*Bzzt bzzt
SFX: metal sound
*Clang Clang
*Bzzt bzzt
These are all the sound that you can hear inside this room.
I look at driver sitting and hammering the metal that is place on the ground and do welding.
*Clang Clang
I push my baby stroller and walk towards him to take a look
"Don't come near at me Estio, you might get hurt" he said while still hammering
But even so, I'm already 17 years old inside of this body I'm not that stupid to get hurt by that. I move my stroller to the corner at the place where I can see what's his doing and sit there.
What is that? "Abuabu"
I can't really get used about this baby talk. I hope I'll grow up fast
"Eh? Are you bored Estio? Here I'll give you this"
He then give me a toy blue slime.
This man! He always treat me like a kid!
"You don't like it? Do you want to play peekaboo?" He cover his face and say "Peekaboo!!"
I only look at him seriously and witnessing how fool he is
"C'mon I'm just kidding. Did you master what Silver thought you?"
Right. Back then when we are still in his spaceship Silver already thought me how to use magic. Although I'm quite familiar with the RPG game I'm still having a hard time using magic
*Spark spark
I'm trying to use my dark magic skill but it only sparks for a seconds
"Here, feel my mana" he walk towards me and hand over his hand and a blue light form in both of our hand.
It feels warm that it keeps flowing through my body.
"Did you feel it?"
Yes "Abu"
"Don't forget what it feels and try to summon your magic" he said while doing a thumbs up
Is he cheering me? How rare of you
I close my eyes and try to use dark magic again, this time I try to use that warm feeling earlier.
I can feel that my hand is emitting dark smoke and it feels warm
"Yes that's it and try to release it!"
Argh now I don't know how to release it. Should I think stop?
Stop! Stop!
*Spurt
"Ack"
I open my eyes and see what's happened but I see Driver face covered in a black mud.
Ey I'm sorry
"Abubuda"
Driver get a towel in his item box and wipe his face
"Anyway it doesn't hurt, good job Estio" he said and rub my hair.
He go to his work and collect all the metal he's welding earlier. I observe him as he grab them and place it to the center.
What is he trying to do?
It seems that he's making something but I don't know what it is.
As I keep observing him my thought wondered anywhere. Like, this world are not the future earth at all. Silver and Driver already explain to me everything. Driver found me laying in the death sea having a lifeless body so he find Silver to treat me. It seems that the village where I born is true either. As I think of it my blood boil thinking about that beastmen framing our family and that ugly old man believe them easily. I want to kill them badly and make a revenge like my nanny said.
"Silver said I should make an armor that suits a toddler like you"
Me? Wearing an armor? Am I just a child right now? Isn't it gonna be too heavy?
"Look" Driver said while casting a huge spell.
A green magic circle light under the pile of metal form and suddenly all of them floating and forming into something like..... A robot?
Is that really for me?
Driver lift me and show me his creation.
"Am I awesome?" He said proudly
"This is the place you were sit" he then place me at the top of the robot where there's a baby sit with a sit belt and in front of me are a lot of button in a different color
"This blue button can summon a racket in this robot hand and this yellow button can make its arm longer. This is good if you are chasing someone. Oh and this is how you control the body and I'll give you this menu book to study it for your self ~~~~~~"
He keep blubbering something that it's hard for me to keep up. I mean, is this really necessary to me? Are we going to war or what?
"This red button is a self-destruction so don't press it"
Wai-- wait a minute! Self-destrution your ass! I can't even remember what the other functions the rest of the button because of how many it is.
"And that's how it works. Did you get it?"
No...
I don't get it at all.

"Do you think you can heal my father?" Ariel said in a concern voice.
"Let's give it a try"
I summon 10 yellow magic circle on top of his body to heal him.
You ask why 10? It's to ensure that it's really effective! We only one patient here and don't know what kind of symptoms he have here and I'm not a doctor in my past life so I really don't know. I use appraisal on him but my appraisal are not that high enough to appraise a high level being like him.
It's good to be sure so why not?
*Glow
"Wha- how many magic circle is that?" -Juho
"It's 10! It's my firstime seeing this number of magic circles" -Sasaki
"How! Impossible!" -Ariel
*Swoosh
And a seconds after I heal him a bright light explode inside of the room
"Ah I can't see"
"Is it done?"
After the light disappeared Ariel swim to his father and look for the sign of improvement
"Father! Father! Are you alright can you hear me?"
I didn't kill him right?
"Hmm.."
""Your Highness?!"" The two Knights said
King Triton rise up and sit to his bed
"Oh my, It's a miracle father!"
"Is this really true? In just a second?" Juho while rubbing his eyes
"Am I still alive?" King Triton said
""Ofcourse!""
King Triton look at the two Knights "Can you explain it to me?" While still looking confuse
Sasaki and Juho puffed their chest
"We found a gem in our kingdom" Sasaki said and come over to me "He is Silver and his companions, He is the talented Healer who heal you Your majesty"
"Thank you for saving my life" King Triton bow to me
*Silence
No one dare to make a noise inside of this room.
All of us are shock looking at the King who's bowing to me.
Wait wait wait!
Why are you bowing to me? It's as if I'm a higher rank than a king.
My face turn red
"It's okay.. please raise your head your highness" I said in stutter
"No, you are my benefactor, I should give you something in return"
So, what now? Should I say, Give me your kingdom? I mean, this is a rare opportunity shouldn't we be a bit greedy?
I look at Ursula but she only stare at the king with her deadly glare. O c'mon don't be too obvious Ursula
The king also look at Ursula and suddenly he turn stiff
"So.. what I want is your kingdo----" I said but got interrupted
"I see, Should I also thank Ursula?" The king said before I finish my word
"!"
