INJUSTICE: Save Human Or Surrender

#17 Flashback Clement II (REVISION)

A beautiful and bright night. It was full of small stars in the sky.

A crowded night.

Because the family from next door father and mother came to the house and held a dinner together to celebrate Clement's graduation day. It is a Dominique tradition that must be done if there is one family party who managed to win.

Mother made an apple pie for Clement as a reward for the achievements he had achieved.

"MY MOTHER IS SO DELICIOUS!!!" exclaim Clement while eating a piece of apple pie super soft made by mother.

"Eat a lot, son!" said mom while stroking Clement's curls. "Let's fat."

"I don't want to get fat, Mom!" clement said with his mouth full of apple pie.

Mom just laughed looking at her childlike attitude. He was already a teenager. For some reason every time mom made a cake, she felt like she was flying to heaven.

"You can be diabetic if you keep eating sweet foods" said the grandmother from next door.

"Kasie, you better not make your son sweet treats!" continued.

"Mom, I don't eat sweets very often" Clement explained. "Sometimes it's okay."

"I also burn calories every morning" he continued.

"It's so smart!" uncle Paul said to Clement with a smile.

Mom just smiled looking at Clement who was enjoying a piece of apple pie. He ruffled Clement's hair until it fell apart.

I always make sweet food as dessert every time I finish lunch and dinner. Clement himself knew that eating sweet foods too often was not good, but what else ....

Mother's cooking is second to none!

After 4 hours of gathering with the family from the father and mother, they finally decided to go home because the time was getting late and they had to do their routine activities tomorrow.

At 00.36am.

Some of them got drunk because they drank too much red wine from Uncle Paul. Uncle Paul brought a large bottle of red wine directly from the fermentation of the vineyard in the village where he lived. Clement was even offered to sip a glass of red wine, but he refused because honestly he himself did not like such a drink.

I'd rather have tea or syrup than drink it.

Family members started to leave the house. They hugged each other with mom and dad.

"Bye, Kasie!"

"Bring me a lot of wine, yeah, later!"

"Thank you for the delicious meal!"

"Next time I come again, yes, Albert!"

"Success always and never give up like your father, son Clement!"

They all use private vehicles. They came from the nobility and conglomerates just like mother and father.

Clement kept waiting for their form to disappear from his yard.

Stay by the door. Both of his eyes were getting tired. He can't wait to meet her bed.

Soon, Clement and his parents returned home and locked the door.

"Son, help me clean the dishes at the table!" said the mother while carrying a pile of dishes to the kitchen.

"Good, Mom!" clement said that immediately helped mom bring dirty dishes on the table to the kitchen and wash them one by one.

"Mom," call Clement down.

"Hmm?" The mother's gaze while focused on drying one by one plate using a washcloth.

"Will you always be there forever?" tanyakanya.

She smiled and said, "All these are the secrets of the Almighty, Clement,"

"We all don't know when we're leaving the world."

My mother was a very religious woman.

"Then, while you can still see you, be a successful person and pursue your dreams!" he looked at Clement.

Then she hugged Clement.

I want to be with you always, Mom!

"Great mother's son!" said mom while motivating Clement. Clement just smiled at Mom.

After all the work was done, Clement decided to step back towards his room that had called him from earlier. Can't wait to throw himself on his bed.

Suddenly he remembered the chocolate Rachel gave him at school.

Chocolate with heart shaped box.

He took the box from his desk. He looked at every corner of the box. His gaze was fixed on a small piece of paper folded there. Clement opened it.

For Clement,

Hiya, hiya,

Thank you so much for reading this message. This was my first chocolate. I've spent a lot of time on chocolate making courses for you. How's it feel?

I hope it doesn't feel awful hehe.

I would love to be able to interact with you even if this is impossible because you don't know me.

After graduating from school, I wanted to continue my parents' efforts in cheese making. How're you? I hope you have a good plan after graduation. Develop your magic!

Okay, get here. I honestly don't know what else to say. Have a nice day!

Thanks again!

Warm regards, dear,

Rachel Florence

Clement read every sentence in the letter, He smiled in anguish.

It was so strange that kid.

Then he opened the heart-shaped box and took one of the many chocolates inside. Chocolate with various toppings on it.

How creative!

Clement took one of the chocolates with a topping of white granules and small red berries so as to give a beautiful impression.

He ate.

In one bite, though,

Tasty.

He did not feel strange at all in his taste. It's just that the sweet taste is a bit excessive, but so far, this chocolate tastes like the chocolate I used to eat.

Rachel, you're talented at making chocolate. Develop your talent!

He hopes that the words he said in his heart reach Rachel even though it was impossible.

He ate chocolate alone in the middle of the night watching the beautiful night sky in a window filled with small stars.

Until finally, the first day at the Alvist Magic Academy arrived.

Clement had to part with his parents because he had to settle down in the dormitory during his time studying at this academy.

So heavy.

However, it is his duty.

He did not complete his education for 4 years, but only a year because his magic power exceeded the limits of his contemporaries. So, he graduated from this academy along with the previous batch.

Since he managed to obtain perfect grades and was ranked first, he also had the opportunity to be placed in a reputable and secure alliance.

Alliance Amdis.

But to get there, he and some others had to use a train that would take several hours.

His first impression upon arriving in front of the headquarters of the Amdis Alliance was enough to amaze him. From the look of his headquarters it seemed a little strange to him. His base was like a palace in the fairy tale books he had read before.

There is a colorful dome on it.

And also the wind here is quite strong because the area is located in the North or it is summer though. Hot weather can only last a week and the rest is cool and cold.

Jan is from Courtfeig Hero Academy.

