Chapter 01 - Elemental City


Ms....tik......tik kringg....kring...........kringg........!!!!


The alarm sound of the alarm clock that broke the silence in the room, the owner of the room was awakened from his sleep. But he was reluctant to move from his bed to turn off the alarm clock that he had set himself at half 7 am as usual, somehow the comfort of his mattress made his body heavy. It was as if the gravitational force in that place was greater than anywhere else.


.crings...kring...kring....kring...kring.......kring......kring.......!!!


He began to be disturbed by the annoying sound, then he covered his head with a pillow so that the disturbing sound was reduced, why the alarm clock could not understand? Her thought.


.crings...kring...kring....kring...kring.......kring......kring.......!!!


"Ahhh........noisy................!!!" his yell.


When the clock stopped ringing, suddenly the mechanism in the clock did not work because the inside of the clock just froze.


after the atmosphere was quiet again he continued his sleep. But, not yet 5 minutes he slept a sound that he was very familiar woke him up.


"Young Master? Young Master? Wake up sir, if you don't wake up you'll be late for school. You recall? Today is the first day of the new semester" the voice said as he knocked on the door of his room.


He immediately woke up and immediately woke up from his bed, he saw the clock of a frozen alarm. It was seen that the clock was 6:40, right, the day was the first day of school, he thought.


"Young Master? Are you awake?" ask the voice again.


"Yeah.yes I'm awake" he replied hoarsely.


"Good then, breakfast is soon ready" said a voice from outside his bedroom door.


Then the owner stood up from his bed with all his might, as he managed to stand up from his bed.


Finally I could escape from the place, he said in his heart, then he stepped in front of the mirror across from his bedroom. And look at the reflection of his shadow on the mirror.


His name is Arya, only Aryan without a clan and the slightest addition. Until sometimes he wants to add the word Just in front of his name which means only. Only Arya thought.


In front of the mirror Arya looked at teenage boys in general. He wore white pajamas and stared foolishly at the mirror, but what was interesting about the boy was his hair that was as white as snow and his eyes that were as blue as sapphire.


After looking at himself in the mirror and feeling disgusted to himself because of his messy appearance. He took a towel and went straight to the bathroom to clean his body. But before that he needs to get rid of the protein in his body, this is longer than the bath he thought while sitting waiting for the protein to come out. Do you understand how to throw away protein? If you have a good digestive system you will understand, That's right! He is having a CHAPTER.


After finishing the bath he immediately put on his uniform, his school vest that was never touched during the holiday still feels the same way he thought. Then he came out of his room and headed to the dining room while carrying his school bag. At the dinner table, breakfast was available as usual, he immediately sat down and ate the breakfast without making a sound while thinking where the people who make breakfast.


"Young Master.


There stood a middle-aged man dressed in the servant clothes he used to wear, his long, gray hair unraveling on his face. He is Aryan's personal servant, his name is Mr. Tora. She is a former servant of the President, but now a personal servant of Arya.


"What's up, sir?" ask Arya to him.


"Young Master please stop doing this" Mr. Tora said as he pointed to the frozen alarm clock he was holding.


"This is the third time this week, Young Master, do I have to buy you every two hours?" ask again while breathing.


"Hahahaha I'm sorry it's just that the gravity on my bed feels bigger than anywhere else" Arya said, scratching her head.


"Hah....you are just looking for an excuse, but you are just lazy to move when you just wake up, right?" said Mr. Tora.


"Hahahaha it's possible" Arya replied with a laugh.


"Well I'll tidy up your room, so leave without having to look for me. Later you can be late on this first day" said Mr. Tora as he walked towards the hallway that leads to Arya's room.


"Well...." said Arya while still chewing her sarapanya.


"Ohhh yes, Young Master? I forgot to tell you that you want to meet you" Mr. Tora said as he poked his head out from the entrance of the dining room.


"Mr President?" arya asked turned away from her meal for a while.


