Virtual Fighters Volume 1
Ch. 1 My First opponent
In a land in the middle of nowhere, the events that happened to Asna behind the school building are displayed in the height of the blue sky. The show finished after Asna was carried in a crowd by her school friends.
Then there is a conversation between a teacher and a student who is ten years old…
“After you saw the incident of the new fighter that the demon was about to prey just now, now you answer my question, why are each creature trying to pounce on each other?” The Master asked as he stroked his mustache.
Not having a mustache, The Disciple chose to stroke his chin and replied, “That's because of the laws of nature, lah, teacher. As the teacher once explained about eating chain.”
“Food chain!” The teacher corrected.
A moment later he commented on his student's answer. “You chose an answer you didn't like, why? Long time ago I explained about the food chain, You were tampering with disagree with the system...
The student again expressed his world view on life. “Murid knows that the key to the answer is in the balance. Please forgive me, teacher. To be honest the disciple still disagreed with the chain feeding system. All beings have the right to live freely. Other creatures cannot interfere. Let time end his freedom.”
“Your thoughts will be very destructive when you become the sole ruler of three countries. If only I were allowed to kill you now, I would not delay the goods for a second.. hahaha.” Laughter The Master breaks the peace of his surroundings. Making the birds fly because they are so shocked.
In the depths of his heart, the Master said, “Nurturing someone who will confess God will truly disturb my peace. He will take care of the devil's son who will drown me in the pit of hell. So far, no virtual warrior has met the criteria to match this disciple of mine. Somehow with that perverted warrior who almost died just now. I'll know his battle status after he wore [Ordinary Stone].”.
---------------------------------------
The Samarinda 25 High School Health Unit…
It's 13:30 in the afternoon. A girl from the School Health Unit was busy taking care of Asna, whom her friends had found a few hours earlier.
A little while later the girl passed away leaving Asna still accompanied…
--Ariyan Handoko-or commonly called Iyan.
Iyan was Asna's friend who was like her own brother. You see, only Iyan has treated Asna not only thousands, but hundreds of times.
Physically Iyan is taller than Asna, more handsome, more athletic, better his luck.
But in terms of popularity, Iyan is no more popular than Asna.
This proves, popularity does not guarantee quality.
Even at the end of the day the quality will be popular with the right promotional strategy and integrated.
“Na?!” reprimand Iyan. He moved Asna's body. “Wake, Na! Now it's time to go home!”
Irrespective of waking up, Iyan took half a glass of mineral water nearby. The sound of water spilling was heard afterwards. It turned out that half a glass of mineral water Iyan spilled onto Asna's face.
“Ah, Aaaaaaaaah..!!!” Asna screamed in surprise. Making a wheeled bed in the UKS room that he broke down swayed.
“Na? You're okay, right?” asked Iyan with an anxious tone and a flat face. This anxiety arises because He already considers Asna as his own brother. From childhood until high school they kept friends.
“Iyan? So far apparently I'm alive..” Asna replied while looking at her palm.
Iyan shook his head. “You're missing the pervert! Peeping chick until nosebleed as much as before. If we hadn't come, you might have died in thatch.”
“Groof? Wasn't that time my feet were tied to a creeping plant? Tired I asked for help. No one came. Oh, aye. Don't know why I fell?” Asna.
Accidentally Asna turned to the corner of the room.
“Hah?!” Asna flinched seeing the entity that used to be shown in theaters.
Long haired woman in white clothes. His fangs and nails look very long.
Which made Asna goosebumps, her fiery red eyes as if glaring towards Asna.
--KUNTILANAK---
Asna was really shocked to see Kuntilanak.
Though the memory that his father gave contains experiences related to mystical things like this.
But still Asna was not used to her own experience.
Iyan held Asna's hand. “Na?! Can you see it? Blink your eyes!” titah Iyan's.
Those with virtual knowledge can see virtual or other supernatural figures clearly. That is, Iyan also had that knowledge.
Asna blinked her eyes a few times. But this figure is still visible.
He then tried to rub his eyes. This figure still doesn't disappear!
“K-You just got virtual knowledge?” ask Iyan. “You are not indigo! I know you very well! You must have that knowledge now.”
While looking away, Asna asked back, “What knowledge..?”
