"I can't fight with this disembodied soul figure, how do I deal with that monstrous figure? I can't believe there's been a terrible creature inside you, Mr. Peteng."
"Grprgh...!"
The hideous figure drew closer to the old man, looking the old man hesitatingly approaching the monstrous figure.
"No, I can't back down! I promised Mr. Peteng to help him become very strong."
The old man directly advanced towards that monstrous figure with mixed feelings of fear and recklessness.
"..?!"
The horrible figure was shocked and confused because the old man had retreated and was afraid when he saw himself, now he appeared to be full of recklessness in front of the terrible creature.
"The creature must have just wanted to protect Mr. Peteng. All right, I'll show him my good intentions."
As it drew closer, the old man was already standing right in front of the monstrous creature and they were staring at each other.
"His eyes are sharp...."
The old man extended his hand towards the front and tried to touch the monstrous figure.
Glup!
The nervousness and fear of being one and already plastered clearly on his face, but that monstrous figure showed no resistance at all.
For a moment the old man's hand managed to touch the head of that monstrous figure.
"Soft...." While gently stroking it.
The cring! The cring! The cring!
"Huh? What's going on?"
Suddenly this dark atmosphere turned into a place full of warmth and beauty, then the old man was startled to see this incident and immediately glanced towards that monstrous figure again.
"It turns out you are really a wolf, a huge body like a lion and thick hair growing around its neck. You really are a strong person."
"He, he.., woof...." While wagging his tail.
The old man who saw that smiled and stroked back the black wolf's head, looking as if the wolf liked the old man.
"Thank God, you understand my good intentions. Now that this place is completely quiet, perhaps Mr. Peteng can control his Aura."
Suddenly the old man's soul body began to disappear.
"Hing...."
Seeing the black wolf was sad and looked old man was also sad to see it.
"You must not be sad, maybe we will meet again and please take good care, Mr. Peteng."
"Your...!"
Hearing that, the old man immediately smiled and disappeared completely from this place.
...•••...
After a few minutes they both meditated....
"How is Mr Peteng, do you feel the abundant power within you?"
I woke up and tried to bring out my Aura.
Buh...!
"Eh? I made it?"
I saw a white aura surrounding me and I felt my body getting lighter as well.
"I guessed it, although you are not blessed with a strong body to hold Mana, but you are blessed with a strong soul to make you live longer."
"A strong soul...."
When I heard that somehow my feelings got worse, because the ability of this system is to use free souls as I please and I have also eaten innocent souls many times.
"The main source of Aura is besides a strong soul, but we also have to have great self-control starting from the mental, mind and body. If any of it you don't master, then there's only serious injury to your soul and body."
"What are the Aura's abilities revolving around only in our bodies and the things we hold?"
"Aura is not like Mana, because Mana is created from nature around us, and while Aura is created from within ourselves in other words 'Home-made Mana.' The use of Aura is very limited because excessive use will only burden you, therefore the importance of training our soul and body as much as possible."
"That's it, but what happens if Mana and Aura are put together?"
"There will be a great rejection, meaning that Mana and Aura have their own properties. The aura is managed by the soul within us who is in charge of protecting the body and self-awareness, only a few people can manage the Aura to such a high level as Aura can function as a loose energy weapon like Mana, just like Aura, whereas Mana has many functions to our body so it is easy to manage various things such as being able to turn it into fire out of the body, protectors, reinforcement and others. But, I've heard of someone successfully uniting Mana and Aura simultaneously, I don't know if it's true or not."
After hearing that made me understand that humans can be strong in their own way without the help of outsiders though.
"Perhaps without the help of the system I can also be very powerful."
I saw Mr. Adrian staring at the wall clock.
"It seems that the visiting time is up, you better come back before the sisters come." While getting on the bed. "It's a pity that I want to talk to you longer, but come to me at any time and I'll welcome you with pleasure."
"Thank you for your help so far, I'm so grateful to have met you."
I immediately walked towards the door, but my steps stopped and turned around again.
"Sir, about my abilities at the time...."
"You don't have to say it now, I know you have a good reason to hide it. But, you should not hide it too long, because many people will misinterpret you later."
"Thank you for the advice." I opened the door slowly and closed it again.
Cracks....
Instantly the atmosphere became silent and there was only the sound of a wall clock continuing to sound, the wind pierced through the small sidelines of the window curtains to make it lift slightly.
"Being very strong yes, from the beginning the boy was already very strong compared to everyone I met, but I felt a very deep sadness from him. I hope his suffering wasn't the reason for making him what he is now."
...•••...
As I walked again down the hospital aisle after heading to the administration to buy medicine just in case Rena and Reno still felt pain again.
While walking towards the twins room, I saw a person in red clothes enter my sisters room.
"Who is he?"
Being anxious I rushed straight to it, when I got to the door I opened it.
Cracks....
The red-clothed man immediately turned around and looked towards me.
"He's...!"
Seeing his face made me a little surprised, because we had passed each other once in the forest.
"Did he come here because he already knew that I finished all those Hidden Dungeons?"
"So you are, Mr. Arkha Peteng. Let me introduce you to Rian Kasim, the branch leader of the red-handed Si guild in the west."
He introduced himself politely and respectfully to me, but still I was uncomfortable being around him because the Mana emanating from him was so powerful. I had seen him when I first met him back then and now I could feel a strong pressure from him.