"True, Master asked you to come to the Main House after you came from school" replied Mr. Tora.


"Okay, aren't you coming with me?" ask Arya again.


"I'm sorry Young Master, I can't come because there's still a lot of work piling up"


"Then can you return some of the books I borrowed in the library yesterday?"


"Sure Young Master"


"Alright, I'm leaving first sir" Arya said as she stood up from her seat.


"Be careful in the path of Young Master" said Mr. Tora.


After coming out of the gate of his house, Arya walked towards the main road that was crowded with people who had their own interests. He walked to the train station as he used to do when he left for school, after buying a train ticket and jostling he finally managed to get into the train and find his favorite seat.


"A lot of times, the hours to go to work are like this, right?" arya said speaking to herself.


Finally he managed to find his usual seat, why did he like to sit in that place? The reason is simple, he can see the view of the city through the place. The train started to leave. Arya saw it, the densely populated cityscape.


Elemental City or better known as Elemental City, is usually also shortened to EC. According to Arya this name is not suitable for this place, why? The word city means city, right? But this place is too big to be given such a name. Elemental City was the last territory possessed by the Human race, he did not know for sure how vast it was. But, what he knew definitely needed a very large place to accommodate all of humanity from various countries in this world.


Then he looked up at the sky, in the sky was faintly seen a layer that protected Elemental City. It's like a thin, transparent membrane, but it's actually very useful for protecting this city. The layer is made by the Scientists from all countries in the world with the help of the Witch who is pro to Humans, so that Humans can take refuge in this city. Arya did not know for sure what the function of the Protective Dome was, that was the word of everyone who called it. But from what he read in one of the books in the library that the layer protects the Elemental City so that it cannot be detected by other races and from what he read also he said can protect the city from other racial attacks.


He did not know what was outside the Protective Dome, since he was born he was already in Elemental City. Arya wanted to see other races like Elves, let alone Demi-Humans. He was eager to see the women with the ears and tail of the cat, just thinking about it could make him smile himself like a madman. But he didn't really want to meet the Demon race, he hated ghosts.


Elemental City is divided into 3 Districts. Gold, Silver, and Bronze. The three Districts are separated by walls, these Districts have social class differences that are very clearly visible, this is what Arya hates. The Bronze District was in the outermost region of Elemental City, meaning they were the region closest to the Protective Dome. And it would automatically be the first one to be attacked if the Protective Dome disappeared.


The majority of the population in the Bronze District work as farmers and ranchers as in the game Harvest Moo.......Mmmm that was not the case, this was not without cause because the area of the Bronze District was mostly large agricultural lands and forests. So it is suitable for such a profession.


But the facilities in the Bronze District were very limited, there was not even a Hospital or School, so the residents of the Bronze District had to seek treatment and send their children to the Perak District. This is what Arya thinks the treatment of the central government is unfair, they think the food they eat every day comes from where? If the residents of the Bronze District did not want to sell their crops to the other two Districts, surely we would all starve to death right? That's what Arya thought.


The next district is Silver District, this district is occupied by people with middle to upper economic ability, here is the place with the most complete facilities in Elemental City and also the District with the most densely populated, the district, because this is where office workers work to make a living for their families, this is where there are offices that make the economy and life of Elemental City still running.


In this District is also where Arya lives, in fact he wants to live in the Bronze District like other people who want to find clean air there, he said, already many people from the Gold and Silver District were tired of the atmosphere of the city moving there. But if he moved to the Bronze District then he would be in trouble to go to the City Library, so he pared his intentions.


The last one is the most luxurious District, the Golden District. Here are the residences of people who have money Arya thought, the people who live in this District are people who have an important influence for Elemental City. The country leaders who contributed to Elemental City, the Nobles, the rich people, and the famous actors and actresses in Elemental City.


This place is filled with facilities that are very luxurious, shopping centers, schools of the rich, the best hospitals, expensive restaurants that can make people naked because of the ease of eating, which is very expensive, why not challenge the chef for Shokugeki? The point is places that can waste your money in vain, Arya thought. Even worse, you know what? They don't have a library.


