Swordsman Dog Stick

Ep 28 - Brightly Continued

Agni thought that she would have dinner with Harjaya alone, or at least, three with Andara, the youngest son of Harjaya. But it turns out that after the Lasmita cuisine is ready, they all sit together at one dining table. If only with Harjaya and his wife with his youngest son, it does not matter, but the two young girls and Harjaya's foster child, making Agni so awkward. Agni just felt it was inappropriate, but Agni could not resist when Harjaya and Lasmita invited her.

For Harjaya itself, actually it is not something that is usually done, especially when they are still in Villa Anggrek Bamboo, the residence of the King. Such a thing is done only with relatives or people closest to it.

But Harjaya does have a special purpose. Seeing Agni, Harjaya hopes that Ayu Wilis can establish a close relationship with Agni, not a love affair, enough friendly relations or maybe it can be a brother and sister only, that way, so, it may be able to help in the future.

"Then I will try not to hesitate. Uncle, Auntie, don't regret that I spent your dinner rations" Agni joked.

They laughed when Agni spoke,

"Hide... You can spend everything Agni, as long as you leave a little for Andara, I will be confused if she can not sleep because of hunger" Lasmita said.

"Andara, you hear me, we'll share it together, you'll eat your brother's rations, I'll eat your mother's father's rations, how?" Guru Agni's.

"No ah Brother, I'm more willing to starve than to feel the pinch of their fingers both" replied Andara who was greeted by pinching Arini and invited the laughter of all those at the dinner table.

Agni's easy self-capture made the dinner atmosphere warm, Ayu Wilis and Arini did not talk much, because after all they were a girl, they were a girl, so they feel they should be more able to maintain their attitude and become loyal listeners only. But this did not reduce the warmth of the dinner.

"Dad, mother, if you were here..." Ayu Wilis said in her heart, for a long time she had not felt the warmth of the atmosphere like that night.

After dinner, Agni pleaded. Maybe just a pleasantries, Harjaya offers Agni to spend the night in the house. But Agni refused, with dinner alone should have been a bit inappropriate, especially if she had to spend the night in the house. It was because of the two young girls who were in that house.

"Thank you uncle, although a traveler, I already have a place that I set up for my place to spend the night, Uncle take it easy, I will often come here" concluded Agni.

After pleading himself, Agni rushed away, she darted back towards her own hiding place. It turned out that the distance from Harjaya's house to Agni's place was quite far, at high speed, it took him over an hour to get to where he was hiding.

Recalling just to set up a mountain protection formation turned out to be equivalent to spending 3000 gold coins, making Agni look back at all the supplies she had in her storage ring.

"I don't think these stones are so expensive"

Agni never thought about it, five years of time only used to practice and practice only. When he first learned that the mountain of gold and silver had made him very surprised, it turned out that the stones were even tens of times more expensive than just gold coins.

If only Agni would know that her herbs, her pills, and the other treasures in her ring were far more expensive than the gold coins and stones, maybe Agni could vomit blood.

In the following days Agni visited Harjaya's house to listen to all the information she needed from that person also from Ayu Wilis. Because of one thing or another, Agni still could not tell who she really was to the family, the Harjaya and Ayu Wilis families could understand.

In the Golden Tread sect there was a meeting of the elders,

"Report!!!" Tagih Tuan Besar Jaya Pamungkas.

"This month 45 students declared their exit, the income of restaurants, brothels and inns decreased by 10%, the drug pavilion experienced the worst condition with a decrease of up to 40%" reported the 6th elder, Amigo.

"Continue" Jaya Pamungkas said to other elders by holding back her feelings.

"The robin pedestal sect cut off the supply of medicinal ingredients that we need Big Master" added 5th elder Jun Kyo

"Sadly, they are getting more and more daring not to give us face" said Gao Yuan, the first elder of the Tread Tiger sect.

"If it continues like this, the Roban Alas Sect will shift us from the position of the 6 big sects" complained Grand Lord Jaya Pamungkas

"Murids from the Snow Fox sect are also increasingly daring to provoke a commotion at the disciples of our sect" added the 10th elder, Samijan.

"Not just fishing, they've already made a fuss by oppressing our disciples Elder Samijan" the 8th Elder Hui Ja scowled then continued.

"The report I just received this afternoon, Big Master" he concluded

"Brughh" Jaya Pamungkas hit the stalk of the throne where he sat.

"We have to repay them Great Lord" interrupted Aryasena the third elder of the Tigers' Palm Sect.

