The 1.000 year Great Sage ---> COMPLETED STORY

Early in the morning, Seya and his friends were having breakfast. Gaya called Seya, saying that his guests arrived at the Meeting Room.

- Gaya, can you tell them to meet me in my Laboratory? I don't want the people living here, to hear my plan.

- …||… Yes, Father. Can I also go to that meeting with everyone? …||…

- I don't see why not. It will also show those Humans, what Magic can accomplish.

- …||… Cool! Thanks, Father! …||…

They quickly finished and went straight to Seya's Laboratory. In there, Seya explained his plan for the afternoon. He showed them his notes that he made last night with his friends and changed or included some parts, that Master Eridan and the others, suggested. He warned and asked politely, for King Barunger to not act before thinking and to leave his battle-axe behind. Humans could get scared by seeing a strong Dwarf in front of them, harmed with such a big axe. Barunger frowned but agreed. They spent the entire morning, making plans and fine-tuning their answers, trying to predict every possible outcome.

…

After lunch, they were all gathered in front of the television, watching the Representatives of each country, arriving at the headquarters of the United Nations. Sometime later, the meeting started, with the U.N. President making his introductory speech. One hour later, the Representatives were still making their speech at the central podium. One by one, they spoke. Some of them were agreeing to a deeper interaction with the people on the other side of the Gateway Arch, while others didn't want to have anything to do with it. One Representative, in particular, worried Seya from the very moment he started to speak, with an angry look towards the Japanese Representative.

- … I am not saying or implying that Japan as more influence than they should have, on this matter. I am just pointing out the fact that the Great Sage from the Ariansyl World, offered to the Japanese Prime Minister a sword to be delivered to the Japanese Emperor, together with his offer of loyalty and friendship. One could think that Japan had contact with them previously, what for sure could explain the most recent technological advancements in Japan. That could be more easily explained if they used Magic, instead of intense research over the last years, as the Japanese Government told to everyone in the World over these past few years.

Some clapping and some booing sounds followed his words. Seya frowned.

- This doesn't look good…

Little Aria was also frowning.

- Yeah… Are you sure about this?

Seya got up and signalled Titania to accompany him. He opened a Gateway to the United Nations near the Representative that was starting to speak again. Seya covered his head with the hood at the exact moment that the Representative was looking in the direction of the light made by the appearance of the Gateway. He opened his mouth in surprise, but before he could say anything, Seya warned him.

- Do you mind shutting up your mouth before you say more stupidities? How in the World were you chosen by your country to represent your people in this honourable institution? I know that a politician doesn't need to be exceptionally smart to do their work, but do you have to be so stupid?

Seya crossed the Gateway and the Representative stepped back, afraid of a man dressed in a dark Robe and carrying a Staff with a bright blue Crystal on top. Seya turned back to the Secretary-General that was seated in a high balcony.

- Secretary-General, if I could be authorized to address the Representatives, I could perhaps relive every one of some misunderstandings or doubts that they may have. In return, I would only ask for a guarantee that me or any of my guests that I will bring to help me explain, won't suffer any kind of attack from the security guards that are here. As soon as I crossed this Gateway, I saw two of them grabbing their guns and they are still pointing them to me. Not that they could do anything with it, but the sound of gunshots and my reaction to that stupidity, will for sure create a huge mess and we won't accomplish anything today. As everyone for sure saw, when a Japanese soldier shot his gun against me it didn't work, and I just took all the weapons, trucks, and tanks that they had.

The Secretary-General stood up and he looked seriously at Seya.

- For sure you understand that arriving in the way that you did, the security guards are just having the obvious reaction. If you wanted to come, you could follow the proper channels.

- Yeah, like I could do that from where I came from… I guess I could have asked the Japanese Prime Minister to take me here, but that could also lead to more suspicions among the Representatives. Like this one, over here.

The Secretary-General looked to where Seya was pointing with his thumb and he could clearly see the Representative turning bright red in anger.

- I see your point… I guess you can be allowed to talk, as long as you came in peace. Because your sudden visit, for sure doesn't pay in your favour.

