A Wandering Ronin Hand Speed
Terry and Barim looked at each other with sharp eyes. While their right hand is each holding tightly taxane. When all was quiet, Terry shouted as he ran and slashed his ax up and down. Barim dodged to the left then he butted Terry in the stomach pushing him and ramming him into the door. Terry's back hit the door. But because Barim kept pushing, the door burst and they both fell and rolled in the snow."They really fought," said Dema."What should we do? It's a terrible sight,” Boris looked panicked."Looks like we'll have to end it violently," Terry said as he rose to his feet."To teach a thief, you have to be a little violent," replied Barim as he ran and slashed his ax from left to right.Terry dodged by jumping backward then he countered with his ax attack from top to bottom. Barim restrained with the handle of his ax so that the handles of the two of them were now colliding with each other."You're accusing us!" Terry shouted."I accuse with evidence," said Barim.“But Boris has
A Wandering Ronin Teacher and Student
It was already evening. The sun was almost slipping on the eastern horizon. The snow that fell and was carried by the wind had now lessened. People who have been active since the morning are ready to return to their respective homes. At the tavern, Yuta was still trying hard to practice the trick to hide the two balls. Even his hands were sore now."Alright, enough for today," said Erald as he stretched his spine."This is a simple trick. But it's very difficult," said Yuta.“Everything if we understand the basic technique, it will be easier when we study it further. Even without a teacher.”"So how much should I pay you?"Erald looked at Yuta. Then he laughed."Hahaha, don't worry about that. Seeing your determination to study alone is worth it for me,” Erald smiled broadly."What do you mean?"“I will teach you all the magic tricks I can. And when you can do it, you'll make your own magic tricks."Yuta fell silent hearing Erald's answer.“B...but....”"Don't think about it," Erald c
A Wandering Ronin Stick and Coin
Erald and Yuta looked at each other. Since Erald was sitting on his folding platform and Yuta was sitting cross-legged on the snow, Yuta looked up a little to see Erald. Before long, Erald smiled broadly.“I'll teach you another magic trick,” said Erald."What trick?" asked Yuta.“There are some easy tricks you can learn as a beginner.”Yuta nodded.Erald smiled then he took a coin and showed it to Yuta."You know what this is?" asked Erald.Yuta replied, “Coins.”“I will remove this coin. Watch my hands,” Erald rolled up the sleeves of his coat and service to below his elbows."I'll pay attention," Yuta nodded.Erald placed the coin in the palm of his left hand then closed it tightly. Rubbing the back of the left hand with the right. When his right hand snapped his fingers, his left fist opened and the coin was gone."Where's the coin?" Yuta's eyes glanced at Erald's hands.“Pay attention to this,” Erald raised the index finger of his right hand.Erald's right hand gestured as if he
A Wandering Ronin Stick vs Ax
After several times Yuta tried the coin trick, his hands felt sore. He even waved his hand because it was sore. Erald laughed seeing Yuta whose hands were sore. Because he remembered when he first learned magic. He also felt what Yuta felt at that time."Relax, I felt the same way when I first learned magic," Erald smiled broadly."It seems everyone will feel the same way when they do something for the first time," said Yuta, clenching his fists."You are right."“This is a lot like when I first learned how to cut chunks of wood with my father's ax. The ax was very heavy. To the point that my palms hurt and my hands also feel the same way.”"And after getting used to it?""It doesn't feel at all.""Then you try again."Yuta nodded then he tried to perform the trick again. This time the coin did not fall. But Yuta's hand movements were still slow and the movement of the coins was still visible when Erald carefully watched Yuta's movements.“If you stand as a spectator, the coins still
A Wandering Ronin The Ruler
The harder he tried to learn coin tricks, Yuta have feel tired. For over an hour he stood in front of the mirror cloth and practiced the coin trick until his hands got used to it. Erald just sat on his folding platform while watching Yuta. Now and then he corrected Yuta's mistakes. But this time, Erald felt that Yuta had mastered the coin trick.“Okay, you can perform the trick in front of me,” said Erald.Yuta stopped and turned to face Erald. His sharp eyes stared at Erald then he closed his eyes and took a deep breath and let it out through his mouth. After opening his eyes, Erald immediately performed the coin trick. He held the coin in his right hand then he put the coin in his left palm then he held the coin. His right hand rubbed the back of his left hand and after that, he snapped the fingers of his right hand and opened his right hand. The coin is gone.“Good,” Erald nodded.Then Yuta made a motion rubbing his palms. And when his left palm closes, he snaps the fingers of his
A Wandering Ronin A Shock
When the heating stove's fire started to shrink, Erna immediately threw another lump of wood. The fire slowly grew and the room temperature grew warmer. It wasn't long before Erni sat beside him. They were silent while watching the snow frogs hunting the insects that Erna had given them. Now and then the frogs were silent staring at something empty.“Hey, sometimes, I think I'd better be a star. Especially frogs," said Erna breaking the silence."Why do you think so?" asked Erni who was surprised by her twin sister's statement.“Whatever fate befell them, they always accept it. Look at these frogs. Brought by our father in a frozen state. Separated from family and friends. They continue to live. Even fate feeds him through my hands.” Erna opened her right hand wide."Then, think of yourself as an animal," Erni patted Erna's shoulder."Can not. Humans have passions. Sometimes they accept fate. Sometimes, they do not accept the fate that befell them. Humans are complex creatures of thou
A Wandering Ronin Before That Will Happens
The townspeople of Sarmith were taken aback by the slight shaking that occurred. They stopped their respective activities and partly looked towards the southwest. Like something caught their attention. It didn't take long for the small shaking to stop. Of course, some people will think that the shock was a small earthquake. The people in the market near the park square were confused by what had happened."Was that an earthquake?" asked the candy seller."I think so. A few minutes before, the animals were behaving strangely,” replied one of the candy shop customers wearing a hat."I have a bad feeling about this," said another customer who was a man with neat hair."Throw away your thoughts. Sarmith is a peaceful city and there has never been a conflict, let alone a natural disaster,” said the candy seller.The shock was no longer felt. But the behavior of the animals remained strange. Even the sheep breeders were confused by what happened to their sheep. The farmer with the long beard
A Wandering Ronin Storm
Lamin shouted louder as his hands were stretched out and accompanied by the shaking of the earthquake. Barim and Terry were still trying not to get sucked in. But their efforts failed. They were sucked and strangled by Lamin's hand. His right hand strangled Barim's neck, and his left hand strangled Terry's neck. Lamin turned to the two of them in turn and slammed them onto the ground very hard.Instantly Barim and Terry spit blood from their mouths. Lamin then laughed in satisfaction. He then bent down while his hands were like hugging. Then he stretched out his arms with all his might and suddenly there was a kind of shaking again this time bigger. The thunder roared and the snow fell even more.“Master Lamin, you managed to obtain the power of the ancestral tree and nature,” Labib said proudly.Erim couldn't do anything about it. He was just holding on to the tree because the wind that carried the snow was blowing very hard."What happened?" asked Boris."Looks like Lamin is absorbi

