The Fire Dragon Sword
The Golden City of Wentira IV
Celebes mainland is one of the land of dozens of other land in the Nuswantoro region. Slightly different from the flatter Jawata, Celebes stretches out beautiful mountains that are still untouched.
Some places even tend to be mysterious and unenthusiastic because they are shrouded in quite a strange power. One of them was the lompobattang mountain, where the sky Dragon Sect stood which was the Arung sect was located.
Mount Lompobattang which is very rarely exposed to sunlight makes this place seem haunted and scary. A very dangerous steep road makes this place very desirable by almost all high class warriors though.
Deep in the forest of Lompobattang which is the most mysterious forest in the Celebes land, precisely in a valley close to the waterfall stands some buildings built with sophisticated and complicated designs.
The grandeur of the building is very striking with the remote Lompobattang forest. With his Mist Sword style, the Sky Dragon Sect became the second largest white flow sect under the Fire Clan, while the black stream was led by the blood red Slope Sect with its Demon sword heirloom.
For several hundred years Celebes martial world tends to be flat and there is no striking conflict but since the emergence of the word paraton appears in the land of Jawata, they began to elbow each other to race to get the book of knowledge.
Only the Sky Dragon Sect had no ambition to obtain it.
"Have you heard from Arung?". A middle-aged man asked one of his confidants.
"Before the chairman, it might be a little difficult to find a fire Dragon heirloom user. Do I have to send an envoy to look for him?". Said Mangge, one of the 7 strongest warriors of the Sky Dragon Sect who was also the vice chairman of the Sect.
Malewa shook his head slowly "It is too much of a cost to send the messenger back, not to mention that we are preoccupied with the aggressiveness of the movement of the blood red Slope. We'll wait a few more days". Malewa took a deep breath, some time recently the mainland Celebes again churned because of the emergence of the book Paraton.
"How are the preparations for our meeting with Manca Fire?".
"All in accordance with what we have planned the chairman, after the appearance of the red full moon they will immediately visit us to discuss about the Paraton and the blood red Slope".
"Make sure everything goes smoothly, they're the only alliance that can suppress the blood-red Slope".
" Good chairman". Answer Mangge slowly.
"What about the cloud fog forest? have you heard why the blood-red Slope sent its powerful swordsman there? What are they really looking for?". Malewa asked quietly, she only remembered a few days ago assigning Mangge to investigate the news.
" To this day I haven't managed to get the Chief's information, but they must have sent a pair of blood warriors to lead the army into the cloud fog forest definitely isn't a small thing".
"A pair of blood warriors, huh?". Malewa closed her eyes. He knows very well the blood swordsman. They were among the most feared warriors on the mainland Celebes even Malewa was hesitant to defeat them both.
Perhaps only the Elders of the Fire Manca could currently keep up with them.
"Is this related to the fairytale town of Wentira chief? because it is said that the mysterious city is in a forest of cloud fog".
"I don't know, but maybe that's what they're looking for. What is important at this time is the alliance with Manca Fire because only with them do we have a chance of winning against the blood red Slope".

It had been a few days that Celebes' ark sailed the vast sea and some days that Sabrang also sprawled in his room. Drunk sea makes it unable to move at all because his stomach immediately nausea if moving.
What Sabrang experienced can be understood because the big waves always hit their ship. If the Ark of Celebes was not made with high science, it would have been destroyed long ago.
Wardana was so amazed at the ship he was on. He didn't stop walking around while taking notes on his scroll. He planned to build such a ship for the Malwageni later.
"Are you busy, Duke?". Ciha suddenly appeared behind him.
"Not really, I just admire this ship, its design and construction are right in detail. Looks like this ship was deliberately made to sail the vast ocean".
"So many mysteries about paratons, isn't this very interesting?". Ciha approached Wardhana and sat down in front of him.
"I'd rather call it scary than interesting. If this ship was built with the science of the fire would it not be terrible to fall into the wrong hands?".
"Then why are you still looking for that place if you think it's terrible?". Siha scrunched her forehead. He did not understand the problem because he did not enter the secret room of the northern ice footprint.
" There's something I need to tell you first before we get to Celebes Land". Wardhana unrolled the scroll and started telling her what she found and she expected.
Ciha was already amazed at all Wardhana plans in Dieng but this time she felt Wardhana was so master of the situation with only very few clues. His speed of reading the situation made Ciha think that Wardhana would be a very scary enemy if he became an opponent.
"So the appearance of the paratons is a red sky warrior's plan to lure the warriors to find the lake of fire?".
"That's my guess in the meantime, that's why I need your help to unravel the mystery of the fire-fighting lake. One that is certain that the opponent we face not only has high canuragan science but also extraordinary intelligence". Answer Wardhana.
"Did you feel weird about all this?". Tanya Ciha was curious.
"Any?". Wardhana scrunched her forehead.
"The note left by Ken Panca seems to have been written in the hidden city of Wentira. I thought if I became a resident of Wentira, would I be so receptive to outsiders to enter the golden city? what if Ken Panca divulges the location of Wentira to the martial world?".
"You mean Panca was deliberately invited to Wentira?".
"I'm not sure but there must be something they're talking about. I began to think there was a connection between the Fire Lake and the Dwipa Trah".
"You're right, I don't think that far. It was indeed very strange if they received a warrior from the Jawata mainland who was completely unknown. They seem to have known each other for a long time, has anyone been missed by me?". Wardhana went back to reading the scroll.
"Whatever it looks like the answer we can find if we managed to enter Wentira, do you already have a clue where the location of the Wentira?". Ask Ciha.
Wardhana shook her head softly "Just this picture of the forest that Panca wrote on her note and what this strange picture is". Appoint Wardhana on Ken Panca's note.
Ciha frowned as she stared at the picture. It was like he had seen that picture.
"Water, big river and bridge? like I've seen this picture, but where?". He murmured in his heart.
"Is there anything you found?". Wardhana looked at Ciha.
"I'm not sure sir but I feel like I've seen this picture somewhere". Ciha still kept trying to remember until the sound of Arung shocked them.
"We're almost there". Shouted Arung at the two of them.
Ciha and Wardhana stared at each other before their eyes were fixed on the Land before them.
A land that was very beautiful but like storing something scary.
" So Celebes really exists?". Wardhana stared at the astonished view before him. He closed his eyes as the beautiful sound of Celebes's distinctive Taong bird filled his ears. The sound of birds linking each other as if to warn Wardhana and the others not to set foot on the mainland Celebes.
"We better get ready, my gut feeling is that there's something really scary waiting for us in that forest". Wardhana gulped. Although he did not have a high level of canuragan science yet he could feel a force pressing down on his body.
On the other hand Linga opened her eyes as her body felt a huge force pressing down on her. It took a long time for the phallus to be able to move its body because of that pressure.
"It seems to have arrived". Murmured Lingga while rising from his seat and heading towards the deck of the ship.
" It seems you feel it too, right?". Sapa Lingga when he saw Sabrang and the others had already arrived at the ship's deck.
"Observe your heart, son, I feel an evil aura from within the forest". Anom said in Sabrang's mind.
"I know, these eyes kind of react to something in there". Sabrang rubbed the drops of blood coming out of his eyes.
"This is the land of Celebes, where I came from and some warriors who attacked us the other day. It still took me a day's journey to get to the lompobattang mountain, where my sect is". Arung opened the deck door of the ship and jumped down. " Let's go". Arung took a deep breath, he had left his homeland long enough.
