The Man of the Future

Chapter 25 (Pure Red Crescent Tribe)

 The night was coming back, Purnama still appeared in the sky. At the top of Mount Well, there is a large triangular building, with a translucent dome. Standing majestically and firmly on the top of that mountain. The building was the residence of Or Well, and the center of the power of Mount Well.

Inside the building Er Well was having a serious conversation with someone very similar to her. The difference is only in the hair that is painted red light. It matches the color of the clothes he wears.

It was Or Well. Which was a member of the Old Gura-Gura, the strongest.

 

Er Well sat on the red sofa with sweetness. While Or Well looks can not stand still, he creeps like a lizard, in the dome of the building's invisibility.

"Dad, be serious. Father's position as the strongest person in the world will be threatened, with the presence of a person who claims to be named the Time Master. Who claimed to be 2000 years old," said Er Well, shaking his head to see the Or Well.

"Er, why are you so worried about that. If it has to happen, it happens. I am not a person who thirsts for power or titles. I just want to enjoy the rest of my life" replied Or Well, calmly.

But what about the Time Master, is Dad able to deal with it. If he had made a mess on Mount Well?" ask Er Well back.

"Honestly, after I analyzed the power of the hologram footage from Jim Wellmu. My strength is still far away when compared to him. Joining the 4 members of the Old Gura-Gura as well, the five of us are still no match. No I don't think there are still humans that are much stronger than the five of us. Even from the five of our teachers. Which has disappeared since 80 years ago" Or Well said, stopping creeping on the dome.

"Is he perhaps one of the five of your teachers?" ask Er Well back.

"I assure you no, our five Masters have been separated from any ambition. Especially for a statue like that. Even if they are still alive, they will not be interested in it" explained Or Well.

Er Well seemed to think. His eyes were staring at his father who was right above his gaze.

"If Father is unable to face the Time Master, even though he has joined 4 other Old Gura-Gura members. Then would you just shut up, if you really were going to attack Mount Well?" er Well asked, waiting for an answer from his father.

"Of course not, I'll fight whatever I have until I die. If he really was going to attack Mount Well. Because this mountain is mine" Or Well took it seriously.

As they were talking, suddenly Well 1, Clones from Or Well entered the room. Looks like he wants to convey something to Or Well and Er Well.

"Dad, Brother Er. Mark has come and brought his friends. Are they allowed to come in, Dad?" ask, and without thinking much more. Or Well invited him.

"Have them all come in, let me have a lot of friends to play with" Or Well said.

"Okay Dad," Well answered 1, then went back from the room.

"Dad, you better keep your servant in front of them. Don't act like a child. You'd better get down, and sit down at Dad's, '" Er Well said.

"You are like the Pusians, too obedient to the ancient rules. I can't possibly obey all of your words, Junior," Or Well said.

Er well then fell silent not much to say anymore. He was more focused on the presence of Mark and his friends who had been in the room.

"Dad, are you here too?. Where is Grandpa," Mark asked with a smile to Er Well.

"Look at your grandfather's behavior, which creeps up on this dome. You didn't see it!?" sahut Er Well, pointing towards his father. It was seen by Mark and his friends. It was strange to see the manner of Or Well, the living legend of the Old Gura-Gura. Who acted like a child.

"I did not expect, Mr. Or who is so famous and is one of the 5 legends of the Old Gura-Gura. Turns out it's like this?" franco. Which immediately provoked a reaction from Or Well.

"What's wrong with my behavior?" or Well said, then gazed at Franco sharply, who was focused towards the red crescent tattoo on his chin.

Franco looked calmly noticed like that. Even if his heart is afraid, if Or Well offended by his words.

"Oh..!, you deserve to be chatty. Even if you're not as handsome as Pusia. I can confirm you're a student of the handsome Pusia. And you're from the pure Red Crescent," said Or Well, then jumped down from the dome. Then sit next to Er Well.

Franco was puzzled to hear the pure Red Crescent Tribe spoken by Or Well. Franco had never known at all, and had heard the name of a tribe that came from the Moon colony before. Including from Pusia. Which seems to want to hide the true identity of Franco.

"I am indeed a disciple of Pusia, Mr. Or. But I don't know at all, about the pure Red Crescent Tribe?. And what does this have to do with me?" asked Franco, who seemed to want to ask for an explanation from Or Well.

"So Pusia didn't tell you that?" ask Or Well.

"Yes, Mr. Or. He never told me that" Franco said.

"You should all sit down, are you not tired of standing alone. And don't be afraid of me, I'm not all that rumor out there. I'm a friend to anyone" said Or Well, trying to shift the subject to Franco.

Mark and his friends sat on the sofa in the room.

Or Well looked at their faces one by one. He smiled and spoke again.

