Zidane was surprised by his opponent this time. His face was similar to his. They were like an areca nut halved in two."You? Who are you?" asked Zidane.The man in front of him did not answer and immediately attacked him. Zidane swiftly dodged. The man continued to attack aggressively. He didn't give Zidane a moment to breathe. Zidane continued to dodge without wanting to retaliate.Zidane jumped far away to retreat. While catching his breath, Zidane still wanted to know the man in front of him."Who are you? Why do you look like me?" Zidane shouted out loud.The man didn't answer. He had the sword in his right hand. Then, he put the sword into its sheath. Jumped into the bushes and moved away from Zidane."Wait!" cried Zidane in pursuit.He ran quickly in the direction the man had jumped. However, the man disappeared. Thousands of questions came to Zidane."Who is he? Why is this place so different?" asked Zidane in surprise.If before he was in the virtual world of the game, this
Zidane ate with his head full of thoughts."Hey, eat up! Shove your rice in your mouth, Zidane!" Ben exclaimed.That startled Zidane. It was like being pulled back into reality."Yes, Ben!" Zidane stuffed mouthful after mouthful into his mouth."Ben?""What?" Ben turned his head."Thanks for making me come back!" Zidane said seriously."Haha, sounds funny, Zidane. Did you have a weird dream?" Ben asked laughing."Yes, that's right. I went into the forest, there was nothing and I didn't know how to get back. I was hungry and thirsty.""Of course you were hungry and thirsty. You haven't eaten in over 24 hours. Do you remember when you came? Yesterday afternoon!" Ben exclaimed seriously.Zidane gulped. Time passed the same. That meant that if he was stuck in that world, he would be like suspended animation here in the real world."It's already the next night, naturally you're hungry and thirsty. Really, I thought you were just tired, but seeing you not moving, I was worried. Sorry, I sp
"Andreas is gone!" Ben exclaimed once again.Zidane was stunned. He thought for a moment. His head was filled with questions."Zidane, look! They're selling Goeshty shares. Very low. But why buy it? There will be a loss. It's never been a good stock!" Ben shook his head. Talking as he walked away from the crowd of people still talking about Andreas."Zidane!" Ben called out again."Aa yes Ben. What?""What happened to you? You've been daydreaming a lot. Do you want to buy shares in Zhewty? It's going up next week. Yes, it's a bit expensive, but you know Zhewty right? They always know which ones will become money fields. I have a little money, I'll invest it in stocks, and then I'll....."Zidane wasn't listening to Ben. His mind was still on Andreas. Did Andreas disappear and enter the game world? Oh no. How did he get out? Andreas must be very confused."So are you coming? Didn't you say there was money in the ATM yesterday. Let's use it!" Zidane wasn't listening to Ben. He was bus
"Did you make my resume look bad, Ben? You did that?" Zidane asked impatiently."What? What resume?" Ben asked indifferently. His hands were still busy with the latest flat object in his hand."I applied for a job and no one would accept me. They said my resume was bad. How did they know I was bad, if not from my previous employer? So it was you who made it, right, Ben? Why?"Zidane was about to let out his anger. His hands were already clenched. Usually he could still hold back anger no matter how painful it was. But somehow lately he seemed to have lost control of himself. His hands were firmly clenched ready to kick Ben's ass. He still gave him time to explain."Don't accuse me so carelessly, Zidane! You've known me for a long time. I wouldn't have done that to you either. I also hope you can get a job. Why would I do that? I want you to rise up too." Ben also got emotional hearing Zidane accuse him of that. Not feeling like he'd done anything bad to Zidane, Ben got to thinking.
