Darsono and his dozen companions finally walked away from Arya’s room. After the members of the Red Eagle Sect descended the stairs, Arya followed them.

The late night and the closed eateries gave Darsono and his friends more freedom to act. They had no hesitation in beating up—or even killing—the young man.

Other guests had heard the commotion outside Arya’s room, but none cared enough to get involved.

Once outside, the dozen Red Eagle Sect members stood facing the inn's entrance, standing arrogantly as they awaited Arya’s arrival.

"So, you're brave after all, young man. I didn’t expect you to come out and face us," said one of Darsono’s tall and lanky friends.

"What should I be afraid of from pests like you? Honestly, you’re not even worth my time. But since your friend keeps chasing after my beloved with his dirty tricks, I have no choice but to teach him a lesson—so he learns to respect women!" Arya retorted with a mocking smile directed at Darsono.

    Fear and shame mixed into one, preventing Darsono from thinking clearly. The tall, burly man then stood up and drew his sword."Hahaha... Even if you use your sword to fight me, it will mean nothing! Your life will still be taken in an instant!" Ratnasari sneered. Her fingers tensed, forming claws ready to tear Darsono's body apart.Ignoring Ratnasari's taunts, Darsono lunged forward and swung his sword with all his might. His focus was no longer on satisfying his lust but on killing the beautiful girl. He had been utterly humiliated in front of the inn's guests.A faint sound of air splitting accompanied the swing of his large sword."Die!" he shouted loudly.Darsono was confident that his attack could not possibly be blocked by the unarmed Ratnasari.And he was right. Ratnasari could not possibly stop the fast-approaching sword with her bare hands, but she easily dodged the attack by leaping to the side.Then, she dashed forward, aiming her claws at Darsono’s unprotected neck.Howev

  • The Sword Of The Fire Dragon   Second Round Tournament

    Without them realizing it, the public's enthusiasm for watching the tournament grew after hearing rumors that a female participant had a beautiful face and an alluring figure. This was proven by the large crowd of spectators cramming around Stage Four, where Ratnasari was competing.Stage Three was no less crowded, but most of the audience consisted of young women in their adolescence. They had gathered after hearing whispers about a participant who was exceptionally handsome. To verify the rumors, they willingly squeezed in among the other spectators.Estimating that they still had about two hours before the tournament resumed, Arya and Aji visited their favorite small food stall to fill their stomachs. The elderly woman who owned the stall beamed with joy upon seeing them arrive, her smile widening as if she had just received an unexpected windfall.Without asking, she hurriedly prepared their favorite meals.It didn’t take long for her experienced hands to finish cooking for her tw

  • The Sword Of The Fire Dragon   Arya vs Sutawijaya

    Arya smirked. "What's the point of taking a stance if you're going to lose anyway?""Bastard! Don't blame me if you die today. I've had enough of your insults, boy!" Sutawijaya shouted before lunging forward with an opening attack.A punch, reinforced with inner strength, shot forward at great speed, aiming straight for Arya's face. The middle-aged man was confident that the young man would not be able to dodge his swift and powerful attack.But his certainty was gravely mistaken. The handsome young man did not dodge at all. Instead, he met his opponent's attack head-on, choosing to clash fists.Sutawijaya was shocked and could not believe the boldness of his opponent. But his disbelief was soon replaced by another realization—his body was pushed back several steps due to the impact of their clash."Impossible!" he gasped. He couldn't hide the astonishment on his face when he saw that the young man hadn't even budged.The spectators below were equally shocked, including King Wijaya Ku

