Virtual Fighters Volume 1
Ch. 5 I am an NPC
At exactly 6 p.m., the GWM members returned to their homes. At that time Iyan forced Asna to come home. Asna of course according because Iyan again showed his device.
When Asna arrived at Iyan's house, Asna smiled alone. This time without Iyan knowing. Asna's smile hinted that her soul was getting something very precious. Moreover, he managed to invite Bovak.
Asna's soul has come to the last legacy that Rode wants to gain. The last location is a 100 square meter room filled with plants such as dandelions that emit light.
Asna looked at the bones of a warrior who was also a virtual warrior who was still sitting firmly on a rock. A person who pays his last respects to this body will make himself an heir.
A legacy of ten thousand battle status points and a set of legend equipment!
Imagine, by training hard, a normal virtual warrior could raise his battle status by 10 points in a month. When calculated one year can get 120 points. To reach 10,000 points, a virtual warrior would need at least 83 years!
By getting this inheritance, a prospective heir only needs to undergo an exam for approximately one and a half years. In addition there was the bonus of a set of legend equipment. A very lucrative legacy!
There are three stages that a prospective heir must go through to get an inheritance. The first stage defeats the Common Hair Bekantan. The second stage picked up the item [Clear Buntat]. The third stage defeats the five spirits of gambling masters in the game of poker. After that, the heirs are entitled to inheritance.
Now this Rode has successfully completed the first stage of inheritance acceptance, allying with the virtual Bekantan Ordinary Hair creature.
To be able to take the inheritance, the Rode had to evolve Ordinary Bekantan Hair into Silverhair Bekantan.
It took at least a year because before becoming Silverhair Bekantan, Ordinary Hair Bekant had to evolve first into Bronzehair Bekantan.
After obtaining the [Clear Bunt] without killing the Giant Red Centipede, Rode had to earn as many virtual coins as possible to win a poker game with five gambling master spirits. Running out of coins can make life a bet.
The greater the legacy value, the more difficult the exam will be. The level of difficulty rather than the exam was of course to find a potential heir who deserved it.
Asna has understood the stages of receiving inheritance. But his current battle status was not worth it to the Rode in an attempt to usurp the status of heir. Moreover, his current spirit could only be a spectator.
It was not her legacy that made her smile. But ancient records written on the walls of the room.
The letters and language used in this account are from the third generation of the ruling kingdom in East Kalimantan at that time, Kartaraja. The kingdom reached its peak of glory about 1200 years ago.
With her father's knowledge, Asna was able to read those records. The Rode can't read it. The extra points that made Asna smile more.
This record contains the ability of human thinking that can penetrate the subconscious. This breakthrough will cause humans to enter a completely new realm of thinking. Nature without letters, without symbols, and without meaning…
At Iyan's house, Asna begins to record what her soul sees in the secret inheritance room. Studying these notes will make his knowledge increase. It is likely to be useful to be a cool virtual fighter. Asna's motivation is quite the coolest guy. The best thing is that it is just a bonus.
Repeatedly Iyan peeked at Asna's activity taking notes. Asna moved repeatedly. After taking notes, Asna then told the contents of the notes he made. It turned out to be just a training menu to be a Virtual Warrior version of Asna. Of course the record was just Asna's wits to cover up the actual secret record.
The night of the week goes by with the mobile game MOBA genre. After playing the game, Asna fell asleep. All his thoughts are rested. Asna's soul that was previously in the secret room of the inheritance disappeared. Back to Asna's body.
--------------------------------------------
On a Sunday morning, in a luxurious ulin house, Bovak was laying his head on the lap of a grandmother. The figure of a fairly prominent old man in Samarinda City, Nini Seke.
The word “seke” in the language culture of one of the tribes in Kalimantan means “pelit” bin medit. The title obtained by Bovak's grandmother refers to the maximum level of protection skills that he has as an old virtual fighter.
Protection in everything he has.
It's hard to get anything from Nini Seke. Even a hypocritical smile will not be given to others.
With a forced handsome face, Bovak complained to Nini Seke. “Bovak has never treated anyone like this, Ni. If it hurts someone else ever. Anyway, Nini should help Bovak return this shame.”
“You must patiently undergo the custom that is in that place. Already Nini said all this is your stepping stone to become a great virtual fighter and continue the business of Nini..” said Nini Seke lovingly.
