The Sword Of The Fire Dragon Master Sumoharjo and Sutojoyo
"Why is this place so deserted? Where have its inhabitants gone?" Sumoharjo asked curiously."Everyone, spread out and find someone we can question!" Sutojoyo commanded firmly to a dozen of his subordinates.Without waiting for a second order, the twelve members of the Blood Red Moon Sect dispersed, searching every corner thoroughly.Sumo and Suto themselves headed straight to the sect's main hall. They assumed Reksapati might be in the only place designated for receiving guests.The strangeness of the situation grew more evident in the eyes of the two elderly men. Most notably, there was no sign of life within the Devil's Eagle Sect complex.When they arrived in front of the hall, they opened the door without knocking. The absence of guards, who usually stood at the entrance, deepened their curiosity.What they saw inside the hall further fueled their questions."Don’t you think something’s strange, Suto? Why has everyone in this sect vanished without a trace?" Sumo asked, scanning t
The Sword Of The Fire Dragon Basement Room
Without further ado, Darsih began eating the dish she had just taken. She transferred bite after bite of food into her mouth until everything was in her stomach.“Done, Elder,” she said.“All right. You may go back,” replied Sumoharjo.Darsih nodded and walked out of the hall.After Darsih’s departure, Sumoharjo instructed his men to follow the maid to observe her condition after consuming the food.An hour passed, and the food had turned cold. The member assigned to watch over Darsih returned to the hall.“How is she?” Sumoharjo asked, curious.“She’s fine, Leader. There’s no sign of poisoning,” the man replied.Sumoharjo furrowed his brow, pursing his wrinkled lips. Disappointment etched itself in the lines of his face.“It seems you were wrong, Sumo. Darsih hasn’t poisoned anyone. All the members of this sect have indeed gone on an attack, but we don’t know where,” said Suto.“Forget it. Let’s eat first!” Sumoharjo said, weary of his incorrect assumptions.Suddenly, Darsih re-enter
The Sword Of The Fire Dragon Important Information
Seeing the arrival of Darsih and her group, along with a young man, Sumoharjo’s lips curved into a slight smile. At least, he hoped to extract some information from the young man. “My apologies, Chief. This young man was indeed hiding in the basement. His name is Bidura, and he’s a new member of this school,” reported one of the members. Sumoharjo nodded as he observed Bidura, who was trembling in fear. “Do you know where Reksapati took his men? I mean, who are they attacking?” “Forgive me, Elder. From what I overheard, the leader headed to a forest, but I don’t know its exact location,” Bidura replied hesitantly. Sumoharjo scratched his head slowly, confused by Bidura’s vague answer. “Speak clearly. Why would Reksapati take his men to a forest? Who are they planning to attack?” “He wants revenge for the death of 200 sect members, who he claims were killed by a giant ape and a young warrior.” Bidura swallowed hard. “Elder Sunarya also became a victim, Elder.” “A giant ape? A you
The Sword Of The Fire Dragon The Journey Begins
"That's okay. I was just about to look for you to tell you that the process of neutralizing the dark element in Ratna's body is complete," replied Sarwana.Arya smiled warmly. His gaze shifted toward Ratnasari until their eyes met. The beautiful girl blushed and quickly looked away.Even though they had met daily for the past week, Ratnasari still felt shy when making eye contact with Arya. She didn’t know why, but it was most likely because of her growing feelings for the handsome young man."I came here to ask about that as well," Arya replied. The young man then sat beside Ratnasari."And what about her martial arts skills? Are they also gone?" he continued."Don't worry. None of Ratna's martial arts skills are lost. Only her toxic spells have been deliberately removed," Sarwana explained. The large ape stood and walked toward a small cabinet. Opening it, he retrieved a small cloth-wrapped package before closing the cabinet again.Sarwana then sat cross-legged in front of the two y
The Sword Of The Fire Dragon Arriving at the Devils Eagle Sect
"Let's postpone this, Suto!" "Why postpone it? We need to know the fate of Reksapati and all his members!" replied Sutojoyo, disagreeing with Sumoharjo's suggestion. "In a situation like this, we mustn't act recklessly. I'm worried that Ronggo might have prepared a trap if we recklessly head there," Sumoharjo replied. "Don't tell me you're afraid, Sumo!" mocked Sutojoyo. "Do you even know the difference between fear and caution?" Sumoharjo scoffed, annoyed. "If Reksapati has truly suffered because of Ronggo, then we might share the same fate!" "I believe the two of us can defeat Ronggo and all his members, Sumo!" Sutojoyo retorted, unwilling to back down. "You still can't think ahead, Suto." Sumoharjo sat down on a cushioned chair. "If the situation were normal, we might defeat them. But have you thought about the fact that if Reksapati and so many of his members were defeated, what chance do just the two of us have? And we don't even know who has been helping Ronggo." "Why do y
