The Fire Dragon Sword
The Battle Begins
Kerihun Forest is a forest located on the south side of the Malwageni Palace which is also where the village of Trowulan is located.
The atmosphere of a very dense forest, plus almost all surrounded by ravines makes this forest the safest hiding place for anyone who runs away.
But this time, Axis seemed to think unusual, he actually wanted to use the most difficult place to fight as their last battle.
"The sky's power to pass through the ferocious ocean?" sabrang asked confused after hearing Paksi's words.
"Right, your Majesty, I learned this tactic from Wardhana some time ago and it's very interesting. This will help us a lot this time because what Wardhana is pouring in this tactic is impossible to read by the opponent.
Everyone will think to find an open place and has been mastered to be a battleground especially if the opponent is as strong as Masalembo but this time Wardhana's tactics seem desperate by attacking enemy areas whose terrain is not we master.
But that's where Wardhana's genius lies, he can turn weakness into a strength no opponent would have expected. This tactic seems to be prepared for Masalembo and must be admitted now he is far above the servant" replied Paksi slowly.
The axe unrolled the scroll in his hand and showed it to Sabrang and the White Fox.
"Like not, their strengths will obviously urge us and that is the weakness we will turn into strength. Bring them here and this point will be the center of our plan and the queen's wrestling that will end it" Paksi said.
"Goddess?" Sabrang scrunched his forehead.
"Sorry late servant Your Highness," Tungga Dewi and Mentari appeared suddenly.
Sabrang nodded with a small smile.
"I'm sorry if I'm troublesome, what about your content?" ask Sabrang slowly.
"Hamba is fine, Your Majesty, please do not worry," replied Tungga Dewi while bowing his head.
"Your task this time will be a little heavy and dangerous, I hope you keep putting your content first and do not push yourself too much" said Sabrang who was replied with a nod to Tungga Dewi.
The axi then explained the plan in detail to them while pointing at some decisive point at the time of tomorrow's fight.
"Our advantage this time is that the opponent is much stronger, so it is not difficult to draw them here, I hope all remember his position because of one small mistake then all will be destroyed," say Paksi then.
"Are you sure this is gonna really work?" The White Fox made sure again, he did not want if the Goddess Tungga or anyone sacrificed for something in vain.
Axis shook his head slowly, he turned towards the White Fox with a sour face.
"I'm not a swordsman but I know a little about presence. What I'm afraid is that Laeswara realized is that around here it was prepared to open up the dimensional space and lock it up, that's all that still bothers me to this day" Paksi replied softly.
"The fire dragon should have no problem with that because its unique energy is able to disguise any energy, does he not learn at all?" said an old man holding a five-year-old.
"Mpu Sedayu, a mysterious figure who to this day I don't know who his true identity is, please accept my respect," the White Fox lowered its bow in reverence.
"You are an adult boy, but it seems you have not been able to master the cleaver of my creation," replied Mpu Sedayu.
"Grandfather's mockery?" Sabrang turned to the White Fox for an explanation.
"Just like that child, I was taken care of by Mpu Sedayu when I woke up in the middle of the forest with empty memories. He was the one who taught me the science of kanuragan and gave this heirloom machete as a gift.
But there is something strange with him, almost all of his students have a high level of science including Arjuna but he can not use any style," said the White Fox with a laugh.
"You still have that question? I just don't want to jump into the martial world, since my father died I've been determined to be an heirloom maker in order to help warriors who still have a conscience.
You seem to have forgotten my main teaching, White Fox, don't know much or you will be killed" replied Mpu Sedayu with a friendly smile.
All gasped in shock at Sedayu's remark, how could a weak grandfather who according to the White Fox did not have any kind of canoeing could say kill with his relaxed face and friendly smile.
"There is something that the old man hid," said the Fire Dragon.
"You sure?" ask Sabrang.
"I don't know, but since his arrival I've been restless by something in his body" replied the Fire Dragon.
Ken Panca then broke the silence due to Sedayu's remarks and explained his plan to trap the world leaders in that place to Mpu Sedayu.
Mpu Sedayu was seen thinking for a moment while nodding his head before turning to Mentari who happened to be near him.
"Miss, can you help me hold this kid for a second? he seems to be too forced to practice to fall asleep," Pinta Mpu Sedayu slowly.
Mentari nodded slowly, she picked up the boy and carried him.
When Mentari carried the child, his vision was dark and like spinning.
Slowly but surely he saw a middle-aged man standing on the edge of the abyss holding a jet-black sword with a Twin Dragon in its hilt. Dressed in all-black clothes with a face covering, he stood under the light of the full moon that night, among the bodies of the martial world warriors from the various streams that he managed to kill.
The drops of blood at the tip of his sword eyes looked increasingly reddened by the full moon. Although he had managed to kill the strongest warriors of the martial world at the moment, there was no happy look on his face.
The huge aura that overflowed from his body could not cover his aged face.
He looked at the sky while taking a deep breath, as if blaming the sky for what happened that bloody night.
A swordsman who managed to survive despite being seriously injured stared in admiration at the middle-aged man before him who held the title of Devil sword.
"With the science of kanuragan that you have, it seems only the time can defeat you, Mr. Mahesa," said the swordsman respectfully.
"Nearly a hundred years I tried to be strong to stop the destruction of the martial world in the prophecy, I did not think I was the one who triggered the destruction, what an irony," said Mahesa lirih.
