“You please go. But let go of Amel,” said Munding quietly on the sidelines of his breath that was still panting.
“Cihhh. If we let go of Amel. It's a waste of our efforts to do all this,” protest Nia.
“Then,” said Munding while again trying to stand without using any backrest on his back.
Despite his painstaking effort and still trembling body, Munding managed to stand up straight and put up his horses, preparing to use whatever was left of his body, “I risked my life to slaughter you as much as possible,” Munding said as he stared intently at Nia and the two people behind him.
Deg.
Yasin's heart seemed to stop when he heard Munding's words just now. The figure of Munding who was drenched in blood and stood with difficulty like a fragile hut that could collapse at any time was blown by the wind as if overlapping with a figure he was very familiar with.
The figure that Yasin greatly admired and idolized, not only Yasin, but all wolf fighters from their generation idolized the figure. A figure known for his bravery and toughness in fighting on the battlefield.
War commanders were greatly feared opponents and respected herds themselves. As a junior who was one level below him, Yasin and his classmates idolized the figure. The only Wolf Fighters were given nicknames not by their own herd, but by an entire pack of fighting wolves out of their respect.
Izrail, the Lifter.
Yasin forgot the pain from his left hand and held onto the shoulder of Nia who was standing in front of him, “let go of the girl, our lives are worth more than any money. We can still look for it later,” Yasin said slowly to Nia.
Nia was a little shocked to hear Yasin's words, but soon Nia nodded her head. After that a car stopped in front of them and in it looks Number Three driving it.
Nia glanced at Amel whom she had taken hostage then pushed him towards Munding. Amel quickly ran and hugged Munding, not caring about Munding's blood soaking his body and face.
Quickly, Number One got into the empty seat next to the driver and Nia picked Yasin up on the back seat of the car. Yasin then opened the glass door of the right car facing Munding.
“My name is Yasin, give my regards to your teacher. Tell me that I have always admired him from the past, until now,” said Yasin slowly towards Munding.
Soon the car drove away from Munding and Amel who were still hugging each other in the yard of Joseph's house. When the car left the gate. Munding suddenly fell backwards and sat leaning against Amel's black car behind him.
Munding's breath looked breathless, Amel who suddenly saw Munding became like that was feeling panicked, he quickly opened his car door and took the water he always carried in his school bag.
Amel then drank it to Munding who was still sitting in the yard and leaning. Munding's breath became a little regular after he finished the water in the bottle of Amel drink earlier.
“You're okay with Munding?” amel asked with a worried face.
Munding who after drinking had closed his eyes because he wanted to restore his stamina, opened his eyes after hearing Amel's words. When Munding looked at Amel, a smile fell on his lips.
Amel who received Munding's smile, lowered his head. After that, Amel confidently hugged Munding and they both collapsed in the yard of the house while leaning against a black car.

The red sedan driven by Number Three drove on the highway through the city streets. This is the car he got from the garage of Joseph's house and he used it to escape with his colleagues.
“Change the car to the designated place,” said Nia slowly from the back seat.
With a sense of anxiety on her chest, Nia repeatedly glanced towards the back of their car that was still traveling at full speed on the highway. Seeing her lover looking very panicked and always looking back to see if any pursuers were chasing them, Yasin shook his head.
“Nia,” call Yasin slowly.
Nia turned her head towards the old man who had been her lover for more than half a year, “ya Mas?”
“You why panic so? Can't you feel it?” yasin asked while pointing at Nia's chest with the finger of her right hand.
Number One and Number Three sitting on the front bench also fell silent. They were just as panicked as Nia for the past few minutes. They were afraid that the military would succeed in pursuing them.
Nia fell silent after listening to Yasin's words. And Nia also remembered again the process of awakening first and what the meaning of a wolf fighter that had been taught by Yasin, his teacher and lover.
Yasin then turned his gaze out the window. He took a deep breath and began to murmur softly, “from the hands of a genius will be born another genius.”
The three disciples who heard the Master's words fell silent. They did not understand what his words meant just now. Yasin was still silent for a while before he finally opened his voice, “I have guessed who the teacher of the boy was. No, rather, I know who the boy's teacher was.”
“Nia, you must have been a little disappointed when lately I asked you to release Broto Suseno's son to the boy right?” ask Yasin towards Nia.
Nia was only speechless, even though in her little heart she had felt a bit of annoyance at Yasin's request earlier. But of course he would not show it in front of his lover.
“I don't know how Broto got to know the boy. But I know who the boy's teacher is. His name is Ahmad Hanbal. Ahmad was a senior of one generation above me when we were still active in our herd first.”
“But. Our abilities are much different. Ahmad could even beat the seniors above the two of us very easily. He's a natural wolf fighter. From the beginning, he had already lived relying on his instinct.”
“Our training method is just a grindstone to sharpen its claws and fangs.”
“His match was terrible, when in his peak time, three initiated fighting wolves were needed to hold him to a draw. A one-on-one duel? People like me, just be dessert for him.”
“If from the beginning, the boy told me that he was Ahmad Hanbal's protege, I would be happy to comply with all his requests. But destiny says something else. And this is how we are now.”
“That is what I meant by those words. Only a genius like Ahmad Hanbal could educate a wolf-initiated fighter as young as Munding. A boy with abilities that are no less than mine.”
Yasin ended the story while holding onto his left arm which still hurt.
“We have arrived at the car exchange,” said Number Three slowly after the three of them were silent for a while.
Number One hurriedly got off the car and immediately headed to their new car and would be used on their long-distance journey to escape.
Yasin took a deep breath, “kalian,” call him to his three students, “no need to rush. Trust your instincts. No one is chasing us now,” said Yasin slowly while trying to get out of the car while being swept by Nia.
Soon a new Panther Grand Touring car rolled out with four people on board. The car left the city of Semarang via a toll road with a destination to the West.
Their long journey has just begun.
