Chapter 2 - 2. Emrys Heritage Signal

Amalthea.

Eight of the Eleven shards of the Emrys Legacy have been recovered and brought back to Amalthea. The eight fragments immediately returned to their original place. It's just that it can't be put together in its original form, because the other three fragments haven't been found yet.

Queen Aria had started to recover from her tribulation. She has been in a coma for years. Thanks to the sons and daughters of the Gamma Family, the Queen has now regained her senses even though her body is still very weak.

Even so, it didn't mean that Amalthea's condition immediately recovered. The shards that have been found are capable of awakening the Queen and also slowly recovering natural resources. But the struggle for land rights is still going on everywhere.

Several rebel groups that turned out to be under the leadership of followers of Hugo Lorelei mastermind the seizure of the eastern part of Amalthea. The area was badly damaged and many of the indigenous people who inhabited it were displaced and forced to live in the forests near the West Amalthea border.

The raiders of these lands did not dare to approach western Amalthea because it was close to the Kingdom's territory. After all the skilled warriors were stationed within the borders near the forest. And ironically, residents of East Amalthea, who lost their homes, were not allowed to enter West Amalthea. Because most of them suffered from infectious diseases since they're long stares in the forest.

The soldiers also did not dare to go further into East Amalthea because of the strength of the rebel groups that controlled the East Amalthea region. The medical volunteers were finally ordered to treat the residents who contracted the infectious disease before it spread and entered West Amalthea.

Gamma's eight sons and daughters are now facing the Queen who is back on her throne with the royal ministers. One of the ministers in the office is Mr. Riku Gamma and also his three wives have produced Eleven sons and daughters who are struggling to find the shards of the Emrys Legacy.

Queen Aria was still pale and weak, but she forced herself to return to the throne that she had left for decades. With the rise and recovery of Queen Aria, the people are arranging because the hope of their lives means they have returned.

But the Queen herself has ordered the occupants of the palace not to spread her self-wide state to the people at this time. The Queen only ordered that some of the Emrys shards had been found, so the Queen had started to recover but had not regained consciousness. She did this so that the rebels would not know about it so that the palace could develop an attack strategy as neatly and subtly as possible.

"Thank you Riku, you and your children have saved Amalthea."Queen Aria smiled sincerely at the middle-aged man sitting on one of the ministerial chairs.

The Queen looks quite old today from being in a coma for years. Her body was pale and thin so the dress she was wearing was a little too big. But his face is still beautiful. If the remaining Emrys shards were found soon, then the Queen's life would also be restored to normal. Including the physical body.

Mr.Riku Gamma immediately knelt, saluting profusely. Until a few seconds, the middle-aged man just raised a face that looked so touching.

"I and the ministers are certainly very happy and grateful for your recovery, Your Majesty. Amalthea needs you right now. Because our strength alone is not good enough. I would like to apologize for not being able to protect Amalthea while you are still asleep."

What Mr.Riku was talking about referred to the current state of East Amalthea and its people. The Queen knew the news a few days ago. Queen Aria then got up slowly, assisted by her two maids.

"I already knew what happened. The chaos that happened in Amalthea was my fault. So don't feel guilty Riku. I held this meeting to reclaim all of Amalthea's land which should belong to the people of Amalthea. I will return the land to them. And I won't spare those rebels, including my brother."

The Queen spoke vehemently, looking at the ministers and commanders who were present one by one. Gamma's eight sons and daughters witnessed the meeting. Witnessing the anger of the Queen and also the awakening of Amalthea's power, which had been almost pushed back.

Don't know where this courage and self-esteem come from. But the Queen's words had made all the souls present in the room feel a sense of hope. That they would no longer fear the rebels. They will defend West Amalthea and reclaim East Amalthea from the rebels.

"East Amalthea won't be easy. That's why I want your plans and cooperation. But before that, I want the sons and daughters of Gamma to lead the troop division. They already possess part of the Emrys Legacy, so their magic power will be indispensable. I hope you don't refuse."

The eight brothers looked at each other with wide smiles. Of course, they won't refuse, because that's what they also want. The eldest son, Edric, then stepped forward and knelt. Representing his younger siblings to convey their answers to Queen.

"Whatever Your Majesty's orders, for the well and freedom of Amalthea, we are ready to carry out the task."

"Thank you Edric, I'm counting on you and all of you, of course. Let's liberate the land of Amalthea and restore the glory of this country."

*****

Three days have passed. Kai started working at a construction company office in Central Jakarta City. Previously, the last stops were in the cities of Samarinda and Bandung and it took about three months. But the coordinates they got never indicated that the Emry's heritage was in that area. This is the last city of their destination in this country. If Emily's signal is not there then they will proceed to the next country.

As a result of Kai's life, which often moves and always stays for a short time, he has many identities and works experiences. He's been complaining that it's hard to get a job because Kai is so picky with it. And that makes Rex often irritated because of his nature.

Rex was just getting annoyed at Kai for tricking him of money. Who would have thought that this man had a mistress without Rex's knowledge? He complained about being poor and penniless but had just rented an apartment for ten million a month.

