Chapter 9 - Chapter 9 : The Unexpected Truth

After Yukari and Himari have a dinner at the "Peko Peko Paradise" restaurant, they got kidnapped by unknown assassins who wear British opera mask, a dark green hood and cape.

The assassins take them to a strange place.

When both of them awake, they're inside a dungeon.

Then Yukari looks at the window and she surprised.

It turns out that the environment outside is full of masked assassins and strange creatures like Griffons, Dragons, Qilin (An eastern dragon-horse hybrid), Manticores, Hydras, Chimeras, Dwarves, Ogres, Goblins and etc.

And with that, Yukari realizes that she's on the another world.

Yukari immediately says, "WHAT?!! WHAT THE HECK!! WHAT IS THIS PLACE?!! WHY IS THERE A DRAGON, GOBLIN, DWARF, OGRES AND, AND...…."

Himari pulls her arm and replies, "STOP SCREAMING AND CALM YOURSELF DOWN, ALRIGHT!!!!!!!!!!"

Yukari says, "HOW COULD I CALM DOWN?!!!! WHY THERE ARE CREATURES THAT IS SUPPOSED TO BE EXIST IN MYTH AND FOLKTALES?!!!! AND WHAT IS THIS PLACE?!!!! WHY ARE WE IN THE DUNGEON?!!!!"

Himari replies, "I know that you're confused, but at first you should calm down."

Yukari says, "BUT, BUT"

Himari then replies, "Calm down, Yukari-san. Take a deep breath. Inhale, exhale, inhale, exhale, inhale, exhale, inhale, exhale, inhale, exhale."

Yukari follows her words and breathe slowly to calm herself down.

After that, Yukari says, "Okay, I'm calm. Arigatou ne, Himari-chan."

Himari replies, "Doumo."

Yukari then asks, "So where are we?"

Himari replies, "I don't know, but I think we're in an another world."

Yukari says, "AN ANOTHER WORLD?!!!!"

Himari replies, "Yeah. There is no way that we're on earth. This is truly not normal."

Yukari says, "Wait, perhaps we're on...…."

Himari replies, "Yes, you're right, Yukari-san. We're on...…."

Then Himari says, "EXERIA!!!!!" While Yukari says, "ISEKAI!!!!!"

Himari replies, "Isekai?"

Yukari says, "Yeah, isekai. You know, an another world like in the animes."

Himari replies, "You're watching too much animes."

Yukari says, "So this is not isekai?"

Himari replies, "No, this is Exeria."

Yukari says, "Oh, Exeria. The world that where the phantom hunters are from."

Himari replies, "That's right."

Yukari says, "Hmm…....still the same though. Exeria and Isekai are the same. So Exeria is Isekai!!!!!"

EXERIA = ISEKAI

Himari sighs and replies, "Yeah, yeah, call it whatever you like. The point is that we're not on our home world."

Yukari says, "Yeah, what do we do?"

Then suddenly, a prisoner from the cell in front of them says, "Nothing, we can't do anything."

Yukari and Himari immediately face towards the cell in front of them.

Himari then says, "What do you mean we can't do anything?"

Then the prisoner says, "Because this dungeon is truly strong. No one could break these iron bars. I have tried many times, but these bars still stand."

Himari then says, "Wait, I think I heard that voice before."

After that, the prisoner steps into the light.

It turns out to be an elf.

Yukari says, "AN ELF?!!" While Himari says, "Thrain?"

Then he replies, "Wait, Galadriel. Is that you?"

Himari answers, "Yes, it's me, Thrain!! Oh Thrain, I miss you. I miss you so much."

Thrain replies, "I also miss you, my love."

Yukari surprised and says, "WAIT, HIMARI-CHAN!! YOU KNOW HIM!!!!!"

Himari then replies, "Oh right, I haven't told you my true identity?"

Yukari says, "TRUE IDENTITY?!! WHAT DO YOU MEAN?!!"

Then Himari takes off her fake ear and reveals her true ear (Which is an elf ear).

After that, she says, "Yukari-san, the truth is that I'm not a human."

Yukari is totally surprised.

She continues her words, "I'm an elf. And my real name is Galadriel. Galadriel Galvardar."

Yukari replies, "NANI?!!!!!"

Galadriel then says, "Gomenasae, Yukari-san for not telling you before."

Galadriel's monologue : "She probably be mad at me for not telling her the truth."

But the reality isn't as what as she expected.

She isn't mad, but instead she's really curious and excited.

Yukari says with starry eyes, "No way, you're an elf. Why don't you told me before?!! I have always wanted to meet all kind of fantasy mythical creatures like dwarves, ogres, dragons, goblins and EVEN AN ELF LIKE YOU!!!!! IT'S LIKE A DREAM COME TRUE FOR ME!!!!!!!!!!"

Galadriel's monologue : "Oh right, Yukari is an otaku, plus she loves to watch isekai animes, so of course, she loves to see my true identity."

Then Yukari says, "I REALLY AM IN THE ISEKAI WORLD!!!!!!!!!!"

Galadriel's monologue : "See."

