2023-09-19 09:52:28He was still left with many questions about the phone. He even searched the internet for the name of the cell phone but there was nothing like it.
A large phone like a handy talkie but with a screen that was very different from most phones today. Especially in its features.
Hazeed, who was trying to figure this out, finally fell asleep very soundly because he was tired after all the things he had been through.
"I Am Omega, who woke me up?" someone said. But Hazeed, who was fast asleep, didn't notice.
The warm morning touched Hazeed's face.Staying in that hut all night made him think hard now. Even though he was losing his way. But he didn't want his grandparents back in the village to know what had happened to him.
"I have to go to the college," Hazeed said.
Using a water source he found near the field, he washed his face and cleaned his body. He separated some of his clean clothes.
Once he was dressed, Hazeed walked to the campus to attend his classes. Hazeed himself is an outstanding student who has intelligence in the field of science, so he attends Adyatama University with a full scholarship and other benefits.
Hazeed walked for two kilometers until he reached the entrance gate of his campus.
All eyes looking at him looked condescending.
"Is it just me?" said Hazeed to himself.
Undeterred, Hazeed continued to walk towards his class.
"I can't believe you have such a thick wall Hazzed!" Bella greeted him at the classroom door.
Next to her, Radith wrapped his arms around Bella's slender waist intimately and seemed to squeeze her slightly.
Hazeed's blood boiled again at the sight. But he tried to restrain himself.
"Did you see that? Do you have no logic anymore?" Bella's words pierced him further.
Hazeed turned his gaze toward the bulletin board near where he stood.
There, a photograph was displayed very clearly showing him. And what infuriated Hazeed was the caption underneath the photo which read:
MOST WANTED! A CLASSY DRUG DEALER HAS BEEN BUSTED FROM ADYATAMA UNIVERSITY.
His self-respect and honor were further undermined by this branding.
BRAT
Hazeed tore it off and rushed straight to the Rector's office.
"Hey, do you have an appointment with the Rector?" one of the staff said to him.
But Hazeed didn't care, he strode into the room without permission.
"Sir, please explain this!" said Hazeed with narrowed eyes and a chest full of anger.
"Hazeed! You can still come back to this campus, your confidence is amazing, but I'm sorry that I can't help you anymore," Mr. Benjamin told him.
"So, on what basis am I being dropped?" Hazeed asked again.
"Hazeed, I know very well that this is very hard. But the Chairman of the Foundation has decided and we can't do much about it, especially with the viral video of your arrest at the clinic," Mr. Benjamin explained.
"Why, wasn't it clear that I wasn't involved! Then why did the letter come out?" Hazeed said defensively.
"Look kiddo, you shouldn't challenge the Foundation Chairman's decision too much, it's still good that you weren't harmed. Bella is his daughter after all, so it's only natural that Mr. Seno would be angry with you," Benjamin explained.
"Bella? What about Bella?" said Hazeed.
Benjamin then explained to him that Bella had come home late at night with her body covered in kiss marks and that had angered Seno. Then Hazeed's name was mentioned as the culprit who forced Bella to serve him. And this morning, this letter was inviolable.
"I'm sorry Hazeed," Benjamin said with a confused look on his face. Benjamin handed the dropout letter to Hazeed with a heavy heart. However, he knew Hazeed's quality as a highly qualified scholar.
"I didn't expect Bella to stab me like this!" said Hazeed as he walked away.
He had lost all hope.
His steps now returned to the classroom.
"Bella! Bella Atmadjaya, I didn't expect you to stab me like this!" said Hazeed as he continued to walk towards Bella who was sitting on Radith's lap.
"Heyy man, what do you want from my woman?" said Radith as he got up and confronted him.
"Get out of my way Radith, this is my business with Bella," Hazeed said firmly.
His aura was so cold that the man was suddenly filled with a different charisma.
SRAT
SRAT
Hazeed tore up the dropout letter from the university in front of Bella. This left her gaping wide-eyed in disbelief.
"I'm sure my qualities aren't worthy of the DO letter your father decided on, and remember one thing Bella. You just made a mistake by getting rid of me like this!" said Hazeed in a very suppressed voice.
Hazeed walked away immediately afterwards. Leaving Bella and Radith as well as his friends still stunned.
***
"Where should I go?" she muttered as she walked along the sidewalk of the highway in front of her campus.
CRISIS
The cell phone rang.
