THE SUN GOD SWORD
Prisoner Cage
After successfully surviving on the canoe for an hour, the three of them finally arrived at their intended place.
They pulled over in a small lagoon that was so beautiful, filled with white sand that was twinkling like pearly scattering. On the west side of this mountain, there is a small waterfall roaring from the top of the rock wall.
Sungsang Geni came down from the canoe with his body crawling, nothing like this would happen again, the young man thought. He gripped the sand on the shore, then laid his body against the sky.
The view is still swirling, the sky looks curved as if away from the earth. The young man was really seasick.
Wulandari could not shake his laughter, realizing that the greatest young man in Surasena was still like a commoner.
It took a lot of effort to arrive under the palm trees by the beach, Sungsang Geni walked on all fours accompanied by Commander Ireng who could not even pull his tongue. Always dangling.
Sungsang Geni leaned his body in such a way, looking for the most comfortable position at the moment, but did not find it. He ended up leaning only half of his body, with his chin touching his chest.
“You are really sad,” joked Wulandari, she finally chose to sit on a mangrove trunk filled with hanging roots. “But your efforts will pay off, you can absorb natural energy well on the spot..”.
Wulandari's words were not continuous, changing with a momentary rustling sound. Sungsang Geni immediately turned his head towards her, but the girl was no longer there. The young man could see something moving among the bushes. The movement is getting away.
“Celaka!” The young man was shocked for a moment. “This place has its owner, Ireng the girl has been kidnapped.”
“Gerr..” Panglime Ireng growled as he painstakingly stood up from the shore, walking unsteadily towards the mangrove tree. The wolf sniffed its nose, traced the girl and disappeared behind a mangrove tree, and entered the bush.
“Ireng!” Sungsang Geni called out to him a few times. “What happened? There's no way you're missing either.”
Without waiting for a long time, the young man with a careless body walked by trailing the trail of Commander Ireng.
The young man went into the forest. He watched closely, some traces of the two of them still left on the small branches that were broken.
“Why should it be in this state.” The young man was upset.
Immediately a sword light sword energy shot out from his palm. The young man was already preparing for the possibility that would happen. Who are the enemies in this place, the soft people or people, or maybe something else?
After far enough following in the footsteps of the two of them, now the young man was faced with a slightly muddy road. There are footprints on the surface of the ground, small but with big fingers.4 pairs of footprints.
“This is not an animal footprints, but not a human footprint.” Sungsang Geni still followed him carefully. “What are these people doing? definitely not a nation of softeners.”
A few hundred meters away the young man followed the footsteps on the ground. But until now have not found who the owner of the trail, how does it look?
The steps of Sungsang Geni stop at a small swamp filled with aquatic plants, genjer, kale, and taro as well as other plants. Almost the little swamp was covered with plants.
The footprints stopped at this place. Sungsang Geni looked at each side of the place, turning several times to the tall trees to ensure that the roots might be used for swaying. But there's no.
A few minutes later, there was movement from behind. Just for a moment, the young man turned his head but a loud bang hit his face. In a body condition that had not been so good, the young man could not dodge the attack.
Before he lost consciousness, he could see large-nosed creatures and taper ears staring at him fiercely.
***
The young man came to a place filled with large woods around him. The wood resembles a holding cell, or perhaps a cage.
“You're awake, Geni?” wulandari's voice was heard on the left side, precisely in another cage that was joined by Commander Ireng.
The girl's body was already filled with bruises, even her thin lips that were so attractive when posing a frown were now stained with blood. Her hair was already disheveled, even looking shorter than before, seemingly deliberately cut by their captors.
Commander Ireng did not lose to suffer from the girl, her front leg looks broken. His head was bleeding, probably hit with a stick or something. The animal simply collapsed on Wulandari's lap, with an outstretched tongue and one of her puffy eyes.
“She's still fine,” said the girl slowly. “We suffered several torture times during your unconsciousness. The creatures were extremely terrifying, not only did they possess extraordinarily powerful scales. Like a warrior without a match, but they are not warriors. No, but they're not human.”
Sungsang Geni hardened his jaw, he then desperately tried to get out of this place. But for some reason, it was as if his body lacked power and effort.
“They have given us poison..” Wulandari thanks. “This poison will not kill us, but the effect caused by the poison can make our body become very weak. Although the type is different, but in Negeri Sembilan there is a poison like this, Rogo's Poison Melarat.”
“Just calm down, I will save you both,” the young man said. “Hold for a moment, we'll be safe..”.
Not over the words of the young man, suddenly a creature came to kick his holding cell. The kick was so powerful, making the prisoner cage float several meters. Sungsang Geni had to turn over in there.
The prisoner's cage stopped right between dozens of creatures on the vast plains.
Sungsang Geni had never seen such a creature before. Dwarf-bodied, only about the size of his waist with a stocky body and longer thin hairy rough fingers. They are like monkeys, but not monkeys.
And the thing that surprised the young man the most was, the heel of his foot was upside down. The fingers of the creature are facing backwards, different from humans and any creature.
Like humans, they also have families. Some of them had big chests, it looked like a woman. No one was wearing clothes, but they were a little embarrassed by covering their vitals with animal skins.
And interestingly, even they breastfeed their children like humans. Their number was no less than 50 people, all of them dwarf and large-muscled.
One of them, wearing a crown framed from the teeth of an animal or perhaps a human. There are many types of coiled teeth on his head.
Sungsang Geni was convinced she was a woman, evident from her large chest, but the young man was also convinced she was the leader of this group of strange creatures.
“Sebaba...sebaba...” he said to Sungsang Geni. “Sebaba...sebaba...” then his face became angry, his large nostrils got bigger only. “SEBABA!” he yelled.
“What does this creature mean?” Sungsang Geni sat up in annoyance.