Jaya Pamungkas rubbed her face trying to reduce the pressure on her head.

"How to reply? Are you going to intervene alone and beat up Aryasena's golden fox disciples? It was the same as luring Lin Mewu into meddling, you know the friendship of the Snow Fox Sect with the Golden Bear Sect? Still adding to their relationship with Emperor Yun?" Jaya Pamungkas sharp.

"Jun Kyo, how's the Monas Monument's trading hall?"

"The Tugu Monas Trading Hall is willing to provide what we need, but the price given is 10% more expensive than the Great Lord Roban's Alas Sect" Jun Kyo replied.

"Already, now that is what we need, our medicinal pill pavilion needs sky-level pills in order to compete" Jaya Pamungkas said.

A few days later the meeting ended. The wrinkle of Jaya Pamungkas' face was so sour with the conditions experienced by the sect he led today.

"If you're still here, Wiraja" Jaya lamented inwardly.

Previously, the source of the Tiger Palm Sect's greatest income was from its medicinal pavilion. Wiraja had contributed a lot to catapult the name of the medicinal pavilion belonging to the Tiger Palm Sect, in addition to Wiraja himself who was an Alchemist elder in the sect, he said, also thanks to the work of the Wire, the Tiger Site Sect was able to establish good relations with the Roban Base Sect, thus obtaining a cheaper supply of medicinal ingredients.

Meanwhile, through Harjaya, more and more information Agni gets from day to day. At one time Harjaya talked again when they first met.

"Sorry Agni, actually I have something that is stuck, hopefully not to offend you" said Harjaya.

"Please Uncle, don't worry" Agni replied.

"Several days I've known you, I haven't seen at all the features of a scary person on you, and I honestly have very good judgment on you, but...."

"Uncle is too complimentary... But... But why Uncle?" Agni astonished Harjaya to stop his words.

"I'm sorry, I hope you're not offended. When you repelled Pradipta's attack on me, and when you rebuked him, I saw something that I thought was very hard on you, me..."

"Forward Uncle, don't hesitate, I really won't be offended" Agni had guessed something.

"I saw a strong killing aura on you Agni, I'm sure, other than because you hid your cultivation aura, but also because of that killing aura that Pradipta did not dare to take risks against you" harjaya said lowering his tone.

"Well Uncle, now or later Uncle will also know who I really am, maybe I should be frank now" replied Agni.

Harjaya frowned hearing Agni's reply. Then Agni told him about his journey to get to that place, but he did not tell about killing a giant panther. He felt that something was wrong with the tiger, because when in the low realm of demon beasts, only the Tigers were the only ones he encountered in the Demigod realm.

"That's how Uncle is, I wish uncle could help me"

"You have saved my life as well as Miss Wilis Agni, even without a doubt you also spent a lot of high-tier spirit stones just to protect us, I am not a person who does not know Agni's kindness, she said, my life is in your hands"

"Uncle....! Don't say that, it's true that I expected a reply to what I did, just to give me information about this nature, it's also for my own safety, she said, not that uncle has to behave like that, it's Uncle, don't be like that" Agni.

"Thank you Agni, uncle is very grateful to meet you, this is the first time I have met the real human race"

"So did my uncle, the first time I met a demon in the form of a human... Well then, I won't hesitate to ask Uncle anything more, may I? Hehe..." Ask Agni.

"I told you I'd help you the best I could, would I have to split my chest?"

"Haha... This uncle... But it's also okay if Uncle wants to try" After saying that, Agni was suddenly surprised because Harjaya pulled out a knife from his storage ring.

"Uncle...!!!" Sergey Agni while holding Harjaya's hand holding a knife.

"Why, I want to slaughter the chicken to eat us. Don't you want to?" Harjaya.

"Want no hiiiiihhh..." Gerrutu Agni prying because of Harjaya.

"Hehehe... Come on..." Bring Harjaya.

From that day on, Agni had come to think of the killing aura she had.

"If I can control the aura of my cultivation, it's not impossible that I can hide this killing aura as well" he thought.

So the following days, every night Agni always meditated to understand how the properties of the killing aura were. Because of that, Agni reduced her time to visit Harjaya's house. Even sometimes, his meditation made him forget time, just a moment he closed his eyes to meditate trying to understand how the killing aura worked, it turned out that he had spent one day and one night, sometimes even more than that.

"I don't think it's this hard" complained Agni slowly.