Bovak stared at Nini Seke's face using her watery eyes. Bovak looks like a criminal asking for milk to a mother he does not know. “Nini.. So far Bovak has been very patient. But even Nini will not be patient if Nini's goods are taken for granted!” lamented Bovak.
Nini Seke's face turned violent hearing Bovak's complaint. “What?! How dare they take something from my most handsome grandson!”
“Makanya, help Bovak reply to shame,” pinta Bovak.
Nini Seke then stroked Bovak's oily head. It was so greasy that it formed a bar of margarine in his hand. “What does Bovak want? Say...” said Nini Seke while wrapping oil from Bovak's hair with plastic.
Back Bovak looked at Nini Seke's face. This time with a hopeful face.
Getting a reply to the gaze of affection from Nini Seke, Bovak gave a line code on his neck using thumbnails…
-----------------------------
Kala Bovak made a plan with Nini Seke, Iyan invited Asna to train physically by running up the mountain.
They continued to practice until lunch.
After a nap break, the exercise continues in the afternoon by doing push-ups and sit-ups.
There is a load on the legs and shoulders of Asna that is intended for the muscles of Asna to be strong. Strong muscles will raise Asna's strength status. Status that significantly impacts on attack power and has little impact on durability.
Routinely Asna and Iyan checked his battle status with the [Broken Ordinary Stone].
Battle status Iyan…
STR 51S
THE VIT 37
INT 15'S
THE DEX 20
MEN 20
The battle status of Asna…
STR 9'S
VIT 3'S
INT 1
DEX 1'S
MEN 1
There is an increase in the status of regulations in Iyan. But not with Asna.
Iyan tried to raise Asna's spirit. “You don't worry too much. Just the first day. We have to keep practicing regularly. The main characters in anime are usually like you, right? Hahaha.”.
-------------------------------------
The next day, after Monday's Flag Ceremony, Asna who walked with Iyan and Irvan found Dinia who did not want to be approached by Bovak.
They immediately hid to laugh.
This laughter resumed after they saw Dinia looking sullen in the classroom.
Dinia could not bear to comment on the trio's unclear behavior. “What are you laughing at? Don't-don't.”.
“Throttle once!” sahut Irvan's. “Saturday afternoon We saw Bovak being beaten up by a gambling mobster. It seems like there is debt! Hahaha.”.
“Really?” Dina looks interested.
With body style lying on Dinia's table, Asna boasted, “Luckily I came howling... uh, help. Otherwise, Bovak would have died, dear..”.
Dinia immediately jumped onto the chair when she saw Asna who was like a snake of satiety. “Iiihh... Jijay! Ugly fellows are obliged to help!” dinia exclaimed while spraying perfume that she thought was disinfectant towards Asna.
“Keep, why did you want to be with Bovak yesterday?” sindir Iyan's.
While grinning towards the door, Dinia replied, “Itu..ih, because..” Dinia had difficulty answering Iyan's question because Mr. Haris had entered the class.
Knowing the presence of Mr. Haris, Iyan rushed back to his seat.
Irvan rushed to her class.
Asna…
He was still lying on Dinia's table.
A fist landed on Asna's stomach. His saliva spouted into the face of Mr. Haris. “Asna! Run 25 times around the field!” snapped Mr. Haris.
“Ready, Dan!” Asna immediately went out of class.
Just one round of Asna running around the field, three thugs emerged from the back wall of the school.
At first Asna didn't care. But these three people moved very quickly while staring intently at him. Of course Asna chose to pull over.
Not unexpectedly Bovak directly kicked Asna stomach to fall on the sidelines. “Quick bring! Before anyone sees!” exciting Bovak.
Three of Bovak's thugs immediately took Asna to the wall.
Neti and Agustin who happened to pass by, were surprised by the presence of the thugs who carried Asna. “Asna?! Hey, You guys!!” scream Neti. Agustin joined in exclaiming, “Call Mr. Haris, Net!”
Bravely, Agustin pursues the three thugs that brought Asna.
At this time Asna was carried over the wall.
A thug blocks Agustin from putting up a fight. A fight between the thugs and Agustin ensues.
Asna who still feels pain in the stomach can still watch the fight Agustin who is not the opponent of these thugs. Looking further, Asna saw Bovak chasing Neti. “N-Max...!” yell Asna with a minor volume.
Agustin who saw the motion of Asna's lips turned to look at Neti. “Neeet!!!”
Concerning Neti, Agustin was hit by a kick in the shoulder.
Suddenly Agustin's assailant hit the ground with his head full of blood.