HoshHoshZidane stopped his running. The person was no longer in front of him. Suddenly the person disappeared, even though Zidane was sure he was right behind him.Wush"Who are you?"The person in the black robe appeared in front of him. Her voice sounded like a woman. Her face was covered with a veil. Her eyes were also invisible because they were covered by a wide-brimmed hat."I'm Zidane! Who are you? Are you also a knight?""Hahaha. Knight? So you're a knight huh? But why does your face look so much like the Sovereign?""The Sovereign?"CringThe woman in front of him drew the long sword on the left side of her body and prepared to attack Zidane. Zidane swiftly dodged every sword pointed at him.Zidane then punched the woman in the chest. The woman appeared to bounce away and hit the trees. About 10 meters away from Zidane. The woman didn't seem to want to attack anymore and took off her cap. Zidane then approached her and intended to talk, he wanted to know what was really goi
With full force, Zidane drew the sword in his hand. He immediately climbed onto the monster's back and beat it blindly.The anger and resentment inside him made him repeatedly swing the sword at the chest of the huge monster that could be 100 times bigger than him.The sword swung repeatedly, but it didn't make the monster fall. With a powerful move, Zidane pressed the sword into the chest, right at the heart. That caused the body to immediately fall, along with Zidane who was on top of it.Zidane remained on the bloodied and motionless body. His eyes looked up at the sky. His thoughts were scattered.SreeeetA small knife with a length of 5 cm flew almost into Zidane's nose. That made Zidane prepare for another attack.He stood up quickly, his eyes alert, preparing to face an unknown opponent."Leave while you still can! What did you come here for? There's nothing you can get here! You'll only be stuck here forever! Leave!"The man suddenly appeared. A face that looked exactly like a
"Exciting news! At 00:00 last night, Goeshty's stock, which hadn't seen a surge in years, suddenly skyrocketed. You should have bought shares in Goeshty yesterday. You could have made a fortune by investing just $1,000 yesterday. Today, the amount of 1000 dollars increased to millions of thousands of dollars!"The newscaster's voice was quite big, Zidane smiled at what the newscaster had just said. He glanced at Ben who seemed to wake up with a shocked face listening to the news. His eyes bulged and looked at Zidane."Zidane, did you invest your money in Goeshty shares yesterday? You heard that! Wow, are you clairvoyant? You invested it? Oh no, I told you not to! So did you do it anyway?" asked Ben frantically.Zidane had something to say about the shares. Yes, of course, now his account is getting fatter because of his investment in Goeshty. He didn't make a wrong move. Fortunately, the notification was not ignored. Now he could be a real billionaire.Ben continued to talk about the
The car was quickly prepared. They wanted to get this over with, the day was still quite bright when Leti's body was prepared to be taken back to the village."Zidane! Is that you?" A voice that Zidane was very familiar with the past few days appeared."Jessie!""What's going on? Where have you been all day? Didn't you see the stock market news? Zidane's success! This is really surprising! " Jessi said happily. She didn't know the sky of sadness was filling Zidane."Yes Jessie, I saw the news. But, didn't it go straight into my account? I left my account number, didn't I? It looks like it went straight in.""Yes, you are right, Zidane. But since this morning, our stock exchange office has been crowded with visitors. Your name has become famous. Ah, no. I meant to keep your name a secret, but they wanted to know who the person was who had dared to buy Goeshty's shares so heavily and successfully. That's all. Fortunately, the head of the office cooperated and kept your name a secret.
"Hey, did you hear what Jason said?" Asked Zidane's men who sat behind the wheel."I didn't hear anything. Look at this game. This is very exciting! Look at me winning again! Hahaa!" Her laughter instantly erupted with excitement. But then paused and gave her friend a quick glance and focused on the game on her phone again."Hey, I wasn't listening to anything earlier. What did Jason say?""No, he didn't. Jason didn't say anything."Meanwhile, in a private hospital ward, a worried look appeared on Stefani's face as she hung up the phone for Clara. Gwen, who didn't know what the two friends were talking about, just stared at Stefani's confused face."Stefani, is everything okay? Did Clara pick up your call?" Gwen asked as she flung herself onto the hospital bed."Yes, Clara picked up my call earlier. Was I wrong to call her? She didn't seem okay. I honestly felt there was something she was hiding. She said she was fine, but...""Let's go to her place and find out!" Invited Gwen immedia
The densely populated residential area with the houses close to each other made the sound very easy to hear. One of Zidane's men's car was parked a few meters away from the house Cassie lived in. Even though it was already a few meters away, the sound of the two people arguing was still quite clearly heard."I was lying in the hospital and almost lost my life. I was there for weeks and you didn't even come to see me. What's wrong?" Jason's shouting could be heard everywhere."What's wrong? You no longer have any power let alone money. Then, what else am I with you for? Do I have to explain every inch of it? I told you, I never want to be with a man who no longer has money!" Cassie shouted not to be outdone."Money? Just because of that? Do you think I no longer have money? I still have everything, Cassie. I still have it! Look at this!" Jason yelled and then took a few wads of money from his pocket and threw it at Cassie's body. It made Cassie's blood boil even more."Take back your m
To save time, Zidane ordered some of his men to go to various places. He informed them of the possibility of Ben's whereabouts.Zidane himself felt very confident that the man was hiding in one of the places. But to be sure, he ordered them all to move simultaneously.Zidane himself went to his uncle and aunt's house. The uncle and aunt of course welcomed him very warmly. The man was a frequent visitor and met them often. They thought that Ben and Zidane still had a very good relationship. Of course, Zidane couldn't say if he was having problems with Ben. He was just visiting and finding out Ben's whereabouts."I haven't seen Ben for a long time, uncle. I also don't know where he lives now. I thought he visited you guys often, so I wanted to ask him where he was at the moment." Obviously Zidane. Of course he was even enjoying his coffee. Even though he was already very angry and wanted to find out immediately where that man was. "Of course, of course you guys would be very rare to me
"Enough Zidane! I never did what you're accusing me of! Never!" Cassie shouted covering her ears with both palms."Whatever! I have the proof. And I'll throw it in your face. But not now. I have to go. Fighting you is a waste of time!" Zidane said coldly. He turned around and prepared to get into the car, but Cassie stopped him."Wait, Zidane. I...""Get out of my way. I don't like hurting women. Especially with rudeness. Do you want to see how rude I am to women?" Zidane said."Your attitude hurt me, Zidane. In the past, you never once raised your voice in my presence. All my wishes were orders to you. You were never like this. Why? Have you forgotten about it? Is there no longer my name in your heart as you often say? You said you would carve my name forever in your heart. Where did that sentence go, Zidane?" Cassie asked with a sad look on her face."You were the one who left Chelsea first, not me. You were the one who erased it first, not me. Do I need to remind you what happened?
