40 Days
Chapter 22
It did not take long he arrived at the climbs especially now only his tribe who came to the place. Because if he goes with his body may be a bit chili and must have been long until, considering his old body will certainly be easily tired when having to walk to that place. Even at night like today.
This time Sugeni can go even further into the forest. Sawu Ireng awaits his arrival.
Sewu Ireng looks fierce and violent, genderuwo it looks angry. Now Sugeni is right in front of him, he looks like a dwarf when faced with Sewu Ireng whose body how many feet higher than Sugeni.
There was also Dewi Rengganis wife of Sewu Ireng, as well as several other dedemites who became their soldiers.
The soldiers were in various shapes and types, their bodies were about the size of humans but their physique resembled an animal might be able to say they were a demon.
Sugeni expressed the intention of his desire to be able to help two young people who the other day came to his, he wanted to save the tribe of someone who is believed to be trapped in this place.
Hearing Sugeni's request, Sewu ireng was furious. According to her Sugeni had already broken the agreement between them. A few years ago, Sewu Ireng asked for the death of a virgin or girl every month and year to replace the Vijaya tribe saved by Sugeni at that time.
Sugeni accepts Sewu Ireng's wish to save Wijaya. Tumbal virgin or girl is an offering of Sewu ireng especially for Goddess Rengganis, while other tumbal for her followers dedemit.
The red hill forest must always be wet with a pool of blood, because from there it is the source of their nation's life.
There Sugeni saw a tribe that he believed still had a intact body, the Maura tribe he found. He only knew that in the accident, there were still survivors and now the same fate as Wijaya. Besides having to help Arman and Syafa find Jeni's spirit, he also has to save Maura's tribe.
Sewu Ireng knows exactly what is on Sugeni's mind at this time. Sewu Ireng will not let anyone get in the way of his wishes. Without further ado Sugeni was attacked by the dedemites, until there was a great battle between them.
Sugeni was a little overwhelmed, fortunately he had the knowledge to be able to fight the demons.
When one by one the soldiers lost a battle with Sugeni, Sewu Ireng immediately grabbed Sugeni's body and threw it to the bouncing of a tree and then fell on the ground and sharp rocks.
At the same time the body of Sugeni who was still sitting cross-legged in his stage house also reacted. The body was bounced back, Sugeni's eyeballs glared as if he wanted to get out of his place, withstanding the extreme pain.
His face was pale to blue-blue, he vomited a lot of viscous and fresh blood.
Elsewhere, somewhere else,
Arman was about to enter dreamland, but he woke up to the sound of knocking on the door. At first he was reluctant to go out and wait for his mother or father who opened the door.
How surprised Arman was to find someone standing out there.
'' Grandpa? '' Arman was astonished to see Sugeni coming to his house. What are these nights like Sugeni coming to his house for? And where does Grandpa know Arman's home address? Question marks filled the man's mind, he who was still in shock had not had time to invite Sugeni in.
'' Son, save your friend immediately. He's in the woods, your sister's spirit is there too. They need your help, Sugeni said in a soft voice.
Sugeni's face this time looks different from when he first met her a few days ago.
'' Friends? '' Arman frowned both of his eyebrows.
'' There is a tribe of a girl who is trapped there, and the spirit of your sister is trying to save the girl but it seems she has no power against Sewu ireng and the others. With you saving him then all the souls of the victims including the spirit of your sister will be freed from there. '' Sugeni stared fixedly at Arman's eyes as he spoke. The old grandfather's face looked mysterious.
Arman begins to understand who Sugeni means. He was sure that the girl was Maura.
'' So when can I get there cake? Grandpa will take me and Syafa to that place again right? '' asked Arman.
'' Go before the 40 days of your brother's death, I will guide you there Sugeni replied.
Suddenly the wind blew quite strong, at that time Sugeni vanished from the presence of Arman.
Arman is again shocked by Sugeni's sudden disappearance. He dizzy looking for the old grandfather, but unfortunately Sugeni he could not find. Again he experienced something strange that is difficult to accept logic. How could one possibly leave so quickly from his presence, even vanishing just like that .
Arman rubbed the nape that began to bristle, the cold as if slipping into the pores of the skin.
He closed the door and went back to the room. The drowsiness that he had felt disappeared just like that. The situation is increasingly tense and gripping, Arman hopes the morning will soon arrive. He will tell all this to Shafa.
He remembered the words of Syafa who said that one day Sugeni would come to give news to one of them. Now that Syafa's words are proven, Sugeni did come on tonight and tell him about Maura.
It was getting late, Arman wanted to call Syafa but because it was late at night he decided to talk directly with Syafa tomorrow at work.
