The Return of the Fire Dragon Swordsman
Ajian Dark Sayuto

Wungkalsegara lunged forward towards Dewi Mask Waja. His sharp jagged mace swung rapidly towards the head of the female swordsman as fast as lightning. Although his wounds were still bleeding, but the thick-bodied man seemed to not care.

Whhhuuuggghhh..!!

Goddess Mask Waja immediately avoids the sharp jagged mace that leads to the head. The masked woman immediately lowered her body until a sharp jagged wind of mace belonging to Wungkalsegara passed over her head quickly. Using both hands as a focus, the Waja Mask Goddess immediately clumped together. Wungkalsegara hunted him by continuing to swing the mace.

Whuuthhh whuuthhh !!

As fast as the swing of the sharp jagged mace of Wungkalsegara, can not hit the body of the Goddess of the Waja Mask. As if all the movements of Wungkalsegara have been read by this masked woman. Wungkalsegara snorted loudly at the ability of the opponent. While cursing the maki, Wungkalsegara channeled his inner energy on a sharp jagged mace and re-thumped his flagship weapon towards the back of Goddess Mask Waja.

A series of strong winds roaring sharply following the swing of the Wungkalsegara mace. The Goddess Mask Waja immediately imprinted the ground violently then bounced high into the air dodging the attack and landed on one of the tree branches behind him.

Bhhuuuummmmhhh..!

Loud explosions were heard as the sharp jagged mace hit the ground. Seeing the opponent escaped, Wungkalsegara immediately pursued the Goddess Mask Waja while heading towards the masked woman.

Blllaaaaaarrr !!

Loud explosions were heard along with tree branches crunching broken and falling to the ground. Just before the impact of the Wungkalsegara mace, Dewi Mask Waja managed to dodge and salto twice in the air before landing on the ground. The iron masked woman immediately turned both hands in front of her chest. Two circles of reddish blue light were immediately created and he quickly threw this blue light towards Wungkalsegara.

"Dark Sayuto...

Chhiyyyyyyyyyyyaaaaaaat...!!!"

Shhiiiuuuuttt...

The thick-bodied man who was about to charge forward towards Dewi Mask Waja hurriedly blurted out his intention to attack and directly plopped himself onto the ground.

Bllaammmmmmmmm !!

Wungkalsegara survived death. But the big tree behind him exploded and burned after being hit by the hit Ajian Dark Sayuto released by the Goddess Mask Waja. Seeing the greatness of the science of canuragan Goddess Mask Waja, Wungkalsegara pale instantly.

'Devil alas..

This female demon is highly trained. If I get hit by Ajian Dark Sayuto earlier, my body will be destroyed. I have to escape from this place', said Wungkalsegara in my heart.

As fast as lightning, Wungkalsegara immediately hit a rock as big as a buffalo head with his sharp jagged mace. The huge stone floated quickly towards the Goddess Mask Waja.

Bhhuuk...!

Goddess Mask Waja immediately convoluted to avoid the impact of the big stone. He was already suspicious of the attitude of the Wungkalsegara who suddenly attacked from a distance. Seeing Wungkalsegara who tried to escape, Dewi Mask Waja again slammed his right hand towards the thick-bodied man who darted quickly towards the thickets on the edge of the small forest.

Bllaammmmmmmmm !!!

The sound of a powerful explosion was heard along with the fall of a sharp jagged mace belonging to Wungkalsegara to the ground. Meanwhile, the owner of the mace his body slashed far more than 4 spears backwards and suckled the ground violently. Wungkalsegara died without a chance to shout when Ajian Dark Sayuto beat his body. Half of his body was charred like he had just been struck by lightning during the rainy season.

The Goddess Mask Waja immediately moved her hand spinning rapidly beside the waist. The small silvery-white dagger that stuck on Wungkalsegara's shoulder immediately shook violently and was uprooted from the body of the stocky man's corpse. It was like having a life of its own, drifting rapidly towards the right hand of the Goddess Mask Waja. Similarly, the dagger that had splashed away due to the impact of a sharp jagged mace owned by Wungkalsegara.

Shuuuutttthhh shuuutttthhh !

