A humming sound was heard as Wira threw the iron bars using a stone in annoyance. For 15 years, he has been locked up and treated like an animal by officers.
Arjuna and Bagaskara also felt the same way as Wira. Removed from the post of General and imprisoned on false charges, who is not upset?
For 40 years of service to the Kingdom and fighting to the point of becoming a General, it was not easy for those from the lower classes.
Even their dantians were made to be destroyed by the Court Councils, to the point of making the Cultivation Land they had achieved disappear just like that.
The hero, Arjuna, and Bagaskara will never forget who caused them to suffer to the lowest point.
"Just because we are from a lower class society, they are justly accusing us of being the cause of the death of the son of Mahendra's family."
The hero resentfully hit the cell wall and made his hand bleed. The hatred of the nobles further fostered in the heart of the Hero. He still remembers how his wife and daughter were executed right in front of him for baseless accusations.
"Calm the Hero..." Arjuna patted the back of the Wira whose emotions were being unstable. Arjuna realized the feelings his friend was feeling.
The hero suddenly brushed off Arjuna's hand and grabbed the man's collar in annoyance. "Tell me, how can I calm down after my son and wife are executed right in front of me, Arjuna?!"
Arjuna could only turn his face away when asked by Wira. It certainly makes Wira more upset and encourages Arjuna to fall down.
Bagaskara, who felt that Wira would do something crazy by hooking a rope, immediately locked the movement of his friend. "Wira, relax. Is it the way you ended your life, that you could bring them back?"
"Let go of me Bagas. Everything no longer matters. How can you two still be calm, when your family is also executed?!" The hero shouted while struggling for Bagaskara to release his lockdown.
What Wira said was not wrong. Arjuna and Bagaskara then recalled the incident where their families were executed in the Palace courtyard.
The anger and disappointment they felt. But in order to avenge this injustice, they could only survive even though the possibility of revenge never existed.
They have been sentenced to life imprisonment and will never be released until they die of rot.
The criminals who heard the commotion in the cell of the three men of the former General of the Six Colors Flag, then approached them while carrying buckets of cold water.
"Can the three of you shut up?!" A prison officer asked while knocking on the cell of the three former Generals in annoyance.
But Wira instead of silence actually spit on the prison officer, to make him feel annoyed. Some officers dragged Wira out and started torturing her.
The hero begins to be beaten without a fight until battered using a wooden stick. Not only that, the head of the hero several times put in a bucket filled with water to make him dying.
Seeing the Wira who was unconscious, the officers then threw the bodies of the Wira into the cell and doused Arjuna and Bagaskara using cold water to make them drenched.
"You royal rats should have died with your family!" The prison guards then left behind a bucket of very unfit food to eat before leaving the cell.
Arjuna clenched his hands looking at the bucket containing leftover food, which should be animal feed. His sense of regret towards the prison guards was growing when he could only see Wira being tortured to the point of death.
Bagaskara himself tried to save Wira and was lucky that the man's life could still be saved even though his condition was so very alarming.
Bagaskara who was asked to help by Wira felt confused then looked towards Arjuna to strengthen their friend's mentality.
"No matter, we all have to live so that our family sacrifices are not in vain..." Arjuna smiled warmly as he calmed his friend who started crying considering his executed family.

Meanwhile the competition that the selected soldiers participated in began to show the final round. Now only 6 soldiers remain.
They are none other than Raka, Bayu, Angga, Satria, Arya, and Dawn. The six soldiers must now compete with each other to win the title that is already in sight.
The referee then called Bayu and Dawn to go up to the arena. The selection of the opponent this time there was clearly interference from Bayu who did not want to fight directly Raka, Angga, Satria, and Arya.
Bayu prefers to set the Dawn which is the weakest continent among them, so that at least it can enter the top 5.
The innocent dawn does not seem to realize that Bayu has planned a way, to bring himself down using a cunning strategy.
In any case the fight between Dawn and Bayu is clearly out of balance. Dawn itself is a melee attacker, while Bayu is a formation expert.
The position of Dawn was exacerbated by his blunt weapon that could even be destroyed at any time after passing through various previous fierce fights.
The referee then immediately started a fight between them. Bayu swiftly moved away from keeping his distance from Dawn and pulled out his weapon in the form of a brush.
Dawn who realized that Bayu was weak in close combat immediately tried to reduce the distance between them.
Bayu who can guess the steps of Dawn then smiled faintly. When Dawn approached, Bayu directly activated the trap formation he had set up.
A huge explosion immediately blew Fajr away until it made it almost out of the arena. Dawn also received quite serious burns and whimpered in pain.
Bayu who saw Fajar got serious injuries did not stay silent. He immediately seized this opportunity and intended to torture Dawn first.
A number of papers of the explosion formation then Bayu threw towards Fajar to make a series of explosions. "Death to the commoners!" Bayu laughed as he continued to throw explosive papers at Fajar.
The incident clearly made the audience could only be silent to see the one-sided massacre by Bayu. Naturally in terms of weapons to cultivation realm, Bayu is superior to Dawn.
Arya squinted her eyes trying to see the condition of Dawn after the thick smoke slowly began to disappear. Arya shook her head after seeing Dawn was already unconscious with serious burns.
"His legacy deserves appreciation. Even though he had already lost heavily, he was still trying to keep his body from collapsing to the ground." Arya praised the persistence of Dawn.
The referee who saw Fajar was unconscious then announced Bayu to qualify for the next round. The dawn itself was then brought by the healers for treatment.
Bayu did not directly come down from the top of the arena but challenged Arya to fight with him. The referee was at first a little confused and looked towards the Generals before getting to finally allow Bayu to fight with Arya.
