The Sword Of The Fire Dragon The Gaze of the Princess
Before the soldier could vent his emotions, a luxurious horse-drawn carriage, escorted by about twenty mounted soldiers, approached the city gate.The gatekeepers immediately straightened their posture, bowing their heads and keeping their gazes fixed on the ground.As the convoy stopped near the gate, a man in his forties, riding a large black horse and leading the group, steered his mount closer to the gate guards."What’s going on, soldier? I saw from afar that you were in a dispute.""My apologies, Lord Bayu Aji… but this young man insists on entering the Royal City. He claims he wants to participate in the upcoming tournament, but I have forbidden him."The man named Bayu Aji shifted his gaze toward Arya and Ratnasari. Unlike the gate guards who cowered before him, the handsome young man and the beautiful girl stood firm, showing no trace of fear."Is it true that you want to enter the tournament?" Bayu Aji asked gently."Yes, my lord. Is there a rule that prohibits someone like
The Sword Of The Fire Dragon Conflict at the Inn
Upon arriving in front of a large, three-story inn, Arya and Ratnasari leaped off their horses. After tying the reins to a wooden post, they entered the building. Several other horses, belonging to the inn’s guests, were also tied there.In addition to being an inn, the building also served as a dining place. The second and third floors were for lodging, while the ground floor functioned as a restaurant.The atmosphere on the ground floor was lively. Not a single table was unoccupied—every seat was taken, and the guests were packed closely together."It looks like there's no empty table, Ratna. How about we book a room first, then find food elsewhere?" Arya suggested."Whatever you think is best," Ratnasari replied.The young warrior pair made their way toward the staircase leading to the second floor. Their striking features did not go unnoticed, drawing lingering stares from the mostly male patrons. Ratnasari, in particular, stood out
The Sword Of The Fire Dragon Love Comes Uninvited
Most of the inn’s visitors were also going to participate in the upcoming tournament, so unnecessary conflicts would only bring harm to themselves.After leaving the place, Arya and Ratnasari headed to another eatery not far from the palace. Though it also had three floors, the restaurant itself was larger than the inn where they were staying. People came and went, and nearly all of them were dressed like warriors.It seemed the upcoming tournament had become a magnet for warriors eager to test their fate. Of course, this was a blessing for the residents of Capital. Many homes had turned into makeshift inns since all official lodgings in the city were already full.Merchants, especially food vendors, were reaping great benefits. In fact, almost every business was flourishing thanks to the grand event hosted by the palace.Meanwhile, inside the palace, the beautiful young woman who had been in the carriage earlier and had locked eyes with Arya at the main gate was now sitting in her ch
The Sword Of The Fire Dragon Prince Purbaya
Arya took a deep breath. He thought the bald-headed man needed a lesson so he wouldn't bother him again. However, the handsome young man reconsidered attacking Darsono right then and there. The place was still crowded, and a commotion could attract unnecessary attention."If you want to cause trouble with me now, then you'll have to deal with Lord Bayu Aji. But if we meet on the stage later, he won't be able to do anything. So I suggest you hold back your anger and unleash it when you finally face me," Arya said.Darsono growled in anger. The tall, muscular man had no choice but to accept the handsome youth's advice. He had originally intended to beat him up and take the girl who was with him. Not only as a mere drinking companion but also for his sinister intentions toward her curvaceous body."This time, you get to walk away. But when we meet on the stage, I will break your bones!" Darsono threatened."Say whatever you want. But I suggest you start praying that we never meet on that
The Sword Of The Fire Dragon Challenge
Arya remained silent, only giving a small nod in response to the words of the tall, burly soldier.Before long, Bayu Aji was already near them. The Grand Senapati of the Jayabuana Kingdom saluted Prince Purbaya, who maintained his arrogant demeanor despite standing before Jayabuana’s war commander."Welcome to the Jayabuana Kingdom, Prince. Why didn’t you inform us beforehand if you were planning to come here?"Prince Purbaya looked at Bayu Aji with a scornful gaze. "Whether I inform you or not, what business is it of yours? This is my uncle’s kingdom, so I am free to come here whenever I please!"Bayu Aji took a deep breath. His attempt to formally welcome the Crown Prince of Cakrabuana was met with an unpleasant response."My apologies, Prince... but may I ask your purpose in coming here? I mean, why are you standing in line at the registration area?""Do you see me standing in line? I am the Crown Prince of Cakrabuana. Do you really think I should be pushing through the crowd just
The Sword Of The Fire Dragon Tournament Registration
