BATTLE OR ALIVE
Chapter 21: The Obedient

A sunny morning in the Athera Kingdom, on a wide field and rarely covered with trees to create a stunning green grass field, Jell, Mai, and, and Emma was in one of the trees growing there as a shade from the sun.

The tree that was full of memories of how they got this far, it was the tree that had once been the shelter of Jell and Mai when they reached this world.

Jell was standing, Mai was sitting, and Emma was standing next to Jell.

Stretching his body and to add to the spirit Jell shouted. Following Jell, Emma did the same thing, the scenery she created could make people who saw them would definitely see the sight of a father and his little daughter.

“Alright, let's Emma do the exercises.”

“Nn!”

Stepping away from the trees and out into the open on the grass field, Jell and Emma were ready for their first joint training.

Jell intends to train Emma because she thinks it can be profitable and she also wants to see how the systems that govern humans work in this world. But they're not NPCs, are they? Jell who thought while looking at Emma who prepared in front of him.

“Emma show me your class.”

(I changed the word "Job" to "Class" because it sounds more suitable.)

“Good!”

Emma took a position, spread her arms out in front of her screaming name skil and slapdash.

“I call you from within my soul, come and obey me, Obedien!”

(Obedient, he said?)

Sitting back and looking at Jell and Emma doing the training, Mai is surprised by the strength shown by Emma.

Obedient, is an A-level skill. It was not just an ordinary skill, Obedient could only be used by one type of job, it was not a strong Fighter in close combat or a powerful Mage in magic battle, but a Support/Summoner.

Support/Summoner is an exact but different job. Both are classified in the same job, which is the type of job Support.

That's because a Summoner is not a type of fighter job but an assist. Both are in the back row in the group and their job is to help the team.

But despite having the same task, but their work is different. A Support is a type of job that focuses on Buff, De-Buff, and Healing.

Support focuses on Buff, De-Buff, and Summoning. It looks the same but they are very different, if a Supporter has to have a back up to maintain strength, a Summoner does not need it, it is because they will do a contract with Spirit, Angel, summoning, and Demon.

A magic gate appeared before Emma who was doing the summoning, and the light produced by the magic gate was quite dazzling which made Jell have to cover her eyes from the direct light.

The strong wind that was blowing had stopped in the follow as well by the dimming of the light from the magic gate, and only narrating one unknown creature in front of them, it was a bird? Jell doesn't know her form very well.

And as expected, a bird has been successfully summoned. Want to see from anywhere this is Wind Spirit type.

“Ohh~”

Jell raised her gaze and was quite impressed by how a Summoner performed the summoning, Jell saw what Emma was calling and tried to see just how powerful this Spirit was.

In calling, the summoned creature will follow the caller. If the person doing the summoning has an aura and which is great then the summoned creature is most likely an Angel or a top-level Demon, conversely, if the caller is just a beginner, most of the callers are Spirit.

And there were also rumors that said if the summoner made the summoning in a desperate condition or was slumped and destroyed, then they would most likely be able to summon a mid to upper-level Demon.

And for the case, it is clear that the creature called by Emma is a weak creature. Jell's expectations were slightly shattered because she thought she could see the summoning of top-tier creatures like Demon or Angel.

Emma who finished the call went to Jell to report. He put on a bright face because he could show Jell good work, Jell who realized that put on a smile and patted his ship to give praise.

Jell is still looking and trying to find something from the Spirit called by Emma, she seems to want to understand something but Emma does not know what she means. But in contrast to Emma who was just silent while holding back her curiosity, Mai came and asked.

“What's the problem?”

“No, it's not so. But I seem to understand something.”

While making a question mark, Mai tilted her head.

“What is it?”

Jell who was still busy looking at and researching the Spirit called Emma, was silent and did not answer Mai, it upset her a little.

But the next step Jell took instead of answering Mai's question, Jell squeezed and killed the Spirit instead.

Seeing what Jell did left Mai and Emma stunned, and the one who received the most damage was Emma, because the creature she summoned was destroyed by Jell.

“While I haven't named it.”

While slumped and fell after receiving great damage Emma made a sound.