"Like Reunion alone, meeting with the heirs of the Old Gura-Gura ability. You must be Clark, the grandson of the Clerk he's so proud of. Because he's young, but he's already the leader of the hit men in the Pacific Water City" he said, staring at Clark.

"Yes, I'm Clark. The grandson of the Poison God Clerk. And this is Nack, my foster brother," Clark replied firmly.

Or Well smile. Then look at Jean and Little Jean.

"2 This beautiful face reminds me of a beautiful woman, the goddess of the Seer Kasandra. Must you be Kasandra's granddaughter?" ask Or Well.

"Yes, I'm Jean. Grandson of the Goddess of the Seer Kasandra. And this is my clone. Little Jean, his name" replied Jean.

Or Well, then stared intently at Abel, Axel and Adel. His gaze focused on the New Gura-Gura mark that the three of them had.

"You three members of the New Gura-Gura huh?. Want to infiltrate Mount Well?" or Well, a little loud.

"Yes, we're members of the New Gura-Gura. But that was then, now that we have come out of the New Turtle. And want to be a resident of Mount Well, which you lead, Mr. Or," Abel said, representing his friends.

Or Well then got up and walked over to the three of them. Then stop right in front of the three of them.

"If you three are serious about becoming residents of Mount Well. I don't like that New Gura-Gura sign. I want that mark off your forehead" Or Well said.

"If we could, we would like to remove this sign, but the problem is that we can't remove this mark made by Mr. Dran" Abel said, Or well smiling at the answer.

"If it's Dran himself, who made the mark. Looks like I'm the one who has to intervene to remove the mark...."

both hands Or Well then move. Or Well's right hand touched the New Gura\-Gura mark, which was on Abel's forehead. While the left to Axel's forehead. It is clearly visible from both hands. Black smoke came out from the sign of the New Turtle, which he was annihilating from the forehead of Abel and Axel. What is now the sign of the New Turtle and its membership number has disappeared from their foreheads.

Or Well then touch his right hand towards the sign of the New Gura-Gura on Adel's forehead. And the same thing happened to Adel, the sign of the New Turtle and its membership number had disappeared from his forehead.

"Definitely with the loss of the New Gura-Gura mark. Dran will soon track down the three of you" said Or Well, picturing Dran's face. He is one of the 5 members of the Old Gura-Gura. And is the head of the New Gura-Gura.

"So, with the disappearance of the New Gura\-Gura mark. We've officially become residents of Mount Well?" ask Abel.

"Any condition we will accept" replied Abel.

Or Well smiled at the three of them. Heard the reply of Abel.

"What, if the three of you infiltrate and destroy the New Turtle from within?" or Well looks serious.

The three of them looked silent, but a moment later. Abel spoke up again, representing his 2 friends.

"Maybe we can do anything for Mr. Or, but we can't do that. To infiltrate and destroy the New Gura-Gura from within. It's not that we're afraid to do that. But we couldn't possibly betray the most meritorious person in the lives of the three of us. Better Mr. Or, kill all three of us. Instead of us having to do that" hearing Abel's words, Or Well smiled and laughed loudly.

"Ha.!, I like your attitude. Don't take my words seriously, I'm just kidding. After all, I am one of the members of Old Gura\-Gura. So how could I possibly destroy the New Gura-Gura. Although different vision and mission with Old Gura-Gura. Turns out, even if Dran was a little crazy. But managed to instill the value and meaning of loyalty in you," said Or Well, then sat back next to Er Well.

"Then what about Mr Or's decision, are we accepted as residents of Mount Well?" ask Abel.

"Yes, I accept you to be residents of Mount Well. But you have to obey all the rules I make. Especially the rules about your entry and exit to Mount Well. Without my orders or my permission, you can't get out of Mount Well. But if you want to get into Mount Well. You just need to report with the post guard at the foot of Mount Well" explained Or Well firmly.

"We understand, and will abide by all those rules" said Abel, who was signed by Axel and Adel.

Or Well then looked at Franco, as if he knew what was in Franco's mind.

"It seems you're thinking about what I said earlier, about the pure Red Crescent Tribe?" said Or Well, which made Franco a little surprised.

"How, Lord Or knows with my mind that?" ask Franco.

"If it's just like this, that stupid Mark can do it too" replied Or Well, as if to insinuate Mark.

"If I'm stupid, then Grandpa is weird. If you already know what Franco is thinking, why don't you just tell him. Strange old man" hearing Mark's words, Or Well laughed.

"Ha.ha.!, other than the members of the Old Gura-Gura. Just you, Mark. Who dared to say I was weird" Or Well stopped his laughter.

He now looked solemn, his eyes staring intently at Franco's chin with the red crescent sign.

"Well Fran, I'll tell you and I'll explain what and who the pure Red Crescent Tribe is. I'm not going to repeat the story that Pusia told me."

