The Fire Dragon Sword
Envoy of Arkantara
"How did you get out of Nagara Siang Padang His Majesty? I've asked Arung hundreds of times to find a secret way out of the place but it didn't work" said Wardhana lirih, he really felt failed as a coach protecting his king.
"Uncle's long story, somehow the Fire Dragon saved me because all I remember was waking up in a hut with a body full of wounds. It took me a long time to heal that wound but thanks to the help of the grandfather of Revelation, I was able to recover faster" Sabrang replied softly.
"Grandfather Revelation?" ask Wardhana.
"He was the one who found my body lying by the river" Sabrang replied.
Wardhana nodded as she took a deep breath, she could not imagine how Sabrang struggled out of the ruins of the gigantic building.
"Hamba is really sorry Your Majesty, I am useless," said Wardhana softly.
"Don't say like that uncle, there's no one to blame because this is my own decision" Sabrang replied with a smile.
"Sorry, Your Honor," only that word came out of Wardhana's mouth many times, while Candrakurama just silently listened, both of them still feeling guilty for what happened to Sabrang.
"Then how's the state of the palace as long as I'm gone?" Sabrang tried to melt the atmosphere.
"Travel arrived you make the palace had heated up but the queen mother managed to master the situation, that's what makes the coronation of Queen Tungga Dewi a little late. Tomorrow I will take care of the transition of power because you are back," Wardhana replied while explaining all the problems that come from Adiwilaga.
Wardhana also explained the situation of Saung Galah palace after they were conquered including the appointment of Pancaka to be a small king there.
"No uncle, let Dewi lead the Malwageni for a while, there are things we should do first. That's why I came quietly to see uncle, "Sabrang replied quickly.
"I mean Your Majesty?" Wardhana frowned.
"After my injuries recovered, I was planning to return to Malwageni but the teacher asked me to meet someone at Swarna Dwipa and by chance I met Emmy on the way" Sabrang said.
"You met mistress concubine?" ask Wardhana quickly.
Sabrang nodded, he then told all the events on his way to the slopes of Mount Indrapura to infiltrate the capital Arkantara, also about the relationship of the troops of the holy temple with the book Sabdo Loji.
"So the book of Sabdo Loji came from there?" Wardhana looked surprised after hearing Sabrang's story.
"True, it was in the holy land of the god that Sabdo Loji was buried before a merchant named Mandala stole the book and took it to Jawata."
"So, now I'm beginning to understand that the sacred Temple is the mastermind behind all these events" answered Wardhana softly.
"That's the news that I heard uncle, they were trying to use the kingdom of Arkantara to disguise the main purpose of finding the red pomegranate mustika which is most likely to revive the Mandala" Sabrang said.
"Mustika Merah pomegranate?" wardhana's face changed instantly, she recalled the writing in the Sabdo Lodge she had read. "So it must be true that it exists in this world."
"Do you know about the mustika?" asked Sabrang curiously.
Wardhana shook his head softly, "It was written in the second book of the Sabdo Lodge found by the White Fox."
"Second book? did uncle Sabdo mean there were two lodges?"
"Hamba was also surprised Your Majesty " answered Wardhana while taking the book from his clothes and handing it to Sabrang.
"No way, a swordsman I met in Arkantara clearly said that there was only one uncle in the book of Sabdo Lodge" Sabrang replied confusedly.
"If what you say is true, it means that someone deliberately faked the book for a certain purpose" Wardhana said slowly.
"Forget that matter for a moment uncle, there is an important thing that I must convey to uncle. When we returned to Jawata, we accidentally met an Arkantara envoy who was also heading to Malwageni" Sabrang said.
"Ackantara Station? how could the kingdom that had been shutting itself down suddenly send an envoy?" reply Wardhana confused.
"That's what makes me suspicious, it seems like there's some hidden purpose to their visit this time," Sabrang replied quickly.
Wardhana seemed to think for a moment, he tried to guess the purpose and purpose of their arrival.
"Your Majesty, let the servant accept the messenger, if they try to play with Malwageni then the servant will serve, that is the only way to know the purpose of their arrival," said Wardhana slowly.
