Star Dragon Swordsman

Ki Jagalang

When the grandfather's punch almost touched Walangka's body, suddenly a figure darted quickly while throwing a wooden stick.

The grandfather drew his attack and jumped back realizing the stick approaching him contained a great amount of inner power.

The figure of the body moved very quickly and within a few seconds of being in front of the grandfather, his palm touched the grandfather's chest while releasing his inner strength.

"The energy site in flying fish." The grandfather's body bounced into the air before smashing into the sky of the cave.

"You again." The grandfather's face was visibly irritated the moment he saw that his arch-enemy had found him after he had been hiding for decades.

"It turns out you're here, Durga, then we'll just finish our business here." Said an old geezer who looked the same age as the geezer. The grandfather was wearing a white robe with a wooden stick in his hand. He was seen preparing to attack the grandfather back.

"I'll let you go now but don't expect to get away from me again." Said Durga with a threatening tone to Walangka and Ki Karsa before suddenly disappearing.

"Haah, he's running away again." Said the Grandfather sighing.

"Sorry, it's you." Said Ki Karsa while looking at the grandfather.

"Karsa, it's been a long time since you've met, it seems like your strength hasn't increased huh." Reply Ki Jagalang then walk towards Ki Karsa. He lowered his body a little and then took a few parts of Ki Karsa's body.

"Haha, as usual you're always reliable." Said Ki Karsa after feeling his back was not cramps, he also embraced Ki Jagalang. "Let's go to your house."

Walangka who saw his grandfather so familiar with Ki Jagalang, thought that he was the one who meant Ki Karsa was able to help him. With great difficulty, he tried to get up and walked closer to the butcher Ki.

"Honor to the elders." Walangka bowed her body in salute.

"There's no need to be too hesitant, the wounds from the fight have not healed yet, right?." Ki Jagalang brings a warm smile. He then invited Walangka to come to his house.

"It is with great pleasure that the elder." Answer the polite Walangka.

He did not want to offend his teacher-to-be, because he thought that if he studied with a strong man like Ki Jagalang then his grudge against the ash hyena sect might be more easily avenged.

"This kid is very polite, what he's planning." Mumbled Ki Jagalang suspicious.

. . .

Mount Karacak is a lush mountain filled with many plants and trees. Various rare plants that are useful for health and to increase energy in growing very fertile here.

This plant is what attracts the attention of Ki Jagalang and Mpu Mpu other keris makers to build a kris forging society on this mountain.

This group is called Siwanetoro. Its name is taken from the name of the chairman of this association is mpu Siwanetoro, a legendary keris maker whose name has been spread in the land of Jawata. Ki Jagalang himself paid respect to him.

Most of the heirlooms buried in Karacak forest are mostly made by him. The heirloom he made was very powerful and each one had a waiting spirit.

When Mpu Siwanetoro was killed by assassins, Mpu Durga was the hardest hit.

Slowly the land, his disappointment turned into hatred, hatred for all the warriors in the land of Jawata.

The hatred led him to establish cooperation with a guardian spirit of Mpu Siwanetoro's creation in the form of a snake.

They unite and make Mpu Durga become a half-snake man or commonly referred to as a demon. But one day he realized his mistake and turned his hatred into the spirit of the serpent.

He was also crazy and attacked whatever he saw no matter the opponent or friend. The Mpu tried to stop him but Mpu Durga always managed to escape.

Due to the age factor, the other Mpu Mpu one by one died and left only Ki Jagalang and Mpu Durga.

Currently, Ki Jagalang and Ki Karsa are talking in a field of grassland at the top of Karacak mountain. Their faces changed several times.

"The star dragon energy possessor, the destined child, what exactly do you mean?." Ki Jagalang looks confused.

"A lot of people come here, but I've never heard them talk about special energy or anything like that." Ki Jagalang tried to remember.

"You know Prabu Garang Ulo?." Ask Ki Karsa. He thought that if something was more famous than the star dragon energy owner but still had something to do it might help him tell his friend about Walangka.

"No, don't know."

"How long have you been a mountain man?."

"My age is now 222 years old, I came here when I was 80, so I'm here already 142 years old." Replied Ki Jagalang doubtful.

"142 years old, you deserve to be so information blind."

"Yes, the point is that you have to train my talented grandson!." Ki Karsa got up from his seat before walking away leaving Ki Jagalang alone.

"He's still like before." Ki Jagalang put on a sour face. "I'd better go to his talented grandson."

Ki Jagalang walks towards a waterfall. He formed several hand seals. "Salted water seal."

The flow of the waterfall was suddenly open. A meadow as far as the eye can see in it. Ki Jagalang jumped in and then stepped towards a simple hut made.

He saw Walangka meditating beside the hut. Ki Jagalang approached the young man and observed him. "There is nothing special about her body, her aura is ordinary." He muttered after some time observing Walangka.

Unable to ascertain whether he was the special child of his body and aura, Ki Jagalang decided to wake Walangka. He shook his body, "son, get up."

A while later, Walangka's eyes opened slowly. His face turned nervous as soon as he saw Ki Jagalang was in front of him. His body trembled in fear if he misbehaved.

"Ho.horm.mat te..old." Said Walangka brick while bowing her head.

"Why do you talk like that?." Ki Jagalang asked while raising his eyebrows.

"Not to think of the elder." Walangka's answer is still brick.

"If judging from Ki Karsa's story about him it seems like he's trying to be polite so that I can be his teacher and help him get revenge, if it's like this it looks like I'm going to use him." Said Ki Jagalang while grinning in his mind.

"Elder, why are you dumbass." Ask Walangka.

"Ah it's okay, o yes If there's anything I want to talk to you about." Ki Jagalang smiled widely.

"What is the elder about?."

"Ah so this way, I used to have a student and he was a very good student always respecting me and very diligent in training, he said, but one day he was killed by mercenaries sent by a black sect, I was devastated by the incident." Ki Jagalang. He told a story while pretending to put on a sad face and cry.

"Then?." Ask plain walangka.

"Yes, since then my strength has been constantly draining, which is why everyone who wants to be my student must help me find a honey that can prolong my life." Ki Jagalang.

"What honey?." Walangka scrunched her forehead.

"War beehives in the Karacak forest." Ki Jagalang replied, he said Walangka waiting for his reaction.

"What's that?." Ask Walangka. "Maybe it's not something weird." He murmured in his heart.

"A honey made by a type of bee called a war bee, as the name suggests this type of bee has a very aggressive nature compared to other types of bees and is very protective of the colony, as the name suggests, they made a honey that could extend its lifespan by ten years, not that the addition of that much age was enough to teach a disciple." Ki Jagalang explained.

"Damn, guarded by the most aggressive bees, I thought it would be easy to become his disciple." Walangka lowered her head limp.

"Hi hi, it worked." Ki Jagalang smiled widely again realizing his acting had succeeded.
