Swordsman Behind the Scenes

CHAPTER IX - REALITY IS NOT AS YOU WISH

In a house that is quite magnificent in the middle of the city, on one of the windows that are located on the left and directly opposite the garden of the house that is very beautiful and surrounded by stone walls as a fence of the house, will be seen a room window with an iron trellis attached like a room security to prevent the bad intentions of thieves who try to get into it. Near the window in the room, a child looks like a boy. But if in the look of his face, especially the shape of the eyebrows, eyes, nose is small but sharp, thin lips and a smooth jaw shape conical down to form a beautiful chin, so it is not wrong to conclude that it is actually a girl. The body is also high especially when compared to the age of just seven years, indicating that the nutrition and nutrients needed for the growth of the child is very sufficient. Yes, it is Kinda. Poor boy, who a month ago was left forever by his father following his mother who had gone first due to illness. With his late father's position as one of the high officers, then all the material needs of his family are very abundant. Upon the departure of the father, where the rightful heir was still a child, the immediate family of the deceased wife also did not exist, then the fact brought its own advantages to the only immediate family of the father, the father, his younger brother is less fortunate than the economy. This younger brother includes a rather lazy, somewhat arrogant man who also somewhat likes to swish. Her partner is a woman who does not like to feel defeated, such as losing appearances, losing a good house, losing money and so on. As for their two big boys of ten years old and the small eight years old. The character of both of them is the result of a combination of the character of both parents.

Once the funeral ceremony was completed, the sister and the family wife immediately moved to the house of the late brother with the reason to take care and care for his young nephew. For reasons that they think are for the good of the nephew, in order to be immediately free from the sad memories of the death of both parents, then the entire house employee was decided to be dismissed and replaced with a new employee. Starting from the niece's nanny, despite having taken care of her since her baby, the housekeeper, to the nurse of two horses. The nephew was cared for in a way adequately provided for his eating and drinking needs. As for the matter of time, attention and affection, they were released because the couple was pouring all their affection to count and use the abandoned inheritance. Not to mention following then came parcels of death love and pension compensation from the empire. Really more attention and concentration both of them, even his two sons were also asked to contribute. Five days ago, the mother got a report from her eldest son about the cousin who for two weeks always went from home, leaving early in the morning on horseback and carrying some food. Can rice and side dishes and bread and others. Home in the afternoon. It repeats itself every day. The report was received by the mother and heard enough. But when three days ago the nephew asked him for a sum of money peces on the grounds to buy food, bread and certain fruit because at the dinner table was up,.so for the sake of hearing this, the aunt who felt the money demanded was too much and felt affection, immediately punished and locked the nephew in her room, he said, without trying to find the truth that everything that was needed by his nephew was deliberately hidden by their two sons.

At that time Kinda was just sitting, with her face facing the garden. Both of his cheeks wet with tears that actually have not flowed for many days due to the meeting and association with his friend the sedeng. As a boy's reasoning goes, for the sake of feeling the only thing left to make his heart feel happy has been taken away, including on the other hand he was also fed up with the behavior and attitude of his two cousins, so he planned to leave his house and will stay with his new friend earlier. The reason a boy had just arrived, because he did not realize that if he stopped or left forever, his uncle and aunt would cheer like to win a lottery with extraordinary prizes. He did not realize that the second day of his life was locked, it was one of the strategies of the aunt with the support of the uncle so that the nephew became more angry and on the third day they deliberately forgot to lock the door from the outside and told everyone to employees to take leave on the day, except for the housekeeper, the, only able to go on leave after serving food more complete than usual days and at the same time ordered not to bother delivering food to his nephew's room like yesterday. Unfortunately after all the family had eaten and their two sons were given more allowances and asked to leave to play immediately, the nephew showed no symptoms of opening his bedroom door, even as time approached noon. Therefore they bring out a new style;

"my wife, don't waste time later we are late"

So said the uncle, who strangely the sound he issued more appropriate if said with the interlocutor separated by two to three plots of fields.

"yes my husband, I went there"

No less loud voices that say.

Two voices followed;

"Let's go now,..."

Then the sound of the front door was shut;

"Jejler...."

The two hid inside, peering at the door of the niece's room.

Sure enough, before long they saw the nephew open the door handle and out of his room with a show of joy because he thought the aunt had forgotten to lock. But only a few steps back the nephew ran into his room and out again for a while, while carrying a bag like a shirt. Of course, the couple immediately looked and shared a winning smile. The highlight is when the nephew went out after first being seen collecting various types of food and fruit on the dining table.

