"How about, Kakang ... ?" asked Ki Selangkit to the Golden Heart Swordsman, as soon as he arrived with the other warriors.

"Come, Adi Selangkit! When we chased after him, suddenly he just vanished around this area!" the Golden Heart.

Hearing the information, Ki Selangkit immediately, circulated a glance around the place. Suddenly his heart jerked in shock when his gaze pounded on a hill that stood upright creepy.

"Needs... lblisss ... !" exclaimed Ki Selangkang with trembling lips. His face immediately turned pale.

"Hill Demon...!" shouted the other warriors were no less shocked.

Some people have long heard of the hill. But only this time they know the shape and location of the famous hill. A hill which is rumored to be the hiding place of the heretics.

"Hm.... If we are determined to patronize the place, it is the same as bringing lives!" the Golden Heart.

"Although the intelligence of the devil is not too high, but black magic and his science that makes him difficult to defeat. Please note that on the hill, there are also his friends‐kawan! So, it will be in vain‐sia all our efforts," continued the swordsman again.

"So..., what should we do?" asked Ki Selangkang confused,

"Yes.., I think we should ask for help to the people of the Milky Way who know the weaknesses of the science of dedemit," replied the Golden Heart anyway.

"Then..., to whom do we ask for help? Whereas the top-class figures were definitely impossible! For they would rather isolate themselves, than interfere in the affairs of the world!" ki Selangkit. From his eyes was a ray of disappointment.

"Wait a minute!" cut the Drunk Swordsman.

"Have you ever heard of a young swordsman who killed the Three Devils of Mount Tandur with his miraculous science?" ask the Drunk Warrior.

"Eh! The three Devils of the Barren Mountain had killed a young swordsman?" the warriors did not believe.

"Yes! Even all three are at once!" add a Drunk Swordsman. Barseri's face was happy.

"Oh, great! It's great!" they shouted more and more surprised.

"What's the story, Adi?" ask the Golden Heart Intrigued.

The drunkard Swordsman then told the news that had spread in the South. And as a wandering swordsman, he had also heard this news.

"It's incredible...!" the warriors were amazed.

"But where should we look?" ask Ki Selangkit expectantly.

"Just make it easy! Every swordsman who is here must spread the news about the violence of the creature named Dedemit Bukit lblis in the West, "proposed Pendekar Drunker.

"Fright!" the Golden Heart Sergah.

"And as a true warrior, when he hears the news, he will surely come to destroy it. How, pal‐friends?" ask the warrior to the others.

"Agreed!!" answer the warriors in unison.

"Then let's go back to the village. The residents must have been waiting with anxious hearts!" yang Ki Selangikit.

Thus, the retinue of the warriors immediately left the place. Meanwhile, in the distance began to sound roosters that indicate the morning will soon come.

It was still early morning when the martial forest leaders led by Pendekar Pembukar Pembuk rushed out of Ganjar Village. They will spread to various directions to spread the news about the fermenting of the devil kidnappers and bloodsuckers of babies nicknamed the Devil's Hill Dedemit!

While the Golden Heart Swordsman and Ki Selangkit remain in Ganjar Village to keep watch, just in case the devil returns to make trouble in the village.

In just a few months, the cruelty and savagery of Dedemit Bukit Devil has been crowded with people talking, both in the village‐desa, in tavern‐kedai drinking or in pasar‐pasar. So did the peasants, merchants, and high officials of the kingdom. They all talked about the news, so it expanded to various layers!

Especially among the soldiers. The warriors who felt responsible to overcome the problem, began to arrive from various directions. Perguruan‐guruan from various streams, sent his main student‐ to investigate the truth of the news that has been widespread.

For them, where the heavens are upheld and the earth trampled, then that is their home.

And not a few of the newcomers who are traders‐traders who take advantage of the opportunity. They came in the hope of making a big profit. Because the place of‐the place they came to was the village‐village closest to the Devil's Hill. And of course the place‐ place will be visited by many people!

The group that went directly to the target, approximately numbering forty people. They were joined from the seven largest universities at that time, and plus a dozen warriors who stood alone.

Their attitude looks handsome and dignified. The weapons carried also vary‐ shape. Most of the warriors were carrying swords, cleaver, and spears. Only a small percentage use axes, sticks, and other weapons.

After a half-day journey, the party arrived at the Devil's Hill Foot. They hurriedly leaped down from the backs of their respective horses‐. Then the warriors rested, because they had traveled quite tiring.

