1 Prologue to the Eternal Journey

Part 1 "Harmony Creation and Depravity"

Before life in this world, the world was empty and had nothing...."The world"? Can it be referred to as the "world" if it still doesn't have anything? Since life does not yet exist, it is still more appropriately referred to as "emptiness." Until one day there's something..."Something"? Can "That" be referred to as "Something"? Some people refer to it as "Personal" and some refer to it as "Energy" or "Power." But there's one name everyone holds about "That" is "Harmonia." Harmonia created this world, Harmonia that turned the "void" into a "world" with many lives in it.

Harmonia created this world with the aim that all life in this world could serve Harmonia as the Creator of the world. Thus, Harmonia created magic as a medium for all lives to serve Him. Plants, animals, humans, and other creatures created by Harmonia must have magic energy in them. Inanimate objects also have magic powers. Among all creations, man is the creation with the greatest magic power by being referred to as the "Conqueror of Magic." Previously I mentioned "and others" meaning there are other creatures that have magic energy yes they are referred to as the "Druids." They have always lived skeptical lives away from the lives of other beings, especially humans, they are also said to never show themselves before humans for unknown reasons. Despite having a weaker magic energy than humans, druids are believed to be creatures that can communicate directly with Harmonia.

Another Druid advantage over humans is their infinite magic energy capacity. So, if the magic power of man is the greatest, then druids have a greater amount of magic energy than humans. Life in the world seemed so happy and peaceful that one day man rebelled against Harmonia and wanted to destroy the balance of the world. The world is split in two with Harmonia rebellious sides and sides trying to maintain the balance of the world. The war between the two sides lasted for hundreds of years, until one day came a group of people who referred to themselves as the "Holy Knights." The Holy Knights lead a side that wants to maintain the balance of the world. The Holy Knights succeeded in destroying the rebellious side of Harmonia and managed to make the world again feel at peace. The Holy Knights are believed to be the origin of the emergence of two great kingdoms in today's world. The two kingdoms are the kingdom of "Khai" and the kingdom of "Rahi." The Kingdom of Khai is a kingdom based on the magic powers of light, fire and water. While Rahi kingdom is a kingdom based on the dark magic powers of shadow, land and wind. Beyond that there is a magic power that both kingdoms have, namely "void." It was all at least the knowledge passed down by my father Rakh who was king of the kingdom of Khai. My father lowered that knowledge to me and my sister, oh yes my name is Enral and my sister Enity. From all that knowledge, I'm still curious about the magic power of "void" that I don't understand at all. "Dad, what kind of magic power does void it be?" "The magic power of void is not the power you need to know for now Enral, neither do you want you to know about this void magic power," my father replied. My father's words made me even more curious about the magic power of the void. But every time I wanted to find out, I always managed to stop me. From here I understand that my father is too great to fight, because he can see and understand my every thought. In addition, my father was a great king in leading his kingdom. I finally gave up and thought that one day I would have a chance to find out about this magic "void" power. Here I still don't realize that inside me there has been a bad desire to happen.

Part 2 "Unforgettable Promises upon the Sun"

My father once said a few things to me about who I am and who my sister Enity is. The two of us are not only the children of King Rakh of the Khai kingdom, but we are both Crimson chosen humans who are elements of Harmonia messengers and rule against the power of fire. I, Enral have purgatory fire power that rivals or exceeds hellfire while Enity bequeathed the fire power of our mother to the power of Phoenix. Phoenix's fire power is a fire force that never extinguishes forever and is a healing fire. My father just said this to me and he said that it still takes time for your full strength to emerge. So, he advised us to exercise a lot every day. In addition to my father's statements, life as the king's children still had a fun side and an irritating side.

Life as the king's children has its own advantages where it will earn the same respect as those honoring the king. In addition to being honored, what I love about being the king's son is free service. When walking throughout the kingdom, the king's children will be given maximum service for free such as food, drinks, toys, books, and many other things. Those things that I and Enity as king's children felt as a child. Like I said earlier, being born into the royal family is very upsetting, why? Because we had to follow many rules that seemed to limit our freedom: how to dress, how to eat, how to walk, absolute prescribed activities such as learning, practicing magic, practicing swords, daily lifestyle stipulated by the laws of the royal family. Enity and I often broke those laws until we definitely got our father's punishment.

