Chapter 30: Call me Doctor
Actually, I don't want to leave Talulah and Alina. seeing Talulah who is crying bitterly, makes me so heartless but if she continues to rely on me in literally everything, Talulah will not develop.
I paid for Talulah and Alina's education and taught them all the knowledge they needed to learn until they became model students in Ursus, despite Talulah being an Ursus noble and Alina being a commoner.
I've taught Alina to be a good mother, a good mental and emotional support while I taught Talulah to be a good leader, good at negotiating and judging someone in terms of character, actions, and others.
But seeing the two of them continue to sob in front of my photo made me tear up. It was like seeing my father and mother crying for me when I died, yet I didn't cry when they died before, making me question my humanity even more.
I can't help but let them go. if I hold them too much like Tiamat Fate, then they can't flap their own wings. I only need to watch them from afar.
"Edward, I'm sorry. This is for Talulah's future. I want her to learn that sometime you lose something to get something better in the future"
We went to Victoria, and I told the shadows of Talulah and Alina to watch over them.
I became a doctor as usual, Kal'tsit became a cleric, and Koshelna became a consultant in terms of development, politics, and some infrastructure things that I taught directly and Koshelna's experience as my secretary was quite good.
I am now wearing a doctor's hood just like the Arknight protagonist but without Babel or Rhodes Island.
Why am I wearing this? It's all because of my carelessness. I didn't expect that the power of the universe would be as simple as I expected. I tried to create a small ball of supernovae to blow up the factory but unexpectedly, my body was directly hit by cosmic radiation.
All my power seemed to vanish. I was badly injured and almost die if not for God saving me. Universe power is not something to play with. once you harness it, you are practically a 4D being, but when just curiosity arose, this happened.
"Why did you try that?" I listened to God, and to be honest, I don't know, I thought I could harness supernovae, yet I almost died because of it.
"I was curious, but after that curiosity, I realized I was childish. I should have adapted first and learned to control myself. God, you already knew this would happen, punish me for my undoing. I don't mind that I lost all my power; this is worth my sin, my stupidity, and my lack of control." Admitting mistakes and stupidity doesn't make you weak or pathetic. it is the real feeling, experience, and maturity.
"I forgive you, for now you must learn to control. Here, I lighten your burden." I felt my body being remodeled again by God, but I knew I had to accept it.
I look at my appearance, which is none other than the Safer Sephiroth Dissidia version without wings and a halo, and it seems pretty cool to me.
"I left Hyperthymesia, Planet Communication, Unstoppable Fortress and then adapted cosmic energy that merged with godly energy from the Eternicore, that is your nerfed Marshal Form." So this is Marshal Form, Safer Sephiroth, Neat.
I knelt down and prostrated myself before God, my head touching directly to this white ground.
"Thank you for all your help and all your mercy are your generosity to me." God then gave me a costume similar to that of Doctor Arknight.
"The costume will withstand the cosmic radiation that you produce. you should never take it off if you with other people. the costume is easy to wash just rinse it with water and it will immediately clean itself." I nodded in my prostration, because if people are exposed to cosmic radiation, then they will experience quite dangerous climax in literal sense.
"Are there any drawbacks or benefits that I need to worry about ?" I was really curious about that because it was very important in the life.
"Sanity for Planet Communication, but the benefit you get is that Terra will help you fully. Unstoppable Fortress is slightly nerfed, especially counter attacks, so you can only parry and block, but your parry and block are perfect. for Hyperthymesia, you have a slight drawback, which is that it drains quite a lot of strength and energy you have. try not to force yourself, remember what you need to remember" I think it's reasonable, the Doctor also needs sanity in Lore, and the reason I need sanity is because of battlefield reasons.
"Thank you for the relief" My body returned to Terra and Terra was very happy with Rain welcoming making this rain even heavier when my feet step down in very place i vanish. I can feel this is a cry of happiness that is quite soothing to the heart.
"Thank you for worrying about me." Now that I am in the clinic taking care of some prescriptions and making my own sanity medicine, my body's limitations are always tested here. Sometimes I would have neglected to take medication if it weren't for Kal'tsit who reminded me.
Kal'tsit and Koshelna wondered what was going on with me, I just told them that I was just experiencing an illness that I didn't want to talk about.
Kal'tsit wanted to help me, but I suggested not to. I wanted Kal'tsit to make this sanity medicine for me, and then Koshelna helped me with the paperwork.
I told them the limits of my body, which surprised them greatly, and I begged them.
"Don't ever open my hood until i say so, no matter how curious you are. it's for your own good, and I beg you to listen to me for once." They both nodded, I couldn't see their emotions, so I just assumed they would listen to me.
Kal'tsit now goes to Vincent Manor, while Koshelna goes to Dublin Manor to tutor those two, Eblana and Reed in Tarran management she say.
I sit here thinking again about what I want. in the year 1084, Theresa should invite Kal'tsit to build Kazdel, I went out and saw a Sarkaz who kidnapped me.
I ordered Terra to leave a message to Kal'tsit and Koshelna that I was in Kazdel.
I was released and found myself in Kazdel's palace. I saw Theresa, who opened my gag.
"I apologize for the unwelcome invitation. Was your journey here comfortable?" Theresa smiled and I got up from this chair.
"Thank you for the invitation without notice. now what favor do you want from me, your majesty king Theresa ?" Theresa then took me to a room that was quite private. Theresa heard that I was a great doctor from Victoria because some Sarkaz people report to Theresa that they want me to be a doctor for Kazdel.
