Chapter 242: chapter 242- Two Children
- A few days later.
As a King, Taufik did not do much, and again, if his grandmother knew this, she would be very jealous, this happened for various reasons, one of which was Gaia, almost all official affairs were handled by Gaia, and the other reason was as mentioned before, the people in the kingdom were very skilled in their fields, so almost all problems were always resolved between them, and Taufik would only receive the final results later from Gaia.
However, this does not mean that Taufik's work is just lazing around. Once in a while, when there is a problem that cannot be solved in the "usual way", they always ask for help from Taufik.
One thing that has not changed in this kingdom after eight years of existence is that no one is interested in the thing called "Nobility". Because every time Taufik brings this up, the answer they give is always the same.
"Rank and status will only give rise to bad traits, such as Greed and selfishness, with status and Rank, Caste will be created in society even though we do not want it... When that happens, divisions will be created and from divisions, conflicts will slowly emerge, and the result of conflict is destruction, that is what we want to avoid the most, Your Majesty, moreover with our Kingdom which is inhabited by various races, we do not reject the terms "nobility" but in our kingdom, we all agree that only you and Her Majesty the Queen will have the status of "Nobility", we will only follow you both with the same rank and status, namely as your followers, Your Majesty"
That's what they always said, and with his All-Seeing eyes, Taufik knew they said it from the bottom of their hearts, which even left Taufik speechless.
But that is what Taufik likes about the people of the Saranjana Kingdom, and Taufik believes that if they continue to hold on to their beliefs, Taufik is sure that this Kingdom can survive for hundreds or even thousands of years.
But that doesn't mean Taufik doesn't give "Something" to those who are meritorious, just like what he said to Briel three years ago, and ended with Briel asking Taufik to teach her Magic, but Taufik's magic is different from magic in general, and he is not sure that other people can learn it, so in return, Taufik gives something the same or even more valuable than that, and once again, Imitating an Anime, Taufik created a breathing technique, which can allow Magicians to absorb Mana directly without having to filter it first, so the mana they absorb will automatically enter their Core and become pure Mana without any contamination.
With that, it can be said that the Magician division of the Saranjana Kingdom is one of the strongest on earth, the same as Farak, Sir Axel, and the others. As a reward for their contributions, Taufik gave them the "knowledge" he had, which indirectly only made the Saranjana Kingdom develop even faster.
Also, with Gaia free and unsealed, the Mana Conditions on Earth slowly improved, however, perhaps because of that, Earth was increasingly exposed to Invasions from outside to the point that the gods were able to set foot on Earth once again.
In this way, although this era is called the era of chaos, it can also be called the golden era of magic, this is proven by the opening of several large academies that specifically teach their students about magic, and one of the first was a university built in 859 which was originally intended to teach knowledge about religion and has now changed its function to provide learning and research about magic and other general knowledge, and so in every large faction of humans there must be at least one similar University/Academy.
With magic continuing to develop and the blessings of the gods and goddesses spreading to humans, the beasts were no longer much of a threat to humans.
Unlike before in the original world history, this time, even with the presence of Magic, Cold Weapons are still quite trendy with the presence of ways to utilize Mana to become an Aura, so besides the presence of Mana users, the Magacian, there are also Aura Knights, those who use Mana to balance out the Magicians.
And the person who made it all happen and changed the course of history is now relaxing by leaning against a big tree and enjoying the sunlight.
---------
Taufik, who was relaxing under a large tree with his son, Aksara, opened his eyes when he heard the sound of footsteps approaching him.
"... Your Majesty, we already found out the whereabouts of your father, finding His Majesty's Father could be said to be quite easy because, from the characteristics and photos that His Majesty provided, he has not changed much"
Said someone from the information and communication division led by Giselle to Taufik.
"Really? So where's that old Man, right now?"
"Right now, His Majesty's father is currently in the capital of the Kingdom of Wessex, Winchester, after helping to repel the Great Heathen Army"
"Winchester?"
"Yes, Your Majesty"
"Alright~ Thank you for your Information, you can leave now"
Hearing what Taufik said, the person then bowed his head and then left Taufik.
Seeing that the person had left, Taufik looked at Aksara who was in his lap.
"Son, you know what we need to do, right?"
Taufik asked with a knowing smile towards Aksara, and with the same smile, Aksara also said to Taufik.
"... I know, papa"
"Hehe~ That's my son, let's go meet your mother"
With that, Taufik lifted Aksara up onto his shoulder and then walked towards where Gaia was.
"Papa~ Right! And the left!"
Said Aksara, who was on Taufik's shoulder, ordering where they should go; on the way, the workers who saw the behavior of the child and father could only smile.
"... Where to next, sir?"
"Move forward at full speed!!"
Aksara said while pointing to a door guarded by two guards.
"Alright! Hold on tight!"
Said Taufik and then ran towards the door; Aksara, who was on his shoulder, had to hold on tightly, but because of that, he closed Taufik's eyes while laughing happily.
Seeing Taufik running with Aksara on his back, the two guards tried to stop them, but before they could say anything, Aksara created a gust of wind from his hand, this allowed Taufik to see again, but because of the wind that Aksara created, the door had to be forced open and Taufik slid into the room.
"... And we're here!!"
Said Taufik while accompanied by Aksara's cheerful laughter.
"Papa~ Papa~ Do it again~ one more time!"
"Sure, but you know why we come here...
Said Taufik, who then looked around the room and saw several people who were also looking at him, including Gaia, who was currently facepalming, covering her embarrassment because of her husband's childish behavior by covering her face with her palm.
... Right?"
*ukhum*
Seeing this situation, Taufik faked a cough and slowly stepped back while closing the door again.
----------
- A few moments ago before the embarrassing incident.

"Your Majesty, regarding the group of people recently sent by the Red Queen, the housing allocated for them has been completed by the construction and resources division, so we can move them from their temporary residences to the housing as soon as possible without any obstacles"
Said a Dwarf who was a representative of the Saranjana Kingdom's development and resources division to Gaia.
"That's great news, finish the process as soon as possible... from the labor division, have you-"
*The sound of the door being forced open"
"... And we're here!!"
"Ahahah~ Papa~ Papa~ Do it again~ one more time!"
"Sure, but you know why we come here... Right?"
*ukhum!*
*The sound of the door closing softly*
'... Too late, stupid!'
Gaia thought as she watched Taufik slowly step back out of the room.
*sound of door opening*
A few moments later the door returned, but this time in the "normal" way.
And this time, Taufik, who was holding Aksara's hand, entered the room in a "normal" way.
*Ukhum*
Taufik faked a cough again and then looked at Gaia and said.
"Gaia, we came here to see you, But I didn't expect that you were in a meeting, so Aksara and I will take our leave, we will wait for you in our room... Please continue your meeting, excuse me"
Said Taufik, who then came out of the room for the second time in a "normal" manner.
"..."
"..."
"..."
Witnessing the incident that happened so suddenly and at lightning speed, everyone in the room could only remain silent, including Gaia who didn't know what else to say.
"
*Ukhum!*
Please forget about the unexpected incident just now, and let's continue our meeting, where was that?..."
After that, somehow, Gaia was able to continue the meeting, even though she had said to forget what had just happened, but the people in the room couldn't get the previous incident out of their heads at all.
"... Okay, that's the end of our meeting this time; you all did a good job; let's continue this performance for the progress of our kingdom, then I will take my leave... Go take care of my "two" children"
Said Gaia, who then without further ado immediately left the room while thinking about how she should scold Taufik and Aksara later.
