Swordsman Without Friends
Go home.

That morning the air was bright after a few days in the pouring rain.the warm sunshine was felt by all the inhabitants of the Muntilan duchy. today is right on the kliwon tuesday. as has become a tradition, as has become a tradition, every Tuesday the big market kliwon on the outskirts of Muntilan duchy will be much more crowded.Sewon market which means Tuesday kliwon attract traders from outside the region to come looking for profit.

Likewise, the visitors either want to buy something or just want to see the hustle and bustle of the market atmosphere.from the rich to the poor, poor, beggars to pickpockets who are preparing to target the target and of course the duchy soldiers who maintain market security are also there.

A teenage girl dressed in light blue black pants and herding a bundle of cloth on her shoulder is seen sitting on a wooden bench of one of the food stalls located at the end of the market street. a glass of ginger palm sugar following two boiled bananas served on his table.

The food stall was not so big, the table was only three. Each table had two wooden benches facing each other and could be sat by two people each stool. wedang ginger sugar palm was already consumed half. of the shop visitors had filled half the available table, only she was a woman who was another man. almost everyone glanced or smiled in amazement at the girl who was probably only six or seventeen years old.

This young girl when seen is actually not too beautiful, but there is a side that appeals to the opposite sex. such as a natural and innocent elegance. there is no jewelry on his sweet face.even lipstick powder or fragrance that is usually liked by young girls is also not in use.

One boiled banana has moved into his stomach.he smiled cheerfully at the crowd of the Sewon market.The girl understood very well the ins and outs of this market.from anyone who traders and what goods are sold, the girl knows the ins and outs of this market, to the point where people used to trade illicit illicit goods.who was a cheating merchant also who was honest or cheated in trading he knew it all. because for him coming to this market is like going home by himself.

Almost four years ago the girl named Srianah was still a child pickpocket who every day hung around looking for prey. perhaps he would have continued like that until now if only he had not met a sick homeless youth.

If you remember that time, Srianah often smiled to himself.a carefree smile mixed with pain of heart.along with the young man named Pranacitra he had wandered together through many adventures. although his left leg was limping and his body was weak the young man seemed to never know the word fear or give up.

Srianah sighed sadly, he did not know where Pranacitra was now. whether he had become a great person or had a happy family and forgot about it.? whatever it is, Srianah just hopes that wherever Pranacitra is he is always in good condition and safe.

Recollecting the memories of the past made the girl feel a bit of bitterness in her heart.Even wedang ginger sugar palm and banana stew like bitter tasting on her tongue. after paying for food and reusing her caping, Srianah left the food stall.

Along the way through the crowded market Sewon, Srianah felt that someone was following him. A little glance he had understood that the stalkers were none other than some men who visited the food stall earlier. from the beginning Srianah had realized their bad intentions to him.

Although not long ago Srianah came out of his place of study but thanks to his ingenuity and experience during wandering in the jungle martial, he was able to calculate the good bad intentions of someone from the behavior and eyes of the person.

Srianah herself was astonished because she never felt that she was beautiful.Nearly never even dressed up like most teenage girls her age. but strangely during his travels there were only perverted men who made trouble with him.

Although he has a high stock of martial arts, but he is reluctant to get into trouble.for him it is better to step aside from having to play violence to waste his time and energy. by walking through the crowds of people through the many hallways in the market Srianah can get out of there. The girl was stunned for a moment because she only realized that here was the first place she and Pranacitra fought against 'Five Begundal Brewok'.

He took a deep breath knowing that the stalkers had already appeared behind him. ''Sometimes the more we stay away from problems, the more often the difficulty approaches.'' he murmured while turning his body.

''You guys go by the road or do you deliberately follow me.?''

Four young men were indeed the visitors of the food stall earlier.from the same clothes gray short-sleeved can be guessed if they came from a group.

''Haa., ha., miss do not be prejudiced, the four of us just want to get acquainted and make friends..''