Arya felt the speed of the train slowing down which signaled that he had reached his destination, he stood up from his seat. But suddenly he felt a sharp gaze from someone behind his back, at once he turned around, but because the crowded train of passengers he saw was just a red flash, what was that? Ahh, forget it.


He got out of the train jostling and finally managed to escape the crowd when he got out of the train station, fortunately the road to the school is not as crowded as the city center. And finally he reached the Gate of his school, next to the high gate (so that no one tried to climb the fence if they were late) there was a license plate of his school that read High School 1 Silver. Somehow seeing the name of the school he felt that this school was a cheap school, but it could be said that this school was one of the best schools in the Silver District even Elemental City.


He was not too late, he was until 7 o'clock exactly. 10 minutes before the first bell rang, he immediately walked past the gate, ignoring the people who tried to greet him and only gave a small smile to them. He went straight to class, and as he expected some of the children were already in the classroom, I should have woken up earlier he thought with a sigh, he walked into the classroom and headed straight to his seat after saying good morning to everyone. He felt their gaze all like piercing his body, hehh view as usual he thought.


How not to be tried? A boy with white messy hair? Less strange what else is that? Isn't he very suitable to be a circus spectacle?, he has tried several times to cut his hair and paint it as well, but always does not produce results, surely the next day his hair back to normal. It's like a curse. Then he heard the most annoying greeting that came from a person who sucks anyway.


"Hey Uban-san" said the voice greeting in a carefree tone


"I told you not to call me that fucking Wibu, and don't use the san suffix, it's disgusting" Arya replied.


There stood a boy with reddish-colored hair, and a sharp nose, he was slightly taller than Arya. Maybe around 165, he was the best friend and most annoying person Arya ever knew, he was also the one who often gave anime recommendations to Arya that made her love anime. Ryan Gerrow's.


"Oh come on, don't call me that. You like watching anime too, right? Means you and I are the same" Ryan said.


"And I've removed, my hair is white instead of gray, gray it's duller than white like snow. Don't equate me with you basic Wibu, I'm just an Anime Lovers not Wibu like you." said Arya.


"Obviously different, I don't suck like you"


"That's just your opinion? Shiro-san"


"Don't call me that either, it sounds like you're talking to Shin-chan's dog you know?"


Their debate finally stops when their teacher enters the room, and Ryan sits back in his seat, and Arya does what she always does at school, sleeping. In his dream he met a woman without a face who grasped the fire in his eyes, then threw it to Arya.


Aryans........Aryan.........Aryaa.


At that instant Arya instantly woke up, and her classmates and teachers looked at her with sharp gazes.


"Stop sleeping and delirious in Arya's class" said her teacher's mother, Ms. Rust


Arya's face flushed with embarrassment. Did I find out, huh? The dream just felt so real.


The one who woke him up just now turned out to be Ryan, Ryan gestured with a hand, are you okay? ryan asked in sign language, Arya gave a nod to him, he looked anxious so Arya should calm him down first.


"Arya answer the next question" Rust's mother said.


"Test ability 1 page 72 number 39, What is the negative side of the Economic System of Mercantilism?" arya answered quickly.


"Hehh how are you......."


"Society and other factors of production tend to be exploited, for example in this Elemental City"


"Why can you? Aren't you........"


"Sleep? Oh come on, mom, it's like I don't know me, I'm just asleep, I'm not listening"


Rust's mother looks very surprised at the answer Arya gives, but in order not to be embarrassed in front of her students she tries to be calm, but she still tries to provoke Arya with her words.


"If you're that good as Arya, you should get perfect grades in all subjects, right? But why your math always gets.


"Mom knows I don't like those deathly lessons, right? So just sorry if my grades are like that" Arya replied expressionlessly.


"But it should........"