Hazeed was confused, he couldn't understand why his cell phone was ringing when he hadn't inserted the starter pack into it.
TIIINNN
A large truck passing by honked its horn, much to Hazeed's surprise.
TIIT
LOG IN ACCEPTED
Hazeed stared in confusion.
He saw that the screen of his phone had now changed color to a bluish-white color while before it was yellow.
"What did I press earlier?" said Hazeed who was very confused because he couldn't remember which button he had pressed.
WELCOME IN OMEGA!
FINGER ENTRY!
As if taken aback, Hazeed, who was still sitting at the bus stop in front of the Blue Company, continued to follow the guidance of the unfamiliar voice on his unique cell phone.
Slowly, Hazeed pressed his thumb against the screen.
MISSION ACTIVATED
The voice on the other side of the phone told him. After that, the speaker began to convey the mission and the rules Hazeed had to follow.
"Wait! How does he know my full name, and... even my residency ID number?" muttered Hazeed as he continued to listen.
"CALL ME OMEGA! Hazeed Shaka... WELCOME IN OMEGA!" something called Omega said to him.
Hazeed was still listening."I can give you a choice of languages that suit you Mr.H," Omega said.
"What, Mr. H?" said Hazeed.
"Yes Sir, your user name is Mr.H," Omega said in a much friendlier tone of voice.
Hazeed was about to say something but Omega said something first."Sir, MISSIONS AVAILABLE with a duration of one hour. This is your trial mission, as per the project, rewards will be arranged immediately after your mission is completed," Omega ordered.
"Can't I refuse?" said Hazeed.
The man then strode away from the bus stop that was beginning to fill up with students heading off to their university.
Hazeed stepped towards the banks of the Yuxer River, which was quite deserted on an afternoon like this.
For a moment, Hazeed could forget about his life's problems.
"Your time has come, sir!" said Omega.
Suddenly, his cell phone went silent.
"Is this a timer?" said Hazeed as he stared at the screen where a series of numbers showing the time had moved every milli second.
"Do I have to do it?"
Well, for the sake of whatever this is I'll do it.
I must be able to cancel Rhezel's match with Leando," said Hazeed.
TIIN
A black Bugatti suddenly appeared with the doors opening behind it.
Hazzed was confused.

"Come in, follow the route that will guide you, Mr.H!" Omega's voice sounded so cold this time.Hazeed then stepped inside."What? This is a driverless car? Autopilot? It really works systematically using a computer system connected to its center?" Hazeed said in amazement."Sir, Omega will lead you to your first mission," Omega said.TREKThe black car locked and accelerated to a lake behind an old factory.This lake was an artificial lake in the middle of the city, used as a water catchment area for the city."What should I do here?" said Hazeed."First Mission, save the children," said Omega, accompanied by the sound of a door opening.BUKKHazeed tumbled to the ground, as his chair had apparently shifted with him."You suck!

Hazeed : Guardian Of The World Barely Surviving the Uzibey Tunnel
"Next to your house is Ms. Lisa's boarding house," said Mr. Kardi.Hazeed frowned.A room on the outside of the house was then handed over to him. Hazeed felt very much at home, especially since there was a parking lot here too, which allowed him to save money."Thank you son, I hope you feel at home," said Mr. Kardi, who had rented out one of the rooms in his house to Hazeed."You're welcome sir, I'm very grateful that you offered me a room," said Hazeed.He immediately cleaned up the room that would now be his home. He was grateful that he could finally sleep comfortably again.Even so, his mind was still confused by the OMEGA system that kept appearing on his cell phone.It was getting late, and Hazeed felt free. He took out his antique cell phone and started to turn it on."It won't turn on?" said Hazeed in confusion. He then tried to charge it, but nothing fit into the charger hole."What kind of data cable is this?" said Hazeed as he continued to look up the size and specificati
Hazeed : Guardian Of The World The Pink Package
"Whose package is this?" Hazeed asked, gazing at the wall, but he couldn't find anyone there.Still startled, the man saw a series of strange numerical codes. He often encountered such random numbers when downloading or logging into web pages on the internet."Welcome back, Mr. H! With Me."Hazeed finally felt relieved upon hearing Omega's voice. This made Hazeed think that the codes he had seen earlier were sent to him by the system."What else do I need to do? If I've received the package, does that mean it's safe?" Hazeed spoke through his old cellphone to Omega."Reload system, activated!" Omega kept repeating that command. "What's happening?" muttered Hazeed."Oh no! So it's not finished yet?" grumbled Hazeed, seeing his phone suddenly spinning without any signal on the screen, proving that this mission was still incomplete."A pink package. Hufht! Very tacky. Who could have sent a package with wrapping like this? It's very strange and doesn't make sense, too exaggerated in my op
