Joe William
Gift lights from the city of Kemuning


That night, the group of hundreds of people finally set up a large tent in the front yard of Tengku Mahmud's house. This is because the old house belongs to a man who is also very old but has a young soul that will not be able to accommodate many humans.


Now, it's for everyone to give Joe a gift on his birthday.


Starting from Roger who when it had received punishment from Joe for the incident at the people's party a few days ago.


While sneezing several times to remove the shame in his heart, Roger finally approached Joe and said. "Chairman. Sorry for my mistake a few days ago. As a sign of my apology at once to celebrate the president's birthday, I hereby give this antique lamp to the chairman." Said Roger who was greeted by Joe with a smile.


"Thank you uncle Roger. The past let it pass." Said Joe who does have a forgiving and not vengeful nature.


"Chairman. Because the chairman really likes the lamp, this I present a lamp syringe that is no less unique than Roger's lamp." Tigor said, handing over a blue lamp to Joe.


"Thank you uncle Tigor." Joe said while forcing a smile.


After Roger and Tigor finished with the prize, now also arrived Ameng's turn who seemed to be lifting a large box.


"Chairman. This is a Petromax lamp gift from me. This lamp was once used by the Sultan in the Dutch era. Please the Chairman will accept this gift." Ameng said.


"Oh yes uncle Ameng. Thanks." Said Joe.


This time he could no longer hide the frown on his forehead.


"Why the prize is all the lights?" Thought in the heart.


After Ameng, now it is Andra and Hendro's turn.


"Chairman. Because you love lights, my son and I deliberately ordered these lights from Baghdad Iraq. This lamp is Aladdin's lamp but it has no genie anymore." Said Andra.


This time it was not just Joe who frowned. Jerry, Clara and the rest of Starhill's entourage frowned, astonished at the prize.


Finished with Andra and Hendro, it is now Namora's turn to come forward to give the prize.


"Chairman. This is a worthless gift from me. Please the Chairman will accept. Don't look at the shape. This is a lamp I made myself. The flavor was from the stove axis of my late grandfather. While the tube is made from a can of milk cap Miss. Please Mr. Sudi accept." Namora said.


This time it wasn't just Joe who smiled wryly. Even Tengku Mahmud also paid attention with his lips like reciting a mantra.


One by one they gave a gift to Joe William. And all those gifts are lamps with different models and shapes.


"Chairman. Because it's not bright enough here, what if we just turn on the lamp we brought earlier?" Ask Ameng.


"Oh. Aye! Please uncle!" Said Joe.


Luckily Grandpa Tengku Mahmud's house did not go into electricity. If the current situation was bright, they would definitely see a frown on Joe's forehead because they were surprised by this gift from them.


"Sorry chairman. It takes extra energy and patience." Said Ameng starting to sweat pumping that Petromax lamp.


After the atmosphere became bright, now it was Tengku Mahmud's turn to give a gift to Joe.


Tengku Mahmud now took out a small chest made of sandalwood, then opened the chest.


"Joe. You've ended your study. But you can't feel that you're done. This gift of mine is a sharp weapon." Tengku Mahmud said while taking out a knife made of gold. This knife he once lent to Tigor. Now he plans to pass the heirloom weapon to Joe. His only student.


"This knife is called Rencong. This is a traditional weapon from Aceh. If you are desperate and in close combat, a weapon like this is very useful. But you don't take this weapon out once in a while if you really feel you don't have to. Since every one of these weapons was unplugged, he had to drink blood. Or, you'll be the one who's gonna get fucked." Tengku Mahmud warned that Joe William's book of Romans would stand.


Clearly, he knew that the words of Tengku Mahmud were not nonsense. If the old man had said with such seriousness, it would have been a warning that should not be broken.


"Take a small chest from Malik. Pair this rencong with his relic dagger!"


"Good Cake." Joe said and went into the house immediately.


Soon he came out again with a chest that was slightly larger than the box where Tengku Mahmud's rencong was.


With a very affectionate feeling, Joe then opened the coffin of his late grandfather's Grandfather then received a golden rencong from Tengku Mahmud then placed it side by side with a dagger with the head of the cobra's head.


"Your weapons are now complete. An iron ball, twelve silver needles, and a pair of golden blades. Beware of the four weapons, especially the phantom fingers you've mastered. If you can't measure your energy, you'll definitely kill people. So be diligent in practicing so that you can measure how much energy you will spend." Tengku Mahmud said he gave a warning.


"Joe will remember all the messages from my Teng grandfather." Joe said as he gathered and took the man's wrinkled hand and kissed him.


"Joe. Grandpa can't give you anything special except a top Villa in Garden Hill. This villa was built at my own request and is the only one in Garden Hill. Precisely on a hill that is indeed the land in the hills is the property of your father. This is the key to the villa. Later if you go back and take care of your father's business there, you can occupy the Villa anytime you want."


This time Drako also gave a gift to his only grandson.


"Joe. You're 17 years old now. I don't know how many years in this country I have to have a driving permit. But if it's in Metro City, Starhill, Country home and beyond, I can arrange it. But it's okay if now I present you with a Ferrari 488 Pista Super Car. The car is currently in the Villa Garden garage. You can use it as you please." Mr. Sham also said while deploying the keys to the super car to Joe William.


"Grandfather Sham, Grandfather Drako, I am your grandson to thank you very much. But isn't this an exaggeration?" Joe asked his grandparents.


"Haha. What is excessive? It's time you knew who you were. Maybe you're proud to be called chairman by the people from Kemuning town and surrounding areas. Later you will know how many hundreds of thousands of people you will lead. This did not include the mercenary organization of Tiger. Indeed, their number is not up to ten thousand people. But for certain tasks, they are more dangerous than Japanese ninjas." Drako.


"But I was astonished. Why is the gift you got on your birthday this time mostly lights?" Ask Mr. Sham.


"Haha. Long story cake. But I really like antique lights." Joe replied, making Roger breathe a sigh of relief.


If Joe tells all the events between himself and Roger, it is not impossible at this time Roger will be thrown into the sea by them.


Seriate...
