DARK SWORDSMAN
THE CHAPTER 51

Before leaving they all paid a farewell to the Maharaja Kanigara Lakeswara Prabu. Surely as servants who have been bound to the palace, they will not dare to arbitrarily do so in the palace.

"I feel like I've been through something strange since I became king."

"Gusti Prabu just isn't used to it yet."

"But I feel so ashamed of Raden. What say the people will also know I got this throne because of the help of others?. I don't deserve to be king."

"Gusti Prabu don't feel discouraged. Let them think what it is like. But we all know how Gusti Prabu struggles all this time."

"That's Gusti Prabu. All that we have gained today is a form of struggle."

"Well, you're right. All we have got today is because of the struggle."

Back then they only felt a very awkward atmosphere, to them it was a result they had achieved all along.

"For now the title of Patih has not been found exactly to whom. I hope you received that title arya susena."

"Please forgive Gusti Prabu. For the servant of the title it is not appropriate. And anyway we have unfinished duties as warriors of darkness."

"Is this country not safe?. Then why do you still want to smear your blood in a dark circle?."

"As swordsmen of darkness we have not completed our task Gusti. For there are still many of the followers of the cruel King who are still hiding out there."

"But at least with the title you have you can do as much as you can."

Arya Susena then settled her four friends, she smiled a little. "For us, warriors of darkness remain warriors of darkness who will always protect this palace with blood." He held his hand firmly. "We warriors of darkness are not fit to be in the palace. The government in our palace handed over to Gusti Prabu. While we will be the main shield of this spear, we will stab anyone who will carry out a rebellion. Or to those who dare to openly oppress the people."

"What does Senopati's uncle Warsa think?. According to uncle?. Right young Patih we give to arya susena?."

"Please forgive Gusti Prabu." He gave respect. "Hamba knows very well how the character of arya susena. Surely he would not involve himself with things that mingle with the kingdom. He was a child raised with a sword, if Gusti faced the throne of government of course he would not want to do that. So according to the servant just let the arya susena be outside to protect this palace."

Prabu Maharaja Kanigara Lakeswara at that time thought about it. "It's a pity, even though I really hope a lot for you arya susena. But I can't seem to force you like that." Few knew how the young man behaved.

"Thank you for understanding Gusti Prabu. Then we decided to go to the high cliff village. Because according to the information we got they were there."

"Then please help. I hope you can do your job well."

"Sandika Gusti Prabu."

After that they left the meeting. Surely they will not linger there.

"It's very unfortunate. Though I had hoped that he would be a Patih who would give me great advice."

"The eyes are like that, Gusti. Even if anything Gusti offered him was to take the throne?. Then he will never feel glare, because he has become accustomed to what he has had all this time."

They were all just beards listening to what Senopati Warsa So had said.

"If arya susena doesn't agree?. Then what are we gonna do?. Are we going to leave this palace without a Patih?."

The atmosphere seemed to be a little rowdy, as they were all very curious who would hold the title of Patih if no one found it suitable?.

"How about for a while?. For the office of Patih we leave it to the first son of the late Gusti Patih arya saka?. Raden arya restapati."

At that moment they all looked towards Arya Restapati who looked surprised by what Sardala Saguna had said. Indeed, they all do not know the figure of the first son of the late Patih Arya Saka.

"Please forgive Gusti Prabu. The hollow servant is not fit to be a Patih. Because the servant is not as smart as the servant sister, especially so far the servant is only a traveler. Maybe there's a better candidate than a servant."

Back they were confused by what Arya Restapati had said. Of course they are all very confused if no one wants the rank of position as a Patih.

"Alright, for a while we postpone anyone who has the right to be a coach. For now we are still focused on the development period. We will return the tribute that was forcibly taken before to the people who are in desperate need." Prabu Maharaja Kanigara Lakeswara at that time was not wanting to bother himself. "Then let's see how the moisture from the food supply is in this kingdom."

"That problem we have examined very well Gusti. Lots of supplies, and I think it's pre-war preparation."

"Thank you Uncle Senopati Warsa so. We're going to take data from the population, so we can share it equally." On that day they were really discussing what they should prioritize.

The first thing they do is meet the needs of the people who have been suffering. They all hope that the donation will provide relief to those who have been tormented by the enormous tax imposed on the people.

...***...

Meanwhile, somewhere.

Senopati Jenar Tapa at that time was still preparing everything they would use to invade the palace later.

"What is the set of powers you have done?. Have you prepared everything?."

"Of course we're ready, Gusti. Right now we're all waiting for a cue from Gusti."

"It's good that you're ready. Tonight we'll infiltrate the palace. Then we hit them when they rest and let their guard down."

"We will obey whatever Gusti tells us. I can't wait to hit them all."