“Virtual knowledge. The result of experiences related to mystical things. When did you get it? Pas earlier..?” Iyan was interrogating Asna.
Asna has actually understood the use of this virtual term.
Before gaining her father's legacy of knowledge and experience, Asna initially held the view that the term virtual was only for the information technology era, the networked world, the web.
The term in Indonesian is interpreted as (as if) real.
The meaning of “seolah” closed brackets indicates the term can be omitted in phrases or text.
Real and unreal are mixed into one. Like sugar dissolves in water. Sugar is invisible. Remain sweet.
Like the world between networks (internet) that are commonly used by humans to interact with other humans who are separated by distance.
They can interact in real terms.
But in fact they only meet in a virtual space, a virtual world.
This term is apparently also used to refer to other worlds that cannot be sensed by humans in general.
By warriors who guard the world from supernatural beings, the use of the term virtual is intended to refer to things that are related to subtle beings in general. Including their motivations to rule the human world.
In addition, indeed, the use of virtual terms memorable cooler and associated with the theme of the future is increasingly sophisticated.
“Maybe it's just my feeling,” Asna said. He tried to ponder from Iyan's guess about the virtual knowledge he had.
“You cannot lie...” Iyan replied while looking cynically at Asna. “Only we can see and feel the presence of supernatural beings in our world. When you can see it too, it means you're part of Us.”
Asna stared at the floor, constantly thinking about how to cover up the secret.
In fact, Iyan already knew that he had virtual knowledge. Asna then tried to make Iyan as the object of conversation. “You never told me you were a Virtual Warrior.”
“We're talking about you. Not Me.” Iyan caught Asna's intention. Asna's experiment failed.
Iyan continued, “The topic of the virtual world is taboo to talk about. It's already a curse. You should understand. Now you're a virtual warrior. At least tell me. That's also if you consider me a friend.”
Asna looked warmly at Iyan. “You're not a friend. You're my brother. All right, I got a virtual inheritance of knowledge from my father. Surprisingly He did not leave me the status of a fight, equipment, or anything else of value.”
“Serious?!” Iyan's brows furrowed as he exclaimed in shock. “I got a legacy from my late Grandma. Despite not getting equipment, at least I got fighting skills and some additional battle status.”
Iyan then took out a stone as big as a thumb.
This stone is named [Broken Ordinary Stone] which serves to detect the status of the fight.
As long as it stored the stone near the body, Iyan could keep an eye on the shadow of his battle status information. The information was like a screen that was directly above his left eye.
Battle Status information is divided into STR (strenght), VIT (vitality), INT (inteligence), DEX (dexterity), and MEN (Mentality). The amount of battle status using numbers makes it easier for Virtual Warriors to translate the current status of their battle.
Battle status Iyan…
STR 50'S
THE VIT 37
INT 15'S
THE DEX 20
MEN 20
The status Iyan has can continue to grow as long as he trains and learns.
Even as his physical status increased, Iyan was able to receive a legacy from his grandmother that had not been fully absorbed.
And vice versa. When Iyan was lazy to practice or study, some of his status would decline.
Iyan took Asna's palm and placed the [Broken Ordinary Stone] on it.
Asna's battle status appeared on the left temple, close to the eyes.
Asna Status…
STR 9'S
VIT 3'S
INT 1
DEX 1'S
MEN 1
Asna looked closely at his initial status of being a virtual warrior.
He then compared his status to his father's initial status as stored in memory. “Mayan, nih. Better than Dad.”
“Lumayan? It was inferior to ordinary humans. You don't know how difficult it is to raise status,” said Iyan who still touched [Broken Ordinary Stone] until he could see the status of Asna's fight.
Asna pushed the [Broken Ordinary Stone] towards Iyan. “You can legacy status. Yes, reasonable.”
While saving [Broken Ordinary Stone], Iyan commented, “That's strange. He's your father, right?”
“Can be yes, can also not. I'm an unexpected child, maybe.” Asna answered as was.
Iyan then gave rice wrap to Asna. Without further ado Asna unfolded the rice wrap and started eating voraciously. While solemnly eating, Asna's horror towards Kuntilanak is forgotten.
Iyan glanced at the wall clock after knowing Asna had finished eating. “How are you doing now? The recovery speed of a Virtual Warrior should be different from that of an ordinary human. But it looks like you're the exception.”