Likewise with the two men who brought Asna, there was no wind without a storm, they fell down.
A few seconds later Bovak who was chasing Neti was hit by a kick Pak Haris.
“You're overdue, Bovak!” said Mr. Haris. He immediately took Bovak away.
In this period the school is not too uproar because the students are just starting the lesson.
Fifteen minutes passed.
Three of Bovak's thugs were taken to hospital with injuries. While Asna sat leaning on the pole of the school accompanied by Agustin and Neti.
“Who beat them up?” agustin asked in confusion as he glanced towards Asna. Feeling uncomfortable, with Agustin's gaze, Asna answered short, “Where I know!”
Just three words. That includes short.
“You didn't see I came to help?” said Mr. Haris who suddenly appeared beside Agustin.
“Eh, Mr... Look, anyway, but is it that fast?” balas Agustin.
“You won't be able to see! This father is great!” Mr. Haris replied casually.
Sayup-sayup was heard shouting Bovak outside He from BP Room. “Why am I treated like this? We are both Virtual Warriors! We have our own tradition of solving problems! We have protected you from virtual beings! you guys hear that?!”
While stroking his forehead, Mr. Haris commented, “Jeez, Bovak! Here's what happens when you can't grow up!” Soon Mr. Haris came to Bovak.
Neti and Agustin heard clearly Bovak's words. But the meaning of the words they do not know.
“Bovak is stressed?” Agustin was stunned to see Bovak's childish behavior.
Instantly Neti hit Asna on the head.
“Awww…! N-Max!” asna who groans in pain.
“What business are you doing with that guy?!” reprimand Neti.
Asna replied with ketus, “That's take care of... Miscellaneous affairs, N-Maks! You're just like my girlfriend! Yours..”.
Back Neti hit Asna on the head. This blow stopped Asna's scolding. “You can't be careless! Looks like you're obsessed with being my girlfriend!”
Asna is back to reply, “What?! You think I..”
Not finished replying, Neti again cut. “Indeed yes! You've been following me since Junior High! Until you dare to defend me!”
“That time?! I'm like that with all the girls! You're the one who got carried away!” sahut Asna's.
“Yes, you're a cheap guy who likes all girls! I am, after all, ordinary!”
“I don't like it either!”
The debate of Asna and Neti continued until the first lesson was over. They disperse by themselves.
----------------------------------
Asna returned to routine activities as a student as well as a virtual fighter. With Iyan of course.
In the off-school hours, Asna and Iyan always train themselves. Practice physically in the morning and evening. Training the mind to improve intelligence at night.
On the sidelines of physical training, they practice fighting to increase critical attacks.
A week has passed, Asna has not experienced a change in status.
On Saturday, they heard the news of Bovak's death.
The hospital said Bovak had heart failure after consuming excessive energy drinks.
However, the news conveyed by Mr. Haris to GWM members is different.
Bovak is said to be cursed by death for passing on the secret of virtual knowledge orally to Bu Lili and some other students who are not virtual fighters.
After being handled by Mr. Haris, Bu Lili and the students who got virtual confidential information from Bovak became understanding. If the secret was leaked, the curse of death would come to them as well.
Gaining virtual knowledge and not dying, making Bu Lili and the students enter the virtual warrior circle.
------------------------------
The day passed with ordinary activities from Asna.
Exercise, learn and peek at the development of the Rode.
Dozens of times Rode has called someone called “papa” who is not actually Rode's father. The topics they talked about were only about recruitment of members and plans to control a region of the virtual world.
Another important point Asna captured from the Rode conversation was to utilize Foggoblin. That is an immeasurable number of virtual beings living in the concentration of fog. If this plan is successful, there is a possibility of a major war.
Asna actually wanted to tell this to Mr. Haris. It's just that he doesn't have any concrete evidence.
Until the next Saturday.
As on the previous Saturday, Asna underwent a routine farming on the edge of the forest. He also received Irvan's invitation to do a little exploration into the.
After lunch, Asna continued the activity of selling objects dropped by virtual creatures to get coins. Virtual coins then Asna used to play Domino Qiu-Qiu and Poker gambling.
By using a cheating technique, which is peeking at the opponent's cards, Asna wins easily. Of course succumb to a few rounds to not get caught.
The virtual coins Asna earned were quite a lot in this gambling. Nearly one million virtual coins.
