System: Daily login!!, jackpot on the first day!!!

Sometime after that, everyone finally dispersed because it was already quite late, and they still had things to do the next day, so they had to get enough rest, as did Gaia and Taufik; after the others had left, they both also returned to their rooms.

On the balcony of their room, which directly faces the sea, Taufik sits looking at the vast expanse of the sea shining, reflecting the light of the moonlight; sitting on his lap is Gaia, who has her arms around Taufik's neck.

The two of them sat in silence for a while, their figures bathed in the moonlight were like something out of a painting, if beauty had an incarnation it would probably be the two of them, the cold night wind was no problem for them, and the feeling of flatulence was not a common thing for two high-level beings like them, that night they both seemed to just want to stay awake and enjoy each other's presence until the sun rose again.

"... So, tomorrow?"

Gaia said, breaking the silence between the two of them.

"Yes, it's tomorrow"

Taufik answered briefly, and after that, silence returned for a while before Taufik said something again.

"... Will you hate me, Gaia?"

Hearing that, Gaia looked at Taufik, and the two of them then looked at each other, Gaia's gaze seemed to absorb all the courage in Taufik, which made him immediately look away from Gaia, seeing this, Gaia smiled warmly, both of her hands held both sides of Taufik's cheeks, then brought Taufik to return to looking at her, with the same smile Gaia then said.

"... Honey, Why should I hate you? For what reason? There's nothing; There's no reason that I have which will make me hate you; my life these several years was nothing but happiness; why should I hate you? Is it because you're going to leave me and Aksa? No, in the first place, it's me who forced myself to be with you... Back then, what I told you about the vision of the future that I saw was just one of the infinite possibilities that would happen, but I saw happiness there, I saw the future where I smiled more than I used to, the future where I have a real Family like what I want to, that's what made me dare to do that, and it's true that I was happy, I was very happy right now, so why should I hate you? Tell me, Honey, why should I hate you?"

Ask Gaia, the question 'Why Should I hate you?' that Gaia asked repeatedly was like a blow to Taufik's heart; in his view, no lies were emanating from Gaia's eyes, only sincerity.

But that only made it even harder for Taufik to look Gaia straight in the eye until he had to look away again while speaking with a complicated expression.

"... I don't know, I just felt that maybe I wouldn't feel so guilty if you ended up hating me later; maybe that's just another selfishness of mine; it is what I felt is Wrong?"

Hearing Taufik's words, Gaia's eyes became glazed, but not long after that, a beautiful chuckle was heard in Taufik's ears; Taufik turned towards Gaia, but what he saw was only Gaia who was going to hug him.

Taufik was a little confused by Gaia's sudden movement, but Gaia's next words made Taufik's confusion immediately disappear.

"... If it would make you feel better, then, should I hate you?"

Hearing that, for some reason Taufik felt a little uneasy in his heart, which made him immediately answer Gaia's question.

"No, I also don't want you to hate me..."

"What? Honey, you are more complicated than a woman's heart, I don't know anymore"

"I know, I also felt like I'm not me, I know *Sigh* forget that; is there anything I can do for you? Anything you want"

"No, Nothing, just let me like this, Let me enjoy everything about you so that I will never forget even if hundreds of years have passed, for now, let me be like this"

Said Gaia while still hugging Taufik with all her heart.

"... You know there's another way for you to be able to enjoy everything about me instead of something like this"

Hearing that, Gaia let go of her hug, then with both hands on Taufik's shoulders, Gaia looked at Taufik with a confused look. She asks in a tone so innocent that it even sounds fake.

"... There is?"

"... I don't know if you really don't know or are just pretending not to know, but yes, there is"

"How?"

Gaia asked in the same tone as before, but now both corners of her mouth rose as if teasing; seeing this, Taufik's eyes narrowed, and then he said.

"... You bad women, and you know, bad women always receive punishment... And I will personally punish you!"

With that, Taufik immediately stood up which surprised Gaia.

"... Huh?! What are you trying to do? Where are you going to take me?!"

"We're going to the place where I'm going to punish you, you better prepare yourself!!"

"Nooo~ Ahaha~"

"There's no mercy for you!!"

"Nooo~"

# A/H - "... What did you expect?"

--------

- The next day.

The first thing Taufik does when he is done with his night 'activity' with Gaia, even when the sun is still not showing, is to free Zeus and the others from the False World.

Even though it hadn't been two years as stated in the agreement between him and Hades, if not now, then Zeus and the others would be trapped in the False World for who knows how long, so after his morning activities, he released his False World technique that had trapped Zeus and the others.

The Wave of Memories hit Taufik's head the moment after he released his technique; this time, receiving an abundance of memories at one time was no longer a problem for Taufik because of his photographic Memories.

In just a few seconds, Taufik had learned what had happened to his clone while he was in the False World, all of it without exception, even the smallest detail did not escape his Photographic Memory Skill, and there were some memories that Taufik would rather not bring up or even better to just forget, the main thing was that the memories involved Hestia in them.

'... *Sigh* What the f*cking hell that me... Him... I do to the Goddess Hestia?!... At least I don't have to worry about Zeus' revenge soon'

Taufik said inwardly, that he was not worried about Zeus who might look for him for revenge because, from the Memories he Received from his Clone, the condition of Zeus and the others except Hestia were in a condition that was more than worse and it would take them a very long time for them to recover all their strength, so it would take a very long time for them to be able to take revenge, of course, that revenge could only happen if they could find this island where Saranjana was located.

What Taufik was a little worried about was that when he returned to the future, by then, Zeus and the others would have more or less returned to their prime, but yes, he had locked them up once and Taufik could do it again.

--------

In the heart of the Saranjana kingdom where the Tree of Life is located, Taufik is standing right under the tree with one palm pressed against the trunk of the great Tree of Life.

So far, the Tree of Life, which has functioned as a container that holds Mana so that the Barrier surrounding the Saranjana Kingdom continues to work, uses Mana transfer from Taufik which will be concentrated inside the tree to attract Mana around, but all of this time, Taufik has only transferred his Mana to the tree once and it will last for five years to be refilled, but now because Taufik will be gone for a very, very long time, no one has as much pure Mana as Taufik in the Saranjana kingdom, so Taufik will make a special Core for the tree, actually there is a possibility for Taufik to be able to change Mathilda who is a spirit from the Tree of Life to become one of his kin, but Taufik is not sure if it is good to combine a spirit with a Vampire, so Taufik prefers the safe path of making a special Core for the Tree of Life.

A special Core made from his pure Mana amplification, which functions to continue to attract Mana around and does not need to be refilled.

Taufik already had in mind how the Core would look and what its function would be, the rest was just making it real, which was the easiest stage of using his Imagination Magic.

But before Taufik could do that, Mathilde approached him.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty The Queen is here"

Mathilda said. The area around the World Tree has become a sacred area; even just to enter requires several checks first before getting permission.

"... Tell her to come in"

Said Taufik. Without saying anything else, Mathilda then bowed to Taufik and immediately left.

Shortly after Mathilda left, Gaia came.

"... Honey, are you done with anything you've done? If then, let's go eat breakfast"

"Just wait a little bit more... Where's Aksa?"

"He's already there with Father, it's only you left"

"Okay, I'll be there in minutes, you can go first if you want"

"No, I'll wait here"

"... Do as you Like"

After Taufik said that, he continued his activities with Gaia looking at him from behind in silence.

And as Taufik said, it only took him a little time to create the Core, and a little more time to infuse the Core into the Tree of Life and connect.

After all that was done, Taufik and Gaia went together to the dining room to eat breakfast together for the last time, which would probably only happen again in a very long time.