As his consciousness returned, Zidane quickly rose to his feet. He checked his surroundings and hoped to find a clue as to who the person was who had brought him to his old home, he also hoped that person was still there. But unfortunately, when he walked through every inch of his house, he found no one."Shit! What on earth happened to me and how did I get here? This makes me have to work twice. The battle in Seiza isn't over yet, but wait a minute, the person who probably brought me here from Meiwa must be someone close to me. But who?"Not wanting to waste any more time, Zidane quickly exited the house and locked it. Returning the key to its original place. "Zidane, are you alright? Should I tell your aunt to make some soup?" A voice reprimanded Zidane when he had just descended the stairs. He turned around and it was Old Man Ginsen."Mr. ginsen? I'm fine. Thank you very much," Zidane said as he shook hands with him. They had not seen each other for a long time and Mr. Ginsen imm
Ben looked lethargic when he returned to Zidane's old residence. He just stared at Zidane's motionless body. Sighing softly, Ben seemed to be in turmoil again.The pressure he had been receiving from Jason lately was really difficult. These past few months, he kept finding it difficult to fulfill Jason's wishes that sounded so very difficult to do. Especially about Zidane. Already having a relationship with Jason that made him very attached, made Benn feel tired.Ben's fatal mistake left him trapped. His adoptive parents were not as rich and powerful as Jason, but they were able to send Ben to a higher level than Zidane could afford. Opening a business, and expanding the business network made Ben not afraid of not being able to eat. But unfortunately, when Zidane was caught up in a dispute with Jason. he was dragged along until finally, he became Jason's accomplice. Threats. The only thing Ben was afraid of. He could never repay his adoptive parents, who were none other than his ow
Ben looked frustrated at Zidane's motionless body. He then approached him and checked Zidane's pulse again."Zidane! Zidane!" Ben called softly but it didn't make Zidane wake up.Ben rubbed his hair roughly. he then chose to leave the room. Leaving Zidane's body that did not wake up. He decided to look for water to drink and instill himself. When he went to the kitchen he found Zidane's neighbor there. Lung. And also some residents. He seemed surprised by their expressions. Unlike the people who seemed to be drowning in hardened mud, Lung and the people in front of him now seemed to be in the middle of an argument and they were instantly silent. "What happened to them? Why is this place so strange. And Zidane, what happened to him? Ah what a headache!" Ben complained as he got some water from the refrigerator and then closed it and left the kitchen.He decided to go to the balcony and settle down to look out over the quiet Meiwa. There was no sight of the hustle and bustle of the v
After Jason and his people left. Ben could only sit down while holding his head which suddenly throbbed with pain. He didn't think of any steps. However, Jason's threatening words could not be ignored. If he could ignore it, he wouldn't have heeded any of Jason's orders since yesterday."What should I do now? No one knows Zidane's whereabouts. Until today. Where exactly is he?"Not wanting to wait and waste time, and immediately left for Zidane's house. The elite housing estate was now able to welcome him, since he had become one of the permanent employees at Zidane's company. But since becoming an employee, not once had Ben had the opportunity to meet his boss in person.The mansion was never quiet. Even when this host wasn't around, the activities were still going well. James organized them all very well.Bennampak admired the credibility that the man had. James did everything very well. Organizing all his subordinates so that they do all their obligations even without direct super
The battle intensified. Even more so when they learned that the empress had died. The fighting spirit of the Seiza Knights was even more burning. They are increasingly convinced of the prophecy. The ruler's cruel and unforgiving reign would soon come to an end.The debate between Zidane and the Sovereign still continues. Zidane certainly wanted to end this soon. He still gave the Sovereign a chance. After all, it couldn't be denied, there was the heart of a son who couldn't bear to kill his father.But from the north, the shuffling feet were already approaching the hill. They would soon arrive at the battlefield. Teo had been watching the battle. Lea's death made Teo ascend the throne in Lea's place. Nonetheless, Teo certainly has more responsibility on his back. He's waiting for the Attack they've come to rely on. The troops prepared as backup. And Teo couldn't wait for them. The troops that the Sovereign said would make all of Seiza fall silent."Hurry up and end this!" Zidane excl
