Bedouin Girl Bunian

Chapter 54

Airin was very agitated because the bodyguards and Damar could not find the bracelet that Damar threw into the river.

Damar also had a final way to save the king of Sham from the evil spirit. Well by way of going into the spirit world using a mirror.

Damar said that to Airin. Where Airin has to get out of the spirit world before the deadline. Airin agreed with what Damar said. She would do anything to save her husband. But before performing the last ritual, Damar had another way. Where they should not go to the spirit world to free the spirit of the king of Sham who is locked there.

"Are you ready for Airin to perform the last rite?"

"Yes Damar. Whatever I will neglect for the healing of the king of Sham" explained Airin with his steady.

"But before we do the last ritual, I'll try to put the stone in a bottle and bury it. I'm sure I can still control the spirit I sent for your husband" Damar explained.

"Well Damar no matter what, I'll agree. The important thing is that the king of Sham will be healed" said Airin at the end.

They returned to the palace and went to the room where the king of Sham was. The situation of the king of Sham is increasingly worrying. His skin that was dry and wrinkled has now appeared a blue-blue color bruised in a stack.

Damar took the ring worn by the king of Sham on his middle finger and put the ring into the glass bottle he was carrying earlier. Airin's ex-lover also read the spell he learned. Suddenly from inside his mouth the king of Sham came out a black mist and entered into the bottle.

Airin shut her mouth seeing that. Indeed, now he again experienced the same mystical thing as he experienced when he continued to have nightmares every night. This time, however, he faced it directly.

Seeing that the escape had entered into the bottle below, Damar immediately closed the bottle with a black cloth.

"Let's go Airin" Take Damar.

Damar and Airin went to a quiet place far enough from the palace to bury the bottle containing the fog earlier

"Hold the bottle" Damar began digging.

Airin held the bottle. His eyes kept glancing right and left. Well he was watching in case something evil suddenly attacked them.

The dark night sky spread over the quiet ground. The full moon was hidden behind the low-hanging black clouds, only shining a small part of the surrounding environment. The night wind blew cold and carried a strange hissing that tickled the nerves.

Amidst the darkness, the old and threatening trees stood tall, towering into the sky. Their shadows looked terrifying, as if they had a life of their own and lurked anyone who dared to approach. The depths of the forest looked so dark that it made the heart beat fast and the mind was filled with irrational fear.

In the distance, the thunderous roar of thunder thundered making the entire body shudder in horror. A dazzling flash of light split the black sky, illuminating for a moment the surrounding scenery. But in a moment, it all sank back into the dark.

Around the quiet place, there was the sound of slow and raspy footsteps, like the approaching ghostly steps. No one knew where the voice came from or who stepped up so boldly on this sinister night.

"Where's the bottle of Airin" Damar asked for the bottle after he finished digging.

The woman who had the husband gave the bottle to Damar. Damar took the bottle and buried it in the hole he had dug earlier. When they finished burying, they left. But something strange happened. Where there was a large black bird perched on top of the tree they had been through. From then on, the bird did not exist at all. The bird that was looking ahead slowly turned its gaze to Damar and Airin.

This mystical bird had an extremely frightening and gripping appearance. Its body was large with pitch-black feathers that looked like wings made of darkness itself. These feathers look dull and tangled, giving the impression of anger and ferocity.

Its large head is equipped with a long, sharp beak, similar to the beak of a bird of prey. His eyes were flaming red with small, intimidating pupils, as if looking directly into one's soul with a piercing gaze.

Its exposed wings cast a dark shadow around it, creating a gripping and frightening atmosphere. The tail of this bird was short and stiff, as if it was made of dark flakes hanging in the air.

This mystical bird was found perched on a dry and dead tree. The tree looks weathered and lifeless, with branches that are notched and without leaves. Damar and Airin, who were near the tree, looked restless and intimidated by the presence of this creepy mystical bird.

When this bird perches on a tree, it shows a threatening attitude and power. Its body is slightly tilted, ready to glide and attack its prey. His powerful claws tightly grasped the branches of the tree, showing his unwavering strength.

This mystical bird became a symbol of fear, darkness, and deadly force. Its existence created a terrifying aura and an evil presence around the tree that was no longer alive. His sharp and deadly gaze showed the ill will stored within him, ready to pounce on the passing prey.

Airin swallowed his Silva to see the bird's whereabouts. When Damar and Airin noticed the bird, from the hole dug by Damar, it made a sound like a glass bottle being knocked on.

The view of Damar and Airin turned into the hole dug by Damar earlier where the bottle was buried

a few minutes later, the ground that buried the bottle collapsed and the dirty that was buried broke. Until out came the black shadow in the bottle while laughing loosely.

Damar and Airin run to save themselves. However, with his rate of Damar attack by the shadow earlier made him fall flat. Damar was dragged a few meters until he hit a tree in the forest.

