KEEP BUANA (Rise of Darkness)

Escape Journey

After the short fight was over, the mysterious young man was intending to meet Danu who was still sitting weakly holding his stomach. Apparently, in the previous fight the swordsman of the Golden Sun was hit by a fairly severe weapon. It was his survival instinct that forced him to continue fighting until his life was saved by this mysterious young man.

“Kisanak, are your injuries severe?” the young man asked Danu's wound condition with a face full of worry. It was obvious in his eyes that the condition of the swordsman he was helping was getting worse over time.

“Hah.. heh. te. rima..love, kisaak. Who. ki.. ki. this..“ instead of answering, Danu asked back the identity of his helper with one breath and getting weaker.

“I Gentayu..” His reply was brief and immediately crouched down checking on Danu's condition. Apparently, weapons that hit it in addition to the internal energy also contain deadly poison.

“Master, gen.. tayu. please.. se... lamat.kan.” Danu did not have time to finish his sentence. Another arrow has been stuck in his temple through the batok head along with hundreds of arrows that were not able to be repelled by the two. The fighter was killed instantly with his hand pointing eastwards where he picked up the death.

The arrow attacks did not stop just more and more. Gentayu was then immediately busy fending off hundreds of arrows that seemed to not stop sliding from the north side where he stood. Noticing the many enemies that attacked after he knocked down the two foreign warriors who had invaded just now, without wasting any time the wagon immediately looked for a gap to escape again. Fighting that many teams is not a good idea, he thought.

“Stop that rancid boy..!!”

There was a loud sound of the commander of the assault force immediately emerging from behind the bushes along with about twenty warriors carrying arrows and several swordsmen. However, the ‘bokah tengik’ in question has managed to escape.

“Fucking shit! Water Cat! Where did the boy disappear to??” a swearing and a vent of annoyance immediately came out from the commander's mouth.

They then immediately passed by in annoyance after searching around the place and did not find the quarry. The group headed towards the Golden Sun. Leaving four bodies in the place just like that even though two of them were their own comrades.

Meanwhile, Gentayu, a mysterious swordsman who was previously involved against the invading forces, has managed to find a small child with his tiger. The little boy was the son of Bandu Aji, the successor of Ki Brajawana the Golden Sun Swordsman. Unfortunately, when it was discovered the boy had been killed with an arrow stuck on his back. The tiger itself is no less sad because his feet turn blue and another arrow stuck there. But the tiger is still alive.

No wait for long, the tiger's body was almost the size of a calf without problems. However, just as he was about to leave the place fearing that his pursuers would not let him off the hook, a heavy voice shocked him.

“Master..”

Celingukan Gentayu tried to find the source of the sound that seemed very close.

“Master... I'm at. here.”.

Gentayu was startled and immediately released both hands that were carrying the tiger. It was the tiger that spoke.

‘Gedebugh.!’

There was a sound like a heavy object falling to the ground when the body of the poor animal had to fall to the ground because the rescuers were surprised.

“Ugh...! Sick...! Hey mister..you're strong, but kagetan.” the tiger was between swearing and complaining.

“Bb..bb..how... can you talk??” asked Gentayu with eyes glaring in disbelief.

“Mr. please.replift this arrow. Then stick your.. your hand on. my forehead. But between my eyebrows.when we don't. much...” the strange tiger gave a hint to Gentayu.

Gentayu soon regained his senses from his shock. Without asking and waiting, the tiger immediately followed the instructions.

The arrow that stuck in his leg had been plucked. Gentayu then attached his hand to the point between the two eyebrows of the tiger.

“Then what else?”

Gentayu asked for further explanation.

“Good. Flow. air.. pure.. mister. when it feels... there is something... that goes in. to the blood stream in the hand. sir, please. don't. in. opponent. You... will.. tau.. and. get.. its benefits...” the tiger again explained with a weak wheezing breath.

“Good!” Gentayu.

Curiosity and worry soon suppressed it. Then immediately do a hint from the tiger.

Gentayu closed his eyes. He transmitted pure air from his body to the point between the two eyebrows of the tiger. At first, he felt nothing. But over time, there was a chill starting to creep from the tiger's body towards his palm, then up to the wrist, up to the elbow, and stop at his upper arm.

“What is this?” The young man intended to ask the tiger a question, but the tiger had closed its eyes. Breath ceased. The tiger is dead..

“Mr..”

Suddenly the tiger's voice came back. But this time it was very good. Without breath and pain.

“Master, do you hear me?”

The tiger's voice again rang out, but this time it was definitely not from the tiger's body that started to stiffen on this ground.

“I.. yes.. I heard you” was a bit nervous Gentayu replied in confusion.

“It is better that you leave here immediately. The mob of assailants may still be chasing. Not safe here”

“Good.” Gentayu answered briefly and with his magic immediately darted away agilely between the branches of trees and shrubs in the forest. Only looks bright shadow without visible form. Ordinary people would think that he was a ghost.

After a long time, the gentayu finally arrived at the edge of the river. The river is quite large because from the upstream and downstream occasionally passing large boats with various loads of earth and passengers. The young man's eyes were then fixed on the row of boats with flags fluttering.

