At midnight, Raka and Apin race their horses out of Topala County. Apin had already decided to go to the palace to close his report. He invited Raka together~ together depart from the blue bay to the city of PADANGARI, one of the major cities of capital refusers. They will transit in the city, Raka can comb eastward to reach the forbidden jungle. Apin took the south side to reach the capital.
Raka had said goodbye to Masni and bowo's mother, but redirected it from Ratih. The teenage girl was so close to Raka, they didn't want to make her sad. Masni's mother could not hold Raka even though she loved him as much as Bowo. Raka needs to live her own life and she hopes that Raka will mate with Ayandaru. While bowo fully supports the departure of Raka because he advocated it.
That night in his room accompanied by Bowo, the mother masni opened a parcel wrapped in cloth given by Raka. he opened it because he remembered Raka's message, wait for Ratih to sleep first and after he left. Masni was surprised to see a pile of gold coins in the parcel and a piece of paper on it.
"i'm sorry if I ate too much. Or my snoring is too hard to make the same mother sleep Ratih not soundly.
This is all I can give, Half my mother saved in the county savings building for the cost of education Ratih. A quarter made Bowo for the cost of getting married and starting a new life, a quarter for mom. Take care of your health. I will definitely be back to visit you.
RACCOONS
Masni's mother was only able to cry reading the letter, while the bowo passed away to the back of the house, leaning beside the stables.
Towards the morning after one day and two nights on the way Raka and Apin entered the first district towards the city of PADANGARI, In front of the left of the road they saw a guard tent. Apin felt the tent was newly established because he often passed the route. Some people were standing in the middle of the street staring at Raka and Apin who were approaching.
* who are they pinning?
* seems like a darma group, there are usually no checkpoints let alone done by them.
Raka and Apin stopped and got off their horse.
* apologies mr~tuan, your trip is interrupted. We from the darma group are carrying out the task. We will examine you, please cooperate and honor our agreement in the martial world.
The leader of the guard post told the rules because they saw Apin like a swordsman while in Raka they did not see his characteristics.
* you in brown clothes please go two steps ahead of me without making a gesture of provocation.
Apin carried out the command of the post leader, while the other post members prepared for alert.
* what's your name? Where and where are you going?
* my name is Apin and my friend Raka, we are from Topala district fishing village. We headed to Padangari to work as building porters.
* are you a swordsman?
* no chairman, we're just odd jobs who make a living where the windfall is available.
The head of the post watched Apin closely. Raka just quietly flanked by two groups of darma.
* all right, but we'll still check what you're carrying.
* please chairman.
After quite a long time of examination was completed, Raka and Apin passed away.
* I don't know, it looks like something's going on in the martial world.
* why aren't the soldiers doing it?
Apin turned to Raka as they rested in a cottage beside the rice field. Apin as if~ was trying to understand Raka's question.
* you don't know the rules of the martial world?
Raka shook her head.
* hhhmmm, you're from anywhere, man. For hal~hal who deal with martial arts, the empire gives responsibility to themselves, they make darma group in charge of order existing kollege2. Then the darma group is under the auspices of an institution in the range so that there is clear instructions when they are on duty.
* oh so, so what do you think is going on in the martial world right now?
* I don't know Ra, later in the city of Padangari we just look for answers. I'll try asking at the bureau in town.
* may I ask you something, man, it looks like you're a stranger to your world. You are a swordsman.
* haven't I told you. I don't know shit.
Apin exhaled a slightly heavy breath.
* i'm an investigator for Ra, and your brother is an officer. I have access to any information, I want to help you guys.
The look on Raka's face turned gloomy, she lowered her head with her eyes closed.
* I've never met anyone like you pin. You're a good friend.
* I understand Ra, the burden is very heavy but not everything can be borne alone. I'll help you fully with what I can.
The cottage on the edge of the rice field was quiet, only the sound of water gurgling through the ditch.
* damned valley.
Apin turned to look at Raka, the short words he said made the feathers Iuduk Apin goosebumps.a place that is forbidden to humans there because of its arrogance.
* come on pin, let's keep going. I'm gonna take a break. We're looking for lodging in the city.
Apin patted~nepuk Raka's shoulder when they were about to leave to continue the journey to the city of Padangari.
* I'll try to find the information you mentioned earlier. Hopefully something can be obtained.
Raka smiled on her horse looking at Apin. He drove his horse quickly to enjoy the whirring of the wind that fluttered his hair. From behind Apin stared at Raka's back full of care. He will help Raka find what is the burden of her life.
