The silent middle of the night was instantly noisy by the hundreds of jenglot sounds that were getting closer towards the three of them, especially towards Tiara.
"Be careful, especially you Tiara. Because they will always be after you," said Mr. Sujandi commemorating the three of them.
"Even though I can't see them, but I feel the presence of those approaching here" he added.
"Oh yes, I leave them to the three of you. You know I don't have powers like you. Drugs, may god protect you."
Mr. Sujandi immediately closed the basement door.
"Damn that man! Why not tell him from the beginning so I can get ready to face the creatures."
Tiara was upset at Mr. Sujandi who was hiding underground because he was late to tell her valuable information.
'Splash,' The sound of an attack from the White Tiger and Genderuwo that suddenly came out from the bodies of Diki and Arzan.
"Focus you guys." Genderuwo warned Arzan, Tiara and Diki not to daydream.
"Although they look quite weak, but the speed should not be doubted," said the White Tiger while attacking the jenglot that continues to arrive.
"Rightly what the old man said, these Jenglot-jenglot are only targeting you, Tiara," Kandita said as he attacked the Jenglots approaching towards Tiara.
"Stay beside me!" Added.
Arzan waved his hand at Tiara. His intention was to have Tiara approach him.
'PROTECTIVE LAND!' Arzan recites the spell.
And the land slowly shut Tiara, Arzan and Diki to shelter from the Jenglot's attack.
"I leave it up to you to eradicate those disgusting fleas!" Tiara said to Jin khodam. And immediately the protective ground was tightly sealed.
Unceasingly, the Jin Khodam exterminated the entire Jenglot that was eyeing and closing in on the Protector of the land.
"They are endless!" The White Tiger complained while attacking the approaching Jenglot.
Several hours passed by the Jin khodam seen still eradicate the Jenglot that is not inexhaustible.
Until the sun begins to rise. Surprisingly, the body movements of the Jenglot looked different from before. His speed also seemed to slow down.
Sure enough, they turned around. Who had been targeting Tiara who was in the Protector of the land, now they went to leave the vast land owned by Mr. Sujandi.
"What's wrong with them?"
The White Tiger looked astonished after seeing the Jenglot who had just run away.
"There must be a reason behind them leaving" Genderuwo guessed.
Suddenly Mr. Sujandi came out of hiding followed by his son and wife.
Likewise with Tiara, Diki and Arzan are free from the protection of the land that is suddenly destroyed just like that.
The eyes of the three of them looked very lackluster like sleepy oranh. Their bodies were also slouching like exhausted people.
"The sun is visible. That means outside conditions are guaranteed to be safe" said Mr. Sujandi helping his wife out of the basement.
"What does the sun have to do with the Jenglots?" Tiara's question sounded lethargic.
Mr. Sujandi explained that the Sun's relationship with the Jenglots was that they hated daylight more precisely the sunlight.
"Their body will be stiff if exposed to the sun for a long time. That's one of the reasons the village is very quiet at night because it takes shelter underground" explained Mr. Sujandi.
"Hoaaaaaaam, oh so."
Tiara, Diki and Arzan also fell down because they were not strong enough to withstand the drowsiness.
"YOU DON'T SLEEP HERE!" Shouted the angry Sunojat who actually pity.
Reflexes Tiara and Diki immediately woke up and stood firm. Arzan woke himself up slowly.
"IT'S BETTER THAT YOU SLEEP IN A HUT, MORE COMFORTABLE THAN HERE!" Shouted Sunojat.
***
A few hours passed. They woke up from their sleep.
"YOU'RE AWAKE?!" Shouted Sunojat looking angry.
Just opened Diki's eyes, Tiara and Arzan were greeted with the sound of Sunojat's mouth.
"YOU SHOULD EAT FIRST!"
As usual Sunojat looks angry while telling Diki, Tiara and Arzan to eat with the food he has served.
"You guys are so slick. I wanted to eat quickly, but my father told me to wait for you to wake up. So sucks!"
Usi's upset. Although upset but his facial expression looks flat.
They all immediately picked up the delicious-looking dish.
As they ate, suddenly someone came in a state of crying. Of course it made Tiara, Diki and Arzan surprised and immediately asked about her crying.
"Who is crying?" Ask the woman who seems to be crying in confusion.
"Eh, you're crying, you're still asking who's crying again" said Tiara puzzled.
However, Mr. Sujandi directly approached Tiara and told him why he could cry.
"I told you, all the women in this village have been exposed to the Jenglot virus. So do not be surprised if you meet a woman who is crying, angry, sad, upset, or laughing," explained Mr. Sujandi.
"Oh he, meet him Sutejat. The younger brother of my wife" added Mr. Sujandi.
"It sure is long like receiving rations, right?!" Guess Tiara with her flat expression.
"Xixixixix, Brother Tiara is right," said Usi who laughed as she covered her mouth. Yet again he laughed with his expression flat.
"This is Brother Sujandi, mother told me to give this fruit. He said there was an honored guest in the house of my sister," said Sutejat who chatted in tears.
"Oh he thanks."
"Yes I went home first, brother," said Sutejat still crying.
"Oh he thanks Sutejat. Give my regards to mother," Sujandi ordered.
Mr. Sujandi also told Tiara, Diki and Arzan to return to eating, after eating they opened and ate watermelon giving Sutejat.
There was one question that always stuck Diki's mind. That is why all the citizens even had to hide underground. All of them have been infected with the Jenglot virus.
Then Mr. Sujandi explained that every even Jenglot still likes to roam around to find fresh blood of women who turn to their virus or look for women who are menstruating. That goes for women who have been exposed to the virus as well.
"Then why do men have to hide?" Ask Diki who is still curious.
"You know how scaly the voice of the Jenglot-jenglot is. Yes, we are very disturbed by this sound while sleeping. They will also aim at the man if the man nudges him. Even they will continue to pursue until the man is crazy or dies," explained Mr. Sujandi.
Hearing the hat made Diki satisfied.
