Exploring the Dimension After Reincarnation: Academic

The Athalia Region

Ignoring Kai's question, Emera went inside the cave. “H-Hey! Don't ignore me!” yell Kai. It was a pity that Emera ignored and she continued walking into the cave. This place is very humid. Water dripped from the ceiling and the road was slippery. They need to be careful because the rock floor is not good for landing.

Walking for some time, they finally reached a spacious room.

“Finally you came too, Emera. Have you brought the person I want to meet?”

“Already, Mr. Lucia.”

“So that's Lucia?” Kai looked up, followed by Dr. Francais.

Lucia is an either. Right now all he looks at is his head. It was like an eel with a pointed head. Its body is green on the top and white on the bottom. There was a pattern of spiral lines that filled his body. There is also a golden crown of wood.

“True, I am Lucia. One of the things left behind in this world. I absorbed the water from underground to turn this arid area into an area suitable for my residence. But since my body is too big this place becomes like this,” is obviously either of it.

“Seeing from the way you speak, it seems that we see only a small part of your head,” guess Dr. Francais.

“True, this is just my head. My real body is this whole forest,” replied Lucia.

“Eh? Then, I attacked you?” Kai realized his mistake. “I'm sorry. I didn't expect if...”.

“It's okay, Young Man. You're not wrong. Having a body that is too big makes hackers come in and mess me up. Instead I thank you for removing the body part of the hacker.’

“You are in a complicated situation, yes. Attacked by hackers...,” said Dr. Francais.

“I don't know how they can exist. But there were some people who came and took samples of my body. They even made copies of myself elsewhere. A copy of my body had been modified with another entity that made it mess up and made it mess up somewhere. But you guys take it easy, I feel like he's been exterminated.”

“Destroy either? Who can do it?” Kai scrunched his forehead.

“Okay, I don't know either. For sure he is very strong.” Lucia then switched the topic, “Which is more important than that I want to ask you for help. I want you to destroy whoever attacked me.”

“Why aren't you alone? What can a human being like us do? Penther in this day and age is much weaker than anyone like you,” asked Dr. Francais.

“I'm basically a plant. I can't move. All I could do was channel the roots from underground and grow my other self somewhere else. Then you guys just calm down. I can sense that your penther has a bloodline either.”

“Bromo Agni?” mumbling Kai.

“Then, I will also send Emera as my representative. You don't mind ‘kan Emera?”

“It's okay, Mr. Lucia.” Emera lowered her head. “They can be caught by a wild tribe like Inicia. I'm so worried about letting them alone.”

“Sapart of me—mini—version will come with Emera. He will explain what information I get.”

The journey of Alex, Theresa, Sophia, Yovanca, and Noctis takes them to the Athalia— Region the southernmost point of the Kingdom of Pulchrasia. Later on about the Athalia Region, it was the territory belonging to Yovanca's father and mother, with Adrian Athalia as the head of the family and Bolena Athalia as his wife. They were both old, but still took care of the territory since there was no heir.

Yovanca as the first daughter married Alden Madison and was in Madison County. Pracowity, or second daughter who was adopted, married the King of Pulchrasia, Zarknela, then she became Queen and lived in the royal palace. Hence the two old men needed to take care of the territory that borders directly with overseas. They take care of areas that have a lot of troops for security. More or less that's what Yovanca explained to Theresa.

"W-Wah.. te-this place is very different from other regions…." Theresa was astonished as she looked up out the window.

"Atahalia Military Special Region. This place is certainly different from the others. In other regions there were commoners, merchants, and others. But here, here 90% of the population are soldiers and 8% are traders from outside, and the rest are from various circles. The region itself gets a flow of military funds from the kingdom and is tasked with guarding the border. This place is not suitable for travelers" Yovanca explained.

"If anyone dares to steal here…." Theresa thought of a thief who was being chased by warriors from all over the region.

Sophia sat down while closing her eyes. Spirits and contractors can share what they think. Because vision also enters the brain and also includes what contractors think, visual sharing is also possible with deep focus. This is what Sophia did. He saw and heard what Theresa saw and heard.

Having a spirit of contract has its own advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is to get closeness to the same elements that the spirit has, the disadvantage is the loss of privacy. Just imagine someone watching you 24/7. It must have been very annoying and not free. Not to mention if the spirit is bucket-mouthed and opposite sex (although the original spirit gender spirit is neutral). Even a shower will feel like a secret stopper.

It didn't take long to be in the car. Finally they reached the Atahalia House. After parking the carriage, the five of them entered the mansion. The servants lined up to greet them, then there was Bolena Athalia as a representative of the Atahalia Family.

Bolena is over 70 years old. The forehead and other places were filled with wrinkles. Her hair was emerald green, just like Yovanca's pupils. His eyes were red-orange like the color of fire. He wears a shirt and a long brown skirt. On his neck was a coiled scarf. Even though he is old he is still energetic and does his job well. Not just any ordinary grandmother.

"Welcome. How are you, Yovanca? Is that cold grandson of mine coming with you?" Bolena held out her hand and said cynically.

"Well, it's a pity that he's not coming with us. The last news from Elena was that she was sent to another world while facing the enemy. Now we still don't know where it is" Yovanca explained.

"What-What!" Bolena surprised. "Huh. Maybe this is his fate as a bad grandson." He cleared his throat before continuing, "Get in first. We're talking inside."

They all went into the living room. There are 2 sofas that are opposite each other with a long table separating.2 chairs are also placed complementing each side of the long table. Yovanca sits in the middle of Theresa and Sophia, Noctis with Alex, while Bolena is in her own seat. There Yovanca mapped out all the last conditions about Elena. Bolena is quite sad to know her grandson is in the outside world (another world), but she distracts with "Durhaka's Grandson".

Indeed, information about Elena was not included in the official report. Elena was still not fully affiliated with the royal palace. He's not a soldier. Noble, he's still a kid. Reporting her as a soldier would give you an idea of if Elena had gone into the military. Moreover, Elena et al. also had a secret mission from the King to investigate Red Moon. The report reads, "A noble princess was involved and kidnapped. Further investigation ruled out."

"Hmhp! So in the end he had to feel a sense of solitude in the other world? Let him feel the torment of not visiting his Grandmother.” Bolena folded her hands.

‘Elena, I don't know how you were when you were little, but your grandmother hates you so much!’ the screams in Theresa.
