Little Secret

Bagas slightly squinted at the threat from the young man who was still sitting relaxed and enjoying his meal.

Only this time did he feel that someone he had just met was threatening and even approaching orders.

"I'm older than you Boy, don't like to threaten other people, it's rude!" I don't accept it. Kaja lightly touched Bagas' shoulder, a sign to stop the unnecessary debate. Bagas was silent again and snorted softly.

"It's up to you, I only give you the best advice." The youth casually replied as he took a sip of his drink.

Kaja was silent for a moment, he noticed that the young man who was the same age as he looked handsome. However, Kaja saw that there was a deep look in the young man's eyes, his eyes were sharp and focused, "If I may know, what is your name?"

The young man turned to Kaja, "My name is Jiro."

Kaja smiled and introduced his partner, Bagas as well.

Jiro took a last sip of his drinking water and hurried to leave. Before leaving, Jiro called the waiter and paid more money, he treated Bagas and Kaja. He paid for both of them. Kaja also said thank you, one day if we meet again, Kaja will help him if needed. And, Jiro smiled at him.

Jiro said goodbye, going first. He took a step and before continuing his steps after leaving them about 5 steps, he turned around for a moment.

"I warn you once again, don't interfere with Kalueng. Save your lives," Jiro immediately walked away without looking back.

"You are, really huh ..." Bagas didn't seem to accept it and was about to get up, but Kaja grabbed his arm.

"Alright, sit down. We have to eat now, right?" Kaja knew Bagas was temperamental, but basically, he was very kind and considerate.

"Okay. I'm hungry too."

They both started to eat their food, they also started praying before eating. It became Kaja's habit, just as his grandfather had taught him.

A group of people entered the restaurant. They are also Aflif's group. It seemed they were tired or hungry so they stopped by the restaurant and the inn. The five of them saw the place was full, but also saw that there were still loose stools. The place where Kaja and Bagas were eating quietly.

One of the men saw the two of them and approached, trying to remember the face of the young man who was eating.

"Aren't you Kaja Boy," The old man tried to recognize Kaja's face?

Kaja stopped eating and looked at the old man, "Grandpa Kamir isn't it?"

And, the old man nodded with a smile.

Kaja immediately stood up and greeted the five members of Aflif Lentera. They had met before when Kaja was alone. Kaja invited them to join, they thanked them and ordered food, and sat with Kaja and Bagas. They had a lively chat and introduced themselves to each other.

"It's been a long time since that meeting Kaja, you just grew taller," Sanu, the Lantern Leader smiled at Kaja. Kaja smiled back, "Yes Uncle." Each of them was engrossed in warm chat, food and drink orders came. They start with drinking water first.

Kaja is next door to Grandpa Kamir.

"It seems, you have experienced a lot of Kaja's experience," Grandpa Kamir has long been in the martial world, he feels Kaja's aura is condensing and there is also a change in Kaja that Grandpa Kamir feels.

"I still need a lot of experience Grandpa," replied Kaja politely.

Grandpa Kamir smiled. He had felt since the first time he met Kaja more than a year ago, he felt that the young man had high abilities and would have a bright future in future.

"Kaja," Grandpa Kamir looked at Kaja for a moment, the others were busy with their chats including Bagas who started hearing stories from Sanu and Bara about the benefits of being an official member of AFLIF.

Kaja looked at the old man next to him, "What's wrong Grandpa?"

"Who taught you martial arts?" Grandpa Kamir was curious about Kaja, he felt Kaja's unique energy when he felt it up close. Kamir felt that the person who taught Kaja was a great person. Because, at Kaja's age now, he already has quite a lot of energy.

Kaja answered without curiosity, "I was taught by my grandfather, his name is Noran."

"Noran?" Grandpa Kamir frowned, it seemed that the name had never been known to him even though he had known many great people from Aflif or not, people with great abilities, at least Grandpa Kamir knew him because he had been in Aflif for a long time and also knew many people.

"But…" Kaja tried to remember something, "I've heard that my Grandpa has another name. I remember his name was Bunt…"

Wuusshh!

Very thin energy suddenly enveloped Kaja, Kaja was surprised. That thin energy suddenly burst out from Grandpa Kamir. From the stick, he had been holding. Kaja noticed something strange, the thin energy seemed invisible, the energy suddenly enveloped him and Grandpa Kamir, just the two of them. Kaja also looked at Grandpa Kamir. There, Grandpa Kamir seemed very surprised and his eyes looked round. There were twilight-shaped lines on his face, especially around his eyes.

"Kaja…, I closed our conversation. Only the two of us can hear each other."

Sure enough, the Aflif Lentera members didn't seem to have heard Kaja and Grandpa Kamir's conversation, they were next to each other and seemed to only speak quietly.

"Be careful when you say your Grandpa's name," Grandpa Kamir turned his face back to the front after previously looking at Kaja. Kaja was even more curious. What's the secret about his Grandpa's true origins, it's all a mystery. Actually who was Grandpa Noran had been taking care of him since he was little and taught him many things.

"Bunto…, he is the most wanted fugitive in the whole world!" Grandpa Kamir's words were firm and slow. His magical energy made their conversation only audible to them.

Kaja widened his eyes. It's as if you don't believe it and you don't want to believe it. His grandfather, Noran, who was with him all the time during his time in Motherland Village, was the most wanted person in the whole world. What does all this mean? There was a big secret about what happened to him and Grandpa Noran.

Kaja shook his head, Grandpa Kamir understood that Kaja didn't know anything about it, it could be seen from Kaja's expression.

"Never mention your grandfather's name to anyone again. If they know that you are someone close to them. You will definitely be wanted by everyone, even the people from Black Secret."

Kaja shook his head, even more, disbelieving and unable to analyze anymore. His grandfather, Black Secret, is he a fugitive too?

Besides, why did Grandpa Kamir tell him, if there really was an advantage in detaining and interrogating him? Why did Grandpa Kamir warn him, it means Grandpa Kamir did it for Kaja's good in the future.

"Kaja," Grandpa Kamir gently held Kaja's shoulder, "I'm a friend of your Grandpa, we had a mission in the past during the big battle a few years ago. I know about your Grandpa, remember one thing. Your grandfather was a good person, but he was slandered because there was a secret he kept very close, so he had to hide from many people."

I understand now. So, Kaja must be able to unravel his grandfather's mystery. Kaja must meet her Grandpa and be able to help him in the future. In essence, he had to get stronger and stronger.

Grandpa Kamir smiled at Kaja and removed his hand from Kaja's shoulder, "You have to become stronger in order to survive and protect your Grandpa one day Kaja."

Kaja now understood, nodding confidently at Grandpa Kamir, "Thank you Grandpa Kamir." Simultaneously, the thin energy surrounding the two of them was pulled back by Grandpa Kamir. Both of them understood to end the one-on-one conversation. And, Kaja also understands what to do next.

Boommm! Booooommm! Duaarrrr!

From the south end of the bustling restaurant, there was a loud sound, a sign that something had happened.