"You I will let live to bear witness to how terrible the twin books of the sword of Pengilon are. This book must be buried with me and that stupid prophecy or else there will be another Mahesa who will appear" the middle-aged man said slowly.
"Who is he?" Mentari sharpened his eyes to look at the figure standing on the pile of corpses.
Mentari suddenly gasped in shock when he felt the energy of the Fire Dragon enter his body.
He opened his eyes and found himself in Sabrang's lap.
"Hey are you okay?" ask Sabrang worriedly.
Mentari looked puzzled as he nodded slowly, "What happened to His Majesty's servant?" tanyakanya.
Mentari fell silent while looking at the little boy who was seen crying in the arms of Tungga Dewi.
"Mahesa?" the Mentari arrived.
Mpu Sedayu looked at the confused Mentari, he sure had never introduced his little disciple to them.
"How do you know the name of the child, miss?" asked Mpu Sedayu confused.
"Ah no, I just shot master," replied Mentari slowly, she still could not believe what she saw as the adult Mahesa slaughtered hundreds of warriors on the edge of the ravine.
"So the swordsman I saw earlier was this boy right?" he murmured in the heart.
"Not to be surprised, along with your ever-increasing ability you will continue to see future divination predictions but one that you must understand, the prophecy is not always true but also not always wrong.
You just need to keep the pieces of vision that nature gave you and put them together to become one so that we know what nature wants, do not repeat Rakin's mistake against the will of nature," the word Siren arrived in the mind of Mentari.
"Unite it someday?" Mentari scrunched his forehead.
"Nature will not give us a complete clue about something, nature wants us to strive by seeing what he shows, because the essence of man is to strive," Siren replied.
Mentari was silent with a million questions, he stared at the plain face of Mahesa he had seen so frightening in his memory.
"What does nature really want to show?" he murmured in the heart.
Mpu Sedayu who seemed to have forgotten the strangeness of Mentari began to explain the uniqueness of the Fire Dragon energy.
"The energy of the Fire God could be said to be the strongest energy in the world due to the combined power of the Sabdo palon and the Fire Demon Banaspati.
The combination of the two forces is what makes the Fire God unique, the Fire Dragon Energy can disguise any energy as long as you are able to use it.
Unlike Mariban, Fire Dragon can change shape at will. If there is energy that is able to penetrate the dimensions of space and time, then the fire dragon is able to do it" said Mpu Sedayu slowly.
"So what should I do cake?" ask Sabrang slowly.
"Fight as usual, and cover slowly around this forest with Fire Dragon energy, but the hasty nature of the Fire Dragon can make this plan fall apart.
The girl might be the key to all of this but without the energy of the Fire Dragon, Lakeswara would instantly know if the dimensional gate started to open. You must properly make sure the Fire Dragon follows your orders, I will guide from afar," replied Mpu Sedayu softly.
All were silent after hearing Mpu Sedayu's explanation, they realized that it was not easy to control the Fire Dragon that was notoriously difficult to conquer. The Fire Dragon may currently recognize Sabrang as its master but in the fight sometimes Sabrang was still difficult to control it because sometimes the famous Fire Dragon was happy with the fight took the initiative without Sabrang's orders.
"I don't know what you're going to do but I'm looking forward to your development of the leader of the white light" Mpu Sedayu said.
***
An explosion of fire in the morning destroyed the ruins of Trowulan Village. The atmosphere of the morning which was still dark because the sun had not yet revealed its light suddenly changed light due to the fire that enveloped Sabrang's body.
Sabrang is seen standing flanked by the White Fox and Candrakurama.
"Don't you just ask them to lure them out and not make them mad?" the White Fox is upset.
"Whatever I do isn't the same? they'll still be angry when they see grandpa's presence?" reply Sabrang.
White Fox smiled small, there was a sense of worry in him because he would be reunited with Lakeswara, the experience of being cooped up in space time was still very imprinted in him.
"White fox, I didn't think you could escape from my space, I must admit you're a tough opponent for me" a deafening voice suddenly sounded in the air.
Before long a warrior with bright moon-lighting eyes appeared from the air along with six warriors wearing red masks.
"Lakeswara Dwipa, you have to pay for what you used to do to me" the White Fox replied furiously.
Lakeswara looked indifferent to the White Fox, she was very interested in seeing the eyes of the moon Sabrang.
"So you're my descendant? I don't know what happened to you, but your moon eyes interest me, they seem to pull everything into space and time.
Naraya has made a mistake but you are still not too late. Come here and help me make the world a world without bloodshed" Lakeswara said.
"Without bloodshed? what if your blood is a symbol of the cessation of bloodshed in this world?" Sabrang suddenly disappeared and appeared near Lakeswara, he immediately attacked with full force.
The air around the forest rose rapidly.
"The eternal flame of level II: The eternal flame dance," The flames shot out rapidly and burned Lakeswara's body.
"You think your strength is enough to face me? you're wrong" Lakeswara darted out of the flames and attacked Sabrang.
The sound of explosions due to the impact of heirlooms and internal energy was heard until the palace Malwageni.
Sabrang gasped in shock as his body was pushed back easily even though he had already used up almost half of the Fire Dragon's energy.
His body could not be controlled, he disappeared suddenly and reappeared near the trees before hitting the tree.
The White Fox looked extremely surprised.
"Lakeswara used a time and space style to hurt Sabrang, how could it be? didn't he move one bit?" the White Fox in the heart.
"Are you aware of how much of a difference our powers are?" Lakeswara drew out his heirloom sword and prepared to strike back.
