The Rising Of The Mage

Chapter 29

Two days had passed since they departed from the kingdom of Kutai. Their needs are met because Yudi and Goruru have prepared them.

The tares spread wide in front of the eyes, about one meter and two centi high. The gentle breeze made the thatch leaves sway. Everyone was looking for where the Yupa inscription was.

"This map leads here, but I have not seen any signs of the Yupa Inscription. Have you seen him?" Said Yudi while paying attention to the thatch pasdang believed to be where the inscription was located.

Goruru also responded, "i haven't seen it either, are you sure the Inscription is here Yudi?" ask the Goblin.

Yudi again noticed the map given by Luin, the X sign that became the place where the inscription was. Written right in the field of weeds. However he did not know exactly, the location of the inscription was located.

"According to this map, we're close. But I don't know where it is?" Yudi said annoyed.

"Here let me see it?" Pinta Rawu while hand-picking asked for the map from Yudi.

"Here, I've been dizzy looking for him!" yudi handed the map to Rawu.

After receiving the map that Yudi gave, Rawu's eyes began to explore the map. Several times he saw some marks on the map and matched them with the disco. Once satisfied he said to Yudi.

"You are leading us down the wrong path, the X is among the 4 trees that surround it. Whereas here there is not a single poun of trees that grow to form a square." Rawu.

Hearing Rawu's explanation, Yudi's eyes began to pay closer attention to his surroundings. No trees were found around them.

"I think you're right!" Yudi said while grinning.

"Huh, it's only fitting that we didn't find any leads? Then where do you think the perasasti is Mr Rawu?" ask Goruru.

Rawu held onto his chin, his eyes focused on the marks on the map. To show where they are at the moment, observe and match the circumstances. Finally Rawu can conclude.

"Where are we here!" His finger pointed at a point where there was a large circle on his left. "If we want to find the phrase then, we must go to the right side until we meet the mark of a great tree first." Rawu explained.

"When we have found the mark of the first tree, our goal is near. The scale on this map is one to a thousand steps. In other words our distance to the first great tree is five thousand steps, then from the first tree to the inscription it's two thousand steps."

Rawu sighed as he explained it, giving an explanation was the thing he disliked the most. But he was also curious about the one inside the Inscription, so he still did it even though it was not liked.

"Then our distance to the Stele is seven thousand steps away, if we are lucky enough we will arrive before dark and camp. But if there's something unexpected then it could be longer." He ended his explanation about the location and distance they had to travel.

"You're even taking things into account, it's appropriate that Merchant Virgo trusts you?" Praise Yudi.

"What did Master Yudi say! You're so good at typography that you can figure out where we are right now, and then take into account our distance from the inscription. I'm amazed by you, Mr. Rawu!" praise Goruru

"Well whatever, I'm grateful for the compliment. But the facts say another, more important let's get moving. So that we don't get to dark." Take Rawu.

Yudi and Goruru nodded, omens agreeing with Rawu's proposal. The group again moved towards the direction designated by the former bandit leader.

"What's wrong with you, Goruru?" ask Yudi.

Maybe it's just my feelings, her inner self. Then he dismissed what Yudi asked. "Ah nothing, I had an insect. I stopped to pry it!"

The alibi that Goruru did was successful, it was because Yudi replied. "Oh, I thought what's up? Next time do not stop suddenly, just make curious" said Yudi.

"Yes next time, I won't repeat it. You're a curious person anyway. Insects in this place are very many, really not friends." Goruru.

But not a welcome like 'ah it's true' or 'here is indeed a lot of insects' from people around. It was precisely the strange look he had gotten from them.

'Damn them completely insensitive, ' Goruru's inner being was cobbled. Then he raised his aura and said once again with a suppressed intonation as his eyes looked at the other five Goblins.

"There's a lot of bugs, guys!" Her speech.

The Goblins who felt a killing aura emanating from Goruru's body, immediately they responded with various reasons.

"There are a lot of insects here, hup! I got another one" said one Ghoblin, pretending to pat one insect.

"Yes, I was bitten too. But I try not to show it," said another Goblin with cool pretentious behavior.

And their reasons continue to grow to avoid anger from Goruru, because of their insensitivity. Yudi who heard the reason finally forgot what she suspected before.

While Rawu clearly understood what Goruru felt. Several times exploring the region like this, making his instincts sharp. So he's got four people at the back.

"Make sure to keep an eye on my back, lest anyone be missed. You understand!"

"Ready!" The four understood with Rawu's words, the leader had given a lesson about such words that contain hidden meanings. So when Rawu said it, they were on full alert. Especially the back, because their Leader believes they are being stalked from behind.

After a step by step passed, they saw the silhouette of a large tree that became one of the trees surrounding the Yupa inscription of the Kutai royal heritage.

"You're right, Rawu! The tree is there! Come on, everybody, we'll be here any minute. When we get there we'll rest." Yudi said while pointing at the tree happily.

"You're right, my leg's about to break. This journey is tiring, hopefully the results are satisfactory," said Goruru while wiping sweat on the forehead.

"I was also curious about what was carved there? Then what prophecy is written there!" Rawu said guessing.

"The prophecy says that you're going to die here!" Said someone, then a figure appeared from behind them.

All of them faced back and found an army of twenty people with an average level of 18, preparing to prevent them from knowing the contents of the Yupa inscription of the Kutai kingdom relics.