Before Practice
Shukar is still asleep but Ran is awake and ready. He even cleaned his body by taking a bath. Although this is only a dorm room for candidates or young police officers who want to learn self-defense, the facilities are quite complete. So Ran can clean herself up before he goes back to training."I need to quickly master the shock attack power technique," Ran muttered to himself.Not long after, there was a knock on the door. After Ran opened, it was apparently an old man with a tray filled with food and drinks for breakfast."I guess Herlos," said Ran as he looked at the old man."Sorry, I was assigned by Herlos to deliver this breakfast," said the old man."Thank you," Ran accepted the breakfast.The old man then said goodbye and left. Ran brought the breakfast and put it on the small table near the bench. The smell of porridge sprinkled with pickles and sliced fruit makes it difficult to move the nose. He even raised his head when he was prone on the bed."What's this sweet smell?"

"I have to admit your reasons are quite reasonable," said Gero.Goto laughed then he poured the ginger drink into his cup and Gero's."Let's have another drink," said Goto as he lifted the cup and took a sip.Gero also took his cup and took a sip."I still want to surpass Ran ," said Gero after taking a sip of the ginger drink."That's up to you. It's your life choice. Whatever the outcome, the risk will be borne by you," replied Goto .Gero just smiled then he got up and walked out by opening the door without permission. On the way home, Gero was intercepted by a man wearing a black hooded cape that covered his entire body. The man's face could not be seen because of the dark conditions of the night. Because he was a royal samurai, when there was a threat Gero immediately prepared to draw his sword. But the black hooded man raised his hands."Calm. I won't attack you," said the black hooded man."Who are you? Are you an intruder?” asked Gero whose right hand was already holding the h

Inauguration
Gero rushed to Goto when he heard that Ran had been promoted to the King's bodyguard. A very prestigious position and full of pride. Whoever gets this position, will not be underestimated again. Goto was not surprised in the slightest by Gero's arrival. He had already predicted that Gero would meet him."Master, why does Ran always stand out?" asked Gero.Goto who was making a clay bowl didn't answer. He put the bowls on a tray neatly then he put them in the furnace. After that he looked at Gero with a smile."Don't you stand out too?" Goto asked back."What do you mean?" Gero was confused.“Just think about it, ever since you became an eternal rival with Ran, you always stood out among your other friends. You have passed Kaju and Taka too. After graduating they both just became farmers. While you are already a royal samurai.”"But still I can't surpass Ran.""You're so focused on going beyond one person that you forget you've surpassed many."Gero then fell silent. Goto smiled broadl

