KEEP BUANA (Rise of Darkness)

Sleeping Poison

Meanwhile, elsewhere away from Kedai Pindang the location of the battle of the Star of Hope members against the warrior Lamahtang.

The mysterious youth who was none other than Gentayu had reappeared in the valley of the seven Curups. It was the location the Seven Curtains sect was located at. There was a special mission Gentayu received with regards to the sect.

Previously, Gentayu had known the truth about his identity. Datuk Rajo Narako said that Gentayu was not born in this world. To be exact, he was a human who came from another world. A world different from the world he was living in right now.

Gentayu is entrusted to live in this world because the conditions in his world today are not too good. He is predicted to become a unifier of his home world that continues to be in conflict. But what kind of conflict and what kind, Datuk Rajo Narako did not touch him at all.

Datuk Rajo Narako just advised that he immediately improve his abilities before the big disaster comes. The disaster in question is the rebirth of the Dark King named Mislan Katili in the past.

According to the old man, Gentayu's body was very different from the human body in general. If humans generally only have 7 chakra points as a gateway to the entry and exit of energy throughout the body, then Gentayu actually has 19 similar points. Thus, his ability to absorb energy could be much greater than that of an ordinary human.

Another special thing about Gentayu's body and the people from his world is that, naturally, he already has a point as the center of gathering absorbed energy. This point is like a shelter. Energy coming from outside will be accommodated first at this point before being flowed to every organ of his body. Similarly, the excess energy that his body could not absorb could still be stored thanks to this gathering point.

It is also explained that the body of every person in the Gentayu origin world has something called the soul root. The roots of the soul itself have different basic elements in each individual that determine the achievement of each person to be different.

People like Rajo Narako, for example, are lucky enough to be born with only the element of fire on them. People who are born with one or two basic elements will usually become martial geniuses. The reason is that his ability will be honed more focused than those who are born with more than two basic elements at the root of his soul. This is because to utilize the natural elements it always needs enough energy.

Because it has the basic element of fire, Rajo Narako's ability will be very maximal when utilizing everything that has the element of fire. As a weapon, a defense or an energy source.

Gentayu himself, was born with a condition that was quite unique initially. He had the basic elements of fire and water at once at first. But it turns out that in the roots of his soul can also continue to develop other elements that previously did not exist. And I don't know the strangeness that will be encountered after.

That is, the condition of Gentayu's body is a rare condition. Rajo Narako even assures that in the future Gentayu can use any element available in this nature as long as it has an adequate amount of energy to control it. A fortune and a lack for him.

Rajo Narako then asks Gentayu to go to several places to secure the seals of the knights of darkness in the past, including the nine spirit balls. He had to successfully exterminate those seals and nine spirit orbs in time, when his strength was sufficient.

“Why didn't your own grandfather step in?” such was Gentayu's question at that time to Rajo Narako.

“For, if I were to descend directly then would I have to break through this realm. The moment I managed to break through it, then the power locked within the nine spirit orbs would also be able to break out. Because we ourselves are the form of the nine spirit balls.” that was Rajo Narako replied before Gentayu left the Valley of Memories.

His arrival back to the Seven Curtain Sect was in order to carry out the order.

In fact, on the fifth day the entire Star of Hope warrior had successfully settled within the royal fortress. Without any difficulty. They only had to give up some of the produce brought because it was taken by force by the soldiers. Though the luggage should be sold or as spare supplies. But that's a reasonable price for them.

The soldiers of each duchy themselves had begun to move around the fortress. Their numbers are only about six thousand. But they are just a distraction force. The core of the attack will be carried out from within the fort.

The Bones Mesuji duchy came first in four waves, followed by Serelo Pualam and Ujung Jambe. Their dukes directly led the army, they moved very neatly and were not detected as a war troop. Weapons and war supplies were all washed under raft boats through a river that was flowing not far from the fort. They then settled in villages around the kingdom whose inhabitants largely chose to evacuate within the royal fort.

There was a group of soldiers of the duchy who were assigned to poison the flow of water in the palace complex. This group consists of only three people. They deliberately came disguised as eel and frog seekers in the river outside the fort.

There is a small river that flows into the royal fort as a spring. The river originates from another dammed river and is flowed exclusively for the king, the palace family and the palace dignitaries including several warrior camps within the palace.

The three warriors disguised as eel and toad seekers set off as the sky began to darken. That is how it is for those who work like them. Eels and frogs are quite active at night, so night is the right time to hunt both types of animals.

“Hei! You people! What are you doing there?!” hardik a soldier who came to them with a torch and five colleagues. They saw three men who were tearing up the water that was reserved for the palace dwellers.

“Oh, forgive us sir warrior. We were just looking for eels and toads.” replied the moustached man among the three.

“You know, this is a restricted area! Sterile area of the activity of the population!” Snatch another soldier.

“Sorry, forgive us sir warrior. We didn't know it. There was no sign of a ban, so we got into this water. Forgive us. Then, we'll go.” Answer the man with a reasonable mustache.

In that place there is no sign that forbids anyone to enter it.

“Quick Go! But, leave your basket here!” Snatch that soldier again.

“Bbb... well sir.” replied the skinny man carrying a basket containing three eels and more toads. Pretend to be nervous and scared before leaving. The eels and frogs were not the result of their hunting, but they bought from traders in the village.

The soldiers of the duchy left the place with a big smile in the dimness of the night. They had successfully dissolved dozens of poison jars into that stream of water. The jars are not visible because they are buried in mud on the banks of the river.

The poison dissolved in that stream of water was a sleeping poison. Make those who consume it will not be able to sleep for days.
