Chapter 3 - How to Lie Low

"W-wait a minute! What are you doing? Fuck, my body still hurt! Hey, who is groping my little brother! Hands off, are you maniac?"

As soon as he walks into the Main Hall, 5 to 10 people already tie him up. He was confused as what grave crime he has committed. Did i impregnate your sister? Or did i sleep with your mother?

"Arief! You are sure brazen coming here! Tell me, how are you going to solve this matter?" An Middle aged man suddenly reprimand him. He is in his forties, around 170 cm height, and plump body. On his chest donned a 1 star bronze emblem with word "Music" in it. Arief was sure that he never see something like it in his previous world. But he quickly shook his head because he still have to solve the problem in hand.

"Village Head, please untie him. No matter what, we should solve this problem without violence." Evi step forward and beg the man.

"Alright, i gave you 10 minutes to solve the problem at hand! If you fail to solve it... Hmph! don't bother step out of this Hall today!" Clearly, the Village Head doesn't intended to let Arief go by making his condition hard.

"Dad, what happened? What did i do to deserve such beating? Don't tell me i really impregnate his daughter?" Arief hurriedly asked his father in hushed voice.

"Impregnate your head! You always making trouble everyday and still have cheek to joke with me? Tell me, are your brain really fried because of the fight 2 days ago?!" Reprimand Heri.

Heri Setiawan, a middle aged man with a handsome face in his fifties, around 180cm height and sharp eyes. He is Arief's father. But just like his mom, he really perplexed to knew that both of them have such a handsome and beautiful face, more than he remember in his last life.

"Dad, there is no time to talk about that. You can reprimand me after we return home. Can you help me untie me first? I will run away as fast as possible to lie low."

Arief thought that after he ran away and study all things about this new world, he will return and kicking everybody ass with his new System help. But unfortunately, it is not as simple as he thought.

"Run away your head! Didn't you know that Village Head Narto is 1 Star Musician? Even though Musician is lower occupation, it is still better than me an Apprentice!" Heri didn't know why his son asking such stupid question many times.

With a frown, Arief asked "1 Star Mu... Ah right, i am sorry dad. I will think a solution then." He knew that if he asked anymore question, his dad would be suspicious about him.

Better safe than sorry he thought. I will search on the Internet about it as soon as i get out of here.

By his side, his mom suddenly said "Arief, i don't know if you already knew this matter or not, but two days ago when you fought with the Village Head son, you threw away a package for Governor. It is a Music Scoreboard for Governor birthday tomorrow. The Village head hope that if he plays the scoreboard tomorrow at the Governor birthday, the Governor will speak about good things to Musician Guild."

So that old man wants to get into the good book of Governor. No wonder he really mad to me. But he sure that this world is different from his previous world. Never he heard about Musician Guild in his previous life.

Suddenly, he heard a notification from the System.

Ding!

"A Sub-Quest appeared. Host, please receive it or reject it."

[Sub Quest]

Resolve Village Head Issues

Rewards :

10 Privilege Points

1 Star Bronze Music Book

As soon as the notification rang, his eyes suddenly lit up. Wait, why should i resolve Village Head Issues? Why didn't it give quest to resolve my issues or my family issues? In my vast experience about system in the Novel he read, he knew that the system usually shameless, proud, or cheap. Never crossed in his mind that there would be a upright system that giving quest to resolve someone problem.

Never mind, he unhesitatingly said in his mind "Accept!".

Weng! Suddenly a new page of the status appears in his mind.

Ding! "Host congratulations for accepting your first Sub-Quest. Host is rewarded with 1 [Memory Card]"

What? Memory Card? Damn, he jump in joy inside. It is like what i think it is? An item to search my past memories? Wasting no time, he reach his pocket and found a card.

[Memory Card]

An item to search of memory of Ancient Figure for the particular memory.

Ancient Figure? What? It's not searching about my past memories, but an Ancient Figure? Surely this system is different from another System he knew.

"System, what does it mean of Ancient Figure?"

"Host, Ancient Figure means that a Historical Figure in your previous world, not in this world."

Hmm.. It's pretty good item alright. I should resolve this matter in the hand first. He then tore the card and as soon as he torn the card, a list of names suddenly appears in his mind.

Hm.. So the Ancient Figure is a Figure that appears in History Book of my previous life. It will not list a nobody without a mark in History like his grandfather. Right, i should find a musician figure in his previous life that have Birthday Song. But... He didn't knew any figure that write a good Birthday Song! Dammit. I should thought over it first before tearing the card down.

Gritting his teeth, he choose a random figure in the list and a figure popped out in his mind.

The figure singing a 'Happy Birthday to You' song from his previous life. Fuck, i waste my good item! Never crossed his mind that his luck is really bad to select a song that overplayed in his previous life.

Then the song finished and a scoreboard imprinted in his mind.

I'm dead. I'm really dead. There is no way the elder would accept this overplayed song that 3-years-old brat can sing.