''This market area and most of the Muntilan duchy area is our territory from the silat 'Grey Musang'. surely this sweet lady has heard of it, right.?'' answer the person who stands at the front and looks pretty good compared to three other people. Srianah looked at her and then shrugged her shoulders. ''Grey weasel., dear I have never heard that name.sorry too., but I am not a sweet lady and have no intention to get acquainted..'' after a salute the girl turned her body and walked away just like that.

Just because the four young men who claimed to be members of the Grey Weasel silat society were stunned for a moment. when they realized the girl had already passed dozens of steps away.

From his movements can be seen that they only have low-class science. After a bit of forcing themselves to run they can only catch up with him while moving directly against him. Srianah sighed as if regretting something while shaking her head. ''Seems like., you guys do like to make things difficult for others.well what can I do, I've tried to avoid but you guys are forcing me..''

His mouth had not finished speaking but his slender body had already darted forward.The distance between them was adrift by nearly three spears. but with one set foot the girl was already in front of the four besiegers who were flabbergasted by surprise. the science of lightening the body of Srianah was indeed very high. the style of 'Nine Leaves Floating' makes his body like a dry leaf blown by the wind.

If there is a problem coming, Srianah must have chosen to run as far away as possible, but on the contrary, when she decided to fight, Srianah did not want to be held back. in one attack he will use a very strong stance to knock down his opponent.even if necessary the opponent will be made disabled or unable to wake up for several days.

All of that has become a habit since becoming a child pickpocket in the market.attack suddenly, collapse immediately and then disappear as far as possible.if in today's language it may be referred to as 'Efficient and effective action.!'

At a glance, one could only see Srianah knocking down four of his opponents with one single blow, but if there were others who had sharp eyes, it was only the case, he could definitely see at least six or seven punches and kicks that the girl had unleashed.

The movement of the nurse looks simple, but because it is done very quickly and suddenly with the weakest target, four confineers fell down without having time to reply half-stroke goods. Srianah doesn't care if he says he won cunningly for attacking without warning. ''I'm not the one who's looking for it first, if you consider myself a coward for attacking without warning., Chuih., Fuck.!'' srianah sneered while spitting and then flashed away.

Srianah stood dumbstruck in front of a bamboo hut with no occupants who had been rotted and almost collapsed. Inside there were many bitter and sweet memories left behind. only briefly the girl stood there, there, his feet stepped quickly to the back of the cottage.

Not far from the back of the bamboo hut there is a small forest. Behind a large rock and thick shrub there is a mound marked with a stone tombstone. there is no writing whatsoever that explains who the person buried in the grave was, but Srianah knew this is where Ki Suta his teacher lay forever.

The girl knelt down to pray and when she was done, Srianah felt something strange. ''This tomb is quite hidden, also I have not visited for a long time.but why the condition is quite well maintained as just cleaned..''

Srianah was stunned, her heart felt turbulent. ''Besides me, only he knows this tomb, who has cleaned this tomb must be him. Srianah turned to one direction when she heard footsteps coming.

''Pranacitra., did you come.?'' his screams were hopeful.but Srianah was immediately disappointed to see the person who came was not as he hoped.in fact he was increasingly upset to know that the problem on the edge of the Sewon market this morning apparently still continues.

The one who came to the place was not only four people who had faces and hands his legs swollen and broken until he had to be on a stretcher, but there were more than two dozen people dressed in short-sleeved gray with faces full of anger present. a thin, fifties-old man with a thin face and cunning sharp eyes walked at the very front.

The newcomers stopped just a few steps from the front of Srianah. Some of them moved to lock the girl. From behind the capingnya disciples 'Gembel Sakti Mata White' is glancing around her. there is no way back for him. ''Damn, how did these people find me.?'' his mind was astonished to be mixed with annoyance.

''Heeh young girl., you must be wondering why we found you.?'' asking the old man who was the leader of the mob seemed to know what was being thought of by Srianah.

''Huhm., not a single human being can hide from our pursuit. because the silat 'Grey Devil' society is indeed experts looking for traces of fugitives. Haa., uh.!''
