The Musafir
Battle at the Port Door
“Brother Man, you should take refuge with others.”
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!
***
EVERYTHING happened very quickly, even in the eyes of the warriors. No doubt, the two armies met each other in the air. The battle immediately broke out!
The mantle pulls the Kiai Kedai Sword out of its cage before blasting away all the enemies closest to it.
The battle is like a bird fight against a bird. Swordsmen from both sides flashed in the air and fought weapons with each other until one of them floated down like a bird that died in a single collision.
The White Mask army was actually outnumbered, but his skills as well as their agility in sword-playing and dodging were able to cover up the shortcomings. Coupled with the presence of Mantingan who was like a god of salvation to them; but like a god of death to his enemies.
The mantle only once twice retraced the ground, before it flashed back into the air snatching its enemies. In one go, the Mantang was able to kill a dozen enemy warriors.
The battle was quickly settled with the White Mask Army as the victor. Hundreds of corpses of black-clad warriors were scattered near the port gate.
Some of the others who are still alive try their best to take the poisonous potion in their pockets before swallowing it until the life is separated from the body.
While there were only two warriors who died from the White Mask Army. They cannot be saved because the enemy uses poison on every sword.
A white-masked swordsman picked up an enemy sword stuck in the ground before looking at it. After that he let out a cry, “Everyone listen! The enemy that came this time was from the Sword Intan Group! The one we just faced was known as the Wolf Hunt Squad. Never underestimate the power of the enemy from now on, and immediately form a defensive line to protect the port!”
While sheathing Kiai Kedai Sword, Mantingan listened to the words of the swordsman. The Diamond Sword Group did divide the warriors in it into several armies according to the level of the warriors in it.
The first and lowest rank was the Wolf Hunt Squad. They used to accomplish small tasks given by their group, and sometimes such sacrificial tasks were inflicted upon them. The sword they used was still a diamond sword, but not the best.
The second level is the Mountain Tiger Forces. In assault tasks, they are always sent because the swordsman-breeder ability in it is considered better. The blade eyes of the swords they used were made of pure diamond.
And the last one is the Six Pillars of Intan. This team consists of warriors who are second to none in the Intan Sword Group. All the information about the Six Pillars of Intan is not available much, including about what kind of tasks they take. If available, the price is very high.
After giving an appeal as well as an order to the entire White Mask Army that was there, the swordsman who seemed to be the hulubalang then approached Mantingan.
“Young Brother, thank you for helping us. Thanks to you, the number of casualties on our side can be greatly reduced. But what we will face later is no longer something as light as before. So I ask you to evacuate along with the Angel of the North River.” The coach explained calmly.
“I know that, Brother.” Mantingan took a cold breath, looking towards the thick forest in front of him. The wind gushed slowly, bringing the fishy scent of blood into his sense of smell. “But was it Old Brother that we had actually been surrounded?”
I heard the breath of the warrior. He also realized that it would be very dangerous for the Mantingan and the Northern River Angel if they left the port now.
“What I can do here is fight against them, Old Brother. Then please accept myself as part of your army.”
The swordsman thought for a moment before nodding his head slowly. “Means you must disguise yourself wearing a robe and mask, Young Brother.”
The leader of the army turned back to Mantingan. “This group of Hunter Wolves is most likely meant to test our level of ability and tactics.”
The mantan nodded his head in agreement. “If so, then the enemy is one step ahead of us.”
“Being one step behind them is actually a fortune, Brother.”
When the squad leader said so, Mantingan looked at him strangely. Without the need to make a sound though, it was clear that he was asking the meaning of the words.
“Our position has now been outnumbered, Brother Man. Let alone to surpass them, to compensate them alone was already very difficult. So I beg your forgiveness and to the Angel of the North River, if things will change very quickly and I will never have time to apologize to you.”
The mantel smiled widely. “What does Old Brother say? As the leader of the army, you are the hope of your army. If Old Brother says such a thing, then you have actually announced our defeat.”
The leader of the army realized that Mantingan's words were very much true. “I can't lie to them, Brother.”
“Without you saying it though, they have known the circumstances, Brother. Right now, all they need is a sense of passion from you.”
The head of the squad thought for a while before finally taking a deep breath. He himself understood what he had to do.
“Teams! Back to Night Bunian Inn!”
***
BIDADARI North River looked at Cana and Kina alternately shortly after Mantingan flashed away from her room.
Now how the girl knows that she has full responsibility for the safety of Cana and Kina.
The North River Angel approached the window before closing and locking it tightly. He grabbed a piece of Light Magic Throw on the table to then light it up to illuminate the room.
Back he looked at Kana and Kina before saying hello-goals, “Everything will be fine. Mantingan is a powerful swordsman mandraguna, you know that isn't it?”
Kana and Kina nodded their heads. Moreover, to Cana, he was much more aware of how much power the Mantingan stored. The boy is sure, if the match one against one, then Mantingan able to defeat all warriors in Javadvipa.
The Angel of the North River had the same belief as Cana, but he did not know what kind of enemy was coming.
The White Pigeon Sword was scrawled on his waist belt. The lock is always unlocked, and several times the girl is seen clutching the handle with worry.
“Kana, where is pe—”
The words of the North River Angel must be restrained because his ears catch the sound of the sound of a smooth step from outside the room. He immediately pulled the Bloodthirsty White Pigeon Sword out from within its sheath, and unsheathed it forward while stepping forward slowly. The girl acted quickly.
Kana and Kina frowned because none of them understood the situation, but they knew that the Northern River Angel had felt, or seen, or heard something outside the room!
