Chapter 215: chapter 215- Sacrifice
Ask Gaia, with Taufik who fell unconscious in her arms.
"Yes"
"And who is this Exotic Bird beside you?"
Gaia asked, looking at Nāgāntaka floating beside Lembuswana.
"The Name is Nāgāntaka, My Master Mount, can I know what your Relationship with my Master"
"Ohh~ you can talk?...
Hearing Nāgāntaka speak, Gaia looked shocked and amazed. And then looked at Taufik in her arms and then said.
... This guy never stops amazing me; the people/being around him are so unique. Ahh ~ my Name is Gaia; about my Relationship with your Master, hm~ how should I say it? It\'s quite complicated, but you could say that our relationship is quite special... Oh~ Lembu, do you have a place to stay? A place where we can put Taufik to rest?"
"Hah? A place to stay? We just basically arrived at this timeline yesterday, what did you expect?"
"Okay~... But why do you seem so angry?"
Said Gaia, commenting on Lembuswana who spoke sarcastically.
"I... AM... I\'m angry and frustrated, that kid is unconscious due to running out of mana, meaning we will stay in this timeline longer, this is not the first time he has been like this, in my world, he was like this too, they used the best elixir and the best doctor in my world, and it took months for him to regain consciousness, but now, what?
We don\'t have any elixir or doctor to treat him, he might take longer to regain consciousness than before this time... *Sigh* I knew we shouldn\'t have done this"
"... I can try something... But we have found a place to stay first, staying here, makes me uncomfortable because I still can feel their Gaze toward me"
Gaia said while looking up at the sky.
"... Then let\'s go back to the previous Island; Nāgāntaka took Taufik in your back... We can\'t let a lady like her carry a man like that, don\'t we?"
"Alright"
Answered Nāgāntaka who then approached Gaia. Seeing this, Gaia seemed hesitant to put Taufik on Nāgāntaka\'s back because she preferred to carry Taufik for now, but seeing the gazes of Lembuswana and Nāgāntaka who were waiting, she reluctantly had to hand over the unconscious Taufik to Nāgāntaka.
"... Let\'s go"
Said Gaia, and then the three of them flew towards the island where they spent the previous night.
---------------
On their way to the island they were heading to, perhaps out of boredom, Gaia looked towards Lembuswana Because somehow, Gaia felt attracted to a creature of her own kind, an Aboriginal Being like her, and then asked.
"... You mention about "Your World" Before, can I ask-"
"No"
Lembuswana said, refusing to answer Gaia\'s question, even before Gaia could say the question she wanted to ask.
"Hmmph~ you\'re a meanie! If you don\'t want to talk then I can ask Nāgāntaka"
Gaia said, which made Nāgāntaka, who had been silent all this time, turn to look at Gaia with a look that seemed to say, "Why me?"
"So~ Nāgāntaka, how does this Doll world look like?"
Hearing Gaia\'s question, Nāgāntaka looked between Lembuswana and Gaia. Seeing that Lembuswana didn\'t seem to mind if he gave Gaia an answer, Nāgāntaka said.
"He\'s World is a World full of Dragon... At that time My Master Arrived...
After that, Nāgāntaka told Gaia about Taufik\'s adventures on the planet Draco, starting from him moving from one continent to another, to the wars they fought, he told what he remembered and Gaia just listened silently, once in a while Gaia made an expression, whether it was happy, sad and also jealous, after the story was finished, they could finally see the shadow of the island from a distance.
"... Wow! His world seems so Interesting, but I did not expect that this guy turn out to be a bad guy... But what is more amazing is that Taufik can accept a bad person like him as part of his family, he is truly an amazing man"
Said Gaia, while stealing a glance at Lembuswana, Lembuswana who listened to what Gaia said could only click his tongue, which he somehow could do even though his body was currently a doll\'s body; he couldn\'t oppose what Gaia said because it was true.
"Stop talking, and you better think about how you can treat Taufik because we are about to arrive at the Island"
"Hmmph~ I know it without you need to tell me, you bad guy"
"*Tch* Trouble some"
Lembuswana said, and Nāgāntaka, who saw this, could only feel awkward.
*Rumble!*
"!!!" x3
Before they could reach the island, the three of them were surprised by the sound of thunder because, at that time, the sky was clear, and there were no dark clouds visible in the sky.
"Oh no!"
"... What is that?"
"Lembu we better get out of here as soon as possible!"
"Why? Are you afraid of thunder? What a childish Aboriginal being you are?"
"No, It\'s not Ordinary Thunder, It\'s a Sign that Zeus will be here soon, we better get going before he comes here"
"Zeus? That R*per God? I thought with you here, no outside threats would be able to enter Earth, and aren\'t you stronger than most of the other Gods, including Zeus?"
"That was me back then, but after being sealed for so long, my strength has not fully recovered, and Zeus and the other Gods are not outsiders, they are basically all from Earth... Let\'s get out of here as soon as possible, at least if we are on land I can still put up a little resistance, the rest I will leave to you"

Said Gaia who quickly flew to the island they wanted to go to, followed by Nāgāntaka.
