Chapter 56: Aswad 3 of 15 “To Feel” (Part 03)


 


 


 


 


Mavis flinched, the mindset was really similar to the Moloian way of thinking whose ultimate goal was social equality. But when reviewing a nation that most of the population could not use the magic, Mavis felt it was not a good thing.


 


 


There are two states that Mavis considers bad on the Michigan mainland. First was an empire whose population was divided between the Emperor's worshipers and those who did not, it led to a long-term civil war that has not ended until now. The second is Moloia, a meritocratic country that boasts a system that from the outside looks ideal, but in fact has experienced a massive civil war due to its own system of government,


 


 


Mavis stared anxiously, slightly sharpened her gaze and asked, “Are you sure everyone can walk side by side? Regardless of social or economic status? No heredity limit? Without race restrictions and origins? Didn't you yourself ever say that justice isn't equality? Then ... why do you want to achieve that, my son?”


 


 


“Mother knows, actually that's not what I'm headed for ...” Odo let go of Mavis's hand, stared with sad eyes and said, “I just don't want any war. One of the things I hate most is war. If you want to fight, fight alone and do not involve others who do not want to ..”


 


 


“Mother also does not want any war ...”


 


 


Mavis again put on a grim expression. He did not participate directly in the climax of the Great War like the other Intara Hexe Homunculus series, but because of the war was the fate of his brothers ended fate and died without being able to feel life like living things in general. The blonde woman understood the war gave her and her sisters a life, but indeed in the bottom of his heart he could not like war because it also made the Intara Hexe as a weapon on the battlefield.


 


 


Subduing his face, Mavis' body trembled and in a soft voice he said, “But how else? If indeed the country has moved in that direction, we cannot change its course ...”


 


 


“If I said it could be changed?” Odo held onto both of Mavis's shoulders, causing the blonde woman to lift her face. The two blue eyes of the woman were met with the look of her son's excited eyes, a glimpse of the warmth of her son's spirit.


 


 


“Indeed ..., how to do?” Mavis in his mind began to hope, staring with curiosity and asked again, “You said you do not want to use Princess Arteria, then what do you want to do to stop the war? Although Felixia's will can be stopped, it does not mean that other countries will withdraw easily .... They also have their own will, in their rules and we can't take it to talk about it.”


 


 


“I ...” Odo's mouth came to a halt and his words were restrained. Breathing in and composing the sentence in his head, the young man in black hair firmly said, “I can't tell you how to be sure, yet, but clearly I have a way to stop this impending war! Before this war breaks out, I still have a chance! My time is very limited, therefore I must not lose components or waste time!”


 


 


“Components ..?” Mavis was stunned to hear such a word come out of Odo's mouth, as if his son thought people were nothing more than a serration in the machine.


 


 


“Iya!” Odo answered firmly. He clutched even more tightly onto both of Mavis's shoulders, then with an ambitious expression said, “Components for the big simulation inside my head! That's why I have to build a shop, then want to advance and solve all the problems that exist in the city of Mylta! I did that for a big simulation in moving the serrations of this country! I need experience! Perception! How to see experts! Technics! The resources! And all the necessary components to form a unity simulation!”


 


 


“A-What are you talking about, Odo?” Mavis trembled in confusion, clueless as to what her son was saying and subconsciously stepped back until the two young man's hands could not reach his shoulders.


 


 


At first glance Odo was stunned to see the expression of his mother. He immediately took a deep breath and eliminated the indecisive feeling in his mind, then put his right hand in front of his own chest and said, “I want to gather people from all countries in one container, he said, then set up, monitor, direct and give purpose to them to see if differences exist will give birth to harmony or chaos.”


 


 


Mavis fell silent on that, thought about it seriously and began to understand a little what her son was going to do. Squinting and taking one step closer, the blonde lady asked, “Do you want to make a place like a Miquator?”


 


 


“Not .... Not that!” Odo was a little emotional because his mother could not grasp the intent properly. Taking a breath and understanding that not everyone understands such things, the young man explained, “Mother knows, I just want the war to disappear from this land. There doesn't have to be an absolute ruler like a Miquator, I just want an alignment.”


 


 


“Alignment?”