"Do you have any business with me?"
"Oh, it turns out that he is a very calm person in front of me, only this time I saw a person this calm and again, but I can faintly sense a little of it since coming face to face with him. He's really great at hiding that much power without being caught by my censors" the man thought as he watched the man before him closely. "Sorry, I thought you knew me already, I gave my card to your girl friend."
"Name card? I didn't take the card."
"Maybe your friend forgot to give it to you, but my arrival here is something I'd like to talk to you about personally."
Hearing that I already understood what his purpose was to come to me, whereas I had been hiding well but he was a Rank-A who had a sensitivity to Mana and a strong censorship of Mana as well. I don't forget this guy who's the strategist of the Red Hero's guild.
"Alright, you two don't be naughty and listen to what Zara said, Big Brother wants to talk to her first."
"Good!"
"Good!"
Eventually we both came out of this room and went to a cafe near this hospital.
"Does the great guild want to recruit him? Given Arkha's great ability, surely the great guilds will seize him, I hope Mr. Adrian invites him into our guild as well."
...•••...
Arriving at a nearby cafe....
I was invited into a room in my opinion closed and quiet from the outside sound, and the glasses man entered again into this room while carrying two cups of coffee.
"Please drink, sir." Give me that glass.
"Thank you." I took it and drank it.
The man immediately sat on the other seat and drank his coffee straight away. Silence occurred between us and no one had started the conversation first until the last drop of coffee was shredded by me.
"Sorry, it seems that the atmosphere here is very tense, I will start the conversation first. I'll get straight to the point, you're not the one who finished all the Hidden Dungeons?"
The deg!
Instantly I unconsciously showed a cautious attitude to him and made the atmosphere in this room even more tense.
"So he's the one, my gut feeling is absolutely right. He has made it through three major events so far and I have all my subordinates ask for information regarding him, first the 'Pathitic Dungeon,' secondly implicating him in the death of the entire group from Gilang Himar, the, the third one who had recently been said to have successfully completed a dungeon had suddenly appeared in an elementary school, and it was successfully completed and saved the children stuck with the old man. He managed to survive the three major incidents when he was only Venandi Rank-F, and suddenly a mysterious figure with great abilities appeared right in front of me while in the forest. Only one can I deduce the similarity of these two people other than their Mana is the same but the physical traits are also the same, with hidden great abilities that mean he is a 'fake person' or... the person who has experienced a sudden super-increase and such a person is commonly called 'Incarnation.'"
Glup!
I was getting claustrophobic with him because I couldn't escape his grasp, because my sentence was not over.
"Sorry, sorry, it makes you uncomfortable, I didn't come here about you finishing all those dungeons, but we're still thankful that you got it done before the crack."
Hearing that made me a little relieved, but my vigilance should not be decreased as the threat was still coiled around my neck.
"Do you only know about this?"
"Yes, don't worry, I'm the only one who knows it and I haven't told this to our guild Master."
"Then you came to see me because it wasn't about the dungeon, so what?"
The man put down his coffee glass after drinking and said:
"I want to invite you to join our guild, how are you interested? We will pay high fees based on the ability of each member."
After hearing that made me quite surprised, because there are many people who can enter the big guilds and work there. In addition to the large salaries in the can, people can get many privileges such as high quality free combat equipment, insurance coverage due to accidents in the dungeon and various others.
"Maybe with this I can earn a lot of money without having to painstakingly hunt, but...."
Now a great thing has climbed up my back and it cannot escape again until death picks me up, now I am a "Heredist," a man responsible for the salvation of mankind from "They" before coming to ruin this Earth.
"Sorry, Mr. Kasim, I can't."
"I thought he would answer that." While pulling out something behind the red suit. "Then, please accept this, there will soon be a three-day event there and please present you as my personal guest."
I accepted the gift and when I picked it up was just a ticket with their guild logo.
"Sanjaya University..., do you want me to come here?"
"Yes, considering you are so young, maybe you are interested in going to college and you can look around our campus, there may be a major you want there."
"This is a special university of people who have been '
Resurrected, can ordinary people also enter here?"
"Our Master wants to build a learning center for newly awakened people so that they do not use their abilities wrongly later, for ordinary people we have built a special university for ordinary people as well. You don't worry about the cost, our university is not determined high, middle and lower classes, but everything is flat. Because our Master upholds education and the cost of our Master does not bother about it, instead he said this as his motto 'Money? Money is just a parasite in education, therefore education must be the main thing and make your own money through education, ' he said."
"Your masters are very unique...."
"Well..that's how he is, so you're coming?"
I looked at the black ticket with this golden pattern and looked at it for a moment.
"There's no harm in looking around, right." Keep that ticket in my jacket pocket. "I'll come."
"Good then, thank you for taking your time, I think you've taken a lot of your time."
"It's okay." I got up straight from my seat. "I'm thankful that you didn't reveal my secret."
I immediately walked towards the door of this room and walked out of this quiet room.
"A very wonderful young man."
...•••...
A moment outside the cafe....
I looked at the sky and it was very bright.
"Eventually this system could be opened again, I had to take Rena and Reno for a walk to the amusement park, to make them have fun because they were bored in the hospital constantly."
