The Thousand Year Dynasty
15. Primaval

"So what am I supposed to do, Nat?" Aksa looked confused at night when he and Nata were talking in their tent.

"La, instead of you just saying yes or no it's easy" Nata answered while writing something in the book on the collision of boxes that have been converted into tables.

"What's the easy part? This concerns the healing of Rafa's hand and my life later" Aksa said with an exaggerated panicked face.

"Yes, did you say yes, Alay?" Nata looks disturbed.

"Stay I'm not ready for inner birth, Nat. Girlfriend never had" Aksa said again.

"Thankful dong. Finally, too. Directly married again" Nata looks original answer.

"You don't want to talk. I'm serious about this" Aksa doesn't seem to accept.

"I'm a two-rius" this time Nata stopped his writing activities. His face was serious.

"If we can return to Earth again, how?" Aksa said again while bringing the seat closer to Nata.

"Yes whatever. You want to bring it to earth, or you want to stay here" Nata replied nonchalantly.

"You've been saying a lot lately, huh? Yes, I just want twenty already a widower?"

"Yes then bring it to earth" Nata said as he resumed his writing activities.

"How do you tell people about him? How can't be old anymore"

"Maybe on earth there is no Soul flow. So it could be there she can't magic. So it can be old"

"Yes, without magic, he's not young. What if she became a five-hundred-year-old granny? Can die dong immediately" Aksa closed his chatter with a sad face.

"Oh, really. It might happen" Nata quit his writing activities again, and began to look like thinking.

"Then how?" Aksa again said half a whine asking for help from his best friend.

"Just tell me you can't marry her because you're not from this world. You can leave at any time" Nata finally gave his input.

"Oh, that's right" Aksa seemed to agree with Nata's input. "That means tomorrow we'll see him, Nat" he added later.

"Why am I even coming? Males really become a mosquito repellent" said Nata refused.

"You're the one who suggested this idea. In addition to telling this, it would be more polite if we both would. It's not just me who's not from this world"

"Say you're looking for a friend. Just a reason" said Nata who sounded reluctant.

-

"I disagree, Mr. Aksa. I don't need two hands. I can still survive with this one arm" Rafa said as he was in the tent to meet Aksa, moments after Nata went to meet some priests in the city.

"I'll find a way, Raf. Don't worry" Aksa replied calmly.

"No, Mr. Aksa. You don't have to worry. It's been. You don't have to do anything to try to heal my hand" Rafa tried to explain his wish that Aksa hadn't heard from yesterday.

"But it's in plain sight. Say, if it's stopped? Anyway you calm down. I will definitely find a way" Aksa also tried to explain the intent of her actions.

"Stop doing things I don't want to do, Mr Aksa! I don't need your help or mercy" Rafa said in a high tone. The girl could no longer hold back her emotions.

Aksa, who was shocked, could only remain silent as Rafa walked away from the tent.

-

"Nat, is it really wrong that I did all this?" Aksa asked in an excited tone, as they had just finished dinner and had already returned to their tent.

"What do you mean? Married married?" Nata asked from across the tent on his wooden bed.

"Rafa feels that what I've been doing all this time is because I feel sorry for him. Because I was making amends" Aksa replied from the top of her hammock on the other side of the tent.

"Do you think it's like that?" instead of answering, Nata added a question.

"I just want to help him as a co-worker, as well as my assistant who always helps me. Is this my effort too much?" Aksa was seen swinging himself slowly on his hanging bed.

"Do you feel excessive?" Nata returned with a question.

"Because the opportunity to be able to heal Rafa's hand is in sight, just convince Miss Luque. Honey, would it just be taken off?" Aksa answered. "And I don't want to sacrifice the things that I feel are important to me"

"Maybe for Rafa, what you did for him was more than he should have" This time Nata was ready to sleep. "Why are you asking something like this, anyway? Though I'm sure you won't change your original decision either" he added, which has begun to break up.

"And I'm a teenager in general, Nat. Who also needs to vent upset through, so" Aksa replied.

"You're wasting your time" Nata moved his sleeping position back to Aksa.

"Eh, but tomorrow we'll go to Miss Luque's place, you know"

"Yes, yeah. Already asleep" Nata flicked his hand up.

-

The next day, Aksa and Nata come to meet Luque in a round room with a marble seat before.

"Oh, you two came? Do you want to make excuses again, Mr Aksa?" Luque asked as he saw Aksa and Nata entering the room.

"Yes, more or less so, Miss Luque. Because I basically want to heal Rafa's hand" Aksa replied with a silly smile.

"So you agreed to be my husband?" Ask Luque without further ado. "Just relax, you're not a slave, and you're not shackled into doing anything at your will. You've accompanied me for the rest of your life" he continued. Which makes kudu Nata's feathers goosebumps to hear it.