  • The Sword Of The Fire Dragon   King Wijaya Kusuma's Invitation

    "It's useless for you to use that rusty staff, Uncle! You'd better surrender before embarrassing yourself even more," Arya offered."Surrendering is not in my mind, you bastard! You will feel how hard my iron staff is!" Sutajaya retorted.Arya let out a heavy sigh. It seemed he really had to use force to defeat the man.Before Sutajaya could move forward to launch an attack, Arya shot forward with incredible speed, aiming a punch at his opponent's chest. Although Sutajaya's iron staff was still spinning rapidly, Arya's punch managed to break through and sent the middle-aged man flying off the stage.For a moment, the audience fell into a stunned silence. They were still in shock at what had just happened. To ordinary spectators or warriors with low-level martial skills, Arya's movement was completely invisible. All they saw was Sutajaya suddenly being thrown off the stage, while Arya stood exactly where Sutajaya had been standing.King Wijaya Kusuma was equally astonished. However, wh

  • The Sword Of The Fire Dragon   Ratnasari vs Gondosuli

    On the fourth stage, Ratnasari was battling against a representative from the Sacred Machet sect—a stocky, slightly short warrior named Gondosuli. A machete hung at his waist.The man grinned, his eyes lingering on Ratnasari’s curves, which were undeniably captivating to the male spectators. As a normal man, Gondosuli was naturally drawn to the beautiful woman with an alluring figure standing before him.The host’s voice echoed with enthusiasm when he called Ratnasari’s name, a stark contrast to his previous announcements. His excitement doubled, knowing that the only female participant in this tournament was an exceptionally beautiful young woman.Whistles from the audience and other participants rang out in unison, never ceasing. Most of them were practically drooling over the stunning girl. Their Adam’s apples bobbed as they imagined her voluptuous body wrapped in slightly tight clothing.Gondosuli licked his lips from end to end, openly displaying his desire for her. "We don’t act

    Ratnasari jumped lightly off the stage, accompanied by applause and cheers from the audience. She then walked toward Arya, who smiled as he admired her beauty."Good thing your opponent didn’t notice your weakness," Arya whispered in Ratnasari’s ear. "It seems like you’ve forgotten what I once taught you."The beautiful girl furrowed her brows. "If I may ask, where is my weakness?""I'll show you the gaps in your defense later at the inn when we have time," Arya replied. The handsome young man then approached the announcer, who had yet to step onto the stage to continue his duties."Uncle, do I have another match scheduled for today?"The announcer unrolled the dried parchment he held. After a moment, he shook his head. "Your match is scheduled for tomorrow, young warrior. Today, there are still a few other matches before the third round begins.""Alright then. Thank you for the information, sir." Arya gave a slight smile before leaving the announcer."My match is tomorrow. For now, l

  • The Sword Of The Fire Dragon   The Confrontation at the Palace Gate

    Upon reaching the palace gate, Arya and Ratnasari were halted by the guards on duty."Halt, you two! What business do you have at the palace?" one of the guards asked, his expression fierce and unwelcoming."We have been invited by His Majesty the King to meet him this evening, Sir," Arya replied."You received an invitation from His Majesty?" The guard seemed doubtful of Arya's words."Hahaha... your delusions are impressive. How could the King possibly invite someone like you? Even if His Majesty had invited you, we would have been informed beforehand," another guard scoffed, his tone full of disdain.Arya and Ratnasari exchanged glances, confused by the situation. If they had truly been invited by King Wanajaya, someone should have been sent to escort them inside.Doubt began creeping into Arya’s mind. He started suspecting that the soldier who had given him the invitation had only intended to humiliate him."You again!" a sudden, sharp voice rang out from behind.Arya and Ratnasar

  • The Sword Of The Fire Dragon   The Relief of Prince Purbaya

    Rega walked quickly to catch up with Arya and Ratnasari. But after only ten steps, he stopped and turned back. "Wait for your heavy punishment, all of you!"The head soldier ran swiftly, chasing after Arya and Ratnasari, who had already disappeared from sight."You have to bear that punishment alone, Pranata! We refuse to suffer the consequences of your arrogance!" said one of the soldiers."That's right, we were only following procedure when questioning guests. But you suddenly appeared and insulted that young man," added another soldier.Pranata was speechless. He could only imagine the punishment that awaited him.Rega quickened his pace when he saw Arya and Ratnasari walking ahead. He ignored the curious stares of a few townspeople as he passed."Warrior, please stop!" Rega shouted.Arya turned around and halted his steps when he saw the soldier who had invited him the day before.Panting, Rega stopped right in front of Arya and Ratnasari. He steadied his breath before speaking, "

