Asphalt Edge Empty House

Chapter 37 Sukma Release Ritual

The hero flinched back a few steps from his original position. The person who took over Linda's body turned out to be Asih. The demon drop girl who was raised by Ronggo Joyo.

Wira then remembered the incident in the asphalt house, he then connected the figure of the girl who terrorized them that night.

"The devil woman is out of Linda's body now!"

The hero immediately pulled out his gun, keeping watch if the incident in the hospital repeated, ill-fated for Wira, when he was pointing a gun at Linda, suddenly the doctor appeared from the door.

"Security...!"

A single doctor and nurse race the race to call the security guard of the Mental Hospital.

Their faces looked tense.

"What is this sir, please put down your weapons!"

The doctor tried to calm the woman who currently looks panicked. How not, he was caught holding his gun to Linda's face, which suddenly changed his nose to look frightened.

"Help me doctor, the man wants to kill me."

Linda went to the doctor and nurse. The hero was misbehaved, confused to explain his current situation.

"Be careful doctor she's not Linda!"

The hero tries to warn the doctor, but in that position, it is clear the doctor does not trust the speech of the Hero. While Linda continues to insist on being saved from the Hero.

"Sir Wira please put down your gun, or I'll have to call your boss."

The hero growled, his jaw thickened, restraining emotions. He then returned to his pistol, cursing, he left the ward.

"Wira... Hero...!"

Linda called out the name of Wira, like deliberately wanting to mock her. The hero kept passing away bumping into the security officer who wanted to bend him.

"Now Linda is calm.."

"Everything is safe now."

Linda nodded her lips softly upon the sly smile triumphantly. The doctor immediately gave her a sedative so Linda could get back to rest.

"Samely..!"

"Is he the son of the demon drop that father meant?"

The hero began to fret, he remembered very well the figure of the woman in the empty house at the end of the Asphalt, which was then in the burrow.

"Could he have possessed Linda?"

"I don't think I saw her again that night."

Wira said softly, he then left the mental hospital, breaking through the rainstorm accompanied by the sound of thunder and lightning striking.

"How can Linda be freed from the shackles of the demon that possessed her?"

Along the way home, Wira kept thinking, there are times when he wants to go to meet smart people, shamans, kyai, or physical experts, but somehow the heart of the Hero always forbids.

"That damn woman even knew that I just lost Rina."

The hero swore to hit the handlebars, venting his anger. He felt himself as a useless man because he was unable to take care of Rina.

"That's the result if you dare to play with Sandikala."

"Haha..."

The voice sounded very clear in the ears of Wira, while in the car there was only him alone at this time. The hero pulled the car over and got out, screaming as it would be.

"You're rude Anton Wijaya...!"

"Bring up all of Sandikala's apprenticeships, I'm not afraid...!"

The hero rested on the asphalt, his face bowed in lethargy, he screamed out emotions that could no longer be held back.

"What do I have to do with God?"

Suddenly Wira felt his body was no longer wet in the rain. He looked back, and it turned out that Siska had been standing around him. Wira rubbed her wet face while Siska stretched out her hand.

"Let's wake up sir, we'll find a way out of Linda's problem together."

The hero grabbed Siska's hand, then they got into the car. While the car that Siska was riding drove ahead of them. Siska takes over the wheel, replacing the Wira who still calms herself down.

"Where are we going Sis?"

"To the house of Mr. Jarwo sir."

Wira scrunched her forehead, but reluctantly asked again. While Siska immediately turned the direction of driving Wira car towards outside the city, Banyuwangi direction.

Almost three hours they drove and finally the sedan stopped at a simple house with a large yard planted with many large trees.

Siska got out of the car, then stepped onto the porch, and immediately knocked on the teak door carved in flowers.

"Asalamualaikum, sir.."

"It's me Siska..!"

Soon an old man appeared from behind the door with a friendly smile welcoming Siska's presence. His lips appear red from chewing betel, while his hair and also a bushy mustache that runs over his lips, white color implies a long life experience has been through.

"Who are you coming with Sis?"

Same with Siska Pakde's boss."

Siska kissed her father's hand, then turned to the car, then waved her hand while shouting to call Wira who was taking the time to change her wet clothes.

After putting wet clothes into the backpack he always carried, Wira rushed out of the car with a black umbrella. He immediately shook the hand of Mr. Siska while introducing himself.

"Please enter sir."

Siska let Wira into the living room which is only made of pandan mats, and then went straight to the back to make a drink. While Wira sat accompanied by Pakde Jarwo who just silently stared fixedly at his face.

"This is bad, your friend will die, if he doesn't return to his body immediately."

