Cross The World With System
Mute witness

"Haha you seem to love your wife very much." Azril.

Xio looked at Ellisa's face in the photo. With a smile he replied straightforwardly, "I love him very much."

Azril who saw Xio's serious gaze, chuckled while ruffling her hair. "Haha How does it feel like you're not sleeping alone anymore?" Goda.

"It is fitting that this room still smells of beautiful women. You must be a beast every night." Heldir.

"Sial*n you're Heldir. Let's just talk in the other room!" Xio exclaimed down from the bed and pushed Heldir and Azril out of the room.

Xio took them to the park and the three sat in the gazebo there. Waiters began to arrive, some were serving drinks, and some were serving snacks on the table in front of the three of them.

Heldir had just seen the brownish-black liquid in one of his cups. Out of curiosity he asked Xio.

"What water is this? The aroma is strong and concentrated." He smelled it first.

"It's espresso coffee." Answer Xio.

When Heldir tried to take a sip, his face suddenly turned wry. For the first time I drank something so bitter.

"Crazy dad! Who would want to drink a bitter drink like this?"

"Haha it does taste bitter, but it can make the body fresh thanks to its caffeine." Azril.

"Caffeine? What is caffeine?" Confused Heldir.

Xio replied, "caffeine, is a crystalline and bitter-tasting xanthine alkaloid compound that works as a psychoactive stimulant and mild diuretic," His words that make Heldir more confused because it was the first time to hear these terms. "If you don't want to be too bitter, you can add milk." Add Xio.

Heldir told the waiter to add milk to his cup of coffee. And when drinking again it feels a little different, not as bitter as before but there is still a thick aroma of coffee. He just found out there is a drink called coffee, because in fact coffee does not exist in the world, and Xio recently introduced by making his coffee bean fields in the mountains.

Xio just remembered not telling Heldir that he was from a different world.

Then he told her succinctly that she was from a planet called Earth that was different from Flix's world, because there was no such thing as magic or monsters. It's just that the technology is more advanced.

Heldir was not too surprised, because he had seen some strange things that Xio had used such as his cellphone and laptop.

"So your wife was there too?" Heldir asked Deheman answered by Xio who was sipping his coffee.

"If there are no monsters there, it means that life on earth is more peaceful." Her thought.

"It's not as volatile as you might imagine. Although there are no creepy Monsters, but there are humans whose behavior is worse than monsters," Azril replied then glanced at Xio. "I found it there too." Her speech.

"Ohh so.." Heldir only ber oh ria.

"Grandfather, do you know who my mother really is?" Ask Xio.

"Your mother Nadia? Explain to me his wife Jhonatan." Answer Azril.

"Mean grandfather also does not know," said Xio made Azril wonder, because he only knew the name and appearance of Nadia alone. "Some time ago my father…….." Xio tells what Jhonatan told him about him meeting Nadia in a heaven-like place, and Nadia has the real name Diana.

Azril and Heldir widened their eyes like they were shocked to hear what Xio said about the story about his mother.

'It seems they know something.' thought Xio looking at from the expression of the two.

Heldir and Azril were seen instantly thinking while stroking his chin.

"....no, that's impossible." Heldir Mumbled.

"Is Jonathan sure of what he saw?" Ask Azril.

"Dad was sure. He even said he could touch mom." Answer Xio.

"Xio, try showing me your light element!" Tell Azril and Xio to bring out the light element from the palm.

Azril stared at the light energy for a moment. And on his lips there was a smile. "Hahaha.." he laughed while covering his face with the palm of his hand. "...Either I should call it a blessing or not this coincidence!" Her speech.

"What does grandfather mean?" Confused Xio.

"No it seems like your second life is filled with blessings," Azril patted Xio on the shoulder. "Your mother is an extraordinary entity in the universe, even her majesty surpasses that of the gods." 