"Well, I will help you, Your Highness Theresa." And so began our project. I helped Theresa in the field of medicine, which made many Sarkaz people and even the Kazdel Royal Court recognize my talent.
Kal'tsit came and was surprised to see me casually helping the health of the Sarkaz. Kal'tsit helped myself with research and rebuilding Kazdel.
Until one day, Theresa, Kal'tsit, and I had a brainstorm that was enough to make me really test my limits to the point where Theresa trusted us too much.
"Valtor, this is bad because some Sarkaz people don't like interruptions from people other than Sarkaz, plus Theresa, who sighs and i don't want to comment" I stroked Kal'tsit's head gently, making Kal'tsit even more excited about wagging her tail.
"I know, long or not, this will creating civil war between Theresis and Theresa." Kal'tsit then sat on my lap and looked at the mirror of her face on my mask.
"Unfortunately, your power disappeared due to the explosion. I also don't blame you for the carelessness you showed, but there are no perfect beings here. I learned from you that if I am careless, I might lose you even if you lose me." I pinched Kal'tsit's cheek, which was very adorable. Kal'tsit growled and Koshelan contacted us.
"Oy! You're making out without me while I'm here taking care of two girls who are giving me a headache!" Kal'tsit giggled, put her arms around me and kissed my helmet.
"I will eat Valtor, goodbye." Kal'tsit shut down the communication link then delete Koshelna contact from our communication device and then Kal'tsit looked at me pleadingly to only look at her.
"Theresa" Kal'tsit immediately jumped off my lap then Theresa entered by looking at us. who were having a discussion making Theresa smile then joining us in the discussion.
After 1 year of development, we got an interesting thing, Closure became our assistant in terms of communication and computerization with Theresa's leadership in the country making Kazdel begin to build.
Theresis is still doing protection outside Kazdel, which is literally Kazdel's security field and military but I think that after some harassment that the Sarkaz race got, Theresis will change his mindset.
"Doctor, I need your help" I approached Closure and helped with some technology and some research done by Kal'tsit which made us more excited.
"Doctor, can I have a moment with you?" I followed Theresa to the balcony where we could both see Kazdel that almost rebuild one by one.
"I know who you are but judging by your history here. I am convinced, You have no intention of destroying Terra, do you?" I looked at Theresa who was standing in front of me with such a gentle gaze.
"Civilight Eterna, a crown that holds all the history of Terra in the past. Good art for you. you've seen the history of the Sarkaz Race with that crown, right?" Theresa nodded and then I looked up at the sky which was beautiful at night and full of stars.
"Then can you help with the discrimination going on in the Sarkaz race?" I thought for a moment that the history of Sarkaz and the behavior of the non-Sarkaz toward Sarkaz population were a source of great trouble plus Sarkaz's affinity with Oripathy made this even worse.
"It will take a long time, many of the Sarkaz race mentally cannot accept discrimination. some seek justice others seek vengeance. That is the reality now, Your Majesty" Theresa approached me and I reflexively stepped back making Theresa surprised to see my behavior
"I apologize, King Theresa. I am honored to be approached by you, but I must be professional." Theresa giggles and gets closer to me. I dodge and move away from her.
"Take it easy, Valtor? Sephiroth or doctor ? Which nickname do you want ?" I was still being approached casually by Theresa but my intuition told me there was something wrong.
"Then call me Doctor" Theresa smiled softly but my instincts screamed. Run, Valtor, run.
"I understand, come here Doctor" I immediately ran away because I got a really bad feeling. I can't read emotions if I can read them then it's not like this.
"Oh my, I missed the chance. I wonder if what Kal'tsit said is true. That guy is from another universe." Theresa then smiled sweetly and went back to her room.
While I immediately locked my room, double locking, holding it with a chair and others.
"I have to be careful tomorrow" because I have to think for a moment. The black crown is a good discovery for me, especially in the artificial database. A black crown, Terra said, is the creation of an ancient civilization, which is the same as the creation of Kal'tsit, just with the purpose of recording history. just like a reminder in a nutshell, but I don't want to deep down into this because it's not time yet.
I also wonder about Theresa's behavior. logically, Sarkaz should be a chaotic being in lore wise and historical wise, but Theresa is the opposite of it. Maybe the Black Crown altered her personality or maybe seeing the past history of the Black Crown for too long made Theresa have a high sense of empathy. Question for another day.

Kal'tsit Journal
I met with Heidi and Mr. Vincent to discuss various things, especially Heidi, who seemed to be interested in me in terms of romance for her novel.
But behind that, Heidi only brought a message from the King of Kazdel, Theresa. After finishing the problem in Victoria, I went to Kazdel with Theresa's invitation.
Theresa is friendly and understanding, and I'm happy to be by her side as if she's my friend, except that bird.
I told her that Theresa could rely on Valtor to build Kazel and I told her that Valtor's background and even our adventures all impressed Theresa, and even Theresa was very complimentary of Valtor's ideas, courage, and all forms of achievements but what was unfortunate of all was that an accident happened to Valtor.
Theresa felt sorry for Valtor's condition. Valtor's glory, power, and achievement vanished instantly. only the mistake that Valtor made made him now literally disabled.
Theresa will make our work easier with people like Closure, who I admit is quite good at computers and Sarkaz who has some talents.
Now you don't have to act alone Valtor, we'll help you. More precisely, you'll help us together.
Notes: Koshelna, stuck in Tarran, makes me very happy, even though she tried to go to Kazdel but the turmoil in Victoria made her unable to move.
I have Valtor for myself, Koshelna. You're stuck in that country FOREVER AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
