The Sword Of The Fire Dragon A Cunning Plan
Two luxurious horse-drawn carriages moved in succession, surrounded by thousands of soldiers providing protection. One carriage carried King Dharma Kusuma, Prince Purbaya, and Mandalasura, while the other was occupied by three elders from the dark sect.The villagers along the route watched in astonishment. Such a grand procession of Cakrabuana Kingdom’s troops was an extremely rare sight, leaving them bewildered.Speculations quickly arose among the people, and their thoughts converged on the likelihood of war. Judging by the direction and destination of the troops, many assumed that a civil war was imminent.Inside his opulent carriage, King Dharma Kusuma grinned broadly, imagining himself seizing full control of the kingdom left by his late father."It won’t be long before you can avenge yourself, Purbaya. And you’ll also get to claim those two beautiful women as your own, hahahaha!" The king’s loud laughter filled the carriage.Prince Purbaya only responded with a small smile. His
The Sword Of The Fire Dragon The Dragon King's Eyes
For the residents of the capital city, there was no other option but to obey the order to leave. Aside from valuable coins and a few sets of clothing, they could bring nothing else. Everything was left behind, including livestock and household furniture.Prime Minister Bayu Aji and Commander Argananta watched the soldiers work with serious expressions. Occasionally, they shouted orders whenever they noticed inefficiencies in the soldiers' tasks.Commander Argananta, with his extensive experience in defending against invasions from rival kingdoms attempting to conquer the Sastrajingga Kingdom, carefully explained the necessary steps to take. He applied his past experiences to assist Prime Minister Bayu Aji in handling the impending attack from the Cakrabuana Kingdom.Inside the palace, the atmosphere was just as tense. Gone were the joyful laughter and merriment that once filled the halls before King Dharma Kusuma declared war.King Wijay
The Sword Of The Fire Dragon 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
The Sword Of The Fire Dragon The Four Pillar Crater Lake
"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 Sword Of The Fire Dragon 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
The Sword Of The Fire Dragon 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 Sword Of The Fire Dragon 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
The Sword Of The Fire Dragon 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

Sastra Wijaya
After Arya agreed to the wishes of the ruler of the Sastrajingga Kingdom, all members of the Red Snake sect were gathered together. The young man gave them a chance to change for the better. His offer was to become soldiers of the Sastrajingga Kingdom. But before making the offer, Arya had already consulted with King Dharmalaksana. The majority of the Red Snake sect members were willing to become part of the Sastrajingga Kingdom. Only a small number chose to return to their homes and reunite with their families. Before leaving the mountain, Arya erased all the inner energy they possessed. He did this to ensure no traces of dark power remained when they became soldiers. He did the same for those who chose to return to their families. Dozens of soldiers and former Red Snake sect members who had declared their readiness to serve the Sastrajingga Kingdom stayed behind to bury the stiffening corpses. Meanwhile, a
A Heartwarming Reunion
Arya stood frozen, stunned to see Princess Laras sobbing as she embraced him. His broad chest, covered by his clothing, was wet with the tears flowing from the corners of the princess’s beautiful eyes, whose beauty rivaled that of Ratnasari.If Ratnasari hadn’t been beside him, he would have surely returned the embrace to comfort her.However, something unexpected happened. Ratnasari stepped forward and stopped directly in front of the two of them, whose bodies were close together. She placed her hands over Arya’s and wrapped them around Princess Laras's back.Arya gazed into the eyes of his beloved. There was a look of wonder and a silent question in his mind that needed an answer.Responding to the confusion reflected in Arya’s eyes, Ratnasari smiled and nodded.Now Arya realized that King Wijaya Kusuma’s words, about Ratnasari being willing to share her heart with Princess Laras, were true. Even so, he felt the need to ask wh
The End of the Battle
Reso was irritated by the question asked by Prawiro. To him, such a foolish question should not have been directed at him. Especially considering Prawiro’s status as one of the elders of the Red Snake Sect, he should have been able to think more broadly and wisely."Do you want to die in vain without fighting back? It's clear that young man won’t let us go, and you’re still asking what we should do?" Reso retorted.Prawiro was offended by Reso’s words. He stood up, no longer willing to help his friend to his feet. He glared at Arya for a moment, steadying his breath.Reso was puzzled by Prawiro’s attitude. He had been patient with Prawiro’s sometimes childish behavior. Like now, for example. It was clear Prawiro was sulking due to the harshness of his words.Unexpectedly, Prawiro lunged to attack Arya. The red staff in his hand spun rapidly before he thrust it forcefully toward Arya’s neck."Don’t be rash, Prawiro!" Reso shouted
Attempt at Peace