 


 


“Ya ..” Odo put on a smile that seemed sad knot, then put his right hand back to the front of the chest and said, “The government will play the role of law enforcement, but they are not absolute because the voice of the population will prevail and can change the law itself. Taxes are paid to the government, but not all of them are used for the benefit of the government or the upper class. Some will be required for the development of facilities as well as the welfare of residents. That's what I want to do, return the essence of the rules to their original form to protect the weak.”


 


 


Mavis was only stunned to hear the words, stepped back and momentarily fell silent with an expression of disbelief. What Odo thinks sounds very true and beneficial to many audiences, especially the lower classes. But at the same time, all that will certainly not go well because most of the upper class will definitely resist the change.


 


 


Mavis also understood that the Rein family had long wanted such stability to advance the kingdom of Felixia. However, until now this has not been achieved. The protests of the class nobility swelled over from the territory of Garados, a view to being able to stand alone from Jakall's rule in the Kritasil Bascal archipelago, the, such things make progress difficult because the upper classes fear the changes could disrupt their rule after the war is over.


 


 


“My son ...” Mavis stepped closer, hugged Odo and anxiously said, “Mother is proud that you have such thoughts, Mother also wants to support her. But .., not everyone wants to achieve what you expect. Nobles tend to want the stability of their power, just like you want stability for the lower classes.”


 


 


“I don't expect Mommy to help me ..”


 


 


Odo's words made the blonde woman flinch, releasing a hug and staring with a deathly pale face. Gaining a sharp look from his own son, Mavis understood that the young man had completely rounded his throat and had absolutely no intention of stopping.


 


 


“So, yes ...”


 


 


“I said this not to ask permission from mom or anything like that, I said it just to tell.” Odo tilted his head slightly, stared with the glare of my eyes and in a slightly sad tone said, “Mother and Father themselves are nobles, your mindset is different from mine .... Even though I was born from among nobles, I do not like the difference that considers individuals superior to others. I understand this is naive thinking, but still what I don't like is I can't like. I'm —”


 


 


Odo's words came to a halt, he immediately turned his gaze away and placed the right palm into the ear. At a glance his forehead shriveled, then with a slightly irritated tone began to murmur, “Yes, alright ... Hmm, tell the others before the break tonight. .... Oh, aye. Tell Matthew to pick me up with his strength, his coordinates using the key to my location that you have. Hmm, now. Don't long .... Later I will explain it there, all of you there is additional direction.”


 


 


When he looked back at Mavis, Odo sighed lightly and felt he had to explain something to his mother because he had an astonished expression. Putting the right index finger in front of the mouth, the young man explained, “Then it was telepathy from Elulu, one of the women who helped me cook in the store. Mother has seen it, ‘kan?”


 


 


“Tele ... starch? Up to this distance?!” The blonde woman was a little confused. When he had previously met Elulu, Mavis had not detected the magic circuit that the female servant had ever trained.


 


 


“Emm, but that doesn't mean she's a witch.” Odo lowered his finger from the front of his mouth, let out a small sigh and went back to explain, “Elulu Indul Kalama, that woman is a Native Overhoul. Its power is Radd Sendangi, the ability to send sound without the limitation of distance and time.”


 


 


“Native ... An overhoul? Odo, you know they're—!”


 


 


 


 


“Ta-But .... Isn't that Native Overhoul completely unfamiliar with the concept of loyalty within them?”


 


 


“Hmm ...” Odo held both sides of Mavis's shoulders, taking her eight steps away from where they had stood before. Stop and look at his mother with a faint smile, the young man said, “I don't need excessive loyalty. As long as my condition still benefits her, that woman will definitely continue to work for me.”


 


 


“Te-Stay only! If he suddenly betrays and injures you—!”


 


 


Mavis' words came to a halt due to the air of existence that suddenly appeared where Odo was standing before. The sound of water dripping onto a puddle sounded faint, making the atmosphere silent for a moment. The Light Witch and Fiola simultaneously turned their heads towards the man who had suddenly appeared, then stared intently and immediately activated their magic nucleus with great vigilance.


 


 


“Relax, Mother ..., Ms. Fiola ...”