Meanwhile.

Waseso was sitting pensively while grimacing occasionally in pain holding his cheeks and stomach. For two days now, he has been doing profession as a friend practicing silat with three boys of his age. What he doesn't know is that two of them are actually Kinda's older cousins, who have been tailing Kinda for days because of their suspicions. So, knowing that all this time the cousin's sister fed this badger, and with Kinda locked up, they intend to teach the little boy a lesson, sedeng, and invite one of their friends to play together practicing silat, where the sedeng became the target of the punch. The third offer was very tempting for Waseso, because by only taking turns from the three rich children he earned three packs of rice and side dishes and fruits.

"doesn't this suit my needs.

Of course the blows of the three of them who fully rely on brute force can be accepted easily by Waseso who is already equipped with the basics of canuragan from his late father. Unfortunately on the second day, the three had been fraudulent and clearly in violation of the mutually agreed rules that must not wear feet. Therefore this is the result, did not blur Waseso swollen cheeks as well as one temple benjol. But today it is starting to look dull.

"hey, uh,....."

Buy at once Waseso's daydream when he heard the voice of his friend of two days disappearing;

"he stinks,..."

"you're weird, you're weird,..."

After saying so Kinda put down her luggage and immediately sat down beside Waseso. All I was asked was grin.

"eat yuk, I haven't eaten,...."

So said Kinda. Then he took two packets of rice, each with vegetables and side dishes. And split it one for Waseso. He paid little heed to the recipient just putting the parcel just now beside him. Kinda ate it. After he finished he took two oranges from his bag and divided them one with Waseso. Back he also ignored when Waseso also just put the orange gift beside him. After finishing eating the orange, Kinda took a bag of water and drank it. Then he heard Waseso standing up and saying;

"thank you for this meal"

He did not answer and stood up and followed behind Waseso who was walking towards his residence;

"may I stay at your place"

Ask Kinda.

"can"

Waseso replied without looking back who asked.

When he arrived at Waseso's residence, he was shocked to see that there were two thin little boys sleeping. In addition to being skinny they were both also nimble and looked like starving children. Now he understands why Waseso did not immediately enjoy his gift. He saw Waseso open the rice package from him and divide one orange into two equal pieces, and put it in front of the two boys who immediately sat down to see the arrival of the two of them.

"they're named, they're both six years old"

At that time Kinda did not hear all the sentences conveyed by Waseso, he was busy lowering his two innards. Then he opened one of the bags he was carrying and took a sandwich and an orange to give to Waseso. Finally, the three of them ate with Kinda. As the sunlight started to scorch and they felt sultry, Waseso immediately took off all his clothes and threw himself into the river. Two little boys followed as well. As Waseso yelled at him to take the plunge, Kinda shook her head. Somehow this time he felt ashamed to take his clothes off and take a bath if there was another child besides him and Waseso, even though the other child was actually smaller and younger by a year than him. Kinda just sat on the river lip while putting both her legs in the water. Back his mouth let out a loose laugh when he heard Waseso's babble. For the sake of feeling like urinating, Kinda stood up and moved away.

When it was over and he returned to the place where the three boys were playing water, from his current place he saw Waseso who was still naked talking to his two older cousins and either another child on the opposite side of the river there. While the two little boys are seen gathering on the side of the river here where the last Kinda was sitting. When he arrived near the two boys who had now been seen wearing his clothes, one of the boys without question said;

"the three of them are young gentlemen who two days in a row yesterday fed us, but big brother Waseso should be their target for silat training"

Instantly Kinda's facial features changed to show emotion, realizing that the cause of Waseso's swollen face was his two cousins. He got up and was about to walk around the bridge so he could get to the four boys across there. Just stepping three treads, he saw a creature resembling a cute little monkey yet furry in golden yellow. At once the strangeness distracts Kinda. And somehow coincidentally or how the little monkey seemed to walk funny approaching Kinda, even now seen sitting right in front of his legs. Of course Kinda was very happy about it, and as she remembered something Kinda immediately ran to get a red apple from her bag and ran again to the little monkey. When Kinda sat down and stuck out her apple, the monkey accepted it and casually sat on the girl's lap while enjoying the apple. As Kinda was fondly stroking the monkey's head she was shocked by the voice of the woman coming from the top of the big tree in front of her;

"never before has he behaved this strangely, let alone to the point of sitting on your lap a pretty boy"

Kinda immediately looked up and was amazed to see an old woman sitting on a very small tree branch up there.