Their horses were released in the vast prairies, which were plentiful around the place. After feeling well rested, the warriors immediately gathered to determine the next step.

A dashing man named Ki Teja Laksana, came forward. He was about fifty years old. Bulu‐feather adorns his cheeks and chin, thus making his face look more dignified. His name is also quite famous among the martial, which always upholds the truth He is nicknamed the Steel Swordsman.

"Friends of‐my best friend of the warriors who uphold the truth!" ki Teja Laksana.

Intentionally his voice was accompanied by his inner exertion so that all present could hear clearly.

"In this deliberation, friends are welcome to issue their respective opinions, so that one decision can be made! Of course the best and approved decision we have together! Well, now, please friends submit opinions in turns," cried the Steel Swordsman ended his speech.

When the Steel Swordsman aka Ki Teja Laksana ended his words, there was a rowdy sound caused by the conversation of the warriors among his fellow friends. Ki Teja Laksana quickly‐ quickly raised both hands up, to relieve the commotion.

A few moments later, the atmosphere became quiet. Ki Teja Laksana repeated his words.

One of the warriors immediately raised his hand upwards as a sign of wanting to make a proposal. Ki Teja Laksana nodded his head towards the swordsman.

"Look, Kakang! What if some of us investigate the state of the hill first? Who knows it's filled with traps that will harm us!" the swordsman's proposal.

"Hm.... A very good suggestion, Adi Kalingga!" said the Steel Swordsman. la seemed quite happy to hear the proposal.

Hearing his proposal was welcomed, the swordsman called Kalingga beamed‐seri. This figure is a mainstay student of the college 'Satkat Sakti'. la known by the nickname Swordsman of the Death Stick. His intellect was only one level below his teacher. Then you can imagine how great the cleverness of the swordsman. Kalingga and his three younger siblings were sent by his teacher to investigate the truth of the shocking news.

Meanwhile, the meeting was continued by several more proposals submitted by other warriors then the warriors who led the deliberation immediately consulted to reach an agreement. Moments later, the Steel Swordsman aka Ki Teja Laksana again appeared before the warriors to announce his decision.

The sun was getting higher when the group of ten people began to climb Mount Iblis. The ten warriors were jumping on the stone‐ stone that protruded in the Hill Body lblis.

Not long after, the ten warriors began to enter the difficult area. Seeing the increasingly difficult terrain, the Steel Swordsman who walked the front immediately stopped his steps.

"What's up, Ki?" asked the tall, thin warrior in a cleavage voice.

Ki Teja Laksana did not immediately answer his colleague's question. Immediately spread the view around him. His face looks a bit tense.

"It feels.., we have to increase alertness even more! I feel like there's a menacing danger!" said Steel Swordsman warns his friend‐kanya.

Hearing the warning from the Steel Swordsman, instantly the faces of the nine swordsmen turned tense! Although not knowing what is feared, but the words of a swordsman like Ki Teja Laksana, it can not be just nonsense.

While Ki Teja Laksana is still keeping an eye on the surroundings. He had heard about the hill that had never been touched by man. And according to the story of his teacher's grandfather, on the hill there are many terrible threats and have taken a lot of casualties. However, until now it was unclear what the danger was. No one knows the form of the threat, because all you hear is a word of mouth. No one can prove it yet.

That is, why Ki Teja Laksana felt hesitant‐ to continue his steps. Steel Swordsman or Ki Teja Laksana already has a lot of experience in the martial world. His instincts were well trained. And now, his instincts say that around this place a lot of dangers are eyeing.

But the Steel Swordsman did not want to let his comrade‐his friend be haunted by a terrifying shadow. The fighter then invited his nine friends to continue their steps, without leaving vigilance.

With a heart full of tension, the ten warriors continued their steps. Ki Teja Laksana who walked the front step, while occasionally paying attention to the surrounding situation.

A short time later, they arrived at a rather open place. In front of them lay a field covered with two spear-tall weeds growing on the right left of the path.

Steel Swordsman or Ki Teja As suddenly‐, stop his steps. The other nine warriors immediately followed him. For a moment, the dashing old man was speechless observing the expanse of weeds that looked a bit strange. The shape of the field overgrown with weeds seems like it was deliberately made in such a way, so that if carefully considered as if‐ seems to form the position of the eight winds. Of course this can confuse the person who goes into it.

"We try to walk one by one. The distance between us must not be more than three spears, so as not to lose our way out!" ki Teja Laksana's.
