ETERNAL SWORD
The Princess's Competition

The star approached the bush with Incen. He found some archers dead and some still alive but stuck because of the arrow stuck in his chest.

"Who are you?"Ask the stars to the archers.

The archers didn't say it either, still drooping in pain.

"Said your names?"The stars slightly decreased his voice.

Still, the archers could not speak but endure the pain.

"Hurry up and say your names! Otherwise I'll add to the pain even more horribly!"Pinta Bintang was a little assertive.

"No sir. Nobody told us all. We just happened to see the master passing in front of us, so took advantage of that moment to injure the master. Sorry sir."

"Oh, so. Sure enough? "

"Yes sir. We don't have a boss. Nobody told us to. We are a pack of master animal hunters. Wild animals in the forest. Please forgive us for helping to hurt you."

The star looked at Incen for a moment with his shady face. While speaking kindly.

"What do you think? Can you believe what they say?"

Incen stared fixedly at the herd of hunters. Five minutes later, he concluded.

"Yes, sir, they seem to be honest. What they say. No sign of lies on his face."Lirih Inken slowly.

"I suggest we just let them go." Further.

"Well if so."Welcome Stars.

When the hunter's herd was released, they walked away from it. The star is heading west. To the south then take the path to the east again.

Ingen kindly invites Bintang to talk while stepping into the dense grass.

"When can you tell where this master came from?"

"I am from the Eternal Valley. That's where I come from."

"Oh, isn't that the place was a former kingdom?"

"Rubber."Sahut Stars.

"Why can it be in the forest? And wander?" Tanya Inken.

"My place is ruined. Not a little left. Destroyed by savages. Even my grandfather fell victim to the cruelty of those criminals."

"O, apparently so."

"I'm going nowhere now that I don't have a definite direction." Smoothed the Stars while sweeping away his splattered sweat water.

"From my childhood, my father used to give me space for adventure. My father was a man who did not want to see his ank bound in an environment. Environment that limits its space of movement. Now what my father said was really beneficial to me. Everyone should be able to wander."Lirih Incen while contemplating her father's words.

While talking a noise was heard from behind the shady trees. The voice was slow but long ago it sounded fast. Incen heard clearly the voice behind the trees he passed by.

"What sound is it, sir?"Mumbled Incen.

The star did not immediately answer in unison He moved next to a tree covered by dense wood roots. Hide He there, see who is about to pass.

"They don't seem to be people here, sir. I've never seen clothes like that. Weird."Ketus Inken saw the passing troupe dressed unusually.

"They are not inhabitants of the earth."Speak Stars.

"meaning?"Inken was curious.

"They are not people from this earth. They are the inhabitants of space."Bright Stars while peering from behind the dense wood roots.

"There are inhabitants in the sky?"

"Yes there. They are like us too. But the inhabitants of space are far more advanced than the inhabitants of this earth's surface. They are much better with their technology. The things they use are all modern." The little star explained to Inken to erase his curiosity.

The star did not answer just watching the group that passed by with the roar of the legs of each horse. When it was far passed, he came out to invite Incen back to tread the path he occupied.

"Next to the mountain was a village of people. Will I just take you there?" Ask a Star to Incen.

Incen stood still for a moment, as if weighing something.

"How's Inken? Am I gonna take you there?" Reset Stars.

"Incen is shocked soon. It's up to you as long as it's safe, sir."

"good. Get ready to go there!"

"Good sir."

Soon the Stars brought Inken to the village. On the way he saw several people walking in the same direction, the village he was trying to reach. The closer they got to the village the more people passed by towards the village. They were confused, and wondered what was there in their hearts?

Seeing more and more people entering the village, Bintang immediately approached one of the people who happened to walk nearby and asked.

"Sir, if you may know, what's up ahead? I see like there's a crowd."

"There's a fight, sir. The gold glass."

"I don't understand sir!"

"Today sir, the king's son is missing from the Kingdom. The king has issued important information to all citizens. Whoever finds his lost daughter will be given a gift from the kingdom."Said a middle-aged man.

"meaning sir? He said there was some kind of struggle."

"Look, sir, from the efforts made by the King who did not produce results as well. That is information to find his daughter so he tried the second venture initiated by the government advisors. That is to fight first on the arena stage then after winning he raised welcome to lift the golden glass and emit it into the sky."The old man's light.

"But unfortunately this show has been three days no one has managed to lift the golden glass. Even though he invited to all directions. Even the king will make an edict for his daughter if anyone succeeds in raising her." Added.

"Hasn't his daughter gone sir?"

"Master. But with victory in that battle and, when he managed to lift his golden glass then he would automatically be able to present the princess in front of him. In addition, the king's wife has been sickly since losing her only daughter."

"Oh so."Lirih Bintang understands the meaning of the parents who are grandparents.

When thinking two hours, finally Bintang want to try the challenge. His intention was only to help the mother of the king's daughter. May he succeed and be able to treat the loss of the king's wife. He understood and felt compassion for what the king and his wife had experienced, for he had experienced it himself. A sense of loss that really broke his heart.

Slowly the Star stepped towards the crowd with her calm heart. Whereas Inken was instead, he tried to close his curves and cover his face.

"I'll try it!"The Star murmured casually to the agitated-looking woman.

"Let the knights of distant lands, and do not engage. They not only want to win but they are more than that. They killed each other, kill the master."Megat Inken was worried.

"Just calm down, Incen, they can't hurt me." The stars murmured in a calm tone.

After saying so, the rising star led Incen to the rumbling place by the cheers of the voice in the arena.

One by one the knights were named by the organizing committee. They went on stage and fought each other. Everyone who died in the fight made Inken very worried. Three hours passed with dozens of knights killed in the ring.

The latter is called the Star. When he called his name slowly he stepped onto the stage and was immediately greeted by a simultaneous attack from his uniformed iron law.

His opponent was quite wearing war equipment, while he had nothing but empty hands that he played with great.

Even though the stars wear nothing, people are surprised to see it. Amazed to look at him. Simple but can break the opponent's moves. Relax, he faced it. Never move other than standing in his place just waiting for the opponent's attack.

His opponent fell down for a moment when he smashed his fingers into his neck. Rebah but not dead. Then the Star slowly took the golden glass in front of the committee and lifted it casually. After that it was emitted into the sky.

Everyone stared unblinkingly, seeing how the Star was able to lift the golden glass with its leisure. Though previously tens or even hundreds of people tried it but could not.

The plaza stage simultaneously cheered filled the stage square. When the star faces the golden light, a shining light appears from the sky and is reflected by the bright light from the crowd.

Everyone is shocked. It turned out that the reflection of the light was none other than coming from the king's daughter they had been looking for all this time. They did not expect, not realizing that the princess was standing between them. It was Inken who tried to cover his face with a black cloth but was unable to cover the light all over his body that came out from inside him.

The king who was not in the location immediately appeared and witnessed the miracle. Surprised the king saw his son so too Incen was shocked not to fists with his father. It turned out that the king was his own father who made the contest.