One thing that makes other gamblers like from Asna. After winning many virtual coins, Asna returned two-thirds of her opponent's coins as a form of solidarity.
The rest of the coins will be used to play again on another occasion.
Asna was not tempted by the wealth he could gain from gambling.
Gambling in the view of the Asna family is not a halal way to get sustenance. If only just looking for entertainment, as long as it is not too far away, it does not seem to matter. This is what Asna tried to implement.
Asna's second meeting at GWM this time did bring a deeper impression in the hearts of other members. The impact was also felt at school and it made Asna become more popular.
Now it is not only Iyan who treat Asna because almost always someone pays his snacks in the canteen.
This situation continued in Asna and Iyan in the following weeks.
Not forgetting the obligation as virtual fighters, they continued to train hard both in the human world and in the virtual world making good use of time.
Iyan experienced a significant increase in status when Asna again no change.
Though the more days, the time of the ceremony of the level increase is getting closer. Various possibilities Iyan proposed as an answer to the conditions experienced by Asna. Like an explosion of power or super-body possession.
To prove Asna has a super body, they fight with schoolmates and join the seniors attacking other schools for brawl.
If it was super, Asna should have been able to blow up her abilities back then. But in fact, only Asna's body exploded. Full of wounds.
Iyan was still eager to help Asna raise the status of the fight, at least a point up. While treating his own injuries, Iyan said, “Na, in the land of Yin and Yang warriors, there is a special method that helps one to open meridian points. Some sort of acupuncture technique. It could have been you all this time..”.
“You don't have to worry, brother.” Asna interrupted Iyan's conversation. He did not want Iyan to waste too much saliva just to convey something that was difficult to realize.
Asna then conveyed her unrest. “My current situation makes me think that being a virtual fighter is not just about increasing the status of the fight. I understand it's important. But there is more important.”
“What is it?” ask Iyan.
Asna replied, “I don't know exactly what it is. But clearly, the life of virtual fighters is like in an online multiplayer game. All players can level up and race to be the greatest. While I'm like a player who got a bug, a system error that causes I can not make improvements. Usually players who experience this report to the developer. Now I have to report to whom?”
“We will report it to the expert,” Iyan said.
Asna nodded in disagreement. “I don't want to be an object of research. Just chill. Although I cannot raise my status, at least I still remain a virtual warrior supporting other fighters. If you guys are players, then I am..”.
Waiting for the continuation of Asna's words, Iyan unconsciously held his breath. His eyes widened without blinking.
“I am an NPC. Characters in the game that help players enjoy the game..” continued Asna.
Iyan was stunned to hear Asna's statement. Claims are like there is a point.
Asna is completely abnormal.
There was no increase in battle status in Asna as other virtual fighters continued to rise.
-------------------------------------
Three months have passed. Study reports have been shared. Asna ranked third when Iyan reached 24 out of 25 students in class 10-A.
In that period, Asna's gambling skills at GWM SMA 25 were more recognized. He won more than he lost. More precisely intentionally losing so that other fighters do not suspect. When getting a lot of virtual coins, he again distributed them to other players.
So far he has been more concerned with relationships than wealth. This of course makes Asna, which incidentally is still a candidate member, favored by all members of GWM SMA 25 Samarinda. Except for Rode and his six men who always insult Asna.
Entering the gas school holiday, Asna status still did not move from the number 15 total points of battle status since getting a virtual knowledge inheritance. Iyan's target to raise Asna's battle status by 10 points each month is certainly a memory.
A week before the ceremony held GWM SMA 25 Samarinda, Asna still did not qualify for the lowest membership. Namely, a total of 16 battle status points to reach Little Circle. Though Asna only requires 1 point of increase.
While Iyan managed to reach a total of 169 battle points. As Mr. Haris said, Iyan does have the talent of being a Virtual Warrior. No, no wonder at the Rate Hike Ceremony and the Inauguration of New Members later, Iyan will be inaugurated as a First Shaf Member.
Mr. Haris and the majority of other GWM members generally accept Asna as a new member even though they still lack 1 battle status point. They already liked Asna very much with the humble attitude she showed.
During the meeting to prepare for the Ascension Ceremony and the Strengthening of New Members, Asna's name entered the agenda. Regarding Asna, Mr. Haris revealed, “Name rules, yes, we must uphold. But there is one case where the most votes are the voice of God. Father, anyway, just agree with your decision.”
While pointing at Asna who was also present at the meeting, Irvan raised his left hand and commented, “You heard, Na? We are both going to be new members. So cheer. Even if you have a low status, We won't all laugh at you.”