- Yes, I truly apologise for that. The fact is that I was watching this meeting over the television and I have already prepared everything yesterday, as soon as I heard your spokesperson announce this meeting today. I have also some guests in my World, waiting on the other side of this Gateway. In a moment, I will ask them to join me, so that they can help me clarify everything.

- Very well, I am also curious about what you want to say. Unless any of the Representatives are opposing. Not you, we all know that you will oppose. Fortunately for us, a majority vote is what rules us, not a single person.

The Representative that was near Seya closed his mouth immediately and he remained where he was, looking at Seya. Seya pointed with his hand to his seat.

- Have a seat, you are making a fool out of yourself and you are embarrassing your country.

The Representative went to his seat while mumbling in a low voice. The security guards put their guns back into their holsters. After a few minutes, the Representatives voted almost unanimously on hearing Seya. He then approached the podium, to talk.

- Thank you for your vote of confidence. Before saying anything, I will just make a Shield around me and the space needed for my guests. I don't want a security guard to have a nervous trigger finger and do anything stupid that for sure would make him be killed. It will also serve as a protection for you, my guests could feel insulted by any of your questions or reactions and do something rash. Especially my Grandfather, he has a bad temper and if he hears someone laughing just by seeing him, it would be a problem. This will also show you what we have to offer to this World.

Before the Representatives astonished eyes, Seya opened his Compressed Dimension and he took from there four big Magic Crystals. He placed them on the ground, making a square big enough for everyone on Gaya's Arches Cave. He placed his hand over each Crystal and started the program for the Light Dome Shield, a transparent one. Four light beams spread up in the air and near the ceiling, they expanded, creating a Dome.

The Representatives were surprised during the entire process and some of them were becoming nervous. Seya raised his hand to call for attention.

- Please, calm down. This is just a Magic Shield. It's capable of absorbing Magic that is thrown against it and any kind of energy. That means, even a bullet or a nuclear explosion won't do anything to it. It would just be absorbed by those Magic Crystals and if the energy was too much, it would deflect the excess all around. This can be used as a Shield, as a nuclear bunker or as a prison. These are just some applications of it. I am sure that you can think about a few more. Those Magic Crystals used to be very rare on my World, but some years ago I discovered an artificially way to make them. I am just guessing, but judging by some looks that I am seeing, you are already thinking about some military applications. Tough luck, I will never explain how to do this, for that purpose. Unless you all want to start another World War that will for sure destroy this beautiful World.

The Representative of America raised his hand, and Seya signalled him to speak.

- I think you can't judge us for thinking on every possible application for that Shield, or at least, as a defence against some enemy.

- Sure, but if your so-called enemy also has one, what would be the outcome? Total annihilation of everyone on this World, perhaps? Let me just say this. I visited two other Worlds some days ago. In the Legosyl World, Dwarfs and Elfians were engaged in a never-ending war, that was going on for Millennia. Only a few hundreds of individuals remained alive. Some more years and two entire Races would be extinct. I offered them a treaty between our Worlds so that they could see that war is not a way of fixing their differences. I also warned them that I could wait until they all died because of that war and I would use their World as a colony. I can warn you in the same way. If Earth engages on a World War because of this Magic Shield or because of your belligerent behaviour, I just need to return to my World and wait for everyone to die because of your own actions and return to rescue the few survivors and colonise this World with some members of our Races. I will do everything in my reach to prevent any kind of stupidity that could result in that outcome, but in the end, it's up to you to decide about your future. Your own God granted you with free will, it's not up to me to interfere with that. I can only try to help as much as I can.

The American Representative frowned.

- I am sorry, but all of that sounded like a threat. You want to use Earth as a colony and with that in mind, you are showing us something that could make us start a World War to get a hold to that type of Magic Shield?

- You are twisting my words. I can only congratulate you by that politic tactic and I will never talk to you again. So, does anyone has a proper question or I can call my guests to help me explain? Because I was warned many times that people tend to underestimate me or make the wrong conclusions about what I say or do.

While the American Representative was arguing that Seya was being suspicious, the English Representative raised his hand.

- If I could say just one thing… Perhaps we all wouldn't be so distrustful if at least you let us see your face. You are still hiding behind that hood of yours.

Seya nodded.

