Pendekar Nusantara
The Forbidden Forest II

Taeyang almost fainted seeing such a big snake. During his life only this time he saw a snake that was very large in size. His feet did not stop shaking. Now Taeyang could only stare silently at the huge snake.

“Hyuuungg-nim.. To. to..please.. a.akk..aku”.

With a stammer Taeyang said as his hand tried to reach Aran who was standing not far from him. Seeing Taeyang like this even made Aran laugh.

“Hahahaha, why are you so scared. Look Rumbun, he was even silent not afraid at all”

Said Aran who was still laughing happily.

Not long Rumbun turned his face towards Aran.

“Ma.. Mahapatih”

Said Rumbun with a very pale face.

Aran even more want to laugh hard to see the face of Rumbun.

“Wahahahaha, why is your face pale once”

Aran could not bear it and finally he laughed out loud to see his two friends who now looked like corpses, pale with a lot of sweat.

Taeyang and Rumbun seemed to want to die seeing the behavior of Aran who even laughed out loud.

“Hyungg-nim.”

When Taeyang said again. Then a loud hiss sounded from above their heads. This time the snake is advancing its head down towards the group of Aran.

“Ommmaaaaaa”

With all his strength, Taeyang moved quickly by jumping far back. But what Taeyang did actually made the snake more interested in him and tried to chase after him.

Unlike Rumbun who was still frozen to see the snake chasing Taeyang.

“Hyunngggggg, help meuu”

In his escape, Taeyang shouted very loudly.

Not immediately help Taeyang, Aran even returned to laughing out loud.

“Wuahahahha, hahahahha. You are asking for help with me or with your Omma. Hahahaha, Mamam kamu”

Aran's words make Taeyang almost slipped because of his jokes.

Even now Aran laughs while holding his stomach.

“Hyuungggg, don't joke. Help me, this snake almost ate me”

Shouted Taeyang from a distance.

“Meet, don't laugh. Please save brother Taeyang”

Said Rumbun with a face that was still pale. During his life, recently also he saw a snake as big and along it. In his own place he never saw a snake the same size as an adult elephant.

“Hahahaha. Yes yes, fine. You wait here. You two are so funny”

Said Aran who finally ended his laughter. He then jumped up and moved quickly to catch up to Taeyang.

Aran could see that now the distance between Taeyang and the big snake was only a few meters away. Suddenly the snake let out its very long tongue and wrapped around Taeyang's body.

“Hyuuunngg”

When the snake was about to pull its tongue back into the mouth, Aran cut off the snake's tongue.

Slaaashhh

The piece of snake tongue that was still wrapped around Taeyang's body instantly fell to the ground. While the cut snake was like screaming in pain with its mouth covered in blood. The snake was up rolling around in the forest which caused many trees to fall apart.

Quickly, Aran went down and helped Taeyang. He immediately helped Taeyang release the snake's tongue.

“Hahahaha, your look is now so disgusting Taeyang”

Aran still teases Taeyang who is now all over his body covered in snake mucus.

Taeyang was completely speechless at Aran's behavior that kept teasing him.

“Hyung-nim, you seem to look very happy to see me like this”

Taeyang said softly as he continued to cleanse his body of the snake's slime residue. Taeyang's words even made Aran laugh even harder.

When they were still chatting, the snake was approaching them very quickly. But this time the snake looked very angry at them.

“Puuhh”

When the distance of the snake was close, it released an acid spit towards Aran and Taeyang.

“Taeyang, dodge”

With a quick movement, Aran moved to lift Taeyang's body and take him away.

The acid spit directly hit the trees causing some trees and plants to blister.

“Taeyang go to Rumbun place, let me finish this snake”

“Good Hyung, carefully”

Taeyang replied that he quickly left Aran. He was so afraid of the snake, so he was so excited when Aran asked him to leave immediately.

Seeing Taeyang who had gone far away, Aran then jumped before the snake.

“Large switch, I actually don't want to kill you. But since you have dared to target us, then I will not hesitate to kill you”

Aran said before the big snake.

