The Legend of the Cultivation World

Arriving in Madya City

The journey of Arya and her new colleagues resumed after getting a ban from the special forces of the Kingdom of Angasari who wanted to bring Princess Amanda home.

But their journey was forced to stop after finding a river that separated the mainland with the area where the city of Madya stood.

There is indeed a pedestrian bridge, but Fajar is hesitant to cross the bridge because the condition is no longer feasible to use. Dawn was worried when crossing, the bridge would collapse not be strong enough to withstand the weight of a horse carriage.

Everyone also seems confused about what to do. Repairing the bridge will take a long time. They could actually cross the bridge, but they had to leave the horse carriage and continue on foot.

Princess Amanda suddenly got off the horse carriage and walked towards the riverbank. "Everything that blocks my way will I freeze." Said Princess Amanda who then stepped on the water in the river.

The river flow slowly froze from where Princess Amanda had spread to the other end. Fish that are jumping on the surface of the water also do not escape freezing.

Princess Amanda then returned to the carriage and found everyone flabbergasted to see how she had frozen a river.

"Why do you see me like that? Want to freeze it too?" Princess Amanda asked as she stared at everyone sharply for not liking getting any attention from them.

Hearing the words of Princess Amanda, everyone reflexively shook their heads and took their eyes off the woman.

Dawn then carefully ran the horse-drawn carriage on the surface of the ice river so as not to make them all slip.

After making it through the ice river, Arya then went down and used her White Flame to melt back the frozen river.

In just a blink of an eye the stream flow returned to normal and the frozen fish began to swim just like before the river froze.

See the abilities possessed by Arya and Princess Amanda. The admiration and pride of being able to be a part of both people was felt by Arjuna, Fajar, Wira, and Bagaskara.

The four men feel lucky to be part of Arya and Princess Amanda's group. Only a fool would make the two lovebirds enemies. In a short time they could instantly be defeated by those two people.

...****************...

Seven days later from a distance Arya's entourage could see the walls of Madya City. In the past week of course the journey they took did not go well, there are still some bandits who always block and try to squeeze their property.

The bandits were clearly directly influenced by Arya's group. In fact, there have been 5 bandit settlements that they scorched earth along with its inhabitants. The move they were forced to take so that at least the looting action carried out by some bandits could be reduced.

Because he had taken care of 5 mountain bandit settlements. The trip, which originally only lasted for 4 days, had to retreat to one week.

Some farmers who were taking care of their crops in the fields paused for a moment when they saw a horse-drawn carriage passing through the main road leading to the gate of Madya City.

The farmers looked at the horse carriage with cautious gazes. They could certainly distinguish the horse-drawn carriages that transported the new inhabitants of the City of Madya, and the horse-drawn carriages that had only personal interests in the City.

Damaged bridges that were not passed by the Aryan entourage, were actually the actions of residents of the City of Madya as a form of protest to the Kingdom who set them up.

On the other hand, Arya's group was a little surprised to see the existence of agricultural activities in Madya City. The bad news about the condition of Kota Madya turned out to be quite in excess, and not too severe as reported.

Arriving in front of the entrance gate of Madya City. Some residents, acting like security guards but not soldiers, stopped their horse-drawn carriages for checks.

"Show me your identity and tell me what you need here." Said an officer who looked displeased when he saw the warrior clothes worn by Dawn.

Feeling intimidated by the officer, Fajar becomes a little nervous and asks Arya to explain their arrival there, because Arya is the person in charge of the trip.

Arya got down from the horse-drawn carriage to several officers who were standing guard in front of the entrance gate. His tall posture and wearing ordinary clothes to cover his muscles, instantly made the officers a little intimidated.

"I'd like to meet with the city's in charge. There's something I need to talk to him about." Arya looked down on the officers in front of her. Not because Arya belittles them, but Aryan's body is slightly taller than most men in general.

To reinforce the intent of his arrival, Arya then issued the General badge to the officers which instantly made them become a little afraid.

This is the first time they have received a visit from a general. Moreover, those who came were not just ordinary Generals but from special divisions of the Kingdom.

The officers were frightened, angry, and curious to see a young General from the special division of the Kingdom to come to the city that was famous as a dumping ground.

Without waiting for a long time the officers then opened the gate and told Arya the residence of the person in charge of Madya City.

Aryan's entourage then entered the City of Madya. Once inside they could immediately see the condition of Madya City which was quite apprehensive.

The buildings inside the city of Madya suffered severe damage as if there had just been a transitional rebellion of power in the city.

Although the news circulating about the condition of Madya City was not entirely true, but the news was also not entirely wrong when they witnessed the conditions there themselves directly.

People were starving and many had no place to live. Even for shelter, they only rely on tents made of makeshift materials.

This sighting is no different from the slums. Still great despite being in a slumped condition like now, the residents of Madya City did not attack each other and actually helped each other.

This was proven when the Aryan troupe saw someone who divided one loaf of bread for several others fairly.

"I don't think they're as anarchist as the news is." Said Arjuna who was amazed to see the interaction between the residents of Madya City.

When compared to the people in the capital and other cities. The people of Kota Madya actually appreciate each other more because they have the same fate.

"Sometimes a lot of news does not immediately be caught raw and must be sought to know the truth." Arya who was satisfied to see the interaction of the residents of Madya City.
