It won’t be a problem, he said. Arifin knows he can deal with the rest of those mercenaries. But a fight with them is something he wants to avoid. Because he has his own agenda.  He walks nonchalantly approaching those people who are still in hectic helping their comrades. As they notice Arifin, they immediately surround him by pointing their submachine guns.  “Who are you?”  “What business do you have here??”  “Stupid! He is one of the awakened people! He has killed quite many of us. Don’t let your guard down. He can kill you at any moment.”  “Hey, hey! I’m not here to start a fight,” Arifin interferes. “Where’s your boss? I came voluntarily ‘cause I think you want to recruit someone like me.”  And then, Arifin sees the man named Parjo, the

Finishing with this rally morning, they let these soldier candidates get back to their respective rooms to take a shower. When Arifin gets back to his room, he finds Andrew is still sleeping in his bed.  It doesn’t seem like Andrew gets any penalty or punishment for not joining the morning rally. Which of course raises Arifin’s curiosity.  “Do they like you so much that they don’t even punish you for not joining that morning rally?”  Or course, Andrew won’t give any response to him. He is still looking so wasted sleeping in a terrible position.  A moment later, two guards come to the room. One of them offers Arifin a few changes of clothes. He really gets treated well here like an honorable guess. Even the way that guard behaves looks so different from their behavior while supervising the morning rally.  “We will

Arifin takes off his jacket by still keeping his mystical kris hiden, and puts it on one of the corners inside that octagon. He takes that sparring session without putting any stance at all.Javier starts it by sending several quick jabs by changing its pattern. Despite that, Arifin is able to evade all the incoming jabs easily, solely depending on his reflex that has been honed after so many battle experiences.“Damn, he isn’t going easy with me,” mumbles Arifin as he finds the sparring is actually harder than what he expected.As Javier feels like he has memorized Arifin’s pattern in evading his jabs, he sets a trap by preparing his right knuckle. He sends another normal jab as a decoy, intending to welcome Arifin with a strong right soon after Arifin gets away from his jab.Arifin eats the bait, ‘cause he has only been too occupied by those left jabs. Just as he moves his head to the left, he notices a right knuckle from Javier already so close to his face.“Got you!”But something

No one dares to get closer to Arifin, despite there’s only one guard armed with automatic rifles guarding him there. The problem is, there are so many other guards on the top of the wall around that area. All of them can just act according to the situation if anyone is trying to do something to Arifin.However, after a few hours being tied there, that girl named Elsie approaches Arifin by bringing a bottle of water. That one guard looks so alert and halts her. But Elsie insists by only showing her cold gaze, still by holding the bottle in front of her chest.“Come on! It’s just water,” says Billy from a distance, standing confidently by crossing his arms in front of his chest as he keeps watching over her daughter. “That kid saved her life before. Let her pay the debt.”That guard knows that Billy is the top candidate in the leaderboard solely based on physical prowess. And he knows that Dr. Cohen has treated him specially well so far.He then takes a look at Elsie a moment, and belie

She turns around, trying to observe the situation inside that concentration camp. She focuses on doing what she needs to do. But then she starts worrying, how is she supposed to get back into her own body.“Not to mention this body is already in so much fatigue. It’s hard to just stay awake,” she whines.“I’ve told you! Just take a rest. You’ve been here since last night,” says the other guard.Minda is a bit confused. She makes the one guard that she controls look so stupid with his blank face.“Ah, okay! I’ll leave now,” she replies by nodding her head a few times.She takes the staircase to get down. But then she suddenly notices Arifin being tied up in the middle of the outfield gym.“Oh, no! Arifin?!”Without thinking much, she just rushes to him. But soon before she gets closer to Arifin, one guard startles her.“What are you doing here?”“Uh, I, um… I just want to take a look at this one hostage.”“Stupid. Didn’t you follow what was happening here? He is not a hostage. He is on
