Chapter 5 - See the World Differently

After the ghost disappeared, I realized there was something strange about me. where I began to realize that I was now able to communicate with the ghost, then I remembered what happened to me when I was little. I remember that I have had the unique ability of communicating with astral beings since childhood, as my late mother, who died 5 years ago, once said.

hit by a rash of worry, I immediately rushed to the hut to check on Felix's condition and leave clues that I should have just a little more left to get.

"I feel very worried about Felix's condition, I have to go back now!"

On the other hand, Angga, who is now under a big tree together with other members to take shelter from the heavy rain, is trying to ensure that no more of his members run away from the group, continuing to try to convince them that the words he conveyed are the truth.

"I want to ask one thing of all of you here, this is also to make sure whether you obey my rules or not?"

"I want to ask, do any of you here want to stay here with me or go like them and never get out of this forest."

Those who heard it didn't want to take risks like Andy and Felix did, so they all agreed to stay under the big tree with Angga and follow all his instructions.

Angga, who knew this, then felt happy with their trust in him. Then Angga planned something to get revenge on Andy at that time, by using his colleagues.

Angga showed a slight smile to his colleagues.

"If that's the case, that's good. it means you all still have common sense to think."

"...As a form of trust that all of you here have in me, are you willing to help me find Felix after the rain stops?"

This raises questions for Krishna about Angga's decision. He thinks that Felix has betrayed him, which makes him very disappointed, but why does Angga still want to look for him.

"Why do you still want Felix, even though he clearly rejected your invitation?"

Angga immediately confirmed what he had said to Krishna who doubted him.

"It's true that Felix rejected my invitation earlier, but doesn't that mean he rejected it of his own free will?"

"What do you actually mean by that?"

"What I mean is that Felix is ​​currently under the influence of magic."

All the group members who heard it were a little distrustful of Angga words, so they tried to confirm what he said by asking more clearly about what Angga meant.

"What do you mean? Are you kidding? Who could do something like that?"

"Shouldn't you all be able to guess who the perpetrator is?"

"Who is it, try to explain it to us?"

Krisna was the only person in the group who insisted on really wanting to know who Angga was referring to.

"Of course that person was Andy, from the start he deliberately stayed away from me so he could make his plan work well."

There are those who believe the explanation said by Angga and there are also those who don't believe it, one of the people who believes Angga words is Agung. This could not be separated from feelings of great fear, because Angga might expel him from his group, if he opposed Angga's words.

"We should all trust whatever our group leader says, since Angga was the one who led this camping trip from the start."

Angga smiled happily because he was happy with Agung trust and loyalty towards him.

"I feel happy that you trust me so much, great, I am also very happy to have a friend like you."

On the other hand, Krishna doubted Angga's words, if Andy had done something like that and chose to put his suspicions deep in order to stay with his friends.

rushed to the old house, but when I arrived half way I began to realize that I was only going around in one direction.

It seems like this is the road I've just crossed, but why am I still here even though I think I've walked far enough?

I tried to find twigs to mark the trees I had passed and when I was done, I tried to walk and repeat it once again. After repeating it again, the road I took was still the same as the one I had passed before.

What is this, isn't this the road I just walked? I realized there was something strange about this forest, I didn't know the origin or name of this forest at all. Only Angga has known a lot about the secrets of this forest and he seems to have kept it a secret from his friends, including myself.

I have to make the best possible use of previously known abilities, otherwise I could be trapped in this place forever.

I tried to close my eyes and tried to concentrate so that the boundaries of the unseen world and the real world within me could open.

After waiting for a few minutes I finally opened my eyes and apparently I succeeded in doing so, suddenly my vision was filled with white light and I could see the unseen world that ordinary people could not see. Right in front of me there was a very tall creature around a banyan tree which was right next to the creature.

The creature had bright red eyes and seemed to be looking at me with a very sharp gaze from the height of its body. Even when compared to the big tree next to him, his posture far exceeds that tree.

I started to suspect that this creature was the cause of me spinning around in this place. I tried to keep my distance from this creature because its attitude was increasingly strange towards me.

I slowly stepped back to get away from the large creature.

I felt confused about where else to go because every time I walked in any direction, I always came back to this place. "I have to find out as soon as possible the cause of me spinning around in the same place like this?"
