Arc 1 - Chapter 5: Platon - Birth of new mind
"The factory is here. Becareful Higeki, the workers may look souless and lifeless but their desire still there, WORLD would pay millions for your life afterall."
"That much ?"
"If one of their small organization join in this hunt it mean that the news of your return to this world is known by a lot of person now."
"I am not worry that much, you will protect me after all, not because i kept your life in my hand, it is because i believe you are not one of them and you truly look for my return."
"I won't fail you, i gave my life to you afterall. I will prove to you my loyalty so just believe in me and let me handle everything."
All the factories in Altoris is located in the West of the center, the factories produce all type of production that used in Altoris, the reason for me to be here is the fact that all factory in Altoris is connected and it connect to WORLD's headquarter through an underground tunnel system. These underground tunnel system is seprated from the underground train system of the Savant since Savant know if they construct the underground train system to this area, everything will collapse and innocent people will be injured.
"The easiest factory to infiltrate should be the Yamato food factory, it also have the most connection to every other factory. The food factory also have the lowest security but the scene would be well, i can only say it will not be suitable for eye view."
The food factory look nothing different from a steel giant open its giant maw for people to walk in, other infiltrate road should be on the roof top of the factory. To reach there, there is a lot of maintanance ladder still being placed around the factory, on the rooftop there are still some worker working on maintanance of this facility. Food factory have to divided section one of them work on making food for the worker and the other section is the food for the upperclass. Two sections have different working condition, while the food section for the upperclass is clean and prepared with care the section for worker disgust me.
"Never surprise to me how disgusting this place can be. You alright ?"
"I will hold my feeling, let's get through this section quick. The design of this place is not really help with supporting my emotion."
The building's color is mainly green, the ground is clean which is a wierd thing but the answer soon to be reveal that the leftover of the food process for the upperclass is used for the lower class. But nothing here more than the feeling of disgust toward all these upperclass people but to say the right thing, the food made in here also provide for high-end worker so there is nothing is truly equal, people still have hope but they use that hope to move forward while look down on other. People's pride and envy can be motivation but they are also the worst part inside them.
"I remember a part of the history, a conductor named Orchust. He used to be considered as the one who can bring salvation to the world, liberate people from their sins."
"He also the one who control everyone, made them follow his will like a puppeteer, a true conductor."
"You seem to know a lot about him."
"You may say that, i am not a fan of his way of acting but his song, they are truly beautiful."
Orchust, a talented musician and most of all, his way of appear on the stage as a conductor, people who live passing on tales about the conductor who made everyone act on his will. They don't know that is pure harmony or pure pressure put on them made them act in the way he wanted but they all know a fact that the day he gone, the world lost its "harmony" and the chaos begin. People started to drain this planet, using all of its resources for their own purpose, people despite themselves and divided into classes.
"What Orchust bring is not harmony, that is just his selfish will to shape the world the way he wanted, I will never forgive for someone who force his will on other, yes i admire his talent but only his talent."
"But i remember you said his time was glorious."
"Yes, glorious to him, everything around him is colorless, there is no color or freedom. Only a place to bring art to himself, i want the true freedom and true harmony, it may be an unrealistic dream but i did that once, i believe i can do that again."
People's nature have sins and virtues, there isn't any way to erase sins but sins can become motivation, envy can make people want to keep up with the one better than them. Same for pride, pride can be used to make the one thought they are at the finish line try harder. Other sins is motivation and virtues can help them to balance it once it cross the line, people's nature is unpredicted and their own sins and virtues has to be controlled on their own. But it's the setting of this society that making their despair and vainity goes above everything else, the world influence on it is far too great.
"Despair is a part of sorrow and from sorrow you can be sympathy for each other and most of all because of despair we want to find hope, but the setting of this world let despair mix in with vanity and from that there is no hope can exist."
"So how can you recover it ?"
"You may not know but i am a musician, to bring hope and emotion to people is a part of our job."
We reached the underground tunnel of the food factory, the underground is different, the station is much more clean and everything around is modern different from the ruined world above. Developed by WORLD themselves in order to travelling easier between the WORLD's command center and other factories but there is some special protocol for travelling from a factory to the command center. And it is not an option to travel along the railway if you want to live a few more years, it seem like the visiting of the command center to one of the factories is random.
"Anything you can do?"
"Why not, i am his grandson, everything is possible as long as we wait. (Tomoe, can i use your power ?)"
"(To cloak yourself... you can do that but it will exhausting."
"(Not really the first thing i worry about, just long enough to cloak us to get on the train.)"