- I understand. This was just an act on my part, to be more mysterious and to put you in a defensive position. I bet that as soon as I reveal myself, some of you will be stupid enough to underestimate me. I must warn you all, on the Ariansyl World, I am the most powerful Mage alive. I was only eight years old when I single-handedly defeated my first Demonoid. A nightmare creature, capable of killing everyone in this room in a matter of minutes. Fortunately for us, those creatures are no longer a problem. They are contained forever inside a Compressed Dimension that me and my friends made. Our entire World united and helped me and hundreds of beings died on that final battle. With that said…

Seya took off the hood from his head, undressed his Mage robe and placed it together with his Staff, inside his Compressed Dimension. In front of the Representatives and for everyone that was following that meeting over the television, a young boy was in front of the podium.

The English Representative stuttered.

- You… are just a boy…

Seya raised his hand to interrupt him and to silence the disbelief voices that were echoing all around.

- No, I am not. I am already sixteen years old and in the Ariansyl World, I am considered an adult. I am also a Marquess of the RabbitKind, a Marquess of the Human Kingdom of Rohan and grandson of the Dwarf King Barunger. I already told some of this, but in the Ariansyl World, there are many Races, each with their very own Kingdom. Over these past years, I have gained the trust and the friendship of every Royal Family in my World. There's also some Magical Beings that our Goddess created, after visiting Earth. I can bring them here right now to prove what I am saying, or you can continue on underestimating me. It's your choice.

Seya could hear scattered voices from all around, and he just stood there, in silence. Since the voices didn't stop, he continued.

- Or I can go away and interact only with the Japanese government. We share a similar mindset and way of living. Maybe it was a mistake for me to try to interact with so many different countries. I just did this because I thought it would be safer and would avoid envy and misunderstandings from the other countries if only Japan was contacted.

- Are you willing to place more of those Magic Arches on another country, or only Japan will have the exclusivity to contact or perhaps, visit, your World?

- That's up for debate, of course. But I will not allow just anyone to go through a Gateway Arch. I don't trust Humans as much as you may think. If you had a look on the television before I appeared for the first time, you understand why I say this. Assassinations, riots, robberies, wars, just to name a few. A lot of Humans are too xenophobic and racist for peaceful interaction with the beings of the Ariansyl World. And the ones that aren't, will find too weird some of the Races that we have, while other Humans will see this opportunity as a dream come true.

The silence in that room was terrifying. Seya could see some puzzled looks facing him, together with some angry ones. After thinking for some seconds, he continued.

- I understand most of your reasons. Until now you all thought that Humans were the only intelligent species in this Universe. Because you rule supreme in this World, you also have the misconception that you are more amazing than you really are. Humans have very short lives, compared with our Dragonoids, Fairies, Mermaids, Elfians, BeastKind, LizardKind, and Dwarfs. You aren't so well adapted like our LizardKind and you aren't as intelligent as our Dragonoids. Humans could be a laughingstock in my World if it weren't for two tiny little details. Breeding and ability with Magic. Humans are fast on increasing their numbers and they also learn fast how to use Magic. There are Humans and BeastKind that are born without the ability to use Magic, but they can still use Magic Crystals for that. Most of our Races mate for life and they can take a long time, to find their lifetime partner. Our Goddess also takes care of not letting our numbers increase too much so that we never suffer from over-population like on Earth. But don't trust only on my words, let me introduce to you a Magical Being, Queen Titania of the Fairies, my personal bodyguard, assigned to me by Goddess Aria, even before I was born.

Titania flew to his right side coming from his back, just a small bright light ball. Slowly, her light increased its size and when the light diminished, Titania was next to Seya, in her Elfian form, with her four multicoloured wings twitching in anticipation. She made a slight bow.

- Greetings, I am Queen Titania. It's a pleasure to meet you all.

Some surprised voices echoed in that room. No one noticed that she was next to Seya all that time. A beautiful woman with pointy ears and four wings was in front of them, with a long white dress and a small tiara on her head. A woman's voice shouted and Titania smiled.

- It's a real Fairy! So beautiful!

- Yes, I am a Fairy. For what I have been told, I was made in the image of a Magical Being that Goddess Aria once saw in a book in a library of this World.
