"I'm sorry, Eyang Baurekso, it seems like the three of us have been lost since then. We just went around in circles and returned to this place a few times. Can Eyang Baurekso show us the direction to college?" Datuk nan Lapuk who had arrived before Eyang Baurekso immediately asked shamelessly again. Since he had already given up, after several tries he just went around in circles.
Usually he will use a clue through the latitude of a penggang hut or a constellation of kites. But that night the clouds covered the sky so he had trouble determining the direction.
The first reaction that Eyang Baurekso did was to pat his eel. Now he had only understood why the three elders who were supposed to head towards the Clever Sword School had turned around several times to the place where he was guarding the elder Datuk Rajo.
He had previously thought that the three elders had returned several times, because he wanted to make sure that his condition with elder Datuk Rajo was fine. He actually had time to think that they were lost, only that thought he was put aside because the three of them did not ask him if he was lost.
Eyang Baurekso then rose to try to recognize the condition of the forest where he was. After seeing and observing the natural conditions around where he was silent earlier. Now he also just realized the place where he had been sitting, it turned out to be somewhere he had never seen it either.
He started scratching his head before giving an answer.
"I also don't recognize where it is now." Eyang Baurekso answered the question while still scratching his head.
"It's been a long time since I've visited the area around here. In addition, this forest area, probably the part that should not be entered by humans. That's why the forest is so thick. Because no human has ever touched it."
"I just realized now, it looks like we're already in the forbidden forest area."
"What do the elders mean of the forbidden forest?" Elder Datuk Rajo Mustiko who had finished his meditation immediately asked about the forbidden forest called Eyang Baurekso just now.
"Since the first forest is not touched by humans because it is said that this forest is the place of the establishment of a stealth royal palace that controls this area."
"So, it's appropriate that from the beginning I felt the pressure of the power coming from the realm of the demons felt so strong. But thanks to that, I finally found out something very important. I have made sure that inside of this forest there are stealth movements that gather in very large numbers. And strangely enough, the demons that gathered were not just one type of demon, but from various types of demons. It's not a normal thing."
"For if demons of different types gather, then it is a sign that there is a fight between demons. But their current condition is something out of the ordinary. Presumably they are gathering strength to prepare for a massive assault."
"really? Something very surprising. We'd better report this matter to the Sword God immediately. It's likely that the demons we've wiped out just now, are about to return to the middle of the forest to report their duties to their king." Elder Nguyen Poo looked towards elder Datuk Rajo Mustiko who had just explained his findings after exerting sukmo knowledge to ascertain the source of the stealth aura that was so concentrated.
"Truly we will report this incident to the chairman. Because of the possibility of the demons attacking every side of the college just to measure the strength of the college. If that was true and coupled with the findings that elder Datuk Rajo Mustiko knew of then it was likely that very soon they would make a massive attack towards the Thunderbolt Sword College." Elder Baurekso looks so worried about the fate of his college that it is in danger of destruction.
"It is better that elder Baurekso lead the way. I've given up not finding my way back to college." Elder Nguyen Poo scratched his head while smiling wryly.
Eyang Baurekso who heard the elder Nguyen Poo's request only replied with a nod. He then looked up staring at the latitude of the Pengeng hut as a southern reference.
"We should head south first. Because in the south we are easier to pass through. There is a path that leads to Kembang where the Halilintar Sword School is located."
They immediately move quickly jumping between the trees using the science of lightening the body that is already at a high level. They chose the southern path meaning to rotate further away from the path as they chased the demon. But with that they will find a path that can be passed by a pedati or cart used by residents of Juwana and residents of the Yellow Banyu Duchy to the Kembang area where the Halilintar Sword College is located.
In less than half a drink of tea they finally reached the edge of the forest.
"Wait a minute, it seems I heard the movement of the troops in large numbers! Did you hear that too?" Eyang Baurekso, who heard the sounds coming from far away, decided to stop immediately and began sharpening his hearing to ensure his hearing.
