The group continued walking silently. The more they walked, the more remains appeared and the more shocked they got. The numbers went from hundreds to thousands in less than an hour of walking.
Nobody knew the scale of this war and nobody knew what could've led to this mass murder even if it was a war. Couldn't they retreat or at least give up on the idea of invasion as a whole?
Many questions with no clear answers at all which really put Kai and the two girls in a very weird situation where they want to learn more but are worried about the consequences of such a thing happening. Curiosity wasn't always a good thing even if it was in such a matter.
As hours passed, the group had to stop every now and then for a break since they can't just spend their energy walking in case they will need to fight or deal with sothing ahead of them.
"How far are we going to walk? And how do we even co back?" Kaya asked as she drank so water.
However, nobody could give an answer as none of them knew the way out of this place. Their journey was into the unknown and anything beyond it. What they will discover along the way and what they might find is all complete news to them on all degrees.
"We will have to see where we will end up first. This journey doesn't seem to have an end anyti soon." Kai explained as he wiped his face with so water. He wasn't feeling thirsty but the humidity did affect his face.
After their break, they continued their journey. The mood wasn't as heavy as they thought it would be. Perhaps the pleasant scenery was the reason for that since they had so much fun looking around at the heaven they're walking in.
The beautiful chirping of the birds and the gushes of wind that swayed the grass and the leaves around them. The small animals that jumped around happily as they ate from the beautiful land and lived a happy life.
Hours moved slowly as the sun moved from the middle of the sky to near the horizon, announcing the end of the day.
The place cald down and the animals started going back to their hos to sleep. So, the trio decided to end their trip there and camp there for the night.
Although it was rather nerve-wracking to sleep amidst remains of primordial monsters, that wasn't good enough of a reason to try and find another place to sleep. After all, they were just remains of dead creatures, nothing worth fearing.
So, they set down three tents and lit a fire to cook so food. Luckily, Kai had put in mind the chances of them spending the night outdoors so he packed camping tools and a lot of food.
The trio then sat around the fire, enjoying its warmth as they waited for the food to cook. The calm sounds of the bubbling of the pot and the flickering of the fire made everyone almost doze off.
"Hey! Let's play a ga as we wait for the food to get ready! What do you think?" Kaya suggested with a smile, making Aria and Kai look at her.
"What kind of ga?" Kai asked.
"Hmm, let think for a second." Rubbing her chin Kaya tried to find a good ga they could play.
"I have an idea, if you don't mind." Aria suddenly spoke catching their attention.
"Oh, you do? What is it?"
"20 questions ga. Did you hear of it before?"
"I think I heard of it before. Isn't it that ga where soone thinks of an object or an idea and the other must figure it out in 20 yes or no questions?"
"Yes, that's it."
"Sounds like a good ga to . What do you think, Kai?"
The boy closed his eyes for a second before he sighed and nodded his head. Kai had nothing else to do so he might as well indulge them in their little ga.
"Ok! Great! Can I begin then?" Kaya asked.
"Sure. Then Kai will be the one to guess what I thought of and then it's Aria's turn to guess. Then we exchange roles."
"Fine with ."
" too."
When they finalized the rules, Kaya thought for a second before she smiled and stared at Kai.
"Ok, ask away, darling~"
Kai nodded his head before he thought for a second and then stared at her. "Is this thing an object?"
"Yes."
"Is it expensive?" He asked.
"Depends on your choice, but most of the ti, it is." Kaya replied with a nervous look.
'Why is he so sharp? Already on the right track after two questions!'
Although Kaya knew that Kai could read expressions with ease, she had made sure to hide her thoughts as much as possible. Goes to show her beloved's sharp senses.
"Does it have any emotional significance?" He asked.
"Yes."
"Hmm, can I answer then?" Kai asked.
"Sure."
"It's a ring."
"What?!" Kaya blinked in shock. "How did you get it this fast?!"
Never did she think he will guess it from 3 questions. Just three questions! That wasn't even a joke.
"You have been rubbing your ring finger for a while now and your face changed when I asked those questions so I knew it was a ring."
"That easily?!" Looking down, Kaya realized her blunder and blushed awkwardly.
"Hehehe, this is dumb. Ok, fine its my loss. What's my punishnt?" She asked.
"Do we need to do punishnts?" Aria asked confusedly.
"Hahaha! Of course we do or where is the fun?"
"Hmm, sure. You have to take a picture with a weird expression on your face." Kai thought for a second before he said in a calm tone.
"..." (x2)
Both girls didn't know how to react to his suggestion. For these words to co out of Kai's mouth, they almost wanted to look and see if the sun is rising from the west. After all, such a thing was extrely unexpected!
"Ehem, are you sure?"
"Yes. Or do you not want to?"
"Hey! I can do that!" Kaya retorted angrily before she pulled out her phone and took a picture. Her face looked rather funny as she twisted her eyebrows and made a weird grin.
After taking the picture, she showed it to Kai. "Here, look!" She exclaid as she showed the picture with a proud smile.
Kai stared at the picture for a second before he said. "That's funny." Without even smiling once.
"... Ehem, yes. It is. Now, I must delete it."
After that, Kaya quickly deleted it before she stared at Aria and said. "Now, its your turn, Aria. Think of sothing and let guess." Kaya said.
"Ok…"
After a second, Aria signaled for Kaya to start.
"Ok, is this thing an object?"
"No."
"Hmm, is it an idea?"
"Yes."
"An idea, huh? Interesting. Ok, is it a good idea?"
"No."
"Did you experience it personally?"
"Yes."
The two went back and forth like that with no hesitation. Kaya's face was rather turning more and more into a frown as she asked questions one after the other with no clear hint of the answer in sight.
'What did she think of? This is really hard? I only have a few more chances to ask.'
She tried to wring her brain for more questions to ask. In the end, she only discovered that it was a bad idea that she experienced herself and that idea happened when she was young.
The group continued walking silently. The more they walked, the more remains appeared and the more shocked they got. The numbers went from hundreds to thousands in less than an hour of walking.
Nobody knew the scale of this war and nobody knew what could've led to this mass murder even if it was a war. Couldn't they retreat or at least give up on the idea of invasion as a whole?
There were many things that could an that so Kaya couldn't guess.
However, at that mont, Kai opened his mouth.
"Can I answer that question then?"
With those words, both girls went silent. Especially Aria who flinched when she realized that Kai was looking at her. A feeling inside of her told her that he realized what she wanted to say.
Many questions with no clear answers at all which really put Kai and the two girls in a very weird situation where they want to learn more but are worried about the consequences of such a thing happening. Curiosity wasn't always a good thing even if it was in such a matter.
As hours passed, the group had to stop every now and then for a break since they can't just spend their energy walking in case they will need to fight or deal with sothing ahead of them.
"How far are we going to walk? And how do we even co back?" Kaya asked as she drank so water.