Suddenly the twins summon five guns in their body. And in an instant without realization I cast 4 ice magic circle that pointed at the Knights, the king and also to Ariel.
How the hell did he notice? And what with that five guns? I mean, it's literally connected to their body, there's one thick metal at their back with five robot hands holding the guns. I didn't make such thing in their body but how? Now that I think of it When Driver first come to our house I always heard wierd noise every night. I can't sleep so I always play with my cellphone together with my RP friends on Facebook but I didn't know they make such thing without my permission! But, isn't it a good thing considering our situation now?
The Knights also raise their sword protecting the king and the princess
They look bewildered on what is happening right now
"Hey Mr. Silver, we should talk this out" Sasaki said while holding his sword
"Lower your sword this instant!" King Triton shout
"But your highness!"
The Knights said but King Triton glare to them and lower their sword
"I'm deeply apologize for what my Knights done"
And once again King Triton bow.
"PFFTT... AHAHAHAHA" Ursula laugh and transform to her final self
"!" The Knights are on guard again
"Now, this is a good sight"
"I'm greatly appreciated Ursula for bringing your subordinates here"
"Anyway you're health is good right?"
"Yes, it's thanks to Silver" he said and look at me.
Uhm? Excuse me? What's happening here?
All of us who's listening to their convo almost drop our mouth. Like, hey! Isn't both of you in a bad term?
"Since you are okay, we should go now. Silver" she said and look at me calling my name. This is her sign calling my name to teleport us in our house.
"Wait!" The king said
"What now?" Ursula complaint
"I'm sorry"
(●__●)!
"I know that I didn't believe in you at first but now I witness it myself"
"..."
"Someone are interfering in our world" The king said in a serious face
"Bring the Crystal here"
Ariel get the crystal that is locked to the king's drawer
"!"
What we see is the same crystal that the beastmen are using to devour energy in this world
"Your highness that's!--" Sasaki said in a suprise
"Yes, this is the stone that makes part of our kingdom die"
Sasaki: "!"
Juho: "!"
"A few days ago one of my daughter Attina reports that the coral leaf in the south turn grey. I give orders to my Knights to find out what it is and they found this Crystal sucking the life of living being there."
There's no doubt this is really the crystal that the beastmen use.
So, what now?
"What do you want then?" Ursula said while crossing her arms.
"I want you to help me dispose of them"
".."

So earlier, after a lot of turn of events the two side finally make a truce to save this planet.
Remembering the two of them making a serious funny faces make me doubt, like, is it really okay for us to listen them? I mean, they both possess high rank position. A king and the famous sea witch Ursula it feels like our existence turn into a minion all of a sudden.
But anyway they finally both collided. Both sides want to destroy the beastmen who always plot something funny behind our back, so, what's the fuss? let them use each other as they see fit.
The first step is to destroy their gateway but it seems that it is not that too easy. I and Ursula try to break it in the first day when I finally turned into a mermaid but all of our efforts gone waste. We can't even leave a single scratch on that stone where a huge magic circle sculpture
Attached.
The reason is? We still don't know. It's a mystery I'll tell you!
"The plan is you deploy Silver to find the other gate and teleport him to that world and make a havoc to destroy them?" The King say to clarify things
"Yes gotta problem?" Ursula said while still disrespecting the king.
We are here right now in the king office, the members are consist of Me, Sasaki, Ursula and ofcourse the king himself while the others are still waiting outside.
"Isn't it too risky? I should accompany Silver!" Sasaki said
"No, you are too weak. Did you see how many Magic circle Silver can summon?"
"But still.." Sasaki making a concern face while looking at me.
Am I that unreliable? Just trust this mission to me 'kay?
"He's not traveling alone, Driver will also come with him"
"Driver?" The king said
"He's Virgo to be exact"
"WHAT!?" Sasaki said in a suprise while King Triton widen his eyes
"I can't believe my opponent has such strong companions"
"That's why you better behave king Triton"
"It's seems that I don't have a choice"
Apparently mermaid are quite familiar with celestial god. But they only worship Aquarius thought.
"I guess I should share this information to you. She might be the one who will guide you to find the other portal"
"Spill it" Ursula said.
C'mon Ursula you should be atleast friendly
So, to sum it up. Since I'm just a listener here King Triton said that there's a rumour about the previous demon lord in that world who is betrayed by her lover to get the throne himself. He start a rebellion and he gather forces including the hero the strongest force in humanity. Both of them collide to defeat the demon lord but the demon lord are too strong to be defeated thus they seal her using the queen taratect spider monster web. This spider is strong and large enough that you can compare it to a mountain and apparently this monster got tame by the demon lord lover. Thus the demon lord can't do anything to let her self seal.
"So, what's the connect of that lovers quarrel on finding the gate?" Ursula said
"They say it's too dangerous to seal her inside of their world because of how strong she is. Rumoured say that she is sealed somewhere north in this world"
"What you want to tell is Silver should find this demon lord to find the gate easily?"
"It's just an old rumour we don't know where exactly the gate is. But you might find something along the way"
It's true, we don't really know where the gate is and if this girl turn out to be true we might find a lead to where the gate is. And it's not that too troublesome anyway. We should go north first for our first destination and let's the fate run as it is.
"I'll hope your journey will be successful" King Triton said while shaking my hand.
"En" I said in response
We are now going back to our house to prepare ourselves before we depart. We bow to King Triton before we leave. I forced Ursula to bow though he's still glaring to the king like he's ready to kill but king Triton didn't mind and make an awkward face as they say farewell to each other.
"Tomorrow will be the last then" Ursula said while holding my hand
"I will miss you" I said while looking at her
"Me too!" Ursula eyes turn teary and hug me tight
"Flotsam and Jetsam will miss you too!" The twin tackle us and hug me at the back
I hope tomorrow will be a safe trip