The Sword Of The Fire Dragon Suspicion of Sutojoyo
Without hesitation, Ratnasari invited Arya to meet Sutojoyo in the hall. The beautiful girl wanted answers to the curiosity that lingered in her mind regarding the arrival of the two leaders of the Scarlet Blood Moon sect."Who are they?" Arya asked, equally intrigued."They’re from the Scarlet Blood Moon sect. I don’t know why they’re here, but I have a bad feeling about their presence," Ratnasari replied as she kept walking. "The Scarlet Blood Moon sect is one of the eight rulers of the dark factions, and their two leaders rank sixth.""And your father?" Arya asked again. He glanced briefly at the beautiful girl before looking straight ahead. In terms of experience in the martial world, especially regarding the dark factions, Arya was still very green and far behind Ratnasari, who was a former member of the Baluran Black Sect."My father ranks last," Ratnasari replied briefly, stopping in front of the hall door.Without knocking, the beautiful girl pushed the door open and stepped i
The Sword Of The Fire Dragon A Trap for Sutojoyo
"You can go wherever she pleases. Later, I'll give you part of the treasures stored in Father’s room as a provision," Ratnasari said with a smile to Darsih. "Now, let’s go to Father’s room!" she added. Darsih nodded. The middle-aged woman stepped forward, following Ratnasari, who had already exited the room. Deep down, Darsih felt heavy-hearted about leaving the place she had lived in for over twenty years. She could return to her family, but she wasn’t sure they were still around. During her years at the Devils Eagle sect, she had only returned home once, and that was fifteen years ago. After that, she had no news of her family. Not long after, they entered Reksapati’s room. Ratnasari knew exactly where her father usually kept his treasures. She opened a small cabinet in the corner of the room and retrieved a small wooden chest adorned with intricate carvings. "After this, you must leave this place immediately," Ratnasari said as she opened the small chest. She took out a pouch o
The Sword Of The Fire Dragon Arya vs Sutojoyo 1
"Why do you ask like that?" Sutojoyo's wrinkled forehead grew even more pronounced."What I mean is this, Elder. I feel that the leader of Reksapati possesses extraordinary abilities. Not to mention the Black Eagle sword that he relies on. How does the martial arts of the Reksapati leader compare to yours, Elder?" Arya explained and asked.Sutojoyo became more confused by Arya's question. "What exactly is in your mind by asking like that? Do you want to join my school?""No, Elder. I’m just trying to compare the Devils Eagle school with the one you lead. Logically speaking, if the measure for determining the position of a leader in the black sect is martial ability, then the Reksapati leader should be ranked above you," Arya said.Sutojoyo stood up, his emotions flaring. "Watch your words, young man! If you think that because I am paired with Sumoharjo, I can only be in the sixth position, then you’re gravely mistaken. Even if I were alone, Reksapati would still be beneath me!"Arya r

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
Divine Will
A huge question immediately popped into Arya's mind. "What could the Jaya Buana ruler possibly want in my room at this late hour? Is it something so important that he had to come see me?" "Why are you so surprised to see me? May I come in?" King Wijaya Kusuma asked, his smile radiating strong friendship. The question startled Arya, who was still frozen in shock at the sudden arrival of King Wijaya Kusuma. "Oh, uh... Please, Your Majesty. Consider it your own home," the young man replied, opening his room door wide. King Wijaya Kusuma chuckled softly. "How could you possibly tell me to consider your palace my home?" "Oh, yes..." Arya became even more awkward and flustered at the small mistake he had made. King Wijaya Kusuma walked into the room and chose a chair to sit on. After closing the room door, Arya walked towards the king. As he was facing a king, Arya stood with his head bowed. "Hahaha
Ratnasari's Threat
Embarrassed? Of course, Prince Purbaya felt ashamed to have to apologize to Ratnasari. But he felt he had to do it if he truly wanted to change his ways. Step by step, the younger brother of King Wijaya Kusuma approached Ratnasari. It wasn't out of fear of Arya, but because he had made up his mind to become a better person. Standing before Ratnasari, Prince Purbaya bowed his head. All eyes in the hall were on him. "I apologize for all the wrongs I have done to you," he said, not daring to look at Ratnasari's face. Shame was the most accurate word to describe his current feelings. Ratnasari, still angry at the man, turned her face away. Coincidentally, Arya was looking at her and gave her a slight glare. With a nod, the handsome young man signaled for his lover to forgive Prince Purbaya, even if it was just a formality. Ratnasari put on a sour face. In her heart, she found it very difficult to forgive Prince Purbaya. But be
