Rajawali Sakti Swordsman

Angel Sungai Serpent Bag 2

The atmosphere in the Duchy of Galung kingdom is being overwhelmed with grief. It has been a week that Patih Giling Wesi ordered selected soldiers to search for a sailing ship carrying his daughter. To date, they have not received any news at all. In Pendopo Keepihan, Patih Giling Wesi was like a confused person. Stepping back and forth with a heart shrouded in anxiety. Suddenly his steps stopped. His eyes looked in front of the pendopo. An enlisted man walked on to Pendopo.

"Tamma, what's wrong?" ask Patih Giling Wesi after the guest approached saluting.

"Hamba received a report from some telik codename, Gusti Patih," replied the guest.

"Reply report!"

"Some telik password that I sent to find information about Putri Intan Kemuning, has returned this morning. It was reported that the ship carrying Putri Intan Kemuning was robbed by a band of Snake River Angels" the enlisted man said in a respectful manner.

"That's right!" furious Patih Giling Wesi. His molars to the point of shaking with a dead red face.

"The Snake River Angel Gang is very ferocious, Gusti Patih. It doesn't matter which ship will be targeted" the chief added.

"Gather the chosen soldiers, we're leaving right now for the Snake river!" patih Giling Wesi's.

"Sendika, Gusti Patih," the guest saluted, then stepped back.

Patih Giling Wesi rushed into his private room. His wife was astonished to see her husband's red face go out. And how shocked Patih's wife Giling Wesi was when her husband took the heirloom sword. It's been a long time since I touched it again.

"Kang Mas's...."

Patih Giling Wesi. He realized that his wife, Rara Angken, was in this room. His mind was fully focused on the safety of their daughter, so he did not realize that his wife had been paying attention to his behavior.

"What is the sword for?" ask Rara Angken. His voice was trembling with anxiety.

"I'll find Intan Kemuning" said Patih Giling Wesi.

"But why carry an heirloom sword?"

"Some have telik cipher reported that the ship carrying Intan Kemuning was robbed by the Snake River Angel Horde."

"Oh...!" Rara Angken held her mouth.

"Pray on Hyang Widi for the safety of our child," softly Patih Giling Wesi's voice.

"Intan, my son." Rara Angken could no longer hold back her tears.

"Dinda Rara Angken, there's no point in you crying. Pray that our children will be safe. The pirate was indeed ferocious, but my hunch was that Intan Kemuning was still alive. Calm your heart. I promise to bring back our son" Patih Giling Wesi said, stroking his wife's head and shoulders.

Rara Anken still sobbing. Her tears run down the river on her cheeks.

"I'm leaving, Dinda," said Patih Giling Wesi after taking a deep breath.

"Kang Mas..," said Rara Angken.

Patih Giling Wesi saw his wife crying. But his feet stepped firmly, swinging out of the room. While about fifty heavily armed soldiers were already lined up waiting for him in front of Pendopo. A soldier led a tall, burly black horse when Patih Giling Wesi arrived in front of Pendopo. Without much further ado, the famously brave trainer immediately jumped onto the horse's back in an agile gesture.

The soldiers rushed on their horses. Patih Giling Wesi immediately spurred his horse quickly followed by his troops. The swift footsteps of the horses rang out leaving a puff of dust rolling in circles. The accuracy was quiet again after they came out of the fortress accompanied by the eyes of some stunned guards.

"Yes...! Hiya...!" Patih Giling Wesi crammed his horse to make it even firmer. The shiny black horse snorted like a fast dart. The Patih Giling Wesi is indeed the horse of choice. No wonder the soldiers were left behind. They had driven their horses as fast as they could.

A village road whose left canary stood the houses of the people, they passed by. Everyone who was on the street immediately pulled over. They were astonished to see many soldiers who were already famous for their glory like going to war. Now a shop passed by. Everyone in the shop looked. But all that seems is a dust cloud.

Among the visitors of the tavern, sat quietly a handsome young man who was facing the wine jar. The young man did not feel bothered by the work of the training soldier who drove the horse quickly. Many people in the store wondered and wondered. The young man was wearing a shabby white vest. On his back perched a sword with a handle shaped head of an eagle. He is Rangga, Pendekar Rajawali Sakti.

"Like going to war only those soldiers," a voice sounded from the table not far from Rangga's seat.

Rangga glanced towards the voice. Two young people sat facing four urns of wine. From his clothes it can be guessed that they were the son of a wealthy noble. Or at least the son of the merchant.

"Unusually, Patih Giling Wesi participated. There must be something bad" said his friend.

"They're looking for Intan Kemuning's daughter!"

