Carve To The Last Fight

funeral ceremony in a metaverse conversation

"Hmm... well, Wasto, I also don't understand why the company that employs it takes a unilateral policy by deactivating my status for an undetermined time" Satriya explained her disappointment.

"There is a possibility if this is related to the incident that you experienced Satriya, a statement that the company is not related and keeps their name in the public eye," Wasto said a very rational statement, but after that, he said something he almost forgot.

"Oh yes Satriya, just now a girl came and waited for you" with a little smile this man knew that Satriya had understood who he meant.

"Why didn't the girl just contact me?' Oh, yes Wasto, tomorrow I will attend someone's funeral do you want to accompany me?" Satriya tries to divert the conversation.

"I'm sorry it seems I can't and Satriya ..., maybe the purpose of the girl's arrival is like your invitation just now, isn't all of this related?" Wasto tried to give a little glance and asked Satriya to contact the girl.

The convoy of vehicles, one of which is black, which is usually owned by government institutions and several health departments, seems to have started to enter the area of ​​the public cemetery complex, which is still located in the buffer zone of the capital.

A ceremony was also prepared from the funeral parlor while several people began to arrive one by one to fill the chairs that had been provided by the funeral committee.

Among the many who came, it was also seen the presence of Gee, who arrived earlier. Together with Satriya, who was not far from the row of chairs, he attended to give condolences as well as pay tribute to someone who had died.

“Psssst Gee...!” Satriya tries to whisper something to the girl who is still standing beside her.

"What's wrong Satriya?" the girl put her ear closer, in this mourning atmosphere it was only natural that they seemed to be trying to maintain an attitude.

"Do you see and feel anything different from the situation we are in right now?" Satriya reiterates something that now crossed her mind.

"I've also felt the same way as you just said, but it's better if we talk about it later," Gee responded to the question and asked the man beside him to continue following the entire ceremonial series that seemed to be starting soon.

All eyes that were present at the funeral seemed to be directed to a black vehicle carrying the coffin which had just arrived and stopped right on a special lane that had been prepared, a moment later several funeral attendants opened the trunk door and together took out the coffin. from inside the vehicle and place it on an alter that is right on the side of the pulpit.

While the procession of the ceremonial event began, it was seen that Gee began to look solemnly following the course of the event while Satriya, who was now standing in the back row of the mourners, directed her gaze one by one to all those present at this burial place.

So many unusual things that can be seen from this event in his thoughts and analysis, starting from the absence of family members, several high-ranking government agencies, and of course starting to have many media crew present but only focusing on one person who is right in front of him. in front of the altar.

Suddenly Satriya's mind jolted slightly when she looked at the entire location of the burial area, her eyes reflexively caught some strange movements that seemed to form a formation of people around within a certain radius. Although in general everyone wore clothes of almost the same color, Satriya was able to see in detail some of the special characteristics of those in the place. Starting from those who are near the alter, a row of media crews, to those who are outside the ceremonial event where they stand.

"Gee... do you know the person who is giving a speech at the alter?" Satriya whispered again to the girl who was looking straight at the intended person without looking at her.

"His name is Doctor Budi, who is a special staff from the Ministry of Health and was a colleague of the late Doctor Vitto when he was still a member of a similar independent department," replied Gee, who knew quite a few people in the environment of the late Doctor Vitto.

Satriya discontinued some of the questions that she wanted to ask the girl because she remembered the ceremonial process that was taking place more solemnly, and decided to follow this funeral procession until the end of the event.

"Satriya, can you tell me again what you experienced earlier when the funeral procession for the late Doctor Vitto was in progress before I reveal a few things I want to hear first what is in your mind" Gee opened the conversation when they had returned and are now in the apartment inhabited by Satriya.

"I'm a little confused about what to explain to you Gee, but I just feel so many irregularities that can be seen from the whole event, not to mention the sensory changes in body condition that simultaneously occur in me," replied Satriya as she walked towards Bakas to grab a few drinks. can.

"Hmm, what kind of sensory body condition do you mean Satriya?" Gee tried to catch the meaning of the man's statement which now seemed a little serious.

"Or is it just an increase in cognitive neurologic levels which makes some of your body's senses such as sight, hearing, and smell more focused which causes your body to be more responsive to the environment around you?" Gee added his statement but in a reflex motion covered his mouth with one of his palms.

The two of them looked equally surprised and the atmosphere froze for a moment. A sentence that can unexpectedly explain what is happening to Satriya, even the girl can say it without realizing it.