‘Ah.. judging from the flag, it must be the boats used as a means of transporting hundreds of members of the black flow group that attacked the Golden Sun college.’ Gentayu then smiled after thinking for a moment.

‘I better not waste this opportunity. The boats numbered no less than 50 ships. But the guards were all no more than 30 people. They're too confident’

Yep. Gentayu was currently thinking of incapacitating the boat guards, damaging and burning their boat, and looting its contents.

Gentayu thinks that for a group of troops who carry out a mission, must be equipped with adequate resources. At least the food, medicine, and of course the loot from the attack that had been done before attacking the Golden Sun. ‘I'll be rich’ thought.

“Mr..” again heard the voice of the tiger.

“now I'm in my original form. Yes, I am a spirit who happens to be confined within the body of the tiger. Now I'm sitting in your arms in the form of 2 tiger stripes. You can use my powers. Don'worry. My voice can only be heard by mister-just”

“Eh, what? Using your powers? Can't you protect yourself so you die by those arrows?” Gentayu said his ally and was impressed to mock the spirit of the tiger.

“Eh, sir.. I was weak in the body of the tiger. After all, that body is a seal to my power. Aaaah.too long to explain. Just look. Sir channel a little inner energy into the master's arm. Then, point to those boats, by calling ‘Dragon Fire’ Box then you will know..” The tiger spirit replied and explained with a slight annoyance.

“Eh, what? Fire Dragon Fist? Are you not a tiger?” Gentayu again giggled amused to hear the name of the style that must be practiced.This is like a cow's milk advertisement but the picture bears with a dragon ad in modern times, of course.

“Lah.it's my khan. I like to call it what.!” The tiger spirit snorted in annoyance.

“hehehe. Let's see your skills.”

Moments later..

“Fire Dragon Boxing!”

A bright white light of considerable size shot from Gentayu's fist towards the boats moored on the river bank. Gentayu is currently pushing his manager from the left of the tethered ship.

‘BLARR.... BRASHHHHH......!!!’

The sound of a powerful explosion was heard as a bright white light slashed through the hull of the ship. It turned out that the light did not stop after the hull was destroyed in a charred condition and then burned. But the dazzling bright white light actually grew and continued to accelerate until more than 15 ships experienced destruction on the hull.

Gentayu gawongo saw the impact of his unexpected attack would be so great because the power in the flow is actually very small. It should not even be enough to subvert a novice swordsman.

Different conditions experienced by the crew of the boat that is awake. They were flailing in panic. Some fled to the forest on the river bank so surprised to find a sudden powerful attack.

While some of those on the boat did not have time to save themselves had to die in a state of charred bodies burned or immediately became ash. But most of them are those who were seriously injured by the debris of the boat that exploded.

“Quick sir, finish them off now. Use my power once more to destroy the rest of the ship. The rest, you know what to do” exclaimed the tiger spirit then, breaking Gentayu's shock.

“Good.” Gentayu immediately ran closer towards the burning boats. The goal is not on a boat that has been destroyed and burned, but on the rest of the boat and other ships that are still intact.

“Fire Dragon Boxing!” it's exciting once again.

The back of the white beam was larger and more dazzling with the roar of a louder sound hurtling at twice the speed of the first strike. Soon the rest of the ship suffered a worse fate. But the crew fell victim to fewer because they had stepped aside during the first attack.

Gentayu immediately moved quickly to plunder the entire contents of the ship that was still safe in ‘dock impakan’. All the loot was then transferred to a boat that was deliberately left unbroken.

Realizing his movements, several warriors who had run to save themselves returned with the intention to dispel the young man. But of course, their guts had been shrunk before they could attack when the young man without turning his head and while continuing his looting re-directed the Fire Dragon Fist to the crowd of black stream warriors.

‘WRRRRRR.... WHUSSSS.... BLARR...!!

His punch shook the ground where the black streamers stood about to attack, leaving a 5-wheel chariot pit with billowing smoke. While the warriors who were about to attack bounced with a charred body. The smell of grilled meat immediately gushed into the air.

After the loot was completed and the boat was fully loaded. Gentayu immediately fled his boat towards the downstream of the river.

“the attackers would have been shocked to find out that their food and property supplies were burned out. At least, they have to rob again if they want to eat or they will starve. lord!”

“Don't if their ships and logistics were intact they would also still rob along this river? Let it. At the very least, the chances of the passing merchant guards to win in the fight were greater. They are more likely to be able to survive against the warriors of hunger and fatigue after fighting. And of course, even if the merchant guards were defeated, the loot would still not be enough to eat so many people. At the very least, we make them conflict scramble for food”

Gentayu drove along with his ship containing loot in medium speed. The sails used as the booster of the ship are expanded. Soon the night will come. The young man felt extremely exhausted mentally and physically. There are too many deaths today. Too many fights. And there will be a lot to consider in the future.

The boat continued sailing down the river in the dark of the night. Gentayu soon fell asleep and put his ship on the wind and sail of his ship. Until just before dawn, the boat stopped when it hit something. The collision was hard enough to wake Gentayu.