 


 


The man who had suddenly appeared was standing on a puddle of water that seemed to be emitting a blue light. Matthew Mitus, a man with golden and blue Heterochromia eyes, had blond hair and was about 30 years old. He immediately turned his head towards Odo, staring in bewilderment as his place after teleportation was very far from the city.


 


 


When Mavis saw the man's face, she immediately remembered one of the men from the shop that belonged to her son. He was really surprised because the man should also not have an active magic circuit, directly Mavis immediately concluded, “What is he also Native?”


 


 


“Hmm, his ability is Puddle, teleport objects with fluid like puddles under his feet it.”


 


 


Hearing the explanation, Mavis looked flat at her son and asked again, “Is there another Native that works for you? And also, why did you get the natives so easily? Mothers think cases like them are very rare ...”


 


 


“Besides him, Elulu, and Arca, I have no other Native acquaintances.”


 


 


“Arca ..?” At first glance Mavis narrowed her eyes and recalled that the son of Lady Calista was also a Native. Sighing slightly, the Light Witch muttered, “His son is also there, huh? Then ...”


 


 


Mavis glanced at Odo, thought of some things and smiled slightly. Taking a deep breath and puffing her chest slightly, the blonde woman said, “Alright, you won't protest more than this. It's up to you to hire them or something ...”


 


 


Even without the ability to read minds, Odo clearly understood what his mother was thinking when he reacted to the name Arca. “Ah, surely Mommy will ask Arca to watch me or something,” Odo's mind while turning away.


 


 


Staring at Matthew who still looked confused by what was around him, Odo pointed at the blond man and said, “What is your strength still connected to the store place?”


 


 


“Ya, Mr .... I set the other point on the second floor, there was no one other than Elulu there. Everyone has returned to the room and will just take a break.”


 


 


“Hmm ...” Hearing the answer, Odo immediately glanced towards Di’in and Ra’an. At a glance the cornea of the young man's eyes turned green, doing some calculations and considering many things. Pointing towards the two unconscious women, the young man said, “Then we move the two women lying there,”


 


 


Odo walked towards the two of them, glancing at Fiola at a glance and giving an annoyed expression for a few things. Looking back at the two women, the young man crouched down and carried Di’in's body, saying, “Mbak Fiola, can you lift the other one?”


 


 


“Eh—?” Fioal gasped for still being anxious with Odo's sharp glances earlier.  With a slightly stiff tone, he replied, “Ba-Good, Mr. Odo ..”  The Huli Jing immediately walked towards Ra’an, then carried him lightly and walked following Odo towards the blonde-haired man standing on the puddle.


 


 


A place for teleportation was less than four meters wide, shaped like a liquid and when stepped on it did not pool its legs at all. At first glance what is under Matthew does look liquid, but in reality it is quite solid and only visually corrugated because of the nature of molecular changes that exist.


 


 


While carrying Di’in, Odo stepped on Matthew's Puddle and entered his power range. Transparent light particles began to float from the glowing puddle-like substance, then enveloped the body of the black-haired young man with the woman he had raised. When Fiola entered into the range of these forces, he and the women he carried also experienced the same particle coating process.


 


 


“Come, Mother ...” Odo stared at Mavis, smiled small and asked, “We go back to the store first, I'm sleepy.”


 


 


“Eh, don't tell me to use that power?” Mavis pointed anxiously, looking reluctant to step inside the range of that power.


 


 


“Of course, this is more practical.”


 


 


Although reluctantly, the blonde woman finally stepped into the range of power. As the particles enveloped his body, Mavis gave a slight goosebump and immediately hugged Odo from the side.


 


 


“Matthew,” says Odo.


 


 


“Alright, Mr...”


 


 


The process of alignment using particles occurs, the objects that are above the puddle of water and enveloped in particles are trapped into a million and one objects. The way it works is like reinforcement magic, keeping the molecules in place so that the position of the atoms does not change. As everyone above the puddle of substances becomes a single object in a blanket of particles, atomic teleportation takes place.


 


 


Like drowning in deep lake water, they all went straight into the luminous substance and disappeared from the spot. In less than two seconds, the puddle of the substance also disappeared rapidly without leaving a trace.