"Okay Gee..., this is the craziest thing we are facing and we both don't realize it, and now, what happened to you?" Satriya tried to break the ice of the conversation again with a question.

"Satriya, I also don't understand as much as you do with all the neurotic enhancement that is in your body, on the other hand, something we experience is the same as if someone has reached a phase of consciousness, I don't know where I've read about this before" Gee returned to reply with a more analytical answer, very much different from the previous Gee.

"Then Gee, what changes have you had besides this?" Satriya tries to pry it further.

“Do you think that all of this has something to do with some of the research and experiments carried out by the late Doctor Vitto?” Gee suddenly guesses what is in Satriya's mind right now.

"Again you surprised me Gee" Satriya realized that Gee was quicker to catch what she was about to say without even revealing.

"But the next question is if it is true that there is a connection, but we cannot find an answer because all the information we are looking for now no longer has a source" Gee refers to the owner of the source of information, which is none other than the late Doctor Vitto.

"I don't know Gee, my mind is also currently difficult to understand" Satriya tried to change the subject.

"The offer for the position is still valid for you Satriya, if you want the job" once again Gee caught the direction of the conversation from Satriya.

"Wow, if this continues I'll be afraid if I'm close to you Gee" Satriya began to quip again Gee who seemed to be able to read what was currently on her mind.

"It's up to you Satriya" Gee replied with a laugh, his presence to the man in front of him was indeed to offer back the job he had promised.

Received an offer to accept a job from Gee, met Satriya to someone named Wayan whose place and whereabouts still depended on the results of communication between the two and now Satriya had to return to accompany Gee to reunite herself with the man mentioned.

"Gee, does this man named Wayan always do his work outside the office and what field is he in?" asked Satriya when she found herself with the girl when she had to retrace to a traditional market that was far from the center of the capital.

"Yeah, not much different when you, I mean when we used a game application some time ago Satriya" replied Gee jokingly teasing the man walking beside him.

“You mean the developer of the app has now changed or added job features?” Satriya, who doesn't follow the development of several game applications, is too busy with routine work.

"Never mind Satriya, I'm also confused about how to explain it to you, now that's the person you can directly ask him later!" said Gee while pointing his index finger at a figure who was making a transaction with an old woman.

The two of them seemed to just approach and wait for the man named Wayan as described above to complete the transaction for a jet black pottery which can be ascertained if the item has a fairly valuable value for certain circles.

"Hey Gee, you finally managed to find my whereabouts, and is this the man you always talk about?" Greet this man named Wayan, then immediately introduce himself to Satriya.

"So what do you think Wayan, is it enough to meet the criteria you want, and at this time the whole creation that is lodged in my stomach is asking for lunch appointments?" Gee without hesitation expressed his wish.

"Okay..., okay... we're looking for a place that's a little more relaxed," said the man in response to Gee's request, while Satriya could only respond with a smile.

A restaurant with a rural concept in the style of a hut where they eat a variety of dishes served. The calm and cool atmosphere can be seen from the shady trees that fill the restaurant area, some visitors also seem to enjoy some spots to just take selfies, there is even a special area for celebrities or culinary hunters.

"So Wayan, what activities do you do, and do you have to be like Gee said that the specific criteria you are looking for?" Satria tried to open a conversation.

"Hmm, you turned out to be eaten by Gee's joke, my brother Satriya, there are no special requirements even the work I do is included as a freelancer" Wayan replied to Satriya's question with a little smile, his eyes glanced at Gee who now seemed to be laughing out loud.

Wayan then explained to Satriya that the work he was engaged in was a job similar to a profession commonly called a curator or observer of something that has artistic, cultural value, and even has historical value if he can polish it well. So far, he has collaborated with several government agencies both from within and outside the country and some of them have collaborated with several museums that still need his services to add to their collection treasury.

"Isn't that the same as a collector?" Satriya asks.

"It's not wrong if you think like that, but the essence of this work is finding a common thread, especially regarding the journey of human civilization and hoping that one day you will find a bright spot from the missing link that has always been a debate everywhere," Wayan tried to shorten his explanation. and continued his request.

"So Satriya, I happen to need you to join are you willing?"

"So Wayan, what duties and obligations do I have to fulfill if I have fulfilled your request?"

"It's quite simple Satriya, later I will give you a smartphone that has a special application installed that is connected to various tasks in it" Wayan began to explain some guidelines to Satriya because he felt the man was ready to join the job. Including the fixed income that will be received is greater than the previous job.