Everyone in the tavern looked up and stared at the direction of the voice that came suddenly. It turned out that an old geezer was wearing a tattered shirt with a red stick propping his body. The old man leaned against the tavern pole. From his walking stick and clothes everyone knew he was the Red Wand Sakti Beggar. But rarely do you know that his name is Aki Lungkur. Only certain characters know their real names.

"Sirr! You don't talk carelessly!" one of the two young men.

"He he he..," Aki Lungkur or the Beggar Sakti Tandang Merah just chuckled. He knew who the two young men were.

They're sons of royal courtiers. He was wearing a red shirt called Hanggara. The one dressed in green is called Rangkasa. They were just big young men with no guts. And everyone knows who Intan Kemuning is. The Flower of Reputation is the target and dream of the sons of nobles and royal courtiers. Indeed, the disappearance of Intan Kemuning has not been widespread except for the chosen soldiers.

"Your arrogance exceeds the height of the mountain, but your eyes are blind! You can't see what's happening around you!" Aki Lungkur muttered.

Red was on the faces of the two men. Clearly the words of the Red Stick Sakti Beggar were fixed on them.

"Ask the Gusti Rara Angken. If my words are wrong, you can cut my throat. But, if I'm right then I ask you to free princess Intan Kemuning from the nest of the Snake River Angel!"

After he finished his words, Aki Sungkur quickly jumped up and disappeared from sight. The murmuring sound sounded like a bee being patted on its nest. Sanggara and Rangkasa looked at each other. The words of the old man earlier could have been benign but questionable as well. It is hard to believe that the daughter of a famous patih with the nickname of the Lions of Medan Laga can be held captive by the band of Serpent River Angel.

Everyone knows that it really happened, so the pirate horde was not only faced with the soldiers but also with the magic figures of the martial world. Patih Giling Wesi has many friends from martial jungle figures. So if the news is widespread, it is not impossible that they will help Patih Giling Wesi.

Unbeknownst to the people in the shop, apparently two gangs of Snake River Angel were also in the shop. They heard Aki Lungkur talk and immediately put their feet up when the old grandfather disappeared.

"We must report immediately to the Princess," whispered one of them.

"True, Kakang Badil," said his friend.

"Recide your horse and we'll take a shortcut, Adi Gering!"

They also drove their horses quickly. And now the shop is quiet. One by one, the visitors of the shop went away from the place. Even the two arrogant young men had already left the tavern. Rangga was alone still sitting facing his desk. An old waiter and shop owner approached.

"Add more wine, sir?" The old man offered.

"No, sit here. I need a friend to talk to" said Rangga. The old man sat in front of Rangga.

********************

The sun is almost tilted to the west. Two horses raced into the forest at the foot of the Thunder hillside. The horsemen were Badil and Gering, two men from the Snake River Angel horde. Full of alertness, they jumped down after the horse they were riding stopped in front of the house made of wood. This is the headquarters of the Serpent River Angel. Badil hurriedly approached the door and knocked on it hard. When the door opened, both hands of Saka Lintang had been at the waist.

"What's wrong?" tanya Saka Lintang haughty.

"We have important news, Princess," Badil said, bowing his head.

"Say quick!"

"Taking care of.., Intan..," Badil half-whispered His eyes broke inside.

Saka Lintang frowned. He stepped two acts.

"So the two slaves had drinks at the Old Man's shop. There I saw a group of mounted soldiers led directly by Patih Giling Wesi," explained Badil when Saka Lintang had been outside the house.

"Then?" saka Lintang's insistence can already guess

"There was also the Red Stick's Beggar. The rascal knew that Intan Kemuning was here. He spread the news, Princess," continued Badil.

"You scared?" cibir Saka Lintang's.

"No!" suhut Badil and Gering together.

"Then, prepare everything. Welcome them!" saka Lintang's orders were firm.

"They are many, Princess," said Gering.

"They're just rats!" bentak Saka Lintang's. He heard an anxious tone to Gering's voice.

"Servant, Princess," Gering quickly bowed. He knew that Saka Lintang had snapped loudly.

When the two people had left, Saka Lintang rushed into the room again. He approached Intan Kemuning who was waiting at the hall in the middle of the room.

"What's Brother Latang?' ask Intan.

"There are rats trying to enter," replied Saka Lintang then sat in the hall opposite Intan Kemuning.

"Sli...?" Intan Kemuning did not understand.

Intan Kemuning began to understand. What rats mean is people. Not the real rat. Sometimes he has to think first to understand. That's Saka Lintang. It's not just his words that are hard to understand. His attitude is like that too. Sometimes rough, sometimes soft. But behind his rudeness, Intan Kemuning can see an impingement of frustration on Saka Lintang.

