Ivory Distilled Knight

Java Dwipa

In a fairly crowded port, there are fishermen who are busy transporting the results of the sea, there are also those who are waiting for passengers who want to cross,...

on the hill close to the port, there was a flute that was so melodious that anyone would fall asleep when they heard it, a beautiful tone as if spreading peace and comfort into the recesses of the heart,..

on a large enough stone a young man in a yellow robe sat cross-legged while blowing a flute playing a melodious rhythm alongside the beauty of nature, the young man was Hanuraga himself..

when he finished playing the flute given by his teacher, Hanuraga looked at the harbor below, then he went to go there..

when he got below, he looked at the frenzy of fishermen peddling fish caught today, Hanuraga continued to step while watching the many boats that lined up neatly..

"sorry sir, do you want to buy fish? if so, let me just get some pretty big fresh fish.."

a fisherman approached Hanuraga while offering him a fish..

"oh.."

"sorry I was about to cross over, sir, do you know where I can rent a boat?"

"ooh I thought you were looking for fish..

you just go near the palm tree line, there's a place to cross, maybe soon there'll be a boat leaving.."

"thank you, sir..."

Hanuraga immediately rushed to the place the fisherman had appointed..

when they reached the place in question, Hanuraga had been invaded by the owners of the ship, they fought each other while showing their boat..

"sorry sir, is there a boat leaving now?"

"where are you going, son?"

a fisherman asked and wanted to take Hanuraga on his boat..

"i'm going to Java Dwipa sir..."

the fishermen looked at each other and immediately left Hanuraga, one of them even told Hanuraga to undo his intentions..

in the confusion Hanuraga could only smile bitterly at the fisherman's behavior, "so they scrambled for me to be his passenger, now I'm just left out, what really happened..."

Hanuraga could only exhale, just as he was about to turn around he saw a person who was still standing not far from his place, that person was a tall stout with jet black skin..

the man approached Hanuraga...

"lady I heard you were going to Java Dwipa, is that right?"

"really sir, I was about to go there, but when I looked for the ship that was going there they just left.."

looking at the plain face of hanuraga the man chuckled softly..

"their son will not dare to take you there, oh introduce me Jaraga, are you from Java Dwipa son?"

"i just want to travel there sir, my name is Hanuraga, so is no boat going there?"

"know son, they don't dare to go there because there are often pirates who come in the way, they are very cruel to the hunt, if you want to go there you can ride on our ship, how?"

Hanuraga seemed to be thinking, he had not had time to say, the man had spoken again..

"don't be afraid son, we don't use small boats, but rather large ships, there are also dozens of warriors that our master hired as bodyguards.."

"alright then I want to hitch a ride on the master ship, how much do I have to pay?"

"hemm... Can you stand up, son?"

"looking at your clothes you seem to be a student of a silat college.."

"hahaha I can only be a little master, .."

Hanuraga was unwilling to boast that he was the youngest elder at the moment due to his high scientific ability..

"alright, you don't have to pay son, but you can join our bodyguards, let's just say you're protecting the ship, how, let's decide because we're leaving soon.."

Hanuraga agreed and immediately joined Jaraga on the ship,

Hanuraga was quite amazed to see a fairly large ship, it was a merchant ship that immediately headed for Java Dwipa..

while on board Hanuraga was introduced to the young master of the ship's owner..

"son come with me,"

Jaraga knocked on the door

"master servant wants to face.."

"come inside.."

there was the voice of a young man who was quite authoritative from within..

when he arrived inside Jaraga immediately saluted..

"servant sir brought a man who will also escort us, to introduce yourself," Jaraga told me..

"ah yes..

sir my name is Hanuraga, thank you for being allowed to ride on your ship,

"cnp ....

looks like you're so young, can you do martial arts?"

"i can be a little sir.."

"alright, you can come, but as long as you're here you'll have to protect my ship..

hemm your name is Hanuraga, right?"

"right sir, I want to go to Java Dwipa continue the journey.."

"hemmm... My name is Tian Shi, so you are a traveler, I like that, in my country many young warriors are traveling to find experience how hard the martial world is, well you can go out, so you can go out, oh yeah Jaraga take Hanuraga to the guards' quarters.."

Hanuraga jan Jaraga immediately left after saluting..

"so lord Tian Shi is a person from the land of tiongoan (china) huh?"

"right boy, he's a rich merchant, let me tell the guards.."

when we got to the back of the ship, there was a room that was quite spacious and contained several beds arranged, it seemed that some burly men were sitting down to enjoy wine and some food..

when Hanuraga entered with Jaraga all eyes were on Hanuraga..

"master swordsman, we have additional new members for a while, you all treat him well,.."

"son mingle with them, I go first, I have a lot of business to do.."

when Jaraga was gone, Hanuraga immediately entered and saluted, saying,

"greetings to the warriors ...."

"it looks like something's wrong with Lord Jaraga's head, why is he recruiting young people as bodyguards.."

one of the bodyguards chattered while glancing at Hanuraga..

"let's just say, more people are better..."

"hey son, come here we sit together.."

the head of the bodyguard called out to hanuraga while thrusting a jug filled with wine..

"sorry sir, I can't drink.."

hanuraga refused subtly....

"hahaha...you can't drink yes son, this wine is so delicious, ..."

many warriors were looking at Hanuraga with disdainful gazes, ..

one of the bodyguards approached Hanuraga, "your son coming in here is not free, you have to pay us to keep you safe.."

Hanuraga smiled then said,

"your master, what are the robbers' guards?"

the bodyguard who approached Hanuraga was offended, ...

"heh son of us bodyguards are paid dearly by master Tian Shi, so if you want to join you will also have to pay as our new member.."

"sorry sir I don't want to join, I'm just hitching a ride here.."

"just the same, you've been sitting here so there's no other choice, the head of the bodyguard replied with a cold grin.."

"then if I still don't want to then what?"

"don't regret it, son...."

as Jaraga was passing by, he was startled by the noise of the bodyguard room, afraid that something might happen Jaraga immediately rushed over and opened the door, but he was a little surprised when he saw all the bodyguards with bruises on the face, some were holding hands while grimacing..

"what's going on, why are you hurt?"

"ah we're just doing introductions to Lord Hanuraga.."

the head of the guard replied while grimacing and frightened..

"true lord Jaraga, I was invited to meet in my own way" said Hanuraga who was still sitting in the same place with a smile..

"hemm.. all right, I'll go first.."

when Jaraga left, all the bodyguards looked at Hanuraga in horror, they could not see his movements but they were already battered..

"can be a little martial arts"

the head of the guard muttered in annoyance...

not long after their ship docked in the face of obstruction, not even a pirate who became a frightening specter appeared..

Hanuraga got off the ship, and after saying goodbye he left immediately..

when in a quiet place Hanuraga darted and jumped into a hill, he looked at the land in front of him, I have arrived, time for adventure.....