Deftly, Goddess Mask Waja immediately caught the handle of her flying dagger that had accompanied her journey for many years. The masked woman immediately took out a piece of cloth to clean up the remaining blood on the blade of her dagger then she quickly kept the pair of silvery-white dagger behind her waist.

Old grandfather and boy aged around 7 - 8 warsa who had watched the fight immediately approached the Goddess Mask Waja who seemed to regulate his breathing.

"Thank you for your help, Swordsman..

Without your help, Akuwu Watugede's son must have escaped the criminals. Pakuwon Watugede owes you a debt of gratitude" the old man said respectfully.

"It's Ki, I just happened to pass by.

Next time be careful if you go through this area, at least bring a bodyguard to keep your security. Especially if you bring valuable things. Areas near the border of a country like this are prone to crime.

Excuse me first", said Dewi Mask Waja while nodding respectfully to this handsome old man and boy. A blink of an eye was likely, the Goddess Mask Waja darted away leaving the old grandfather and the boy towards the east.

"What an incredible female warrior..

We should leave this place soon, Januyasa. Let's go ", take the old man with us while holding the hand of the little boy who just resignedly followed the will of the old man.

Meanwhile the Goddess Mask Waja continued to move quickly among the trees that flourished in this small forest. His body movements were so light and agile that within a few breaths the masked female warrior had come out from within the small forest. On the edge of the small forest there is a small wooden hut at the foot of the rock hill. Beneath it is a vast area of rice fields and fields with verdant views of soil fertility signs.

With a light body movement, Goddess Mask Waja set her foot on this hut courtyard. The eyes of this woman look alert to the surrounding circumstances to ensure the safety of the place. Having been convinced that there is no one but her , Dewi Mask Waja stepped towards the door of a bamboo hut made of wooden trunk as big as an adult's big toe which was arranged in such a way with rattan to become a door. The woman's hand immediately opened the door of the little hut and immediately went inside.

As soon as the door of the little hut was closed, Goddess Mask Waja immediately untied the rope from the red cloth at the nape of her neck until the half-face iron mask she used detached from the face until the appearance of a natural beautiful face from Goddess Mask Waja.

"Prince Gusti Panji Tejo Laksono,

How are you doing now? It has been almost 4 full moon you left me alone in this Java Land. I hope you're always okay with Luh Jingga".

There was a slow muttering sound from the tiny mouth of Dewi Mask Waja or what was actually Gayatri. The eyes of the beautiful woman look glared far into the North sky from the door between the wood as if seeing the figure of Panji Tejo Laksono smiling knots there. It is reflected in Gayatri's mind how she went through this three full moon time without the presence of Panji Tejo Laksono.

After the Panji Tejo Laksono and Luh Jingga left the Panjalu Country to the Land of China, Tumenggung Sindupraja intends to bring Gayatri back to Kadiri. At first Gayatri according, but on the way home, suddenly Gayatri fled from his father's entourage. He wanted to wait for the return of Panji Tejo Laksono at Halong Port along with Ayu Ratna.

After escaping, Gayatri traveled alone to Kalingga. In the middle of the journey, he who was in a state of chaos due to the departure of Panji Tejo Laksono, fought with an old hermit who accidentally tangled with him in a food stall.

Gayatri lost, and in accordance with the previous agreement that whoever succeeds in being defeated will be the student of the person who defeated for 2 full moons. Next Gayatri brought an old hermit named Maharesi Bajrabali to a hermitage at the foot of Mount Sindoro.

There, Gayatri trained with silat science that is different from his canuragan science. But the intelligence of Gayatri in absorbing knowledge, making Panji cousin Tejo Laksono who is also his future wife quickly mastered the science of canuragan taught by Maharesi Bajrabali. Seeing Gayatri's high talent in martial arts, Maharesi Bajrabali finally revealed a science kanuragan his mainstay is very famous in the martial world, Ajian Dark Sayuto. A science of high power that is able to emit energy in like a thousand lightning strikes.

