The Metal Military Academy
Chapter 80: Regan is Back

The next night in the boys' dorm unit, Ardan and Rafa are playing their favorite dueling game on their mobile phones, while Damar is busy fiddling with his laptop data.

“Aish! Jengglot-kun's time lost again, anyway..?” sighed Ardan exasperated while sitting on the bed.

Rafa who had just won a duel against Ardan's character showed his victory score to the orange-haired youth.

“I told you, the character of Jengglot-kun is dregs. Kayak me, dong, wear Jelangkung-sensei. Character is OP severe.” Rafa raised his eyebrows, feeling proud of himself.

“Ish, satan ‘lah! I'm really glad I played this game.”

“People who don't want to say no lose definitely say ‘kek so.” Rafa giggles himself. “Oh, yes. What if we change the game? We play Serberan games: Dungeons and Darkness sure.”

“Server?” Ardan tried to remember the game in question. “Not an RPG, survival-horror game, yak?”

“Iye. You want to play no game? Let one of our teams,” asked Rafa to Ardan.

“But ‘kan, one team must have three members.”

Then, Rafa looked towards Damar who was still busy with a laptop. “Mar, would you like to come with us? Tomorrow we are in class, you know.”

Yes, because the Orientation Period is over, tomorrow they will enter a new school year where they will start studying at the academy again after the semester break.

Damar shook his head, but his gaze was still focused on the laptop monitor. “No, lah. Check my material program again. Afraid that there will be an impromptu machine assembly test.”

“Ah, yes. You ‘kan from the Department of Military Electronics Engineering,” said Ardan trying to understand.

“Woi!”

The three of them instantly jumped in shock upon hearing the impromptu scream of someone in front of the door of their unit.

When it opened, the unit's door revealed a tall, casually dressed youth figure with long silver hair left unraveled dragging a suitcase into the unit.

“What is this Regan...? Come-come kayak to fuss aja,” Ardan's nagging while stroking his ears that feel uncomfortable after hearing Regan yell.

“I just want your life.” With the peda, Regan asked, “Is there anything missing?”

“Now!” said Ardan and Rafa simultaneously. After that, they even laughed while fighting boxing, feeling happy to bully Regan.

With sewot Regan sneering, “Gini-gini really has a friend. Just back homecoming, no one greeted warmly.”

“If you want to be greeted warmly, let me spray your face with hard water,” led Rafa while sharing a nosy smile.

“Kok hard water anyway? You're a psychopath, Raf.”

And Rafa only replied with a laugh, so did Ardan who followed up laughing at Regan's irritated response.

“Udah back to you, Gan,” said Damar turned his eyes to Regan. “Therefore, not?”

It's more upset that Regan was asked that. “Nih tuyul this one too! People are tired from long trips, even asked for by-by.”

“Well, how about sewot?” damar felt innocent.

“Salahin noh those two lizards!” Regan pointed at Rafa and Ardan who were still laughing on their respective beds. “Udah irritated me aja.”

“Ahahaha.... Okay, okay.” Ardan tried to wipe away his laughing tears. “Where to go, Gan?”

“Currently, but tired.”

Regan put her suitcase beside the bed, then immediately lay her body on the bed.

“How are you guys? Orientation event yesterday cool, not?” Regan supports the back of the head using both hands.

“Asik. But it's normal, mah. There are bitter-sweet,” replied Ardan soberly.

“Actually, I've been coming back from three days yesterday, all you want to join the fun Student Orientation Event,” said Regan, “But, my grandmother doesn't ngizinin. He said he still misses his favorite grandson. Forced, deh, the reverse is only now.”

“Aish.... Very dear, Gan. You missed a lot of the fun.” Damar starts closing the laptop, wanting to spend some free time tonight chatting with his three full friends.

“Serious?” Regan looked enthusiastic. “Stories, dong. The story. How was the activity yesterday?”

They also began to tell about what they lived at the Student Orientation Period Activities carried out during these three days, ranging from new juniors to the closing ceremony yesterday evening.

They seemed to smile, laugh together, even while throwing taps during a chat together. It feels so good to be back together with friends in this unit.

We can share stories and laugh at happiness.

....

The view of the men's dormitory and the academy building across there began to be quiet because the night was getting late, surely the students had started to rest in their respective units.

However, his blue eyes narrowed when he saw that someone was sitting on the roof of one of the academy buildings.

“Thu cute girl, malem-malem kok sitting alone on the roof kayak kuntilanak?” muttered Regan was curious.

“Napa, Gan?” asked Rafa who was still leaning on the bed when he heard Regan muttering.

“Entu, Raf. There's girls hanging out at night on the rooftops of the academy building.”

“Seriously? Don't-don't be a demon, again,” said Ardan idly.

Damar said exasperatedly to Ardan, “You are, Dan.... Make goosebumps aja.”

Rafa again asked, “Emang kayak how the hell is the girl? It's late at night, but there's still something that's running around.”

Regan looked back at the figure from that distance, trying to look at his physical features.

“Pastya she chick, wear a grey jacket, same hair item. His skin also looks clear. His face is plain flat. Daydreaming while looking at the sky as you see the angel of death.”

“Eh?”

Ardan gasped when he realized the physical features Regan described. Hurriedly he got up from the bed, ran to the balcony, and had pushed Regan away, then helped try to see clearly who the figure on the other side was.

“Eh, bekantan! Why even play push-push..?” sewot Regan while stroking her waist which was pushed by Ardan. Almost he fell down if only the balance is not good.

Damar who was surprised also asked, “You why, Dan? Just panic at you.”

“Dek Chrysanthemum.” Ardan pointed across. “Entu Chrysanthemum Deck, shucks!”

“Whose Chrysanthemum Deck?” ask Regan who still does not know who is meant.

“Crysanthemum, Gan.” With a casual reply Rafa, “Junior our academy, gebetan Ardan.”

“Woooh..!” Regan was immediately amazed. “From so many centuries tired of seeing you in a girl, finally you yourself have the initiative to deketin chick.”

“Iye, Gan.” Fad Rafa said nosily, “Cuman, this girl is hard to get snatched. Not sensitive’ mulu.”

Damar laughed when he heard Rafa's words.

“Ish! What are you, Raf?” sewot Ardan's. “I want samperin him, gih. Don't baek girls alone these nights.”

“Ngapain? Precisely if there is you, the more danger,” seductive Damar.

“Semprul you, Mar!”

Unconcerned about the plunge of his friends, with great physical ability, Ardan jumped from the balcony and jumped again through one building to another to reach the roof of the academy building.

“Dih, even sprayed me,” said Damar.

Rafa shook his hand as he moved out of the bed. “Let ajalah, people again kasmaran. You also often mess around like that ‘kan if you meet Nadia?”

“Aish, Raf...”

Rafa and Regan laugh together to see Damar sewot but shy cat when mentioned about the scene.

...~*~*~*~...

In the darkness of the night, in solitude and loneliness on the roof of the academy building. Chrysanthemum sat hugging both legs while looking up at the bright starry sky.

For some reason, when he saw the expanse of stars in the sky that looked like sugar powder on a ripe bread, he felt calm and remembered his hometown.

Chrysanthemums became curious, as how are the Father, Mother, and Brother Henri. Are they okay? In the safe village?

“Hmm...”.

“Crystal Pack!”

Spontaneous Chrysanthemum turned his head, finding the figure of a young man wearing only pants and a middle black singlet shirt jumping from one building to another, darting towards him.

The black haired girl was astonished. How come the senior suddenly approached him here?

“Senior Ardan?”