The four-wheeled wagon that Gema was riding in continued to slide down the hillside. He had screamed when the wagon hit the rocks causing him to almost let go of his hand that was holding on to the side of the cart. The wagon grew louder and louder that Gema had to squint his eyes as the wind hit his face.“When do I get to the bottom?!” shouted Gema as he continued to hold on.Another ten meters or so to the bottom, Gema sighed as he shifted from descending to gently sloping. The wagon was still sliding twenty meters on the sand until Echo pulled the brake lever and the wagon came to a stop.With trembling legs Echo got off the wagon and plopped down on the sandbag."I will never again want to go down hill in a wagon!" he said, gasping for air.After his breathing returned to normal, Gema stood up and cleaned his clothes from the sand and walked towards the attack point in the northwest of Ramil city . The journey took more than an hour until the sun had turned orange and the sky was

Shock Power
In the late afternoon, Gema arrived at the attack point southwest of the city of Ramil, Gema arrived and immediately coordinated with the foreman at that place. The progress of the development process in this place is also still ongoing. It was on top of a sand dune nearly five hundred meters high. At the top there is a sloping land overgrown with various types of desert trees. Like; dates, cacti, and also spinifex grass.Echo had a bit of trouble when he had to climb this hill. The reason is, the hill which is often called Hara hill is higher than Rama hill where his family is hiding."It's better if this evidence turns into a mountain because this is the highest plateau around the Ramil city area," Gema grumbled as he continued to climb this hill.In the middle of the trip, the sandals he was wearing almost broke due to slipping. But thankfully nothing happened to his sandals. Arriving at the top, just like in the previous two attack points, the faction members were busy building a

The Flow
Having finished coordinating the attack point in the east, Gema rushed back to Bona's hideout to report. Bona smiled when he heard the report from Echo that everything went smoothly without any disturbance."Good. Everything went according to plan,” Bona nodded."But, there is one thing that bothers me," said Gema."Is there something you want to say?" ask Bona"Not words. It's just a question," said Gema."Then what is it?"“At the northwestern and northern attack points, there is always an empty space formed in a circle. Every time I ask the foreman in each of these places, they also don't know. What exactly is that? What are you going to put in that place?” Echo asked at length.Bona smiled at the question from Gema. He then chuckled because he knew that Echo would ask such a question."I knew you would ask that," said Bona."Then what is your answer?""You'll find out for yourself when our covert operation begins. Well, even though it can't be called a secret because I'm sure the

Conversation
Dessert arrived. Shukar felt full since he finished the main meal. Although he was no longer able to eat, but seeing the devil's fresh fruits in him seemed to tell him to be greedy and eat the dessert as he pleased. Shukar tried to eat two red grape seeds and his stomach felt like it was going to explode."I can't take it anymore," Shukar muttered to himself as he leaned back against the back of the chair.Meanwhile Watib continued the conversation. He was intrigued by Ran's suggestion about tightening security at night."As I said before, I agree with Ran's suggestion," Watib said while chewing an apple."Starting tonight, I will tighten security in every corner of the city," said Qarni.“Soon the alert level will become alert one. And don't look flashy so that people remain calm," Watib told Qarni."Was the public informed about this?" Qarni asked.Watib replied, "Don't. Any information regarding this, do not let it leak in the community. We must not make people panic. Our successfu

The Ace
Before sunrise, Qarni had come knocking on the hotel door. Fresa , who had just finished changing, rushed to open the door and ushered in Qarni . Ran was already ready with a brown robe and a katana tucked into his left waist under the cloak."Are you guys ready?" Qarni asked ."Of course we are ready. Only one person is still asleep,” Fresa pointed at Shukar who was still sleeping supine on the bed."How many will come along?" Ran said as he straightened his brown robe.“Looks like it's just the three of us. After I conferred with the Mayor last night, we reached an agreement not to bring too many people so as not to attract the attention of the enemy," replied Qarni .Suddenly Shukar woke up and got up from his bed. Staggering and half-closed eyes, he walked to the bathroom and opened the door. Upon entering, Shukar closes the door and it is heard that he is starting to take a bath and wash himself."I'm going to be the four of them there!" Shukar shouted from inside the bathroom.I

The Nostalgic Night
It was past midnight. But Ran stays awake. He was having a conversation with Fresa. Tells all what he has been through when he first separated. Fresa was impressed. Especially when Ran fought against Berna and Gordon. It was as if he couldn't believe that the person in front of him was the most powerful human he had ever met."You are indeed strong," said Fresa."Not. There are still many who are stronger than me. The proof is Zero. He can beat me easily," said Ran.“You mean the one who fought with you and Ran in the abandoned territory in the eastern part of Rami city?”Ran nodded then said, “Tomorrow when we go there, you will see how hard it is for me to fight Zero.”"If I assume you are strong and you were defeated by Zero, then Zero is really strong," Fresa shook his head."Hey, can we sleep in peace?" said Shukar who was curled up under the blanket and on the soft mattress.“Sorry to disturb your sleep,” Frea pressed his hands together.Shukar immediately covered his entire bod
