SAKYA PARAKA: THE LIBERATOR

The battle of Sakya and Sagara

Sakya and Karka leave the western forest after killing Durta. They ran as fast as they could south to get back to Mahan's place.

When they arrived, Mahan was already waiting at the branch of a large ulin tree.

 "I've completed the challenge" said Sakya, giving Mahan Durta's chidra.

 "I'm surprised you made it, I don't think Jagad Atma chose you wrong." Mahan watched Durta's black knight.

 "Well, I'm ready to help you on Pralaya's day. I'll give you a gift you can use on your journey."

Mahan then grasped the ksidra Durta. The light coming out from his palm shone on Durta's ksidra.

Sakya noticed that the shape of the originally spherical oblong ksidra turned flat and began to extend along one arm.  The light from Mahan's palm faded and revealed that Durta's chidra had turned into a sword that had one sharp side blade.

Mahan took a branch of Ulin wood and mounted it on the lower part of the csidra so that it became the handle of the sword.

"I give you this sword. I call this the sword ksidra. Perfect name, of course with your little brain you can't understand. Uh uh uh." Mahan laughed after throwing a sword at Sakya.

What a beautiful sword.  It was shiny black and transparent like crystal, sparkling when exposed to sunlight. The threads formed a unique size in the body of the sword.  With a perfect weight, not too heavy and not too light. Sakya tried to play her sword and felt her sword fuse into a part of her limbs.

"The "sword blade is made of ksidra so that it is stronger than a sword made of iron. You can split a tri praboditha easily, the sword hilt is made of Ulin wood from my thousand-year-old sari. The other name of Ulin wood is iron wood so its strength does not need you to doubt."

Mahan then takes one more branch and forms it into a sword sheath and gives it to Sakya.

"I thank you, Your Highness Mahan," said Sakya.

"No need, you have been instrumental in maintaining the balance of the Vanaya forest. You deserve it. What's your plan now?" ask Mahan.

"I will meet the other Vanaya rulers. I'll go east first" Sakya replied.

"Ah, you will meet Sagara. You better be careful! Know it? he's the most insane ruler of the jungle. His ego is bigger than his brain. Uh uh uh.... " Mahan gave Sakya a warning.

"Alright, thank you for your noble input. I'll always remember."

Before Sakya and Karka leave Mahan's lair, Mahan gives his magic mark Markata's face at the base of Sakya's left arm.

✤✤✤

Sakya and Karka continue their journey eastward.  The meeting of trees and shrubs hindered their journey. On the fifth day they began to enter the eastern Vanaya forest.

The vegetation of the eastern and southern parts of the plant is not much different. Everything is full of tropical plants. The only difference is the fog. In the southern Vanaya forest, the fog dropped throughout the day. As for the eastern part of Vanaya, the mist descends at night.

In the forest, there is always sattva. But in this eastern part, Sakya and Karka have not met any sattva.

What the hell is going on here? Karka sharpens his sense of smell to find the sattva. Not long after, Karka discovers a small group of sattvas are traveling southeast.

Sakya and Karka easily catch up to them.  Seven ayata sattva stop their journey when they see Sakya and Karka in front of their path.

"Do you want, you're gonna kill us?" ask brown ayata who is in front of the line.

"Greetings, we do not intend to interfere with your journey. We just want to meet with his majesty Sagara. Can you show me the direction?" sakya replied, a little bowing sign of respect.

"What do you need?" Ayata brown asked back.

"Sssst, we happen to be heading to his place. You can come with us" replied brown ayata. He allowed Sakya and Karka to come with them because he did not know he could beat them and even though they made trouble, His Majesty Sagara must have eaten them.

Sakya and Karka finally continue the journey with the ayata group towards Sagara's place. On the way, Sakya and Karka finally learn the reason why the eastern Vanaya forest is empty without sattva. This is because Sagara has called them to his place.

　

　

Something big has happened. Something belonging to Sagara has been lost stolen by Kacana the ruler of the Northern Vanaya. Now, Sagara intends to take hers back from Kacana. The war between the two Vanaya rulers will take place in the near future.

Not long after, they arrived in front of a large cave. Different types of ayata ranging in color and size are scattered outside the cave.

In front of the mouth of the cave a green ayata is the largest of all the ayata that are coiled while raising its head.

"Arda, I brought two people, they have news to tell Sagara." Ayata brown said after approaching Arda.

Arda then notices Sakya and Karka. Arda learns from Karka's aura that he is a tri praboditha. While looking at Sakya, she could not see Sakya's praboditha stage.

Arda is a tri praboditha, he is one of the strongest sattva under Sagara. Only a few living creatures could scare him. Now one more is the man who is in front of him.

Although Sakya looks like an ordinary human however, her instincts say that she is a strong one. There was a feeling of fear that appeared as he looked at Sakya's eyes. Right now Arda feels like he is on the edge of a high cliff, if he jumps, then he will die. Arda therefore decides not to make trouble with Sakya.  Arda prefers to stay still on the edge of the abyss rather than jumping into it.

"Who are you?" asked Arda, braving herself.

"Salam, I'm Sakya from Paraka and he's Karka. We look forward to meeting with the noble Sagara."

"Your majesty Sagara is busy with something. You can come after His Majesty's business is done,” replied Arda.

"Please tell your Excellency Sagara that we might be able to help resolve your Majesty's matter" Sakya replied, asking Arda for a chance.

"Help me? You think this powerful Highness needs help?" Sagara's voice was heard followed by his head and body coming out of the cave.

"really funny. A little creature like you thinks it can help this noble one."

Sagara notices Sakya and Karka. Suddenly he wagged his tail towards Sakya and Karka. Before Sagara's tail hit his body, Sakya put his hand in front of his body. ‘Buuk...’ Sagara's Tail hit Sakya. Sakya bounced backwards uprooting two tree trunks before rolling on the ground.

Karka experienced the same thing as Sakya, but she quickly turned her body and landed on both feet after toppling a tree.

Karka takes a swing to attack Sagara, but Sakya's voice stops her, "Karka stops, let me just." Karka retreated backwards. It's not just Karka. Ayata who filled the place outside the cave immediately stepped away.

Sakya got up from the ground and brushed off the ground attached to her clothes and pants.

"Looks like your majesty doesn't believe me with just words that I can help you. Come on, let's play around for a while until your majesty is sure" said Sakya, staring into Sagara's big yellow eyes.

"Sad... This noble one has no time to play with you. Die!" Sagara spat out the poison towards Sakya. He wanted to finish this fight immediately.

Sakya knows the liquid Sagara spat out is not an ordinary liquid. He channeled the prana in front of him forming a shield.

The poison liquid hit the invisible wall then decays on the ground, the smoke billowing thick with a powerful poison. Knowing his poison attack was not successful, Sagara launched another attack.  Fog suddenly came to blanket the area around Sagara's nest.

Sakya felt the dense fog descending, the visibility was only five steps and the longer it got smaller.
