The Fire Dragon Sword
The Majasari War
"You want to go nduk?". Sumbi spoke to Mentari who was preparing to leave.
Mentari nodded slowly, there was a sense of hesitation in him to meet Sabrang with his current body condition. As a user of the body's sugar melting study Mentari is now filled with toxins that are bound to its inner energy. His life will now end like a solitary Sumbi in a remote place.
With his current condition extinct already hope hope in Sabrang. As a young girl who is just the first to feel in love Mentari can not hide her despair. But he had made up his mind to serve the man who had saved his life.
"I have promised myself to serve the Prince, if the Prince succeeds in reclaiming the Malwageni, maybe I will visit the teacher and settle down with the teacher". Mentari tried to hold her tears out of her eyelids.
"You're pushing yourself too hard". Sumbi shook his head slowly. As a fellow woman Sumbi understood that Mentari was devastated by her current state.
"Then where are you going to look for him?".
"I don't know teacher, I'll try to find Mr. Wardhana first and then figure out the next plan".
Mentari bowed his head saluting his teacher.
"Get yourself both teacher and thank you for everything".
Sumbi just nodded while looking at the departure of Mentari.
"I don't know what's going to happen but it looks like you're destined to help the boy control the Fire Dragon".

The sora cow continued to linger in the forest, his gaze occasionally looking back as if he did not want anyone to know where it was headed.
His steps came to a halt after seeing some huts purposely built under lush trees making it difficult to see from afar.
Two people dressed in all black greeted him while bowing their heads in salute.
"Welcome, sora". One of the soldiers greeted him. The ox sora nodded softly while smiling at the two people who greeted her.
"I want to meet Mr. Wardhana and Mr. Wijaya".
"Okay sir, please follow me". One of the soldiers pointed the way at Lembu sora.
The sora cow walks while paying attention to the surrounding circumstances.
"So here they're reshaping the south wind forces". He murmured in his heart.
Thanks to Wardhana's negotiations with the kingdom of Saung galah some time ago finally Saung galah allowed them to live in a forest located in the Duchy of Ligung.
Wijaya turned the forest into a hiding place as well as a place to train the remaining soldiers and still loyal to Malwageni.
The soldier stopped at a hut that looked the largest of the others and let him in.
"Mr Wardhana's inside". The soldier lowered his head before leaving the Oxen sora to return to guard.
"Oh brother please sit down we are waiting for you". Wijaya and Wardahan welcome Lembu sora together.
"So what information did you get Sora?". Said Wardahan after the three of them sat down.
"Since the news of the black Devil decided to withdraw from the Majasari martial world it seemed a little restraint because practically only the southern Poison Sect and the Devil's Golok supported them now while the Valley of the skulls had betrayed first.
Wijaya turned towards Wardhana who seemed to be thinking.
"Do you know where the troops are headed?" Wijaya asked the Oxen sora.
"I'm not sure sir but it looks like they are heading for the Duchy of Warangasem, Waringin and Dayu geni. That's my estimate after seeing their direction sir".
"The three duchies were some distance away from Rogo geni, if they intended to avoid Saung galah's suspicion by breaking up the troops seemed too far away if they had to move at any time. Rogo geni will first be conquered before they arrive, what Axis is really planning". Wijaya closed his eyes while occasionally turning towards Wardhana who still remained silent.
"What are our next actions?" Wijaya finally asked Wardhana who had just been silent.
Wardhana looked a little surprised after getting a question arrived Wijaya.
"Gentleman ever heard of the Tactics of War Play troops (Author was inspired by the art of war Sun Tzu, one of the best Chinese strategists of earlier times)?" Vijaya scrunched his forehead. He had heard of such a war ploy but only a glimpse of it because the tactics of war were lost along with its creator who died in the war between two kingdoms hundreds of years ago.
"The army's rotating diasat?". Wijaya asked Wardhana for an explanation.
"The troop swivel is an ancient art of war that is now rarely known to people, I only heard a few times during my escape. The swivel squads will sacrifice something they have to get a big win. If Majasari had properly used this tactic then they would have sacrificed the Duchy of Rogo geni for the sake of a great victory against Saung Galah". Wardhana said slowly.
"Explain to me as clearly as possible". Wijaya seemed dissatisfied with Wardhana's explanation.
"They pulled some troops out of Rogo geni some time ago to lure us in and Saung galah attacked Rogo geni. Saung galah's forces will be centred on the dikeraton due to the celebration of their crown princess. When we see the gap that Majasari left in the Duchy of Rogo geni then we will not waste the opportunity to seize the most important duchy of Mawlageni and the axis has predicted that Saung galah will help us.
All dukes of Saung galah will surely be present to congratulate the crown princess so that the guard in the duchy in Saung galah will be loose. At that time the Majasari troops that Sora saw scattered will attack the duchy of the duchy. If Majasari managed to capture many duchies then Saung galah would be shaken.
When Saung Galah has realized the trap, they will not have time to deploy troops to help because we do not know which duchy Majasari targets.
"So the Taxi used the stratagem?". Said Wijaya while staring at Wardhana curious.
"I'm not sure sir but some of the movements that the Axis showed at some time are almost the same as the Swivel Troop strategy". Wardhana speaks while massaging his forehead, a habit from the past if you are thinking hard.
Wijaya took a slow breath, though, he did not expect if the plan they made so far can be read by Axis and if the axiom plan succeed not only Saung galah will be destroyed but also they will be increasingly difficult to seize the Malwageni.
"Can't you handle it?". Wijaya still hopes in the person before him who is nicknamed the sleeping Dragon of the Malwageni.
"I'm not sure sir but there's one plan we can execute". Wardhana paused for a moment while closing her eyes before continuing.
"But we must seek approval from the Prince and the kingdom of Saung galah because my plan this time is very dangerous for both us and Saung galah".
"Do you know where the Prince is right now?" Wijaya looked at Lembu sora.
"What I heard from our teliksandi is that the prince was seen around Alas roban a few days of master's practice".
"Quick send someone to meet the prince and talk to him and then send a message to Mada to send an envoy here, we don't have much time to think. Any risk from your plan we have to do before it's too late".
"Okay, sir, I'll send a messenger immediately to find the prince". The ox sora lowered her head.
"Which I still do not understand which duchy they will attack first, there are dozens of duchies in Saung galah. Ahhh my head is about to break thinking about this matter". Wardhana grunts annoyed.
"Believe in your own abilities Wardhana, this time you are appointed directly Prince to lead this mission and I hope this will be the beginning of our victory before we recapture Malwageni". Vijaya held Wardhana's shoulder and gave him some encouragement.