“You want to go home quickly?” asked Asna after having seen Iyan glanced at the clock. “You can go home first. Honestly, my head is still dizzy. You've seen, my body's ability to recover is only one point. Rest here until tomorrow school is not a bad plan.”
Iyan stood up from his seat, then displayed the [Broken Ordinary Stone]. “Only broken stone. It could be your status is better if checked using a good stone. Go home to my house. Later tonight I'll take you to the doctor.”
Asna. “I'll be fine here. I also want to familiarize myself with the changes I'm going through. Trust me.”
Iyan nodded and pulled Asna's device out of her school bag. “If anything, japri Me!” exclaim Iyan while leaving Asna.
After Iyan left, Asna fell asleep. His health condition has gradually recovered.
------------------------
It's dark. The sounds of crickets and earthworms sounded earthy.
Asna woke up feeling itchy on the face, feet and hands. He has been attacked by mosquitoes since the afternoon. Satisfied scratching the mosquito suction marks, Asna felt her stomach start to ache. The effect of rice wrap Iyan has disappeared apparently.
Asna glanced at the clock. It's already one in the morning. He got out of bed, walked to the medicine box.
Call the ulcer medicine Asna take from the box and start chewing it. He wanted to go back to sleep, but Kuntilanak's pacing presence made him very disturbed.
“Tante has no other work indeed. That's the importance of a diploma. Can you apply for a job!” asna said, to.
At first glance Asna saw two shadows passing through the UKS glass window. He was interested to know who that person was.
A few hours before Asna's soul could come out of the body. Apparently it's an ability.
Then he remembered the skill of his father who can realize another figure from himself. Injecting the mind into an empty body. He can finally use the body as his own.
Asna started thinking…
“Dad used a rough but transparent body to fill with his own thoughts. I didn't pass down that body. So I will try my knowledge of Father's legacy to produce my own skills...
“I start with the knowledge of self in a transcendental perspective. This is contained in the book of wisdom that I have read in the perpus...
“Kata Transcendent Member Peak Level, actually human self is a science.
“As far as I know, science is a tree of reason.
“Akal is used as a consideration to do something.
“By doing something, the self knows the appropriate and inappropriate thing to do.
“Become a self who knows many things, wise his name.
“Lot of heart in man covers the whole body. There is a heart when there is a living self.
“Life is characterized by body movements that are supported by heart rate, blood flow, and every breath. That's his name's life.
“No one lives without life. Life is the existence of the spirit.
“The problem is in the name. When I look, all this is just a name. Code to deliver understanding to humans so as not to have trouble knowing nature.
“So the so-called spirit is like that, yes…
“Finally, the combination of my father's science and intelligence led to a new conclusion. I know what exactly is called a spirit….
“Thank you, Father... To me, your knowledge and experience are more valuable than the material possessions in the universe.”
Asna then tried to divide her mind realm into two partitions.
Two souls but one.
One soul but two.
Having two souls certainly makes Asna able to think on two different things. Two programs run one processor on a personal computer system.
Skill launched…
[SECRET JURUS | SPLITTING SOUL LEAVING BODY]
Asna's soul came out of his body. Fly hovering, through UKS glass windows.
But most importantly, when one Asna soul can come out of his body, another soul remains in the body.
One soul wandered like a ghost. Asna can relax or do something else.
Asna's mind began to deviate from the norm but in line with her motivation. “Hihihi.. If it's like this, I don't have to peek anymore! It's like Brook's character in the One Piece series. Hihihi..”.
Asna's soul clearly saw the many virtual creatures in the forest behind the school. He was still horrified by the appearance of various forms of creatures that resembled humans but were unsightly.
Except for a figure that resembles an animal or monster. For Asna a creepy form of animal or monster is cool.
About 100 meters from Jiwa Asna, two masked men are trying to open a school cooperative ventilation. They are definitely “customer” cooperative. Special customers whose activities are only in the early hours.
Sure enough, in the early hours, there are crazy promotions for customers. Take all the items that customers can bring. Everything's free!
There is only one condition, you know. Customers can only bring goods as per their ability. That is, if you can empty the cooperative, just empty it!
In addition to crazy promotions, there are also lottery prizes. Early morning special customers can choose a money vault. When they can open it, they have the right to exhaust the contents.
