Chapter 125 DPT
"We have the power of Ravana, honey. I became convinced that Jaya could defeat whatever was in that terrible place" Ana said despite her previous doubts.
"What if I see her secretly? After all, I'm dead," said Risa.
"You're dead but you know you can be wiped out" Ice said.
"Huh? Time can be like that?" Risa swelled in disbelief.
"As you please!" ice then broke down.
His body is very tired.
"Ana, allow me to spy on the situation there, will you?" risa Pinta.
Ana turns to Jaya and Pak Burhan. He was confused and from his gaze sought an opinion.
"It's also good that the idea is done" Burhan said.
"Sa, you be careful and come back soon!" Jaya hopes for Risa.
"Okay, I'll be back soon to bring news for you guys" said Risa.
...***...
Ana sleeps in Jaya's arms while in the hideout. While Princess Ice had fallen asleep and Burhan was sleeping in a sitting state leaning back. Risa came patting Burhan on the shoulder.
"Sir Burhan, wake up!" risa Sentak.
Jaya who has not been fully asleep is also awakened, coupled with Ana who is awake.
"What's up, Sa? What did you find there?" tanya Jaya is approaching.
"I saw a big three-headed dog. His face is like a bulldog. His legs are four, but his head is three. There is still a new daughter who was thrown into her meal. And he looks alike …." Risa turned to look at the Ice Princess who was still asleep.
"Don't tell me you found Princess Ice's sister?" ask Ana.
Risa nodded.
"Oh, no…." Ana stared in disbelief holding back the cry.
"Should we tell him?" tanya Jaya glanced at Princess Ice.
"Not yet. Our plan would later fail to obtain that Silver Sword. I'm sure the three-headed dog is guarding the sword" Burhan said.
"Pak Burhan is right. There are those animals that are being guarded. Then, those who die are offered, the blood is flowed to the animal" said Risa.
"So, the river that had a pool of blood was the victim of that terrible animal?" ask Jaya.
Burhan nodded.
"How do we get rid of these animals?" ask Ana.
"I don't think anyone has ever been able to" he said.
"I will prove the strength of Ravana who is in me. Maybe if our strength is united with the power of the Ice Princess, we will kill the big dog" said Jaya.
"Ummm, but who made offerings to the animal? Did you see him, Sa?" ask Ana.
"I didn't see him, he was wearing a black robe and covering his head with a hood" Risa said.
"I just remembered something. Has the King ever attended a meeting of the kings of the archipelago lately?" ask Burhan.
Jay shook his head.
"What's wrong?" ask Jaya.
"I just want to warn you not to trust the kings and queens easily. With the power of the five kings in the archipelago, the central government of the city will also be easily influenced. Including a president even once," said Mr. Burhan.
"Is there anything I missed about this gathering of yours?" Princess Ice was awake and suddenly shocked everyone.
"We're just planning on strategizing. Risa found her silver sword. But, there was a huge, monstrous creature guarding him. Big Pitbull with three heads" said Jaya.
"Cannot be. I believe my father killed the animal during his hunt with the Merak Queen and also the previous Meraki King. How could the animal survive and even exist in the North Jin King's territory?" Princess Ice looked panicked and could not believe what she heard.
"I think someone is allied with the King of North Jin. And I'm sure he's from the royal family" Burhan said.
"Do you know that I've been suspicious of Queen Peacock. Sometimes he has a good nature but occasionally he has an evil nature. She even killed her own husband because he wanted to divorce her" said Princess Ice.
"Wait a minute, Na. When it comes to King of North Jin, is he related to King Jin Harun? My husband first?" ask Risa suddenly.
"King Jin Harun?" Burhan.
Risa nodded. Jaya and Ana finally tell of their adventures in the territory of King Aaron and Risa's marriage to the figure of King Jin.
"To my knowledge, the King of Haram has a younger brother named Harun, the ruler of the South," he said.
"Heh, why did you say his name?!" cry Princess Ice until it hits Burhan's shoulder.
"King Haram?" Ana, Jaya, and Risa say simultaneously.
"Sstttt, don't say that name!" exclaims Princess Ice again.
"Yes, that's his name. The real name of the King of North Jin should not be mentioned" Burhan said in a low voice.
"What if his name is called?" ask Risa.
"He will find us and finish us off easily" Burhan said.
"And don't make the power I'm hiding you here go to waste" said Princess Ice.
"Oh, if you think about it right also do not mention, because haram hehehe," said Risa.
Ana and Jaya almost laughed in response to Risa, but Burhan and Princess Ice were already staring intently at them full of threats and warnings.
"Okay, okay, let's not say that," said Ana.
"We'll get out of here at dawn tomorrow. Now we go back to rest first" said Burhan.
"I have to check the stuff inside the backpack before nightfall. See what items we can use later," said Princess Ice.
He opened the backpack cover. There was something he wanted most at the time and it was definitely the same as everything. They need fresh water. The air inside the tropical forest within the snow desert was actually hot.
"Can we survive long without water?" princess Ice asked Burhan.
"Over the next few days maybe we can hold on. We can still live, but there will be unpleasant symptoms of dehydration. But after that, our condition will definitely deteriorate and we will definitely die in a week, at most" he said.
"Then, how are we gonna survive?" ask Jaya.
"Just hang on. The problem is that the season here can change. There is cold snow, hot tropical seasons, heavy rain, or even a mixture of all seasons" Burhan replied.
"Just tomorrow we go to the Silver Sword's place so that we immediately leave this place and start a war against the King of the North Jin," said Princess Ice.
Slowly the princess took out the items in the bag she was carrying earlier. There was a bottle of drinking water, a packet of biscuits, and a packet of dried beef jerky.
Ana also checked the contents of the Jays backpack, which contained a one-to-five-liter plastic bottle complete with a lid that could hold water. But now, the bottle is still dry.
"There is no water" said Ana.
"Tomorrow we fill this bottle full when we find water" said Jaya.
He realized his mouth and esophagus were starting to dry. Jaya also glanced at Ana's lips that began to chapped. The hot weather and a lot of sweating made her very thirsty inside the hiding tree that Princess Ice had created.
When Princess Ice stored the items into the backpack, it flashed a terrifying thought. The blood lake. The lake he had seen earlier before seeing the blood waterfall.
"Ummm... Did you guys see the lake of blood?" ask Princess Ice.
Burhan and the others nodded.
"What if the lake is the only source of water here?" tanyakanya.
"You want to drink that blood?" Burhan asked.
"Yes, of course, I don't want to. Somehow I got scared," said Princess Ice, "I even thought, what if my sister turns out to be dead there?"
All were just looking at each other, but Tal was willing to answer what Risa had seen before.
"Rest so that your body is refreshed and can use your great strength again during the fight tomorrow" Ana said.
Princess Ice felt sincerity in Ana's smile. The warmth and affection of a sister. He lay back down and tried to sleep.
