A WASTED KNIGHT
Yin and Yang Energy Become One

After work, that afternoon Wiraksara opened the book Science

Steel Hand Treads. Some unfamiliar kanji characters have been asked

to Tie Shi so now Wiraksara easier to learn. Within

his first exercise, Tie Shi accompanied him to practice.

“Sala, later when studying this science you should not be surprised,

you will experience a change in your hands,” Tie Shi said.

Wiraksara looked at both of his hands

“Uncle means how?”

“You try it yourself, you learn first how to manage energy

in the Science of Steel Hand Treads. Later if it's good, you try it

channeling the energy of the Steel Tread to both your hands.”

“Ah, it's about easy Uncle, I can learn it by

fast.”

Tie Shi smiled knotingly

Just try it, when her hand turns Sala must be shocked,

inner Tie Shi.

Wiraksara sat cross-legged following the instructions in the book,

previously he had read the instructions now it was time to practice below

guidance of Temperature. Pure Eve from the navel then began to be deployed flowing into both hands.

Suddenly both of his hands were pale in color, feeling cold

and stiff, before long the color turned increasingly pale white.  Wiraksara was shocked and stopped the flow

its energy.

“Uncle, my hands are so cold and stiff?

Lest this science make my hand paralyzed!” Wiraksara cried with dismay.

However Tie Shi only chuckled, it seemed like he was excited because

succeeding in prank his student.

“He he he he Sala..Sala you are a swordsman is not it? Period

just felt like it was already scared? That was from the beginning already

I said your hands would change. Science will make your hands as hard as it is

steel, and as sharp as a sword. If you just the initial process you have stopped, how

can I teach you?”

Wiraksara was stunned, then said

“Ah, why didn't Uncle tell you from earlier?  Alright I repeat again.”

Wiraksara again sat cross-legged and exerted energy

deep into both hands. A few moments later his hands began to cool

and pale in color, his fingers

feels stiff. However Wiraksara obeyed Tie shi's orders, he continued to exert

energy into both hands. His hands began to turn which were originally white to

silvery. Suddenly it sounded Tie Shi yell

“Yak, that's enough, now try to cut the branches of the Yang tree

That Liu in front of you!”

Wiraksara stood up and jumped to grab Yang Liu's tree branch

(Rain Tree) whose limb is waving in the spring breeze.

His hands moved with a cutting motion.

“Kraaak...kraak...kraak!”.

That Yang Liu tree branch fell to the ground with ease

like at the parang. Tie Shi clapped happily at the progress

Wiraksara is so fast.

“Ha ha ha good good, we so have a stockpile of firewood

for cooking.  Right I guess, you

is a smart child, your progress is sparse once.”

Wiraksara is so happy to find a more challenging target,

look for a slightly large branch.  His body again flashed looking for a new target.

“Kraak...kraak...kraak!”.

The branches of the Bwe tree that were in full bloom fell into the

the land and its flowers fell on the ground. Wiraksara exclaimed while jumping around

under the rain of Bwe flowers.

“Horee...I can..I can!”.

Suddenly Wiraksara felt the heat in both palms

her hands. At first he had thought the energy from the Steel Hand Tread science had faded away,

but when Wiraksara saw both of his hands he was surprised by his hands

no longer silvery, but silver mixed with red

yellowish, smoldering like iron heated in a fire.

“Uncle Tie Shi, my hand changed again, the color is not

silver but yellow red glowed like steel heated in a fire!

Tie Shi was startled, then checked Wiraksara's two hands.

When his hand touched Wiraksara's hand, Tie shi's hand was overheated like

holding a burning charcoal. The branches of the Bwe tree were scattered, and,

the part of the branch that was hit by Wiraksara's hand was instantly charred like a fire.

“Sala, what are you doing? Why is it like this?! Ask Tie Shi

with a confused tone.

Wiraksara grew panicked seeing the confused Tie Shi

by ourselves

“Hah, so this is a mistake?”

Tie Shi thought for a moment then said

“No...no, pull again the energy in you, restore to the state

back again!” Tie Shi's Order.

Wiraksara immediately restored his internal energy back to

condition again. Slowly the heat in his hand disappeared, changing with the taste

cold and cold. His hands were reddish yellow like iron

the smoldering slowly turned silvery, then pale white and finally recovered

back to how it was.

Wiraksara was relieved his hands had returned to normal. When

he turned his head Tie Shi looked like he was thinking then asked

“Sala, what knowledge did you master before the science of the Hand

Steel?”

Wiraksara was stunned hearing Tie Shi's question

“What's the matter Uncle?”

Tie Shi shook his head while sighing.

“The energy of the Steel Hand Tread is Yin energy, but you

have another science that has energy. I don't know why when you

exerting Yin Steel Hand Tread energy and Yang energy from your knowledge

others also followed, such as Sam Pek who followed Eng Tay.”

“Ah, maybe it's the energy of Science Maha Aji it's Uncle. You

just remember when I got to sleep in the snow because all of a sudden it was energy

it comes out on its own when the air around me is cold. Uncle then

taught me how to control Maha Aji's energy. So too with science

The Steel Hand Tread, when my hand cooled, the Maha Aji energy passed

following him trying to neutralize,” Wiraksara said.

Tie Shi looked surprised then exclaimed

“Yaa.now that I know, that energy merged into one.

when you're facing a threat, so now when you're using Tread science

Hand of Steel, Maha Aji energy will follow you, and vice versa.

Practice a lot, after this you will become a great swordsman!”

“Is that really Uncle? But I was so scared, my teacher once told me that I

having great knowledge, one day there will be people who challenge me and test

my science. Maybe in the future many people will challenge me to fight because they want to try the greatness of science

kumiliki. Honestly, this is not what I really want. Aware of me

never like the name to fight,” said Wiraksara.

“Your teacher is right, that's how the risk becomes a swordsman

choose a match, once someone sees the greatness of your knowledge, then compete

people will look for you to challenge a picnic, or even want to master a book

heirloom Steel Hand Tread.”

Tie Shi looked at the sky, the sun started to sink to the horizon

west, it's getting dark soon

“I think today's training is enough, tomorrow we continue

again.”

“Good Uncle, please rest, I want to clean up

these boughs for firewood,” Wiraksara started picking up the wood

strewn. But it was only a moment that he worked that suddenly Tie Shie's voice sounded

startled

“Aarrggh...parkl...haiyaaa..amsyong...amsyong!”.

Wiraksara was surprised, the drop of the branch wood and

flashed towards Tie Shi whose face looked deathly pale

“Uncle...what's up? Did Uncle get bitten by a snake?” Ask Wiraksara

anxiously.

Suddenly Tieshi's hand flashed out an ear

Wiraksara, the young man was shocked and exclaimed in pain

“Awww..Uncle, what happened? Why did Uncle suddenly pick me up?!”
