Scavenging Success

Scavenging Success
Acts 17: Clapping Hands (Part 4)


[Of course not. Even if the Host imposes a will by utilizing the power of the System. The host can only have its shell, but it will not have its contents. For anyone, the host is just a human. Hosts can't get everything.]


‘That's you right. But..’ has not two months Kai get the System, Kai feels that his life is very easy and fun.


‘Don't you explain to me that the System exists for those who have a strong desire?’


[Yes the Host. The system will only be obtained by those who still have the desire and do business even though they are in the worst situation.]


‘Then what does it mean if the owner of the system cannot have everything,’ without Kai realizing little by little his strength has poisoned his heart. Without Kai knowing. Inside him began to grow parasites called selfishness, self-esteem, and greed.


[Let's not Host be like most other System owners who at the end of their lives are labeled as cruel, callous, and selfish. Whereas in the beginning the System came to them, they had a noble purpose in life.]


‘Mostly? Can you be one of them?’


[Ramses, Napoleon, Hitler, Musolini. At first all they wanted was the success of their country. But in the end Ramses admitted that he was God. Napoleon was never satisfied with women and power. As for Hitler and Musolini, in the end they became war criminals.]


‘So I will most likely be like all of them?’


[Yes Host. Most of the system owners, at the end of their lives, just act and behave like animals that can do everything and some can resist.]


‘If I turn into someone like that, what will happen? Are you going to leave me?’


[No Host. The system will not leave its Host. But the Host Guarantee System won't get the Host's lifetime of happiness if the Host ultimately just becomes an animal in a human skin shell.]


‘Is the possibility of the system owner being a good person?’


[Not much. But there are some System owners before the Host self who at the end of his life choose to live like a human and do not play the role of being a God.]


‘Then, I want to be part of those little System owners,’ whispered Kai.


[Hopefully the Host can do it.]


Even the System was not sure if Kai could keep all the power he would have in the future would not poison his heart any worse than it is today.


‘Thank you for reminding me System,’ said Kai sincerely.


[Together Host.]


“Kai, I suggest you. As the leader of all of us, try to act more maturely in the face of all problems,” advice Udin who forgets that both himself and Kai are currently still eighteen years old. The two of them were basically the youngest of the four friends.

A few minutes they chat ngalor ngidul in order for Kai can treat the lump in his heart.


“Kai.. Actually I have known since a few weeks ago that Yono actually really loves Kika,” explained Udin.


“Where do you know that?” Kai downed the glass in his hand.


“I know because Yono had confided with me at that time while still in Cijagung. But for Kika's feelings I don't know,” said Udin.


“Kika also loves Yono very much,” replied a middle-aged woman who was walking behind them.


“Eh. Ati ma'am!” greet Udin to Mbak Ati.


“Kika ever story also the same me,” Mbak Ati continued without answering the greeting Udin.


“Why Did Ati come down? Can't sleep too?” ask Udin back.


“You forgot? My room is next to Kika's. And they are very noisy,” explained Mbak Ati who was immediately greeted by a glass of drink from Kai.


“Thank you,” Mbak Ati directly enjoyed the drink offered by Kai.


‘OK if Kika confides with Mbak Ati. That's still natural. After all, Kika once told me that Mbak Ati was like her own brother. But if a Yono comes to confide?! Plus confided to the Udin?!’ Kai wondered inwardly while ascertaining whether he was dreaming.


“How come Yono would confide in me?” Udin could already guess the contents of Kai's head.


“Yes. Sure oes. Yono is very economical when talking, and you are right.” replied Kai.


“I what?” ask Udin.


“Ngot to be trusted,” whispered Kai slowly.


“Because nothing else,” Kai joked.


Yes Udin is right. Even though Udin is ridiculous and weird. But he is an honest and trustworthy person to be given trust. But still.It's strange that Kai should think when Yono confides with Udin. Glowering.


Udin growled a little annoyed. But he was sure that Kai was just joking. Then he continued talking.


“So, that time Yono also told me the reason why he wanted to confide in me.”


“Why said?” Kai curious. Not only Kai, it turns out that Mbak Ati also put on a serious face preparing to listen.


“Yono told me that he didn't want me to make a big mistake like what he did. So that later I will turn into a sad figure like him at this time,” explained Yono back.


“What does Yono change like?” ask Kai who doesn't understand.


“Yono told me that he also brought my kayak,” replied Udin.


“Ah Cook?!” Ati screeched in disbelief.


“Iya. He said so. But that's just because of one mistake. In the end without her own noticing, Yono had completely changed. The guilt that continues to fill his heart until now makes him forget how to smile,” explained Udin.


Kai has read a bit of Yono's past through detective visions. Yono believes that the mistake Kai meant was related to his late wife Yono.


“How's the story? Is this a secret?” mama asked Curious.


Kai turned his head towards the enthusiastic Ati Mbak. Kai felt sad when he saw Mbak Ati coming to this house. But Kai is now grateful because Mbak Ati is not as calm as when he came.


“Si Yono is not much of a story. Especially about his past. But I don't think this is a secret. And I think it's good for you both to know this,” Udin is looking for the right reason to be a bucket man who often leaks people's secrets.


‘Had just said that he was a trustworthy person,’ criticizes Kai in the heart. Kai only dared to criticize inwardly because he was also curious about Yono's past life story.


“Do you want to listen to Kai?” ask Udin to make sure.


“Of course, I have to know everything that happened to my men in the past for my objectivity,” like Udin, Kai looking for the right reasons as a cover for his kepo anya.


Udin glanced at Mbak Ati meaningfully.


“I girl!” replied Ma'am Ati.


Two words that answer everything. Which girl is not as fond of gossip and kepoin people's lives.


“One thing you probably should know first, Yono is actually Kika's Sister-in-law,” Udin started his conversation with a surprising fact.


“Loh... But kok... Kika kayak who doesn't know?” ask Mama Ati.


“Yes. Kika does not know. There is a story why Yono kept this status a secret to everyone,” Udin asked both viewers to be a little more patient.


Kai was surprised by this new fact. He then asked the system.


‘Why does a detective's vision not tell important facts like this when I investigate them all through my vision?’.


[There are some things that are intentionally System secret so that some of those things can be a surprising fact when the Host knows it.]


‘Padahat actually what's wrong if I was told everything?’


[No Host. When the host knows everything. Then Host is not a human anymore.]


‘Oh yes... Still connect with your explanation from earlier yes.?’


[Yes Host. The system will strive to give the Host a lot of advantages. But on the other hand, the System wants the Host to still feel various sensations as an ordinary human being.]


Answer System makes sense.


“So...” Udin deliberately paused his words to make his two friends curious.


“This story started sixteen years ago..”.
