The Musafir

Second Danger Signs

AFTER a while passed, the port finally found its silence. No one seems to be passing by.

The lay people have gone to evacuate as soon as possible, for they know very well that the black warriors will do so very, very badly that the victims will feel very grateful if given death.

While the warriors in the White Wind Padepokan have gone to their respective places and prepared to sacrifice their lives to face the enemy, because they also know very well what bad things will happen to innocent people if the onslaught of enemy attacks do not succeed they can withstand. Everyone's hope in the harbor is focused on them.

Mantingan finally realized, that it was likely that only he, the North River Angel, and Cana and Kina alone still survive in the Night Inn. Because when he combed all parts of the inn using the Science of Hearing Dew Drops, Mantingan could not hear the sound of signs of human existence in it.

Then the mantel smiled thinly. It was possible that his actions were indeed classified as crazy; leaving the children and a beautiful girl under the threat of the attacking black-flow swordsmen group. If this attack could not be contained, then Mantingan did not dare to imagine what the enemy would do to the North River Angel and the children who were with him.

So even though Mantingan looks calm on his stool, the young man's heart is actually pounding very strongly.

The same thing happened to Bidadari Sungai Utara. Although she was telling a beautiful bedtime story and looked comfortable under a warm blanket with Kana and Kina, she was, but the girl's palms were actually sweating coldly due to high anxiety and anxiety.

***

I DON'T KNOW how long it's been. Mantingan felt the time pass so slowly, but he realized that the time that had passed was actually only a short time.

That is how the time felt a swordsman would be very very slow if he was on full alert.

With his vigilance, a swordsman is able to see that something that is moving fast becomes so slow at the latest, like nothing slower than that.

But if you are not alert, alias in negligence, a swordsman will feel the same as what is felt by ordinary people. Something that moves quickly will still be seen as something that moves quickly; that takes place at the blink of an eye it will still be seen only by a blink of an eye.

Therefore, it is mentioned that neglect is something very very dangerous for a swordsman.

Mantingan continued to sit on his stool, and it felt like time had passed for him so long. In fact, Bidadari Sungai Utara still has not completed a fairy tale that he read to Cana and Kina.

Until it came when the Mantingan ear using the Science of Hearing Dew Drops managed to catch the incisions from a distance a variety of sounds that sounded very terrible.

At that instant, the look on Mantingan's face turned bad. How could it not be so if the voice he heard was the creepy sound of the battle there?

With his hearing ability so sharp that he can reach even very far away sounds, Mantingan can hear almost all the sounds of battle. Arrow buzzing. Desing sword. Metal lacing metal cladding. Firefires. Bread on meat. Makian. The roar before death.

It all sounds even more horrible to know that he is just sitting still. Not a bit of himself moves to help brothers and sisters who may be in need of his help.

But that's the way it is, and that's how it's best. The mantle should sit and remain silent. It is not allowed to go anywhere unless the circumstances have been really urgent.

Mantingan was bluffing his teeth while closing his eyes. Attempting to convince himself that the battle might still occur with or without him at the port. He cannot blame himself.

The sound of claps and canang again spread the air for the second time! Today it is harder, faster, and more rowdy than the first. It was clearly a very high danger sign!

Not only Mantingan was surprised, the North River Angel, Cana, and Kina who were in bed were equally surprised. The sound of the beautiful North River Angel while being a storyteller was immediately changed with the sound of a kangungan and canang that was so terrible.

The mantle quickly stood up from his chair and stuck his head out the window to see what was happening.

The first thing he saw was an omnipotent blue sea that seemed endless with orange light at dusk. Not far from the shore, black smoke rose from five enemy ships surrounded by several White Wind Ships. Although it looks chaotic, but the battle can still be said to be under the control of the White Wind Army.

Then, what would make the guard of the tower hit the kangungan and canang as a warning sign of danger for the second time?

Mantingan looked in the opposite direction, which was the south direction. The place where most of the harbor is located, and the rest is a green wilderness. Instantly that was the instant that the Mantingan instantly became incomparable.

“ENEMIES FROM THE MAINLAND!!”

The screams of the tower guards echoed throughout the harbor. Commemorate anyone who may still be inside the port.

Three fire-fueled sandaren arrows soared towards the troops fighting in the ocean. Roaring in the air with his voice that carried a sign of distress. Request assistance.

Stunned mantle stuffed for a moment. Now that everything is starting to appear clearly on the head of the Mantingan, the attack on the sea is just a cheat for a real ground attack!

The mantle did not wait any longer. For an attack like this, he couldn't stay silent anymore. The sword Kiai Kedai and also the caping hanging on the wall of the room. But before darting away, Mantingan first facing the North River Angel, Cana, and Kina. The look he gave was sharp and alert!

“Sasmita, protect children no matter what. Kana, protect Kina no matter how much it costs. And Kina, be the reason that they are not lazy to continue to survive. I'll be back, that's my promise. But if I don't keep my word, you should still go to Champa.”

After saying that parting sentence, Mantingan's body instantly disappeared from their sight all. The window curtain fluttered out, a sign that something had passed through it at high speed.

“Brother Man, you should take refuge.”

The white-masked swordsman who had previously encountered the Mantingan was now flashed right beside him.

“Not for this time,” says Mantingan. His eyes looked straight ahead. Several other White Mask Warriors shot around Mantingan towards the south.

In a relatively short time, Mantingan and dozens of other White Mask Troops reached the wide open port gate. Then hundreds of black shadows shot out from the forest!
