SATRIO.
CH 118S

A total lunar eclipse begins, the entire umbral shadow of the earth falls over the moon, so that the sun, earth and moon are exactly on the same line.

The celestial phenomenon that occurs because part or all of the moon's surface is covered by the shadow of the earth causes the moon to look blood red from the balcony of the Abisatya family residence.

The moon is shining on the earth Pakualaman in silence.

Pandji and his entire family looked up and looked in the same direction. The place where the moon shows its beauty. A place where God shows His power over the universe.

"Don't you think all that stuff should happen tonight, Dad?" ask Pandji suddenly.

"Father felt nothing but the aura of the life of everyone here, probably because the calamity in question happened a day sooner" answered Ayahanda Pandji calmly.

"That means the ancient prophecies and dates are wrong?"

"Not really .. not completely wrong but also not one hundred percent right."

"What are such possibilities applicable to the child in the prophecy as well as the devil's magic book, Father?" Pandji scratched his head, hoping his father's answer could satisfy his feelings.

The handsome young man who was only seventeen years old did not want to get involved any further with the strange happenings in his world. He was thinking about living a quiet life and becoming richer from now on so that he could laze around later on.

His mind is full of business plans. Pandji wants to have the largest business place engaged in weapons for martial arts, heirlooms, mystical objects such as mustika stones, medicinal herbs to provide energy for those who need help.

Aswanta and team will be part of running his personal unique store business plan.

Pandji's father glanced at his son who was looking at the moon with a different view. "There is no harm in guarding against all possibilities. Even though tonight is safe, we don't know what's going to happen tomorrow!"

Pandji breathed heavily, "If we can get through tonight, won't the next nights be any easier?"

"We can't predict or assume anything that hasn't happened yet, Mom!"

The moon is getting red like blood. However, the air feels normal does not hurt the skin. There was no flow of mana, no aura of darkness present around Pandji.

"Alright, the eclipse is almost complete and there are no strange signs that appear unless the night becomes too quiet. Can we read the magic book now?"

"The stamps installed by Oma Dina still stand firmly around the house with a fairly wide range, so it is natural that there is no occult sound from subtle creatures. They are a long distance away from us" explained Ayahanda Pandji calmly. "It looks like your friends can go on a break after this. We're going to the library together!"

"Hm .. You can take Mahesa and Tirta to rest, maybe there will be no strange events tonight" said Pandji flatly.

"I heard earlier about the ancient book, can I come read it? There may be magic I can learn!"

Pandji turned his head, looking at Aswanta with a look of pity.

I certainly can't read it, let alone you friend!

"There are many books about magic in the court, you can read and ask Pakde Noto to teach," said Pandji lightly. "You just set your time for practice, just match it with Mahesa and Tirta's schedule!"

"I want something a little special like red lightning magic.at least the blue ones don't matter either." Aswanta looked at Pandji cengengesan. "Murid wants to learn directly from you, Master!"

The corner of Pandji's lips twitched, "I'm afraid you're dead from running out of mana while studying it. To control lightning it takes a lot of energy, you better learn from the basics first!"

"Am I talented? Compared to Mahesa who had a magic shield and also Tirta with a wave sword. "Without an heirloom sword from you, I am no different than the knights from Hargo Baratan who just joined the Son of Ganendra."

"You are indeed not talented in martial arts," Pandji said with a monotonous expression. "You're the kind of person who talks too much!"

"Then what can I do if becoming a knight is not possible?" chase Aswanta disappointed. He did not expect Pandji not to support him to be more empowered.

Pandji scratched his cheek before replying, "We'll talk business after all this is completely done!"

Aswanta almost shouted, his hearing felt wrongly received Pandji's sentence. "Business? What the hell, buddy? What can I do by just talking? To tempt a man's wife I have no looks and no abilities!"

"Sell mustika stones, heirlooms and other mystical objects!" pandji answered, he was glad to leave because the lunar eclipse had passed.

The night was still bright and very bright by the full moon that had just been covered in the earth's shadow. All eyes looked in amazement. They also breathed more freely, as there was no dark aura squeezing the chest.

Pandji leaves the balcony, this time actually walking to the library with Mika and her family, while Aswanta and the others go to the living room to celebrate the quiet conditions by playing games together.

It turned out that the night of Satan's glory was not as scary as they had imagined. Not to be confused with seventeen years ago when Pandji was born, at midnight with thunderstorms and windstorms struck Pakualaman.
