Maize Adventurer Softener
Chapter 52

Linga still stood in her place heeding the presence of Rey and Bram who were still waiting for her to leave. He could feel Lita. He and Lita are connected by a magical bond that Lingga deliberately made to protect Lita.

"May you be okay there? For a while I'm sure Airlangga won't hurt you any further. I'm sorry, Lita?!"

Linga turned her head towards Rey and Bram, a thin smile raised at the corner of her lips. 

"All right, let me go, take care of yourself!"

"Ehm, almost forgot! Remember, if the time comes you two better stay away from me and Sari! That's if .. you still want to live!" he said he reminded Rey and Bram who immediately heard the threat of Linga.

"What, do you think he's serious Bram?" rey asked as Lingga walked away from the two of them.

"You know what he is, he seems serious Rey?!" 

"How do you think? Continue or …"

"Stop what you mean? Um, I'm .. I don't know?!" bram replied with a bit of hesitation.

Atikah's easy death at the hands of the Linga automatically shrinks their guts when faced with the Lingga but the shadow of a pile of money and the promise of glory offered to them makes both strengthen their stance to stay on the side Airlangga.

"Rey, if Atikah alone could be defeated so easily by him how could we?!"

"You underestimated my ability? I can fight him!" rey is sure.

(I can fight it!)

"Yes .. yes, I believe you have the same ability as Atikah but do not forget Lingga has the same ability as Airlangga!"

They were silent for a moment and stared at the phallus that disappeared in the dark of the night. In both hearts began to appear doubts that were quite nagging. 

"Rey, it looks like we need to rethink our plans" Bram said in a low tone.

"Why should we do that?" rey asked a little annoyed that Bram was constantly harassing her.

(why should we do it?)

They look at each other. Bram continued his words, "Just think about that! Do you want us to die in vain?".

(Try thinking about that! Do you want us to die in vain?)

Rey is still staring at Bram, she agrees with Bram. "That's it, so .. how good are we?"

"See the situation, if Lingga is indeed more able to benefit us than we will fight with him and forget about the price?!"

(We'll fight him and forget about the reward?!)

Rey is silent. Think for a moment and answer. "Ok, then we agree! If the situation is indeed unfavorable, we will help the Linga!"

"Good, so we just wait for that day to come."

...----------------...

Saka was restless in his sleep. Occasionally he frowned as sweat soaked all over his body. He dissolves into a deep sadness, a grief that leaves him with nightmares for the rest of his life.

"Don't .. Lita's sister, don't brother .." she muttered in her sleep.

Saka continues to be haunted by Lita, a shadow of the horror she sees with her own eyes traumatizing Saka deeply.

Saka grew up in an orphanage owned by a foundation run by a subsidiary owned by Lingga. Saka no longer had parents rather, no one would accept him as a child. Saka banished.

He was found by one of the villagers not far from the orphanage owned by Lingga, Tunggadewi orphanage. Saka who has just been born is thrown away by an irresponsible person complete with ari-ari still attached to his body.

The locals handed Saka over to the caretaker and of course with Lingga's own consent. When seeing baby Saka for the first time, Lingga knew they had a fused destiny. 

Destiny will bring him to the end of eternity. Lingga smiled as he touched Saka's small hand back then.

"Finally the time to answer my prayers, even though I have to wait for you to grow up Saka."
