Part 192 Memory returned

Arya seemed a little bit devastated, about the confession of Jean and Hans. He did not expect that it turned out that the parents he had trusted as his family, in fact, were only adoptive parents. Arya doesn't even know who her real parents are.

All the veils as if bit by bit began to open. All the tattoos on her body, were indeed the same as what Nayla had said just a moment ago. All the tattoos, not accidental, but indeed with carved on his body. And, who did just that, was Hans.

In the past, Hans and Jean were two of the few tens of people in the world, whose job it was to help put down evil. Whoever they are, obviously, they look more like cops in an invisible world. Jean and Hans hunt down the evil creatures on this earth. They are in an organization spread across the earth. Whatever the type, if they have a negative impact on human well-being, then that's where Jean and Hans are tasked with solving the problem. Black demons, is one of the many types of creatures that must be suppressed.

After the black demon perished, the two of them still continued the fight, killing the demons and other monsters. And now they are reunited. Of course this is not a desirable reunion to happen, because if until they get together, then there is actually a bad, even worst thing going on around them.

"So you don't remember us?" jean asked, pointing at Nayla and Arya.

"Of course, I remember you guys. And the last thing I remember, you guys are my distant sisters. Although in reality you are a fraud," said Arya cynically.

Nayla was silent. Ever since seeing Jean and Hans, the girl had been silent. Jean stared at Nayla intensely, there was a strange glare of eyes clearly drawn there. Jean grinned, "you remember us, don't you, Nayla?" ask Jean.

Nayla remained silent, her mind felt crowded. But it all feels empty. It's just that his heart rippled incoherently. Nayla pressed against her chest while trying to take in as many breaths as she could. "Somehow, it feels like something is missing, but I can't sip anything" he said with a sad expression. Jean turned to Hans, as if asking for the old man's approval. Years change, but the two of them do not change at all. For they will not age, and live eternally. Because they're the maid of archangel.  Hans nodded.

Jean placed herself sitting in front of Nayla, her gaze gentle yet full and sharp. "Do you want me to help you remember everything?" ask Jean, slowly. Nayla glared, as if not believing Jean's words just now. He turned to Hans, and got a steady nod from the old man.

"Can you?" ask Nayla at the end. Jean smiled, then nodded.

"We have a great ability. That is, discarding and restoring one's memory. Back then, I had lost someone's memory because it wasn't time for him to know, and now it's time for me to return that memory."

"Before, who do you mean?" ask Nayla suspiciously.

"You'll also know later that your memory has been restored" Jean said. "How's it?"

After weighing a few minutes, Nayla finally nodded. He looked at everyone in the room one by one. Everyone seemed to be waiting for what would happen next. Arya too, he continued to look at Nayla nanar. As Nayla turned her gaze to Abhimanyu, the man looked at her expectantly. Indeed this is what he wants, to meet again with his parents, along with all the memories they have experienced first. Not like now, like a stranger who increasingly feels more painful for Abhimanyu.

"But ... Are you strong? Because it's gonna hurt."

"Hurtful?"

"Hm, yes. You will feel a very bad headache. Because all the information you should have forgotten, will come back together. I'm scared ... You won't be strong" Jean began to doubt.

"Let me first!" arya offered herself. Wira and Gio turned their eyes to the young man. None of them forbid, but they still feel anxious about the consequences Arya and Nayla must accept to regain their memories. "I'm ready, come on, Jean!" aryan orders with full confidence. Jean looked at Hans who was not long enough to disturb his head.

Jean tells Arya to sit in front of her. Everyone who was about to witness it, felt a thump in their hearts. I am anxious and curious. Until finally, Jean began the ritual. "Close your eyes, yes." Jean closed her eyes after Arya. Arya who sat cross-legged like Jean, began to focus on all of Jean's instructions. Now that Jean's right hand was on Arya's forehead, as she cast a spell of memory reversal, the sapphire necklace she was wearing also shone brightly. Even very bright.

In the darkness of Arya's gaze, he began to feel the bright light that was in his mind. The light was blue and quite bright. Now some silhouettes that he had seen all this time, began to look clear. Even now everything is clear, the memory of the memories that occurred during some of the lives he had lived so far. His life was, from the beginning, cursed by God, and ended in punishment on earth. Living a life that never ends. Live, die, and keep it that way. Arya started to remember everything, everything.

The bright light coming from Jean's hand, now began to dim. The woman with brown hair then removed her hand from Arya's forehead. Jean felt a trembling in both hands. What he had done was enough to take away his strength. Jean pressed against her chest as she continued to stare at Arya who was still closing her eyes.

The young man began to get nervous. In the condition of his two eyes closed, Arya was like having a nightmare. His face was sweating a lot. His mouth was locked, but as if he wanted to scream and ask for help. Abhimanyu who initially wanted to get close, was held back by Hans who was standing beside him. Hans shook his head slowly, and made Abhimanyu stop. They waited until Arya opened her eyes again.

His breath was stingy, he then looked at everyone in this room alternately. Nayla who sat not far from him continued to stare at the young man intensely, waiting for the reaction from Arya who had just been silent. "I .. I remember everything." But after saying that sentence, Arya then pressed her head while screaming in pain. Jean panicked a bit, but in the end Hans took over. Hans approached, then placed his fingertips on Arya's forehead. Slowly the pain he felt faded away. And now when his eyes opened, all the pain was gone. But Aryan's face was quite pale. His eyesight was a firefly. He was looking for someone, and his eyes now stopped on one person standing at the end, far enough away from him.

Arya. Everyone looked at him, astonished. He continued walking towards the direction where Abhimanyu was standing. When the two are close together, it looks very clear that Arya's eyes are glassy and red. He was holding back the cry that he had been crying since. "Anamazole?" call Arya, slow down. Abi felt his chest tight. He knew that this young man before him, had remembered everything. Arya's eyes were different, from the first time they met yesterday.

