THE DIMENSION GUARD
trouble carrier

Erdu really showed a proud expression, as the hope for him to awaken the power of inner strength was now coming. Erdu's achievements will now silence the mouths of those who belittle him.

"Senior Setsu, I am truly grateful, if not for your help, I do not know until when to wait for a miracle when my strength rises." Said Erdu who shook Setsu's hand tightly.

"People have their own goals, you or I, we both need each other's help, you help me and I'll help you." Setsu replies showing that he did just that as a form of cooperation.

"But if I may know, what senior wants to do with that ancient artifact."

"Just a little business from my research." Setsu replied with a secret.

"Oh so, I was once told by the ancestors of the Mataram clan, that the artifact had magical powers that indicate its use to a foreign place."

"That's it, but since there's something mystical that makes me curious."

Erdu looks worried...."But senior please, don't let the Mataram clan's artifacts be damaged."

"You can trust me."

"All right, I'm going."

"Be careful on the road."

Not long after Erdu left, two figures came near Setsu, the man and woman who appeared right behind, without the need to turn around, as if they were known by Setsu.

The women were Risa and Yohan, two university students who tried to make trouble with the Soldiers some time ago. But their presence at Setsu's place for his own reasons.

"Setsu, who exactly is the person you asked us to hold it." Risa.

"He was strong enough when we were both fighting... If there's no bully, I've thrown him in the trash." A man named Yohan.

Smiling Setsu belittled their words, it was because he himself knew that the Soldier resistance was not a real fight...."Just an old friend, senior."

"What happened to the soldiers."

"Senior Nura stopped us, there's no way we're going to continue fighting."

"Well, what a coincidence." Setsu muttered thinking of something else.

"I really don't understand, he's just a regular high school student, but your friend is able to escape my attack." Risa obviously refused to believe it.

"If your friend is an elite class I can still understand his strength, but no matter how I look, he's just a regular class... What might the regular classes now become stronger." Yohan thought so too.

It can already be guessed Setsu, if both seniors are unable to face Soldiers, but for the sake of maintaining their self-esteem there are lies in the story that Setsu heard. Defeated by the High School boy, regular class anyway, was certainly a great insult to both.

"He became a Regular class just a pretense, while his abilities were in a different class." Reply Setsu.

"It's only fitting that he can make both of us a hassle." Risa acknowledges.

"Just that I didn't think it through, he let go of the opportunity to enter the Elite class."

"Askar is not a person who would trouble himself to go to school." Setsu was well versed in the thoughts of the Soldiers.

Risa spoke up about Soldiers..."But Setsu, the ability he has, is really strange, I don't know what it is, but we can't beat him easily."

"That's not strange, senior, I can't beat him alone. Even if the three of us fight together, it's still not enough to defeat the Soldiers." Setsu said the truth.

Risa and Yohan momentarily fell silent, while Setsu walked back into the room to fix all the tools she used before. They both understand that Setsu is extraordinary and very strong, but only the first time they heard he claimed it was difficult to defeat someone.

"Senior, tell the chairman, I'll start my goal in two days." Setsu said from inside his room.

"All right, I'll tell you." Reply to Risa and bring Yohan to go.

*******

Feeling uneasy with the way the Soldier looked at him, Nura spoke...."Why do you look at me like that, is there something strange on my face."

"Hmmm, it's not strange, it's just that I remember something from the past." Answer Soldier.

"What does this have to do with me ?."

"It should be so, but if senior doesn't feel that way, better forget it."

"You're a weird guy."

"I'd rather be called unique or mysterious." Soldier Reply.

"As far as you go."

On knocking on the door of the principal's room, and directly opening itself, this was neither a magic door nor an automatic door, but from Gustav's ability as a controller of the empty space element, he was able to move anything within the range of his strength.

"Excuse me, Mr. Gustav."

"Oh, you're Nura, what do you need here...." A glance saw a man walking in right behind Nura. Gustav's smile to greet the daughter of the Mataram clan head slowly descended.

"Askar... What problem are you doing now ?" Continue Gustav speaking.

"Askar ?." Nura was slightly surprised when the name was uttered by Gustav.

"Are you now a psychic, Mr. Gustav."

"Not really."

"But why does Mr. Gustav know that I came because there was a problem."

"Askar, whenever your name is heard in my ears, it's always a problem." Gustav replied as he shook his head.

"Wait for the principal, don't think of me as a troublemaker." Soldier refuted.

"Indeed you don't bring trouble, but you're always in trouble."

"Yes ... To me it's become commonplace." Reply Soldier with a smile.

"Why are you smiling, I'm not praising you." Upset Gustav saw the attitude of the Soldier.

It was strange for Nura to see how the Soldiers and Gustavs interacted with each other unlike the disciples and principals. Even as an Elementor three high school alumnus, he knew how much influence the headmaster Gustav had.

The Mataram clan still gives face and honor to Gustav, where he is a veteran who once defended the country during the third world war.

"Mr Gustav, I have a report from Risa and Yohan, if this man is on top of the campus building, they suspect him of theft." Nura told them all their words.

"Is that true Soldier ?."

"Of course not the principal, if I think about it, what am I stealing for ?." The soldier asked Gustav to think for himself.

"Yes, it's true." Gustav nodded in agreement, there was no reason for Soldiers to steal, because if he wanted to, everything was provided by Zam.

"Well, what are you doing on top of the college building ?." Gustav wanted to know the details of the Soldier's goal.

"alright... I saw Erdu before and wanted to know what he was doing."

Surprised Nura and quickly she asked...."Why did Erdu come to campus."

"I don't know, but he's with Senior Setsu." Relax, the soldier replied.