But the annoyance only happened temporarily. Rex is currently returning to his duties as a Guide while Kai is at work. He oversees the Coordinate point, which appears at any time at a certain point around the area. They already got the coordinates themselves when they first came to Earth. One of the reasons it was difficult to find the Emrys shard even if the coordinates of the object already existed as part of Hugo's plan.

Hugo and his cohorts spread the fragments of the Emrys Legacy evenly over a certain part of the Earth. So coordinate points will always appear in several places as a result of the debris alone. Hugo tried to trick the Gamma family from easily finding the Legacy shard.

Currently, Kai was struggling in front of the monitor screen while typing the numbers printed on the sheet of paper beside him. It's not difficult for Kai to make financial reports because he was quite an expert at that job. In just ten minutes, he completed his task and was preparing to send the financial report to his superiors.

He also deftly arranges all the financial reports in the book neatly. Even though he's still a new employee who still needs guidance, it seems like Kai doesn't need it. This, of course, makes his friends and bosses happy because they don't have to bother spending time mentoring new kids.

"Good job Kai, it's rare to have a new employee who understands quickly like you, handsome again!" praised his boss after receiving the financial report submitted by Kai.

"Thank you. No need to overdo it, Madam, I'm used to handling this," Kai said with a small smile.

"It's not an exaggeration, because your CV application is stunning. You have a lot of experience working abroad, it turns out."

"Before moving to Indonesia, I did live abroad."

"But your Indonesian is fluent, even though I see you were born in Germany. Have you lived here for a long time?"

"Not yet, madam. But I used to live in Indonesia when I was still at school." Kai smiled bitterly, feeling a little bad that his life was always full of lies. But luckily his boss didn't ask any more questions about his personal life.

It's already half past six in the afternoon, Kai is still sitting in front of the copier with hundreds of sheets of paper that must be finished that very day. Damn, innocent newcomers always get this kind of job. Many people have gone home, and only a few employees like him are left who also suffer the same misfortune.

While waiting for his work to finish, Kai looked at his phone to see if Rex had sent a message. But the sly cat didn't even ask how he was in one day. Kai wonders what he's doing now, it seems like Rex is still angry about yesterday's problem.

Kai's heartbeat suddenly stopped. A deafening-sounding signal suddenly filled his head. The man was incredibly surprised, he rushed to run towards the window glass where he was now standing in a room on the fifteenth floor.

The expression on his face that was always flat waiting for days like this would come, now turned into an excited smile. A blue-green light flashed like a signal in the distance. It was located a few kilometers from where Kai was currently.

That light was the signal from the Emrys Legacy. The heirloom that he had been looking for for a long time to the corners of this Earth for three years. Not expecting it, the last place he stopped in this country was the place where Hugo's men kept the last shard of Emrys.

Without thinking Kai immediately ran downstairs, leaving his work unfinished. The copier was still running with the papers in it. A female employee who saw Kai's behavior just gaped without reprimanding them. He only glanced at the tasks he also had to do that day.

But it seems Kai gave him another inspiration and courage. He immediately tidied up his things and left his work unfinished. Everyone needs a break from their routine, especially when the work they are doing doesn't count as overtime.

Kai ran out of the building without his briefcase. He cut the main road and penetrated the crowds of people passing by who were still so densely filling the streets. Using his mind telepathy, Kai contacts Rex who may also have noticed Emrys' signal coming.

When he arrived at a deserted place, Kai used teleportation magic by swapping his body with an object in the place where he was going at this time. He couldn't use his magical powers while he was on Earth unless Emrys' signal had appeared. And this is it.

PULP

The sound came along with Kai's figure disappearing and being replaced by the appearance of a trash can. Kai appears at a housing complex, right where he swapped his body with the trash can earlier. Fortunately, at that time no one was passing in the area.

The light that glowed from the Emrys Legacy looked even more real. Kai again ran towards another part of the complex. From the appearance of the buildings there, this area belongs to the elite. The house is spacious, stately, and full of luxury cars.

With a quick breath and an impatient face, Kai finally arrived at a two-story gray and white painted house where the light from the Emrys signal came from. The light came from a back room on the first floor of the building.

Without thinking, Kai immediately jumped over the fence, which was not too high, and crossed the yard towards the back of the house. While hoping that none of the residents of the house will see his movements.

This man was reckless and reckless, or it could be said that Kai had waited too long for this moment to come. Kai arrived at the trellis window, where the light of the Emrys Legacy was located, which was glowing more and more intensely. He carefully looked inside, for the window curtains were still open.

The blue-green light glowed as if blinding the eyes. Kai's heart was beating faster and faster because he was happy that his job in this tiring place was almost finished.

But when his eyes got used to the glare of the heirloom's light, Kai could only be stunned. The task he had imagined would be completed, but in reality, it would be far more difficult than he had expected. Because that shard of the Emrys Legacy was not in the form of an object but appeared and lived inside a girl's body. A sweet-looking young girl was folding a pile of clothes in the room.
