Maya looks at a city that is not foreign to her. Blood red bricks became the main building material there, the most crowded and busiest city among the major cities in the archipelago.

The city has absolutely no change with the one in Maya's memory after three months of abandonment.

Inside the building a lot of people go in and out and on every corner of the street crowded people move.

"Trowu," murmured Maya standing on a hill her father had made.

From the artificial hill called Idak, all corners of the capital Bhumi Maja can be seen with the naked eye.

This is a good reconnaissance place as well as dangerous because many traps are installed.

But of course this is not a big thing for the disciples of the Great Hermit who was also the previous Empress.

The trap points are very precise Udelia guessed.

Maya, Udelia, and the troupe had been on a long journey for an entire month.

They only used their feet and boats to get to this faraway place.

Maya's eye bags grow because she does not want to lose the moment even a blink of an eye with her mother.

Maya glances at her mother who is trying hard to cover up tired on her face but the pale lips on that face often evaporate and cannot fool Maya that Udelia is also very tired.

"We're going to leave. Be careful" said Lowo jumping out of the hill trap.

Kelimutu group will wait in Napa hill as planned.

Udelia and Maya continue their journey and mingle with the hustle and bustle at the center of Bhumi Maja.

Udelia and Maya were shopping for some things cheerfully. They spent all the money they had on hand.

Maya is a little clueless but she knows her mother is amazing at picking things.

"Things as good as this are only obtained with a few silvers!" amazement Maya. Usually a bag of gold is not enough to make one.

Udelia picked up the smartphone that had been powerbanked. His thumb pressed the power button and the phone that was left off was lit up normally.

Udelia scrolled through the screen and selected the gray lens icon. Then the screen is filled with an image capture application, a camera.

"My daughter, look here!" Udelia gently pulls Maya and directs the front camera to capture an image of the two of them.

The two people who could not pose were, his expression equally stiff.

Udelia paid no heed to their expressions, she was already very happy to see hundreds of pictures of the two of them with various backgrounds.

"Mother, what is it? Never before have you seen your mother take it out," asked Maya curiously.

Since then Maya was very curious but her mother continued to take her to every corner of the capital and invited her to glare at the thin box object so Maya had not had time to ask.

And actually the curious thing is not just Maya.

A lot of pairs of eyes noticed the two of them who looked suspicious because they continued to move positions without any activities they did except directing small objects in front of the faces of both.

"The name "smart phone, can be used to send a message in one second and can paint in a short time. The mother just took it out because it would be useless if used continuously.."

"The mother wants to make it a memory" Maya said sadly. "Mother is really going?" Maya's face desperately expects an answer not to slide out of her mother's mouth.

His mother smiled even shady. A smile that calms Maya's heart.

Which means Maya's guess is correct.

"Mother will return.."

Maya and Udelia are devastated. Those who were being seriously interrupted by a petty thief.

The clever thief's hand was carrying Udelia's cell phone. The thief was very clever by entering the crowd disguising himself.

Maya looked worriedly at her mother who was silent in her place. Their clothes were convoluted and difficult to carry.

Even a female knight had to tear off clothes like this first to show their talent.

These clothes were unlikely to be tampered with as this was the first batik they made together.

"Smart things are carried by fools!" Maya gritted her teeth. He turned around to tell a bodyguard who was passing by.

The mouths of people gaped at the sight of a beautiful woman fully dressed as if partying, flying above them.

Udelia landed and her hand stuck out catching the thief's nape.

"How dare you take my stuff!" udelia's wrath was like a terrible whisper of a demon.

"Forgive knights.." The little thief was instantly unconscious.

Udelia threw the thief at the bodyguard who was late.

"WHAT A COOL MOTHER!!!" scream Maya.

Udelia looked at her clothes and Maya's clothes. She was already used to wearing this outfit so it did not feel that she was wearing such elaborate party clothes.

The woman from another dimension smiled broadly. Udelia pulled her daughter's hand slowly to go to the deserted riverbank.

Maya follows her mother without questioning or refuting.

Udelia curled Maya's hair and made her a konde. He flicked his finger and then came the sour-faced Utih.

"You're this"

"Look, daughter. We're gonna complete this outfit."

"Mother!?" Maya screams in shock to see Maharani makuta being bitten by Utih.

It is his country's precious treasure.

"If it's greatness. My beautiful daughter just put this on." Udelia stuck her hand out at Utih. Utih threw the straw bag and disappeared from there.

Inside the bag are five menthul cduk. Maya was a little confused to see it.

"It's a snub menthul, ma'am?"

"Yes, honey. The one that sprinkled this black pearl from your father, Maharaja Bhumi Maja.." Udelia put the black pearl-studded methul duck on to the Maya konde.

"The greenish is from your father, Mahapatih Bhumi Maja."

"The plain golden one with no other color than a powerful magician."

"This red one is from Rakryan Tumenggung."

"This white medium is from the Great Sage."

Udelia smiled happily at the sight of the five menthul cduks had been neatly attached to Maya's hair. "My daughter is so beautiful!" his praise.

Maya widened her eyes feeling a lot of power going into her body.

Udelia smiled seeing Maya being able to absorb the protective power that the five people gave her through menthul subduing.

Now Udelia's heart was calm because her daughter had been guarded by those who could.

"Let's take another photo, baby!" invite Udelia who has used her meaning.

This time they went around in quiet places to take as many pictures as possible.

After that they dined in the shop of Hasta, the most famous store in Bhumi Maja. Maya slows her down so they still have time.

The food on the plate will run out. Maya washes her hands reluctantly.

"Before you text your father, how about meeting your father first?"

Udelia still remembered the promise of herself and the husband she loved. When he came to this world, Udelia would meet him for the first time.

Maya raises her eyebrows. The first thing her mother looked for was the number two, not the number one.

Maya a little unexpected because usually people will prefer to meet the Maharaja first and greet the Mahapatih.

"Mother doesn't miss father?" ask Maya plain.

"There is no need to think of people who don't think of us." Udelia slips her hands together in Maya's armpits and holds Maya up in a horse-drawn carriage.

Maya is both embarrassed and happy. He is an adult and should be able to ride a horse carriage with his feet snediri. But he was also happy because he was spoiled by his mother.

"To Mada's residence!"