Jan greets Clement first while enjoying a box of wheat crackers in the courtyard after clearing the base. Jan was very active in inviting Clement to talk so that Clement himself was tired of responding.

"Clement," call Jan. "Are you at the expedition meeting later this afternoon?"

"Hmm," replied Clement who was enjoying his own time. However, his time has been ruined by Jan.

"I can't wait to go on an expedition for the first time!" said Jan.

Clement simply listened to her words and continued eating.

Clement began to know many people since the training period. He began to interact a lot with his contemporaries as well as the older seniors. Not infrequently they were surprised because of the age of Clement who was younger than the children and his height is still relatively short than those who like electricity poles. Because of this, he is often called 'Bocah' or 'Cebol'.

But that was normal for him.

On his first expedition, Clement was nearly ambushed by a demon. However, he was helped by Jan. Instantly Jan immediately quells the demon until it is lifeless.

"Are you alive?" tanyakanya.

"No," Clement answered and immediately exerted his magic power to help Jan finish off the demons that disturbed them.

Finally, his first expedition succeeded. They managed to reconquer the City of Torrfen in the South. The city was immediately given a combined shield by the Greer members led by Squad Commander Sofia.

Do you remember Andri?

Now he changed direction to become a Mathematics teacher at a school. He's getting closer to Elise. It's all thanks to Clement's advice to him.

Andri routinely sends Clement a letter. But lately he has not done that.

Probably busy with work ....

Clement still doesn't know Rachel's news. He may be a successful cheese entrepreneur.

Until one day, he came a letter from the post of Amdis.

"Letter from father"

Clement didn't think he was sending him a letter, but he had never done this before.

Clement immediately picked up the letter which was still wrapped in a white envelope. He opened the envelope and found a folded piece of paper inside and read it.

To my dear father's son, Clement.

Clement, clement,

How are you doing, son? Sorry I just sent you a letter this time.

Son, I want to tell you something.

An unpleasant news.

Your mother has been missing without news since a few days ago. Dad found mom not home since 08:00 in the morning. After that, he did not know where and was being sought by the police.

I want you back to Alvist if this is possible. Families are mourning the loss of your mother.

I hope you're okay.

I'm sure in the next few days your mother will be back.

Take care of your health and do not forget to get enough rest!

Darling you,

Albert Dominique's.

Instantly Clement's heart went numb.

NOT POSSIBLE?!

He could not believe that he had bad news from his family.

Mother disappeared ....

"No, it's impossible!" Clement rushed out of his room, holding a letter from his father, to Commander Vincent's room to inform him of the incident he had just experienced and to provide evidence to Commander Vincent about it.

"Therefore, I ask Commander Vincent's permission to return to Alvist for a while" Clement explained in front of Commander Vincent in his room.

There's been an awkwardness between him and Commander Vincent.

"How long were you there?"

"4 days, Commander."

"Okay" he said. "But you need to get back in time."

"Thank you very much, Commander Vincent for your permission!" said Clement. "I promise to be back in time."

"Yes, equally!" commander Vincent said with a smile. "Hope your mother come back soon."

"Okay, Commander!" clement said while saluting in front of Commander Vincent. After that, he immediately left the room.

He straightened up his clothes

into a big bag in his room.

"Hey, Clement!" greet Jan. His sudden presence in the back managed to shock Clement.

"Why are you tidying your clothes in a bag?" jan asked astonished to see Clement's action.

"I have to go back to Alvist" Clement said, putting some clothes in his bag. "My mom disappeared all of a sudden."

Suddenly Jan patted Clement's shoulder from behind. "I'm sad to hear it."

"May your mother be well!"

"Thank you, Jan!" said Clement. He immediately took his bag out of the room. "Bye!"

"Be careful on the road!" jan told Clement who started to move away from the room. Clement only smiled and again stepped out of the headquarters of the Amdis Alliance.

Not infrequently some of his classmates gave him fortitude for the events that happened to him at this time.

Thank you all, I promise to come back!

Clement had to go back many hours of travel to meet his family in Alvist.

--

Arrive at Alvist, at home.

Clement could see the faces of his family from next to his moody father and mother. Grandma from next to mother cries incessantly while holding a photo of the mother who is posing in the flower garden. Father sat on a wooden chair while pensively lamenting the fate he suffered.

"Dad," call Clement all of a sudden. "Why did you let me go alone?"

"This is not the will of father, Clement," replied the father.

"But at least I can stop you from leaving!" said Clement.

"If it were going to be like this, I wouldn't let your mother do that just so you know!" obviously father with a somewhat snapping voice.

"The police are looking for your mother, Clement," said Aunt Morgin with a smile on her face. "Patience, dear."

"CAN'T THE POLICE BE TRUSTED, HUH?!" scream Clement. "PATIENCE HAS ITS LIMITS AND WHEN SHOULD WE BE PATIENT?!!"

Suddenly he got up from his seat and slapped Clement. His actions caused Clement to shock instantly.

"NON-THAT'S YOU!" snapped Dad. "BECAUSE YOU'RE BETTER OFF YOU SHOULD JUST REFUTE THE WORDS OF AN OLDER PERSON!"

"Is that what you're capable of now?" ask the father with a red face. His emotions had already peaked seeing the treatment of his son.

"Already, Albert!" said Uncle Paul who tried to calm the father who was getting heated up. "Calm down!"

"Dad doesn't want to lose your mother as long as you know!" said father. Her tears suddenly fell down profusely right on her cheeks.

"DAD LOVES YOUR MOTHER SO MUCH, SON!"

Dad immediately held Clement who was silent peeking in his arms of sadness. She also cried on her father's shoulder.

Crying to lose the figure of the mother who had been in his life.

Moms, Moms,

Where exactly are you?!

Don't leave me, Mom!!

Hurry back!
