The Fate of Adipura Kingdom

10. Last Meeting

King Aryo then entered the house to ensure the state of his wife, the ladies-in-waiting immediately saluted him.

"How is the queen?", king Aryo asked right at the door of the room where his wife rested.

"Even my majesty, the queen still fainted to this day" the lady replied with a downward glance.

King Aryo sighed softly and then he went into the room, he could tell his wife who was still unconscious lay with a pale face on the wooden floor with a makeshift mat.

He then sat cross-legged near his wife while gently rubbing his wife's hair, like a flower that grows in spring, the gentle greeting of king Aryo's hand finally made queen Sinta slowly wake up from her stupor.

"Kanda", she said softly when her gaze found a figure in front of her who was none other than her husband.

"Shhhuttt..... Do not over-exert the dinda, it is better to rest now", king Aryo requested that his wife not move because of her limp condition. He then asked one of the ladies to bring water for his wife to drink.

The dayang immediately took the water according to the order of the king, "Thank you", king Aryo told the lady.

After the lady-in-waiting came out of the king's room Aryo immediately asked his wife to drink first, although the little distress the water brought by the lady had been drunk by his wife.

"Have a rest, I will accompany you here", king Aryo smiled warmly at his wife.

Seeing the warm smile from her husband made Queen Sinta become calmer, there was nothing more she was happy about than seeing the smile of her husband and the two together.

Fierce fighting still continues in the palace Adipura, the noise in the palace can be heard by residents who are not far from the palace area.

Not only was the blaze beginning to show its shape burning the inner buildings of the palace, black smoke billowing into the sky made the night seem like the largest burial ceremony ever seen in the Adipura kingdom.

News of the attack at the palace soon spread and made the citizens panic, they hurriedly packed the belongings and intended to evacuate to a safer place.

From hundreds to thousands of people began crammed into the street to save themselves, each of them carrying families as well as items that could be saved.

Patih Yarna and several other patih still fight against mysterious men and red demons, while the soldiers of Adipura kingdom fight the invading forces.

Minister Balda actually wanted to help but when he wanted to move from afar seemed two people who recognized him approaching. The blade of blood and prince Jaka started to look and actually pointed at him.

“Why can Jaka's student be like this?", Balda minister just wanted to move but had to stop because he was approached by a blood knife that embraced Prince Jaka by his side.

“Sorry minister, this is the fault of a disciple like this?", the voice of prince Jaka sounded so limp and weak.

Minister Balda asked the blood knife to lay the body of prince Jaka and then he sat cross-legged beside him. Minister Balda sat down for a few seconds then extended his hand towards the wound of prince Jaka.

From his palm came out a yellowish light made with energy in his possession. Within minutes the blood flowing from Prince Jaka's wounds slowly stopped.

“It is finished, the wound of Jaka's temporary disciple will not bleed again but we need medicine from the healer to heal completely even though his left eye can no longer be saved”, Balda said slowly.

Prince Jaka clenched his hands tightly because he was very angry with the conditions that befell him. He swore he would take revenge on the man who made him like this.

The blood knife that saw it smiled cynically because it felt that Prince Jaka was very stupid if he acted in anger. In the martial world anger is the greatest enemy within oneself that will make one fall into despair and end in defeat.

“Kanda, dinda will go to senior place of Yuda. Please take care of Jaka's students here, leave it to us. Kanda need not worry”, the blood knife explained the next plan.

“To be honest I objected, because I was the one appointed as the leader of this attack. But it's not wrong for me to hand it over to you. Go and be careful there dinda”, Balda minister releases his wife to help the mysterious man whom minister Balda knows is his older brother-in-law. He hoped that the two would be able to carry out some important tasks that were actually a task for themselves.

The blood knife nodded its head in understanding and immediately ran towards the back. Minister Balda smiled at his wife's fighting spirit, when king Parya of the kingdom of Kendala ordered to attack the kingdom of Adipura his wife asked to take part in the attack.

Because he felt his wife was strong enough and was one of the female heroes in the kingdom of Obstacles, he then allowed her to join him in the task.

But fate said otherwise, he did not know that the meeting he and his wife had at that time was the last time he could see his wife. Pride for his wife became angry after learning that his wife died with bulging eyes and a hole in her head.

“Patih ability of Adipura kingdom is only this way? I should have attacked earlier than Kendala” kingdom, the red devil spoke softly after successfully killing a Patih with double slashes crossed over his victim's body.

Patih Yarna's condition was already very bad because the strength of his opponent they could not face, plus the many wounds that adorned his body parts. Even if he unleashed all his abilities and assisted the other Patih, in fact their combined abilities were not enough to stop the attacks of the mysterious man and the red demon.

The red devil stepped towards Patih Yarna who had fallen in a kneeling position and his sword had already been released. The red devil intended to finish off his opponent's life, he raised his sword intending to do a slash to behead but another voice appeared and stopped him.

“Stop! He is our prisoner. Do not try..”, not finished minister Balda talking red devil keep slashing his opponent's head until disconnected.

The look on Balda's face showed a displeased expression, he as the leader of this assault needed at least one important prisoner to scrape information about Adipura kingdom. In fact, his speech was not touched by the red devil who he had just seen this time.

“Do not rule me, our age is far away and I am not happy with the words of the prisoner. We stream black is more happy if it can finish off the flow of white as much as possible”, the red devil explains the reason.

“Design!”, Balda's minister drew his sword and directed it to the face of the red demon, although he knew that the red demon was in his alliance but the actions of the red demon had made him furious.

Minister Balda who is a white swordsman was offended by the words of the red devil. Suddenly a murderous aura started to come out from minister Balda's body and the red demons reacted similarly. Both of them were already preparing to fight with their swords tightly clasped together.