“What did you do by destroying the Spirit that Emma called, ha!”

But unlike Emma who just slumped in despair, Mai firmly gripped the collar of Jell's robe and tried to lift it, but what was given to such conditions Jell only apologized.

“Sorry, Emma, I didn't accidentally.”

“H... It's okay Onii-chan, I'm fine.”

While putting on a gloomy and black face Emma said that she was fine, but Jell certainly did not believe that.

“But in exchange I have good news for Emma.”

“Good news?”

“Nn, true.”

While standing up and putting on a cool pose, Jell tells her that she has good news for Emma, but Mai, still upset at him, berates Jell and asks if he can give better than the hard work of a 13-year-old girl.

To get the meaning from Mai, Jell did not accept and answered her words with the same meaning for a reply. But, Mai who did not accept that she was ugly by Jell, replied with mockery again.

“What did you say, lady handyman looking for trouble!”

“Search for problems you say? You bad guy!”

“Who is the bad guy? Haven't gelut?!”

“Who is afraid.”

Holding each other's lapels, Jell and Mai get hot and this could end up being a bloodbath. But from the heat of the two of them, only one person who had seen them and laughed saw her, it was Emma.

“Haha, Onii-chan and Onee-chan are very familiar, yes. When did you guys meet? I want to know you guys more in.”

Because of a neutral who interrupts their fights, eventually the battles do not become negligent and each of them only turn to each other.

***

Right now Jell, Mai, and Emma are still doing their exercises in the beautiful meadow, waiting for Jell to tell them the good news she said, Jell is currently sitting face to face with Emma, likening the view she holds on Emma's shoulder.

“Alright, I start.”

“Nn!”

Jell who was holding onto Emma's shoulder her hand let out a fairly strong wind, Emma closed her eyes but could still feel the gust of wind. Moving her hand she lowered it to Emma's chest.

Mai who saw it was immediately shocked and put on a red face. Harassment, this is harassment! She actually wanted to scream like that, but seeing Jell who was concentrating on what she was doing she held herself back.

When Jell's hand that touched Emma's chest instantly gave off light, a bright light came out of the touch that Jell was doing, and a flash of light exploded and Emma seemed to soak in the light.

“Alright, it's done.”

Emma who said she had finished opening her eyes while holding her chest which was held by Jell. Although she only touched my chest, but this was a little embarrassing, Emma commented on herself blushing on her face.

“Hm? Uh!”

“Oh, did it work?”

Emma who had been flushed now opened her eyes in surprise, it was because her body felt very light and felt her mana churning burning inside her.

He who does not know what he is going through, but only one that he understands, at this time the weak Emma is no longer there.

“What are you doing?”

“Transfusion mana.”

“What is it?”

Mai has yet to understand what Jell said with which transfusion she did, Jell explains what she did to the two of them.

The thing that Jell did was very simple, he just divided the amount of mana that belonged to Emma and transferred it. This does sound simple but the thing Jell said is impossible, it is because transferring mana from individual to individual is impossible.

The reason being mana is the soul part of the individual himself, in other words transferring mana to another person is the same as suicide.

But the law was rejected by Jell and the fact that he managed to perform a transfusion mana.

Emma, listening to Jell open her eyes, doesn't know what Jell is doing to her body, but she can tell that what Jell is doing is all she can do. Emma now admired Jell even more.

“Great! It could be like that, huh?”

“I realized it from the contract call that Emma did earlier, plus the information that I have ever obtained, I am sure this will work.”

“Information? From whom?”

“Eh? You don't know? That's when I saw the info about BOA will do an update, listed clearly there about the new feature [Tranfusion] so I tried it.”

“Then what does this have to do with the calling contract?”

“I saw while doing the summoning we have to give mana for the call creature to live on, so by using that base, I blended it.”

“Great, Jell you're great!”

“Fufu~”

For this reason Mai could not cover up her ignorance and admiration for Jell's intelligence.

Taking on the impossible that no one had even thought of, Jell was currently showing who he was.

But only Emma still did not understand what the two were talking about.

“BOA? What is it?”

