2025-01-08 11:28:04Arya swallowed hard. He didn’t know what he would do if the great dragon attacked again. As much as possible, he would hold his ground while recalling and practicing all the moves he had memorized.
Before he could think further, the great dragon suddenly spewed flames in his direction. Instinctively, Arya leaped sideways as best as he could, though a bit late. Part of his clothing caught fire, but strangely, he didn’t feel any heat at all. The great dragon smirked slightly, impressed by the progress shown by the handsome young man. It understood that the natural elements of the dragon’s realm absorbed by Arya reacted quickly, providing the protection he needed from the flames. The dragon suddenly ceased its attack, its gaze fixed on Arya, who was ready to defend himself. “Come here, young man! I won’t attack you again. There’s something I want to discuss with you.” Arya frowned. He still couldn’t trust that the dragon wouldn’t attack again. From the seriousness of the earlier attack, he knew it wasn’t just for show. “How can I trust you when you attacked me so seriously earlier?” Arya retorted, a corner of his lips curling upward. “I wasn’t serious in attacking you, young man. If I had been, you would at least be gravely injured by now.” “That wasn’t serious? Have you lost your mind?” Arya grumbled in frustration. “Don’t take it to heart, young man. Even my earlier attack wasn’t a quarter of my full strength.” The dragon chuckled, its massive body shaking. Arya furrowed his brows. His logic couldn’t comprehend the immense power of the dragon before him. He couldn’t imagine his fate if it attacked with its full strength. “Do you promise not to attack me? What’s the guarantee?” The dragon paused to think before replying. “Because the natural elements of my realm are within your body, you are now considered part of the great dragon clan. Based on that, I will accompany you wherever you go.” Arya was taken aback. He couldn’t believe what he was hearing. To him, the dragon’s words sounded like a joke. “How would that even work? If you follow me, will you just float above me all the time?” The handsome young man began to believe slightly and stepped closer to the dragon. “Why are you so foolish, young man? If I revealed my form, everyone would surely flee in fear.” The dragon snorted in annoyance. “Then how?” Arya asked curiously. “Didn’t you see me enter the sword last night?” “How would you follow me if you stayed in the sword?” “Why are you so dense? The sword is yours!” The dragon’s voice rose slightly. Arya scratched his head. He then took out the sword Sarwana had given him, which was strapped to his back. He stared at it for a long time without blinking. “Why would I feel attached to an ordinary sword like this? Perhaps you don’t know, but the sword where I reside is the strongest heirloom sword ever created. It is called the Flame Dragon Sword.” “I don’t feel attached to this sword; I just feel unworthy of possessing such a powerful weapon,” Arya replied, then returned the sword to its sheath. “You know I don’t have sufficient martial skills. Do you think I can protect it?” he continued. “Hahaha... Who said you don’t have sufficient martial skills? Let me tell you something extraordinary about yourself, young man. Right now, you may not have mastered the techniques you’re learning, but once you do, you’ll be the most formidable warrior in the martial world.” “How can you be so sure?” “Because the technique you used to attack me earlier is part of the Dragon King’s technique manual, young man. That manual was once given by the Dragon King to a warrior.” “My name is Arya. You can call me that,” Arya interjected, slightly annoyed at being continuously addressed as “young man” by the great dragon. “Hahaha! I almost forgot to ask your name. You can call me Hydra!” Arya finally began to piece together the chain of events that led to his memory loss. He gained profound insights from it. He spent some time collecting all the information Sarwana had shared into a coherent story. Then he recounted to Hydra what Sarwana had told him about being prophesied by an old hermit. Hydra appeared unable to hide its surprise. “So you’re the one they’ve been talking about in the dragon world?” “What do you mean, Hydra?” Arya asked. “I’ll explain it to you later. For now, follow me to retrieve the Flame Dragon Sword!” Hydra urged. The dragon, three times the size of an adult elephant, began walking without waiting for Arya’s response, confident the young man would follow. Sure enough, with a faint smile, Arya nodded and walked after the mythical creature. To others, dragons might only be myths, but not to Arya. He had seen with his own eyes that dragons were real. An admiration lingered in Arya’s mind for the creature that had just offered to follow him. It was a feeling that defied logical explanation. Despite Hydra’s massive size, not a single sound accompanied its steps, as if its movements were so light that its feet didn’t touch the ground. There wasn’t even the slightest trace of dust or footprints left behind. Arya could only shake his head in amazement. “Didn’t you say earlier that you didn’t even use a quarter of your power when you attacked me? How can you have such immense strength?” Arya asked as they walked. Hydra exhaled deeply, releasing a small burst of fire from its nostrils. “Are you foolish, or just genuinely naive?” Arya chuckled softly. He wasn’t offended at all, even though the great dragon kept calling him foolish. “Didn’t I already tell you that this is my first time learning martial arts? Is it wrong to ask?” Hydra suddenly halted its steps. The great dragon closed its eyes briefly before turning its gaze to Arya, who was walking beside it.

