Back From the Apocalyptic Future 013 - The Source Of Trouble
Arifin only shakes his head because of her awkwardness. Despite the fact that they are the same age, Arifin sees her like a kid. He then goes to the bedroom, and takes a look at his appearance in the mirror. He touches his hair and starts thinking about that oddity. A moment later, he remembers about something else. “Oh, right! I need to buy a skipping rope.” He takes out his scooter and leaves the house to visit a sports store in a mall downtown. Before purchasing a skipping rope, he happens to see a stadiometer. He can’t help but to be curious by what Minda had said before. “Excuse me, Sir! Can I use this for a moment?” “Oh, sure!” answers the shopkeeper. “It seems like you are a sports enthusiast. At your age, you need to keep monitoring your growth. It’s important to avoid injury in training.” Arifin just smiles awkwardly. From what he knows from his previous life, he stayed at 162-163 cm since he was 17 until he reached 28. He thinks that he doesn’t need to worry about that,
Back From the Apocalyptic Future 014 - Optional Quest
But Arifin doesn’t give any response. He doesn’t even take a look at them, keeping his gaze straight to those seniors. Nathan and his friends are coming, looking for a place to sit at the back. But Arifin is still standing there, looking so stand out with his silver hair, acting so nonchalantly like he doesn’t give a damn to anyone. It attracts some chuckles from those seniors. They even start making a joke about Arifin wearing a wig. That tomboy girl named Hannah steps forward. Her right hand is so firm on the waist, while her left hand is now pointing at Minda with so much arrogance. “You! The sunny-side-dish girl! Come here!” Minda is startled. She immediately tidies herself. She checks her condition first before answering that call. However, right before she gets up, Arifin immediately prevents her. “Minda! Just stay there!” And so, Minda just sits back albeit with some awry written in her face. And of course, it attracts Hannah’s attention. Some other seniors also get up an
Back From the Apocalyptic Future 015 - I Need No Excuses
The rest of them look so alert despite the fact they outnumber Arifin. Amongst them, there are still six boys with holograms above their heads, which only Arifin can see. While the other seniors who are not marked as the targets have already distanced themselves away. Arifin still isn’t giving any response to that optional quest. He simply tries to calm his mind, and holds that small pipe like he is holding a kodachi. “One meter!” he says. It makes those seniors a bit confused with his words. “That’s my reach with this pipe,” Arifin continues. “If you want to take this wig off, feel free to enter my territory.” That warning only provokes their anger. They look annoyed, to see Arifin acting so arrogant in giving them a threat. “Don’t get so full of yourself, kid!” One guy from the right approaches Arifin recklessly. As soon as he steps on Arifin’s territory, the pipe already hits his head. Another dude comes from Arifin’s left side, intending to kick him. “Let’s see if you can r
Back From the Apocalyptic Future 016 - A Man's Pride
Both Hannah and Ronald nod with unsure faces. Prof. Harun slowly averts his attention to Prof. Irwan by raising one of his eyes a little. As a matter of fact, this Professor Harun is the Chief of the Chemistry Department. While Professor Irwan, the Dean of the Faculty, is a Professor in the field of Physics. Most people in the science faculty are well aware of the fierce competition between these two professors in fighting for the position of the Dean Faculty. And they never shy away from showing their friction in front of others. “Are you going to punish him?” asks Prof. Harun. “Do you have the nerve to do that to our Chief of Student Association?” “I had abolished this kind of activity two years ago. How come these students are still able to do it under my noses?” replies Prof. Irwan rhetorically with a cold face. “This is an issue in our Chemistry Department,” argues Prof. Harun. “With all due respect, let me handle this matter.” “No, it's okay,” Prof. Irwan denies immediately
Back From the Apocalyptic Future 017 - Regret
Tony averts his attention, and sees a peaceful face that is always able to sooth his soul and makes him calm. She is a biology student, his girlfriend since high school. “Cindy? It’s because of you, I accidentally swallowed something.” “Haaah?” The girl immediately becomes panicked. “I’m sorry! I didn’t mean to surprise you. What did you swallow?” Tony’s face looks so blank. That crystal has been immediately melted as it entered his esophagus. Right now, it already makes his chest a bit warm. He ceases that girl’s worry, yet he is still looking confused and clueless about that crystal. “Anyway, what about tomorrow?” asks the girl. “My friends and I have a plan to see your next game.” “I’m sorry, Cindy!” replies Tony with a gloomy face. “I won’t be able to join the competition tomorrow. My leg…” He suddenly becomes silent, noticing something wrong with him. But the girl is already looking so worried because of his words. “What? What happened to your leg?” She takes a look, and
Back From the Apocalyptic Future 018 - False Prediction
Arifin only treats Tony flatly. Despite how hard Tony tries to put on an act that he no longer has any issue after that fight, Arifin still isn’t showing any interest in talking with him. The thing is, Arifin has had some trust issues with people since the incident in that odd shrine. And it has only been getting worse after the treatment she has had so far. It can be said that he is all alone now. And he has no intention to trust anyone at the moment. Yet, Tony keeps trying to get to his good side. “You can judge me as worst as you like. I apologize that I joined the others in ganging up on you. I was provoked when you beat six duded in that office.” Tony raises both hands, and then gets up from the chair to take his leave. He even offers to pay for Arifin’s drink. But Arifin denies his offer. “Are you thinking you can change my mind by paying for this drink?” It makes Tony’s face a bit tired because of that sarcastic rhetoric. “Anyway, what was that you gave to me the other day
Back From the Apocalyptic Future 019 - An Advice
Because of this, they are back to their previous assumption, that Arifin is wrong, and there won’t be any other similar occurrence that will happen in their city. But a few of them keep talking about it, speculating that this kind of phenomenon hasn’t ended yet, and another meteor could just hit their city next week. At least, they only talk about it on their private social media groups, which prevents it from being a trending topic on a wider scale. And Arifin, he spends most of his time sleeping the whole day. He knows how important that blood crystal is, and intends to collect it tonight. “I better save my stamina for now, and let this fucking system give me a penalty.” That afternoon, he prepares himself with some isotonic drinks and snacks. He even put his first aid kit into the backpack. There is also a headband with an LED flashlight, to help him to see in the dark. The plan is to get into the jungle before the system gives him the penalty. That way, he won’t harm other peo
Back From the Apocalyptic Future 020 - Restless Night
This one dedemit isn’t that aggressive. And Arifin can easily cut its head using his katana. He observes that dedemit’s body for a while, expecting that he would get that blood crystal. But finds nothing. His enthusiasm begins to wane a little, realizing that he has to rely on his luck. He slays more, and more. But he still doesn’t get that blood crystal. Until suddenly, one dedemit creature ambushes him from behind the bushes, and manages to scratch his left arm. “Shit! This fucker!” It screams at Arifin with a mad face by showing off his sharp ugly teeth. Unlike the others, this one is more aggressive and more cunning. What’s more, Arifin also finds it a bit harder to target this one’s neck to cut its head. It's like this one creature has more intelligence than the rest. He has to hit whatever spot of its body part that he can hit with the sword. After limiting the dedemit’s movements by cutting one of its leg, only then Arifin stabs its head. He finishes that one, but he hims
