Live of the center of hunter family.
My name is Janus, my mother was a brave explorer. My father was a professional treasure hunter,
I always amazed when hear story about my father and mother adventure with their group
They also an treasure hunter, they have beat the cursed doll on freezing cave, and Mandragora`s queen (cursed plant that eat human and other living things) on secret forest, getting all treasure by killing the mega snow bear on eternal frozen field, and many others story that plants the spirit of an adventure in my soul and become great adventurer like both of them..
"Became strong and find your adventure by yourself little Janus" my mother said that while flatter my hair
"But it when you already grown bigger" my father said
Chapter 1: The Night Change Everything
Thirteen years ago, my mother was missing on the expedition on sacred city called "Morrock" and can`t be found until now..
Three years ago my father was been reporting die on Dead mine because of saving his group member from attack of Red Beast... Without them I almost hopeless.. And feel lost everything..
Even I already know that its was their job`s risk, but I still fell sad.
But... That thing was not enough to broke my spirit to become and great adventurer..
Well... here I am now, doing and training to become an ranger on main city "Acropolis", I was really want to granted my mother last wish.. I will grown strong and find my adventure myself!
[Acropolis Town]
After half of hour Janus stands on front of billboard on east acropolis, he takes a deep breath, and his face look disappointed
"Looking for item, cleaning service, weeds cutter on airship (plane that on the top can using to build home and garden), job to be a puppy trainer..." his murmur..
"There was already a few of month since my training done, but I still stuck in this town. Be an item delivery, and do some other useless thing... There was no attractive mission that can be doing..."
Janus throws himself on green garden and rest for a while... His eyes look at the blue big sky...
"Where should I start looking for my adventure...? All is look so boring... And so live in this city was really hard for me.. Should I go back to payon ? ... Mom... Dad... I miss you two..."
Because he is to tired, Janus fell asleep and wake at late... Acropolis was so silent... The entire merchant already back home... And the clock said almost 12'o clock.
"I think I should go back to my place too..."
[On the way back]
while he almost get on his rented house... he hear some people talking
Lady: "I think our business was already done as your request, now go! Or my whip will attack you"
Janus was startled hearing that. He hides himself behind and building. Slowly he look who is speaking.
Its an.. Treasure hunter, her face beautiful but it look scary, her blonde hair look shiny with light of the moon. And she hold and thorn whip (whip with spine/thorn around its whip) on her hand, she stand with and ready to fight position
Her speak enemy is an assassin... wearing black clothes, black pants, and wearing a mask
"Unfortunately lady, The order I receive is to catch Lady Madeleine from Effervescent,
Don`t blame me if you are killed because you struggle with us!" Assassin take the knife on right hand and some shuriken at left hand
Look a few of shadow and some flying shining weapon has been throwing to the lady. The ladies take her whips and whipped it around, all of weapon has been throw back by the lady, some of it was heading to Janus!
Some of weapon heading to Janus! and almost get to Janus neck! Janus was shocked, the weapon is a steel disk and was almost cut his head. And the assassin got some reinforcement, lady Madeleine was trapped by her enemy
'Hmm... so many guys versus one women eh?' her face look smiling with anger
"Give up Madeleine! You have no hope again!, Effervescent has broke the contract!" the assassin spoke to Madeleine in ready position to kill her
"Our Group had never broke contract! this is degradation! And I should revenge you!" Madeleine turns around her whip again and attacks all of assassin reinforcement, so the fight was started again
Janus heart beats more fast, his feeling is mixing... Fear, suspicious, but he doesn't want to leave from the place, many things on his mind mixing.
'Who are they! Are they crazy fighting on town at this time!', 'Where the hell are city guard?', "Ah the assassin was very tricky!', 'Danger, the lady is getting attacked!'
At that time the assassin jumped and will stab the lady`s heart from behind
"Lady Madeleine! Watch your back!" Janus scream and the other assassin spotted him
Mad was surprised and turn her face back, luckily she success to avoid the attack of assassin
A few second after that, Janus hear some loud voice... "DARR!", and the white fog is coming out, that blind all assassin eyes
For a few moments the battle was stopped, while that there something attacking the entire assassin, when the fog is gone, all of assassin reinforce is fainted, a man with blue long hair defeat them, there was left only one assassin, the assassin want to throw the disk, but there was an dagger stick into his neck..
"If you want to live, better drop your weapon!" a guy talk while put his dagger on assassin neck
The assassin know that he was trapped, the man punch his back and make the assassin fainted
After all of the assassin been defeated, the blue haired guy talks to Lady Madeleine
He is are treasure hunter too same as lady Madeleine but look older and carry heavier things in his rucksack look like the items he carrying is more heavier then his body itself
"It`s the last mad, all clear" the blue haired talk
"Roger, all clear" another guy responses
"Jokky! Alceus! You two were late!, I almost get killed by that assassins" Madeleine talk with furious face
"Geezz... This assassin is under shogun command" Alceus talk to jokky without looking at him, but look all of fainted assassin
"Why you don't speak nicely to them mad? What's wrong with you? This problem can get bigger" Jokky talk to Madeleine with higher voice sound
"What ? They told us already broke our last mission" Madeleine response to Jokky
"Last mission ? That's already been delivered right?" Jokky look surprised
"Oh my god... We can get killed if make a mess with shogun..." Alceus cut the talk
"not with shogun or not else with Ryu but with their leader who contract us do this mission" Madeleine continues
While they discuss, Jokky is aware that there was someone behind the building
"And who are you Mr... Ranger?" Jokky talk behind Janus face
"E-eh... My name is Janus sir..." Janus response it with panic face
"You!, why you can`t just keep silent back there? Now they must though that you are one of us" Madeleine cut the introduction while walk to he
"So-Sorry I was spontaneous scream, when I saw you wants to be attacked by those assassins" Janus don`t know what to say again
"Oh yes, I forget to thanks because you already save my life" Madeleine smiling at Janus but with sad face
"Well... lets we head back to headquarter before the thing going to be much mess, and its better you, Janus, to come with us to headquarters" Jokky seems like have no other choice
"I go to yours quarters?" Janus seem not believe what jokky just said to him
"Yup, because if you wants to stay here, they must search and catch you" Alceus talk to janus to make him get clearly about the problem
Janus was confused and happy at the same time, because his boring life was change in only one night, and he knows that his life was in danger now, so Janus followed them to the headquarters
Why do Madeleine, Alceus, and Jokky been search by their enemy?
Who is Shogun and Ryu?

And... How is the continue of Janus itself?
To Be Continue...
