Chapter 42: DEPARTURE

Still at the same place, Eastern Castle of Titan Family. A new day, 06:00 morning.

Jack's already packaged his luggage. His include general needs for everyone, Tyas and Meyrlion. No wonder his goods are too many.

Most of Tyas's private goods are prepared by Mya. While Myerlion didn't think he needs to prepare anything.

Jack also had prepared his private stuff, including laptop and other geek stuff.

At first, Myerlion thought to give him a cart or wagon. Myerlion almost forgot that he could do mass teleportation now. So he changes his mind to bring a handcart.

Jack didn't mind it. Instead, he remembered, in the earth, Pioneers crossing the American West went the whole distance pushing a handcart, a distance of about 1300 miles.

Carts are the oldest form of man-made transport. They appear with the earliest traces of cities, pulled by many animals from dogs to humans, and from goats to horses. A handcart is probably the oldest form since all other types of carts require harness for the animal.

While Jack thought about the utility of the handcart, Meyrlion thought about the camouflage advantage by using handcart.

" This is the cheapest method to travel. Another might look down to us as poor people. But that's what we want. Are we still undercover, aren't we?

" Agree, Bro! No one may underestimate the utility of the handcart." Jack laughed.

Meyrlion nodded.

As for the clothes, everyone wore the same military uniform Jack found in his Section-C's warehouse. It was the 1976's lightweight Tropical Combat Dress Number 9, a common pattern used by the military unit from countries of south-east-Asian.

" This is cool. I like it" Meyrlion said. "But It will take too much public attention. We should wear camouflage above."

Then he gave mage styled fashion to Jack and Tyas.

" Yes, Bro. We also should hide our weird weapons too."

" An adventuring mage ought to dress this part. Wear the Mage Robe to get the look of a wise mage!" Myerlion chuckled while wearing that cloth ex on Tyas.

" They make this long robe of authentic-style woven cotton for a suitably rustic aesthetic." Myerlion talking to himself.

The mage robe has a lace-up neckline with black cording. Beneath the pointed packet, it pleats the front and back of the robe. Long, roomy sleeves round out the look.

" They made those mage cloaks of woven cotton." Myerlion talking to himself again.

These cloaks were the full length at the front and back, with its shortened sides ending at arm's length.

" Now, child, you still can easily move your hands for spell casting, sword-wielding or event shooting, can't you ?" Myerlion asked Tyas.

"Yes Papa!" She answered with a blooming smile.

Those mages style fashion was really a perfect disguise for hiding their weapons, moreover their identity.

" Now. Let's go to Magelang. Are you all ready ?" Myerlion asked.

" Ready, papa !" Tyas shouted.

Jack nodded while igniting his clove-cigarettes.

" Then, I'll proceed with the teleportation!"

Mya, Perak and the remains administer a perfect salute to set them off.

" Bye, everyone !"

" See you later !"

" Take care !"

Their figure vanished, along with their handcart.

Zapp !

And then appear out of nowhere, sixty-five thousand feet or around twenty kilometers from the Eastern Castle, on the direction toward the Capital City of Magelang.

Meyrlion repeated this teleportation again until reached the three counts.

" Well, let's take a rest." He said with breath panting. He looked sweaty, tired, and dozy. Then he fell on his knee.

Tyas immediately took a little bag from the handcart. The one she chooses was decent enough to become a pillow. Then she leads Meyrlion head to lie down in the ground with a temporary pillow.

Meyrlion just gave up and allowed her to do as she likes. He really felt weak and dizzy.

Jack chuckled. " It is ok to rest. Don't force your old bone, brother." He offers him his clove-cigarettes. "It would not be good for your health, forcing to overworked."

" I am still young, goddammit Jack! Look at my face! Can you see the honesty is written clearly on my face? This is how twenty years old youngster looks like!" Myerlion sneered at Jack while inhaling his cigarette smoke.

" I'm just run out of magical power. So does everyone. It is normal! That's it. " Meyrlion said.

Tyas and Jack laugh whole heartily.

" Here, take it" Jack gave him a cup of hot coffee he had prepared in his military bottle before.

"Thank you, Jack."

Slurp!

" I wonder, where are we now ?" Jack asked.

" I believe, we are in Forest of Crocodile Tear." Myerlion

Jack laughed. "Crocodile what? Is it dangerous?"

" I believe there are many mugger dwelling in this forest."

" That's bad news. Let's get moving." Jack frightened.

" Wait, wait, I still feel dizzy."

" Here, another cup. Quick, drink it !"

Half minutes later, their figure vanished, along with their handcart.

Zapp !

And then appear out of nowhere, sixty-five thousand feet or around twenty kilometers from the previous location, on the direction toward the Capital City of Magelang.

This time, Meyrlion could only be able to repeat this teleportation magic until reached the two counts.

He would fall to the ground if Tyas is not ready to catch his body.

" Thank's God, we are already at the outer gate of a town."

" What town is that, papa ?"

" It is Crocodile Tear Town, child."

Jack watched the town's gate and looked at Myerlion's condition.

" Please, take me to the inn. I really need a rest. This series teleportations are tiresome me."

" Alright, Bro. Let's find an inn for you. Do you have any reference?"

" Near the gate is located an inn named Asri Inn. It's Mother's favorite. Just tell them you are from Titan Family, son of Duchess Nindya and ask them the usual room. Show them our insignia, here, take it. As for the gatekeeper, just pay the toll fee, here.."

" Oke bro.."

Jack proceeds, do as Meyrlion said and everything looks smooth and fine.

Twenty-five minutes later, Meyrlion has snore on the bed's inn at the usual room.

It's still morning. Doing a long journey using teleportation was efficient and effective. The drawback is, it will put Meyrlion in hibernated for the rest of the day.

Jack used the rest of the day to teach Tyas some basic knowledge, such as simple mathematics. There are tons of fun material on his laptop to teach a monkey to learn to calculate. He used those all material to Tyas. Of course, all of them are still in Earth's script.

Just like a sponge absorbing the water, Tyas devour all lessons greedily. She's a person who thirsts of knowledge. She only needs a few hours to master the mathematics lesson up til equivalent to fourth-grade elementary school's lesson.

This made Jack happy.