Or Well then took a deep breath, before he told her about the pure Red Crescent Tribe.

"Red Crescent, is one of the 9 tribes that inhabit the Moon colony. With the least number of humans. And with a curse must not marry a fellow pure Red Crescent. So when there was a massive attack by an army of robots that out of nowhere it came from, 100 years ago to the Moon, Mars and Earth. So the inhabitants of the Moon and Mars colonies, which were limited to extinction, only a few people from the Red Crescent Tribe managed to save themselves and return to Earth, as their place of origin. Including Pusia, who was a baby at the time," Or Well said, then ended the story.

"Why has Pusia kept this a secret to me?. Although I am the Son of Adopt Jhon Swett, but I am closer and stay longer with him. Than with my adoptive father?" franco asked himself, But Or Well answered him.

"I think he has his own reasons for not telling you this. I know what kind of Pusia is. You could say he was a loner. But he cares deeply about people close to him. Maybe Pusia thought, he did not want to make yourself feel like himself, because he knew his tribe was extinct and came from the Moon. Did you ever see him staring at the full moon with a blank look?" Franco seemed to be thinking, trying to remember about it.

"Yes, often and always staring at the full moon with a blank stare. I don't know, why does he do that so often?" franco answered with his memory.

"Because he misses his hometown and his tribe. All he could hear from his Master" said Or Well.

"It turns out that Pusia suffered a lot in his life, it is fitting that he became such a loner. I am still luckier than him. I didn't know the story until Mr. Or told me. Nor do I have any emotional connection to the Red Crescent Tribe and the human colonies on the Moon" Franco said.

Everything then fell silent, but suddenly the Jim Well belonging to Or Well rang. Signs someone's calling him. Or Well see that Jim Well.

Looks the face of a man who is the same age as himself with hair dyed yellow, a slightly tapered face with skin slightly blacker than mature sapodilla. Her hair was not long, but stood up in front and slightly tailed behind her. And on his forehead there is a sign of the New Gura-Gura numbered 1. Yes, he is Dran, the chairman of the New Gua-Gura. And an old friend of Or Well, who was a member of the Old Gura-Gura.

It seems Dran has known, if the three men were on Mount Well.

Knowing Dran contacted him. Or Well then press the Jim Wellnya button. That makes Dran's hologram out of his Jim Well. It came in its original size before all of them. And Dran immediately spoke to Or Well.

"Sweird grandfather!, how dare you arrest my men, and recruit them into the inhabitants of Mount Well!" said Dran without pause.

"Based on Crazy Grandpa who's chatty!, never changes. Always accuse people without reason and definite facts" said Or Well, no less fiercely.

"The fact is, the three of them are in your place. And their membership mark you've lost. I lack proof moreover!?. The three of them are mine, not yours. So give the three of them back, or I'll attack Mount Well in full force...!" threaten Dran to Or Well.

"You're so chatty, Dran!. If you want to attack, attack. You think I'm afraid of you?. Remember Dran, 50 years ago. I'm the greatest of the five of us. And it will never change until now, I am the strongest, among the five of us" Or Well said firmly.

"BUT NOW I'M STRONGER THAN YOU!" said Dran insistent, which makes Or Well become insistent anyway. Until Er Well also spoke, to break up the fight.

"In addition to the God of Poison Clerk, surely the situation will become more noisier. Dad, Uncle Dran. You are like a child, if you are just like this. Especially if you meet in person. It can directly hit you guys, but after getting tired. You will surely embrace each other. Uncle Dran you better ask your three men. What's really going on" said Er Well, who made Dran and Or Well stop their babbling.

"You're right, too, Well Junior" Dran responded, stopping his chatter. Then he asked his three men.

"Three of you, what really happened to you. Did that Strange Grandpa force you to join forces and become residents of Mount Well?" ask Dran, with full investigation.

"No, it's our own desire to be residents of Mount Well. And we have declared ourselves out of the membership of the New Gura-Gura" Abel said, representing his friends.

And that made Dran very angry.

"HOW DARE YOU SAY THAT. RETURN TO GURA-GURA ISLAND NOW. OR I'LL KILL YOU GUYS LATER!" said Dran loudly.

"No!, we don't want to make a mess anymore" Abel said.

"HOW DARE YOU CHALLENGE MY WISHES!" said Dran, full of anger.

"It was Dran, let them choose their own way of life. You can't impose your will on them anymore. Now they're under my protection" said Or Well, firmly, then pressed the Jim Well button. The hologram's connection is severed, along with the disappearance of Dran's hologram.

"You guys should get some rest. Mark take your friends for a break" Or Well ordered.

Mark stood up followed by his friends.

"You follow me" said Mark, then stepped on his feet. Followed by his friends. Get out of that room, where Or Well and Er Well are.

The two of them then talk back to finish off the night.