Actually I really want Intan to ask. But every time he would ask, in that moment his intention was undone. He was afraid that Saka Lintang would be offended. Intan Kemuning should be able to take care of himself and do whatever Saka Lintang wants.

"Why do you look at me that way?" tanya Saka Lintang is stared at continuously.

"No.., it's okay," said Intan Kemuning stammered. "I.., I'm just surprised."

"What are you surprised about?" tanya Saka Lintang's.

"Latitude Sister," slow voice Intan Kemuning.

"I...? Ha ha ha...!" Saka Lintang laughed.

Intan Kemuning was more confused to see Saka Lintang laughing out loud. His words are nothing funny. Why did he laugh like that? But in that laugh, Intan Kemuning caught a kind of bitterness covered up on the face of Saka Lintang.

"That's it, don't think about me! Most importantly, practice now. I see your empty-handed punch moves are steady. Deepen again to be more perfect," said Saka Lintang after his laughter subsided.

Intan Kemuning just nodded.

"Well, practice now!" the Saka Lintang Order.

"Where are you going?" tanya Intan Kemuning when Saka Lintang came down from the hall.

"To the outside! I'll come back if you're done practicing" said Saka Lintang. "Remember, after you've finished your inner strength training, come to life!"

Intan Kemuning nodded back. Saka Lintang stepped up and turned to Intan Kemuning for a moment. His lips turned back to see Intan Kemuning began to practice. His eyes watched before closing the door, then exited. Saka Lintang high bouncy then made a rotating movement several times in the air and perched sweetly on the roof of the house.

Surrounding views. His lips smiled to see his men were ready to wait for the arrival of the training soldiers. Saka Lintang's eyes stared straight ahead. It appeared that about ten people were walking towards the Snake river led by Codet. Behind them, ten people were led by Badil and ten more were led by Gering. Fifteen men stood guard at their headquarters.

Saka Lintang was a little amazed at Codet who was good at organizing his men. With a beautiful movement, Saka Lintang jumped down. As his feet landed on the ground, he again banged his body and perched on the back of his horse. Immediately he kicked his horse and then darted quickly to the Snake river which was not far from the slope of the Thunder hill of Saka Lintang headquarters today.

The Snake River is indeed beautiful to look at, but it harbors incredible ferocity. Saka Lintang had arrived at the Snake River before his men. His round clear eyes looked around the calm river. As calm as his current attitude.

Codet moved his hand upward when they reached the river. Instantly his men scattered into the bushes and behind the boulders. Now on the river bank there are four people left. They were all well trained in mastering the area around the Snake river. In an instant, there was no one in sight. They are like being swallowed up by the earth. Good at disguising yourself with nature!

"Listen...!" saka Lintang suddenly.

"Horse sounds," muttered Codet.

"Hm, who is he" muttered Saka Lintang.

The sound of horse pony legs is getting clearer. Saka Lintang frowned. He only heard the footsteps of one horse. His eyes immediately glanced at Badil.

"Hamba will welcome, Princess!" badil said understand the meaning of Saka Lintang.

Badil quickly jumped on his horse. The horse was immediately thrown. Quickly the horse ridden by Badil was no longer visible. Disappeared behind a grove of trees. Badil drove his horse towards the direction of the sound of the horse's legs. Suddenly pulled the reins of his horse and instantly his body shot high. His feet swiftly perched on a tall tree trunk. His eyes carefully went around. Suddenly his gaze fell on a horse that a young man was riding on. Two sword blades were perched on his back.

"Kala Srenggi" hissed Badil recognized the horseman.

Badil waited for a while until Kala Srenggi approached. Then he jumped down when Kala Srenggi was right under the tree that Badil was riding. Kala Srenggi deftly jumped off his horse when he sensed a dark attacker from above. Badil's sword immediately slashed but escaped. He's disappointed. Though he was sure the horseman would break his head struck by a sword. All that is found is empty space.

""Sliced!" grunts Kala Srenggi as his feet trail on the ground.

"You are also more cunning than me, Kala Srenggi," Badil replied.

"Who are you?' asked Kala Srenggi who was astonished to see her dark assailant know about her.

"I'm Badil. The Tigers of Mount Sinai!" suhut Badil haughty.

"Hm.., Tigers of Mount Sinai stray to the hill of Thunder," muttered Kala Srenggi sneered.

"What business did you come here for?" ask Badil.

"I'm just passing by" replied Kala Srenggi indifferently.

"No one is allowed to enter the hill of Thunder!"