"Yes, that's the case" Aksa began to say. "We came here to tell you who we really are" he continued.

"Actually, we are not from this world. We come from another world" Aksa said it straight away without further ado.

Luque was only speechless hearing Aksa's words. He doesn't look surprised. "I already know" he said later. Which even makes Aksa and Nata replace surprised.

"You already know? What else has told you?" Nata asked this time.

Luque shut up for a second. You choose whether to answer or not. "Three hundred years ago, the Oracle came to me and said that someone from another world would come to see me" he said after a long silence.

"really? The Oracle can see the future, play spoilers anyway" Aksa raved.

"What did the Oracle say about us?" This time Nata asked. It was as if he had just found something he had been looking for a long time.

"He didn't say anything about you guys" Luque replied after the same as before, he always took a long time to think before speaking. It was as if he was worried about telling what he knew, or not.

"Even all this time I thought there would only be one person and not two" the girl added later. "That's why I was surprised when Miss Lilian pointed at two people" he added.

"Then if you already know about it, why do you still ask me to be your husband? Though you know, there is a possibility that we can return to our world at any time" Aksa asked for an explanation, when then he was surprised by his own words.

"Don't the Oracle tell you something?" Aksa guessed with a face that turned serious. "Would we never be able to return to our world? Or do we die young in this world?" The fall continues.

"Ulus. Shut up, Aks. The talk is prayer" said Nata quickly,

"The rich believe in you, Nat. If you say" Aksa replied later.

"Turn back to our previous conversation. So you want it or not, so my husband?" Luque suddenly said returning the initial topic to avoid answering Aksa's previous questions.

Aksa was again limp when she heard the question from Luque. "We don't even know each other. I have many shortcomings and have strange behavior" he said later.

"Can't disagree with it" said Nata who was immediately glimpsed cynically by Aksa.

"How about this, you heal Rafa's arm. Then we get to know each other in a while. If after that you still want to marry me, then we will marry. How's it?" Aksa tried to make another offer.

"No way" Luque replied quickly.

"Why are you answering that? We are negotiating. At least bargain first" Aksa looks irritated to face Luque's stubbornness.

"If you don't want to marry me, you just say no. And stop hoping to heal your friend's arm" Luque said calmly.

Aksa held her head while shaking slowly. "You're so stubborn" he said later.

-

"You want me to give you a little Hints about this, Aks?" Nata said as the two of them walked away from the round room earlier.

"What?" Ask Aksa who looks hopeful.

"Think of your reasons why you're helping Rafa. And think of Miss Luque's reason why she would help in return" Nata answered quickly.

"Well, is that it?" Aksa looks a little unaccepting.

"hey are. His name is Hints" too"

"Come on, don't need to wear all Hints. Don't you want to help Rafa get his arm back, Nat?"

"The way we help people is different, Aks. I'm not helping you doesn't mean I don't want to see Rafa being able to use both hands back" Nata replied casually.

"You must have intentionally done this to me" Aksa looked at Nata with a vexed face.

-

The next day, Aksa, who has not given up, returns to see Luque again.

"All right, Miss Luque. This has been my most brilliant idea so far. Much higher than the probability equation of the wave function in quantum mechanics" Aksa said it was unclear when he had met Luque.

"I don't understand what you're saying" Luque said honestly.

"So like this. After thinking about it for an entire night, and aided by Nata a little, I found a win-win solution to this problem" Aksa tried to explain.

Luque said nothing. The girl just silently awaits the continuation of the explanation that Aksa will convey.

"Tomorrow we will return to the city of Central. So how about in the next few days, you come with us. We'll get to know each other. We'll be friends" Aksa began to explain her offer. "And take it easy, you don't need to heal Rafa's hand" he added later.

"See what you're planning, Tian Aksa?" Luque asked with eyes filled with suspicion.

"No. I'm not making any tricks or tricks. I still want you to heal Rafa's hand. But later after you get to know and befriend us all. How's it?" Aksa then tried to convince Luque.

Luque seemed silent for a moment. "alright. But on condition" he said later.

"What?"

"I have to stay close to you. If you go somewhere without asking me. I'll go straight back to this town" Luque said later.

"Why is it your turn to make an offer, you have to ask for such an unreasonable thing, anyway?" Aksa looks starting to cringe.

"So how? You agree?"

"What if you're in the same area. So you don't have to follow me when I'm working or doing things that aren't related to you. How's it?" Aksa gave his last offer.

Luque again seemed to think, before then saying, "alright. Then I'll get ready first, and tell the clergy that I'm leaving town"