"Do the uncle and make sure to thwart whatever their plans are" Sabrang said, covering his face.
"You're going?" ask Candrakurama.
"I don't want palace officials to know my appearance before the Arkantara envoys leave, it's risky if they find out who I really am and what I did in Swarna Dwipa.
For a while I will stay at the inn near the capital's gate. We will meet in two days at this place, I want my uncle to convey all their intentions and goals in Malwageni" Sabrang said shortly before darting away.
"Candrakurama, I want you to do something for me" Wardhana whispered something to Candrakurama.
"Master, that?" candrakurama's face changed instantly, she did not expect Wardhana to ask her to do such a dangerous thing.
"Just do it, I want to give a small welcome to the Arkantara envoys" Wardhana said with a cold smile.
***
After meeting Wardhana, Sabrang did not immediately return to the inn, he was seen moving towards Trowulan to visit the tomb of Guntoro, Mentari's father.
Actually Sabrang wanted to meet Mentari and Tungga Dewi but the situation was not possible, he had to be patient waiting for the return of the Arkantara messenger so that his identity was unknown.
Sabrang sat pensively in front of Guntoro's grave while opening the Sabdo Palon.
"(Swinging the sword together with your soul growing stronger, no sword exceeding the strength of the heart, crushing the enemy with gentleness because violence will ruin the meaning of the sword).What is the meaning of this word?"
Sabrang long enough to think before closing the book again, he really did not understand the meaning of the sentence that became the opening of the fourth level Sabdo Palon sword.
"It looks like I have to find White Fox's grandfather to ask this question."
After cleaning Guntoro's meal and taking a short break, Sabrang decided to return to the inn, he wanted to immediately look for the White Fox to ask the meaning of the opening sentence that was on the fourth level of Sabdo Palon's sword style.
As Sabrang was about to cross the border of the capital, he saw a figure moving towards him. Sabrang stopped his steps and hid the air of his existence, he hid in one of the shady trees.
"Who is the swordsman?" Sabrang followed the figure from afar, his face looking changed as the swordsman darted towards Trowulan.
The swordsman seemed to pay attention to his surroundings, he was a little confused when he saw the building that Sabrang built for Mentari near Guntoro's tomb.
"This place has changed a lot, the Light of Heaven should be near here" said the Swordsman.
Just as the swordsman was about to inspect the surroundings, an heirloom darted rapidly towards him.
The mysterious swordsman leapt back but the burst of energy as the heirloom struck the ground made his body bounce off a few steps.
"White Light Stick?" sabrang said in his heart.
"What are you doing in this place?" shouted Mentari suspiciously, he stared intently at the swordsman who was wearing the face cover.
"Dance, I feel it" said Siren.
"I know, he is no ordinary warrior, indeed" replied Mentari quickly.
"Not the swordsman, I felt the energy of the Fire Dragon," Siren replied.
"Fire Dragon?" tanya Mentari was surprised.
"I'm sure he's near us" Siren replied.
"Your highness?" Mentari looked around trying to find Sabrang.
"What's he doing? he seemed to open a defensive gap," Sabrang looked worried as the Mentari defense opened.
What Sabrang feared happened, the mysterious swordsman suddenly attacked when he saw a gap.
"Consider!" siren shouted, he was trying to release a white aura to protect Mentari's body but too late, the swordsman was already in front of him while releasing his sword stance.
When Mentari had resigned and the sword almost cut his neck, the time around them stopped arriving.
"He's coming, this energy is obviously the Fire Dragon," Siren saw a body figure move quickly and snatched Mentari's body just before time returned to move.

I apologize because today the PNA chapter is shorter, my work is a little piled up and must be completed tonight, tomorrow I will try to be longer.
Just a notice, PNA now there is an Audio version by a Singles Swordsman named Shin. Please visit to support your fellow Singles.
His voice may not be as crisp as Aura of love but I am sure you will feel a different sensation when you hear a voice that often asks for rain on the night of the week.
Thank you....
