The Blue Swordsman

Step Rescue

The Light of Dawn usually brings a new hope, but this time it is not at all beautiful to all who have witnessed what has just happened. Surprised faces were seen from the soldiers who were on top of the royal fortress of Shaminari. Fear and worry mixed into one, their minds as if refusing to believe what their eyes had seen.

The thought of the soldiers was dead-end to seek answers to the events they had just seen. How could the hundreds of cavalry who were already considered the spearhead of the royal power be defeated so easily by an army that was even a lot smaller in number. In the light of dawn that slowly began to illuminate clearly visible if none of them fell from the enemy.

Everything that had happened seemed completely absurd, something that should have been impossible happened. Even if the cavalry were defeated, they should at least cause damage to the enemy. But reality turned out to deny the necessity, which happened clearly if the enemy soldiers had no casualties at all.

"What's really going on?" Ask one soldier to another.

Everyone was silent, because they all had the same question without anyone knowing the answer.

The Sastrika warriors who had successfully conquered the Horsemen had now disbanded the formation and started walking towards the fortress wall.

The commander of the soldiers who saw if the attack was coming soon shouted out the command, "Close the gate, prepare the archer troops!"

Hearing that command the soldiers immediately carried it out, the gate had begun to close and the archery troops were already preparing with his bow.

After believing that the enemy troops are already at the range of arrows, the Commander of the soldiers also gave the order to attack "shoot..". Although the voice of the command was loud and clear but in the heart of the Commander there was absolutely no confidence if his attack would be able to stop the enemy forces.

Hundreds of arrows rained down on the Sastrika Warriors, but it seemed that they did not care at all. With definite steps, they seemed to continue walking closer to the royal fortress.

Something that was feared by the Shaminari Kingdom army commander had actually happened. The arrows that continue to rain down on the bodies of the rebel forces are not at all effective, let alone penetrate their bodies, scratched it does not seem.

Suddenly a series of attacks that blew the ground occurred, the attack seemed to make rebel forces bounce. Along with the attack that had just occurred appeared five figures who had just flown past the fort walls.

"Hold your fire!" Shouted one of the Commander who was at the end of the fort, he seemed to know if the attack that had just occurred was carried out by Rajendra and his friends.

On the back of the wind Atmic that is in the form of the Silver Eagle, Rajendra and Atmik have now come to dispel the attack of the Sastrika Warrior.

Predating the others Agnigara seemed to have come down to face the Sastrika Warrior. Riswana and Nadira soon followed, while Rajendra who was already holding the Lightning Sword in his hand tried to attack from above with Bayurajata.

And for the first time now Rajendra can see clearly the enemy troops are of course the Sastrika Warrior. Bayurajata appears to be flying while Rajendra continues to shake his sword, a wave of Lightning sword slashes appear to split the body of the Sastrika Warrior and penetrate to the ground.

Agnigara, Nadira and Riswana who are at the bottom are also seen to have fought with several Sastrika Warriors who surrounded them. Unmercifully Agnigara was seen to be the most subverting of the Sastrika Warriors who came to attack.

Rajendra and Bayurajata, which have been ravaging the rear, have now been seen joining the three Atmik not far from the fortress wall. A horizontal slash carried out by Rajendra, the wave of blue slashes was seen cutting through anything he went through.

For a moment the soldiers of the Shaminari kingdom thought that everything was finished. Victory is certain, the shadow about the greatness of the hero figure some time ago seems to have given confidence to all the soldiers.

"What is this only the ability of the Sastrika Warrior?" Rajendra asked the Atmics without turning his head and keeping his position.

"No way, this is too easy" replied Agnigara.

It did not take long to answer Rajendra's questions, the Sastrika Warrior who had collapsed, split even though it was destroyed began to rise again. Their wounds had recovered, the split ones were united again and the shattered ones seemed to be fused back together.

"It seems you are judging too quickly" said Agnigara who saw the Sastrika Warrior had come back to life.

"It won't be easy, I feel a bad feeling. Riswana, Nadira tells the King to prepare for the worst and after that take Utari and Ranu to Sentani village, we will follow soon if things are under control" Rajendra's Order on Atmic Forests and Water.

Riswana seems a little reluctant to do Rajendra's orders, he who also feels a bad feeling actually wants to stay in this place to help them face the Sastrika Warrior. But because it is remembered if the rescue step is more important to do then with a heavy heart he agreed to the order.

Without the need to answer Riswana gazed at Nadira, both of them seemed to nod then immediately fly away leaving Rajendra and the other two Atmik.

The royal soldiers who also saw that the fallen rebel forces had risen one by one as if they were now losing faith.

"What do they need?" Ask some soldiers.

Those who originally thought the war was about to be won were wrong. The real war was just about to begin, even now they have lost faith to be able to defeat creatures that look unable to die.

Rajendra, Agnigara and Bayurajata who have been surrounded by Sastrika Warriors are preparing for a battle that they did not even think they could win.

"So what's your plan now" Bayurajata tries to ask Rajendra.

Rajendra did not immediately answer, because he did not have a plan to face the enemy. All this time he knew would only defeat every enemy he faced. But for the enemies he was currently facing, of course, strength and magic alone would not be enough to achieve victory.

"There are no plans, we face them and hold them as long as possible" Rajendra replied flatly.

Both Atmik just smiled at the answer, without saying any more they immediately shouted and greeted directly towards the Sastrika Warrior. A fight that seemed futile, because no matter how much the three had knocked down the Sastrika Warrior then they would immediately rise and attack again.

Some of the Sastrika Warriors also seemed to have escaped and attacked towards the fortress wall. Rajendra and the two Atmik could not stop all that, they were too busy facing the Sastrika Warriors who kept coming to attack them.

Feeling the chance to survive the smaller Rajendra yelled at the soldiers who were on the wall of the fort, "run, warn the residents to immediately save themselves!!"

Patih Pramana who was in front of Wanara and Shengkara smiled with satisfaction to see the Sastrika Warrior who managed to trouble Rajendra and the two Atmik.