Unknowingly she opened her mouth and told Jell and Mai the questions about BOA, those who were faced with the questions made a difficult face.

There is no way they will explain that they are not from this world, but from another world that created their world. It is the thing that humanity fears most in any era.

Jell was hard to avoid that question, but what Mai was doing was going through her thoughts, Mai lowered her head and patted Emma on the head, she started talking.

“Mai, are you seriously saying that?”

“It's okay, isn't it? After all he is a genius kid, and I trust him.”

Emma is confused by the attitude of the two, they hide a very big secret, but Mai decides to tell her about the truth of this world and where they both come from, regarding the system, the game, and the, their previous world civilizations, languages, cultures, and fundamental things about the earth.

Mai explained everything in detail and Emma listened carefully.

“Earth, the system, in other words, Onii-chan and Onee-chan are really great people, yes!”

““Eh?””

“Finally, from billions of people only you two are the chosen ones, not in other words you are special!”

For a 13-year-old child he was not at all afraid or asked the truth of their story, but what he concluded was a tribute to both of them for being a chosen person.

“Hahah, right, we are this special. So don't tell anyone about this, ok?”

“Nn, of course!”

Emma put on an excited face because she accepted the reality that was very heavy, she was a very strong child, what Mai said in her heart when she saw Emma who instead of being afraid she looked excited.

“Oh yes, by the way how many mana do you transfer?”

“Hm, that's one million.”

“Ha! Are you crazy to transfer that much mana into a container as small as Emma?”

“S-Sa-one j-ju-ta...!?”

“Emma what's wrong? You look pale. Are there any side effects?”

“Onii-chan! Listen to me, I'm fine anyway. More importantly, Onii-chan how much mana do you have? You're only joking with that one million aren't you?”

“Ah, that, where mine is unlimited, tau. And I really gave you a million.”

While scratching her cheek she answered Emma's question of excessive vigor.

But the reality was so cruel, Emma fell silent and turned to paper, she froze silently, not breathing. Either way, the reason is which number belongs to Jell.

He casually said how much mana he had, he was like a god.

“K-If Onee-chan how much?”

“Punyaku equals Jell.”'s

!!!

Emma went back to paper, she thought that only Jell had gone crazy saying that amount, but it turned out that Mai said it too.

(They're crazy, they could both destroy this world if they wanted to.)

“Onii-chan, can we go home now? I feel so tired.”

Emma was already unable to withstand the fatigue and burden of thought in her head, for now she just wanted to sleep and start a new day, even though it was still morning.

One of the reasons why Emma was shocked was that she thought the world Jell and Mai lived in had a system that was much weaker than this world, and he thought Jell and Mai's strength was only at the general level, but it turned out that he missed very far.

“There are side effects? You should rest first, you should familiarize yourself with mana with that amount.”

“True... I have to get used to.”.

***

Arriving at the inn, the helpless little girl slept on a bed twice as large as an angel sleeping on a cloud.

“He's exhausted, let him rest.”

“You do it like Jellika-chan, am I right?”

Sitting down and relaxing while Mai makes drinks, they talk about little Emma sleeping.

“Jellika looks similar to her, but Jellika is much cooler.”

“Haha, you must understand his attitude, if you do not want him one day will hate his beloved brother.”

“I'll try.”

Their conversation was bouncing about their family relationship, Mai finished preparing a drink and it was of course Jell's favorite milk shake.

He drank it with all his heart, this is one of the many memories of the earth that can be enjoyed in this world.

“Enak as usual”

For her praise to Mai, she put on a big smile. Move her chair and sit next to Jell. While talking about a memory of the earth, they both looked like a husband and wife talking next to their sleeping child.

“Hmm..?”

A voice came out from the angel girl sleeping in the cloud, looked and looked around and ended up staring at Jell and Mai who were sitting side by side.

Jell and Mai also sensed her existence, she looked even better and already did not have such a pale face just now. Gratitude came out of the hearts of both of them.

“Emma, how about a drink?”

“That?”

“This milk shake, delicious loh.”

Emma got up and sat between the seats, drinking Jell's part she put on a surprised face. She looks shining from her eyes, she shares a kitten this time, our little angel is already a cat.

