Pride of Indonesia's

POI 4 - Friends

In a dark and lonely night like this, someone Aditya knew brought himself into his inn to get ready to go somewhere safe so that he would not be Peter's victim either. The person introduced himself by the name [Bima Satrio] and he came to meet Aditya because it was time he hid his identity even more strictly.

"Why should I run away if I'm not related to Peter's victim, as far as I know I'm just a bad person and who has a tattoo, right...?" Said Aditya who was putting his stuff into a backpack, Bima listened to the words while reading a newspaper.

It seems like the news of the Mana Mana possessing Mana began to spread in every country that existed until the current President began to hate the people of Indonesia who had the source of Mana because he had heard that the people who while undergoing surgery Peter is suddenly killed by the Mana Mana.

But only part of it that he hated because now the army he had already had the ability to use the Mana source, they can now find out who tried to fight Peter plus who the Indonesian people who dared to fight against the President even though they have the source of Mana.

In the end, the paper recounts that all the Humans who had the source of Mana were killed in a tragic way, there was another strange thing that happened... Their blood was filled with Mana lines that could turn into particles until the particles gave a Human the ability to use Mana.

The way it works is almost the same as the Virus, but it is more profitable. Bima can clearly see a Mana line in his back neck, the Mana line helps him to stay up without having to feel sleepy at all.

"If it's not wrong... You want to stop this Peter operation, don't you...? Did you read the newspaper that just came out lately? The President is trying to find other Indonesians who can use Mana and make them all his own soldiers." Bima said.

"... ..." Aditya can only be silent because rejecting her request is like dying for her, "If you refuse then you will waste your second life, Aditya."

"I don't want to deal anything with my fellow Indonesians, my good friend once said that one day the greatest test of this country is against his own people, what he said is right... Fighting invaders is easier than trying to prevent a nation from trying to fight its own people." Aditya replied while showing a look of annoyance.

"Such words don't exist in an era like this, you can see them, right? Petrus, the operation to kill Indonesians who are evil." Bima rose up from the top of his mattress and he took the weapon that is still owned by Aditya is a pointed bamboo.

When he heard what Bima had just said, Aditya just fell silent and looked annoyed... Disillusioned with the progress of the beloved homeland, killing the same nation was already commonplace in this era because the President was leading it. Aditya actually wants to resuscitate them in the right way without having to fight with violence.

He also did not want to start a war between nations like trying to attack the President along with all the Humans who have Mana, he said, if Aditya did that then he had just made his friend disappointed for already fighting his own nation.

"You can't say anything, your pride in Indonesia is-" The pointed bamboo suddenly pointed towards Bima's neck quickly because Aditya who drained his right palm using Mana until the pointed bamboo could he move from a distance.

Bima looked at Aditya's gaze that really threatened her, "Don't talk to me like that... Indonesia should be able to progress without having to feel what it means to fight the same nation, an era like this is really quite embarrassing, it could-can be the first President of Indonesia will feel sad." Said Aditya who started pointing at his pointed bamboo which shot towards his direction then he picked it up.

"It's so scary for you, Aditya Loka. It turns out that the hero who once fought the invaders would be as assertive as this." Replied Bima who started rubbing her neck because she felt linu in the section.

"I want to take you to a place that is safe enough, I am the Indonesian people in the current era, I am just like you because I can use the Mana source. There's still so much you need to know about this Mana ability, it's helpful enough to survive and everything else." Bima began to explain it while rushing away from the inn with Aditya.

"Are you sure to continue using your ancient weapon, Aditya? The pointed bamboo now is already very difficult to use in killing opponents, but with your Mana ability it seems quite deadly as well."

"I'm comfortable with this spiky bamboo... Pointed bamboo is the main symbol that explains our courage and sacrifice as citizens for the country of Indonesia." 

"The pointed bamboo that you made, not only immediately tapered bamboo raw materials. But at the end of it has been smeared with cow or buffalo telethong, the goal is in addition to injuring the opponent's soldiers, also to infect the enemy's wounds, so that in the end the enemy can not join the fight again." Bima said because he was almost infected with the pointed bamboo.

"Let's get to the core, Aditya. From now on I will try as much as possible to train you to become a Human who can use that Mana ability to the fullest so that you do not need to be confused anymore with the other abilities that the Mana has, he said, martial arts also seems like you are not proficient huh?" Ask Bima.

"Yes martial arts... I haven't studied it in a long time, Bima. You better tell me everything about Mana and train me on martial arts you know." Aditya said until a few minutes later the two of them were standing right in front of the large deserted warehouse.

"We've arrived, you'll be safe with all of us, Aditya." Said Bima who began to open the gate of the warehouse that showed a room of rest and training, Aditya saw a lot of people inside there who were resting and practicing.

Aditya saw a lot of Indonesians staring at him, they immediately greeted him politely and warmly until they knew Aditya immediately because Bima was the one who told them about herself that she was an Indonesian citizen who came from the colonial era.

When Aditya counted their numbers, there were six Indonesians plus Bima, Bima told Aditya that the people gathered in the storehouse had a source of Mana that could be used also to fight and survive Peter's operation.

Only spent thirty minutes talking, Aditya can get to know the characteristics of those who have a soul like a native Indonesian, they really love this homeland until the walls of the warehouse room are red and white. Aditya also saw many pictures of the first President attached to the walls.

Aditya now has friends that he trusts enough, namely Arif, Nur, Bima, Rafael, Dawn, and Bagas. With them now numbering seven, training in using the weapons of the current era and also martial arts in the beginning until Aditya did not have any difficulties when training with all of them.

What was explained by them could be directly understood by Aditya even the complicated Mana ability could also be mastered quickly, due to his first and second life experiences... He is now a man who learns quickly.

There is nothing to learn about martial arts to Aditya because he is already quite proficient in doing silat, he even defeated them all by just using his martial arts alone. Aditya is really strong, so it's not wrong that he is a hero fighting for independence with his good friend who is the first President.

"I can now understand about the abilities of Mana..." Said Aditya who started staring at his two palms, a Mana line appeared and instantly enveloped his hand.
