The Blue Swordsman

Insurrectionary Offensive

"Seek call the archers here, and prepare the cavalry behind the gate of the fortress" Shouted one of the Commanders from above the fortress.

After seeing what is now in front of him the Commander realized there was an attack of rebellion, and when he saw the enemy troops he also realized the threat of danger is very real.

The orders were passed on by the soldiers until all the chaos had spread into the city and the kingdom of Shaminari. King Prabaswara finally heard the commotion and got a shocking news. What he had feared had actually happened, he now felt a deep regret for telling the legend of the Black Sword and asking Patih Pramana to look for it.

"Truly do not know the benefits, all this time I have given everything for him and it turns out this is the reply" said King Prabaswara expressed his frustration.

All those in the presence of King Prabaswara were only bowed and silent at the grievances of his King, they seemed to be able to feel also the annoyance experienced by the King.

While standing from his throne King Prabaswara gave his orders,

"Deploy all the soldiers and face the rebels, do not let Patih Pramana take this fortress easily. We will defend this kingdom with all the power we have. Get it done!" King Prabaswara's voice rang with rage.

"Each Your Majesty" replied in unison to the courtiers in front of him. Hearing the king's command so fierce burned the anger and spirit of all those in the royal hall. They immediately went and carried out the orders of his king.

Now in the royal hall there are only King Prabaswara and Adyana, his royal advisors, the melancholy is clearly drawn from the face of the King.

"It's all my fault, I myself who have kept the lion cub and now when the lion is grown it turns out that the lion is now attacking me" complained King Prabaswara, he likened Patih Pramana to a fully grown lion.

"This is not entirely your fault, Your Majesty, Patih Pramana's great ambition allows him to be easily used. I believe there is another person responsible for inciting Patih Pramana in this rebellion" Adyana tried to defend and warned King Prabaswara.

The words of Adyana immediately reminded King Prabaswara of the great ambition of Patih Pramana, he remembered very well if he had cunningly incited Patih Pramana to betray and side with him in a great war of power struggle. And now the incident is repeated only this time he was betrayed and there is another figure who managed to instigate Patih Pramana to seize power from him. "It is ironic that this is all karma that I must accept" said King Prabaswara's heart.

King Prabaswara's orders had spread rapidly among the soldiers in the kingdom. All of them had now immediately set out for the fortress and were prepared for rebellion, the shadow of defeat and death did not cross the minds of the soldiers so full of vigor.

Above the walls of the fortress the rows of archery troops were ready with his shot, just waiting for the order of attack and they would immediately rain down the stealth troops with arrows that they would pin down.

Patih Pramana was not at all daunted by the preparations that the Shaminari royal soldiers had made. With the power and the troops he has now the fear is not at all felt in the heart of Patih Pramana who has been filled with ambition.

The demon army also seemed to feel the same way as their leader, with a face without expression and a creepy impression, they looked like death god messengers who would take the lives of every human in front of him.

"Groan!!!!" Patih Pramana shouted loudly breaking the gripping silence of the night.

Seeing the rebel forces begin to move, the Royal Commanders also gave an attack order.

"Foot!" Shouted them, immediately the bow-bow was shot towards the rebel forces that began to come closer. Hundreds of arrows were immediately raining down on the demons that came quickly.

The attack from the demons began to hit in a row against the walls of the fortress, some of the attacks also lead to the archers even some further through the walls of the fort and hit into the city of Ankara.

For a moment the royal commanders thought the archers had managed to make the pace of the demons stop, but when carefully observed it turned out that the arrows did not kill any demons at all. With the arrows pierced in their bodies the demons continued to go as if they did not care about the wounds on his body.

Knowing that the arrow attack did not give the effect of one of the Commander suddenly shouted an idea.

"Get the oil ready, the fire will probably prevent their speed!"

Felt if the idea made sense some of the soldiers under the fort immediately carried barrels of oil over the fort.

"For the oils into the bamboo tubes and throw as far as you can towards the rebels" said the commander-in-chief, who had the idea.

Without many words the soldiers immediately carried out the order, there was little time for them to hear clearly the shrieks of the increasingly violent demons.

"Coat the ends of your arrows with a cloth that has been covered with oil" He ordered again, this time the command was spoken to the archer soldiers.

Oil-filled bamboo tubes have been thrown at the demons, some looking right down on the bodies of the rebels, some falling to the ground.

"Light the fire at the end of the arrow and aim at the rebel army now!" There was a cry of command from the Commander of the soldiers who saw if the bamboo tubes containing oil had smeared the bodies of the demons.

Fiery arrows scattered in the air shot towards the rebels who had almost reached the fortress wall. The flames instantly burned the bodies of the demons and the surrounding places that had been exposed to oil from the thrown bamboo tubes. It changed the state of the night to light by the light of fire that burned the area around the fort.

Bright conditions that can usually drive away fear this time actually create a terrible scene that would make cowards scream hysterically and run away. Even with a burning body and arrows embedded in the body of the rebellious creatures can still move forward and bang the gate of the fortress. Some even began to look to be able to climb the fort walls easily. The fire-covered demon army on his body now looks like a warrior from hell who came to destroy the world.

Too confused by what they saw the Royal Commanders began to feel confused by the orders to be given to his soldiers. Their brains became dull and felt that there was nothing more to do but wait for the imminent attack to come.

When the hope of defending the fort seemed to have disappeared, suddenly a blue-colored light came from the sky. The light was like a wave of slashes, as the light split the place near the fortress and the bodies of the demons were precisely in its trajectory.