"You will know the answer once you are able to maximize the power within your body, Arya. For now, stop asking questions. I can feel there is a lot of energy gathering in the forest over there!"Arya frowned. "So, you know about Sarwana, the Monkey King who rules this ravine? Is that the energy you're talking about?""I don't really know him, but I did see him earlier when I brought you food. He possesses quite a bit of power, in my opinion. But if we measure it by human standards, that monkey's power is already quite high," Hydra replied, then took another step forward.Arya was still very curious about Hydra’s answer, which didn’t address any of his questions. "Whose energy is in the forest? Why aren’t you answering me?""If you want to know the answer, you must first unite your soul with the Sword of the Fire Dragon. If not, then one of them will possess it. Now, get on my back!"Although still curious about the unanswered questions, Arya finally jumped onto Hydra's back. He truste

At the same time, he added energy to make his movements even faster."This filthy monkey's speed keeps increasing," muttered one of them. The fear creeping into his chest was growing stronger.Sarwana moved toward another person and attacked again with incredible speed. Just as his close-range strike was about to land, Kelana Jati’s staff flew through the air and struck his arm, redirecting the attack."Grrrrrghhh!" Sarwana hissed, glaring at Kelana Jati, who had attacked from a distance.Just as he was about to retaliate against Kelana Jati, three more warriors moved together, launching an attack.Three different weapons were launched at Sarwana, forcing him to dodge quickly.

The Sword Of The Fire Dragon The Human Trafficking Syndicate
The scorching midday sun blazed overhead as the mighty sun perched high in the sky. A group of about 30 people was seen walking along a narrow path, heading into a forest. Leading the group were two individuals on horseback, with two others riding at the rear.Among them were 15 men dressed like warriors, occasionally kicking at eight young men who walked unsteadily. Their feet were bound together, making their steps awkward and labored.A cart followed behind, carrying a metal cage in which five young women sat huddled. Their faces were etched with overwhelming fear, and their eyes were swollen from crying incessantly.“Our haul these past few days has been impressive, Restu. The boss will be pleased with what we’ve captured,” said a burly man wearing an earring on one ear.“You’re right, Barda. Looks like we’ll be rewarded by the boss, hahaha!”Restu smiled broadly, his gaze fixed on a handsome young man walking at the back of the eight captives with bound feet. “We’ll sell the othe

"Stop, you bastard!" shouted Darsa as he kept running after Arya. His breath was heavy, matching the quick pace of his footsteps.Thirty meters ahead, Arya's heart pounded like a war drum beaten repeatedly. The handsome young man did not glance back even once to see how close Darsa was behind him.Arya ran with all his might. His only thought was how to escape from the clutches of those who wanted to sell him."Stop, Arya! Don't run!" Darsa shouted again.Arya was the name the young man had given to the people who had captured him. In truth, he didn't remember his real name or where he came from. He remembered nothing except waking up suddenly on the banks of a fast-flowing river.While searching for food to fill his growling stomach, the human trafficking syndicate found and captured him.The gap between Arya and Darsa gradually narrowed. Physical ability and combat skills clearly made the difference. Arya was a young man with no knowledge of martial arts. Although his physique was s

"If Restu and Barda ask, just tell them the young man is dead, as you’ve seen. Now let’s leave this place!" Darsa said as he walked away from the edge of the hole.His four companions followed Darsa's brisk pace, their minds still occupied by Topan’s death—a man who had always been with them.Arya's body, however, lay unconscious after falling into the hole. The handsome young man slid through the long, slippery tunnel until he finally landed in a place filled with moss-like plants, slightly elongated but with a bluish-purple hue.Towering trees reached upward, as if without end. Dozens of monkeys—clearly the inhabitants of this place—played cheerfully, swinging from the long roots that stretched all the way to the ground.So engrossed were the monkeys in their play that they didn’t immediately notice the presence of a foreign figure, utterly different in appearance from them.For a while, Arya’s body remained motionless. His clothes were torn in several places from scraping against r

"Alright. For the time being, until your memories return, I will call you Arya. You can call me Sarwana or King Sarwana," said Sarwana with a soft chuckle.Arya couldn’t help but smile at Sarwana’s amusing expression when he laughed. The atmosphere instantly became lighter with their laughter echoing outside the hut."How about staying here for an indefinite time until you regain your memories?" Sarwana continued, posing the question after his laughter subsided.Arya was silent for a moment. He still remembered the cruelty of the human trafficking syndicate members that led him to fall and end up at the bottom of Panguripan Gorge."Why are you quiet and not answering my question, Arya?" Sarwana asked curiously."I want revenge on them! But how? They must be eradicated so no one else becomes a victim of their cruelty!" Arya growled in anger.Sarwana squinted, staring intently at Arya. Suddenly, he was reminded of a human he once knew."Why does this young man share the same spirit as h