Hazeed : Guardian Of The World Another User
Hazeed himself became increasingly unfocused as the woman in front of him seemed to be inviting him to wander around."Why haven't we found the restroom yet?" Hazeed asked."Almost there," replied the beautiful woman in front of him, remaining calm.Hazeed's eyes then scanned every corridor they passed. There were numerous locked rooms along the way. The farther they walked, the more Hazeed began to wonder.This place seemed like a maze, making him forget where he initially entered."Stop! I won't keep following you. Tell me who the owner of the package is that you're referring to because I'm carrying this for someone," Hazeed said, scrutinizing the woman in front of him, who smiled teasingly at him."Come on, user, don't joke around. You're already in the place where you have to deliver the package. Why do you seem unhappy? Doesn't that mean this mission will be completed?" the woman said to Hazeed.Hazeed felt increasingly odd and confused; he sensed something suspicious about the w
Hazeed : Guardian Of The World About Mazda
"Of course, I'm escaping from your lackeys!" Hazeed exclaimed, keeping the tip of his dagger pointed at Mazda's slender neck. The woman, seemingly a mix of Arab, Latin, and Spanish blood, possessed a flawless body and exotic skin that made Hazeed's eyes dance with her beauty.Reluctantly, Mazda stepped forward, feeling defeated this time. The seemingly insignificant man he underestimated had just made him bend the knee, rendering him unable to resist."I am very sure you don't have the courage to do it," murmured Mazda as they moved slowly, igniting Hazeed's blood once again."Is that what you think? Then, what about this?" Hazeed said, slowly slicing the soft skin on Mazda's slender neck with the tip of his dagger.The scent of Mazda's fragrant body began to captivate Hazeed, inducing an inexplicable and peculiar sensation. However, soon after, the metallic smell of fresh blood trickling from the woman's skin cut by the dagger filled the air.Hazeed could even hear Mazda's stifled cr
Hazeed : Guardian Of The World About Bella
Hearing Mazda's lengthy explanations throughout the journey made Hazeed repeatedly take heavy, ragged breaths. He was still together with Mazda."You said Omega will know when users are together? How does it happen?" Hazeed inquired."Oh come on, Buddy. IP address. They don't need to track it; I'm sure they can see our current location within their data. That's why I've been turning off my GPRS and 5G data since earlier," Mazda replied.Hazeed took another deep breath. He then parked his car in one of the restaurant's lots. "What do you want here?" asked Mazda."To eat. Aren't you hungry?" replied Hazeed, unlocking his car door and swiftly stepping out. He disregarded Mazda, who was now stumbling behind, trying to keep up.Hazeed walked in and froze in the entrance. "Hey, are you alone?" Radith greeted him, affectionately holding Bella beside him.Hazeed swallowed hard. He never expected to bump into Bella here. His gaze fixated on the face of the most beautiful moon, who was now tryi
Hazeed : Guardian Of The World Pair Mission
Hazeed quickened his pace. He immediately ran back towards the car parked over there."Go!" Mazda shouted, worsening the situation.Meanwhile, the sound of gunfire following them became louder. The man could barely dodge the shots fired using sharp bullets aimed at him. Hazeed stumbled on the sidewalk, causing him to fall onto the asphalt, barely surviving."Wait!" Mazda yelled, opening the car door and rushing towards Hazeed. With Mazda's help, Hazeed finally survived and escaped from the long-range shots that seemed to come from nowhere."They're lurking from all directions. Do you now understand how terrifying the Omega system is?" Mazda said while assisting Hazeed to get up from the asphalt. If only earlier... Mazda hadn't rushed to shorten the distance with Hazeed; the bullet might have pierced Hazeed's body by now."Why do they create rules that aren't explained but must be followed! A joint mission with a radius they also regulate!" Hazeed grumbled. He grumbled irritably and sta
Hazeed : Guardian Of The World CLOUD-X
