The Musafir

Protective Spells for the Book

SENJAKALA. The coat closes the window as soon as possible to sit back at the back of his desk. Since the incident of the port attack that took place when dusk arrived, Mantingan so not too fond of twilight. Especially for now, Mantingan did not want to be disturbed by warriors who tried their luck by attacking him at a time like this.

Again he took hold of his informant, copying the Book of the Lotus on the scattered sheets on his table.

After writing up to a few more pieces, Mantingan placed his blinds on the table before leaning his back against the bench. Finished copying the Lotus Book, the young man exhaled a sigh of relief.

However, his work did not stop there. After the toss containing a copy of the Lotus Book was tied with a rope into a petal, the Mantan began to cast a magic spell to protect the copy.

With the magic spell he was about to cast, the book would not be destroyed so easily. If Mantan used the Sword Kiai Guru Kedai and all his strength to attack a copy of the book, then he would need at least two attempts to attack it to completely destroy the book.

Moreover, with the protective spell, the contents of the book could only be read by people who had dripped their blood on the magic spell. For this, Cana, Kina, and the Northern River Angel had already dripped their blood on Mantingan's Governing Pillar.

The protective spell he cast this time was one of the strongest spells he wielded, and was the single most powerful protective spell to protect precious books from the threat of theft.

Of course Mantingan did this not without reason. For him, the Book of the Lotus is the book that contains the most complete knowledge of truth he has ever encountered. If until the book is stolen, then distorted its contents for a certain purpose and purpose, it will be very dire circumstances.

The Lotus Book is able to change the view even the direction of life of the community at large. Given how the book actually contains about the guidelines of life and the relationship between humans and Sang Hyang. However, Mantingan found some passages in the book that were not at all beneficial to the royal government that greedily eroded its people.

If a kingdom does not like the existence of the Lotus Book, then it is not impossible that the book will be stolen by scribes who move in silence.

It was not easy for the kingdom to completely annihilate such a book from its territory. Moreover, the extermination attempt will bring up the possibility of rebellion from the disapproving side. So what can be done by the kingdom is to change the contents of the book a little, then spread it widely on the pretext that the book has been officially matured by the igama experts in the kingdom.

So Mantingan decided to protect the book by making it readable only by a few people. He felt that the famous Tarumanagara as a kingdom that likes to enrich the lives of its people even though it would be difficult to accept the existence of the Lotus Book.

His dark room was instantly brightened by orange glowing characters shooting out from within the Magic Throw that the Mantle had drawn. The young man then closed his eyes, controlling the characters into the copy book.

One by one, the characters darted into the body of the petals. Combined with the book copy. After the last character shot in, his room immediately turned dark because it had lost its light.

Chest Mantas fireworks quickly. Installing the magic spell, he had drained deeply on one of his seven chakras. It was not an easy attempt to cast the spell.

The copy was then put into a storage box. The mantang sits cross-legged on its stool to absorb the energy reserves in the surroundings.

MANTINGAN knocked on the door of Bidadari Sungai Utara's room. This time the girl opened the door wide without feeling suspicious of who was knocking on her. It was seen that he was holding two large bundles on his back.

“Just I'm about to approach you, Brother.” The Northern River Angel said with a slightly trembling voice. Presumably behind that veil, he smiled.

“You didn't ask for my help packing your things, Sister?”

The Northern River Angel shook his head slowly. “You have helped me so much, Brother. I won't feel good if I have to trouble you again.”

Mantingan shook his head anyway but he decided to forget this quickly. “Let me help you bring your bundle, Sister. After that, we have to go to Kana.” room

The North River Angel refused again, but Mantingan did not accept the rejection this time. Directly lifted the two bundles from the shoulders of the North River Angel.

While walking down the aisle, Mantingan asked, “Kina is still there, isn't it?”

Soft smiling coat. “I hope they are not preparing anything for me.”

The Bidadari Eyebrow of the North River was wrinkled confused. “Why is that so?”

“Maybe I will cry.” The mantel then laughed widely.

“Oh, you can cry too apparently,” said Angel Sungai Utara chuckling. “I guess a young man like yourself is always frozen hearted and heartless.”

The mantle choked on his own saliva in the middle of his laughter. Indeed, it was never expected that the Angel of the North River would say so.

“Ah, everyone has tears. If not used, then what do you do?”

“Everyone has a feeling of love. If not used, then what do you do?” The Angel of the North River throws the same pitched question.

Mantingan is able to read the omens, especially he does have a sense of sensitivity to the feelings of others from the beginning. So that he knew where the North River's Angel said. The man decided to shut up.

“I mean it to that question, Brother, I really hope you will answer it.”

Mantingan stopped his steps; the North River Angel acted similarly. Stand before the door of Cana's room.

“Everyone has a sense of love, but not everyone should use it to love their fellow man. I used my love for Gusti with all his truth.”

“But for what did Sang Hyang create two different kinds of humans, if not to love each other?”

Mantingan looked into the eyes of the Northern River Angel. “I know where this conversation is going—”

“Then you must know how I feel, Mantingan.” The North River Angel looked back at him fixedly, as if no one would be able to let go of his gaze. “We'll part ways soon—”

“I will follow your cruise until the middle of the sea.” Now it's the Mantingan's turn to cut.

“But we'll be parting ways in the near future at the end, won't we?”

“I'm coming with you or not coming with you to Champa, we'll stay apart.”

“I know!” The sound of the Northern River Angel slightly hardened. “We'll stay apart eventually, sooner or later, you say, right? But I don't want a breakup without you admitting feelings!”