Just spend. The police will not arrest as long as no one knows other than the customer himself.
Another name of this particular customer is thief.
Yes, these people are obviously thieves! Not customers!!!
Asna's soul approached the two thieves who were busy opening the vents while humming. Singing rap songs that are not rap! Asna's soul was upset by this man's singing.
“Rap what is it?! You're like Lekyoung!” the curse of the Soul of Asna which of course did not sound the thief.
A punch of annoyance was thrown at Asna's Soul. Spanking spirit. His hand must have pierced the thief's body.
Unable to hit adds to the resentment in Asna's soul.
Suddenly the humming thief was hit by his own partner's fist until it fell to the ground. The thief who gave a fist shouted furiously. “You are free to rap. Your right. But don't damage someone else's ears, Lek!”
The middle finger is the thief who fell.
The middle finger looked weak and then lay on the stomach.
“The man died!” the Soul of Asna. “I have to get used to things like this. Ah, right too. The body is dead. Maybe I can get into it.” Soon he entered the body.
Starting from the lower body. Then the upper body.
Asna's soul lay on the body of the dead thief.
He then tried to raise his hand.
His hand was raised, but not with the thief's.
Knowing this, Asna who was in the UKS room ventured to greet Kuntilanak. “Hai... Aunt Kunti, right? Can we talk for a minute?”
Kuntilanak stared intently at Asna as he continued to move, breaking through the wall and moving into the next room.
He suddenly reappeared with a look that was no longer creepy. “Can dong. I'm bored too. Yuk, we chat...” Kuntilanak said in a flat tone while approaching Asna.
Asna patted her eel. “Why do you go next door if you really want to chat?”
Kuntilanak grinned spookily as usual in horror movies. He then replied, “Barusan I clean the make up first. You must be uncomfortable if I dandan kayak earlier. I just feel uncomfortable wearing seven layers of powder.”
“Make up apparently..” Asna understood. “I thought you lost playing cards to a face full of flour.”
While closing his mouth, holding his shame, Kuntilanak replied, “Then, anyway. Early so Kunti I like to stay up late playing gaple. Hihihi..”.
Not wanting to waste time, Asna immediately conveyed her intention to talk to Kuntilanak. “Oh, yes. There's something I want to ask. How do you get into the human body?”
Kuntilanak smiles spoiled like a teenage girl. “It was, anyway, easy mas bro...” replied. “More precisely, easy difficult.”
“Simplitude two, difficulty one. How easy is it?” ask Asna back.
“Simple peeling. Stay plug, rotate and pull.” Kuntilanak answered with an analogy.
Asna practiced peeling activities.
Striking your nose is easy.
Playing it is easy too.
Especially interesting!
There are three of them!!!
It's just that something's still hard. “What's the trouble?” ask Asna.
“Find the medium hard,” replied Kuntilanak.
Asna toyed with her face as if confused while saying, “In the grave, right, a lot?”
“Corpse? We cannot possess the bodies of the dead. The person possessed must be a living body. It's just that his soul is so weak that it is helpless when Kami is possessed,” Kuntilanak explained.
“If the corpse can't, huh? Duh, why also I forced my soul into the corpse,” Asna thought.
Behind the cooperative, Asna's soul wriggled at the thief's corpse. Like a hot worm. He only stopped after getting information from Kuntilanak. “Ancrit! I was like an erotic dancer I was. Useless deeds!”
Asna's soul suddenly heard the cries of the surviving thief. Apparently this thief managed to break into vents made of iron.
“Lek! Don't pretend to faint! Hurry here!” He still did not realize that his punch had killed his own partner. “Lek?” The thief rushed down from the wall.
From his ability to walk on walls, this thief was likely a person with virtual knowledge. Virtual Fighters.
The thief felt his partner's neck veins that turned out to be without a heartbeat. “Weak basis! You can't use me to get into an empty house on Juanda.” street
Immediately and deftly the thief dug the ground using his own hands to make a hole. He planned to bury his partner's body in the burrow.
Through her second soul, Asna sees what the thief is doing. There was a sense of concern in him. In this day and age, human lives are often no more valuable than money.
Asna also heard about the empty house the thief was talking about. He was interested in going there. Asna then asked Kuntilanak. “Can you possess the body of a fellow virtual creature?”
