122 The Saddest Person Smiles The Brightest (Jane’s PoV) The old woman put a more fierce look on her face, warning me not to have any funny ideas towards the young man. What I hate the most was if the elders were spoiling rotten their younger ones to the point these kids were not able to tell what’s good and bad. When a kid was dependent to their parents, it was normal for me. But, when the kid was overly spoiled by the parents, it would only lead to the damage of the kid’s personality and…-

121 Horror Movie in Real Life (Jane’s PoV) I raised my free hand and a light barrier appeared in front of me. The young girl bumped into it and wailed loudly. Her previous timid and scared expression turned violent as her evil face overlapped with her innocent face. At least her innocent soul was still there even just a little bit of it. I took a deep breath as I retracted the light barrier from my left hand. My fingers touched the girl’s forehead, ignoring the overlapping shadow in her…

120 Your Master is Stupid (Jane’s PoV) Creepy laugh was heard from the Shadow’s throat, mixed with a bit of its disgusting growl. Seeing it’s scary and twisted appearance, I was sure it had forgotten its true identity. Negativity had given it a new power but it also had changed its appearance. After learning from Siji these days, I knew that these Shadows were mostly humans before. Even after their death, their greed didn’t diminish, but instead it was getting stronger. With a bit persuading,…

119 Lisa; Sooner or Later, I Will Find The Truth! (4) (Jane’s PoV) It was in the afternoon, when the sun had started to go West and the temperature started to cool down. I was sitting on the rooftop of my house with Lisa, enjoying the scenery and the wind with a cup of warm tea in our hands and some sweets and snacks on the side. She came to say goodbye, saying that she would go continuing her study and work tomorrow and she had no intention to come back even though this was her hometown. As…

118 Lisa; Sooner or Later, I Will Find The Truth! (3) (Jane’s PoV) As I was still mulling over the fact that none of what they were talking about made sense, both of them had continued talking. I was sure I paid attention to them, but I couldn’t make a head or tail to what they were talking about. I could only catch some words such as ‘the chosen one’ being repeated and ‘the world is changing’. By the time I came to my senses, they had concluded their conversation and somehow I got a…

117 Lisa; Sooner or Later I Will Find The Truth (2) (Jane’s PoV) I had waited for the elder to utter some words of recognition for Siji, but the elder didn’t say anything, much to my disappointment. After staring at Siji for a while, the elder didn’t look at him anymore and returned to his usual aloof stance. He didn’t look at me or Siji anymore, but somehow I knew this elderly was not an easy one. He acted as if he didn’t know about Siji but I knew he did. Anyway, I wouldn’t scare…

116 Lisa; Sooner or Later, I Will Find The Truth (1) (Jane’s PoV) How many days had passed since I returned to my hometown? I wondered. I didn’t go out much. I preferred to stay at home and meditated. Three days ago, Sanji finally came and he said that he had taken a leave from his job to solve the problem regarding my father. I was really grateful for what he had done, but I was at lost when he first stepped into the house. Even though the house my parents left me was a bit far from the…

115 The Dream (4) (Tom’s PoV) “The candidate, Thomas Putra Alamsyah, do you have any inquiries regarding your first trial?” “I do.” I nodded my head firmly. “Where am I? What is it about? What do you mean by trial? Soul Endurance? How do you know me? I don’t know what you’re talking about and I don’t know any of you. Could you, please, explain it to me?” The man smiled patiently at me. “We know what we want to know. Nothing in this world can hide anything from us as long…

114 The Dream (3) (Tom’s PoV) Or rather, who were waiting for me. This... guest room is a bit too big, isn’t it? Sitting in the room was some people who I had never met before. On the farthest end of the room, there was a big chair. Judging from the size and the meticulous carving on the chair, it must be for a very important person. Well, I doubt I was the person. On my right, sitting along the wall was some elders who were wearing traditional clothes with one similarity; they were…

113 The Dream (2) (Tom’s PoV) “H-how do you know?” The old man hissed. His eyes flashed with dangerous glint as his body stiffened and went into alert, ready to pounce on me if I were to threaten his existence. “Easy.” I smiled. “I had nothing against you. I’m just curious why did you sound so malicious when you told us the story. Especially when you mentioned the man. But when you mentioned the ex lover, you had a loving hint in your eyes. My first assumption that you are somehow…
