128. My gift

The motorcyclist celebrated his victory after fighting Mulyadi. He and other members of Genk Klinting are convinced that the village chief of Ndalangili has now been killed due to the strength of the attack he received.

However, inside the messy house, Mulyadi still survived despite her severe condition. Mulyadi was unable to move her body, and there was a gaping hole in her chest.

From the top of the roof, Aura came down and approached Mulyadi. "I came to give you a gift" he said, pointing out the prosthetic leg he had made. Mulyadi was surprised to see the prosthetic leg made by Aura, the thing looked suitable for her, however...

"I really appreciate your gift, but it seems like everything is meaningless" Mulyadi said in a hoarse voice. Several times he coughed up blood before finally finishing his sentence.

The roar of the engine and the horn sound that sounded outside suddenly stopped. Mulyadi felt a bad premonition regarding this, her premonition proved to be true when Aura explained about the death ritual performed by Genk Klinting.

"I see, so they came here just to commit a massacre. I think this is the end of this village" Mulyadi resigned to the fate of his village. He only hoped to die soon before he heard the heart-wrenching cries and wails of his citizens about to be executed.

"How can you give up when there's still a way to save everyone?"

Aura placed a prosthetic leg on the severed leg of Mulyadi. Once paired, Mulyadi can feel his energy being absorbed by the device which is increasingly emitting light. The incident occurred only a moment later, after which Mulyadi felt his legs had returned as before.

"Unbelievably, I feel like my legs have returned to how they were before," Mulyadi smiled widely, but given the current state, "It's a pity, if only I had gotten a gift from you sooner. I can definitely defeat Genk Klinting, but unfortunately it's too late now, I can't survive this wound."

Mulyadi felt these were the last moments of her life. The wounds he had sustained looked fatal so it was impossible to be healed with Potions from Aura.

"Which injuries?" chirping Aura left Mulyadi astonished, the young man thought the girl who looked like a stranger in front of him was currently joking.

'How could he not see the wound on my chest that was so severe?' mulyadi thought before she realized an oddity, 'The pain is gone?' Mulyadi tried to touch the wound on her chest, she did not feel her palms wet with blood, nor did she feel any pain from the open wound.

"What really happened?" the young man became so shocked to find that the hole in his chest had already disappeared as if he had never been injured. However, the scars on the skin of the chest and the clothes that were seen prove that the wounds that Mulyadi had previously experienced were not just hallucinations.

***

"Have you healed me?" mulyadi asked curiously. His previously weak body was now healing quickly, and Mulyadi carefully tried to stand up. He managed to do so, the young man felt comfort in the prosthetic leg that Aura had made.

"It's not entirely true, but yes, I healed you," Aura replied with a mysterious smile. The girl fearlessly revealed the secret she was hiding. The parasite he had planted on Mulyadi's body turned out to be part of his plan to save the village.

Mulyadi was shocked to hear that Aura had infected her and the entire village of Ndalangili through the food she gave free of charge. Anger flashed through Mulyadi's mind, feeling deceived by this girl. However, he was still able to control his emotions and chose to ask the reason behind his actions.

"I just don't like to do something in vain" Aura replied calmly, leaving Mulyadi in a daze. The young man wondered what exactly was the meaning of this girl's words?

"The world is becoming more violent after a night of meteor showers. Death happens every day, so it becomes commonplace" explained Aura, showing a deep understanding of the situation that is happening.

Aura wanted to make sure that the help she provided to the villagers would not be in vain. He is confident that the village of Ndalangili will not be able to survive without external assistance amid the deteriorating conditions of the world.

Mulyadi began to understand the reason behind Aura's actions. He realized that he would not be able to protect this village alone, even though now the false legs of Aura's giving had made him return to normal, but still he would not be able to protect everyone with his own strength.

"I just want to get good karma, that's all," Aura said sincerely, trying to convince Mulyadi. However, Aura's statement reinforces Mulyadi's belief that Aura...

“Can you read my mind?” mulyadi asked trying to dispel her curiosity.

“Yes, I can read the minds of others within a certain limit" charcoal replied lightly as if she had no intention of hiding her powers in front of Mulyadi.

This made Mulyadi even more doubtful about the true identity of this girl. Is Aura really human?, Aura chuckled faintly hinting if she had heard Mulyadi's thoughts.

"Are we just going to keep quiet here and chat?" aura asked, reminding Mulyadi of their current priorities. The time is not much, the villagers are still in danger because of the threat from Genk Klinting.

Bright light and hot air enter the room. One member of Genk Klinting entered with a jerry can filled with gasoline. Mulyadi realizes that this Genk member intends to burn down his house.

"Oh, it turns out that there are still two sacrificial goats here" said member Genk Klinting with an evil smile, while removing a machete tied to his back.

With high confidence the Genk members asked Aura and Mulyadi to come with him with various threats, until the Genk members began to get angry because the two just stared at him in silence.

“Damn it, are you guys mannequin dolls or something!” with emotion members of Genk Klinting attacked.

Mulyadi intercepted the Genk members' attacks. There was a short fight, in which Mulyadi managed to defeat him with a hard blow using his stick. The Genk members fell unconscious.

Aura, who witnessed the fight was impressed by Mulyadi's fighting ability, but she also commented on Mulyadi's decision not to kill the Genk Klinting members who intended to kill him.

"I only do it because of efficiency" Mulyadi said for a simple reason.

Mulyadi intends to get out of his house to help his citizens who are in danger because of Genk Klinting. However, his steps came to a halt when he saw Aura doing something to the members of Genk Klinting whom he had fainted with.

"This is my Gift"

A worm emerged from the hole in Aura's palm, causing Mulyadi to goosebumps in horror. This strange sight made him unable to bear it. However, Aura only gave a small smile, as if laughing at Mulyadi's inability to accept things that Aura considered ordinary.

"Want to see something more interesting?" aura Goda. Suddenly, the body of Genk Klinting members began to tremble viciously. The man's face reflected uncontrollable shock and pain.

Their mouths moved, but the sound that came out was only silent. From the body shape that swells, until a mutation turns it into a terrible figure. Seeing Mulyadi could feel how painful the process they were going through was.

Seeing the transformation directly from human to monster made Mulyadi feel frightened. He was afraid that the worm parasites that had spread to him and the other villagers would turn them into similar monsters.

"Yes, you will experience the same thing," Aura said casually, watching with satisfaction.
