Was at Lonea's house. Erga and Lonea prepare to leave Merya.

"Erga, before leaving, may I see your body?" Lonea said embarrassedly.

"My body? Hey... Are we going to do something?" Erga said while laughing.

With an embarrassed face, Lonea said, "I just wanted to see your back. When I was bandaging your body, I saw mark on your back."

"Mark? Ah... I see!"

Remembering the artiga mark he had, Erga immediately took off his clothes. When Erga showed his back, Lonea looked surprised.

"What's wrong, Lonea?"

Lonea said shocked, "That's not an artiga mark, it's gone. Who are you?"

"Me? What do you mean?" Erga was very confused by Lonea's words. Because according to Terza, Erga has the power of the artiga ring.

Lonea explained about the artiga mark.

When someone uses the artiga, the marks on their body will never move or disappear. This mark will continue to exist until the user dies.

Artiga is not only an heirloom from the ancestors, but artiga is also looking for a new owner. The artiga power can be lost because it doesn't suit the user, but still, the artiga mark will never disappear.

Meanwhile, what Erga experienced was that the artiga mark disappeared from his body. In conclusion, Erga does not have the artiga power. But, his own power.

Erga asked seriously, "If my power doesn't come from artiga, am I a Seyga Sein?"

"In my opinion, no. Seyga Sein definitely has a different aura. Even when he was ten years old, Seyga Sein could use seyga techniques perfectly. Never mind seyga techniques, you don't have Seyga aura, Erga." Lonea said in surprise.

"Come on... I'm getting dizzy thinking about the power that exists in this world." Erga answered while holding his head.

"Hey... Haven't you showered yet?"

"I still smell good."

"Gross... Before you go, take a shower first, Erga!"

"Okay, I'll take a shower in your bathroom."

After finishing showering, Erga prepared to leave Merya. Lonea had prepared some of the food and equipment that Erga needed.

“Where is our first destination?” Lonea asked while giving the sword to Erga.

"Um... Looks like I have to meet Terza. He's in Bagara Forest."

"You have friend?"

"It seems so."

"Okay, let's go now!"

Erga and Lonea hurried away. When he arrived at the Merya Gate, many guards greeted him. In fact, there is one person who is respected. He is Sin Meryan (26 years old) Seyga Main Division, War Commander in Zonery.

"Nice to meet you. I... Sin Meryan... Proudly present the sword to you."

"Sin Meryan?" Erga immediately ran towards Sin and kowtowed to him, "Thank you, I will guard this sword with my own life!"

Sin Meryan proudly said, "Stand up young man, that sword is the best sword I have ever created. Complete your task so that we can be together."

"Yes thank you!" Erga said while standing straight.

Lonea approached Sin and said, "Sin... I will go with him. Queen Eirin has given permission."

"What? Hey, you are Seyga Main Division. This is cheating, Lonea!"

"Come on... Erga doesn't know how this world works yet. I'll guide him."

"Um... If Queen Eirin permits, what should I forbid. Alright... Go proudly and return safely, your youthful souls will always burn!" Sin said while pointing at Erga and Lonea.

“Want to enter Merya Region?” Lonea asked.

Neither of them responded to Lonea's question.

"Erga, just leave it. Let's continue our journey." Lonea said while holding Erga's hand.

"But, Lonea... Looks like they need help."

"Just leave it." Lonea took Erga's hand and asked him to leave.

As Erga and Lonea started walking, the two women laughed and said, "Look, they're both still alive. We can go there without hesitation!"

The two women ran across the border and into Merya Region.

While running, suddenly...

A female Seyga (21 years old) came with a sword, quickly slashing the heads of the two women to death.

“Hey… Bastard, why did you kill them?” Erga said angrily while drawing his sword.

The Seyga continued to stare at Erga blankly. Lonea tried to calm Erga.

"Erga, don't mess with that woman. Let's go. I'll explain everything on the way." Lonea said as she continued to pull Erga's hand.

Because he trusted Lonea, Erga put his sword back in, then left with Lonea.

While on the way, Lonea explained about the Seyga.

She is Veira Enesia, Seyga Main Division, Border Guard Commander. She always patrolled around the border, anyone who entered without permission, she would kill without mercy.

Please note, she is Seyga Sein with a talent for swords. The speed is very high, it can even match Zerya's speed.

Erga stopped walking and shouted, "You knew all this would happen? Why didn't you tell those two women? They shouldn't have died, what were you thinking?"

"But... Erga, this is for..."

"For what? You can be that cruel to humans? I didn't expect you to be like that, Lonea!"

Lonea was silent as Erga continued to scold her. Erga left Lonea at that place.

As Erga started to leave, Lonea shouted, "This is all just for you. If I tell those two women, you will be hunted by everyone in Zonery. Because that is Veira's duty as a Border Guard. That's why I came with you. I don't want you to die that fast."

Erga walked back towards Lonea and said, "This is for me? It's like I'm not human when I let innocent people die in vain. Lonea, you must remember this forever. If you feel pain in yourself, it means you are still alive. But, when you feel the pain of other people's suffering, it means you are human!”

Lonea sad and crying. Erga could only remain silent when he saw her sad. Erga felt very guilty for scolding her too much.

Erga immediately hugged Lonea and said, "I'm sorry... Lonea... I just want you to be a human being who cares about other people. I realize that you care about me. But I almost forgot that. Thank you, Lonea."

In that hug, Lonea started to stop crying.

"Erga, I want to stay with you. I feel comfort in you. It seems like this feeling is too fast, but... I love you!"

"You love me? Are you serious? We're too young for that."

"I don't care, you are my first love, I want to stay with you." Lonea said tightly hugging Erga.

"Lonea... I don't understand love yet, will you wait for me to feel the same feeling?"

"I'll be with you until you feel the same, Erga!"

Erga and Lonea let go of their hug. They both looked at each other and smiled. Because it wasn't time yet, Erga and Lonea decided to rush to Terza Argandio's residence.