"Here you go, Mom, do you think I'm a robot? I'm just a regular human like mom, there are things I like and I don't like. Can you answer questions outside of the subjects you teach? Of course not, so don't blame us students if we have lessons we don't master" Arya replied with a smile.


Hearing those words, Rust's mother went up in black, she was very upset to see Arya's behavior, she was indeed one of the brightest children, but her nature and appearance were always upsetting her, the nerve vein is visible on Mother Rust's forehead.


"Mother if you continue to put that expression, the wrinkles on your face will increase" Arya said while holding back a laugh.


Then Mother Rust realized the expression she made, she saw her other students were also holding back laughter, her face was flushed with embarrassment, then she pointed at Arya. As if to say something, but undo his intention, and leave the classroom with his bag. As the classroom door closed, applause and cheers greeted the teacher's departure.


"Did you see his face? You did it again my friend" Ryan told Arya.


"Aryan's good job"


"We always get a lot of empty hours when Arya is arguing with the teacher, right?"


"Hahahaha I couldn't bear to see her expression just now, really"


But Arya did not pay attention to the words of her classmates, she just wanted to go back to sleep. Then he leaned on his chair while holding his head.


"What's a math hero?" ask Ryan.


"Stop making weird Wibu calls, I'm sleepy" Arya replied.


"Are you using your powers again?"


"It's just a little bit"


"For what?"


"Turn off the alarm clock"


Ryan laughed, isn't there anything else you can do? I don't know since when and where Ryan knew I had the power, he just seemed to know.


"Do you want to go watch after school?'


"Mmm..I don't think I can, I have to meet Mr. President"


"Ohh means you're going to the Golden District huh?"


"so"


When the bell rang that afternoon, Arya immediately stood up while carrying her bag to go to the Golden District, she waved to the people who greeted her. He walked towards the station that was heading for the Golden District, bought a ticket and got into the train without any significant obstacles, as it was still office hours. Not too much when going to school.


He stopped at the Station which was right next to the Guardrail Wall, the golden-colored Guardrail Wall which was somehow high? Arya doesn't care, didn't she say that she hates counting. Arya walked towards the gatekeeper Post, where there stood a gatekeeper in a gold uniform, he was a man with a tapered face like a horse, his name was John, he was a man, he was the gatekeeper that Arya used to pass through if she wanted to enter the Golden District.


"Yo what's up? See who's coming? Aryans? Give me a high five bro" said John cheerfully as always.


"Yo what's up John" Arya replied with a flat face while patting John's hand.


"So what's the point of you coming to the Golden District, man?"


"I have to see the President"


"Ohhhh interesting so what's up? Are you getting engaged?"


"I'm still John High School's son" Arya replied with a sigh.


"What harm? It's okay, right?"


"As for you, I'll go first"


"Well, say my regards to your sweet sister!!!" shouted John.


"Keep dreaming buddy" whispered Arya.


Arya walked through several shopping centers and turned towards the existing residential-residential Golden District, one word for this place, very glamorous, too luxurious and too wasteful of money thought Arya. He finally saw it at the end of the estate, a large house with a large courtyard. Upon entering the gate, several maids were already waiting to greet him.


"Welcome to the Young Master's Main House" the servants said simultaneously


Arya just waved her hand to let her hear their words and let them go, she went inside the house, went upstairs and looked for the room at the end of the hallway, when he met, he knocked on the door.


Tok.


"Who?" the voice that Arya was very familiar with said from within.


"It's me, Mr. President" Arya replied.


"Ohh please come in, I've been waiting for you" said the voice.


Then Arya opened the door of the room, it was the same workspace and did not change at all in Arya's memory, not the slightest thought Arya. Behind the table sat a middle-aged man with gray hair, he was wearing the usual work coat he was wearing and he was also wearing a black skullcap on his head. He smiled at Arya. The man's name is Hartoso. He is the adoptive father and guardian of Arya. And, President of the Republic of Indonesia.
