Eps 42: Third Friend?

"Huh ...!?" Jaka and Maya are shocked to hear the woman's words, while Daya is only dumbfounded to hear them because she does not know what the Seda tradition is.

"Since when has this tradition been done again?" jaka asked with a look of surprise to ask the right guard woman.

"Since a few days ago, the Elder of the Swordsman has been given a mandate by the King to perform the tradition of the Seda."

Maya and Jaka were silent at the explanation of the right guard woman. Maya was speechless, only her legs seemed to be moved like she was thinking about something in the future. Daya who is confused what is the tradition of Seda disperse the Mayan and Jaka daydreams with her questions. Finally Jaka told Maya to explain to Daya briefly what the Seda Tradition is,

"So gini, Daya. In short the Seda tradition is a hereditary tradition carried out by the Elders of Swordsmen to raise a great percentage or number of warriors. This tradition has been proven to be able to create strong warriors, but because of the difficult test resulted in only a few warriors who managed to escape. Because the Kingdom in the past preferred quantity over quality, as a result this tradition was eliminated and somehow this tradition is again held on this day!" maya was serious.

"Tsk .. troublesome only. It seems like the King is planning to produce a powerful swordsman again!" timpal Jaka was upset as he shook his head.

"What kind of tests will we face?" tanya Daya was curious about the test she was going through.

But Jaka and Maya just shook their heads while bowing their eyes. Seeing the nature of Jaka and Maya, Daya concludes that they do not know what kind of test they will face. While they were still busy pensively thinking about the test they were going through, Daya was surprised by a hand pulling her shirt while saying,

"You're Power, right?" A woman said to him in a very soft voice.

Sensing his clothes had been pulled and hearing a voice calling out to him, Power immediately turned his gaze towards the direction the voice was coming from. As Daya turned her gaze away, a woman of her age was standing before Daya. His clothes were white with black trousers typical of fighting clothes that were often worn by a female swordsman. His face was slightly taper with lips bristled and sparkling eyes looking towards Daya. The woman's skin was pure white with long straight hair dangling until the back was tied a horse did not escape the bangs that covered her eyes a little.

While confirming the position of the bow that was on her back, the woman again asked in a pleased tone,

"You're really Power, right!?"

"Ah .. yes, my name is Daya." Daya looked at the woman with a confused look, Daya composed her memories trying to remember who the woman was standing before her.

"Yesn ...." Knowing the man standing before her was right was Daya, the woman immediately hugged the body of Daya tightly.

Maya, Jaka even Daya himself was shocked when the woman hugged the body of Daya. The moment the woman had let go of her embrace, Daya asked, saying,

"I'm sorry, have we met before?"

The woman's reaction instantly turned dark knowing that Daya had forgotten about her. With a sullen face the woman said,

"Thc ... Power forgets me!?"

"I'm sorry, I can't remember that."

"I'm Livia, Daya! Time forgot about it." Livia who pulled the Daya shirt softly with a pouty face that looks very adorable.

"God ... Livia!? You're different now, my pangling is made." The force that had remembered the woman before him instantly returned Livia's embrace.

Seeing Daya and Livia embrace each other, Maya felt a tight feeling in her chest.

"So it's getting pretty, right. Hehe." Livia said with great confidence.

"Ah .. By the way they are my friends. This man with a sinister face is called Jaka."

"Dam!" Jaka who felt insulted replied to Daya's words and hit her hand slowly.

"Then this woman's name is Maya!"

They shake hands and introduce each other. As Maya shakes hands with Livia, Maya lets out a forced smile.

"Would you and your friends sign up to become a swordsman when the Seda tradition will be held?" Livia asked with a look at Power's eyes.

"Ihh .. what a coincidence. I want donk to be my best friend Daya!"

Hearing Livia's request, Daya looked towards her friends. Jaka raises his shoulders while Maya just smiles at the knot looking towards Daya. Finally Daya decided to talk to her friends, after a few minutes of deliberations it was finally decided that Livia could join them. Hearing Daya's words, Livia was very happy and hugged her back. Livia's joy was broken by the voice of the right guard woman from earlier

waiting for Power with an angry tone,

"Akehmmm! Do you want to sign up or not? If not, please get out of front of me!"

Hearing the right guard who was angry, they were forced to register themselves as a prospective swordsman by writing his full name on a registration paper. After they wrote down the name, the right guard lady stamped the paper with the logo of the Green Dragon Kingdom.

The Calder paper says,

Here below, we the candidates for the swordsman nominate by name and member:

adi Madanu - Daya Adi - Test.

- Jaka Nasiri - No.

- Maya Revina - Test.

- Livia Goddess Andhini - Test.

(Jaka did not take the exam to become a swordsman because he had become a swordsman.)

We swear that the name we have listed is true and we are prepared to bear all the consequences.

"Next you just have to follow the orders written on the back of Calder's paper, may you escape!" said the right-hand guard lady in an impressed tone implying the opposite of her words.

While on his way out of the Swordsman Union, Jaka read the letter carefully and said,

"I never knew your long name until today, Daya! From now on I will call you Danu! That name is better to hear in my ears, hahaha!" Jaka said seriously with a big laugh at the end.

"What about you guys?" timpal Jaka asked Maya and Livia.

"I'll still call him Daya, Jaka!" Maya said steadily.

"The one who saved me was Daya, not Danu!" said Livia while holding a spoiled Power arm.

"Saving? Power ever saved this woman?" maya's mind tangent to the words that Livia uttered.

"You Daya or Danu, it's my name anyway, haha." Daya said while trying to release Livia's hand, but Livia refused. Maya who saw Livia holding Daya's hand could only bite her finger in annoyance. Maya had never felt this way before.

"So what should we do next, Jaka?" Daya asks Jaka with a hand that is still trying to let go of Livia's gang.

"Hmmm .. maybe this will take a short but frustrating time."

"What's that?" Maya asked curiously.
