THE SUN GOD SWORD
Brata Tapa
1000 Years ago the blessing of the sun was once given by the Sun God to the king of Angga, Karna who was born without a father from a virgin girl named Dewi Kunti.
The blessing is in the form of armor and earrings, whose function is to protect the body of King Angga Karna, from any attack that leads to him.
King Angga Karna is a swordsman who upholds the principle of chivalry.
After that the blessing of the Sun God never again came down to earth, until the end of it now the blessing is given to Sungsang Geni, although not in the form of armor and earrings like those of King Angga who can withstand the attack that leads to him.
After losing his mother, Sungsang Geni has a big question to himself, why was he chosen? and will his nation be the same as King Angga Karna, who died in the hands of his own brother? That's why he's looking for a teacher.
After 1 month Sungsang Geni was at his teacher's house, Ki Alam Sakti had not shown any signs of giving him a meaningful lesson, but nevertheless he never doubted his teacher.
In that small house that Sungsang Geni does every day just do house cleaning and cooking food.
He tried several times to find something in every corner of the house, maybe he could find an heirloom book or an heirloom sword, but apparently there was nothing in the house.
As usual after completing his daily tasks, Sungsang Geni did nothing. This made him very bored, so he finally decided to look around the valley around Batu hill which was not much.
Then he found his teacher meditating on the brink, Sungsang Geni never realized there was a ravine on the top of a rock hill, plus a place of meditation that was so quiet.
Seeing his teacher, Sungsang Geni became stunned and envious, Ki Alam Sakti floated a few feet from his seat which was composed of stone.
“Your lightening body of Eang Guru is very good, just deserve him easily up the stone stairs.” Sungsang Geni muttered to himself.
Realizing that his disciple was behind him, Ki Alam Sakti immediately completed his meditation.
Ki Alam Sakti turned his head towards his disciple, then approached with feet not touching the ground at all.
“Geni, what do you want to ask?” Ki Alam Sakti with his clean spiritual soul is able to read a little of the mind of his interlocutor.
Sungsang Geni was hesitant at first, but he finally ventured to ask. “Eang Guru why didn't you teach me any science?”
Ki Alam Sakti smiled then patted Sungsang Geni's shoulder a few times, “What kind of you want, Geni?” If it's pagan science, don't you already have it in your right hand?after all somehow the energy in your body also began to rise?”
“I want another science Eang Guru, such as lightening the body, using a sword or something else?” Sungsang Geni realized something, with blessings and inner strength alone would not be enough to face warriors who had the same inner strength but good fighting skills.
Every time he defeated his enemy, Sungsang Geni just let out a fire from his palm, without the need to make any martial moves.
Ki Alam Sakti smiled at him, he already understood the wishes of his student, only for now the martial skill is not too important for this student.
“Other science Geni?” ask Ki Alam Sakti, as if not knowing the meaning of his student, “What kind of thing do you mean?”
Finding his disciple not giving an answer, Ki Alam Sakti turned to the valley not far from there, then he said. “Alright Geni, I will teach you the technique of using the sword, but you must complete a test, this test will answer all the questions in your heart.”
“What is the test Eang Guru?”
Ki Alam Sakti embraced Sungsang Geni's shoulder, then he carried him flying towards the cold valley.
Sungsang Geni's first experience of being taken flying caused his heart to nearly explode due to his beating being too strong.
After that, Ki Alam Sakti landed very smoothly like cotton that fell to the ground, almost no sound of foot treading.
The valley was named stone valley, there was a waterfall that was quite swift and high, the water was very clear again cold.
Several pairs of birds dived down and flew with small fish in their mouths, Sungsang Geni also saw shady trees that did not grow on rock hills.
In the middle of the waterfall there is a black stone that slightly jutted out.
That stone is where Ki Alam Sakti when he was young to do meditation, to cleanse his soul to be closer to nature and the creator.
“The test you have to go through is, you have to be able to control the power that is in your hands. Because no matter how hard you practice sword fighting, then the sword will still be charred if you can not control the solar fire that comes out of your hands.”
“Then give the student instructions to master the blessings of the sun teacher?” ask Sungsang Geni, “Because that's my first destination.”
Ki Alam Sakti brought Sungsang Geni up on the rock in the middle of the waterfall, with the entire body of Sungsang Geni became soaked with water.
The water that hit his right hand sometimes emitted smoke because Sungsan Geni accidentally released the power of the sun.
Ki Alam Sakti who saw that, immediately patted the chest of Sungsang Geni, “Color your heart!”
On one side Sungsang Geni was only amazed to see the waterfall did not touch the body Ki Alam Sakti at all, even like avoiding it.
Sungsang Geni did not really understand whether it was one of his teacher's caromah, or because the internal energy was too large so that the water would not touch it, he said, but clearly Sungsang Geni never saw the incident in his lifetime.
“To stay here for a year, control your naps, control your mind, and control your race. After one year I will come back here, and teach you to use the sword,” said Ki Alam Sakti.
Sungsang Geni was only speechless at the teacher's orders, he was about to refute but did not do so. Again Ki Alam Sakti wants Sungsang Geni to do the impossible.
“Geni, in this life having a science of kanuragan alone will not be enough to live, even though you are the only swordsman who is unmatched though, if you don't have a clean heart then just stay home.” Ki Alam Sakti answered the concerns on Sungsang Geni.
“Alright Eang Guru, I understand what you mean, this is also for my sake.” said Sungsang Geni resignedly, then he immediately sat down cross-legged, cross-legged, closed his eyes and began to immerse the falling water in his mouth with a sense of cold.