"Right, I heard it too. It's heading south a little west." Elder Nguyen Poo chimed in on the words of Eyang Baurekso.
"We'd better check first. In addition, according to Eyang Baurekso the road to the area of Kembang where our troops gathered. Does it not feel strange if the direction of the group of troops is in line with our goal towards the College of Thunder Sword? " Elder Nguyen Poo continues his mission.
"It's a coincidence or indeed the goal of the troops is to go to the Clever Sword Academy. Could it be that the troops under the black Medusa flag will attack?" Elder Datuk nan Lapuk chimed in on the speech of elder Nguyen Poo just now.
We better move more carefully. Do not let them know of our existence.
After they moved quickly and carefully they finally found the origin of the sound that sounded from that distance. A very long human entourage shows troops lined up neatly with complete weapons. By looking at the moving ranks with such a large number, it was certain that Medusa's forces were about to flatten the Thunder Sword School and completely annihilate the entire army under the banner of the Heaven's Sword College.
"Truely it was the flag of the Black Serpent Queen Medusa. They seemed to be exerting full strength to earth the scorched Thunder Sword School." Elder Datuk Rajo Mustiko immediately recognized the flag the troops were carrying moving in the direction they were going. They could be very confident that the troops would attack the Halilintar Sword College, because the path was only heading in one direction, namely the Flower area where their entire college army was located.
"We better get ahead of them before they attack the Thunder Sword School. We must give a pause so that the entire Heaven Sword Force army can make preparations in advance. If the demons who have gathered in the forbidden forest and the entire black Medusa army attack our troops who are in the Thunder Sword College, then a great war will soon erupt." Eyang Baurekso soon realized the danger that would threaten the existence of his college. As quickly as he ran with the other elders, he moved quickly towards the Thunder Sword College ahead of the convoy of Black Medusa's forces.
The faster they ran, meant that the more time the entire Heaven's Volition Sword School army could use to prepare for battle. Which means more lives will be saved.
**
In the Thunderbolt Sword College the battle between the elders against the demons continued. This time the demon continuously attacked the college alternately from different directions.
Blahar!
A flash of light initiated a powerful attack that eventually destroyed the entire existence of the demon and the land as far as more than fifty spears ahead.
The attack came from the Million Slashes Sword stance deployed by someone who jumped high. He was a Sword God who again wanted to once again try the same style. Incidentally the demon was far enough away from the members of the college and was outside the scope of the college. So that the Sword God can freely deploy his manager without fear of harming other members of the college.
Finished doing the Sword God attack immediately approached the members of the college who were on duty on the north side.
"In which direction did the five elders go after the fire demon?" The Sword God asked towards the college members who were on guard in the north. They had seen the five elders move quickly out of the college chasing after the fire demon.
"If you look at the flying fire demon they're after, it's likely they're heading east toward the chairman." One of the students answered.
"What do they think about leaving college in these circumstances?" The Sword God exhaled a deep breath before starting to continue his steps.
Then he went to the elders who had come to help guard the north side.
"I believe the stealth attack from a few weeks ago was aimed at weakening our entire army by exhausting it." The Sword God looked at the elders who looked adorable after several days of sleep deprivation.
"If the stealth objective to weaken us seems to have succeeded the chairman. We're all exhausted." The elder La Patiganna answered the words of the Sword God.
"It seems like it's just the beginning. I suspect Medusa is plotting to re-attack us with her entire army. That's why since a week ago I've been sending out a password to find out the condition of Medusa's forces."
"If they attack this college before Kalingga's forces arrive, it will be very serious."
"Have any of the password telik already sent the chairman's newsletter?" The elder La Patiganna again asked curiously.
"None of them has sent a newsletter. There is no news even. They're like they're lost to the earth."
"Don't they have been wiped out by Medusa's forces, chief?" The elder La Patigana returned in reply.
Hearing the words of the elder of La Patiganna the Sword God could only exhale his long breath while smiling wryly.