One day I said something to Enity, "Enity, how about we skip sword training today? There's something I want to show you out there!" Enity replied with her shy tone, "um... Brother... What if... That, if we get caught again... we can be punished!" I wanted to persuade Enity, so "take it easy, this time we're definitely going to escape this time... Just leave it to your brother!" Enity is still with her doubts, "but brother... Out there..." Again and this time I immediately held her hand and said, "take it easy Enity, this one you're going to love, well no matter what happens, your brother will always protect you!" I pulled Enity with the best smile taking her somewhere outside the kingdom. When I almost got to where I meant, "Enity, I want you to close your eyes until I said "open your eyes!" and you can open your eyes again..." I still see Enity still confused, Enity with a very shy personality and often feeling scared makes me eager to protect her. "uun, okay…" Enity replied and did it. We were still walking around the 20 steps and finally arrived at our destination. "Okay, now you can open your eyes!" Suddenly, a strong wind blows until it almost flies us both and Enity opens her eyes. Enity sees only yellow fields filled with Sunflowers as far as the eye can see.

I took her to the sunflower field that I found on the map in the library. At first I wondered what sunflowers were, and I tried to open them in the encyclopedia book and get them and decided to show them to Enity. When Enity opened her eyes, it was as if her body was still but her eyes and smile were as radiant as sunflowers. It's the first time I've seen Enity smile with glittery eyes. "Waaah! What's this brother? It's so beautiful, the first time I saw something this beautiful... waaah!" Enity said it while stretching out her hands, swirling between the sunflower fields. I feel like I want to shed a tear, because I kept my promise to our mother before she died 6 years ago when I was 3 years old and Enity was 1 year old. "Enral, you know... Enity has not been smiling for a long time... This is your mother's last request... Please protect Enity... and... Make her smile... It's your responsibility as a brother... yes Enral...?"

It was our mother's last sentence before she died in her bed from illness. I remember it back and I ended up shedding tears... Besides, I realized Enity was confused with me suddenly crying. "Eh!? Brother, why are you crying... Eh!? Eh!? Did Enity do anything until she cried??" Her confusion turned into a panic...*sigh* this sister had behavior that was difficult to predict (other than her shy nature). Moments later, I went back to being calm and hugging my sister. "Eh!? Eh!? Eh!?!? Brother why?" In my heart I said, "ah... Maybe the behavior that's unpredictable right now might just be me..." I once again calmed myself down and wiped away my tears and looked at Enity then said, "I'm okay Enity... What do you think about this brother's surprise gift? You like it?" Enity then smiled broadly, turned her back and came back to see me then said, "best! This is the best surprise gift I've had in my life... no gift will be able to match this brother's gift!" Enity then puts her hand under her chin as if thinking of something, "but, my birthday was already past, brother what is this gift for?" I smiled at Enity and said, "nothing, it's just your brother's wish..."

Afterwards, Enity hugged me, kissed me on the cheek and whispered, "this is a payback from before..." The view of the time was a sight that will never be forgotten, the two of us, brother and sister saw the view of the sunflower field which felt like no end. English translation. In the end I gave a sunflower gift to Enity as jewelry in her hair then we went home. On the way home, "hey Enral, Enity... You guys got escape again, huh?" said one child. "You guys are endlessly breaking the laws of the kingdom" replied another child and *plak* "hey brother, why did you hit me?" then replied the taller child who was called his brother "what the hell are you saying? We're the same!" They were Lokiy and Tohr, they were the children of king Odiyn of the Rahi kingdom and we often met them when we skipped. "Hey Lokiy, Tohr you guys too?" Then Lokiy looked at Enity and, "hmmm... It feels like there's something different about Enity today, you've done something to her, Enral?" I said, "hm, that's nothing!" Tohr replied, "You're lying, right!? Brother, he's lying, right?" *plak* "would you shut up for a second?" shouted Lokiy. In addition Tohr whispered to himself "that's twice...uuuh it hurts…" And Enity laughed at their behavior until the three of us couldn't say anything, because this was the first time we saw Enity laughing like that. "Then we'll go home!" I yelled to Lokiy and Tohr, "okay, see you later!" shouted the two of them. Enity just smiled and waved her arms at them. We reached the kingdom and finally for the first time we were not punished. It is thanks to me who has hypnotized the sword training teacher to obey my orders. But it's only me who knows it, Enity doesn't know it either.

Part 3 "Strong Will with Dependable Support"

A few days later, Enity and I practiced magic with our father. "Attack me like you want to kill me..." my father said with pride. "Okay, I hope you won't regret it!" Enity and I started taking positions to attack. A lot of people also watch our workouts, but this makes me more excited. Enity focuses on support from behind and I'm in charge of attacking dad directly. I moved forward using the thrust of fire from the feet and flew like a rocket towards my father. I made seven fireballs around me and threw them all at my father.