"If you're so strong, why would she get sick and leave me?" Xio lowered his head and propped up his forehead with both hands.I don't know if he was currently filled with disappointment thinking if his mother was strong it was impossible to get sick.

Azril glanced at Heldir hinting him to leave the two of them behind. Heldir nodded in understanding and left from there.

"Did mom just pretend to be sick and cry just to be able to leave me and dad?" Xio's lips twitched, "Every night I often hear my mother crying in her own room while being sick. Every day I take care of her while worrying about her. Why would you do that just to leave?"

"Didn't mom care about me? Do you not love me anymore? Do you have someone more dear to you there? What mother….." Xio continued muttering to himself thinking that his mother had been sick just engineering. He did not even hear Azril calling his name.

"Xio...Xio...Xio hey!" Shouted Azril holding onto Xio's face and looking at his eyes seriously until Xio realized. "Look! Don't keep thinking negatively of the person who gave birth to you! It's true that your mother is a strong person, but there's no way she really wants to leave you. Although I'm not sure, but there must be a reason why he left."

"How did your mother's expression and impression of you look?"

Xio let go of Azril's hand which was holding his cheek. He then imagined the beautiful face of his mother who smiled if he did something right or wrong. Even when he was sick, his mother never let out a smile in front of him.

"Mother always smiles sincerely, her smile is so pretty." Her speech.

"Now think. For what a After world empress came to earth only to marry an ordinary man and give birth to a son. If he's not sincere, then why is he taking care of you from the womb to the world, teaching you manners, giving you affection, and smiling at you!" Azril explained, "he wants to make you happy, feel the affection of mother, and make you a strong man. Grandpa doesn't know why your mom got sick even though she's a powerful entity, but I'm sure your mom loves you very much." Azril stroked Xio's shoulder.

'Grandfather's right mother couldn't have left me on purpose.' Inner Xio. "Hahh.I want to see mom's smile again." He sighed.

"I think your mother would want to meet her son, too. Who has now grown into a big man haha!" Azril slapped Xio on the back. "By the way, is Rose now living with you?" Ask to shift the topic.

"Yes grandma lives in Grandpa's house. Do you want to meet Grandma now?" Xio asked back.

"Eh hehe no-no, later so when you become your escort all give him a surprise hehe." Azril laughed awkwardly.

Xio smiled wickedly, "grandfather is afraid of grandma yah?" 

"Who's afraid, huh? I've never been afraid of anyone!" Sangkal Azril puffed his chest, 'Except the Woman.' His inner being had forgotten that Xio could hear him.

"Hahh, it can't seem to be hidden anymore." Azril said sipping his coffee first and then putting it back on the table. "Do you know that every world has its guardians?"

Xio shook his head, "Are they like gods?"

"Nearly god-like, but they are even stronger. The Earth has its guard, the world of Flix also has its guard. It used to be that grandfather was the guardian of the Flix World to keep this world from being destroyed. But since grandfather failed to take care of him which led to the splitting of this world, so grandfather stopped being a guard again."

"I'm so curious, why exactly could this world of Flix be destroyed?" Xio asked hoping that Azril would give his details.

"This world could be destroyed because there is someone who fights the gods, thus causing this world to be what it is today."

"Why didn't Grandpa prevent them?"

"If you could have stopped him, but at that time grandfather did not know that someone who dared to fight against the god turned out to be a higher entity than anyone else than grandfather."

Xio smiled, he had already gotten to who the person really was. But he did not yet know what the main factor of such a person was against a god. If asked, Azril would not answer, but now he must be more vigilant because his enemy is the gods.

"If grandfather doesn't become the guardian of Flix's world anymore, then now who's guarding him?" Ask Xio.

"There are two people. One preserves the world of Flix that we live in today, and the other keeps a separate world where the gods are there." Answer Azril.

"Grandfather I want to be stronger!" Xio suddenly shouted.

"According to your grandfather now this alone is strong, and can defeat a god. Why do you want to be stronger?" 

