Chapter 104 - A Genius

nAfter listening to Alexander, Dror pondered in his mind
" Now that I think about it Earnest had a section on Dharma in the recording, I didn't deem it important and skipped it… maybe I should listen to it carefully later..
"
nDror further explained his view on how the current rebels were working in a symbiotic manner with the Alliance government than against it to the rest.
nLevi and Chaow was shocked by dror's view of the current situation. Even Rutna, who was a child, understood a little and couldn't close her mouth out of shock for a while.
nOnly Alexander was calm, but he was also utterly surprised by the fact that this person who was called a barbarian could clearly analyze so many things like an intellectual.
nDror continued
" so in the end what I am trying to accomplish is a revolution not for any king but for the common people and myself… A revolution of the people by the people for the people..
"
nLevi slowly muttered
" A revolution of the people by the people for the people..
"
nThe same was repeated by the rest
" ….. of the people by the people for the people..
"
nAlexander finally spoke with a laugh
"Hahaha... I have never seen someone as daring as you. What you spoke just now can be considered as a mutiny and lead to your execution…. But I like it. I am interested in joining your company, but I should say I cannot cultivate so fighting is difficult for me..
"
nDror replied with a smile
" what I want is your brain not your brawn's. The company that I want to form is not just about strength but much more than that…
"
nThe group didn't stay much long in the restaurant, but left as the celebratory mood was overcome by a serious mode after Dror gave his conjectures regarding the current situation of the rebel base.
nEach of them were pondering about it as they walked to their home.
nEven Rutna was not an exception.
nRutna held her brother's hand tightly and muttered
" big brother… did our father give his life for a lost cause…
"
nChaow reprimanded her
" Don't speak nonsense, what sir Dror said doesn't mean that… what he meant is that we are actually in the dark, but the cause we are fighting for is not wrong..
"
nRutna spoke again in a timid manner
" But sir Dror also said that the alliance army is almost unbeatable for the current rebel army. Then why did they send father to fight such a strong enemy knowing they were so powerful..
"
nChaow could only clench his other hand and replay
" he didn't do it just because of an order from the army, he did it for you and me. He did it so that we could enjoy the freedom that he couldn't one day… He might not have realized the truth of the situation, but he gave his life for what he believed….
nI have decided to follow sir Dror and become stronger, to be able to bring a real change…
"
nRutna also spoke in a determined way
" I will also grow strong… for the people for ourselves…
"
nDror was happy that he could gather some comrades to tackle the future.
nInstead of going into meditation he took out some herbs to practice alchemy.
nHe was determined to create a pill this time.
nAn expert alchemist would use a cauldron and fire formed from his own energy to create pills.
nBut novice alchemists who had only started practicing alchemy, would use different kinds of precision apparatus to regulate the heat and to measure the amount of herbs.
nThe pill that he was trying to create was a low grade energy pill, but he has not succeeded yet.
nHe separated the herbs and extracted the essence as per the instructions. Then he started heating the main apparatus at a certain temperature and added the herbs one by one.
nBut as he added the eighth ingredient the colour of the mixture turned yellow, showing that the pill had failed.
nHe was troubled by the fact that even after experiencing the trance, he was not able to make even one pill.
nHe had observed the complete process with his spiritual sense but couldn't figure out the exact reason.
nThat is when someone poked his hand, he saw that it was the shackles of Maya.
nUsually this guy would sleep inside the stone vat full of earth elemental crystal or playing games in the sky watch that Dror has recently purchased for it .
nAs usual it was playing games like a little kid with his or her mothers android phone, Until it felt the dejected emotion of Dror.
nIt wound around Dror's hand and encouraged him to practice more.
nSeeing that there was someone to cheer him up he started the concoction again.
nThis time as he was going to add the third ingredient, Maya tightened his hand to stop him.
nHe unknowingly paused for two three seconds but seeing that the time to add the ingredient was running out he hastily put it in .
nTo his surprise he found that this time after adding the eighth ingredient the color of the concoction remained blue.
nHe was ecstatic, but the ecstasy didn't last long.
nWith the addition of the tenth ingredient the color turned yellow again.
nHe knew that it was Maya's guidance that allowed him to improve a little, then his eyes started shining brightly
n
" What if this little guy has the talent to become an alchemist?
nHe has a great attachment to the Earth and different kinds of herbs, he likes to sleep in between them all the time…. Fuck maybe I hit the jackpot again...lets try it again…
"
nHe cleared the apparatus and started the concoction again, this time his focus was divided between Maya and concoction.
nHe could feel that Maya would sense it each time when the concoction was going wrong.
nHe needed to adjust different things according to Maya's premonition .
nHe failed the next two three times also, but he could see that Maya's grasp on the subject was improving rapidly.
nSoon it started giving instruction to Dror, and so the first pill was born after four more tries.
nThe pill was green in color but a little hazy showing its lowest quality.
nBut Dror was jumping around the room in celebration, Maya was also happy that it was able to help its master.
nDror couldn't hold himself from hugging and kissing the little guy, Maya had to struggle itself out of this weird master's hand.
nDror was not someone who would stop when he saw a little success. He went into a mad frenzy with the aid of Maya.
nBut he soon figured out that even with the aid of Maya his success rate was only close to 20 %.
nThis was because each batch of ingredient differed in its own way and required special attention when preparing.
nFor a genius alchemist they would be able to predict it automatically like a sixth sense and adjust the concoction accordingly, just like Maya.
nDror was staring at Maya with glowing eyes and dollar signs in both his eyes.
nPoor Maya could feel the bad premonition but could not escape the greedy eyes of Dror.
nSoon the innocent Maya would know how some children would be sent to school by Psychopaths parents and tortured day and night to study and take the first place in the class.
nDror spoke in a kind and loving manner
" little Maya what do you think about studies, Do you know that little kids of your age has to go to school, A monstrous place where big demons like teachers will give you something terrible like home work and then there are senior students who are like little demons they will bully you and take away all your good stuff..
"
nLittle innocent Maya started trembling a little, imagining all kinds of horror situations similar to what she had watched in movies through the sky watch.
nThen finally Little Maya sent a spiritual message
" n..o no scho..ol..
"
nMaya had only started learning to speak so it stuttered here and there while talking.
nThe brightness in Dror's eyes intensified
" of course how can I let my loving little Maya go to such a dangerous place, that is why I have thought of homeschooling you.
nBut if you don't study properly what is taught, I will have no other choice but to send you to the SCHOOL…
"
nLittle Maya was continuously nodding its head to everything, believing all kind of bull** that Dror came up with.
n…...
nRewinding time a little back, in a different area of the rebel base.
nAlexander reached his home and it was already dark around his small house.
nAs he opened the door a red knife with a glowing mark appeared in his hand, which he threw to the left dark corner of the opened room.
nAs the knife left his arm, the knife started glowing as a whole and the speed increased at least ten times along with its destructive power.
nBut as the knife reached the dark corner it was caught in between two fingers.
nAlexander was not ideal as two more knives appeared on both his hands, emitting different colors.
n
