Engineering Travellers
CHAPTER 3: The Other Side of the World
“TECHNOLOGY CANNOT BRING YOU PAST OR FUTURE.”
“Long!! Lying!!! LIE This Lie!!!” I ran as hard as calm though very prone to run down this steep hill, many – times I fell and rose to a greater panic than the pain of falling from this hill. Once home some of the house is still burning, with breathing still fast I see someone inside the house asking for help. It was Kai who was being squeezed by the woods. I rushed into the house trying to avoid the fire that burned wood with my small body is very easy to enter on the sidelines of the wood that blocks.
“May!?.”
“Kai !.”
I shifted the wood that hit Kai's left leg, though, this wood is lumanyan heavy for people like me plus I'm a woman fortunately kai still able to walk we look for water as much as we can and bathe the fire. After the fire went out a bit at my house, Kai went to his house to see if his family was okay for some time. Kai told me back that his family was safe with only a few minor injuries, thank God his family is fine. I'm sitting at my dad's desk. Asking the strange thing during Kai's time to go see his family.
“I've checked all the household but I can't find them, where's my Mom and dad?.” My toot.
“May.. Ak-“.
“You were here when this village was released?.”
“iya I can cherry-“
“Where is my mom and dad!?.” My feelings are mixed with sadness.
“May, relax I'll tell you everything what happened.”
My emotions are overflowing today I'm trying to calm down, from the beginning I did not have to go to the mine it was all my fault it was clear all this was the man who was upset because the book I stole. It's all my fault, how stupid I am. Kai tried to calm me down he took me to his house I was sitting in his living room, half burning here, the ceiling of the house opened with flames made me see the sky directly. He brought me a glass of water and sat in front of me, with a guilty face. He opened his mouth and told me everything.
“May, I was sorry earlier. I've done everything I can, even when I'm stuck in your house I'm still trying to save your parents. It was about 12pm when your mother ran to the house and told your father that someone was looking for your father. A few moments later the person was in front of the workshop. A person with white hair with a red eagle logo on his chest symbolizes he is the leader of the richest organization in the world. They call him Altarego.” That's the guy I stole the book from.
“U-For what is he looking for my father?.” My toot.
“I don't know for sure, but he touched on a big project called Prototype-Circle Project that your father had created with a man named Willian Gerec the 12th. I don't know who he is but it looks like your father made such a big mistake that the Gerec family was angry with him in the end becoming a grudge.”
“Then what happened to my parents?.” Ask again.
“Your parents are still alive they brought your parents. Chances are he brought to the capital.” It is the largest city in the world all systems in some countries start from this country, the capital is named Magnifique, which is in the country Torikon. Yes here I live in a country called Torikon with a control center by the Capital Magnifique.
“May I have a question too, Where have you been all this time?.” Ask kei.
For a moment I was silent, and told what I had been doing with a slightly sorry face I took out the book I found in the mine and showed it to Kai.
“I went to the mine under the guidance of Mog, I used the Turqouise stone sample I got on the market the day before. I followed Mog's lead which turned out to lead me to a mine behind the village. When I came inside I saw the book.”
I told him the details of the first entry to the mine until I could find Mog's new strength, Kai was shocked and even I told the people who came to the house looking for the book. All the systems in that book I told you about. Kai was really stuck seeing the flow of the system in the book. Just like me he realized that this system is the flow of the Mog system. Kai goes into more detail and tells that he was involved in the making of the Mog. He recounted that the Mog was the system sought by the Altarego organization all along. And the reason why your father and mother were taken away.
“May, you must leave this village.” A kai's letter to me.
“Ha? You mean?.” My toot.
“One day he will come again here looking for Mog and this Book. You and Mog won't be able to fight him and his army, you have to get out of here May.”
“Mog can be good and Mog can even be evil it depends who made and educated him from the beginning. That guy wants to make a robot like the Mog and rule the world with a system like the Mog. The seven precious stones that each of the precious stones has power and who ordered the Mog depends on the intention of the person. Whether the command is good or evil depends on the master.”