The atmosphere instantly became silent...
Irvan tried to clamp her lips to hold back the laughter.
Asna's low status was indeed very embarrassing.
In the end He could not help but laugh, “Buahhahaha.. sorry, Na! Slips! Hahaha.”.
The laughter of the other members was heard.
Asna did not mind this laugh. After all, Asna knew that his friends only laughed at the status of the fight, not his personality.
“Hihhihi.. Sorry, Na. I also can't help but laugh,” said Iyan. He then raised his left hand. “There's still a week. I will keep trying to help Asna raise the status of the fight. Hopefully one point!”
“Amiinnn... Hopefully! Let's just disperse! Irvan, lead prayer!” close Mr. Haris.
-------------------------------------
The past two months, there was one way that Iyan had continued to force in an attempt to help Asna raise the status of the fight. In addition to training hard, they routinely took the test of becoming members of the virtual warrior guild to obtain the legacy of battle status.
The virtual combat union is an organization formed by the Samarinda City Government in secret. The organization is responsible for monitoring, controlling and enforcing the activities of virtual beings in the human world or in the virtual world.
Countless virtual fighters had died in the line of duty. So that the virtual warrior union continues to recruit members with the lure of inheritance and high wages. Inheritance can be in the form of equipment, battle status or skills from members who have died.
Generally, the status of the fight. [Ordinary Stone] that the virtual warrior brought in would turn into a [Zakery Stone] after that warrior was killed.
[Zakery Stone]this was what Iyan needed to help Asna raise the status of the fight by just touching it.
Tens and even hundreds of battle status points were the numbers that were likely to be obtained from [Zakery Stone] and it was passable.
Especially if the legacy of the status of the fight is from a great warrior. The number 1000 is very likely.
No wonder [Zakery Stone] became a grabbing item. An instant way to raise the status of a fight that requires sacrifice. Many virtual warriors were tempted with the legacy of battle status but died before obtaining it.
So naturally, Asna and Iyan never passed the first test up to 33 times in a virtual fighter union in the Samarinda Ilir sub-district, where Iyan domiciled.
The union was named. - Serika Bird Kaliyangan-.
Five days before the GWM Level Rise Ceremony, Asna and Iyan continued to force themselves to take the union test. This time they did not graduate.
Iyan was eager to try his luck in another guild. It was just that his domicile was hampered at the moment.
According to the rules, virtual fighters can only register with the virtual warrior guild according to the domicile listed on the Family Card.
---------------------------------------
Too much practice and thinking made Asna unconscious in class. Iyan and some of his other friends took Asna to the UKS room. There was also Neti and Agustin.
The existence of Agustin makes Iyan sculpt. Mismanagement or speech can make him enter the hospital or at least end up in a burrow.
“Gus, how now? The lesson hour has already started..” asked Neti to Agustin. They were apparently members of the School Health Unit. “That's like this we should bury alive, Net!” Agustin gave an absurd suggestion.
Neti apparently agreed to Agustin's suggestion. “Ooh... We ask please Mr. Haris dig a hole for Asna, Yes.”.
Asna who apparently heard the conversation Neti and Agustin immediately got up from the bed. He pretended to be healthy. “Wow, I've never been this good! You guys see, right, I'm fine?”
Agustin showed his fist to Asna threateningly, “This fist of mine can send you to hell without being snorted, you know.”.
Feeling intimidated, Asna lay back down.
Body vibrates.
Already trembling, Asna even got a blow from Neti. “You don't think too much of it! Make bother others only..” amuk Neti.
Neti and Agustin then moved from the UKS. This destructive duo decided to go to class.
Not only Asna trembling, Iyan also turned out to be so.
After Agustin left, Iyan lay on the bed opposite Asna.
Long enough Asna was in the UKS room. Even after school. Currently there were only Iyan and Kuntilanak accompanying him.
Sayup-sayup heard the voices of people who were talking.
“If it's true they're in the UKS, I'll beat him up! Again and again!”
“Bos, indeed unforgiving.”
“But don't die boss.”
“Hah! You think I'm stupid.”
The doors of the UKS were forcibly opened from the outside to create a deafening sound. Apparently a group of students broke into the UKS without greeting.
Asna knows seven students who are standing at the mouth of the door of the UKS at this time. Especially their boss. Her...
- - Code - Boss Genk School. Again and again…
