Alfi feels hurts on his body. His head feels painful after getting whacked by Delu-Delu.
“Dang, what’s his problem anyway? Whacking my head out of the blue like that.” Alfi strokes his heavy head.
He examines his surrounding. The dim room lit by candle hung on every side of that stone wall. Alfi wants to explore more, yet he finds himself trapped in a prison. He sesses the iron bars in front of him awkwardly. He feels like in a prison of a dungeon on a retro RPG game.
“Weird, I have never raped a little girl. How come I end up in a prison?” Alfi wonders.
“Alfi!”
Alfi hears Megumi’s voice from his bracelet.
“Megumi!” Alfi exclaims.
She comes out from his bracelet.
“Megumi, thank goodness yo-”
Megumi slaps him out of the blue. He sees her swollen eyes with tears keep coming from her eyes.
“Megumi, I-”

“The supernatural palace? What do you mean?”Alfi asked.“Please allow me to explain it to you, my lord.”The Jailangkung said.”In 2015 - 2016, the mount Bromo activity had got more intense as Ki Bromo, the ruler of mountain Bromo, built a supernatural palace. He built this palace so the wandering spirits can have a place to stay in peace.”It explained.“Wandering spirits, eh? So such things do exist, eh?”Alfi said.”Why did he build such a place for such a reason?”He asked.“Wandering spirits are the ones passed away leaving some undone business in the world. If they don’t get it done, they will stay in this world as spirits for good. They will never be able to go to the afterlife in peace.”The Jailangkung explained.“Which means, for instance, if you save your money for Comiket, and die on the day before the occasion, you&rsqu
Nothing is interesting about that dim chamber. It’s just a massive chamber with giant reflecting-blue-light-windows becoming the lamp of the chamber. There’s a dark red big chair at the end of the room with red carpet spread in front of it to that massive golden door. There’s an old man wearing a black cap, white tank top, and black cotton pants sitting on the chair watching a set of white lights forming a screen before him. It shows Alfi and the others are ascending to the 3rd floor.“The Alfa, eh? No wonder he was able to defeat Ebu Gogo and Ahol that easily, but that won’t be that easy on the 3rd floor. Surprise me, Your Highness Alfa.”He lights a cigarette and starts to smoke.
Warak Ngendog is running on that tough terrain. That rocky uphill is actually not a problem for it. Not to mention there are five blasphemous figures riding it.“4th Floor: Floor of Mount. A steep mountain. The stair to the next floor is on the summit.”Jeje explained.“Are you alright?”Alfi asked.“I am. Please don’t be so formal to me. Just call meßenlong.”Warak Ngendog said.“Senlong?!”“ßenlong.”“What a weeb.”Alfi feels uneasy.“Hey, a guardian or a protector may follow trends, right?”ßenlong said.“You got a point there.”Alfi draws Sketor and puts them on.“Alfi?”ßenlongcalls him.Alfi gets off and slides besideßenlong.“Why?”ßenlong asked.“I’m getting bored
Dark.Humid.Silent.Those words are matched to describe this place. Puddling land, falling leaves, funny smell, this dense swamp is slowing them. Not to mention the slippery and muddy ground that makesßenlong have to walk really slowly.ßenlong is able to fly, but he feels he is forbidden to fly on this floor. Alfi did ask it why, yetßenlong didn’t want to answer him. It’s because even I don’t know why I don’t haveßenlong fly away so they can make it real quick.“5th Floor: Floor of Grim. A dense swamp that full of mysteries.”Jeje explained.“Mysteries? What do you mean?”Alfi asked.“I dunno either... Yet, Can’t you feel anything weird?”Jeje asked.Alfi channels his Iru from his body to every direction to check his surrounding, yet suddenly his Iru returns to his body.“What the hell? Megumi,
ßenlong keeps ascending those soaring stairs. The stairs look higher than ever. Alfi sees blue light reflected from the window beside him.“Just wondering. What is that blue light thing anyway?”Alfi asked.“It’s called Luna. You can say that it’s the power source for us, the ghosts.”Jeje explained.“Luna? Did you mean Mana?”“Mana is the magical force we possess. Just like the thing you call Iru.”“Then? Does Luna enroll as the light source of this Supernatural Realm only?”“Luna is the most powerful magical force that gods bestowed upon us and it does give us some significant impact.”“And, what is it?”“Luna is the source of our power. Luna's existence is the reason why we are able to unleash our power.”“Oh, so as long as you are under its reach, you are able to use your power, right?&rdq
The scarlet sky can be seen clearly here. This tough terrain does exhaust them. The seventh floor sure is. steep paths and the heated atmosphere burden all of them. Alfi has tried to use the magic curtain to chill them down, yet it didn’t work. The heated atmosphere on this floor is really unbelievable. Not to mention the sulfurs and volcanic ashes that come unexpectedly torment their smelling and visual sense.Alfi has given each of them a mask from the shreds of the magic curtain to prevent them inhale sulfurs or volcanic ashes. It does not chill them down, but at least it can keep them stand on their feet. Not to mentionßenlong has to keep walking while carrying all of them on his back. Those blasphemous friends.“The seventh floor: Kerinci Floor. A steep active volcano full of sulfurs and volcanic ashes.”Jeje explained.“ßenlong, I guess we need to take a break. You look so pale.”Alfi said.&
You can see a big table with five creatures taking a seat around it in that grand room. A gentle classic symphony plays relaxing their minds.“Ah. There’s no better place to relax than this place.”Alfi said.“I’m impressed, Alfi. You are even able to build a 5-star hotel in a jiffy. I wonder what you can do with the power you possess.”Jeje said.“Same here,”Buriko added.“Me too,”Cocong added.“Tell us, Alfi.”Aoi who is crawling on the shred of flying magic curtain said.“You don’t mind, do you?”ßenlong looks curious too.Alfi seems to hesitate to tell them, as however, Doki-Doki is an absurd power. But, seeing their faces makes him unable to refuse to tell them. Explaining what Doki-Doki is may kill time till Megumi brings them the dishes.“All right, I’ll tell you,”Alfi sa
They are just done having their meals and they are ready to continue their journey. Alfi looks in a good shape already that he can manipulate the temperature around them by creating silver Iru orbs that float around them. Those orbs are like the ice that chills down the temperature around it.“Good grief you told us the story,ßenlong. Listening to it makes me wonder about what I can do with my Iru. Thank you.”Alfi said.“Don’t mention it.”ßenlong replied while running to the stair to the eighth floor.“Well, I am curious, to be honest. Actually, I planned to create a UFO for us to ride, but why are you so persistent to give us a ride?”Alfi asked.“It’s for my personal training program.”ßenlong replied.“But I don’t want you-”“Enough already. I don’t want to hear that from you. I”m fine, okay? And yo