"What should I do next?" murmured Hazeed to himself.Hazeed was well aware that he had to listen to Mazda this time, but the next issue he didn't understand was the rules of engagement within the Omega user system."Can't you shoot?" asked Mazda, her focused eyes targeting their attackers outside."Penetrate?" exclaimed Hazeed as he witnessed Mazda's bullet soaring and effortlessly piercing through the car's windshield, as if passing through an unbreakable, elastic bubble.A faint smile adorned Mazda's face afterward. This beautiful woman became even more convinced that Hazeed truly didn't understand anything about the Omega System that now bound them."You have much to learn; it seems Gordon is the right person to teach you," Mazda said, continuing to target each user attacking them throughout their journey.The car continued to swerve on winding asphalt roads, uphill paths, and a row of large acacia trees lining the roadside, leaving Hazeed slightly puzzled about the place they were

The Breach
A deep, gut-wrenching boom rolled through the city, rattling the ground like an earthquake. Then came the sirens—wailing across the skyline, swallowed by the sudden roar of fire and collapsing steel.Downtown was under attack.From their position deep in the bunker, Hazeed and the others felt the tremors before the emergency comms even flared to life.STATIC—Screams—Gunfire—More static.Then a voice, frantic and barely holding together:“Breach detected! We need immediate backup—”A deep, gurgling shriek cut the transmission short.Silence.Then Mazda muttered, "Yeah, we’re screwed."The city was burning.Black tendrils writhed from the epicenter of the blast, twisting through shattered buildings like living things. The sky overhead churned, the stars swallowed by a seething void. And at the heart of it all, in the middle of the ruined intersection—They stood.Dozens of them. Malformed. Hollow-eyed. Their bodies shimmered with a sickly, translucent glow—figures that should not be.Sp
The Tethered
The bunker corridors were narrow and cold, the air stale with age. Dim emergency lights flickered overhead, casting long, shifting shadows.Hazeed followed Nayla, his breathing steady but tense. The sigil on his chest pulsed in rhythm with something unseen—something waiting.Mazda and Goro trailed behind, their weapons at the ready."So," Mazda muttered, "we just gonna follow the lady who tossed a damn head at our feet?""You got a better idea?" Goro grumbled.Mazda scoffed but didn’t argue.Nayla led them to a locked steel door at the end of the hall. She pressed her palm against a worn-out scanner. The mechanism beeped, hesitated—then clicked open.Inside was a war room.Old maps covered the walls, marked with faded notes and red ink. A cracked monitor displayed distorted images of the surface. A massive metal table stood in the center, its surface littered with documents and broken comms equipment.And in the corner—a body.Hazeed’s gut twisted as he saw it.A soldier, or what was
The Marked
Darkness pressed against Hazeed’s senses, thick and suffocating.Somewhere in the void, something watched."You are already marked."That whisper—it didn’t come from Ralvek. It didn’t come from the creature.It came from something beyond.A presence loomed, vast and formless, shifting between sight and shadow.Then—light.A blinding, searing light burst through the void, and suddenly, Hazeed was falling.—Gasp!Hazeed’s body jerked violently as he was pulled back into reality.His lungs burned as he sucked in air. His vision was blurred, but he could feel the rough texture of a blanket beneath him. A metallic scent lingered—blood."Easy, kid," Mazda’s voice cut through the haze.Hazeed blinked hard, forcing his sight to clear.They were inside a dimly lit underground chamber. The walls were reinforced steel, lined with old military crates and flickering monitors.A bunker.Goro was leaning against a table, his arm wrapped in a makeshift bandage. Mazda stood nearby, his pistol still i
The Tink ini the Bunker
Hazeed could barely feel the ground beneath him. His limbs were numb, his mind fogged with pain and exhaustion. The Architect’s whisper still echoed inside his skull, but it was fading—receding like a predator satisfied with the damage it had done.Mazda ripped off his own vest, pressing it against Hazeed’s chest. "Stay with us, damn it!"Goro’s hands trembled as he tried to patch the wound. The glowing sigil nearby flickered erratically, its light dimming. Whatever Hazeed had done, it had driven the Architect back—for now.But Hazeed knew the truth.It wasn’t gone.It was watching.A faint static crackled in the air again. Not words this time, just a sensation—a knowing.Mazda’s eyes darted around. "We can’t stay here. If that thing comes back—"Goro nodded. "We move. Now."Lifting Hazeed between them, they started toward the underground bunker hidden beneath the base. It was their last hope. If there were any survivors, they’d be there. If not… they were on their own.The Bunker’s S
Whispers of the Architect