    Afterward, Rengga poured horse blood around the five corpses to make the scene appear more dramatic.Once the plan was completed, Rengga instructed the soldiers to prepare and roast the slaughtered horse's meat for their meal that day."Now, we just have to wait for their arrival," he said, then walked toward a large tree for shade.Seconds turned into minutes, and minutes into hours. The long wait gave the soldiers time to rest and let their horses graze.However, they remained vigilant. Some soldiers stood watch atop the hill, keeping a close eye on the surroundings.As night fell, a chill crept over the land, cooling the earth that had been bathed in sunlight all day. Rengga and Ratnasari climbed the hill to relieve the guards on duty. Their skills, far superior to those of the regular soldiers, made the switch necessary. Moreover, both Rengga and Ratnasari possessed the ability to see in the dark. The bright moonlight that illuminated

  • The Next Plan

    "Were you looking for me?" Rengga chuckled softly behind the six men who were about to attack him.Cold sweat instantly seeped from the pores of the six men. They were shocked and never expected that the person they intended to kill possessed such exceptional martial skills."When did he pass us?" one of them asked in confusion."I don’t know either," replied his companion beside him, his knees trembling as fear started creeping into his mind."I only need one of you alive!" Rengga said softly, but his voice carried an overwhelming intimidation.Before the six men could even turn around, Rengga’s fists had already landed on their bodies. Five of them collapsed onto the ground, lifeless, as their only breath was forcefully taken away.Rengga had deliberately spared one of them to extract information. But then he remembered that the large-built man who had attacked him first was still breathing.His gaze shifted,

  • Rengga's Action

    A few moments earlier, Ratnasari and Rengga had already begun their activities before the sun rose to illuminate the earth. The two of them scouted the area, looking for the safest and most strategic spot to launch an attack.In a situation like this, Rengga was forced to think hard. Before him stretched a vast open field, which at first seemed advantageous. However, the lack of cover for his troops to release their arrows safely made him rack his brain even more.After discussing with Ratnasari and weighing various considerations, they finally decided to move farther from their initial position.After an hour on horseback, they discovered a small hill that was not too high. From its peak, they had a clear field of vision, and it would provide an excellent vantage point for the archers when launching their attack."This is the most strategic place to attack them, Ratna. But the problem is, we don’t know if they will pass through here or

  • Spreading Teror

    After sending off the Archer troops at the city gate, Prime Minister Bayu Aji hurried back to the palace.The newly appointed Young Commander, who had been chosen without having to complete the tournament, walked alongside him toward the soldiers' barracks, still within the palace complex."Birendra, order all soldiers to go out and help finish setting up the traps!" commanded Prime Minister Bayu Aji to Young Commander Birendra.The thirty-seven-year-old Young Commander pressed his palms together in front of his face and nodded slightly."As you command, Prime Minister, I will carry it out," he replied.Prime Minister Bayu Aji gazed at the thousand soldiers diligently training on the vast open field. They were practicing encirclement and breakthrough strategies, the hallmark tactics of King Girindrawardhana.Iron shields, as wide and tall as a man's body, were firmly gripped in the soldiers’ hands. In their right hands, they held

