Blue Fire: The beginning of a true warrior

Eps 11: The Murgs.

Hurry up he ran towards the old man.

I hope what he imagines doesn't come true. Just imagined, the fear of being scolded by a man, whose face is not very reflective of his heart.

I want to say it's wrong. It is very difficult to guess the personality of the old man, it seems very mysterious. The beginning of his encounter with Ace was also sudden. But, Ace has lived with him for approximately 2-3 years. It would be absurd if Ace still did not understand the old man.

Ace only followed his every command and advice. If to learn his personality, it is impossible, because the appearance of the old man is only at certain moments. Ace was also confused, wondering he was inwardly, is the old man really a normal human being ?. I don't know....

Without noticing what was in front of him, he ran into whatever was blocking him. Run, fall and get up again, to the old man.

"Huuuffff...hufff....(sigh fatigue).......a bright day..." said Ace exhausted with a forced smile.

Yeah, thats. The asylum is not very broad. However, the nature of the old man that was very difficult to guess, always made Ace sigh.

At that time Ace thought that the old man would scold him. The old man was silent. Staring at Ace with a gaze that still did not change. Shortly after, the old man walked with both hands clasped behind.

"Are you ready ???...... Or?????.." asked the old man while walking.

"Or..... What ???.." said Ace.

"Could it be, want.... resign????.." said the old man with a look of disdain.

"Teacher. However, I will try my best" said Ace.

"Hmmm. I love your spirit Ace. Be careful there, for every step you take will affect your fate." said the old man.

"......., where are you going to take me teacher?...." said Ace.

He took Ace to the southeast direction of the asylum. Yep..... Walk towards Murgs.

Murgs, the gazebo is light brown, with snapdragon flowers encircling it. When entering near murgs, the smell of snapdragon flowers scattered everywhere. Fragrant, to the heart of everyone.

Behind his beauty, it turns out that Murgs keeps a dark story. The word murgs comes from the latvi language which means nightmare or nightmare. In the past, many warriors died when entering the murgs region.

Every warrior who dies, his soul will be absorbed by the snapdragon flower. Then, the snapdragon flower will darken its color, wither, and the petals change shape like a human skull.

The scented scents were scattered, instantly turning into the smell of human carcasses. But it didn't last long. It takes 5 days, for the snapdragon to re-bloom and spread its fragrance.

While walking, the old man explained to Ace that what he was up against was not trivial.

He explained that the place was used by previous warriors to activate their chakra throat.

The old man also suggested to Ace that, when in front of the gate all the way to the gazebo, try not to create the slightest sound.

When we create sound, the petals of snapdragons one by one will be detached from the stalk and fly everywhere. Each petal of the flower, it will add a dry feeling in the throat.

The snapdragon flower garden is divided into two sides, separated by a walkway from the river's rock formations. At first glance, the rocks look dry and rough. However, when stepped on, it feels slippery and mossy.

The old man also said that, when it came to murgs, Ace had to meditate to reach his throat chakra.

The meditation process takes five days, without food and drink.

Upon hearing the old man's explanation, Ace fell silent. Just imagine the taste lasts for 5 days without food and drink. Wondering if he would lie in a coffin after this.

He wanted to feel backwards, but all this felt like it was at the tip of a nail. By having to enter.

Only 5 days. In contrast to meditation which is generally done by previous warriors which can be months to years, but it is in a different context. The previous warrior meditated for that long to gain new powers and skills. It is not to activate their throat chakra. When compared, maybe what is felt is still meningan.

Slowly and carefully, Ace stepped inside, setting his foot on the path. He saw, the moving snapdragon flowers waving in the wind. The money was patient, making Ace's heart feel calm and serene.

With a radiant face, while watching his every step, he tried not to create a sound.

He was getting carried away by the scented flowers. A very different fragrance, as if intoxicating to the kisser.

Long walk, suddenly Ace almost fell to the ground, because the stone that looks dry and rough, feels slippery mossy. Bend his legs, while balancing his body position. He looked left and right, not seen by any of the flower petals that were released.

While sweeping his chest, he continued his journey. Slowly but surely, by counting footsteps, ssttttt. He thought he would fall on the rock below him.

Luckily, he reached the bench near the gazebo. He hugged the bench firmly, and tried to straighten his body. Then he looked around her again. He did not see any flower petals coming off.

He decided to enter the gazebo. Who would have thought, a small mistake happened. Zzzzzzttt. He was knocked off the bench by his feet.

How else. This is the umpteenth time Ace made a mistake. With a gloomy face, he turned his head around, the petals began to fall apart, flying everywhere.

"Hufffhhhhhh.." said the ace in his heart, banging his head.

Lucky when the bench is rubbed, the sound is not too big. Only the part of the petal closest to the source of the sound is removed.

It's not much. But just one petal had already made the throat dry in pain.

While gulping and sweeping his neck, he walked to the center of the gazebo. He sat cross-legged in the middle of the gazebo, heading east, closed his eyes and tried to focus on the condition of a dry throat and pain that was very disturbing.

Sighing deeply, getting carried away. Apparently, the smell of snapdragon flowers is still felt, calming the feeling. Getting deeper.

At 17:35, Ace has been on the murgs for about 8 or 9 hours.

In front of the gate, the old man just stood in an unchanged pose, standing upright with both hands inserted into his sleeves.

"Hmmmmm. Maybe Ace is meditating right now. It's good to get back to rest." said the old man.