The hero was astonished to hear the sentence that was just thrown from the lips of the old man in front of him. He tried to digest the meaning of Pakde Jarwo's words, but Wira failed to translate the meaning.

" I'm sorry before, but what did you mean, I don't understand?"

"What's wrong sir?"

"Who will die?"

Wira tried to find out the meaning of Pakde Jarwo's words, and then searched the old man with several questions, hoping to get an answer to his question soon.

"It's about your girl friend. His soul was locked away somewhere dark and didn't know the way home."

"If his soul keeps getting lost, then I'm afraid he'll die, because other creatures have taken over his body."

The hero quickly grasped the meaning of Mr. Jarwo's speech, he was sure that the meaning of the old man's words in front of him, addressed to Linda.

"What should I do then?"

Wira feels that they will have a solution to save Linda from the clutches of Asih. Pakde Jarwo walks into a small room picking up ritual supplies.

Siska who had just returned from the kitchen, was immediately stunned. For the first time he witnessed his uncle would start performing a ritual. Pakde Jarwo developed a Javanese cantilever that requisites mystical meaning, fragrant rose flowers, and concentrated incense smoke filled the room.

The spirit of covering his nose the fragrance of incense makes his chest tight, but reluctant to move. Arrived just pakde Jarwo grabbed, and clasped the Wira's wrist.

Then immediately the hero felt something move in his body. Like the flow of water that flows from the big toe slowly continues to rise up to the sweet potato.

And what happened then, Wira could see his own body was being stretched stiff with eyes closed.

"What is this, am I dead?"

What's going on?"

The hero feels confused by this situation, for the umpteenth time the Hero feels a great fear, until his whole body shakes violently.

"Focus Hero, don't let fear rule your heart."

"Now we're going to pick up your friend, so strengthen your heart!"

The hero felt a gripping atmosphere around. The silence, silence, which he felt began to turn into a crowd with the sound of moans and screams for help from a figure who did not exist.

"Where are we, sir?"

"Why is it so dark here?"

The hero could feel his nape cold, breathing hard, and his heart pounding.There was nothing in that place, except only dark and heart-wrenching moans.

"Please deliver us from this affliction."

The voice that Wira heard repeated itself, until at one point, they found a passageway to a building where Linda was.

"That's Linda my friend sirde."

"Linda... Lin...!"

The hero called Linda's name repeatedly, but the girl continued to walk around feeling like a blind man. The hero let go of Pakde Jarwo's grasp, and chased Linda who was getting away.

"Stop Hero...!"

Wira looked back, he saw Mrde Jarwo who even stopped when they almost got Linda's tribe.

"What's the matter, sir?"

Pakde Jarwo pointed far ahead, his facial expression tense as if afraid of something coming in front of them.

"Back off the hero, or we'll both die silly here."

"But sir, it's Linda.."

Wira turned her head again towards Linda and how surprised Wira, when she saw the snake figure wrapped around Linda's body.

"Old switch..!"

"We have to return the Hero, who we face is not from among demits or demons, he is the devil."

Pakde Jarwo immediately grabbed Wira's arm and dragged her running away from the hallway inhabited by old snakes. They continued to run towards the voice of Siska who did not stop calling out their names.

Shortly thereafter Wira felt herself flying back into her body.

"Pakde Jarwo, hero sir, are you all right?"

"What happened sir?"

Pakde Jarwo and Wira opened their eyes almost simultaneously. They both found Siska who was crying while tightly hugging the body of Mr. Jarwo.

"It's my son, sir, it's okay."

Siska gave thanks in her heart, the panic in her heart subsided. Since Pakde Jarwo performed Sukma's escape ritual, he could see their bodies shaken and felt cold like corpses.

"Your friend was taken by old snake Sis, sirde has no idea who the person who has dared to open the astral dimensional portal so that they can come across."

Wira's face is still looking upset, almost they managed to get Linda back. But all his efforts must fail because Pakde Jarwo prevents and pulls Wira back.

"Why did you do that. We'd almost get Linda back, if only Pakde hadn't pulled me back earlier."

The grumbling hero filed a protest to Mr. Jarwo who is currently still holding his chest that feels tight. Siska was silent waiting for the explanation from her pack.

"I prevent you from getting close because the person who shackles your friend is not an ordinary creature from the demit Wir."

"He is an old serpent, a cursed creature of the crust of hell. If you take another step forward, I'll make sure we both don't survive."

The hero bowed lethargic, his hope of being able to save Linda was dashed instantly. He was very disappointed, but Mr. Jarwo's words were right, and Wira no longer wanted to fall victim on their side.
