The Blue Swordsman

The faces of the full of gloom

Patih Pramana began to move towards the Shaminari kingdom to welcome his victory, Wanara and Shengkara also seemed to walk in his footsteps. A feeling of satisfaction was felt in his heart as he walked through the hundreds of horsemen that were successfully destroyed by the Sastrika Warrior.

His steps immediately stopped when he saw one Sastrika Warrior who seemed to split his body and could not get up again.

"Why is there one of the Sastrika Warriors who can not rise again?" Patih Pramana asked Wanara and Shengkara. Wonder cannot be hidden from his face.

"Hamba also does not know why this can happen" replied Wanara when he saw the body of the fallen Sastrika Warrior. While Shenkara chose to be quiet because he did not know the cause of the incident.

"Doesn't this mean that the Sastrican Warrior has a weakness?" Ask Patih Pramana again.

"It seems so master, but I'm not too sure what the weaknesses and causes of his conquest were one of the Sastrika Warriors" Wanara tried to give his opinion.

Patih Pramana who had tested the ability of the Sastrika Warrior was not able to find answers. He was very sure if when he fought with the Sastrika Warrior even though the Soldier's body had been destroyed with his punch but in fact still able to rise again. "What's really going on?" Ask in the heart.

With curiosity he then tried to check around the place, but he did not find another Sastrika Warrior who fell. Therefore Patih Pramana concluded that the enemy had accidentally done so. He also argues if it means his enemy does not know the weaknesses of the Sastrika Warrior.

But the fall of one of the Sastrika Warriors seems to be immediately forgotten by Patih Pramana, considering that now he has succeeded in conquering the kingdom of Shaminari, the kingdom that controls this country. With a step full of excitement he continued his goal to enter the Shaminari royal palace. He felt impatient to try to sit on the throne of the kingdom, impatient to declare that he was now the ruler of this country.

Before long his footsteps had ushered him in front of the royal palace of Shaminari, something new was if now he was no longer a Patih in the kingdom but now he had managed to seize power over the kingdom. Proudly he began to enter the palace to head to the royal hall where the king's throne was located. With satisfaction he began to sit on the throne and began to laugh with pride. Something that had never even crossed his mind had successfully realized Patih Pramana, he had now become King in Shaminari kingdom.

But for a moment he felt something was lacking, what it meant to be a king without a people who could be ruled as he pleased. A question immediately came to his mind, though,

"Where do the people of this city go?" Patih Pramana asked while stopping her laughter.

"Hamba doesn't know the master yet" Wanara replied in response to Patih Pramana's question.

"As soon as you find out, bring some Sastrika soldiers if you feel the need" he ordered Wanara and Shenkara. He had an inkling that if the residents and retainers of the Shaminari kingdom must be heading somewhere, they certainly already have a purpose to evacuate.

"Okay sir" said Wanara, he then invited Shenkara and some Sastrika Soldiers to carry out orders from Patih Pramana. Without a long time they had gone from the royal palace of Shaminari.

The faces full of gloom were evident from the people who staggered south of the country to the village of Sentani. They were none other than King Prabaswara and his retainers and former residents of the city of Ankara. By their careless steps they walk without a sure hope if it is true that their destination can provide them with protection from the grip of power that is currently in power.

In the front row Rajendra and the two Atmik led their journey with King Prabaswara who was in line with them.

"Are you sure if later in our destination this will be able to accommodate and provide protection to everyone who is currently heading there?" King Prabaswara asked Rajendra.

Rajendra's thoughts are still focused on the success of toppling one of the Sastrika Warriors. Although he realized it was something that he did accidentally but his success clearly showed that the Sastrika Warrior had a weakness. During this time he still continues to think about the possibilities of the weakness of the Sastrika Warrior.

Seeing that Rajendra seemed to be immersed in the thought of King Prabaswara, he realized, "Then what are you thinking about right now?" Ask later.

Rajendra was a little surprised to hear the question, the two Atmik also seemed to turn his head towards Rajendra they seemed to also realize the gloom on his face.

"Hamba is thinking about the possibility of the weakness of the Sastrika Warrior" Rajendra replied while sharing his views.

"What do you mean?" Asked King Prabaswara who did not understand "Are the Sastrika Warriors defeated?" Next later. He who has heard the story about the eternity of the Sastrika Warrior seems interested in Rajendra's speech.

"It seems so, even though the servants themselves have not fully known their weaknesses" he replied seriously.

"Then why do you believe they can be defeated?" Asked King Prabaswara frowned because he did not feel understood.

"When we fought with them, the servant carried out an attack that managed to split the bodies of several Sastrika Warriors. And we're pretty sure that if one of them doesn't get back up, it clearly means that they can be killed. But because it is not a coincidence, of course, until this moment you have not found the answer to the incident" Rajendra explained everything.

King Prabaswara nodded his head now he seemed to understand the full purpose of Rajendra. There is nothing wrong if everything he says is the truth. If indeed one of the Sastrika Warriors can be subverted then the possibility of being able to defeat them all becomes there.

Their steps stopped when they saw a small village that looked not far away. Because Dusk was almost before they planned to rest in the village.

"We should rest in the village and continue the journey tomorrow, maybe we also need to invite the villagers to all evacuate to the village of Sentani" said King Prabaswara.

"Yes I think that's the best idea" Rajendra replied.

King Prabaswara also continued his message to one of his followers which was then immediately forwarded to all those who participated in their journey.

The villagers were shocked by the group of people who came to their village. The village chief who heard the news looked even more surprised because it turned out that the leader of the group was King Prabaswara. With a sense of courtesy the village head also allowed the group to rest, the village head also immediately invited his King to stay at his house.

"Thank you for your kindness" said King Prabaswara appreciating the offer of the village chief.

"The servant who has the honor if his majesty is willing" replied the village chief humbling himself.

The sky began to darken as dusk passed, the people who had fled from the Shaminari kingdom were now resting after a grueling journey. Far behind them without a single person now realizing there were several figures stalking their journey. No one feels a danger that is likely approaching, because for now the fatigue is the most they can feel.
