AGUS

AGUS
The Third Life of Agus Nugroho


Agus felt in such a void that the feeling of sadness he felt would never end. She still remembers her true self, and about her last memories with Lulu and Tina. Such a vast city as he looked at the streets filled with people, humans existed in the world he was living in today. "There are humans, and my body becomes the body of children?" He looked at his own hands and often touched his own body to make sure. An ancient city that was like in a classic movie that he watched in his previous life— Earth. "Why is this so that if I die I should be in the afterlife instead of living as someone else?" Agus did not understand anything more impossible than before.


He walked down the street like a dazed person, he felt sad mixed into one, besides being able to see a human again, he recalled again with Lulu Aite. His head ached as he recalled the childhood he had. The memory of the original body owner is increasingly spreading throughout the body, Agus does not have the name— the original body owner is just an unnamed orphan, he is just a child from the village. A group of adults approached him and beat him up to tell him to ask for money. He took the initiative to go with the flow and search for information about where he lived now, he was curious because this place was very much different from when he was with the Dark Elves.


He was sitting near the store selling bread, he was evicted for disturbing people's views. Agus chose to stand up, he saw that he was being watched, he tried to recall memories, but he could not remember clearly. The letters and numbers attached were not much different, he could deduce that this world was still the same as before. He did not want to think too much and ran to avoid the supervision of adults who took advantage of him. "I have to find out why there are so many humans, why there were no humans before, and how long it has been since my death." Agus turned to a main street alley.


Agus fell down after bumping into a man who looked big with his burly body. Agus felt in danger, he had no choice but to fight back if the man wanted to beat him up. The man smiled kindly at her, Agus fell silent for a moment and accepted the helping hand. The man helped Agus willingly, Agus answered everything he asked, he lowered his voice like he was asking for mercy. The man invited Agus to come with him to his house. The blonde man only lives with his wife and does not have a child even though from his complaints the man is 30 years old.


"Miranda, I'm home."


"I've been waiting for you, my husband." The woman named Miranda looked at Agus carefully.


Agus was very grateful for the help of a man named Jack. The house which is also a flower shop, something that is convenient for her to see even though she does not know much about the types of flowers in this world, but looks very beautiful. Jack is a man who works in a factory, he only works as a laborer moving goods into a vehicle in the form of a horse carriage. Agus claimed to have lost his memory, only the name he could remember clearly, even just calling his own name as Agus Nugroho. She moved both of her hands, she was not a noble like the two husbands expected.


The Folion Kingdom where Agus lived now, he asked a lot like magic and the like. Jack knew enough that magic was only owned by talented people, such as nobles. Agus listened to everything, he thought like an adult. Jack and Miranda looked at each other, they both felt that Agus was a mature child not according to his age every time he spoke. The cozy living quarters had actual empty rooms for their future children, but the dream had not come true until now, they could only leave it all to fate.


"I talked to my wife, she agreed, you can stay here."


"I'm so grateful, Mr. Jack."


Agus goes to take a shower and picks up the new clothes Jack bought for him. Agus did not want something that was given for free, he chose to help Miranda a lot in her work. In a makeshift room with only enough bedding for himself, Agus took the time to meditate to control the flow of 'Mana' he had learned. Such faint streams from all directions, calm breaths to feel all the positive energy flowing through the air. The main center is below the navel, according to him the fastest gathering place is below the stomach. The present and the former have such a big difference.


"If only we had children, they would be like you" Miranda said.


"..." - ".Jack was silent for a moment, he stroked Miranda's shoulder.


Agus can understand, he also did not have children while still with Lulu Aite. Agus was very curious about his wife's situation. He remembered that he was the first human to be seen by the Dark Elves, Agus was convinced that he was currently in another world, or had jumped into a distant future. Agus wanted to ask about the Dark Elves, but he knew it would be very strange if it became a problem, he would look for information about the Dark Elves first and then ask about it.


"I'm gonna turn off the lights, all night, son."


"Good night, Miss Miranda."


"..." - ".Miranda smiled, and closed the door.


Agus used fireball magic, he managed it easily, his fireball was not as big as a football, quite the size of a tennis ball. He is satisfied and will develop it. In the morning there was a familiar voice coming from the kitchen, Miranda was busy making breakfast. Agus took the initiative to help, as much as possible so as not to look excessive. Miranda reached out her hand to caress Agus' black hair, but Miranda did not. Agus who knew it immediately asked Miranda not to doubt what she wanted to do. Miranda's eyes glazed over like she was about to cry, Agus' gentle smile made Miranda unable to hide her happiness. Agus was very sorry for this good family, Agus hid with a childish attitude when it was embarrassing for his soul who was very old.


"You're so adorable, I'd really like to have a kid like you." Miranda hugged Agus.


"Mhhh!" Agus was immersed in something soft.
