KEEP BUANA (Rise of Darkness)
Your Fate has been Determined
Montawiraba glides down from space like a shooting star. His feet landed on the rocks, making the earth tremble slightly and smoke of dust and pebbles scattered.
Centini and Pandak Lima tried to protect their faces from being hit by pebbles and dust. While the crescent-tattooed Guard had to accept fate, it bounced far back as Montawiraba landed next to it.
“Master, forgive any misunderstanding that occurs between us. We of the Red Telegu, do not mean to offend the noble master.” Centini immediately approached Montawiraba and bowed respectfully.
But Montawiraba looked at them with a cynical face. Not at all unsightly. If not for his handsome face, it feels like Centini wants to scratch the face if he is able.
“Misunderstanding? Your men are trying to take orders from our Reksabumi and you say misunderstand?” Montawiraba walked over with a puffed up chest. His finger pointed towards the crescent-tattooed swordsman. Centini's bodyguard, whom he appointed, grimaced in pain trying to cut the wound from his stumped hand.
From the tone of his speech and attitude, it was clear to Centini and his two bodyguards, this man was deliberately looking for trouble.
“Does Marga Tanah want to deal with Red Telegu??” Centini was lured in by Montawiraba's provocation, he was not usually underestimated even though he realized the difference in strength between them was too far away.
The Land clan, although not long ago became a peg, but its influence and development that was too rapid made the groups, even the Sindur Kuntala kingdom Marga refrain from dealing with them.
During this time, the Red Telegu was considered too mysterious. How could a group led only by early-level Realm Swordsmen turn into a power that could not be underestimated.
Lemuria's martial world realized one thing together, that there was a powerful figure hiding behind them.
But, it seems that today the reputation built so solidly in all of Sindur Kuntala by the Red Telegu group is absolutely meaningless in the presence of Montawiraba.
“Hah? Not know yourself! You think we're afraid of a small group like the Red Telegu? Wrongly large.!” Montawiraba this time came closer with a suppressive expression.
The sky swordsman's peak aura immediately radiated from him, making the guts of the three people from the Red Telegu ciut instantly. They could obviously be killed with just a single flick of a hand!
Along with Montawiraba's advance, the surrounding rocky ground shook. Then, as if it had its own life, three stone pillars and earth formed behind each of the three Red Telegu warriors.
The stone pillars of the lands twisted, as if forming a braid, and instantly fired stone and earth knives at the Red Telegu warriors.
The crescent-tattooed warrior made an evasive move as fast as he could. Many times, his body was forced to roll after failing to do the back or somersault forward due to his now-unlocked arms.
Ten ground-rock blades that shot out lightning-fast in the tempo of two breaths were successfully avoided. However, the eleventh and subsequent knives could not be passed through him.
Two knives struck his thigh, piercing his bones out to the back side of his thigh, making the puffer fall on his knees.
His mouth could not scream even though the pain from the stabbing of the two knives was like creeping all over his body quickly. Another knife had stuck in his forehead, closing his chance of dodging as well as ending his adventure.
The swordsman died after a jolt of life for more than ten breaths.
Fate is not much different in the natural Pandak Lima.
The stockyard clumped in the air nimbly as dozens of blades shot rapidly towards him, barely visible.
Pandak Lima, can even survive when the scythe-tattooed swordsman has been dying. Apparently, as the fiercest swordsman he had excellent stamina and life-saving techniques.
The stone pillar that attacked him had been exhausted as it continuously shot out in small pieces as a blade. However, even after the stone-ground pillars ran out, a second pillar appeared right before Pandak Lima. Even the distance was only a meter less than his feet which were now treading the ground.
Pandak Lima immediately tried to get away from the second, rudimentary pillar.
The distance needed by the four pillars that now surrounded and closed the path of Pandak Lima with the appearance of the second pillar before was very fast. Less than a second!
Wiggling slowly as if lifeless, the five pillars joined together and locked Pandak Lima inside as the swordsman was intent on darting into the air.
His chest and head managed to escape from the ambush of the five pillars that interweaved themselves into a trap, but not with the lower half of his body.
‘KREPEK!’
‘KREPEK!’
‘CRACK!’
The sound of crumbling bones was immediately heard along with the twisting movements of the five pillars that were now twisting each other, snapping and crashing as well as the body of Pandak Lima in it.
“AAAAAHHK..!” Pandak Lima howled in pain.
Thick blood spurted from his mouth, along with the changing color of the rocks and the constantly moving ground crashing down his lower body. The rock is now red due to the blood of the destroyed body of Pandak Lima. The flesh of his body seemed to sag down from the sidelines of the rocks. Leave only the upper body intact!
A tragic death
The luck is better for Centini.
He did not resist or try to avoid. The girl kneeled down and took out all the treasures from her body. He was smart enough to realize that his chances of surviving were almost nonexistent.
The attitude of the chairman's daughter on the Red Telegu block made Montawiraba frown.
The man was smart enough to read the situation quickly. And so a moment later, the rock that was originally used to kill the woman had rapidly changed formation to grip the base of her arms, shoulders, groin, and all of Centini's organs of motion.
“Your fate, let it be decided by the person you offended!” Montawiraba said quietly, but it was quite audible for his senior who was watching him somewhere now.
He was just about to flip the body from Centini, when the rock that initially only trapped the girl now moved quickly to cover both the girl's hands and feet.
“AAAAAAAAKKKK!!” Centini cried out in pain as the rough rocks around him swung cutting the otters and his legs.
Blood spurted even on Montawiraba's back. The young man turned to look at the condition of his captive girl, then looked up at the sky on his right side.
“Senior has decided..” he said softly, but can be heard Centini who is now almost lost consciousness due to the pain he suffered.
Montawiraba bowed respectfully towards his senior who floated down smoothly, like the floating cotton that fell from his tree.
“Take all pockets, bracelets, and any treasures on their body. Make sure no one is spilled. I'd like to have a quick chat with this sweet girl.” Dana Setra bowed near Centini's head, then revealed the red veil the girl was wearing. Montawiraba soon explored every inch of his dead opponent's body.
“Lumayan beautiful.” He said after looking at Centini's face. The centini he looked at only grimaced with the pain all over his body. His eyes glared furiously towards Dana Setra. His face was red with angry teeth.
“Senior.. I found this.” Montawiraba half-screamed as he examined a pouch on the body of the Crescent-tattooed Swordsman. His face looked tense as well as surprised that could not be covered.