I just fell silent and saw that little robot Mog could be evil. I have to get out of here on the other side I have to find my mom and dad. The capital of the region with a security system that is not playing, the distance of the capital from my village hundreds of kilometers takes days to arrive even with pleasure but I do not want my mother and father to happen something.
It was getting dark, I slept at home kai who has an empty room I use to rest today, the events of today are so dashyat make emotions mixed. The next day I won't see my mom and dad I have to become more independent now. And most importantly I had to go find my mother and father, both with the Mogs, to explore this vast world.
“Beep..”.
“Mog?”
“Beep Beep?”
“No Mog, I will not make you evil, never will. I will never hand you over to them.” I hugged the little robot, he's my family now.
The day began to dim, the chaos this afternoon began to extinguish followed by the weakening of the sun. I was exhausted all this time I never experienced where I had to be abandoned by my parents who were always there at all times. The sense of regret began to grow and became such a sore wound, the more I remembered it the more I was injured. From tomorrow my life will have to be independent, the important thing is that I have to get out of this village and find both my parents, and how important this little robot is to make one of the organizations want it.
Today, February 28, 2300, this morning I stood in front of my house while indeed the laptop I took in my father's workshop was fortunately still saved and not taken by the organization, which was not taken, Mog is here he's been scanning* everything in the house stuff I might not know, and it's important to bring it today. Yes I have decided, today I will leave this village.
“you're ready to go may?.” From a distance came the sound of kai, he looked different from a foot wrapped in bandages and walked with the help of a cane.
“ya..” I was shocked
“lho... Why are your legs, not yesterday okay?.” My toot.
“Ya initially it was okay, at night my parents were worried and brought the elderly grandmother who was a therapist and took a foot massage as a result even more sick.” Obviously him.
“then the bandage is for what?.” Askaqua.
“I don't understand too, the old man put it over he said to keep my bones from crooked, when it's okay.”
“Hehehe.” I laugh shows I'm fine.
“beep beep!” The thing Mog doesn't do is scan myself.
The day has begun during the day my preparation to leave this village is ready, I sit in the chair, I leave
from Kai's house, his mother gave me enough supplies for the next few days. Yes for the next few days. I brought my small bag, and a backpack that measures 32 cm long x 13 cm wide x 45 cm high. that is enough to include items that will be carried around. The world has advanced so rapidly all goods such as tents, clothes, packed in cylindrical capsules whose size is 3 cm in diameter and 5 cm in length. All holograms I just push the button and the items I pack into the capsule will come out this technology is indeed useful for travelers small size and fit a lot in a normal size backpack. The world is now practical, one of the things that makes me believe on this journey is Mog with a system that always surprises me I believe Mog can protect me.
Until I was in front of the gate of this village kai and his parents drove me here and gave me some messages that I had to follow, for the map in the Mog System already exists. Kai's parents told me that I had to walk to the adjacent village that was 10 Km away which took 2 - 3 hours more to walk, the village was very fertile in contrast to here. My journey will start from 1 pm where the sun is really right on top of my head. Preparation to leave took a long time and I couldn't possibly leave in the afternoon because my target for the night should already be in the next village and staying there. By the way about staying there is no free lodging of course, Kai gave me money, today money is no longer in physical form all in digital form. People call it Cashless Non-cash money used for transactions, This money is stored in the Ecowristwatch communication tool that I saw when my mother touched it, I found it when I checked the house, it's still working fine I'm holding it in my right hand. Kai gave me a lot of money, I had to hold it well.
My journey began, I set foot with confidence one day I will meet my mother and father back. Accompanied by my little robot the next day will surprise this little robot is the rarest robot in the whole world, and he is the only family I have for now. I turned around and waved to Kai and his family, they replied by waving their hands as well.
“Ayo Mog, we can't Go Back anymore.” With complete confidence I stepped where I was not in the safe zone anymore this was all for the family I love, I had to grow up I, had to be a strong woman.
“Beep!.”