The two old men couldn’t hide their shock. As elders of a black sect based in the Sastrajingga Kingdom, they couldn’t detect the nature of the energy emitted by the young man. Normally, just by sensing the pressure alone, they would have been able to tell.Realizing the danger that could easily cost them their lives, Reso took the initiative to make peace with the handsome young man."Wait, Warrior… We’ve never had any conflict before. So I hope this fight ends here."Monk Red Venom was surprised by what his comrade said. He didn’t expect the one known as the Serpent King Warrior to surrender so easily.Reso hadn’t exactly said the word “surrender,” but by offering to end the fight, it was essentially the same thing."About my men—I’ll order them to withdraw, Warrior," Reso added."What are you doing, Reso? Why are you giving up so easily?" Monk Red Venom growled in frustration."Do you want us to die in vain, Prawi
The King Serpent Warrior’s Aid
Arya merely shifted his body slightly, allowing the red beam to shoot past just a few inches in front of him. As he dodged, a smile spread across his face—mocking, almost taunting his opponent’s attempt."Don’t you have anything faster than that?" Arya sneered."You arrogant brat! That was only the beginning!" shouted Monk Red Venom.The old man in all-red attire leaped forward, raising his staff high before swinging it down, aiming straight for Arya’s head."Die!"Blaaar!Monk Red Venom grunted in frustration. The powerful strike he launched missed completely, striking only the sandy ground and sending a thick cloud of dust into the air. His vision was quickly obscured, leaving him unable to see where his opponent had gone.Fortunately, the strong mountain wind soon dispersed the dust cloud. When visibility returned, the old man saw that the young warrior was no longer in front of him."Don’t you run
Monk Red Venom
The beautiful girl narrowed her eyes, gazing up at the mountain. With her heightened sense of hearing still sharp, Ratnasari tried to locate the source of the battle."Arya, there's a fight. The sound is coming from up there!" Her slender index finger pointed to a spot."If you train your senses often enough, you can hear even the slightest sound without needing deep focus. You can even sense someone's suppressed energy, though the limit is usually only if their inner strength is no more than one level above yours," Arya explained."Really? But didn’t you once say we can’t sense the energy of someone whose level is above ours?" Ratnasari asked."That was my old thinking. But during my disappearance, I learned many new things, some quite different from the usual beliefs of most warriors," Arya replied. His gaze returned to the spot Ratnasari had pointed out earlier."We’d better go check it out up there," he added."Hmm.
The Sound of Battle
"Forgive me, but I can't believe you've stepped down, My Lord. To me, you are still the Grand Commander—an irreplaceable war leader. I have seen firsthand how you organize the troops, both in offense and defense," said Nara.Arya raised an eyebrow. "Were you part of the archery unit?""Yes, My Lord. I was among the archers led by Lord Rengga when we attacked the enemy in a valley flanked by hills," the soldier replied."Sit down first. I’ll explain everything. To be honest, I don't like being treated like that," Arya said."I'm sorry, My Lord, but I wouldn’t dare. It's not my place to sit at the same level as you." The soldier kept his gaze lowered, fearfully.Arya looked displeased at the refusal. "That’s an order! Sit next to me—now!" he said firmly.Overcome with fear, the four men quickly rose and sat down in the guard post.The atmosphere shifted drastically. Previously, Karso and the others had spoken to
Suspicion
Watini's imagination soared into the air. As a village girl who had never set foot outside her hometown, she imagined that all the young men in the capital city must be just as handsome as the guest currently in her village.She tried to suppress the rush of blood that surged when she saw Arya. Deep down, she knew her place and felt she had no chance competing against Ratnasari, whose beauty was above average."Come on, Ratna," urged Watini. Staying there any longer would only stir her youthful emotions further and torment her imagination, she thought.Ratnasari nodded and walked alongside Watini toward her house.“Is that girl your lover? Oh, and what’s your name, young man?”“My name is Arya, Uncle.”“And the girl?” the man asked again.“She is indeed my lover. We’re planning to visit some relatives in Sastrajingga, the royal capital,” Arya answered with a made-up story.“I see. You two make a very fine couple—handsome and beautiful,” the man said with a warm smile. “My name is Kars
The Last Tribute
Rengga could only nod slowly. He knew very well who Arya was and what his nature was like. The young man had never once put himself first before thinking about others. In his heart, Rengga promised to keep the message the young man had given him. To prioritize the interests of the people over his own personal interests. As the afternoon approached, Arya and Ratnasari bid farewell to King Wijaya Kusuma, Prime minister Bayu Aji, Rengga, and all the officials present in the palace hall. The departure of the pair of warriors who had been consecrated as the great heroes of the Jaya Buana kingdom left sadness for everyone who knew and understood their exploits. Unexpectedly for Arya and Ratnasari, their departure plans leaked out and spread throughout every corner of Capital. Since noon, almost all the residents of Capital had gathered in a row along the road from in front of the palace to outside the gate. They w