After that, Yukari asks a lot of questions :

"Are you really live a long life like in fantasy movies and animes?" "How old are you? Is it 500? 600? 700? 800? 900? Or even a millennia?" "Where did the elves live?" "Are all elves agile?" "Could elves do magic?" "Are all elves great at combat?" "Are all elves beautiful and has a bright fair skin like you?"

"AH!!! I HAVE A LOT OF QUESTIONS!!!!!"

Galadriel replies, "Okay, okay, relax. I know you're so curious about me and my race. But first of all, I want to tell you something."

Yukari says, "About what?"

Galadriel says, "About us (Her and Thrain)"

Yukari replies, "Oh yeah. And by the way, who is he?"

In the other cell, Thrain smiles with his truly good looking face and introduce himself.

"Oh right, my sincere apologies. I haven't introduce myself. My name is Thrain, Thrain Galvardar."

Yukari surprised and says, "AH!! IKEMEN!!!!!"

Thrain replies, "Ikemen?"

Yukari then asks, "And what are you to Galadriel?"

Galadriel answers, "Oh, he's my husband."

Yukari replies, "HAH?!!!!!!!!!! YOU'RE MARRIED ALREADY?!!!!!"

Galadriel says, "Yes, I have."

Yukari replies with pity tears, "Meanwhile, I'm still single."

Galadriel says, "Don't worry, Yukari-san. You will found your soulmate one day."

Yukari then asks, "By the way, why you go into my world and disguise yourself as a human?"

Galadriel answers, "Well, because the Children of Faith ordered the elves to protect humans on your world. Because even though there's a lot of phantom hunters in your world, there's still need our help to cease the dark auras."

Then Thrain says, "Yeah, humans are still fragile. The power of dark aura could still corrupt them easily. So that's why, the elves been given a task to purify it."

Yukari replies, "Naruhodo. Okay, okay, I understand. But why do you have to disguise?"

Galadriel answers, "Because we don't want to attract attention, so we disguise ourselves like them, live normally like them and interact like them. So the human world continues to run normally and when the time comes where they can't withstand the darkness in their world, we will come out from our shadows and lend them a hand with everything we got."

Yukari amazed, "Wooooooooooow."

Then Galadriel continues, "But before we got sent to the human world, we should learn human cultures, lifestyle and what you usually do. We all learn everything about humans based on what country or region we will be send. I chose Japan, because I'm interested with their cultures and I love the scenery. So I learn everything from their language, ethics, work life, culinaries and other stuffs. Meanwhile, Thrain goes to Russia. Then when I'm on the age of 500, I'm finally ready to go to Japan. I and Thrain leave our homeland and set off on a mission to the human world for a century. When I'm arrived to Tokyo for the first time, I realize that I need to money to live in this world, so I decided to work in the company that I interested in, which is the company that we worked in. Then I met you during the recruitment day. (Chuckles) That day, you're so nervous. So I encourage you to be more confident and gratefully, you passed the interview and so do I. And what a coincidence that we work in the same division. Since then, we become good friends. We're so close until there's the time that I want to told you my true identity, because even you're a weird and a clumsy person, I still trust you. And you are the only person that I trust. But I'm afraid that you will don't want to be my friend anymore, just only I'm not a human like you."

Yukari then hold her hands and answers with a serious expression, "No, I would never do that. I still will accept you and I'll keep being your friend even if you're a vampire."

Galadriel chuckles and replies, "Arigatou ne, Yukari-san."

Yukari says, "ARIGATOU AS WELL, GALADRIEL-CHAN!!!!!"

Galadriel asks, "For what?"

Yukari replies, "For believing in me."

Then both of them smile.

Thrain also smiles and replies, "You're lucky, Galadriel. You have a good friend."

Galadriel nods.

Yukari then says, "OH YEAH, THRAIN-CHAN!!!!!"

Thrain replies, "Yes?"

Yukari says, "STARTS FROM NOW, YOU'RE ALSO MY FRIEND!!!!!"

Thrain smiles and answers, "Alright."

Then Galadriel asks a question, "By the way, Thrain. How could you be here?"

Thrain answers, "Same as you. I also been kidnapped and when I'm awake, I'm in this cell."

Galadriel says, "Oh, is that so."

Thrain then says, "And by the way, I ever heard from those assassins regarding who's in charge of this place."

Yukari and Galadriel reply, "Who?"

Thrain answers, "Professor Vivantros."

Galadriel shocked as she heard his name.

Yukari says, "Wait, why are you so surprised? Who is he?"

Galadriel replies, "Professor Vivantros is a mad scientist that kidnapped all kind of various creatures for his strange experiment."

Yukari says, "What kind of experiment?"

Galadriel replies, "I don't know. But what I know is that the one who been kidnapped by him never comes back."

Yukari surprised and starts to feel afraid.

Her arm trembles.

Suddenly, two guards with a light green British opera mask and a light green knight armour come to their cell.

Yukari and Galadriel surprised.

Galadriel asks, "What? What do you want from us?"

The guard on the left says, "The professor wants to meet you both."