Arya chuckled softly as he looked at Sarwana. "It turns out you weren’t lying, Sarwana. The Tundra Moss has made my bones incredibly strong," he said while shaking his head."I would never lie to you, Arya. Now come with me to a certain place!" Sarwana invited.Arya nodded, having already placed his trust in the giant ape who also happened to be the king of the Panguripan Gorge inhabitants.The two walked along paths filled with abundant Tundra Moss, thriving in the damp conditions of the gorge.To Arya, the Panguripan Gorge felt like a paradise on earth—a dream come true for many warriors. In this gorge, where he had initially lacked any desire to learn martial arts, he felt as if he had been blessed beyond measure.To him, the Tundra Moss was a guarantee that he could become a great warrior in the future. Although he still didn’t know how Sarwana planned to train him in martial arts, he felt hopeful.After walking for some time, they reached a place that was unlike most areas within

"Leave this forest immediately, or I will destroy both of you!" roared Sarwana. His thundering voice seemed to shake the hearts of the two warriors.Darmawisesa refused to let his effort to obtain the Sky Dragon Sword go to waste, and Kelana Jati felt the same way.However, the real problem was that the energy possessed by the giant ape far exceeded the combined martial prowess of the two warriors."Anyone who dares to go deeper into this forest must face me. I will not allow anyone to cause chaos in my domain!" Sarwana declared, both a warning and a threat.Meanwhile, Arya, who was deeply focused on his training, was startled by the sudden appearance of the giant dragon he had encountered the previous night. Unlike its calm demeanor the night before, when it had seen him off, the dragon now appeared with blazing red eyes radiating fury."So, you didn’t leave this place after all! Your training has disturbed my rest!" the dragon bellowed.Arya stared at the dragon in confusion. He was

Darmawisesa swiftly drew his sword to parry the attack.Boom!A deafening explosion echoed through the forest. As a result, the trees around the battlefield swayed violently, and leaves began to fall like rain. The pressure from the clash swept away dried leaves, scattering them far and wide.The warriors within the forest were startled by the thunderous sound that reached their ears. Expressions of curiosity painted their faces without exception.Meanwhile, Sarwana, perched high on a tree, could only growl in irritation. The forest near the Panguripan Ravine had become a battleground for warriors fighting over a sacred sword he had never even heard of.If it were true that the sword was hidden in the forest or the Panguripan Ravine, as the ruler of this domain, he surely would have known about it.The force of Kelana Jati's attack pushed Darmawisesa back several steps. Fortunately, he managed to regain his balance and stood tall once more.A smirk crept across his face as he noticed

The pair of eyes belonged to a massive dragon, deeply intrigued by the figure of Arya. Last night, it had deliberately let the handsome young man leave without restraint. This allowed the dragon more freedom to observe him closely."Turns out he wasn't lying," it murmured to itself. The great dragon considered Arya to be both fascinating and enigmatic.Unaware that he was being watched, Arya practiced intensely, his focus solely on mastering the techniques written in the Dragon King’s manual.The dragon remained hidden behind a large rock, continuing to spy on him. It was quite astonished to see Arya move his body like a dragon hunting its prey. In its assessment, the young man was practicing a technique clearly related to dragons.Meanwhile, Sarwana perched on a massive tree deep in the forest, watching a group of eight individuals in the distance. Judging by their appearance, he could tell they were warriors.One among them, an elderly man clad in all white with a long white beard,

Arya jumped several steps back in shock. The dragon he had seen earlier, which appeared not too big while flying in the air, turned out to be enormous, about three times the size of an adult elephant.The handsome young man could only stand frozen. His knees trembled violently, especially when he saw the sharp gaze of the creature's eyes in front of him. It was precisely the same sight he had seen before.The massive dragon writhed its head a few times and let out a loud sound as if expressing its anger. Its crimson eyes remained fixed on the human figure before it.Not knowing what to do, Arya stood still. The dragon did nothing either. They simply stared at each other for what felt like an eternity.Lacking certainty, Arya decided to speak, even though he wasn’t sure whether the dragon could understand him.“Excuse me… I have no ill intentions whatsoever. I came here because I saw the bright red light from afar.”The dragon let out a low growl while moving its head. Arya couldn’t un

"You’re just pawns being used by Ronggo for his own selfish purposes!" the man shouted as he dodged a slash aimed at his stomach."Stop talking, Gandara! How dare you insult my master!" snapped one of Ronggo's disciples."Your ambitious master deserves to be insulted!" sneered the man named Gandara. "He claims to be a warrior of the righteous path, yet his actions are no different from a dark path warrior who justifies any means to achieve his desires."Gandara suddenly drew his sword, causing Ronggo’s disciples to jump back in surprise."What makes you any different? Aren’t you here for the sacred artifact as well?" one of the disciples retorted mockingly."Hahaha…! If you think I’m the same as Ronggo, that hypocritical man, you’re gravely mistaken. I’m here to ensure the sacred sword doesn’t fall into the wrong hands!" Gandara replied with a mocking smile. "And let me make it clear—I’m stopping you to ensure you return empty-handed. But if you refuse to leave, then I’ll make sure yo