BerikuRemembering Princess Laras's message, Bayu Aji took the initiative to ask the young man in front of him a question. "What is your name, young man?""My name is Arya, Sir.""Alright, Arya... Wait here! I will register you," Bayu Aji said."There is no need, Sir. I would rather stand in line like the other participants. I am not someone special who deserves special treatment, so I think you should register Prince Purbaya instead."Besides not wanting to cut in line, Arya certainly did not want anyone to know that he was also registering Ratnasari for the upcoming tournament. The beautiful girl was currently waiting for him at a small eatery near the royal square.Bayu Aji took a deep breath and nodded before walking toward the registration table to register Prince Purbaya.After leaving the square, Prince Purbaya and his four soldiers hurried toward the palace. His goal was to meet his uncle and inform him that his father had ordered him to participate in the tournament.Upon arr
The Sword Of The Fire Dragon The Opening of the Tournament
"So, you're not just bluffing, beautiful girl! It looks like I'll have to use force to get you!" Darsono licked his lips, his desire growing stronger."If you can, then do it! But don't regret it if I kill you!" Ratnasari replied. Her slender fingers fastened her twin swords back onto her back.Some other customers hurriedly ran out of the tavern. They knew a fight was about to break out and wanted no part in it.The elderly woman who owned the tavern could only remain silent, resigned to the fact that her only source of income was about to become a battleground for two warriors. Her face looked weary, and her eyes glistened with tears that would soon fall.The tall, burly man’s emotions boiled over. With firm strides, he charged toward Ratnasari, launching his attack.His large fist shot toward the young woman’s chest. But with just a sidestep, Ratnasari easily dodged the opening strike. Not only that, she counterattacked, landing a precise hit on the man's stomach, pushing him back
The Sword Of The Fire Dragon First Round
According to the lottery results, Arya and Ratnasari were assigned to different stages. Arya was on stage number three, while Ratnasari was on stage number four.The adjacent battle arenas allowed the young warriors to sit together instead of being separated. They sat among the other participants waiting for their turn on both stages.Unexpectedly, Darsono was also assigned to stage number four, the same as Ratnasari. This made him excited and eager to teach the beautiful girl a lesson.The most difficult situation would be faced by the warriors on stage number two. The presence of Prince Purbaya, who was also in group two, certainly caused confusion among the other participants. As the crown prince of the Cakrabuana Kingdom, his position put the competitors in a dilemma. They couldn’t possibly dare to injure the crown prince, even though the tournament had no special rules.Participants were free to injure or even kill their opponents. Additionally, anyone who surrendered or stepped

Farewell
A massive explosion echoed through the air. Sparks scattered, igniting dry leaves and spreading the fire even further.The sheer force of the blast nearly leveled the burning village. Only a few buildings remained standing, but it was only a matter of time before the flames consumed them.In the capital city of Jaya Buana, soldiers looked up at the billowing smoke rising into the sky. Their curiosity grew even more intense when the sound of the explosion reached their ears.They were confused about what had happened. However, some soldiers who had seen Rengga and Ratnasari leave the city assumed that the smoke, fire, and explosion were all caused by them.Though the thick smoke and dust still obscured their vision, Abhinaya and Abhirama were confident that their attack had struck their opponent with deadly precision.Not wanting to waste any more time, Abhinaya channeled his internal energy to clear the dust and smoke. He waved
Demon Shadow Circle Formation
Rengga’s doubts turned out to be correct. Slowly but surely, the twin-faced old warriors began to pressure him. His left arm even got slightly grazed by the tip of Abhinaya’s sword, which he failed to parry. However, he still had confidence in holding his ground with the sword in his grasp.Although it wasn’t a direct hit, it was enough to prove that these two were not to be underestimated. It made sense that Abhinaya and Abhirama were Mandalasura’s right-hand men in controlling the Shadow Demon Sect.Elsewhere, Ratnasari had already drawn her Black Eagle twin swords. Despite being individually superior to the people surrounding her, they had a formation that made things difficult for her.Her black-bladed swords moved swiftly, blocking attacks. It wasn’t that she wasn’t trying to break through their formation, but every time she attempted a counterattack, two or three strikes came at her simultaneously. That made it incredibly difficult for her
Rengga vs. The Twin Demon Warriors
Rengga’s demeanor aroused Abhinaya’s suspicion. Furthermore, as Abhirama’s blood brother, he also felt insulted by the smirk on the thirty-year-old man’s lips.However, accusing them without proof could lead to serious consequences for him and his younger brother. After all, Reksapati’s great name as Ratnasari’s father could not be ignored. Accusing the beautiful young woman without valid evidence was the same as inviting trouble with the leader of the Devil’s Eagle Sect.Abhirama closely examined the corpse of his subordinate. There were no visible wounds or blood, strengthening his suspicion that Ratnasari was the one who had killed him. The young woman had the ability to take a life without leaving any external injuries."Answer our question! Were you the ones who killed him?" Abhirama pointed at the lifeless body.Ratnasari and Rengga did not respond immediately. They exchanged glances before shifting their focus beyond the two elder
Certainty