"(Then you can do that spell just fine.)"
Water can be used to trick the light, bending it and erase your image, every power, every magic has its own usage, but beyond that is the mind of the user to bend it the way they want and invent something new. An artist never bound himself with something limited to the world and rule, there are rules then there will be a way to breakthrough it. The train we looking for soon arrive, cloaked ourselves in water we enter the train the moment it opens its gate and carefully dodge WORLD's elite. Now is just the problem with wait and find a way to hide from them on the train.
"Why command center still make stupid command making us going on these meaningless scout, just a waste of time."
"Calm down, it is our job and beside, it still have great payment at least enough to stay alive in the city."
"Hey Landros, you never told me which area you staying in ?"
"Me ? The east."
"Much better than our side and hey the least damaged area from Nomad book club attack."
"They attacked your area ?"
"They attack the headquarter but our area is attacked by Oroshi clan so thing still in chaos now even most of the problem is solved, you still live alone right Landros ?"
"Yes, anything you need ?"
"Can I come, staying in the west now feeling like strapping yourself in a fire lake."
"Alright then, but do you have anyone going with you ?"
"No, like you i am living alone."
"Okay, can i move to your place tomorrow ?"
"I guess it fine."
So not just the worker and the small organization have a choice, it seem like even people live in the city have their own thing to worry about. In a world where everyone have to thrive for living, the fear of tomorrow, submission to fate and feeling like your life on the edge of the cliff happen to everyone then who is the one benefit, director of factories or those who leading WORLD. The ruined world gave birth to ruined ideology, nothing more than a cycle of pain... is this a part of sympathy, a virtue ?
"There is someone else on this train Landros."
"You think that too ?"
"I can sense them, they are close to us, i may say they are just a few step from us."
"An cognition is not something everyone can get and only avaiable to our organization... how about we go to the city Ivarna, our job today is complete and we need to move your stuff to my place."
"Have never seen you talk so much before but alright."
So they choose to move to the city, any train after used will be cleanse so the next station for us will be the city, not like anyone can get in there that easily and getting out is not something really easy either. The train reached the city and we also have to get out of it, Landros and Ivarna is not out greatest concern now but watching the city, different from the slum, the city is beautiful, colorful light and everything about is amazing, not as great as the nomad library but they look fine. Now to get some information then get out of this city.
"Even live in a place like this most of the people in here suffer somthing, they fear they cannot pay for their own living, fear of being homeless banish to the slum. And then the hatred focus on them, for those who live here so long, being banished to the slum is a certain death."
"Everyday people have to fight for their own lives, even live in the city or live in the slum, everyone want to live. And when they live they became adapted to that place, they can't leave because it will cause them great pain. So can i create new hope for this world, i felt so lost after seeing people mind toward themselves."
"I don't see why not, you are a musician after all, use your talent, change their heart."
"But can i do that, can i realy do that."
"No need to put doubt on your own mind like that, like you said, you are talented don't worry too much about it. The only we need to worry about is a place for you to perform, a place where everyone can hear you even the slum or the city."
"And i need to write my own song, i can't use something from Or, i have to make my own melody, to move people's will, unite them for a better future."
"Now that's hope i want to see from you, you are so kind, passionate and most of all, sympathy to everyone but i think we need to get out this surrounding first."
"You right, let's show them what we got, you take care of the fighting, i will cover you."
"Sound like a good plan."
With even better equipment provided by Pi and Omicron we can escape easily out of the surrounding by the security of the city but they would send the new to WORLD's headquarter of all of this incident so we should have less then a few hours to escape. After that conversation on the train of Landros and Ivarna i know the west have some security problem, that could be our only way to escape.
"Hey Boss, seem to be some trouble for you."
"I never you do field work Theta."
"I need some "fresh air" you know, beside Gamma, Delta and me are the best agents of our organization."
"What about Rho ?"
"He good at his job but he doesn't have a style to it. Not like us, Delta and me are cheerful people while the ice prince is Gamma."
"Alright, then how can we get out or get in again next time ?"
"Simple, Alpha and Beta already thought of this, cognative filter and identification for the city entry for both of you is ready. Just try not to race for the wanted criminal level on the chart, i want to stay high on that chart for a while."
Theta is kind of naughty and michievious child, not killed anyone yet but he cause a lot of event around the city that disturb peace. We soon left the city and goes to the slum, the place is just rural but for now live in the slum is not really bad, at least we can still live in grandfather's house for a while. For other thing we need, just go in the city, let live here for a while, we have song to make and places to find.
