Ghost Hunt: Panic in the Country
Vol. 0: I Lost | 22. Out of the Body

Cakara who was still putting on a confused face, she gave a questionable look. Yeni who was standing right beside Endra gave a hint using her head. Pointing at Lusya and Ai who were sitting by giving a look to Cakara.

“Ah, there are guests. Wait, I think I've seen you guys. But where is ya?” cakara asked himself. For a while Cakara thought so hard that he remembered something.

“Ah, I've seen you guys. A few weeks ago, in front of the apartment. More precisely this woman,” said Cakara pointed Ai with the right hand. After that, I heard a very sweet music. Who had come from nowhere, but Lusya looked at Ai quickly.

“What are you doing? Stop singing!” lusya's orders. But that is completely useless. Ai only chuckled when she heard the command Lusya said.

“Senior, you're too naive. Working as a double agent, but not killing. I'm really so sick of it, both her parents and foster brother died, it's their destiny. Me and Reje did all this. No, rather. I only killed Bena because he was intruding. Although Rei. It was a different mission, Lusya did not take in this.” Ai told me the truth happened.

“And about your father and mother, it wasn't us who did it. Our only duty is to take you to the residence of Mr. Bhirya. The old man,” said Ai continued her story.

“Then, what does it mean that ‘dia is here’? Doesn't that mean, you killed my father and mother?” tanya Astan returned with a serious face.

“I'm just a witness. At that time, I should have gotten the job. But I refused hard. After that, our team got another job to bring your mom and dad back. Sure, so do you. But the old man kept obstructing our work and he ordered the others to kill you. We apologize, for the failure of our work in bringing and saving you.” Lusya told a long story and ended it by bowing his head.

“Now, I don't know what's right or wrong. You can leave now,” said Astan with a weak face, shocked, confused, and angry.

Astan walked away from them all and walked towards his bedroom. Endra who understood the current state of affairs, only asked Lusya and Ai to go home. After their departure, Endra approached Astan who was sitting on the study bench. He gave a few words of broken words and advice before actually leaving Astan alone.

After Endra's departure, Astan tried to digest all his words. There was no need to force it to restore his lost memories. All the memories of that time will recover if the time has come, Astan just needs to keep trying without forcing hard. Astan walked to the bed and laid his body in peace. Trying to fall asleep in the middle of her problems.

However, when Astan fell asleep in his sleep. Strange things happened, Astan who was about to get up to go to the bathroom. He could not touch the door of the room. As Akan opened his eyes wide and perfectly. He screamed with a few steps back. This made the still awake Cakara appear in front of him.

“Why? It's almost morning and you're screaming loudly as if no one will hear.” Cakara scolded Astan with a loud and annoyed voice, but the next second she was shocked. When he saw the body of Astan who was asleep and standing in front of him.

“Why are you a ghost? Do you not suddenly die? As far as I know, you don't have any disease. How's this?” ask Cakara with a lot.

“I don't know either. I woke up to go to the bathroom. But, I've been like this.” Astan answered with worry and fear.

After a few seconds of chatter, they decided to check. Is Astan really dead or just asleep. They approached and checked Astan's breath. As a result, Astan was asleep. But they still don't believe. Then, a few seconds later Cakara just remembered something.

“Ah, I remember. This is called Astral Projection. Where, your spirit comes out of the body and can wander. That's all I know,” replied Cakara with a proud face.

“Wait a minute, from what I read and heard. Seems harmless,” Cakara replied by putting on his serious face.

“You're sure, can I go back to my body?” ask Astan again.

“Try,” Reply Cakara briefly. Slowly, I tried to do it. Positioning itself the same as its original body, but it did not work at all. This makes them very upset and confused.

“What have you ever done this before?” ask Cakara curiously.

“Because of me, this is the first time I've done this. But, when I was training with Guru Bhiaka, it was also like this. Surprisingly, it's a little different. What's the practice time I do it myself?" Astan replied with a rough sigh.

“It seems, we should ask them. Maybe they know a lot about this all,” said Cakara. After that, they immediately gathered the spirits who were in Astan's apartment.

The spirits seemed to think hard, after listening to the story of Astan and Cakara. For a few minutes, there was no sound until a figure named Bena spoke.

“That's normal, for people who have abilities beyond human reason. The first time I did it, I didn't realize I was just out. That was because spirit energy was higher than humans. Spirit energy has to do with the abilities of the 6 natural worlds, a world title that is divided into several regions in the spirit world. While human energy is more directed to the scales. That means, your spirit energy is churning. You just need to learn and control it, that's all.” Bena explained in easy-to-understand and concise language. All of them who listened to Bena's explanation felt extremely amazed and delighted. Unlike the cold-faced Bena.

After Bena explained a few things, the heavy voice of a man made them turn their attention towards the refrigerator. They saw clearly, a man in his ancient clothes was standing leaning in the refrigerator. The male bears little resemblance to Astan, oval-faced, tan-skinned, and black-haired, but only the eye color is different. Astan's eyes are blackish brown, while those of the man are bluish white. The man walked and sat down quietly.

“Who are you? How can I enter?” ask Astan.

“The two of us have met, lest you forget. I'm Sakhasi,” Sakhasi replied by sending a vision to the entire room of the apartment.

“How can you be human? And also, it looks similar to me.” Astan again asked questions because of his curiosity.

“That's because he's at level zero. Although he had a scales as a tiger, but he could turn into a human. With a note, that human form is the one that has a contract with him.” Clearly Bena was in the midst of those who were still shocked.

“My goal here is to reopen your memories of the past. Let's go,” said Sakhasi, standing from his seat. Those who hear the purpose of Sakhasi are silent in his confusion. Without asking, Astan agreed to Sakhasi's invitation.

Now they are Astan and Sakhasi. Get out of the apartment through a portal belonging to Sakhasi. Shaped a large door with roots-like carvings on each side of the door. After passing through the portal, they had been in another cave. More precisely, in his cave-shaped artificial world. The cave has turned into a comfortable place to live. There are sofas, tables, closets, and beds. Astan looked at the room with an astonished face.

“Sit down, I will show you a memory I have long stored. If you come to a psychologist, they will say that this is because you are traumatized. But not just because you are traumatized. I keep memories that never existed in your memory. So, I only give my memories,” explained Sakhasi.