  • Departure of the Archer Troops

    Rengga once again examined the dry parchment spread across the table, stroking his beard, which was beginning to grow fine hairs."We don't need too many, Prime Minister. Three to five hundred archers at each point will suffice. We rain arrows on them, then retreat back to the capital city.""I understand, Elder." Prime Minister Bayu Aji no longer had any doubts about the intelligence of the man who would replace Arya as the Grand Commander. Even he himself had not considered such a strategy as Rengga had proposed.The discussion continued. This time, Rengga spoke little, as he felt the ambush plan they had devised was already in line with his own thoughts.The conversation lasted for half a day. Suddenly, a scout rushed into the hall, slightly out of breath. Dressed entirely in black with a yellow cloth tied around his arm, the scout knelt before King Wijaya Kusuma, paying his respects."What report do you bring?" asked King Wijaya Kusuma."Forgive me, Your Majesty. The enemy troops

  • Brief Plan

    "We should talk at the palace, Brother. There is much to explain about the situation that is about to unfold," she said."That's true, Kisanak. It’s best we discuss this at the palace. Your arrival may bring fresh air to this kingdom." Prime Minister Bayu Aji responded to Ratnasari’s statement.Rengga observed the numerous soldiers working hard to dig the ground. His brow furrowed as his instincts told him that something significant was about to happen."Is there going to be a war?" he asked with a hint of emphasis.Prime Minister Bayu Aji gave a slight smile. His mind recalled Arya’s words, which stated that Rengga possessed intelligence above the average, and now he had proof of it."Come, Elder... let’s discuss this at the palace; it will be more comfortable," Prime Minister Bayu Aji invited.Rengga smiled and nodded.Before the three of them left for the palace, Prime Minister Bayu Aji assigned the supervision of the work to a senior soldier.The initial impression Rengga displaye

  • The Arrival of Rengga

    "Don't ask too many questions...! Now you must train the martial arts you have just acquired, Arya. Learn to control your strength so that when you use the Dragon God's Wrath on Earth, it does not cause catastrophic destruction," ordered Hydra.Arya could only nod and then began to focus his mind. Slowly, a reddish aura of energy began to seep out of his body.As Arya resumed his training, the long journey of the Cakrabuana Kingdom's army had entered its sixth day. It would not be long before they reached the vast mountain range that marked the border between the Cakrabuana Kingdom and the Jaya Buana Kingdom.While awaiting the arrival of the Shadow Devil Sect members, King Dharma Kusuma ordered his soldiers to set up tents at the foot of the mountain for rest.Upon their arrival at the mountain's base, a dozen soldiers quickly erected a massive tent specifically for King Dharma Kusuma and Prince Purbaya. This tent was set up first, surrounded by

    "We will answer, but after that, you must answer my question. How about that?" said Hydra."Alright." Arya nodded."First, you have mastered the Dragon King's Eye. You will no longer struggle against warriors who are faster than you. However, for now, there is a time limit on its usage because you have yet to fully refine the Fire Dragon energy within your body," Hydra explained."As for the beam of light that shot from your eyes, we are also curious as to how you were able to wield it," Wira Atmaja added.Arya raised an eyebrow in confusion. "What exactly have I mastered?""The beam of light from your eyes is a power that belongs only to the Dragon King. We call it the Dragon God's Wrathful Gaze," Hydra answered.Arya could only remain silent, furrowing his brow. No wonder the impact was so terrifying, he thought."But there's something you must know, Arya... If you are not facing a truly formidable enemy, never use it.

  • The Radiance of the Dragon God's Wrath

    Hydra shifted his gaze and looked around. His eyebrows knitted together as he noticed the greenish aura of natural elements in the area rapidly moving and entering Arya’s body."How is that possible? What is Arya doing?" he muttered, though his voice was still audible to Wira Atmaja.The dragon, who had taken the form of an old man, was just as shocked. "That young man is absorbing the natural elements here? How can that be?"The two of them exchanged disbelieving glances."He’s actually using the natural elements to suppress the energy explosion that could destroy his body," Wira Atmaja said, shaking his head slightly."I also didn't expect Arya to do that. He must have realized that his body's endurance is limited. That’s why he’s trying to prevent the fusion of those two energies within him from exploding," Hydra responded.He then recalled his past battle with Arya in the forest. "Arya has always been quick-thinking