After two full moons studied to Maharesi Bajrabali, the, Gayatri finally left the Sindoro Mountain Hermit and began to descend the mountain while wearing an iron mask in accordance with the request of Maharesi Bajrabali as a form of devotion of the student to his teacher, topo ngrame. From that time the football lunge in the martial world of Jawadwipa Land west region quickly became the lips of the people of western Panjalu, especially Kalingga Duchy, Yellow Flower to Rajapura.

There are so many young warriors who try to defeat Gayatri just to show the ability to be famous in the martial world, but Gayatri who is in the position as the Goddess of the Waja Mask is not a careless swordsman. Dozens of black and white warriors who want to try their magic must swallow the bitter pill of defeat after being beaten by Gayatri all-out.

The tears of longing slowly expand in the beautiful eye patch of Gayatri. The beautiful girl loved Panji Tejo Laksono so much that parting with the young prince from Kadiri was so torturous inwardly.

In his longing for Panji Tejo Laksono, Gayatri suddenly remembered Ayu Ratna. This daughter of Duke Aghnibrata must also feel the same way as me, Inner Gayatri with a long sigh.

"Tomorrow I'll go to Kalingga. As long as Gusti Pangeran Panji Tejo Laksono is not around, I should take care of Ayu Ratna to ensure her safety", gayatri said as she began to lay down her body on a simple bed made of logs in the corner of the hut.

The afternoon is beautiful at the foot of Mount Slamet. The red plume blends with the yellow to form a beautiful orange color in the western sky. Thousands of bats fly out of their nests for food while the birds of the day begin to come home to rest in their nests.

The next morning, Gayatri again put on her half-face iron mask after wrapping several pairs of hers in black. After everything is done, Gayatri aka Dewi Mask Waja turned his head briefly towards the small hut that had been his residence for these few days before she bounces high into the air and darted quickly away from where it was heading towards Kalingga Duchy.

After spending the night at the Exquisite Moon Pavilion, Song Zhao Meng finally managed to persuade her grandmother Sima Qian to stay home again with her son Chow Sing. It was on various terms that Sima Qian and Zhengzhou Governor Chow Sing quickly accepted.

After reconciling the extended family of Empress Mingjie in Zhengzhou, Princess Song Zhao Meng begged for time to continue on her way to Kaifeng City. This was because they had stayed in Zhengzhou for quite a long time over the past few days.

Sima Qian escorted Song Zhao Meng to the gate of the Zhengzhou Governor's palace. The old woman's eyes glazed over as she stared at Song Zhao Mengs beautiful face.

"Meng Er, please,

Take good care of yourself, right? This old granny will always pray that you will always be happy" Sima Qian said as she wiped the tears that soaked her wrinkled cheeks.

"Grandmother need not worry. There is Brother Thee guarding me, I must be fine", replied Song Zhao Meng who smiled faintly as she glanced towards Panji Tejo Laksono who was standing beside her.

"Rancid boy,

If you waste my granddaughter, then even a ghost will come to you and I'll choke your neck. Understand you?", threatened Sima Qian while glancing sharply at Panji Tejo Laksono.

"Grandmother need not worry, Meng Er will be fine with me" Panji Tejo Laksono replied briefly.

After bidding farewell to Sima Qian and Governor Chow Sing, Panji Tejo Laksono and Song Zhao Meng left Governor Zhengzhou's palace heading east. While passing through the city gate of Zhengzhou, Song Zhao Meng had a glance towards the top of the palace building of the Zhengzhou Governor before being covered by a large wall that surrounded the entire Zhengzhou City.

The group moved slowly leaving Zhengzhou City. Seeing the group of Panji Tejo Laksono and Song Zhao Meng along with Huang Lung, Luh Jingga and his followers left Zhengzhou city, two burly men immediately jumped on their horses and kicked the animal eastward with a slight detour.

The two of them quickly drove their horses towards a place guarded by some swordsmen. Without waiting for long, the two of them immediately dashed into the building immediately.

"Young prince,

They had already left Zhengzhou City. Looking at him, they headed towards Kaifeng", the slightly thin man reported immediately to a young man who was none other than Prince Zhao Wei. With a cold snort, Zhao Wei turned to look at a long-bearded man with sunken eyes similar to his skull.

"The Black Skull, though,

Time for you to act".