“Nak! What is this?”

“Fufufu, you naih Emma-chan, this is still not how much.”

Mai who gets the praise and shock of Emma makes her puff her chest, she starts to enter an absurd arrogant mode.

Jell who saw it was just a wry smile, ignoring him she asked Emma the current state.

Emma replies that she is fine, she explains that there are no side effects of which transfer is done, so she tells Jell not to worry about her.

“If you say so how else.”

Emma who was happy about the worry Jell gave her, she during her time with Lhava never got this gentle behavior, she wanted to shed tears because of it.

“True, Emma how about you try calling again? Who knows if this time you could call Angel.”

“Nn, I'll try it now!”

“Wait a minute.”

Right now it was the right condition to make the summon, after all Emma did not get the negative impact, so by sleeping it would recover the mana she used when making the first call earlier.

So for now is the right time to do lucky draw. But it was all stopped, Mai asked to postpone the call.

He should have realized that in this condition it should be the right timing to get a high level creature.But he rejected it and there must be a strong reason for it.

“Why? You still worried? Emma says she's fine.”

For a barrier as big as Mai, Jell asked her why to stop this great moment. But Mai shook her head, she explained her proposal.

“Not so, Emma will make a call, right? So what if we add to its success?”

“Add, don't say.”

“True, I will transfer my mana as well. How's Emma, you want?”

The reason Mai gave was very profitable, she intended to transfer her mana to increase the success of obtaining high-level creatures.

Looks like Mai also wants to target Angel-level creatures, or maybe can get Valkyrie-level Angels.

“Nn! Of course.”

“Alright, then just go straight.”

Mai takes her position by sitting her eyes equal to Emma's just like Jell did. She held onto Emma's shoulder and as expected, the wind blew strongly from their touch.

Lowering her hand and holding onto Emma's chest, light came out of that touch and then of course Emma absorbed the light.

“For where? Can you feel it?”

“Nn, I can feel it clearly.”

“Good.”

To make sure this time there are no side effects during the transfusion where done.

“By the way, Onee-chan, how much did you transfer?”

“One million.”

Mai who said it coolly, while installing the ‘v’ model in her hands. But Emma was not able to put on such a face, she had to get used to this.

“Alright let's try.”

Emma stood in the middle of the room that had been empty right by Jell, to provide enough space so that the furniture was not damaged by shock waves when the magic gate appeared.

Emma entered in her concentration, she closed her eyes while playing her breath.

She did not look like a little girl anymore, the charm she gave off was exquisite, her silent figure put on her sharp eyes and her breathing lips, she said, reminded her when Mai performed a ‘S’ level skill while they were in the dungeon.

“I call you from within my soul, come and obey me, Obedient!”

Rapalan is neatened, with his hands spread. The magic gate appeared with a strong gust of wind accompanying it, but there was something different about this summoning, the magic gate created by Emma looked extremely detailed and powerful.

For the first magic gate that Emma did not turn out to be this powerful, this was the effect of increasing her strength.

The magic gate with red color was born, this was very different from before, for the first magic gate that Emma took out had a bluish white color.

The magic gate had been perfect and light burst forth from the magic gate, leaving behind a figure of a summoning beast. The wind stopped blowing and what was called was a reddish-orange ball, with the Mitsu Tomoe logo in red.

Falling into confusion as the one Emma called was just a pretty ball with the Mitsu Tomoe logo, they were not easy to understand what was happening, yet it was all missed as the floating ball started to move.

The hovering ball suddenly exploded and gave a huge expanse of mana blowing filled the room, this pressure enough to make Jell and Mai lift up.

The explosions stopped, Jell, Mai, and Emma who were protecting their eyes with their hands started to lower them and see what was happening.

What they see is a funny guy? An animal? Or Demon? They could only faintly see it, but their vision began to improve and realized that what Emma was calling was a Fox.

With a silver white fur, it has three long tails and has the Mitsu Tomoe symbol.

Seeing the apparition no one could react, with Jell still puzzled he made a sound.

“Kitsune..?”
