Face In Painting

26 Edition Barrier

"Don't be afraid princess.that's the real appearance of the palace dwellers belonging to the Demon King Haryo at night-that's why you must be barred out of the room isn't it?" nyi Khendra said inwardly to Tara.

Tara who heard the explanation from Nyi Khendra was very frightened how not, the terrible creature in front of him was not like a normal human, his face was broken and rotting which gave off a very smelly aroma, which was very bad, there are also legs and hands that want to break.

Tara tried to suppress her nausea and fear while hugging Nyi Khandra's body.

"Let's let's go from here." Tara spoke suddenly Tara heard a woman's scream like a man in pain.

"Sss-who is Nyi?"

"Every night they have to eat fresh human flesh, humans who are not residents of the area here, so that they can stay alive until now this princess"

"Princesses never eat their cooking, do they?" ask Nyi Khandra.

"Never Nyi, I always eat vegetables and fruits only Nyi"

"Hehehe is why Seto's demons hate you because princesses can't be turned into Seto's slaves"

"Where are we going, Nyi? oya call me Tara, yes Nyi, I'm not Gayatri's daughter"

"We want to free the khorin from the daughter of Gayatri who was held captive with the body of the daughter of Gayatri, only she can activate the wind chakra from within you" explained Nyi Khandra.

"Where do they hold Gayatri's daughter?" tara asked confused because in front of her now only a field outside the palace.

"Prepare Tara, hug my body tightly and do not let go we will break the door" explained Nyi Khandra.

Although Tara was confused looking for the door that Nyi Khandra said, but she still did what Nyi Khandra told her to do, by hugging the body of Nyi Khandra who suddenly ran very fast forward.

Tara could only close her eyes and embrace Nyi Khandra's body because if she was a little off guard she could be sure she was released and fell.

Not yet exhausted the fear that Tara felt suddenly her body that hugged Nyi Khandra's body bounces upwards and like being sucked in a very strong whirlwind.

"Stay calm Tara and don't let go of your embrace" Nyi Khandra's voice sounded in a stern voice.

About 10 minutes of Tara and Nyi Khandra's body circling after the whirlwind, Tara finally felt their bodies land safely in a quiet room.

"Open your eyes Tara we have arrived" ordered Nyi Khandra again.

Tara slowly opened her eyes and looked around only pitch-black with no light at all.

"Why it's so dark" whispered Tara Lirih with a shudder of horror.

"Yes.let's go ahead"

After a long time they walked to a room that smelled of jasmine flowers very stinging.

The cowardly Tara immediately hugged Nyi Khandra's body.

"Nyi....is there any Kunti around us? or some other fairy" whispered Tara in a trembling voice.

"Mbak Kunti????!!!.....Kuntilanak you mean Tara?" ask Nyi Khandra.

"I-iiya Nyi"

"Hahaha...for the size of Seto and Haryo they do not use to guard his palace, they use demons that have knowledge above the Jinn Tara....relax here is a room that only Haryo and Seto can enter" explained Nyi Khandra.

"But it's so dark how do you see it?"

"Although we only have the wind, but we can make light with this" said Nyi Khandra who then spread her feet quickly on a rock below and began to emit small sparks.

Tara who saw that immediately tore off her clothes and she rolled up.

When the fire began to burn, it appeared that the room was a room of a beautiful ancient princess, the walls of the room and a room of the size of a very beautiful wood.

Nyi Khandra looked for a stick around the room and after finding it, told Tara to bring fire from her cloth to light the lights around the room.

After all the flaming lights were clearly visible in front of Tara an ancient mattress with white mosquito nets and white sheets lay a body figure wearing kebaya and wearing batik cloth like sleeping.

Tara involuntarily walked over to the bed to see who the figure was.

How surprised Tara was when she saw the face, because it had a face that was 100% similar to her.

But when his hand wanted to hold the body, he bounced and fell.

"Aduuduuuh.." erang Tara was in pain as she rubbed her ass.

Nyi Khandra who saw the behavior of Tara could only shake her head.

"Why can I have an employer who is timid, careless pisan" muttered Nyi Khandra.

"Stay away from there Tara, the body of the Princess has been closed a special glass coffin so that her body remains durable"

"Rubber? she sleeps on Nyi's mattress instead of a crate" Tara said as she stared in confusion at the antique wooden bed and Nyi Khandra alternately.

"Come here, Tara, help me free Khorin daughter of Gayatri, and then you can see the truth, because Haryo and Seto have been tidying up all these rooms, she said, so that for ordinary people can only see the state of this room just like a regular room"

Tara immediately obeyed Nyi Khandra's order to approach.

"You see that princess?" said Nyi while giving Tara instructions to see something in the corner of the room.

"Yes it's a mirror.now come closer to the mirror" he ordered again.

He followed to the mirror and looked at the mirror.

"What's in the mirror, is it the same as this room?"

Tara looked carefully at what was in the mirror and what was in this room.

"Sama Nyi.." replied Tara.

"Look more carefully"

Tara confusion everywhere the mirror reflects exactly the same what is in front of him just the opposite...ya tho ? everybody knows that.

But when Tara looked very carefully, Tara finally knew what Nyi Khandra meant.

"I know Nyii....ituuuu!!!!" peekik Tara excited.