The tree also fell down wanting to hit Damar. Fortunately, Damar was able to avoid the tree.

Seeing this, Airin tries to help Damar. But the numbers came to a halt when the mysterious bird tried to block it. Damar kept trying to fight the evil spirit. But when he wants to fight, he, his body was lifted flying a few meters up then with a flash Damar body fell back to the earth until his head was hit with a fallen tree that was there making the man unconscious selves.

***

Damar realized from his stings his breath was panting like he had just finished running a thousand kilo meters away. By the time he regained consciousness, he was already in his room at Airin's palace.

"You passed out Damar. I brought you here" explained Airin with flushed eyes and a frightened face.

Damar remembered what happened last night to him.

"I'm sorry Airin. The soul spirit I sent for your husband is getting stronger. I can't control it at all" Damar said, looking desperate.

"Keep what we must do Damar. We must heal the king of Sham as before" Pinta Airin again pleaded.

"Yes I know Airin. I-i know. There is no other way we have to perform the final ritual to save your husband from the evil spirit" Damar explained.

"Whatever Damar is, I'm ready to do it so that the husband is healed" said Airin.

"But before that, I had to go home to pick up some stuff to perform the ritual" Damar said.

Damar returned to his place to retrieve the items used to perform the ritual.

***

Damar, the king of Sham, Airin and also Airin's personal lady-in-waiting were in a warehouse where straw was stored. The King of Sham is laid upon those stacks.

"Where is the sand of his time?" Ask Damar.

"Airin handed over the sands of time to Damar. Coconuts that have been piled up became one of the ingredients of the ritual.Mirror as tall as they were already standing upright in front of them.

Damar took out the three dragon-headed dagger blades.

"Alright Airin we'll do his ritual. Are you ready?"

Airin nodded his head in the sign he was ready.

"But it's not you who will go into the mirror. But me" Damar explained again.

Airin was shocked to hear what Damar had said just now. Because from the beginning it has been planned to bring Airin who will go into the mirror.

"But Damar isn't me..."

"No Airin I can't possibly let you into that dangerous world. Let me be there. I'll take that bracelet out of that world. After the bracelet comes out you must burn so that the spirit is destroyed" Damar explained.

"Why go to that world? We can't just do it in this world"

"Can't be Airin, here the body of the evil spirit is intangible. If it was in another world, its evil spirit body was tangible. That's why we have to enter into that world" Damar explained again.

"So what should I do? And what are the uses of these three dagger blades?" Tanya Airin did not understand.

"Awhile" said Damar to take a knife that he brought earlier. Damar took a few strands of hair of the king of Sham then Damar put the strands of hair earlier on the sand of time. Then Damar stuck one knife on the sand at that time to remove the black fog and into the mirror that stood upright.

"The first dagger has done its job. Now the second dagger" said Damar took his second knife and directly stuck the plane into the wood on the edge of the mirror.

The mirror that was once clear now turned a rather dark color.

"Now, the second training knife was already carrying out his duties. Now there is only a third dagger that will carry out his duty where the story of this dagger I must attach to the evil man so that I can see the existence of the bracelet. Where the bracelet is now in his hand. And as soon as the bracelet came out, it had to be burned immediately for it to be destroyed. Airin you must stand in front of the mirror by holding the already in this hole. Whatever happens, you have to keep this coconut from breaking even if you fall. It was to prevent that from happening out of the mirror" Damar explained at length to his former lover who once filled his days.

"Well Damar I understand. You be careful there. Promise me you will return safely" said Airin filled with hope.

"Pray that I can serve that evil spirit. If I succeed I can definitely go home safely" Damar said with a faint smile. Well he decided to do this because he felt guilty to Airin and the king of Sham He had sent an evil spirit to them without knowing the truth. Even she'd willing her later If she didn't survive it she did just to see Airin happy with her husband.

"Honey, now you go and gather the woods to make a camp. And when the bracelet comes out you immediately burn it" said Damar. Without being asked for the second time, Airin's personal lady-in-waiting was immediately looking for wood to make a bonfire as requested by Damar earlier.

The water approached the helpless body of the king of Sham. She stroked her husband's head lovingly. Tears of sadness now fell back on her cheeks.

"Patience is dear. We will not be reunited soon. You'll be cured soon. Damar has been trying to cure you of this curse. Hold on dear, everything will be fine" said Airin full of affection to her husband.

Seeing this made Damar feel guilty. He truly regretted having done all of this because of the grudge in his heart. Well three only he knows the truth, surely the curse will not happen to the king of Sham. That revenge had blinded his heart. It is not at all merciful to see the suffering of Airin all this time. Instead, feel very satisfied and happy when you see Airin crying.

But by the time he knew it, it was too late. He had to perform this ritual even willing to sacrifice his life to save the king of Sham in order to return to see Airin smiling happily.