Not lost his amazement, which is meant even now to have been in front of him and pay close attention to him like someone who assesses a valuable item.

"yes Grandma, I was also surprised that this time I saw even holding this cute creature"

The grandmother who had been paying attention to the shape of the body and bone shape of the girl became increasingly interested in him.

"is this your pet, Grandma?"

"right, he's my friend, too. Do you want to be friends with him?"

"yes, of course I want to be her best friend too"

Hearing the answer, the grandmother smiled.

"will you come with me and be my disciple?"

For a moment Kinda thought, indeed she intended to leave her house and stay with Waseso. But for the sake of knowing there were two other children who were also with Waseso, surely Waseso's residence did not fit. This grandmother besides being very powerful, she also looks kind, clean and beautiful. If he becomes a student of this great grandmother besides later being able to study, he can also play as much as possible with this little monkey. After briefly thinking about this, he replied;

"yes, I want to,...."

Kinda immediately carried the monkey and went to get his bag. Then ran back closer to the Sakti grandmother. Just getting in front of the grandmother, they were startled by the sound of Waseso's agonizing cry across the river. He saw that two cousins and one friend were running away scared away, while two little boys were also seen running away crying as hard as they could. Kinda who ran closer to the river, saw that Waseso was still screaming in pain naked and floundering on the ground, while around him was seen swirling animals like wasps. I don't know since when he saw the grandmother had been near Waseso across the street. The grandmother seemed to mention her hand once and the buzzing sound of wasps instantly vanished. To see a package of cloth lying empty near Waseso and see******* the boy is now growing like a balloon, some lumps are growing under the boy's stomach and chest, my grandmother realized what was happening.

"grandmother,.please she's grandma,.hikhikhik,..."

For the sake of seeing the prospective student whining and crying and the boy in front of him was still like a corner under his feet. The grandmother took out a small knife from her waist and;

"kresss, uh,....."

"this is what the children of Satan do, if the boy's bird is not forced to circumcise, he will die tormented"

So he mumbled softly.

When his hand was about to move his knife twice where the target he wanted to target was a lump on the boy's stomach, suddenly both ears felt trembling.

He was completely aghast and his face turned deathly pale in order to see the figure that was now in front of him ....he who is already highly educated and even has been unfortunate across the martial world so that he obtained the title of Ratu Sakti Selaksa Forest, is still amazed by what he saw.

A plain white hairy tiger like snow, a, stature as a horse and has both eyes that emit a golden light seem to be languishing and threatening like he was about to hit himself while opening a little mouth shows four fangs left right and large nails and sharp as a sword is seen coming out from between the front toes.

"Ggrrrrrrhhhhhhhhhhh"

His furious voice that seemed to be soft but reality seemed to rattle his eardrum and heart, immediately making him move back slowly. After he felt safe, then he flew closer to his prospective students.

"how is this grandma"

Thus Kinda's trembling voice to his teacher-to-be.

"calm down, son, he's a powerful tiger and he doesn't seem to have any ill intentions towards your friend"

Just as the grandmother finished talking, the tiger was walking across the street to Waseso who seemed to have fainted. The first thing he does is lick the blood coming out of the end******* Waseso

"nyesssss"

Sounds like if hot iron is put in cold water. But strangely the blood that was flowing became stopped.

Soon the grandmother muttered;

"really powerful,..fairytales,..."

Just now the grandmother was finished, which she showed seemed to direct her head and body towards the teacher and the female students while again growling like they did not like to be noticed. As his furious voice grew louder and louder, the grandmother immediately picked up her student's bag of clothes and hugged her waist;

"let our students go home, you must practice hard if you want to see your friend again"

In the blink of an eye, the grandmother with her disciple had disappeared from the place.

The giant tiger immediately approached Waseso's body and licked the lumps of the bee attack on the abdomen and chest of the boy.

After that, as fast as lightning, he flashed and returned with a fish net he held in his mouth, then put the net enveloped Waseso's body until it was tight to the tip of the foot. After that, the tiger rolled Waseso's body in such a way that at last the entire body of the boy was tightly wrapped by a mesh, just like a cocoon but the boy's head seemed free. And the strangest part was that he bit the nets on Waseso's nape and carried the boy's body like a mother cat moving the child. Then; then;

"sretttt, uh,......"

Suddenly the tiger disappeared. Not a single trace was left behind, not even the weeds around it had collapsed a single trunk, let alone the footprints were completely invisible. It completely disappeared like a demon.

It seems that Waseso's desire to go to Kotaraja will not be realized, at least for now.

SERIATE.
