SAVIOR
The White Eagle Sword

"It is good that you are satisfied with this gift of mine..." Zeus laughed out. Asrul smiled awkwardly, he did not understand the reason Zeus gave his personal items to Asrul even though the Lotus family was indebted to Gus Mukhlas and Asrul. It was just that because Zeus' position was so high in the Lotus family, there was nothing Faisal could say.

Faisal gave Gus Mukhlas more gold coins, Gus Mukhlas did not count them but knew there were at least a thousand gold pieces inside.

"This amount of money will not be enough to repay the Lotus family to Imam Gus Mukhlas, one day the Lotus family will help Imam Gus Mukhlas when needed." Faisal still felt that the gift he gave was too little, Asrul smiled faintly when he heard it while Gus Mukhlas said there was no debt between the Lotus family and himself.

Asrul knew that Faisal was not being generous here, but Faisal felt that his life was worth more than a thousand or ten thousand gold pieces.

The debt of life can only be repaid with other lives. Indeed this was the hallmark of those who came from noble families so Asrul was not too surprised.

The next morning Gus Mukhlas and Asrul said goodbye, Faisal still tried to hold the two longer but Gus Mukhlas explained he had an important task in the city of Mallorca. Hearing that Zeus let the two go and asked Faisal not to try to restrain them again.

When Gus Mukhlas and Asrul had been outside the city, Gus Mukhlas said they had to move faster because they had delayed the trip for some time. Both run fast using the science of lightening the body, the speed of both is not inferior to riding a horse that is running fast.

The two continued on their way to the city of Mallorca.

Several days passed since Gus Mukhlas and Asrul parted ways with Faisal. The two passed through several towns and villages but did not touch him as he continued to move at high speed.

Gus Mukhlas could see that during these few days the science of lightening Asrul's body had increased again, besides that the stamina that his disciple had seemed to exceed the stamina he had.

The two would run from sunrise to sunset and only stopped to eat for a moment. At night, Asrul will practice breathing and physical exercise vigorously. Asrul even increased his cultivation by two to three hours each day.

Asrul realizes his way of training is at risk of hurting himself but after the experience with Faisal, he feels he is not strong enough to help Gus Mukhlas. His ability is lacking. If Zeus had not shown up and helped them, Gus Mukhlas would not have been as good as he is now.

"I must become stronger as soon as possible!" that was how Asrul determined that every time he started his training, he wanted to quickly improve the quality of his cultivation before he turned 25.

Gus Mukhlas could feel the growth speed of Asrul's strength and he could only be stunned. Gus Mukhlas just reminded that Asrul did not forget to practice his silat also not only increase physical strength.

"There's no need to rush, you're still so young. As long as you train well, then you will become a great fighter in the future." Gus Mukhlas.

Asrul understood, Gus Mukhlas was worried that he would be like Gus Mukhlas. Because Gus Mukhlas wanted to be strong as soon as possible, he was harmed by someone and received serious internal injuries that affected his future as a fighter.

It's just that Gus Mukhlas doesn't know the reason Asrul is trying to become strong as quickly as possible is also related to him. Asrul requires a high ability if you want to treat Gus Mukhlas until fully recovered.

"Teacher's glad you're training so hard but the fighter has to remember his body also needs rest..." Gus Mukhlas was obviously worried, during the run every morning until sunset, often Asrul ran while reading a book.

In this new life Asrul is indeed interested in many new sciences that he has never learned in his previous life. Among all that, Asrul is most interested in the science of medicine. You could say there is also an effect of his desire to treat Gus Mukhlas.

One afternoon on the way, Asrul could see a great river before them. The day before Gus Mukhlas had said the two had to cross several rivers on their way to Mallorca.

"We will go to the little village, where there will be people who rent boats to cross the river." Gus Mukhlas pointed to a small village that both of them could see from where they stood.

On the other hand, Asrul actually frowned, "Teacher, don't you feel something is wrong?"

Gus Mukhlas was a little surprised by Asrul's question but when he saw the river before them once again, Gus Mukhlas caught Asrul's intent.

"Surprisingly, there should be many boats sailing across the river." murmured Gus Mukhlas quietly.

Gus Mukhlas and Asrul enter the village, both of whom discover that the village is so crowded with residents, most of whom are merchants carrying freight trains.

"Teacher, it seems like something happened." Asrul Brisks. Gus Mukhlas nodded slowly, he could see these merchants. Usually the merchants like them would not stay for long somewhere, other than that both of them could listen to the merchants complaining about having been stuck for quite a long time in this village.

"We'll find out what happened by coming to the harbor." Gus Mukhlas took Asrul directly to the port.

Gus Mukhlas can see many boats and boats that are usually rented are now parked neatly in the harbor. Sad faces decorate the faces of the ship owners, they look lethargic and lost spirit.

"Who is Teacher looking for?" asrul asked as he realized Gus Mukhlas kept turning his head as if looking for someone.

"An old friend." answered Gus Mukhlas briefly.

This is not the first time Gus Mukhlas came to this village, every time he went to Mallorca, people would stop by this village including Taymiyyah though. That's why Gus Mukhlas knows one boat owner who is his subscription.

Gus Mukhlas planned to get the information both needed, especially about the reason the owners of the boat and the ship refused to sail.

"Oh! a fighter! Haven't seen you in a long time." A grandfather greets Gus Mukhlas from a distance.

"Uncle seems to be healthy." Gus Mukhlas smiled at Grandpa.

Every time you want to pass this river, Gus Mukhlas always uses the services of this grandfather. Even though the grandfather wore simple clothes, he was one of the biggest ship entrepreneurs in the village.
