While they are on the street of Bahageey City, Andark and Goode are riding their own Bothasuses. Lighel is riding her Bothasus with Garuvy, who sits behind her.

As they encountered traffic on the highway, Andark found himself on the left side of Lighel and Garuvy, while Goode trailed behind them.

Andark smiled as he turned to Lighel. “It seems like you feel what I feel.”

“No,” Lighel shook her head before she added. “This is normal for me.”

“Oh, c’mon! Don’t lie!” Andark grinned.

“Shut up, darkness.” Lighel’s eyebrows are narrowed.

“Well, what else can we do?” Goode raises his right hand with his right palm facing up. “If Garuvy is not with us, we could just make our Bothasuses fly.”

“Hey!” Lighel’s eyebrows are furrowed as she turns to Goode. “You shouldn’t abandon Garuvy!”

“Yes, I know.” Goode nodded. “I’m sorry, Garuvy!” Goode smiled as he turned to Garuvy. “You have to keep your good spirit!”

“Yes, thank you!” Garuvy smiles and nods.

After waiting for a while, their Bothasuses could run again until they reached a street with a queue of Bothyzards riding Bothasuses.

They queued in front of a male Bothyzard and a female Bothyzard who were guarding the blue barrier that protected the city.

In the queue, Andark is behind Lighel, and Goode is behind Andark.

“Do we have to queue like this?” Garuvy asked.

“Yeah.” Andark nodded before he added. “This could happen if there’re too many Bothyzards who want to get in and out. In every city in the Bothyzard Region, there’re only 10 gates, and each gate is guarded by 2 Sentinel Bothyzards,” Andark explained.

Garuvy turns to Andark. “Why don’t they increase the number of the city gates? And the Sentinel Bothyzards too?”

“They could have done that, but they didn’t do it. Even if they do, there’ll always be some Bothyzards crowdin’ at one gate, and their reasons might differ,” Andark explained.

“I should be the one to explain that, Darky!” Lighel’s eyebrows are furrowed. “She is my daughter right now!”

“What’s wrong with that?” Andark’s eyebrows are narrowed. “I’m the one who raised her all this time! Damn you, a kidnapper!”

Lighel turns to Andark. “Damn you, a pedophile!”

Garuvy chuckled before she added. “Are you two always like this?”

“She’s the one who started this!”

“I hate darkness!”

“I’m not as dark as you thought!”

“Enough, enough,” Goode smiles.

After Garuvy laughed at the argument, she looked around and saw that there were a bunch of small blue barriers guarded by the Bothyzards on the outside of the city barrier.

Inside one of the small barriers, she saw a boy unleashing blue light balls haphazardly, and the other one in the other barrier was a girl unleashing blue fireballs haphazardly.

“Those small barriers are… Bothyner Disorder Patients?” Garuvy asked.

“Yeah,” Andark nodded.

“Yeah.” Lighel turned her face forward before she added. “Those barriers are created to withstand the unstable Bothyner attacks. Soon you’ll go inside the barrier too, but it looks like the area outside the city is already full of small barriers. We’ll go to a quiet place and make one for you.”

“Oh, okay.” Garuvy nodded.

“Hmph.” Andark’s eyebrows are furrowed. “Are you happy now?”

Lighel’s eyebrows are narrowed as she turns to Andark. “What’s wrong, huh?”

Goode points at something with his right finger. “Hey, look there!”

Garuvy, Lighel, and Andark turn to the direction pointed by Goode, which is on their right side, outside the city barrier.

They saw five Bothyghters coming towards the small barriers. Each of the Bothyghters has a human body with blue skin, no ears, light blue eyes without eyeballs, light blue claws, light blue sharp teeth, five horns on its head, two horns on its shoulders, two horns on its elbows, and two horns on its knees.

A male Bothyzard released blue light balls from his right hand while walking to target one of the Bothygters until it was killed.

Another male Bothyzard approaches the other four Bothyghters and releases blue wind from his right hand.

Two Bothyghters were hit by the attack. The other two dodged to the left side of the Bothyzard.

The Blue Wind Male Bothyzard approaches the two Bothyghters who dodged before. He hits them with a blue wind attack. While the two are standing still, the Blue Light Ball Male Bothyzard kills them with blue light balls.

The Blue Light Ball Male Bothyzard releases blue light balls towards the remaining two Bothyghters.

One of the Bothyghters dodged to the right. But the creature is killed by a blue thunder attack from a Blue Thunder Female Bothyzard.

After the other Bothyghter dodged the previous light ball attack, the creature was killed by a blue fire attack from a Blue Fire Male Bothyzard.

“Well, that’s what we will do.” Goode smiles.

