. The kids call this place, right? In addition, if this place is known by the residents of the city then hell like the black market there will be no” Ryou replied the older brother
Kaito walked slightly in front of the sister's brother. He was silent for a few minutes. Until finally when they passed the market stall in the foreign territory, Kaito gave his opinion.
“We're done questioning this place. I don't think it matters anymore whether this place is another part of the ‘world or not. We're back here to say goodbye. Think of it as so”
The two brothers fell silent. The word ‘parting’ that Kaito said seemed to also apply to the condition of the three teenagers after this.
‘After everything, we will also part’ that is the content of the hearts of the three
About five to ten minutes walking, they arrived at a turn that led them to a narrow familiar road.
“You two know this road?” ask Kino
“Truely too, you've never been through this road huh? If we take it straight earlier, we will go to the demon-created human territory yesterday. If we come here, we will get to bar” Ryou told his brother
“So”
“This is the first time you've come, Kino. I hope you don't expect much good stuff” Kaito added
Kino smiled and replied while looking at the surrounding area.
“I'm fine, Kaito-san. But the buildings around here are empty. They really left this place just like”
“In front of the bar it is also the same as this place. I still remember the moment when I threw a garbage bag full of bottles at the late Justin while fighting him”
“I heard from Arkan-san's story in the hospital. It must have been so great” Kino praised Kaito's action
“And even more powerful, Kaito called the gorilla with the designation ‘deiang’ in front of him. A very good progress” Ryou praised him for something else that almost no one else realized
They almost got to the bar. A small change began to be seen because the place was like a different place to some of its sides.
Kaito pointed to a building with a sign bearing the [Barre des Noirs] on it.
“It's bar belongs to mr manager”
“Bar it...bar belongs to Joel-san and where Arkan-san works?” Kino saw the bar from a distance
Ryou watched for a moment the place.
“It looks a little different. The writing on it has changed as well. Looks like the renovation of the door and the wall has been completed”
When they got there, they saw the bar door open. And as the three of them tried to enter, they saw countless people inside.
“Excuse”
“Happy da...ah! Kino! You all come?!” Joel approached and greeted them
“Welcome, you three”
The ones who greeted them were Joel and Arkan who were at the bar. There were other customers in the bar.
The view of the bar has changed a lot. The floor has been painted in a bright brown color, the walls and doors have also been repaired. The decoration is also more alive and some additional ornaments are placed as sweeteners.
“I'm glad you guys came. Sit down for a minute”
“Thank you very much, mr. manager” said Kaito
The three of them sat down at the spot shown by Joel. Not long after that, he whispered.
“I will expel them all for our private area. Wait a minute ya”
“Eh? Expel?”
Kino didn't understand his point but it turned out that he had completely evicted all of his customers. The owner of a bar is a very bar.
“Hoi, drunken handyman! Come back tonight! Hurry home and leave your money at the table! I have a little important business now!”
“Oi Little Jey! We haven't had a drink here in a long time!” said a customer
“I have more important guests than your days! Go and come back tonight if you want! There!!”
They saw an interesting show. The action of a bar owner who forcibly evicted his customers even to the point of withdrawing their hands for refusing to leave. Already so, he forced his customers to pay in full for everything. While Arkan who was standing behind the bar table was just busy arranging drinks while cleaning the glasses.
“Business in a place like this is indeed draining my emotions. Ahahahaha” said Joel after successfully evicting his customers
Ryou whispered to Kino who was sitting next to him.
“He's crazy huh? Expel its customers like that but still bill its payment”
“Ryou, don't talk so”
“Honestly, you agree with me right?”
“Umm...it...” Kino just smiled wryly as he tried not to admit it.
“See, right? If you've just admitted it means he does have a psychiatric problem”
“I'm talking reality here”
“You should be able to learn to stop saying rude things, Ryou”
Ryou silently heard the elder brother's words and sat back quietly.
Not long after, Arkan came to give cold drinks to the three. Two of the drinks looked clear and refreshing with a little soda in sight. This made Kino reject him.
“Thank you very much but I'm sorry. Ryou and I don't drink alcohol, Arkan-san”
“It's just soda water with cold lemon juice. I know because you're in recovery so that drink is for the other two. For you, I made a special fresh tea with apple juice and slices of fruit”
Kino seemed very happy with the drink he was given.
“Thank you very much, Arkan-san”
“Sama-sama”
Joel approached them with Arkan closing the door and replacing the writing on his doorstep with the word ‘close’.
“I'm so glad you guys came. You guys want to take your guns huh?” guess Joel
“Benar” answered Kaito briefly
“The sword and knife complete with the belt are in the employee room. Later the ungodly employee who took it” Joel pointed at Arkan with his thumb
“Manager, stop calling me so”
“Indeed you're disobeying your boss, right?”
“.....” Arkan does not want to answer and goes to the back
They continued their talk again.
“Then, is there anything else you're here for? It's impossible just to pick up a weapon right?”
“Where are those kids?” ask Kaito calmly
“Those kids..ehehe..I haven't told you guys yet ya”.
“News about what, uncle?” Ryou looked curious about that sentence
“Ehehe, now this..I have become...be...”.
“Become what? If you speak clearly uncle?!”
Now Ryou starts to get upset and the other two people also start to get curious while drinking his drink.
“I've become–”
Before he could finish speaking, a door opened suddenly. Along with that, the voices of the children were heard.
“We came, Joel-papa~”
“Uhuk!!” the three teenagers coughed from choking
“Jey, why did you close this bar again?” ask the woman behind the children
“Ouw~look who's coming. My sweet and adorable kids~”
Joel stood up and welcomed the nine children who had come with his wife.
Just as they were about to hug the big man who was stretching out his hands, the children's attention was immediately diverted towards the three people who looked in shock without blinking.
It didn't take long until the scream changed tone.
“Kyaaa~Kino-niichan”
“Mana? Is there Kino-niichan?!”
“Kino-niichan coming! There is Kaito-niichan also nee~”
“Gyaaa!! There's a fierce sister beside Kino-niichan!”
The children immediately approached Kino and ignored Joel.
“Why...why don't they give me a hug like last night? Where was that warm moment?” Joel started crying in the corner of the room
The wife welcomed the three teenagers and went to put down all the things she was carrying. Not long after that, Arkan came with their weapon.
“You all came already. Where's manager?” Arkan looked around
“The old man was crying in the corner. Ignore it, later also back to normal again” replied Theo with ketus
Until now, the three teenagers did not change their shock reaction even though Kino had been given a lot of questions by the children.
“Why do you guys look shocked once?” ask Arkan while giving the weapon in his hand to Kaito
“I...it seems like all the senses I have are still functioning well but..but, just now I heard the manager called by the name....sebut.”.
“Oh it. Because yesterday they were banned from visiting you by Ryou so they kept whining. And something big happened until night”
“Mu–maybe it..”
Before Kaito continued his conversation, Michaela called out to Kino with a very cheerful smile.
“Kino-niichan..”
“I–iya, Michaela-chan?”
“We have new parents now~”
“Alder?”
In an instant, Joel who was crying in the corner of the room gradually recovered and cheered up. She quickly hugged Michaela and the children while showing off something,
“Now, they are all my children! Call me papa!”
The children seemed very happy and hugged the big man, although Theo preferred to hug Kino and ignore him.
Kino was still unable to show her sweet smile as she was still in a shocked mood, whereas the other two people were already able to take one to two words out of her mouth.
“Pa–papa said.”.
“My gear didn't hear wrong. It turns out papa”
