The Tetuka Adiwira

Hikayat Negarakrtgama Ihwal Ten

The interview session is still ongoing. I have to explain it to the best of my ability so that people can get their point out of my statements.

“I emphasize that this statement of mine is not a statement that harasses any religion. I don't think he is a god. He was not a prophet, nor an angel. Just like the legends of the hero of this nation that have been recorded. Call it Mahapatih Gajahmada with his power to successfully unite the archipelago. At least that's the first concept of unity we know. The heroes either by force or strategy drove the invaders. From the Dutch and Japanese colonial times, the heroes of the nation with various powers and powers continue to attack the enemy, although many died on the way, but their existence became a counterweight and resistance to darkness. In the era of independence, Sukarno with his power in ideas and government to build this country, although not a few who think that Sukarno himself has the magic that makes him often escape the threat of assassination. This devotion is also considered to make it able to unite the nation that is very broad and different mindsets and cultures. So also Suharto, the president of these two nations who in addition to successfully contribute to the development of the country even though through various controversies, is also considered to have a certain power so that he can survive rule without falling for 32 years.

“All the figures are present in every leaf of this nation's age. Today, when corruption is rampant, crime is blind, the nation's morale falls, money becomes God and arbitrariness reigns, it is not impossible for a hero to appear, not with ideas and strategies, it is not impossible for a hero to emerge, but back with incredible physical strength. A powerful devotion like in the past, where mouths, ideas and negotiations no longer work. Where the head becomes a weapon capable of subduing evil.”

My long description without me knowing turned out to be fiery and passionate. All the eyes in the studio shone from being excited, or hesitant, or disappointed, or curious. Everything becomes one.

Before long, interviews were spent with depictions of events as well as physical traits of the superhero. A young man in his twenties, with a body that was not too big, a little slender but looked contained and sturdy. Black hair with long responsibilities came out disheveled from his hoodie. The skin is brown which is not too dark typical of Indonesians. Either he was from the Javanese, Sundanese or Malay tribe. Practically all of his physical features that I can record refer to an ordinary young man. He wasn't wearing a mask or anything to cover up his identity, maybe just a hoodie he was wearing (even if I thought far. I think his hoodie he was wearing to withstand the wind when he was jumping or flying).

If he is among the community, people may only recognize him as a student or musician because of his long hair responsibility is slightly disheveled and his current style of dress.

I explained in detail all the occurrences and physical features or crumbs of any information recorded in my head. Of course, 80% of my explanations are similar to those of journalists. The skeptics of course think I'm just cheating and memorizing all the information I've gotten from the media three days before just to make it sound similar and real.

I don't really expect everyone to believe me, it takes struggle and official statements from me and everyone who supports this fact to give real information to the public. Journalists also need to be more hunting and sensitive to news about the superhero so as not to miss it again.

But there are still questions Erika left answers. Although this has also been a part of our scenario, inevitably when Erika asks her back her sentence like floating in space, “But how do you believe that this mysterious figure is a hero, a superhero, a superhero, the title we've long attached to her? What if he was an evil character, a villain, an opponent of superheroes whose only goal was to disrupt security and create chaos? Or what if it was only someone with extraordinary strength but no special purpose? Regardless of the record of the case he allegedly did against the criminals, is not doubt still left the arbitrary behavior and vigilante on the figures who are still not real criminal acts? Call it the politician we know with his scandal when he ‘dulik’ by the superhero and forced to admit all his crimes. This case is still a mystery. Is he really the perpetrator of corruption and all the stories are true, or just because of the extraordinary coercion and threat of the superhero? What about the police general's kidnapping? One more thing Mr State, does not the Police itself still deny the existence of this figure until now?”

“Mbak Erika, honestly I can never answer all your questions exactly and confidently. But one thing, and this I've never done much less as a scientist and a researcher, namely that I only believe that he is present as an answer to the chaos and distrust of the people with their lives and leaders.”

It's time to go back to waiting for the action of the superhero and the general he has kidnapped. My decision is not without risk. The police will see this as an act of sedition or disquiet the community. I could have been charged with various charges and I could have been arrested. The politicians will sneer and growl with my behavior as if turning against them. Perhaps further, the religious will see my opinion as something that has the potential to mislead the Ummah. My statement sounded like deifying a figure who could be a demon or a genie with a physical resemblance to a human. It is also possible that scientists, legal and social practitioners assume that my actions are beyond reason and without heeding scientific analytical patterns.

My life would be insecure after this interview.

Unless the superhero immediately shows up to carry out his duties as a hero as I expected and I believe so as to give an answer that suits my every statement.

Pucuk loved ulam also arrived. It didn't take long for this country to get what they were waiting for. The superhero finally shows his existence.