Arriving Arya immediately pulled Abhimanyu's body into his arms. Abhimanyu also returned Arya's embrace tightly. The longing that he had endured all this time now began to be able to spill on his father. Now it all feels the same. Every look in Arya's eyes, his touch and even the roar of his breath, is indeed the same as Arya Abi used to know. Arya is her own father. This haru moment really drained the emotions of everyone who saw it. Even Nayla who had not fully remembered everything also cried.

The two then hugged tightly, like friends who had not met for a long time. Arya let go of her embrace, then looked at one of her best friends with nanar. "Gi, I really thank you for everything. You really kept your promise, to keep Abi. Thank you very much, you must have sacrificed all your lives as well" Arya said with tears. Gio was no longer able to hold back his tears as well. Especially in front of him now there is someone who they really missed a long time ago. "Make me and Adi, Abhimanyu we already consider our own son, Yes. You don't have to say that."

"Wait on! Where's Adi? From the first time we came, I didn't see him?" ask Arya. Gio looked at Abhimanyu and the two similarly took a deep and heavy breath.

"Uncle Adi .. is dead, Dad. He has sacrificed a lot for us all this time" Abhimanyu said in response to his father's question. Arya looked very hit, her body staggered backwards. And successfully completed by Wira. "Are you okay?' ask the hero, worried.

"How did Adi die?" ask Arya again. Abhimanyu then told all the events that had happened to Adi. Even all his life after Arya and Nayla died first. Arya seemed to be in shock, and now just sitting still while feeling all the things that passed from her for so many years.

Now it's Nayla's turn. He also insisted on being able to regain his memories. It feels very uncomfortable with his condition like a memory loss person. Moreover, seeing Arya who is now like everyone else, and is no longer Arya who he knew yesterday.

Jean did the same thing she did to Arya. The reaction given by Nayla was almost the same as that of Arya. Nayla was more hysterical and screamed more often. Arya who could not bear, then approached and hugged the girl, to provide calm. Until Nayla really opened her eyes, she was really hit over everything that had happened to Abhimanyu.

Tonight is a family gathering that no one in this room has ever imagined. The memories of the two men have returned. And their mission is increasingly visible in plain sight. Search for the other 9 keys they must immediately get to annihilate their biggest enemy. Azazil. Because if Azazil escapes, then they will have no other chance to change their destiny. Because when Lucifer starts intervening, they're all gonna die.

Kamal, the drowning victim who until now has not been found his body, still leaves a big question mark. Jean and Hans come to this place because they smell a supernatural odor that cannot be explained by common sense.

"So what do you think is going on here?" ask the enthusiastic hero.

"Hm, we don't know yet. And our purpose came here to investigate."

"We better all rest first.already that night," pointed Gio at the wall clock that was fixed above the wall of the living room. Everyone agreed, because today was so heavy and they needed a break. Nayla and Ellea sleep one room. Even though Arya and Nayla's memories have returned, but in this life, they are not married. And they should keep that principle.

The rooms in this inn were indeed not fit to accommodate everyone. Abi and Arya sleep on the couch. They felt the most appropriate, considering the age of the two of them the youngest among the others, and also because of the Wira who was still injured. Everyone did not interrupt during the room division. Because they realize that fathers and children of different generations want to have a lot of time together.

The blanket was already on top of both bodies. They were on separate couches, but close together. Only separated by a long table that is still full of snacks that they had eaten together, following the garbage they deliberately let first, and will be discarded the next day.

Silent. The voice of conversation is no longer heard. Everyone in the room fell asleep a few minutes ago. They were quite tired, and again tomorrow they also had to go to the next mission.

"Bi, so you have that ability as well?" arya asked suddenly, and broke the silence between the two of them. Abi, who was about to sleep, finally opened his eyes again. He thinks this needs to be discussed with his father, who was the previous owner of this ability.

"Yes, Dad. I don't know if I should be grateful or sad. I escaped death several times. But I'm scared too. Afraid that my life will continue to be long, while people around me do not experience it. The thing I fear the most is losing them all. But after I found out about what my father, mother, and Om Wira were going through, I felt that your suffering was much more severe. And I shouldn't complain about this. I should be grateful, because I can do a lot of good with this ability of mine," explained Abhimanyu at length.

Arya who was currently just laying down her body and looking at the sky clearly thought and felt the sadness of her son. He had felt everything Abi had said just now. Because the most painful thing for him is to be abandoned by those closest to him.

"I'm sure, all the things that you've experienced, we've indeed experienced His destiny. Life is a struggle. Not where we find happiness. The only lasting happiness is heaven" Arya said, then turned to her son.

"Well, I know dad. And to get to heaven, I must die."

'You really want to die or what? You should enjoy life and do good."

"Dad, I've felt everything in this world. And I was just waiting for my death. Dad, you're an angel, if you ever meet a life-seeking angel, please tell him to put my name on the list of people he has to take his life from," abi said while laughing. It was as if what he said was a joke that could make his father laugh.

"Well, if I meet the angel of death, I'll talk about it." Arya responded casually to Abi's words. They decide to follow their friends to enter the dreamland and rest their tired bodies.

Both pairs of their eyeballs were already hot and heavy. They said good night to each other, and the closing sentence went to bed. But after a few seconds they closed their eyes, they heard another scream. They opened their eyes and looked at each other. They sharpen their hearing and try to find out the origin of the scream. Hans and Jean leave their room. "You hear?" ask Jean while wearing her jacket. Arya and Abi nodded simultaneously. Hans carries a gun in his hand, then leaves the house followed by Jean. Abi and Arya looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
