101 Avatars
73. Zenri's Regret

That blind morning, when I asked him how he was.  He also said that he was on campus to pick up the teacher's son, Nafisah.  I don't know why I feel bad today.  Is it because the nuances shown this morning are the same as when the monster tragedy disguised as Kak Riri began?

To let go of my bad feelings, I also took a walk on campus around the faculty building to make sure that no bad events happened there.  However, like the jinx that arrived earlier, what I was worried about was just unlucky to happen.

At about 7 am, suddenly there was a noise of people around the faculty building.  Apparently it was triggered by the amount of ice that suddenly fell from the roof of the faculty building.  Not only that, strange noises were also heard on the roof floor of the building.

My feelings also began to get worse when the chat-chat that I sent at that time to Bobi was not reciprocated as well.  Moreover, the place where the noise that was heard so clearly from under the building where I was, was the last location that Bobi told me.

Somehow at that time, the campus was crowded in the morning blind, even though it was a Christmas holiday.  It might just be a coincidence that is not something important about if Sundays or holidays, laboratories and libraries are only allowed to open from 6 am to 12 pm.

What is clear, quite crowded campus at that time, trigger faster about strange events on the roof of the faculty building spread to the public in chains.  Everything was finally confirmed once someone was brought down by dozens of strange drones from the rooftop floor of the faculty building.  The drone belonged to the Red Blood Hero so it was most likely that the cause of the commotion above was the avatar monster.

I looked carefully at the figure brought down by the drones.  Ah, apparently he's Bobi.  Thank goodness he was fine even though he appeared to be slightly injured.  But why did his expression seem so unhappy?  Ah, right too.  He said he was going to pick up Nafisah, which means Nafisah is still up there right now along with the avatar monster.

As soon as Bobi landed, I immediately headed nearby to make sure that his condition was fine.

“Zenri.”  Lirih Bobi to me.

In the drowning, I also gave my lap as a crutch of strength to my most precious friend.

I still remember clearly in the past, I was the one who ruined her life during school so much that she had to go to a faraway place to continue her High School before we were finally reunited at this place.

At that time, when I was 10 years old, about the time I stepped in 4th grade Elementary, I could not bear to see a new child of loners who seemed ostracized in our generation, we, come to him and try to get him to hang out.  Day after day, I never stopped letting go until she finally gave up and began to invite me back to chat.

It didn't take long for us to get close about Bobi being a good boy.  It's just, there seems to be a certain trauma in him that makes him isolate himself in social circles.

Until arriving at the time of our class increase tour work.  I rummaged there and disappeared from the group as it plunged into the abyss.  Stupidly, I entered a place that said forbidden because it was driven by my own curiosity.

As a result, I accidentally stepped on a fragile cliff and finally the cliff cracked and then I fell down.  Fortunately the height of the cliff is not too high so even though it fell there, at least my life is still safe.

But what now?  Both of my legs were injured and probably broken so I was impossible to move.  I could only cry out for help out loud, hoping that some of my entourage would listen and save me.

But is that possible?  Because the locations we visited were diverse and maybe the teacher had not realized that I was separated from my group, while none of my group seemed to care when I slipped out of the group.

Ah, it's because of my own actions all this time who always roamed around during the field trip to other places outside the group so that in the end my friends have become accustomed to my attitude and in the end ignore it.

“Please, someone, realize that I am missing.”  I'm in my heart.

Evening has arrived.  The teachers should have realized that I was missing and started looking for me.  But how is this?  This place is so dark and creepy.  I was so scared.

But what is this?  Wings out of Bobi's back?

It was at that time that Bobi finally revealed his past to me that I also learned the secret of Bobi about his kidnapping case and where he was used as an illegal human experiment and how he ended up mutating into a mutant.

But at that time, maybe because I was a child, I actually considered it as something cool and it was just a wonder why Bobi was embarrassed to have it.  But because Bobi asked me to keep it a secret from others, I followed his wishes.

Until one day, launched the game Hero of Hope aka Hoho game as we moved to sixth grade.  At that time, I saw one of the game characters in Hoho game that is very similar to the Bobi wing, namely Avatar Sena.

And with a moron, I slipped in front of my classmates about Bobi's secret.

“Wah, this Sena character is interesting.  Similar to the beautiful wings of Bobi.”  I said naively without the brake in my mouth.

“Wings?  You mean Bobi collected some kind of anime figure with wings?”  Asked one of my classmates about my statement.

Then again foolishly and innocently, I replied, “No.  I mean, the original Bobi wing in his mutant form.”

I should have dodged that time by saying that all of it was just joking while displaying my laughing expression as usual.  But what I showed, I actually clearly displayed the facial expression of someone who accidentally slipped a secret.  And as soon as I said that it was just a joke, it was too late because no one else believed me.

I was hoping that my classmates would agree with me that mutants are cool.  They possessed abilities that a normal human could not possess at all.

Apparently I was wrong.  At that time, there was still a phobia about the cruelty of humans with powers beyond the limits of human ability, he said, especially triggered by the bloody incident in 2031, which was closed with the sacrifice of the Dewantara family husband and wife so that the world can be saved.

However, now the view of humans with superpowers has again improved thanks to the struggle of a genius scientist named Dios and the second child of a married couple of heroes from the House of the Antara.

The school that Bobi and I were at was an elite school where students were given a prominent family.  It did not take long for them to dig up information about Bobi who turned out to be one of the students of Padepokan Wijayakusuma.

And if it talks about Wijayakusuma, everything is easily connected with the case of the rescue of mutants victims of unknown mad scientists, all of whom were evacuated to Wijayakusuma Padepokan.

It has been reported in the news that in the end the ten mutants who survived the mad scientist's experiment are all gone.  However, they easily speculate that the Wijayakusuma Family has covered up the identity of the mutants who managed to survive.  Where they finally concerned about their speculation that Bobi is a mutant whose identity is trying to be covered up by the Wijayakusuma Family.

Especially with the reputation of the Wijayakusuma Family which is often associated as a paradise for spiritualists who have begun to disappear from history since their sadistic acts in 2031 ago where their existence finally became blasphemy the societies.

Indirectly, the Wijayakusuma Family who tried to protect them, finally blasphemed by the community.  It would not be surprising if they really protected a mutant.

Even though I said that my words were wrong, they did not believe it anymore.  Even cruelly, they poured hot silver water on Bobi's back just to prove the truth of the news.  In the end, Bobi's identity was discovered and became Bobi as months in school.

All because of my stupidity and my mouth that can't keep a secret.