“Virtual creatures, yes?” Kuntilanak started thinking.
A moment later he explained, “You humans call all creatures that do not have a rough body as virtual creatures. To my knowledge it is not so.
“I am from among the spirits of the spirits. My consciousness does not have a rough torso like a human.
“While the virtual creature you are referring to is a consciousness that has a rough body that is not rough. Between You and Me.
“If you die leaving a body, their death leaves an important part in their body. Horns, skin, claws, blood, and other materials. Except meat.
“While I died without any relics. As if there never was... Hihihi...!”
“It's just that you're real. Virtualized. You're not answering my question. Then why are you laughing? Why do you exist if you never existed?” Asna begins to sympathize with Kuntilanak who tells her a little.
“Skenario is already like that... Hihihi..!” Kuntilanak laughs.
From the observation of her soul, Asna saw the thief go to the UKS room.
She hid behind a closet.
“What's up?” ask Kuntilanak.
The UKS door was opened by the thief. “Who are you chatting with?!”
“I'm practicing comedy drama! Go!” suhut Kuntilanak's.
Unsatisfied with Kuntilanak's reply, the Thief pulled out a dagger. “Where Does He hide?” the Thief walks around the UKS.
Asna who saw the incident remembered the memory of her father. From that memory Asna knew that a subtle creature like Kuntilanak was actually not an opponent for even the weakest virtual warrior.
He soon came out of hiding.
“Why are you out?!” Kuntilanak seemed to disagree with Asna's decision.
“He must have found me. Just chill. This person does not seem difficult to handle,” explained Asna.
“Bare also You!” exclaim the Thief. “You may have that knowledge. Otherwise you can interact with low beings like kunti,” he continued.
The Thief immediately shoved the dagger into Asna's stomach. Movements like this can easily be avoided with two focuses of mind. Focus on hand movements and leg movements. Before Asna had called back her soul that came out of the body.
Unhit, Asna turned around and thrusting her index finger into the right eye of the thief.
Asna still got the momentum to make a second attack. This time It attacks ************.
The thief groaned in pain.
Soon Asna grabbed the fallen dagger.
“You are not my opponent,” Asna said while throwing a dagger in front of the Thief. Asna was arrogant. After all, he realized the ability to focus on two things at once was very beneficial against a virtual kroco fighter.
“Interesting...” Feeling yet to lose, the Thief grabbed the dagger and planned to attack again. With a swift Asna immediately kicked the Thief's face as hard as possible.
Asna's kick was already very maximal. But it does not make an impact on a virtual warrior.
“Why is your kick so weak?!” The Thief was obviously shocked by the kick Asna gave him. To him, if it was true that Asna was a virtual warrior, Asna's battle status could be ensured to still be very low.
Back the Thief harassed Asna. “Do not-do your status is low! Hahaha.”.
“You want to feel this?” Asna showed me her fists. An ordinary fist.
The thief stood up slowly. So far he has not been able to counter-attack Asna. “Good. I'm leaving now!”
Asna stared at the body of the Thief who was walking towards the door of the UKS vigilantly.
Right, suddenly the Thief turned around and attacked Asna.
With a swift Asna lowered her head and gave an upper cut to the thief's jaw. Not wasting an opportunity to attack, Asna punched the Thief's temple until it leaned against the wall. This time Asna's punch was harder than before.
A fist was again prepared Asna. “Yes, I admit defeat!” exclaim the Thief.
Asna turned towards Kuntilanak while still releasing a fist. “How? I'm great, right?” said Asna who again pongah.
There are a total of five fists that Asna is fighting. It's called Cuek's Boxing style!
“I admit defeat, asshole!” the thief again exclaimed. Asna stopped her punch while saying, “Go! Don't forget revenge!”
The thief stood up while holding his face which was no longer masked. Mask fell.
When He was at the door, He turned back. Asna certainly gave a blow that caused the Thief to lean on the door leaf. “I want to close the door, asshole!” shouted the Thief. He took a mask not far away near the door.
“That's spontaneous boxing! Hence, away from me!” lang Asna's.
The thief closed the door of the UKS politely. But without greetings.
After the thief left, Asna sat on the bed. Asna who was getting used to Kuntilanak chose to build a light discussion.
