The Groaning From Behind the Grave

chapter 18: One piece of advice before leaving

" why are you sure you want to go back to that house? "

Aryo glanced at the juno standing beside him.

While inhaling a deep breath, aryo nodded with a confident face.

" i'm sure jun. did you forget what the arjo pakde said earlier, " said aryo on juno who looks just silently sculpted.

" b-but mas, what about.., "juno's sentence was interrupted when he saw aryo who was looking at him sharply.

" you mean that figure "aryo said to juno.

Juno nodded slowly with a pale face.

" quiet juno, did you forget the words of the arjo pakde earlier if the figure will not be able to harm us directly, " said aryo to juno.

Juno was speechless to hear aryo's explanation, even though she agreed with the decision made by her best friend, but actually her heart was a little reluctant.

" believe me juno, all this terror will end, "along aryo while wearing the helmet he was carrying.

juno nodded then rushed himself also wearing a helmet.they intend to return to the hamlet paduh (aryo hamlet ). after talking with the arjo pakde.

Amidst the dim atmosphere due to the overcast scroll in the sky, aryo's eyes briefly caught sight of a motorcycle from a distance heading towards him.

The motorcycle appeared to be carrying two strangers.

" who are they? " whispered aryo full of question marks.

the motor was getting closer and then just passed in front of aryo.seen the two people occasionally glanced at aryo and juno with a suspicious and.

" who are they jun? " ask aryo slowly.

Juno shook his head but his face looked thoughtful.

" i don't know mas, I don't know them, maybe they are residents of this hamlet, " Juno concluded.

the two men parked the motorbike in the yard next to the house of the arjo pakde. then they immediately rushed down.

" joko, rahman..., "

" arjo sir, "greet one of them to the owner of the house.

Aryo turned his head when the voice of the arjo pakde sounded from the direction of the terrace.it was seen the middle-aged man smiling towards the two people earlier, as if giving a welcome.

I don't know what they were talking about, aryo did not hear so clearly because of the distance is quite far. But aryo can see the views of the two people several times glanced at him.

Aryo felt that they were talking about him.

After a few minutes passed, the two men left to pass from the front of the arjo pack.The two of them then approached the motorbike and left in a hurry.

" dad, are we going straight home? " tanya juno who broke aryo's daydream.

" we go straight to jun. Remember that! Our next goal is to go to my house. I have to find that thing.the relic of my wife, "sahut aryo.

" well then, "the word juno approves.

When they were about to get on the motorbike and were about to leave, the sound of the arjo pakde was stung calling them.

" aryo, juno, wait a minute, "said pakde arjo rushing near them.

" what's wrong, sir? " ask juno in the back seat. This time the motor is Aryo.

Not answering, pakde arjo reached into something from his pants pocket and handed it to aryo.

" what is this, sir? " asked aryo while observing the package-like object in wonder.

" let's just say this is a protective talisman for you when entering the house.I feel that the dark force is getting bigger.There are only a few more children who have not disappeared. and if all the children in this village disappear, you already know what happened after that, "

" a plague is coming to this village. The plague that started the resurrection of sulastri.that's what you mean pakde, " replied aryo when he remembered the chatter in the living room earlier.

Pakde arjo nodded.His eyes looked at the blackish blue sky with a hard to interpret view.

" right son aryo, because sulastri is a human who is bound to the ancient demon of the pedestal itself.so his resurrection back to the human dimension must require a lot of collateral, no longer small children, no longer children, but the lives of those who are innocent, "said pakde arjo.

" and your wife is only one of the victims of the treaty of sulastri. find that thing, then your wife's tribe will be free. Find a place that has been guarded by your wife, the followers of the sulastri sect, have a special room to do the worship, " said pakde arjo.

When pakde arjo said that, somehow aryo remembered something. a room? what does the mysterious room arjo mean in his house?

" is the mysterious room what Pakde meant? Is it in the room that I want to perform the perverted ritual to surf his work as a biduan? " bisik aryo increasingly frustrated with his own assumptions and assumptions.pakde arjo story turned out to open a new record about his wife. about all the rituals that had been done by his wife without knowing her.

" good son aryo, advice pakde better you go to the house immediately. Because pakde got a report from the two residents if one child goes missing again, " said pakde arjo.

Juno gasped at the words.

" well if it's like that, sir, me and Juno will return to the house.whatever the risk, the safety of children's lives and the citizens are the top priority, "he said firmly.

" also the soul of the soul of the kinanti.., " continued aryo.

Pakde arjo nodded in agreement.From behind his lips, the old man revealed a proud smile.

" may your journey be smooth always. Remember to find the hair and comb it. because the two objects that will be the gate in penetrating the magical dimensions on the plinth, " said pakde arjo.

" dimension supernatural pakde, "uncomprehending juno, asked nervously.

" right juno, in fact the children were hidden by the members of the sect, not in the human realm, but the occult realm that is not reached by ordinary views, " said the arjo pakde.

" and remember aryo, according to the news delivered by the residents, there are some suspicious people who often go back and forth into the plinth. I suspect they are members of the sulastri sect who are preparing to perform the bloody ritual, " said pakde arjo to aryo.

" well sir, long words I will always remember.well if so, please say goodbye, " said aryo. the man immediately turned on his motorbike and left after saying hello.

Pakde arjo nodded.The corner of his eyes that had been longing to look at two people who were now away.but in the darkening atmosphere, the corner of his dry lips revealed a smile.

" go kliwon boy, "he said with a mysterious expression.
