The Musafir
Letter of Plan from Mrs Darkness
“Do not directly hold!” CHITRA Anggini exclaimed suddenly, “th those spears were fitted with trapping magic spells, you would feel like you were struck by lightning if the spell had not been removed!”
The coat moves the hand. “What's the spell?”
“The guy said something as a spell opener, but I forgot about it.” Chitra Anggini smiled stiffly. “I'm afraid we won't be able to see the plan of the Darkness Lady, but aren't we also able to move with the plan ourselves?”
Mantingan looked at the girl with a hard to interpret gaze before finally shaking his head. How can Chitra Anggini say this so easily and without any feelings of guilt at all? He chose to immediately grab a bunch of throws in the drawer.
“Do not!”
Free, harsh warnings from Chitra Anggini are completely ignored. His hand kept moving, kept moving, getting closer, until it finally touched the throws. Next, there appeared a spark of light from Mantingan's fingertips, but the young man did not act as if he had just been struck by lightning.
“If the magic spell is like this, it is not difficult for me to open it.” The mantle smiled thinly and took out the thrower from inside the drawer. “You've read it, Chitra?”
“Cannot. I only caught a glimpse of it before I tied it back up and put it in the drawer. I'm really worried that someone else saw it besides me.”
The mantel nodded and understood the reason. Slowly he opened the rope that bound the throws before reading them one after another. Chitra Anggini stood beside her and read. Their faces quickly showed seriousness.
On the eve of the peak of the Love Event that will happen in two days
Feasts and other events will take place in such a great way
From the Kotaraja Slum we have news
A group of magic warriors will attack the palace
Infiltrate the palace through the west door
The king will escape through the underground passage to the east
Bring all the equipment
Plus if you can
Prepare your energy and mind
Don't forget to include that map
Mantingan and Chitra Anggini looked at each other for a moment before reading the next sheet.
All the magic we'll knock out
A number of guards we have to kill
We all have bet
Until failure is something that is difficult
Return the next sheet.
Take whatever you want to take
We're not in the way
It means you won't be blocking us either
The king will die
We will replace him
Back Mantingan and Chitra Anggini looked at each other, but this time it was not just an instant. The look was long and deep. Means a lot of things.
“Two more days ...” Chitra Anggini muttered softly, so it was as if he was talking to himself.
The mantang did not answer, only exhaled his breath.
“Do you understand what we're going to face?” Back Chitra Anggini asked after feeling the young man was too calm even after receiving such a crucial news.
“I know,” answer, “maut.”
“One of us will probably die,” continued the woman.
Mantingan was silent for a moment. He knew it could happen, maybe even happen. However, he was ready to die at any time, because it looks like Kembangmas is still demanding proof and sacrifice more before surrendering to be brought to Kenanga. Of course Mantingan never forgot the main purpose of his wandering during this time, and everything he did was intended for Kembangmas to show himself. He was sure with full confidence, Kembangmas still watching him until the last breath. Never to come off.
“True,” reply Coat later. “But no matter what happens, we must continue with the plan. If it can be run together, then it's good. If not, then there is no reason why. The goals we will achieve are far more valuable than the lives of both of us.”
Chitra Anggini perfectly fell silent. The words of the mantang are true. If the pair of Moon Swords were to fall back into the martial well, then the great chaos that drained the lives of the innocent would ensue! And how well, the lives of both of them would seem insignificant at all.
***
PERHELATAN Cinta is still running, although news of attacks on a number of swordsmen in the Thousand Houses of the Palace has been widespread, he said, but it actually pegs the spirit of other pairs of warriors who seek perfection by dying in battle.
That late, there was a dinner party. Not as usual, because in the previous days eating together was only done in the morning. However, the officiant has announced that this dinner will not be a casual dinner.
In the beginning, Mantingan and Chitra Anggini had agreed not to follow all activities in the Love Concert especially that day because it really needs a break. But with the consideration that it will again provoke suspicion from the palace, then the two decided to follow the dinner.
This time, none of the two wore any kind of mask. The face of Chitra Anggini must not be too famous, and although it can be recognized by the palace as one of the members of the Leaf Dancers, there is no danger or threat from the woman. And, didn't Mantingan's face have changed almost completely so he didn't have to worry about any courtiers being able to recognize him as the Hero Man?
The dinner was held on the Grand Courtyard of the Thousand Palace Houses, with a very different feel from the breakfast events.
The dim light of the candle and the torch, then combined with the waves of red magic light in the sky that forms all kinds of beautiful animals and plants. Fragrances are placed at all angles that can be reached, the aroma of rasamala and kambuja flowers are smelled so clearly. Cradled. Soft sounds came from the best song groups in Kotaraja, brought directly by the palace to further cradle the atmosphere.
There is nothing that is not captivated by everything that is presented in that place!
