"Rizal yes, Rizal... It's useless, I don't remember," I said, looking at Rifai with an expressionless face. "Who is Rizal? Is he human? Or... animals?"
"Don't pretend you don't know him, you idiot!" Rifai said.
"Hehehe. Then, why are you talking about it all of a sudden?"
"Has your girlfriend told you this?"
"My girlfriend?"
"Your boss I mean."
"Ah, she... we're not dating yet," I said in a low voice, then said, "She hasn't discussed this with me."
"Do you know who was appointed the Vice Leader of your guild, after Bagas left him? Rizal was the one who was appointed as the Vice Leader, not the Tiara."
I was shocked to learn this. "R-Rizal? Are you sure? Isn't he currently in jail? Why is it suddenly like this?"
Rifai puffed out cigarette smoke from his mouth, then said, "I also just found out about this, after some people always talked about Rizal's name who was the Vice Leader of the Supernova Guild. I find out about him, and get information that it turns out that Rizal is the same Rizal, who is in the same year as us."
"..." I paused with my heart still in shock.
My mind continues to spin to think about it. He was sentenced to life in prison for premeditated murder and drug abuse, but why did he get out of prison? My head is really dizzy thinking about this.
"I-If that's really he, w-why did h-he get out of jail?" I asked, nervous.
"I also don't know how he got out of prison, but what is clear is that he is. I've passed him in the game and saw that face."
"If this is the case, how about this? He's a killer, killer. Why can he be free from prison?"
"I'm also looking for information about his account. You know, where server he plays?"
"Not." I shook my head.
"On Server 1, just like us."
"What?" My heart was getting shocked hearing his words.
When I was playing EOA game, Server 1 and Server 2 games were full, no new players could enter, they had to go to Server 3 if they wanted to play. But strangely, why could Rizal be there? There was no Rizal's nickname on Server 1, not even on Server 0, when I was still playing EOA games.
"W-Why? Why was he there? Isn't he a veteran player?"
"Ah, I don't know that either. But, I have this bad feeling."
I swallowed my saliva. "What is that?"
I am not afraid of my condition or Rifai's future condition because of Rizal's presence. What I'm afraid of is the safety of those on Server 1 and Server 0. Plus, he serves as a Vice Leader in the Supernova Guild. This is what makes me feel scared by his presence.
"Just like you, there might be victims who lost their accounts because they were hacked."
I lifted the cigarette with trembling hands, then put it in my mouth without sucking on it and said, "I-If this li-like..."
"Hey, calm down! I know you must be thinking about your friends, right?"
"Yes." I put my cigarette in the ashtray.
"I don't know where he will go, whether his actions are dangerous or not. So, for the time being, you just focus on yourself first!"
"O-Okay."
"Besides, if it's dangerous, I'll kill him."
"No, you don't have to go that far, Rifai. You don't go back to acting like you used to, it's not good for you and me either. So, better not!"
"Tch..."
"Why are you grumbling like that?!" I calmed down a little thanks to Rifai. Fortunately, I have a friend like him who can help me in several ways. I'm grateful to be friends with him. I asked, "So, do you have any other information about him?"
"I have one more."
"What is that?"
"This is not information, but just my suspicions."
"Suspicious? Who do you suspect?"
"Evan. I suspect him."
After Rifai said that, suddenly the contents of my head immediately thought.
I thought that what happened in the past 2 years, all started with him. He took over my account and acted to destroy the fun of my playing partners, Tiara, Bagas, Kahfi, Elvina, Joko, and Helena. He's the source of the problems I've had during these 2 years.
"I also think that way. He took my account, then ruined everything."
"Yes, he did that too, but that's not what I meant."
"Hmm?"
"What I mean, he was the one who freed Rizal from prison and made him play the game."
"What do you mean?"
"He seems like he's been planning this since your account was hacked by him. First of all, he crushed those closest to you and made them separate from each other. Second, he acted and disguised himself as you to find strong players for the tournament. Third... when your friends have separated according to his wishes, he enters Rizal into the Supernova Guild and makes him the Vice Leader."
When Rifai spoke, I could only think why Rifai could be this genius, even though that was not his character. No, this is the character, which is STALKER.
You know, when I became friends with him again, he had changed a lot, often seen stalking someone without me knowing his purpose, even watching television often. Even so, his emotional nature never changed one bit.
"Hey, why are you looking at me like that. Did you hear?!" Rifai saw me who was looking at him with an expressionless gaze.
"Yeah, haha. I also think that way." I said it carefully so as not to be suspected. "So, Evan-hah..."
"Yes, he's the one I suspect about all of this. Actually, what is he up to?! Neither the father nor the son always annoyed me. And you..." Rifai looked at me with sharp eyes.
"I?"
"You're the one who made this problem happen. You have to take responsibility for all of this."
After Rifai said that in an annoyed tone, I put my smartphone to my ear.
"All right, alright, alright, you didn't create this problem. I beg you not to call that person."
"Smart kids."
When I put my smartphone on the floor, Rifai opened his mouth.
"So, what are you going to do about this matter?"
"First of all, I ask you a help."
"Ask for help? What for?"
"I want you to keep them safe! If you can't, I'll be mad at you," I said, filled with menacing tones.
"Ah, that yes. Okay. So, what else?"
"Wait for me there, don't act casually, and don't kill between players!"
"If that..."
"Follow my words!" I put my smartphone to my ear.
"Alright, alright, alright, I'll obey."
"And the third..." I smiled and said, "Ask Bagas to create a new guild, for me to welcome me later on Server 0." I turned my face sharp and said, "And you... come join the guild!"
"Uh... Lazy."
"For the time being, let my identity be unknown, except for you and Tiara. If I'm there, I'll put them together again. Wait for me! Hahaha."
"Why are you laughing, you bastard? You're teasing me, aren't you?!"
"No, I feel that I am the luckiest person in this world, to have great people like you and them."
BAAM! Rifai suddenly hit me hard.
"Ouch."
"Damn, you teased me."
I stood up and hit him.
BAAM!
"You're taking it wrong, you idiot!"
"Oh."
BAAM! In the end, we got into a fight. And fortunately, we are not about that computer that is still downloading ENTER OF ADVENTURE game data.
And after a while, suddenly Dinda entered my boarding room.
"Aniki, Tiara nee-chan is looking for you and wants to go home, she said."
"Hmm?"