"Now I have a lot of responsibilities. Other than your kingdom, I have very valuable people that I must protect. I don't want anyone to touch them. If I can only fight a god, then I want to be able to fight all the gods at once!" Firm Xio.

"Well then you must prepare mentally and physically!" Azril held onto both of Xio's shoulders with a proud look and smiled suspiciously.

Meanwhile on the side of Jhonatan. This afternoon he had just come home from taking care of the preparations for Xio's event. Getting out of the car he immediately walked into the house.

In the living room he saw Ellisa sitting on the sofa playing with Nathan and Tassa accompanied by several maids sitting on the floor. 

"Oh, you're home?" Ellisa. The maids also immediately stood up and pulled over when they saw Jonathan.

"Yes this afternoon there's a dad's friend's game." Jhonatan walked in and sat back on the sofa.

"What do you want to drink?" Ask one of the maids.

"Make me juice." Jhonatan and Maid answered immediately went to the kitchen. Then Jonathan took Nathan and Tassa from Ellisa's lap, "Ehmm my grandkids are so funny!" He stuck his nose with the children's noses alternately. Then there was the sound of laughter typical of babies from both of them that added to the anxiety of people who saw it.

"What game is it?" Ask Ellisa.

"Ordinary basketball." Answer Jhonatan. Although he is almost 40 years old, but he and his age friends still do their youth activities such as basketball, or just gather. 

"Can I come?" 

"of course! Dad gets more excited about his basketball game when you watch." Jhonatan. Until the juice arrived, they chatted for a while until 3 pm. Jhonatan said he had to take his Jersey first in the old house, so Ellisa also went with him with Juli who became the driver.

Arriving at the old house, somehow Jhonatan even remembered the memories with Nadia. In every corner of the house even imagined him.

Jonathan could see the shadow of Nadia who was watering plants, cooking in the kitchen, and when he entered the room, he saw Nadia who was hanging out in their bed.

But Jhonatan knew it was only his shadow because this house was full of memories with him. He then sat on the edge of the bed and stroked the surface of his mattress. "I didn't see you when you were here. And now when you're gone, I see you everywhere." Sluggishly.

Jhonatan recalls that when his wife was sick, he moved to another room with another woman while Nadia slept alone in the room. He regretted leaving his wife to sleep alone where he knew how cold the mattress would be if no one accompanied him. Because now he also experiences what it feels like to be lonely at night.

"I don't deserve to feel this sad because I made it this way…"

This Jhonatan house is very large with all the complete facilities such as a gym, swimming pool, flower garden, spacious garage, and, and there are still many other luxury facilities considering he is a conglomerate it is not strange if there is a helicopter parking lot as well.

After moving into Xio's house, he had no intention of selling his house at all. Because the house had become a silent witness at the beginning of his marriage with Nadia, had a son and took care of him together until he grew up, and it was also the last time he saw his wife lying helpless.

If all that did not happen, maybe now he still lives with his wife in the house playing with his grandchildren love to old together.

Unknowingly, Jhonatan was hugging a pillow that had been used by his wife's sleep. And a drop of water soaked the pillow that still contained fragrant wife.

***

Diana was bathing with her ladies in the pool of heaven. Her day helps her rub her hair, rubbing her hands and feet using a very fragrant liquid. 

"Great empress, do you remember that great prince and man again?" Asked a brown-haired woman sitting by the pool looking at Diana's riled expression. Emma is one of the guards of Afterworld.

"Hmm I want to go back down." Answer Diana.

"If the empress misses him so much, why not just go down?"

"If I go down, then who will replace me here?" 

"The Empress can count on me with the others. How many years have we never had an uninvited guest again."

He's dissolved in his mind. Afterworld had indeed not been the arrival of the rebels for a long time, but who knew the rebels could come at any time. On the other hand he can feel that at this time his husband and son are missing him, as well as he himself who misses them.
