Chapter 80 - Silence

( Int the 101th Timeline)

" Grandpa .... "

" Yes Carla ... " Rangga says to his granddaughter.

" I feel like having a bad dream .... " Carla says as she sleeps in her grandfather's lap as she used to do when she was a child at the time.

As Carla says that, she tells Rangga at that time that she dreams of being stabbed by a Divine Arrow and she also sees Rangga beside her, crying for her as she remembers him being engulfed by light and seeing another being that she thinks has the same face as Rangga while she realizes that the being that looks like him is crying for her.

Not just that, she then explains that she also had another dream of her being stabbed by a Divine Weapon and seeing a silhouette of the Diviners she knows looking at her so menacingly.

" Grandpa .... I'm confused .... " she says to Rangga.

" I know that dreams aren't supposed to be real but .... "

" These dreams I had lately ... "

" It felt so real ...., so detailed .... "

" As the dreams looked like some kind of a .... 'past memory' ... "

" A memory of an event of long past .... " Carla says to Rangga at the time while Rangga then dismisses the thought and tells that it is only her sheer imagination as he tends her ear like usual.

" Ouch .... granddad. ....!!!! "

" Do it nicely, please !!!!! "

" Okay okay geeezzz ..... my dear beautiful spoiled granddaughter ... " Rangga says as he knocks on his granddaughter's head.

" Even though ya are a Divine Hero, ya childish attitude towards me is still the same huh??? " Rangga asks which makes Carla blush as the question makes her feel embarrassed.

" Granddad !!! " Carla shouts.

" Stop flirting me ...!!!! "

" If you want to flirt, you should instead do that to grandma !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "

" Your wife that you always hurt by your childish actions !!!!! " Carla roasts Rangga at the time which startles Rangga.

" Oh yeah ... I'm sorry .... " he says as he gulps while telling Carla that everything is fine now between them as he tells Carla that he is proud that her magic is gradually increasing further as he brags that Carla may be on par with the Wind God, Zephyr which shock Carla as she tells him to be silent and rethink his words while suddenly.

STAB

A giant Wind Arrow stabs both of them, an arrow that both Rangga and Carla didn't know where it came from as they immediately realize the caster of this arrow.

" Grandad ...." Carla says as from above, their house roof is being holed as the god of wind prepares his arrow to shoot at both of them.

" God of Wind, Zephyr ...!!!! " both of them say as the god of Wind shoots the final arrow.

" I can hear you, you know .... "

" It seems that this is the time where your granddaughter should die, isn't it? " he says as he shoots it to the two.

.....

( Back to the present.)

( The Current Timeline.)

" GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH !!!!!! " Rangga screams in panic as he remembers that very memory while his left eyes glows since the Twelve Eyes of Time gives him Rangga 101's memories.

As Rangga wakes up, he sees that Rangga 101 his previous self from the 101st Timeline, the owner of the memory is looking at him as he then teases.

" Bad dreams huh !!!???? " Rangga 101 says to him as he tells him that thanks for him being reorganized by the System before the other Ranggas, he can now enter the Main System Space to meet with him as he tells Rangga everything that Rangga 12's said as he also shows Rangga some quests to do for today.

< New Quest (!) >

< 10.000km marathon (20 times) >

< Tricep training (4 hours) >

< Agility training (4 hours) >

.....

" S**t," Rangga says since it is Saturday while Rangga tells 101 how annoying they've become after the Shadow Dungeon Event which Rangga then had to awaken from his bed inside the System's Space as he does the training inside it since the time inside the System Space is faster than the real world which gives him an advantage since he can also set the flow of time inside it.

.....

......

...........

............

.................

< Quest Completed >

< Congratulations, you received a reward ... >

< Reward: >

< Skill Card >

< This Card, is a card that gives the user a new unlockable set of skills which the user can choose only one. >

" A Skill Card ...? " Rangga says as he was given three options he then with his instincts, chooses the right card which turns out to be a trash skill set which is.

< Skill Set: Detective Set >

< Congratulations you unlocked the Detective Skill Sets >

< Main Skill: Intuition (Active) >

< This skill increases the user's intuition and will be activated if the user thinks over anything that is suspicious. >

< Main Skill: Silence (Active) >

< Increase the user's silence while thinking as this skill increases the user's secrecy, making the others unaware on what the user is thinking >

< Main Skill: Social Awareness (Passive) >

< This skill increases the user's awareness of others. >

< Main Skill: Initiative (Passive) >

< This skill increases the user's initiative to do things. >

When Rangga sees that, he then went angry as he then asks the System if he can refund it with the Skill Card Keys that he had collected before this feature even applied to him since he's on Level 77 (This feature had already been applied on Level 75, where this feature gives Rangga a greater chance to get more new and more powerful sets of skills).

As Rangga asks that, 101 then knocks him and tells him not to waste his Skill Card Keys and tells Rangga to use these acquired skills before he can clearly decides whether the skill is really useless or not.

" Ya ungrateful brat .... "

" Look at these Skills ... " Rangga 101 says as he tells Rangga that these skills are very useful for every Detective like himself as he tells that with these skills Rangga could be more aware of his surroundings while commenting on what has Rangga done in recent weeks.

" Ya are still young Rangga ... "

" I do believe that ya are smart, but sadly that intellect is nothing without the existence of intuition or anything that will mentally help ya solve things. " 101 says as he tells that ever since Last Week, Rangga had only done things like Raiding the Dungeon, battling some random monster to acquire some random useless items and etc etc etc as 101 roasts him for hours inside the System Space.

" Let me tell ya this Rangga !!!!! "

" I know that grinding up yar' level is important, especially increasing some of your combat and magic skills .... "

" But still ya need to increase some skills that increase your mentality and knowledge. " 101 says, telling Rangga that he is too overconfident of his current knowledge and potential which he sees him for occasionally bragging it in the academy and in battle which he deems to be so foolish as it will make him more enemies than friends.

Hearing that, Rangga then remember the dream he had earlier and asks 101 if he's talking this since he had already seen 101's memory which 101 then nods as he tells Rangga that the God of Wind, Zephyr had the ability to hear every voice in the wind which makes him able to hear everything in the world at that time as that ability is why Zephyr is able to hear Rangga 101's comments to Carla about her being more powerful than him.

And on top of that, Rangga 101 reminds Rangga about his constant murmuring while thinking about something as he tells him that if Zephyr is still on the earth's pantheon then he would likely be arrowed by him in an instant if not for Rangga 101 to quickly transport him to the System Space while dreaming.

" I see ... " Rangga understood.

" So where is the god of Wind now? " Rangga asks 101 as he remembers that there is no god named Zephyr in the ranks of Valhalla.

" I thought you said that he is one of the earth's gods, isn't he? " Rangga asks him again which 101 then stares at him and says.

" In this Timeline ... "

" The God of Wind remove himself with some others from the earth's pantheons as they created their own pantheon in some other place. " Rangga 101 says as he then leaves Rangga with many questions in his head.

"( Some other ... place.... )" Rangga wonders what 101 means.