“Looks like you’re scared, Lighy,” Andark smiles.

“No, you’re the one who’s scared, Darky.” Lighel smiled as her eyebrows furrowed.

“No, I’m always ready.” Andark’s eyebrows are narrowed.

“Quiet! We almost reached the front!” Goode shouted.

After queuing for a while, there is one more Bothyzard left in front of Lighel and Garuvy. After the Bothyzard is gone, they are finally at the front of the queue.

The male Sentinel Bothyzard closes the barrier hole by putting his right hand on the barrier before Lighel can pass through. Then he approaches the female Sentinel Bothyzard.

After the two line up horizontally, they face Lighel and Garuvy. Lighel points her right palm at her chest.

A blue electrical spark appeared around Lighel’s right hand for a second before it turned into a blue aura. It makes the Sentinel Bothyzards point their right palms at their chests and release a blue aura around their right hands.

After a few minutes, Lighel and the Sentinel Bothyzards lower their right hands. The blue aura around Lighel’s right hand and the Sentinel Bothyzards’ right hands disappeared.

The female Sentinel Bothyzard approaches the barrier, places her right hand on it, and releases a light blue aura around her right hand to make a big hole.

The Sentinel Bothyzards stay away from the hole so that Lighel and Garuvy can go through it with their Bothasus.

After passing through the hole and reaching the empty land, Lighel controls her Bothasus to go right and stops immediately after walking a little.

“What was that for?” Garuvy asked.

“Oh.” Lighel smiled as she turned to Garuvy. “It’s for security reasons. It’s called “Bothyner Salute”. Any Bothyzard who wants to get in and out of the city barrier or the village barrier should know how to do the Bothyner Salute in front of the Sentinel Bothyzards. If you do, they’ll make a barrier hole for you. If not, they’ll throw you out of the queue.”

Garuvy opens her mouth a bit. “Oooh…”

Andark’s eyebrows are narrowed as he approaches Garuvy and Lighel with his Bothasus from the right side. “Hey, you left us!”

“Oh, yeah!” Lighel smiled as she turned to Andark. “Because we don’t need you and Goode!”

“You’re kidnappin’ Garuvy for real!” Andark’s eyebrows are furrowed. “Give her back!”

Andark makes his Bothasus to get closer to Lighel’s Bothasus and tries to reach Garuvy with his right hand. It makes Lighel move her Bothasus to the left.

“It’s okay,” Lighel chuckled. "We’ll go together.”

“Don’t worry, Mr. Andark,” Garuvy chuckled. “I’m fine!”

“Hmph.” Andark looks away. “Don’t say that you want to stay with her forever.”

Garuvy and Lighel are laughing while Goode arrives from behind with his Bothasus.

“Alright, let’s go, guys! What’s wrong?” Goode smiles.

Andark smiled as he turned to Goode. “Nothin’.” He turns back to Lighel. “C’mon, let’s go!”

After riding Bothasuses for a while, they stumbled upon three Bothyghters and four Bothoblins behind the Bothyghters.

The Bothoblins appeared as little goblins with blue skin, light blue eyes without eyeballs, light blue claws, light blue sharp teeth, three horns on their heads, two horns on their shoulders, two horns on their knees, and a light blue club in their right hand.

While riding her Bothasus, Lighel stretches her right hand toward her enemies.

“I guess you’re not ready for this!” Lighel grinned as her eyebrows narrowed.

“You’re the one who’s not ready!” Andark smiled as his eyebrows furrowed.

To evade Lighel’s hand-sized blue light beam from her right hand, two Bothyghters and two Bothoblins go to their right side, while a Bothyghter and two Bothoblins go to their left side.

After the blue light beam hits the ground, Lighel still maintains it and directs it to her right side to hit one of the Bothoblins. She lets another Bothoblin and a Bothyghter dodge it by moving to their left side.

The blue light beam continues to hit the Bothoblin until it kills the creature. After that, Lighel makes the light beam disappear.

Andark moves his Bothasus to his left side to approach two Bothyghters and two Bothoblins. He releases a blue shadow that was floating but still connected to Andark’s right palm.

The blue shadow turns into blue needle shadows that look like four blue needles. Each of the needles has the same size as Andark’s arm and has a length that is twice the size of Andark’s arm. They can move elastically.

Andark uses the blue needle shadows like a whip. They hit one of the Bothyghters. But the other Bothyghter and two Bothoblins dodged.

Andark keeps attacking his enemies with blue needle shadows. Each time they landed an attack, blood spread from the Bothytures’ bodies.

