SURO BLEDEK
Ch. 297 Underground States part 3
"I'm sorry, master swordsman, our suspicion of both warriors may have made you uncomfortable" La Tongeq tried to begin explaining the reason why they were about to be taken into custody.
"For sure!" Geho similarly replied in an annoyed tone without letting La Tongeq stop talking.
"Check, uhuk!" Suro immediately coughed at the same Geho reply that was so honest.
"Geho alike, let uncle La Tongeq sakti finish speaking."
"Just let him before also not use his mind while speaking. He thinks what we are, without asking any wrongdoing, immediately gives orders to send them to jail."
"But La Tongeq's uncle has apologized, please uncle continue his explanation."
Without responding to Geho's similar vexation protests, Suro immediately cut in and asked La Tongeq sakti to continue his explanation.
The same Geho who had felt in the seal for a very long time, certainly did not want to experience again such an event. That's why he moved quickly to prevent him from being put in prison, even without asking Suro for permission.
La Tongeq sakti then began to tell the reason to the two of them.
The reason he pointed out was the attack of dark creatures who tried to steal holy water that is used as a source of drinking water can also be made an antidote to the poison of darkness for the people who inhabit the cave that giant.
But they do it indirectly but by using human bait that has not been exposed to darkness, entqh how the humans came from but the humans who were used as bait did not have horns as they usually see.
For the nature in which they live has been given a protection magic seal that cannot be penetrated by beings who have been poisoned by darkness in conditions already controlled by the Dark God.
According to La Tongeq Sakti every time humans who managed to infiltrate will take and give the holy water to the creatures of darkness who deliver it. By drinking holy water it makes them able to have intelligence.
Even if their bodies were eaten by other dark creatures, then they also benefited from that holy water.
Suro immediately understood the events he had seen before, the dark creatures he had encountered were able to speak. In addition they have no horns, although fangs and sharp teeth adorn their faces.
"Usually the humans who are used as bait have a high ability. That's why we were able to arrest the intruders" continued the man chosen by all the residents who inhabited the place.
La Tongeq sakti besides being the leader, he is also known as the strongest swordsman who became the protector of the place.
"Sorry uncle, the magic seal that uncle mentioned earlier made me so curious. The existence of magic that had protected this place, seemed to be closely related to something I was looking for.
Since the purpose created the magic seal that protected this place, it actually aimed to protect the small object from being taken by the accomplices of the Dark God. It also answered why the dark creatures kept trying to break through this place.
I'm sure their main purpose is not just to take the holy water that uncle said. But the main goal was to take out a small archa the size of my hand made from a light green jade. That statue we call the name of the ancient relic."
Suro then tells about ancient relics and their uses. He also recounts their real coming not from the world they are in, but from another world.
Suro also tells of the main purpose of their arrival is to pursue and try to finish off the God of darkness.
Hearing the story from Suro, La Tongeq was quite surprised.
"So so the full story of the Dark God, and I did not expect that this same Geho Swordsman used to be a place for the Dark God. And it's been sealed in this world for thousands of years."
Seeing the strength of the two of them made Suro's speech feel reasonable to be able to fight the Dark God. That's why La Tongeq trusted Suro. Moreover, from the beginning he did not hurt his men and relented, even if they wanted to be defeated in just one breakthrough.
"Regarding the ancient relic that master swordsman mentioned the possibility that I knew about it, the man added.
La Tongeq sakti somehow became respectful to the young man in front of him. Regardless he does have a power that is indeed very terrible.But his attitude from the beginning made him interested.
No more suspicion of him. For if he were an intruder, no one would be able to stop the swordsman's two steps. If they want the holy water they keep, including himself
Therefore, after hearing the story from Suro he did not cover up what he knew.
It was seen that several tens of men were guarding the place heavily armed. They were only equivalent to first-rate warriors. They keep something that is precious to them, holy water.
Because of the large crystal hanging in the sky cave dripping slowly water that falls and gathers in a natural container. The collected water is called La Tongeq sakti as holy water. The container spilled and flowed down forming a sizable pool.
The guards upon seeing the leader came immediately burst out.
"Who are they chief, we've never seen him?" One of the guards asked curiously.
With the same Geho appearance that looks striking, it certainly makes them all full of question marks.
"They are guests of this country." La Tongeq sakti explained to the guards of the place just a glance. After that he took Suro and Geho together to the place of the holy water container guarded by dozens of men.
"This place is so heavily guarded, how can you still be stolen?" Suro asked La Tongeq sakti, after seeing for himself the place was not easy to come to.
"Of course they don't steal in this place. But they steal from the water supplies the inhabitants."
"Maybe you wouldn't believe it if thanks to this water we were always healthy and able to live a long life. Let's see how old I am?"
After hearing the man's words and questions, Suro began to look at him more thoroughly. He saw the look of the man and his stature was quite stocky.
"According to my estimation uncle is no older than forty-five."
"Hahahahaha.thank you for the assessment. Believe it or not if I'm a hundred and fifty years old."
"Huh?" Suro gawked at the man's words.
"That's a natural thing, for example, the man," La Tongeq said, pointing and calling one of the guards standing near the entrance.
"How old do you think this fragrant La Jambu is?"
The man called out looked like a young man in his twenties.
"If you look at it from the looks of it around a young man in his twenties. But by the comparison that uncle mentioned, it was likely that he was about fifties more."
"Haha...! Try to mention your age La Jambu fragrant," said La Tongeq Sakti turned to the man with a smile.
"To be exactly seventy-two years old, kisanak."
"That's amazing. It's something really incredible." Suro who heard their words was quite gobsmacked, because it felt unreasonable.
"Then how old is this swordsman who looks so dashing, I became so curious?" La Tongeq sakti asked towards the same Geho standing beside Suro towering around one spear. His body is full of muscles with an unusual face, will certainly make it difficult for them to guess his age.
"Is this warrior over seventy years old?"
With his heavy voice Geho similarly answered La Tongeq sakti's question, thus making the man speechless did not continue his speech which was so proud because it looked youthful.
"If in all, it could be said that I have been over ten thousand years old."
Gluey!
La Tongeq sakti immediately gulped upon hearing Geho's reply similarly. There was awkwardness for a while, before the man finally continued his words.
"Well, before I show you the archa swordsman called the ancient relic, you better take a closer look at the place where we kept the holy water we were talking about."
