The Fire Dragon Sword
Ki Gandana's
"How dare you interfere, I will burn your spirit to the point of scorching" The fire dragon attacked the old man.
"Protective fiber".
The grandfather chanted a stance and before long his body was shrouded in a white aura resembling fog holding back the Fire Dragon Attack.
"You think the protective fibers can protect you.
"Son I can't stay here for too long my strength is currently under the Fire Dragon" the old man looked at Sabrang.
"Who are you?" Sabrang scrunched his forehead, he tried to recognize the grandfather in front of him but he was sure he had never met him.
"I am the guardian heirloom of Malwageni, You know the Malwageni breed has heirlooms that are hereditary passed down to its descendants. When the time comes I'll follow you".
Sabrang was still trying to digest what the grandfather was talking about before the old man touched his palm.
"For the time being it doesn't matter, I haven't been able to follow you because the fire dragon is residing in your body. You have to believe in your own abilities, Be like your father who won't bow to anyone, you have the right to set your own path, son".
Slowly the white mist on the grandfather's body started to fade away slowly.
"Grow your hand" Grandpa closed his eyes.
Suddenly, the grandfather's hand released a golden light and quickly entered Sabrang's body before disappearing again a few moments later.
"Cursed you old man" The fire dragon cried out in anger.
"You know the Fire Dragon, you may have unlimited power but I'm sure one day this boy will conquer you because he has the determination of Malwageni. Until then I'll make sure you can't touch it!".
Slowly the grandfather's body disappeared.

"You really have released Satan into the martial world". Kumbara said softly to Ki Gandana just before his body shot back to attack Sabrang.
Kumbara was thrown again before it could really touch Sabrang.
"Whatever I break through it still can't, the fire dragon is terrible".
A few moments after Kumbara spoke arrived slowly The fire dragon's flames shrank and disappeared.
"Did it disappear? What's going on?" Kumbara was still looking at Sabrang staying in standby position.
Before long Sabrang slowly opened his eyes. He looked around him in wonder.
"Teacher what happened?" He looked at Kumbara whose body was injured.
"You okay, son?" Ki Gandana approached Sabrang.
"Go away, you don't know what you're up against" Kumbara shouted at Gandana.
"No need to worry about the elder he's my student".
"How can this child escape the influence of the Fire Dragon? Or is it just a trick?" Kumbara stared hard at Sabrang.
Suddenly Sabrang's body collapsed, his body really did not have any energy at all.
"I'm so tired of teachers" Sabrang tried to catch his breath.
"It's okay son, rest up" Ki Gandana smiled in relief.
Kumbara began to approach, he poured his inner strength into his arm.
"Go away, I'll kill him".
Ki Gandana stared intently at Kumbara.
"I won't let the elder kill him".
"You don't know what you're doing, don't you see for yourself how terrifying her powers are?" Kumbara's voice is rising.
"I know but didn't the elder also see that he could escape the influence of the Fire Dragon?".
"I don't know what happened to him, but I won't take any chances like that. Move aside or I'll kill you" Aura again covered Kumbara's body.
"If the elder forces me what can I do? I'll protect this kid even if I have to die". Ki Gandana got up and prepared to make a move.
"You don't know how horrible Dieng is, do you want to risk it just for the sake of this kid?".
"I don't know if this child will ever find Dieng or not but isn't it the elder himself who said that humans are controlled by lust and ambition not by a sword?".
Kumbara shook her head slowly "It is the human passion that the Fire Dragon will use to get back up".
"I'm sure this kid can control the Fire Dragon, I'll bet like his teacher bet on him!".
"You!!!" Kumbara's reddened face held back anger.
Kumbara looked at Ki Gandana for a moment, there was no doubt in her eyes, her gaze shifted to look at Sabrang who was unconscious.
"Alright this time he let go, if he again affected the Fire Dragon I myself will kill him" Slowly the aura on his body disappeared.
"Thank you for the elder's kindness" Ki Gandana lowered his head in salute.
"Remember today, I hope that you will not regret your decision and tell the boy to be careful with the Fire Dragon, the history of the Sword is very dark".
Moments later Kumbara's body disappeared from Ki Gundana's presence.
After Kumbara left Ki Gandana stared at Sabrang for a moment. Mentari was seen running towards Sabrang with an anxious face.
"I don't know how your life will be, son, you have such great talent but you will also bear a great responsibility. As elder Kumbara said, I hope my decision to save you today does not make my biggest regret ever".