"He! Since when do I...."

Kala Srenggi had yet to finish his words, suddenly Badil had attacked quickly. Kala Srenggi was somewhat overwhelmed avoiding Badil's swift and dangerous sword attacks. The Mount Sinai Tiger was not an empty name, and Kala Srenggi knew it. He quickly calmed in the air. His hand immediately pulled out his twin swords.

Sreth! The traaang! Two swords clashed in the air. The flames from the impact of the sword jumped along with the two people's banging. They are not just anyone. Without any difficulty, their feet had been tracing on the ground nimblely. The two people were both shocked and both felt a tingling sensation after their swords clashed. Now they are both preparing the next steps.

While shouting loudly, they again engaged in a fierce fight. Each wants to drop immediately. But until five moves have passed, no one has been pushed. Entering the next step is still balanced. Several times the tip of their swords almost met each other's targets. But everything can still be avoided.

Until one day, Kala Srenggi jumped back as far as two spears while inserting a twin sword into the holster on his back. Now the release of 'Red Poison Test'.

Seeing the opponent is exerting mainstay knowledge, Badil was not left behind with his mainstay science as well. They were already facing each other ready to attack with their respective magic.

"Yes...!"

"Yes...!"

The two men jumped together. Now their palms met in the air. A loud explosion occurred, followed by two bodies. Kala Srenggi fell rolling on the ground several fathoms. Badil is not worse. From his nose and mouth to the blood.

"Uhk!" Badil spewed out blackish-red blood. While enduring the pain in his chest, Badil tried to get up. Body staggered. Kala Srenggi also tried to stand up. From the corner of the bibimya flowed fresh blood. His left hand blackened by the 'Macan Mountain' study released by Badil.

"Damn! One of us should be ******!" geram Kala Srenggi's.

"Oh!" Badil just grunts.

Badil realizes that his body has been fed 'Red Poison' and his life will not last much longer. Kala Srenggi was. He's hurt bad. They're both wet. The recitation of each begins to lead to each other.

"Stop!" suddenly the sound of a shrill screeching scream.

But late! The two people jumped back and clashed in the air. Kala Srenggi again rolled on the ground. From his mouth spurted blackish viscous blood. He tried to get up, but instead fell down and did not move at all. Die. Both of his hands were burning. On Badil's side, it's more horrible. He was lying with his chest broken. Blood washes his body. Badil was killed instantly after his body slammed into the ground.

A blue shadow flashed and landed in the middle of the fighting arena earlier. He is Saka Lintang, then followed by Codet and Gering. The two men were shocked to see Badil dead with a broken chest. Saka Lintang was calm.

"Hm, Kala Srenggi," muttered Saka Lintang. The girl swung her steps towards the corpse of Kala Srenggi. Immediately observed and with the tip of his foot turned over the body of Kala Srenggi. It looks like his chest is burning. There were no wounds on his body. There was also no sign of Kala Srenggi being alive.

Saka Lintang took a twig, then pressed the chest of Kala Srenggi with a twig. Surprised also Saka Lintang when he saw the chest of Kala Srenggi who suddenly collapsed after being touched by a twig. Like being blown by the wind! That chest is now a large hole through to the back. What a terrible study 'Macan Gunung' released Badil.

"How's it?" tanya Saka Lintang turned to his two men.

"Dead," said Codet. "Bury these two bodies" orders Saka Lintang.

"There's no time, Princess. It will soon be dark" said Codet.

"Then leave it here!"

Without saying much, they left behind two corpses lying on the ground. It is tragic the fate of the bodies. No one was ready to bury him. But fortunately, Gering who was always together with Badil every day felt unbearable towards the corpse of his friend. He came back and dug the ground.

Saka Lintang just glanced, then continued his steps. He also ordered the body to be buried. Now even Codet is worried. He just stood with alternating views from Saka Lintang towards Gering who was digging with his sword.

"Mr Princess..," somewhat vibrated the voice of Codet. Saka Lintang turned his body. "Don't you...."

"Help her!" cut Saka Latang fast while pointing at Gering. Regardless of Codet anymore, Saka Lintang stepped quickly.

Codet rushed to Gering and helped bury Badil's body.

"Thank you" said Gering.

"Lord Princess who rules me" said Codet.

Gering looked at Saka Lintang who only saw the shadow of his clothes between the trees. Until they finished burying Badil, they had not spoken. Gering stared at the corpse of Kala Srenggi.

"Let him be a coyote!" codet Gering shrugged his shoulders.

They never take care of the enemy's body. Now with a relieved heart, they left the place. Leaving behind a friend who was lying on the ground.
