"But now I'm hungry." Ken took off his hug and saw his mother's smile.
"It's gonna be late, but it's okay. We're having dinner faster than usual." Mother then stood up and prepared a simple dinner inside the tent. Pieces of roasted beef and a glass of goat milk. They talked while enjoying dinner together.
Ken was so happy to meet his mother that he suddenly remembered someone. A person dressed similar to his mother, Mongolian clothes. "Mother, do you know someone named Mira? She's dressed just like Mom."
"Mira's? Miracle mean?"
"Oh, you know me?" Ken stopped eating.
"of course. She's mom's army."
"Army?"
"Yes, Ken. She was sent to help you."
"Oh, so."
"Listen to what he says. You can also ask him about a lot of things."
"Mmh .. But somehow, I feel like I've known him before, somewhere." The man glared.
The woman took a quick glance at him, then lowered her head as Ken stared at her. "Some, you're the only one who knows."
"But, by the way, my mother is now king of the Mongols, right?"
"Yes, king. Men."
"Huh?"
"You see a woman's mother, but for ordinary men, they see a man's mother."
Ken gawking. "How can you?"
"Mother enters the Mongol king's body. The soldier saw that mother was indeed the king. Only you who see mother is mother."
Ken's still gawking.
"'And the mother is a goddess" said the woman with a smile.
"Eh, yes." Ken went back to chewing his food while thinking. "Eh, how did this place become the first place I moved dimensions huh?"
"Mk." Mom finished her chew and then drank a sip of goat's milk. "It actually depends on what you think the time you move dimensions is. What were you thinking at the time?"
Ken thought for a moment. "I was sad thinking about Mimi. My little brother was actually killed by Lord Z, but is that why I moved to this age?"
"You're sad? You need to be entertained? Did you find anyone who could comfort you?"
Ken's speechless. She recalled the Yeti, an animal sad to lose its baby. With him he shared his grief. Perhaps that is why he was able to move to that era because he needed an escape and the escape place was a kind-hearted Yeti creature.
He felt how hard it was to forget the sadness that made him forget, he had troubled many people. It's not just him who lost Mimi, it's Yumi, it's the whole orphanage and that's how life is. He must keep going because he who is alive can choose those who are gone, no.
At least he can still try to free Yumi. The girl is now in the hands of Lord Z and now she just wants to free her. To free him he needs strength. Then, what kind of power was he actually capable of working on other than healing himself?
"Mother, do you know my powers other than being able to heal yourself?" ask the man again.
"Mother has never met a demigod other than you so you have to figure out for yourself your strength" said Mother softly. Mmm, hopefully you're not mad at me, son, because I lied to you.
Ken's speechless.
"But you can learn."
"Oh, no. It's a skill, an ability you need. You just think you want to learn what, by itself when you move dimensions, you move to a place where you can learn that."
The man's eyes were wide open. "Is that so?" He smiled happily. "I can't wait to complete my first mission and move dimensions. I want to be strong and tough to defeat Lord Z and free Yumi. 'Yumi wait for me'!" Ken is excited to finish his dinner.
The woman smiled looking at Ken. He was also happy that the man was starting to adapt to the changes around him.

As the day started at night, Sri's mother decided to let her son stay in the tent for the night. After all, by nightfall, the people at the scene of the search for the crash victims must have gone home and will start looking again tomorrow morning so Ken should stay there another day.
Ken quickly fell asleep. His face was filled with excitement and fell asleep with a smile. Before long the smile disappeared replaced with a smooth snoring that came out of the thick-lipped mouth. Mother smiled to see the face of the beloved child was soundly asleep.
Were it not for a destiny that her son would have to pass through, she knew Ken had to be hidden, trying to go against her conscience as a mother. He desperately wants to raise Ken but on the other hand he must not mess up the fate that his son must pass.
He must be understood because he himself as a god also follows the destiny that has been outlined. Something that has been expressed and cannot be prevented because he himself is in the same system. He could only follow without being able to refute it because otherwise it would be fatal for all.
He gently pulled Ken's hair aside and tidied up the blanket. The face was touched once again from his forehead, temples, and cheeks, before he moved to the bed next to Ken's bed. A thin mattress that was on top of the carpet. He went in and pulled the blanket and started sleeping.
--------+++--------
Ken was awakened by a subtle pat on the shoulder keeping him awake for a moment. "Mmh?" With her eyes she looked at who woke her up. A woman and she were shocked to the point of sitting down immediately.
His mind was still wondering why the woman woke him up and entered the room until finally his memory returned and he was ashamed of himself. "Ah, Mother."
"Yes. You don't want breakfast?"
"Eh, yes, Mom." The man rubbed his eyes with his hands. Ken, although he looks like a 30-year-old man but acts like a 20-year-old because that is the real Ken.
A man entered the tent and saluted the mother. "The horse is prepared, my lord."
"Mmhmd. Maybe we'll leave a little late."
Okay, Your Majesty." The man saluted back then walked out of the tent.
Sri's mother brought a basin of warm water and a small towel. "This. You used to wash your face here. If you want to take a shower, you have to go to a river that's a long way from here."
"It's okay. This is enough." The man washed his face with warm water and dried it slowly using a towel. He then had breakfast with his mother.
The man looked at his mother while eating.
It makes mom curious. "What's wrong?"
"No."
"Is there anything you want to ask" said the mother again.
"I just want to remember my mom's face."
Ken's melancholy speech made her feel even more guilty, but she braced herself not to cry. "Eat your breakfast, Ken. Don't think no!" he said a little firmly.
The actions of his mother who is sometimes soft and sometimes hard make the man often confused to face this woman, even though Ken only does not know the contents of his heart.
