Night Eagle Swordsman

Towards Kotaraja II

One day, on a large street in one of the city centers, Prince Pandu dressed in simple clothes like those worn by the common people.

This time Prince Pandu came out of the palace without being escorted by soldiers, so that he could freely enter all places, mingling with the people. This situation is very pleasant for Prince Pandu. Can be free, free to walk on the streets of the city or village, free to enter the market, enter the shop stalls and other places to sell, go to the village, going to a place of entertainment even a brothel, without having any rules from the palace that he felt was very restrictive and prevented him to be close and get along directly with the people. Although in fact, the purpose of the palace rules is good.

Until one day, Prince Pandu arrived at a large road that divides a village on the outskirts of Kotaraja. While enjoying the atmosphere of the village, suddenly there was the sound of screams and cries of women some distance ahead of him. The sound of crying was sometimes lost covered by the sound of the laughing voice of some male villains.

As Prince Pandu tried to approach and see him, Prince Pandu saw, there was a young woman who was being dragged by a man. While somewhat nearby, there was a young man lying down, seemingly having just been struck by two men standing beside his body.

"Hey you guys ! Let go of the girl ! Then go far away from me before I beat you up !" said Prince Pandu who could not stand the cruel actions shown by the three men.

"Don't interfere in other people's affairs, or you'll also drag me !" answer one of the criminals.

Prince Pandu stepped closer to help the woman who was being dragged. However, while still a few steps away from the woman, one of the male criminals attacked her.

"Don't you dare touch that woman !" shouted one of the criminals while darting attacked Prince Pandu.

Although a Prince, but Prince Pandu also mastered martial arts that he learned from the book in the palace library.

Although the way to learn it is just that, however, because the martial arts in the palace library is a high-level martial arts science, making Prince Pandu classified as a swordsman with a high level of ability.

When one of the criminals bounces then directs a kick of his right foot to the head of Prince Pandu, with a movement as if unintentional, Prince Pandu brushed it off with his left hand.

Paaaccckkk !

Due to a fairly violent impact, the criminal who kicked it rubbed his body and then fell sprawled on the ground.

This surprised the other two criminals, who then approached and surrounded Prince Pandu.

"You dare oppose us !" shouted one of the criminals approaching.

Then, without saying another word, the two criminals attacked Prince Pandu blindly.

Facing such a brutal and vile attack, Prince Pandu remained calm. Each attack of the two criminals was repelled with steady movement. Only requiring about ten moves, Prince Pandu managed to take down the two criminals.

"You either chose to leave or I had to beat you to the point of breaking all your bones !" prince Pandu.

Finally, having lost in silat and deep power, the three criminals chose to leave the place.

Meanwhile, without realizing it, there are two pairs of eyes that always pay attention to everything that Prince Pandu does. When the three criminals were driven out by Prince Pandu and ran away, the owners of the two pairs of eyes looked at each other and nodded.

The two immediately put on the face cover and then darted towards Prince Pandu. Without any words, the two attacked Prince Pandu using a dagger with a deadly attack.

Having not realized and understood what happened, Prince Pandu continued to avoid.

"Heeii ! You two ready ? Why are you guys just attacking ?" asked Prince Pandu a bit shouting.

The two attackers did not reply, even speeding up their attacks. Until in the end because of being gangred by two people who have high abilities, while Prince Pandu did not use weapons, making one dagger slash and one stab hit his body, although he tried to avoid it by throwing his body away. His right chest was hit by a dagger and a stab was lodged in his left abdomen.

Sraaattt ! Jleeebb !

Prince Pandu groaned in pain as his body was pushed back and fell on the ground injured.

Not yet had Prince Pandu stood up, the two attackers had bouncy high and then swooped towards Prince Pandu who was still sitting, with a very fast and powerful stab.

Because injured and still in a position not to dodge anymore, Prince Pandu finally fell silent resigned with his eyes closed.

Buuuggghhh ! Buuuggghhh !

In a state of closed eyes, Prince Pandu heard two blows hit the body. But it was not his body that was hit.

As Prince Pandu opened his eyes, he saw, both of his attackers fell hard and rolled. They felt his hands tremble and a hint of pain as they clashed with the hands of the young man who was fending off his attack. Prince Pandu saw also a dashing and handsome young man, standing nearby. Apparently, he was the one who repelled the attacks of his two opponents earlier.

Then, quickly the handsome young man approached him.

"Don't move much first. So that you don't bleed out!", said the handsome young man.

Prince Pandu tried to stare and see the young man even more clearly. Along with that, suddenly there were two soldiers running closer while shouting.

"Prince Pandu ! How did the prince get here ? We've been looking for the Prince since morning ?" ask one of the soldiers.

Prince Pandu saw two of his guard soldiers coming. But his eyes grew darker and darker, until finally, his body fell to the ground.

The two guard soldiers immediately approached the fallen Prince Puguh. They both try to help Prince Pandu.

"Stay lay him down. Let the wound not get worse !" said the handsome young man.

Meanwhile, the two attackers earlier, saw there was someone who was able to make them both thrown and plus the arrival of two guard soldiers, immediately looked at each other and then darted away.

The young man momentarily looked towards the departure of the two attackers.

"The moves they use are similar to the four royal soldiers who were yesterday in the Duchy of Randu Beteng building. Did they have anything to do with Prince Panji !" muttered the handsome young man who helped Prince Pandu.

But then, the young man immediately gave emergency assistance to Prince Pandu by doing tootokan tocotokan in several parts of the body and conducting internal energy distribution to Prince Pandu.

After his condition stabilized, slowly Prince Pandu roared from his stupor. When the eyes could see, Prince Pandu looked left and right, until he was seen, a young man who had helped him.

Meanwhile, when the handsome young man finished doing emergency help by stopping the discharge of blood from the wound suffered by Prince Pandu, out of nowhere appeared, on the road near where the fight took place there was already a horse carriage belonging to Prince Pandu.

Just as Prince Pandu was about to be lifted towards the horse carriage, he looked towards his helper youth.

"I hope you're willing to come to my place !" prince Pandu said to his helper youth.

The young man was surprised, yet immediately smiled while slightly bowing.

"But I'm not alone, Prince. There are two more friends !" answer the young man.

"That's no problem. Please bring your friend !" said Prince Pandu again, "Let's head for the train and leave immediately."

Hearing Prince Pandu's reply, arriving beside the young man stood a beautiful young woman and a grandfather who looked very old.

"Teacher, Rengganis' sister, incidentally, we can join the Prince's carriage. We will be safe during the journey to Kotaraja" said the young man.

"Good le Puguh! We can all hide inside the Prince's palace !" replied the old man who turned out to be the teacher of Puguh, Ki Dwijo.

Finally, Puguh with Ki Dwijo and Rengganis can go to the city safely and casually, maybe even be able to stay for a while to hide.