I thought he had lost his sight, then Enity used her help technique on my body and I moved behind my father then wanted to attack him with my fist. Our efforts were broken by the appearance of magic shields all over my father's body. My father had read our strategy and tried to make us despair. "Is that all you got?" asked my father with seriousness. "Heh... It's not over yet, it's time for Enity's technique to be active!" The Enity technique previously given to me was a technique to spur one's magic powers and add one privilege of each attack from the person given the technique, which is to melt the opponent's magic shield. "Huh!?" my father seemed surprised by it but "heh, a strategy that really thinks of its own circumstances but not the circumstances of its opponent... you must not forget to look back at who is your opponent and think about strategy once again."

Suddenly there was an explosion of fire from my father's body and it gushed up into the sky like a tower. I was thrown and knocked against the wall and Enity healed the wound I received there." I did the same thing as my father even though the explosion was much smaller than my father's and the beam was only as tall as my hair. Enity once again used her other support techniques on me. Now I attacked my father using seven fireballs united with the ground to become like a collection of small meteor balls and immediately attacked him. This time, I attacked him directly from the front and I thought my father wouldn't use the magic shield again because he thought that I was still using Enity's previous aid techniques. I attacked him with both my fists and got him arrested. Here he doesn't realize anyone else is going to get it done, namely Enity. Enity ran from behind to my father using his magic sword made of fire. The second time Enity technique is given is the technique of letting the opponent focus on the person who acquired the technique, this is called Flame Provoke. Dad no longer uses magic shields and he's focused on my attacks, Enity can freely defeat him from behind.

Magic matters leave it to me, but the sword technique problem, Enity is much better than me. "This time is your lost, old man!" I whispered in front of my father. "Huh? What did you say?" then "haaaaaah!!!!" *cyang* the sound of a magic sword touching my father from behind along with Enity's screams. My father was instantly silent and "... Since when did Enity dare to attack me? So far, Enity has only always been behind Enral but now..." Both of our father's great hands were towards both of us and we closed our eyes in fear. "Good job, that's how the kids from Rakh hahahahaha!" After being terrified, we felt the confusion of "eh!?" both of us in such shock while our father still laughed happily. We thought we'd be done something better by our father, it wasn't like that. Afterwards, dad whispered to me, hugging me with one hand, "you've done something to Enity, haven't you? Your dad can see it from today's game... No need to hide, good job!" then "even if you didn't manage to kill dad, but you managed to surprise me today!" Then I replied, "thank you?" We hugged him for a few minutes saying a lot of compliments to us. After that, our father spread the information to every one of his people and the next day we both received endless compliments every time we crossed paths with people, as well as our father who had not changed since that exercise. While walking around with Enity in the royal area in search of a doll for Enity, I suddenly heard a voice that felt delivered directly to my mind that said "protect Enity, whatever happens!" I was shocked and looked around me but there was nothing suspicious, "why brother?" I then replied "oh, it's okay why did you just think if anyone forgot it wasn't." Enity said, "come on quickly, I want that panda doll!" We continued our business and we got a panda doll for free from one of the characters. I gave it to Enity and he was very happy. "Thank you brother!" then I replied "yes, take care of it all right!" Let Enity protect the panda, and I'll protect Enity no matter what.

Part 4 "Door to the Unknown"

Every time we skipped trainings and came out of the kingdom to play, we would definitely find two brothers from the opposite kingdom doing the same. Without us feeling, we became friends with them. They are strange and funny children, at least in Enity's eyes. But, I still can't get their true nature as a kid. Thanks to the gift of my mother's derivatives, I can see and observe when people lie. Lokiy and Tohr never lie, but their behavior feels empty in my eyes, it feels like they don't want to bring out their true character. I still don't know how they're going, other than they often skip out the kingdom like me and Enity. Me and Enity met with Lokiy and Tohr when they came home from the sunflower field, and that was the last day we saw them. After that, we never saw or listened to the news of the two of them. We still don't know what really happened, before it happened and it's all too late. "ther…rother…Brother! Brother!!!" I heard a voice that was getting longer and more echoing in my ears. "Eh!? Enity, why?" I don't understand the conditions surrounding asking Enity. "*pout* why did my calls unanswered anyway? Are you in a daydream, huh? Thinking about what?" Hmm... Turns out I was daydreaming without me noticing. Enity is also getting more and more cheerful since that day. "Hm? It's okay, brother Just feel tired after a day of training" Enity with a still fulfilled confidence replied, "hmm... So yes, it's okay yes... All right" and Enity left. In my heart, I felt relieved and accidentally "phew" coming out of my mouth.
