The Musafir

Dances That Save Science

The mantas are getting more and more astonished. Now even his forehead has shrunk. If in the purchase agreement between them does not use the money as an exchange rate, then it is certain that the information sold by the Bloody Kelewang Pendekar is a very important information, he said, for it is included in something invaluable.

“We will indemnify one Stone, which you know is worth a thousand pieces of gold. But if you don't want ...”

There was doubt in Kartika's speech until the sentence had to stop.

“If I don't want to, then what?”

“We will present the Fall Leaf Dance to you guys!”

MANTINGAN continued to appear as if he did not listen to the conversation at all, by continuing to wipe the back of Munding Caraka, which in fact made the buffalo become confused.

The atmosphere returned to silence after Kartika said that her puppet cast would play a dance called the Fallen Leaf Dance. Mantingan is not very understanding with the meaning of just a dance for the warriors of the underground martial world, because they should rarely waste time on matters that have no interest, because they should not, but he knew that the Fallen Leaf Dance was not an ordinary dance so it could make the Bloody Kelewang Swordsman take the time to think.

It was in between the silence that Mantingan again caught the conversation in the tent held in whispers. The mantang immediately turned his hearing towards that conversation.

“Why did Big Brother say that? Isn't the Falling Leaf Dance a treasure of our group that is so precious that it is not worth sharing with people outside our group?”

“I don't know either, but I know that Big Brother only took the best decision from the best for all of us. We better follow what you decide. Didn't we promise to entrust our lives to Brother?”

“I'm just worried if Big Brother does that just to protect us. The Falling Leaf Dance held an extremely high martial arts knowledge, it was too precious to give to such an unbelievable group of people like them.” The voice sounded helplessly. “If I have to fight to the death to protect that science, then I will.”

The mantle silently frowned his forehead. If the woman said that she was willing to fight even to the death, didn't that indicate that she had the ability to fight?

“Sama like you, I am also willing to use all abilities even though it must end horribly!”

Now it is clear to Mantingan that this group of puppet players is not just a group of comfort women who travel from one place to another. With them talking about the Fallen Leaf Dance that held a high martial arts knowledge, which coupled with their determination to fight to the death, it had become clear that the group of puppet players contained warriors!

At dinner last night, Chitra Anggini signaled to him that the group of puppet players was one of the many groups that hunted him. Mantingan soon realized with a landslide, these puppet players were assassins who hid their true identity in masks and shawls!

And it became clear also the cause why the group as big as them still remained intact despite passing the path filled with thieves.

So, why would Kartika let Mantingan join his entourage if not to protect the wayang women with everything in them? Mantingan was convinced that underground network warriors like Kartika would never have trouble finding the Balian Valley, so there was really no need for a Mantingan to lead them to that place.

However, Mantingan remained level-headed. In a situation where he can be attacked at any time and from any side, it is appropriate that he keeps his head calm. He is confident in his abilities, but his confidence is not enough.

The establishment of Man with his three fighting attitudes will also give Mantingan many beneficial effects in the fight, because the whole movement of science is difficult to estimate by anyone.

Moreover, he still had his Savrinadeya Science which at first could not be used at all.

However, now Mantingan is able to create a set of wind as sharp as a sword, cut the ends of the hair into seven parts, and split the sword and heirloom shield as easily as cutting the leaves of the sword to a certain degree.

With all the abilities that the Mantingan possessed, it felt extremely impossible for him to be defeated by any swordsman. Another word, Mantingan had become an invincible swordsman, so it was indeed worthy of the Sky Stakeholder's authority. But despite this, Mantingan did not know the warriors with any kind of power who inhabited Suvarnadvipa.

If it is assumed that the children in Suvarnadvipa have regarded witchcraft as a toy, then what about the adults? In Javadvipa, the swordsman who mastered witchcraft was not much, and the children on the island only thought to play with his friends, without having had time to think about witchcraft with all its complexity.

Doesn't that fact signify that most people in Suvarnadvipa believe in the martial world as a real being? And are not there not many people who believe in the martial world, so will many people who decide to enter into it, the same gives birth to new experts in the martial world?

So with all that consideration, Mantingan will never feel himself to have the upper hand. But above the sky there is still sky.

Not one person has ever reached the pinnacle of the martial world and been the strongest above all else, for the martial world does not have a peak.

Meanwhile, the conversation between Kartika and Pendekar Kelewang Berdarah resumed.

“Though it is still a loss for us who have lost two people on the way, we will still accept it. But for all that you have done to us in this place, the Blood Devils Group will never consider you friends.”

“We, the Leaf Dancers Group, free anyone to argue anything against us.” Kartika tightened her voice. “If our guests think we are unfriendly, then we don't care. We never put forward feelings, but rather interests.”

“Alright! All righty! Women never change; they talk a lot. We'll watch your dance, then our business here is done. You better prepare everything as quickly as possible. We don't like to wait,” said Pendekar Kelewang Berdarah in the end. “But before that, I will ask.”

The mantel holds his breath as well. With his ability to read signs, he really knew what that person was going to ask!

“Your group is famous for never accepting men to join, no matter how effeminate the man who begged you to be included in the Fallen Leaf Group. So why did I see a man with a buffalo in the distance? I saw you also sign him, as if asking not to come closer.”

Hearing that, then as soon as possible Mantingan back rubbed his shoulder back. Act as if you don't know about the conversation.

“He was indeed part of our entourage, but he was not from our group. The man is an ordinary sword sorcerer I hired for disguise.”
