'What do you want? A tattoo?' Khuva said.

 'Huh? Do I look like a lost and found box?' Khuva said.

'No! We don't know anything about this man but we a tattoo on him so we are hoping that you could help us' Hestia said.

'Tatto?' khuva said.

'Yeah! A 3 clawed tattoo on his arm' Zwart said.

'Can you draw it? There are many people with tattoo here.' Khuva said.

…Ruel draw the tattoo as instructed by Hestia, The tattoo drawn by ruel…

…Khuva is shocked about what he saw, he immediately close all the doors and windows of the shop…

'Why? Do you know any of it?' Hestia said.

'that is not a tattoo!' Khuva said seriously.

'What?' Zwart said.

'That is an Insignia of a group here at Avalon…' Khuva said seriously with those big eyes… 

"Insignia of what?" shin young said.

'…The insignia of the Anti-Monarch Cult, one of the notorious groups in the Avalon…' Khuva said

'Anti-Monarch Cult?' Ruel said.

'Yes! They have an army of powerful people and connections, so most of the people are afraid to mess with them…' Khuva said.

'…and what's with the Anti-Monarch Cult? Did they do something on you?' Khuva said.

'One of their men took our ally…' Hestia said.

'…so we are going to get her!' Hestia said.

'What?' Khuva said.

  

'Do you know anything about them? Or where are there hideouts?' Victorila said.

'…hmmm let me think…' Khuva said.

…after a long thinking khuva remember something…

'…all I remember is where their hideout is…' Khuva said.

'Where?' Ruel said.

'…at the end of the Avalon, to the Floating island "Jumanju"' Khuva said in serious face.

"Jumanju?" Shin young said.

'yeah, that is what I heard people talking about here at the market…' Khuva said,

"How can we go there?" shin young said.

'At the bottom of the large hole you all saw when you entered here in the black market, at the bottom you will find a hole that will lead you to the outside and there you will see a vast ocean, fly or use an airship to go at the end of the Avalon and beware of monsters.' Khuva said.

…shin young's poker face and his lips curved into a smile and said…

"then that's enough" shin young said while walking to the outside with a ominous smile. 

…then shin young and the others leave the shop and head to the hole…

…they look at the hole and see nothing but darkness but they still continue to jump at the hole…

….after the jump it took them an hour before they reach the bottom and there they saw a cave when they enter the hole and at the end they saw a ship there…

'huh what is that?' Hestia said.

"A airship?" shin young said.

…they stop to look at the unmanned airship…

'No one is here' Ruel said.

'Let's look is it still usable' Zwart said.

…Ruel try to start the engine of the ship and luckily it worked…

'Whooo hooray!' Ruel said.