And Lembuswana, who heard what Gaia said, could only remain silent. After he realized that Gaia and Nāgāntaka had flown far away from him, Lembuswana chased after them and then shouted at Gaia.
"WHAT? ME?!! WHAT DID YOU EXPECT ME TO DO?"
"You\'re a Being like me, so you probably have a great strength, isn\'t it?"
"WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? WITHOUT TAUFIK TURNING MY BODY TO THE ORIGINAL SHAPE, I\'M BASICALLY JUST A DOLL WITH STRENGTH; I CAN\'T FIGHT A GOD WITH THIS KIND OF BODY; DO YOU ASK ME TO DIE? NO, THANK YOU, THERE\'S STILL MANY ANIME AND MOVIE WAITING FOR ME AT HOME"
Lembuswana shouted once again, but then he suddenly felt goosebumps; again, no one knew how he could do that because his body was currently just a doll. Lembuswana then looked behind him; he saw a crack that was about to open; seeing this, Lembuswana panicked even more and shouted back at Gaia.
"GAIA! YOU BETTER DO SOMETHING!! THEY WILL COME SOON, OTHERWISE THE THREE OF US WILL DIE!!"
Hearing this, Gaia suddenly stopped, and seeing this Lembuswana and Nāgāntaka also stopped.
"Hy! We\'ll be arriving at the island in a moment, what do you want to do? keep moving!"
"... Lembu, I need your help... Help me seal the Earth completely; I can\'t do it with the amount of Mana that I have right now; transfer all your mana to me; you and I are the same kind, So the Mana that we both have must also be the same, the same Original Mana"
Said Gaia who looked at Lembuswana with a serious gaze.
"What? I thought they were from Earth and could enter the Earth as they pleased, and I couldn\'t give you all my Mana, I\'m alive because of that, if you take all of it, it\'s the same as asking me to die, I rather then die because fighting all of that god than die stupidly like that, Think of another safer way"
"There\'s no other way, then just give me an amount that is safe for you, the rest, I will make a sacrifice a little"
"... You don\'t think something stupid, don\'t you?"
"..."
Lembuswana asked, but the answer Gaia gave was just a look filled with determination.
"... *Sigh* Nāgāntaka, Be on guard"
"Leave it to me"
After that, Lembuswana flew towards Gaia, because the large crack that appeared in the sky was already half open.
Seeing Lembuswana approaching, Gaia immediately took a pose like someone praying, putting her hands together with her eyes closed.
Lembuswana then placed both of his puppet\'s palms on Gaia\'s back and began to channel his Mana towards Gaia.
"... You better prepare for any consequences that will happen after this, Gaia; using the power of the planet\'s Core is not something to be taken lightly. If you do that, you will be powerless until the planet\'s Core is recharged, and even I never do something like that...
An Aboriginal Being without power is just an ordinary being without power, and that will continue for a long time, Are you ready for that?"
"... I\'ll already thoughts about that, I\'ll use your Mana to draw out Planet\'s Core power... Even if it makes me powerless, at least it will give us time until Taufik wakes up... He is our only hope"
"..."
Hearing this, Lembuswana could only remain silent and continued to transfer his Mana to Gaia; after the amount was sufficient, Lembuswana pulled back both of his hands.
"It\'s all I can give... The rest is you... rs"
Said Lembuswana who then immediately fainted to refill his Mana. Seeing this, Nāgāntaka immediately caught Lembuswana who fell.
"Thank you... And leave the rest to me"
Said Gaia, who then immediately opened both of her eyes; her irises, which previously looked like the Earth, were now replaced by white; Gaia\'s eyes emitted white light, and her hair flowed upwards.
The earth shook, creating an earthquake, but strangely enough, the seawater was still calm, then, something emerged from the sea beneath Gaia, it looked like tree roots that immediately wrapped around Gaia\'s body from her feet to her waist, the roots were pulsing like a heart, channeling great power to Gaia, lines like pulses that burned like lava were visible on every part of Gaia\'s body and were still visible even with Gaia\'s clothes covering her.
*Swoosh!*
Shockwave, created from Gaia\'s body, made Nāgāntaka struggle to keep Taufik and Lembuswana, who were on his back, from falling.
Gaia then raised both of her hands and a moment later, six very large and layered Magic Circles were created. The six Magic Circles created around the Earth seemed to enclose the Earth in the middle when viewed from outer space.
From the view of outer space, the Six Magic Circles spun around for a while, and then disappeared into particles of remaining mana, creating a beautiful sight that could be witnessed by all beings on Earth at that time.
The Mana particles seemed to be sucked into the Earth at once, and disappeared, and were then replaced by a transparent screen that came out from the Earth\'s core, growing larger and larger until it reached the Earth\'s atmosphere.
"GAIA!! DON\'T THINK THAT THIS IS OVER!!! YOU BETTER HAND OVER THE BOY, BEFORE SOMETHING BAD HAPPENS!!"
That was the scream that Gaia heard before she fell unconscious and was then also captured by Nāgāntaka.