Goode moves his Bothasus to his right side to approach a Bothyghter and a Bothoblin. He releases blue fireballs from his right hand. They hit the Bothyghter. But the Bothoblin dodged them.

The Bothoblin approaches Goode and tries to hit him with a blue club. Goode dodges the attack by moving to the right while releasing blue fireballs and killing the Bothyghter.

Lighel releases a hand-sized blue light beam towards the Bothoblin near Goode and successfully kills it.

Goode and Lighel try to dodge the small blue light balls that come suddenly from the air by moving around. One of the small blue light balls tears Garuvy’s T-shirt. It makes her groan. “Ugh!”

“Oh, no!” Lighel’s eyes are wide and her eyebrows are highly raised.

After Lighel, Garuvy, and Goode looked up, they realized that the small blue light balls were released by 10 Bothirds. Each of the Bothirds looks like a bird with blue feathers, light blue eyes without eyeballs, blue wings, a light blue beak, light blue talons, and two blue horns placed vertically in the middle of its head.

In Andark’s place, two Bothoblins and a Bothyghter have been defeated. The last Bothyghter is still standing despite some injuries.

The Bothyghter continues to chase Andark and tries to scratch Andark with its claws. Andark continues to dodge the attacks by moving around.

Andark attacks, and the Bothyghter dodges to the right but still gets hit. Andark attacks again, and the Bothyghter dodges to the left without getting hit.

The Bothyghter pounces on Andark. But the creature is quickly stabbed and killed by Andark’s blue needle shadows.

Andark makes the blue needle shadows disappear. It makes the Bothyghter fall to the ground with blood scattered around its corpse.

Andark successfully dodges the blue light balls that come suddenly toward him. Then he realized that the blue light balls are released by three Bothunicorns.

Each of the Bothunicorns looks like a unicorn, has a blue body, a light blue horn on its forehead, light blue hair, light blue hooves, a light blue ponytail, and light blue eyes without eyeballs. They are running towards Andark and releasing blue light balls from their mouths.

While creating blue needle shadows on his right hand, Andark avoids the attacks by moving around.

One of the Bothunicorns stops releasing blue light balls after Andark approaches it.

The Bothunicorn tries to run away by passing Andark’s left side. But the creature was attacked by Andark’s blue needle shadows.

Andark approaches another Bothunicorn and tries to attack it. The Bothunicorn stops releasing blue light balls and dodges Andark’s attack.

Suddenly, one of the Bothunicorns’ horns that has blue fire on its back and is called the “horn missile” is released from its head and flies towards Andark. He dodges the horn missile by making his Bothasus fly.

After a while, the blue fire on the back of the horn missile runs out. It makes the horn missile fall to the ground and disappear slowly. The Bothunicorn brings out a new horn from the hole left by the previous one.

The other two Bothunicorns release horn missiles towards Andark in the air. He dodges the horn missiles by making his Bothasus fly around.

Lighel, Garuvy, and Goode are surprised because the horn missiles are still flying towards the two Bothirds and hitting those creatures before exploding.

There are four more Bothirds around them that were also affected by the explosion. The six Bothirds fall to the ground and die. There are seven more Bothirds on the ground that are already killed.

While flying with his Bothasus, Andark approaches one of the Bothunicorns and attacks it successfully.

The other two Bothunicorns release blue light balls towards Andark. Some of the blue light balls hit him and tear his Bothyzard Robe.

Suddenly, a hand-sized blue light beam hits one of the Bothunicorns and continues to hit the creature until it dies. Blue fireballs come towards the other Bothunicorn and the creature dodges them.

Right after the Bothunicorn dodged the blue fireballs, Andark approached and hit the creature with blue needle shadows. It makes the Bothunicorn fall to the ground.

After attacking the Bothunicorn two times, Andark moves away to dodge blue light balls from the other Bothunicorn.

Lighel releases a hand-sized blue light beam towards the lying Bothunicorn and kills it. Goode releases blue fireballs towards the last Bothunicorn. Some of the blue fireballs hit it.

After Andark approached the Bothunicorn from the front, the creature released a horn missile.

Andark dodges the attack to the right and stabs the creature’s face with blue needle shadows. They scatter blood around the creature’s mouth, nose, and eyes.

After a while, the blue fire on the back of the horn missile runs out. It makes the horn missile fall to the ground and disappear slowly.

From the Bothunicorn’s right side, Lighel releases a hand-sized blue light beam towards the creature’s body. It makes the creature scream.

After a while, Andark makes his blue needle shadows disappear, and Lighel stops releasing the blue light beam. It makes the Bothunicorn fall to the ground and scatter blood.

While still riding Bothasuses, Lighel, Garuvy, Andark, and Goode assembled.

To be continued.