The journey back to the base was agonizingly slow. Every step felt heavier, every shadow along the path seemed to stretch unnaturally. Though the air was still, an oppressive weight pressed down on them, as if the very world resisted their return.Mazda was the first to break the silence. "Alright, someone needs to say it—what the hell was that thing?"Hazeed kept walking, eyes scanning the forest warily. "I don't know.""But it knew about the Architect," Goro muttered. "And it knew we were here."The mention of the Architect sent a chill down Hazeed’s spine. They had fought, they had risked everything, and yet, the enemy they sought to destroy was still out there. Or worse—it had never truly left.As they approached the treeline leading to the outskirts of their base, a sharp noise made them freeze. A crackling hum, like static interfering with a radio signal, drifted through the air.It was faint, but distinct.The Architect was speaking again.A Warning from BeyondGoro aimed his r
The Shadow That Remained
Hazeed still lay on the ground, his body trembling from the lingering adrenaline coursing through his veins. Mazda and Goro sat beside him, both panting, still trying to process what had just happened.The sky above them was whole again—no more gaping rift threatening to swallow the world. The forest, which had vanished, was now back as if nothing had happened.But something was different.Silence.Despite the fact that they had just defeated something that shouldn’t have existed, the world around them felt too quiet. No insects chirping, no wind whispering through the leaves, and most notably—no sign of the Omega forces.Mazda glanced around uneasily. “Where is everyone?”Goro tightened his grip on his rifle, his body still tense. “I don’t like this.”Hazeed forced himself to sit up, his head heavy. The data pad in his hand was cracked, its screen dark and unresponsive. The system had collapsed, but was everything really over?Something felt off.A Shadow at the Edge of AwarenessHaz
Raced
Hazeed sprinted forward, his breath ragged, the data pad clutched in his trembling hands. The ground beneath him rippled, shifting between solid matter and something far less stable—less real. The Architect loomed above, its form distorting the very fabric of existence.Goro and Mazda followed close behind, their movements sluggish as if reality itself was resisting them. The battlefield was gone, replaced by a vast, shifting void where remnants of what once existed flickered in and out of focus."Tell me you actually have a plan," Goro barked, barely keeping pace.Hazeed’s mind raced. The data pad. The countdown. The key. He had triggered something, but maybe… maybe it could still be reversed."We need to disrupt the sequence," he shouted over the howling void. "This thing isn’t just coming through—it’s rewriting the rules! If we can sever its connection, we might be able to push it back."Mazda scoffed, eyes darting to the rift above them. "And how the hell do we sever something we
The Descent of Oblivion
Mazda wiped the blood from his face, his hands shaking as he watched the sky break apart. The air around them crackled with static, the battlefield eerily silent. Omega’s forces had long since fled, but it didn’t matter anymore. Nothing did.Because whatever was coming through that rift—it wasn’t meant for this world.Goro gritted his teeth, gripping his rifle as if it would make a difference. "We need to move. Now."Mazda barely registered his words. His eyes were locked on the presence descending from the rift. The void shifted around it, its form undefined, warping between states of existence. Every flicker of movement sent waves of nausea through his body, like his brain couldn’t comprehend what it was seeing.It wasn’t just a thing. It was a concept, something too vast, too infinite for the human mind to grasp.And it was looking at them.Hazeed—Inside the ChamberHazeed hit the ground hard, pain shooting up his spine. He barely had time to breathe before the world around him twi
The Brink
Hazeed gritted his teeth as he clutched the data pad, his mind racing. His heart pounded in his ears, drowning out the chaos around him. Omega’s forces were in full retreat, but not because of the rebels. They were running from it. The nightmare that had just unmade half their squad like they never existed.The creature pulsed, its shifting mass bending light and space around it. It wasn’t moving toward Hazeed. It was pulling him in."Shit."The gravity around him warped, his boots scraping against the dirt as he fought to stay upright. The data pad in his hands hummed violently, heat searing his palm."Hazeed, drop it!" Goro’s voice cut through the static in his head. "That thing wants it!"But Hazeed knew—he couldn’t. If this was the reason Omega was here, if they had risked everything to find it, then it meant something. And if that thing was after it, then destroying it might be their only way out.The problem was, he had no idea how."Fall back! Now!" Mazda shouted, dragging a wo
