The Musafir
A Thousand Moon Against a Thousand Lontars
RIGHT after the foot touched the ground, the Mantang swept his Savrinade Sword straight ahead!
The body of the Thousand Book Swordsman who was only two steps away from him was bound to split in two if not quickly enough to avoid it. However, his intention was not to avoid the attack, but rather to repel it!
The Swordsman of the Thousand Books took out a throw from his cloak pocket and then used it to hold back the Savrinadeya Sword. That piece of ejection can completely dispel the blade of the sword that can truly split the hair into many parts!
Even if it doesn't make sense, Mantingan doesn't waste time thinking. He again attacked the Thousand Book Swordsman in a row, but that was how the old man could fend off his entire attack without looking any trouble at all, with just a piece of ejection!
Want not to, Mantingan so think. Does Pendekar Seribu Kitab indeed have the power of mandraguna to be able to make a sheet of lontar able to fend off the sharp blades of Savrinadeya, or is it a sheet of the palm that is a sacred heirloom mandraguna? What if both possibilities are true?
The mantan began to play the Kiai Kedai Sword on his left arm. I hope it puts a little bit of pressure on the opponent. Thanks to his strenuous training in the Thousand Drops of Water, Mantingan was able to play two swords at once very well.
The Swordsman of the Thousand Books responded by taking out another piece of throw, and now it had been clutched in a piece of thrower in each hand. Combating Mantingan attacks from two sides.
The fight is back in balance. The Mantingan continued to launch attacks uninterruptedly, but even the Swordsman of the Thousand Books could always repel it without any difficulty at all.
The fight took place in the middle of the backyard of the Kotaraja Library which is actually quite crowded with people who are reading the book. However, both the Mantingan and the Swordsman of the Thousand Books moved at a speed that almost matched the speed of the mind, so that even a swordsman could only see greatness. Whereas the eyes of a layman would not be able to catch him at all.
The tea passed. Countless more had how many they exchanged attacks. Now the two have shifted very far from the Kotaraja Library, arriving in a quiet settlement only. It was there without agreement but as if it had been agreed, the Mantingan and the Swordsman of the Thousand Books stopped each other from attacking.
On the roofs of two opposite buildings, both stood firm. Face to face. Gaze each other.
“No one has been able to withstand my onslaught all this time.”
Was it true what the old man said while it was clear that he had only been defending without replying?
Despite knowing the reality, Mantingan chose not to speak of it. In terms of fighting for honor, words that might otherwise provoke anger are something that is not at all necessary.
Then so then Mantingan said before saying, “This young me is too low to accept the praise of Mr.”
Is not there in the Mantingan words a very subtle innuendo so that the feelings are difficult for anyone to realize?
“Then let this old me teach you a little bit of learning. If it will be useful for your adventure tomorrow, because I really feel I will not be able to beat you in this fight.” The Swordsman of the Thousand Books smiled subtly. Now it no longer looks very creepy as before, but very warm like the morning sun!
Seeing that smile had brought the memory of Mantingan to the North River Angel. Didn't the girl always say that her smile felt as warm as the morning sun?
Still in a down position, Mantingan again said, “What kind of lesson would you like to give to me?”
“Surely the Child will know it after feeling ready to receive it.”
The mantle slowly lifted his body. The Swordsman of the Thousand Books was still at his smile. Then said Mantingan with confidence, “I am always ready, Mr.”
Seeing Mantingan's confidence, the Swordsman of the Thousand Books nodded and smiled with satisfaction. Then after taking a few steps back, he spread both hands wide.
“People call myself the Swordsman of a Thousand Books, when in fact I would rather be called the Swordsman of a Thousand Lontars!”
Seeing the awesomeness that was exposed clearly before his eyes, Mantingan could not help but gulp. It's too horrible!
“Isn't this the science you're looking for, Hero Man?”
Mantingan did not answer, but it was clear that the statement of the Swordsman of the Thousand Books was very precise!
“You will get it after successfully facing this one, Son. Steady!”
The millions of throws hovering in the sky began to move closer to Mantingan. With the Science of Hearing Dew Drops, he knew that the droplets were not just ordinary throwers. Inside it contained an invading magic spell, also very sharp on the side!
At first, Mantingan felt very daunted. What he will face now will be far more difficult than the thousands of needles and flying knives he faced last night. Those spouts numbered in the millions, and no Chitra Anggini could help him here!
But when he remembered that he should have died that night, the blue tremor in his chest evaporated away. Replaced by a sense of courage that gushes as hard as a waterfall!
The mantel put up the horses just as those millions of Magic Throws shot towards him! Death really feels so easy!
“Thousand Moon Gobbling Stars!” Mantingan recite the mantra with all his majesty, let his mainstay style is also known by his opponent.
The body of the Mantingan disappeared from its place. Change into a shadow. Then the glowing circles emerged from his place. Spreading to all directions. More than hundreds of thousands!
That was the Thousand Moon Devouring Star Skull capable of making his sword blade multiply into thousands, which swirled in light, making it like a thousand moons devouring the stars!
If at the battle in the north sea Javadvipa Mantingan only rely on one sword to play this style, then now Mantingan rely on two swords at once. Of course that way, the sword shadows created will be far more. Coupled with the results of training in the Thousand Drops of Water that is not playing, then the Thousand Moon Swallowing Star Movement that is currently practicing Mantis is really terrible!
Those circles of light engulfed the millions of Magic Throws belonging to the Thousand Book Swordsman hovering in the sky. No more than two eyes, a piece of ejection was no longer visible in space. End already!
The hundreds of thousands of luminous circles turned towards the Swordsman of the Thousand Books, which could no longer be contained by him.
But out of the hundreds of thousands of luminous circles, there was only one that actually hit the breastplate of the Thousand Book Swordsman, making his death less grievous.
When the old man fell down on the street, Mantings immediately flashed up to him.

Episodes of the month: 14/40
The five-episode bonus will be sliced after the Musafir reaches 1550 favorites. Honestly, actually I do not want to be too confused about the data of the Musafir who is increasingly declining, but I do not want to give up just like that. However, I still need a rock from the Believing Readers to share the Musafir with friends, family, or anyone else who would otherwise need this story.
Next, I would like to ask the readers to write down any criticism and suggestions regarding the Musafir. According to friends, what makes the Musafir not too good compared to similar novels? Is it because the writing is less neat, ambiguous, or other things? Just write in the comments column honestly, I am always open to criticism and suggestions.