"You must remain careful. Because what we're about to face is the swordsman of darkness." The anxious feeling he felt at that moment had made him wary. "The power is terrible. Even without the use of special forces, they had managed to kill the patih palasara mada. Moreover they had also killed all the troops using only the shadow army. So we have to be careful when dealing with them."

"Of course we have to be careful Gusti. There's no way we'd die in vain just because of the rotten stratagem they used."

At that secret meeting they were actually preparing everything to take back the palace. But will they succeed in taking over the palace?. Check out how the story will happen.

...***...

"I think I'm back to wandering. More precisely back to the wild."

"You mustn't over-represent your mood, Darsana."

"I'm sure you feel that way too, patari."

"Then why don't we just stop by the forbidden forest?. I'm afraid our house has been dusty because we left the forbidden forest for too long."

"I think it's true what you said nismara." Arya Susena must have felt it. "I think I miss seeing them so much."

The deg!.

Instantly their bodies were floating listening to what Arya Susena had said.

"Why do your faces look pale?. Don't you miss the people who are there?."

"You are a rotten dog. Why do you miss such strange things?."

"You are a strange arya. Don't you fear us with your annoying words."

"If you miss them, you don't have to call them in front of us. Because the only one who can see them is you!. Don't you understand how scared we are if you open our inner eyes to look at that creepy figure?!."

It seems that Darsana, Patari, Bajra, and Nismara are very frightened to hear their words which means the wandering figures who are in the forbidden forest. In addition, it is not only them who make the atmosphere of the hotel prohibition become spooky. There was a black elder brother whose black was extremely dense, had extremely red eyes, had extremely sharp claws if it preyed.

"Ho?. Don't you miss them?. If you want to see it. I will gladly order them to appear before you." With a creepy smile, as well as an unusual hot atmosphere.

It seemed like such an atmosphere had returned again, where they could feel a very different heat. Surely that was the impact of Arya Susena's outrage that was very excessive.

The deg!.

At that time their bodies were more plastered when they felt unusual hot steam.

"You are such a bitch!. Then I'll check out the high cliff village before they all run away." Bajra, it feels like he misses such an atmosphere. "Of course I won't forget my duty to always seek information first before we move." Far from the bottom of his heart, he felt a longing for such togetherness.

"Then I won't check the situation around this village either. It could be a palace official or a rich man acting arbitrarily." Nismara immediately jumped away from them all.

"Hey!. Nismara's!. Where are you going?. Waitme!. You don't want to go alone without me!." Patari is certainly very afraid if he is there, being under the pressure of his internal energy released by Arya Susena.

The deg!.

It was just Darsana. He was very nervous when Arya Susena looked at him with a very sharp gaze.

"I know your character is like that. But at least for this time can you put it down?. I'm afraid that if someone has a very weak inner strength, he could die instantly because of the pressure you put on him." He could barely speak to say what he was feeling at the time. "Damn!. I don't know why this heat is getting hotter than before." In his heart he began to panic. Though at that time they were just joking to provoke the anger of Arya Susena. "I didn't expect him to be so angry." In his heart was very afraid that Arya Susena would beat him up.

Arya Susena sighed slowly. "Then you come with me."

"Where are you going?."

"To hell."

The deg!.

"You don't say anything that isn't arya!. You really like to make other people emotional !. Though you yourself are too emotional, so that makes us almost die with the heat that you spread!." His impact with a very loud voice even he pointed towards Arya Susena with an extremely furious feeling was overwhelming.

But at that time Arya Susena even laughed at Darsana who still seemed frightened by what she had done.

"Is there anything funny about my words?. So invite your laughter arya?."

"That's it. It's been a while since we've both been looking for more interesting information. Then let's move."

Darsana was silent for a moment listening to that remark. At that time his brain was responding to what Arya Susena had told him.

"What are you daydreaming?. You'll die if you daydream like that." With great ease he said so, and even he immediately moved away from the place.

"Yes, yeah, yeah. Gusti Patih's orders will surely follow." With an irritated mood he said that while paying respect to Arya Susena.

"Aahaha!. You don't have to do that."

Arya Susena was only able to laugh with what she had heard from Darsana. It felt at that moment that they really felt how their previous life was. Feelings of longing for the outdoors, making them increasingly strengthen the relationship that was once established between them.

***

On the other side.

At that moment there was a young man who was staring at the gate towards the forbidden forest. The highlight of his eyes was so sharp, and his feeling at that moment was really very uncomfortable at all.

"So this is called a forbidden forest?. What a wonderful mystical air. Very thick spiritual Eve, it is fitting that no one dared to enter this forest except the swordsman of darkness." That's the information he got from a reliable source. "But I think right now the forbidden forest is empty. I can't feel the air of a human being inside the forest of prohibition right now." With the power he has he can feel the air of one's existence even from a very far distance.

"Arya susena's. Swordsman with the nickname of a thousand faces. I want to see what his real face looks like. I'll challenge him." At least that was what was on the young man's mind.

What will happen next?.

Next.