Now that the serpent's eyes looked as if they were burning with anger, he hated the man standing before him for daring to cut his tongue. In this forest, the snake was at the top of the strata with other powerful creatures. He did not expect that today he would suffer such an unlucky fate. His tongue was cut off by a human.

With a quick movement, the snake charged forward towards Aran.

“Huh, a snake like you wants to attack me”

Aran Mumbled.

As soon as the snake opened its mouth, Aran immediately struck the snake and beat it to the top.

Bughhh

Aran's punch gave off an extremely powerful thrust and caused the snake to fly into the sky.

Aran then jumped into the air and hit the snake on the head.

“Taste this”

Buaagghhh

Boommm

A huge dust instantly filled the air around where the snake fell. Even the sound of the snake falling was heard to some places.

“What sound is”

Some people stop doing their activities because they hear a loud bang.

Taeyang and Rumbun who heard the voice coming from Aran's place, immediately ran very fast. They were worried that Aran would be injured from fighting with the huge snake that attacked them earlier.

When Taeyang and Rumbun arrived, they were shocked by the sight before them.

Aran was sitting on the snake's head.

“Hyung-nim”

Shouted Taeyang.

“Ah you guys, finally come also”

Aran then stood up and explained to his two friends what had happened to him. After that, Aran asked his two friends to take the spirit core of the giant snake.

Deftly, Taeyang and Rumbun immediately carried out the orders from Aran. They immediately split the snake and took the point.

“Hyung-nim, this spirit core class 4!”

Taeyang was very surprised to see this spirit core in his hand. Likewise with Rumbun, he was also shocked to see the spirit core.

“Simply this snake is very big and great, it turns out this snake class 4”

Rumbun added.

“Hyung-nim, this is his spirit core”

Taeyang then gave the spirit core to Aran. But Aran just glanced at her and was not interested at all.

“For you guys only, I'm not interested”

Aran's reply instantly made Taeyang and Rumbun look at each other.

“Agatih, this is a 4th class spirit core. The price is very expensive, we do not deserve it”

Rumbun's words were immediately cut by Aran.

“I don't need anything like that. It's for you guys, if you keep forcing to give it to me, then I will even give it to the girls”

Aran's answer immediately made the faces of Taeyang and Rumbun Manyun.

Of course they did not accept if this level 4 core was given to the girls.

“Enak once they if receive this, yes I will keep it. Later the results of the exchange will be split two by Rumbun”

Taeyang replied that directly inserted the spirit core into his dimensional space.

Aran just shook his head to see the behavior of these two friends.

“Come we go”

After finishing their conversation, Aran then invited all his friends to go into the depths of the forest. The three of them were unaware that the more they entered the forest, the more danger lurked them.

On the other side of the forest.

The girls also started to enter the inner part of the forbidden forest. Until this second, the organizers of the academy did not know that the protective formation that led to the forbidden forest had been damaged, so that now many students had begun to enter the forbidden forest.

“Namora, why the atmosphere here is so gripping”

Varya asks Namora who is more senior as an academy student. Srikandi and Octavia are also curious about the forest environment that is so gripping. Often there is cold air that blows suddenly and also sometimes the sound of howling animals are very scary.

"I don't know either, because I just entered this forest this time"

Reply Namora who is also curious about the environment of this forest. He felt, during being a student of the new academy this time he entered the forest like this.

“My body creeps”

Srikandi.

“I also”

Octavia added.

They all looked at each other and began to draw closer together.

Now the four of them are walking in the middle of a fairly high weed plant. As far as the eye can see there are only green and brown weeds.

As they were walking, there was a growling sound from behind the weeds.

“What you guys heard it”

Namora said to all her friends.

“Ya we heard it”

The other girls also heard the growling. They tried to figure out the origin of the sound while looking around.

“Arrrrrr’

Not long appeared two wolves that are larger in size than wolves in general. This wolf has a body as big as an adult cow. This wolf has long fangs that rise from mouth to bottom.

Although they walk among the weeds, but they can see the wolf because the size of the animal's body is quite large.

“Galaa”

The girls said together.

“Awoooooo”

“Awoooo”

The two wolves howled very loudly facing the sky.

After he finished howling, the two wolves immediately ran over to where the girls were.

“Lariiiiii”