Rengga and Ratnasari turned around and faced backward almost simultaneously. They saw a man dressed entirely in black standing near a large tree, displaying a hostile demeanor.The scout had no choice but to step out of hiding. He didn’t want the man and woman to leave before he understood why they had burned down the village. However, his elders hadn’t arrived yet, which put him at risk if he tried to stop them alone.He realized that his life was in grave danger if he insisted on confronting them. Judging by their physical characteristics, he could tell they were skilled warriors.Since the black-clad man showed no intention of advancing, Rengga and Ratnasari decided to take the initiative. They walked toward him.“Damn it...! Why are they coming this way?” the scout cursed internally, regretting his decision to reveal himself.He glanced behind him, hoping his comrades had arrived, but he saw no one. His face paled, and fear
Burning the Village to the Ground
Rengga and Ratnasari took turns explaining the enemy’s current position.King Wijaya Kusuma furrowed his brows in deep thought as he listened to their report. In terms of numbers, Jaya Buana had more soldiers than Cakrabuana. However, with Mandalasura likely joining the enemy ranks, King Dharma Kusuma now had a powerful asset—a trump card that could shift the tide of war in his favor.The discussion continued as King Wijaya Kusuma invited Rengga, Ratnasari, and Prime Minister Bayu Aji into his private chamber.Given the urgency of the situation, he found it difficult to trust even his own officials. He feared that the strategy he was about to finalize with the three of them might be leaked.Rengga estimated that the enemy would arrive the following evening, just before nightfall. It was unlikely they would attack immediately. They would certainly use the night to rest and regain their strength.For King Wijaya Kusuma and the palace inhabi
The Appointment of Rengga
A lead soldier walked toward Rengga and Ratnasari. His gaze was downcast, and his eyes were teary after witnessing his comrades being slain."My Lord...," he said softly, unable to hide the sorrow consuming his mind.Rengga sensed the deep pain the lead soldier felt. "Do not dwell in such grief. Death is inevitable and will come to all living beings. They fell as heroes and will always be remembered as such. Trust me, their sacrifice will not be in vain.""Understood, My Lord. Then what should we do with our fallen comrades?""We will bring their bodies. They are heroes and must be buried with honor," Rengga replied.The lead soldier nodded. He took a moment to think before turning away to gather the fallen warriors’ remains.Not long after, the Jaya Buana royal troops began their journey back to the capital. At the very least, they would report the initial victory they had just achieved, boosting the morale of the rema
The Twin Devil Warriors' Reconnaissance
A lead soldier approached Rengga and Ratnasari. His gaze was lowered, and his eyes glistened with tears after witnessing his comrades fall in battle.“My lord…,” he spoke softly, unable to hide the sorrow overwhelming his mind.Rengga sensed the grief the lead soldier was feeling. “There’s no need to dwell in sadness like this. Death is an inevitability, something that all living beings must face. They died as heroes and will always be remembered as such. Trust me, their deaths will not be in vain.”“Yes, my lord. Then, what should we do with our fallen comrades?”“We will bring their bodies back. They are heroes, and they deserve a proper burial,” Rengga replied.The lead soldier nodded, taking a moment to think before walking toward the gathered bodies of his fallen comrades.Before long, the Jaya Buana royal army began their journey back to the capital city. At the very least, they would deliver the news of their fir
A Small War in the Forest
Rengga grinned. To the soldiers, that smile was like a death alarm, signaling that their souls were about to be taken to Nirvana. Their minds were completely dominated by the god of death, who seemed to be dancing right before their eyes.In the midst of overwhelming fear, a glimmer of hope emerged when the sound of galloping hooves thundered in the distance, pounding against the earth. Shouts of encouragement, urging the horses to go faster, echoed from different mouths.The soldiers turned around. Their smiles formed with a hint of relief. At the very least, with the arrival of another cavalry force rushing to join them, their hope of survival was rekindled.Like the soldiers, Rengga and Ratnasari also turned their gaze toward the approaching cavalry, which was far larger in number than before.Based on Rengga’s rough estimate, there were around five hundred to six hundred cavalry troops who would soon arrive at their location. Their minds quickly started calculating—whether to figh
Savage
Rengga and Ratnasari never expected that a soldier would detect their presence. A small mistake by Ratnasari, who leaned her head out too far, resulted in their hiding spot behind the large rock being discovered.Thousands of eyes followed the direction of the soldier's pointing finger. None of them had anticipated that two people were secretly observing the Cakrabuana Kingdom's forces in the valley.A suspicion arose among the soldiers. They were convinced that the two spies belonged to the Jaya Buana Kingdom."Capture them both!" The thunderous voice of a tall, burly man issued the command. The sword already drawn in his hand pointed at Rengga and Ratnasari. He was Commander Antasena, the warlord of the Cakrabuana Kingdom.As soon as Commander Antasena’s order was heard, thousands of soldiers rushed forward like a tidal wave toward the two individuals they suspected were spies.Their swords and spears were drawn, ready to stri
