OTHER WORLD CHILD SYSTEM
Chapter 17: Report to the Chief of Settlements

“My new friend, Mr. Tole.“ Giya smiled. “Include this is Mr. Tole, front gate keeper Rain Settlement.“

Mr. Tole immediately smiled and extended his hand intending to get acquainted with Isander.

Isander's hand took the old man's hand in front of him and shook his hand. “My name isander Liam. Greetings, Mr. Tole.“

“Greetings know too,” said Mr. Tole with his friendly smile.

Pak Tole's appearance looks like a 40-year-old parent and has 3 children who began to step into adolescence and adulthood. Fine lines had already appeared on some parts of his face, the corners of his eyes and cheeks.

A few seconds seeing Mr. Tole, Isander did not feel the hostility of the man in front of him. On the contrary, this Mr. Tole is very friendly to him.

“Is this cute girl your child?“ Mr. Tole's eyes had been sidetracked by Meisya who was carried by Isander.

“Yes, this is my son.“ Isander nodded and smiled slightly.

“Alright, Mr. Tole. We have to go inside and tell the settlement chairman about my friend's arrival.“

“Oke, hope you and your son feel at home here.“ Mr. Tole gave the entrance and let Isander and Giya go inside.

“Thank you.“

A smile is shown by Isander, and a slightly lowered body, Isander's respectful form to the older person.

As soon as Isander went inside, he saw several wooden houses standing in some parts of the settlement.

There are dirt trails resulting from grass that is cut straight to become a path of people who connect one house to another.

This settlement reminds Isander of the village in the zombie game, more precisely the game where humans contracted the virus so that it became a monster with the main character of a blonde throwing man.

In the middle of this settlement there is a slightly larger house building and a large enough vacant land, enough to be used to play children.

Along the way, Isander saw many people coming out of the house. Men, women, and small children came out and watched themselves with Giya go to the house in the middle of a grassy empty field.

“Agter Giya is with whom? Is that the person who has the power too?“

“The man who carried the little boy? Is that her partner and that child is Agter Giya's son?“

“This guy is so handsome! I like it!“

“I think we are increasing members, this settlement is getting crowded.“

“The little girl that the man was carrying was so cute, her big eyes looked curious!“

“…”

Isander's ears moved, he could hear all the chattering of the people in this settlement. Isander was completely unmoved and only smiled to give off a friendly impression.

Meisya from the beginning saw the appearance of the settlement was very curious and curious about what was inside the wall that had large wooden spines.

The location of this settlement is rather close to rice fields and former residential areas before the destruction of the Earth. Isander and Giya pass through several areas that contain ruins of settlements. Houses made of wall walls, buildings made of cement, and all the buildings that existed before the destruction occurred turned into ruins.

The ruins are told by Giya former village or village in Bogor Regency.

Rain Settlement is still included in the Bogor Regency.

The forest here is not so dense and there are many trees, there are only a few spots that have large trees.

Geck! Geck! Geck!

Giya knocked on the door of this wooden house with her hands several times, then the door opened, the figure of a long white-haired old man came out of the house.

“Halo, Mr. Ghandi Sudarsa. I'm here to report that there are people who want to stay in this settlement for some time,” said Giya who directly discussed about her arrival.

“New people?“ Mr. Ghandi turned his head slowly to the man standing next to Giya. “Sign in, we're talking about inside the house.“

“Good.“

After that, they all entered into a wooden house that looked solid.

In this house there are several chairs to sit and a wooden table made sober.

The interior of the house is very minimalist, there are some items such as glass cups and plastic cups that are used as wall displays. The total house is divided into 3 rooms, consisting of 1 living room, room space, and kitchen space. Everything here has a traditional system, whether it's cooking or something else.

“Please sit!“ pinta The old man to Giya and Isander. The old man sat on one of the chairs facing several chairs.

The two sat in the opposite seat, and next to each other. Meisya sat on Isander's lap. This little girl was silent and not babbling. He was still curious about what he saw.

Mr. Ghandi glanced at Isander for a moment and said, “Include yourself, Nak.“

“My name isander Liam and this is my son, Meisya Adira Nella.“ Isander sat down casually and revealed his name and the long name Meisya.

Upon hearing this, Mr. Ghandi nodded. “You want to stay here?“

“Yes, I need a place to rest for some time.“ Isander had no doubts about his choice.

“If you want to stay here, you must also contribute to this settlement.“ Mr. Ghandi has a serious face. “Everyone here works together for a living, nothing is free in this world. Therefore, are you able to provide services for this settlement?“

No need to rush to answer, Isander was silent for a moment and asked, “Give services, what does it mean to take part in duty in one of the jobs here?“

“True, Son. You have to go hunting or you help keep this settlement, you can also go to be a cook in this settlement. A lot of work here, you are free to choose to be anything, as long as you have a contribution to advance this settlement,” explained Mr. Ghandi as he looked at Isander. “Unless you are an Agter, you can freely stay here.“

“Pak Ghandi, Isander is actually an Agter,” chirps Giya on Pak Ghandi.

Mr. Ghandi's eyes were wide in shock, and then he lowered his head and said, “Sorry, Agger Isander. I thought you were an ordinary man. Forgive my sassy attitude.“

“Not why. Then, I'll make this settlement better. If you need help, Mr. Ghandi can come to me,” Isander said with a familiar facial expression and sounded trustworthy.

“Thank you, Agter Isander.“ Mr. Ghandi changed his attitude to be more respectful and polite.

From this scene, Isander quickly became aware of the position of Agter so respected by ordinary people in this world, like artists and celebrities in a peaceful world.

“Agter Isander can stay at home next to the house of Agter Giya. Supposedly, Agter Giya knew the place,” Pak Ghandi told Isander's residence.

Giya responds with a nod, she knows the house called by Mr. Ghandi.

After chatting a few words and in a short time, the two came out of the house of the Chief of Settlement Pak Ghandi and walked towards the south of the settlement.

The inhabitants of this settlement who were working on food and making goods from wood, all looked at Isander and Giya. Interested in the figure of Isander and Meisya.

There was chatter between them, heard talking about Isander. Not far from being talked about the figure of Isander who looks strong and handsome.

Soon, Isander and Giya arrive at Isander's wooden house.

Giya goes inside to see how comfortable this house is. As a result, this house is quite the same shape and facet with the house occupied by Giya himself. Feels comfortable and safe. The size is 25 square meters, fairly small, but it is enough to be occupied by 1 adult and 1 small child.

To the left of this house is Giya's house, to the left is Giya's friend's house. Meanwhile, across from Isander's house, Giya, his friend is a row of residents of the settlement here.

Naturally empty, the people who filled the house had the task of hunting and foraging. They're outside the settlement.

“Isander, I stayed here for only 2 days. After that, I will go to the mountain to hunt monsters again. You want to come or stay here and mingle with the people in this settlement?“
