Sanggana Swordsman
1. Sky Rat Swordsman
The ragged-clothed old man continued to chuckle. The iron chains wrapped around his body, hands and feet, did not make him miserable in the slightest. Looks long hair that is white tangled irregularly. His continuous laughter seemed to indicate that he was unconsciously being led to the gate of death.
The old man was escorted by a group of armed men led by Sujibak Lugang, a middle-aged man carrying a sword without a sheath. The man in the mustache was wearing blue clothes. He was the right hand of the ruler of the area, Demang Rubagaya. His greatness like a cat, made him nicknamed the Swordsman Cat Demang.
Unlike Sujibak Lugang who was armed with a sword, his men were armed with flying knives. They continued to be on standby to keep things up and dragged the laughing old man along without any funny incidents.
While the marching residents watched the motorcade, it was unceasingly whispering. Occasionally the screams of the residents sounded rude. Some showed a face of excitement seeing that the dirty old man had been arrested and was about to be executed in the square.
“Kill it, let it kapok!” shouted an old man while throwing a betel leaf he was holding. The betel leaf was only thrown half a distance away from the chained grandfather.
“When you die, sir,” said his wife while patting her husband on the shoulder.
“Oh, yes.”
“Better to be a doll in the square!” yell at the others.
“It's just baked for dinner!” shouted the fat man, as if his body signified that he was eating.
“Mana delicious, Fat!” timpal is a thin citizen.
“Hehehe!” while the grumpy grandfather was still chuckling, as if he was happy to be treated like that.
“How do you feel about dying today, Cake?” ask the bodyguard who walked on the right side of the grumpy grandfather.
“Who is afraid, hehehe!” replied the old man.
Not long after, they arrived at the square. Residents who had been passed, also accompanied to the square. All the work they left behind. They wanted to see the end of the grumpy grandfather episode that day. They each took a place on the outskirts of the square in order to freely see the grumpy grandfather.
The grumpy grandfather was dragged to a large wooden pole that was firmly planted in the middle of the empty land.
“What's wrong, to be put to death like that?” ask a woman to her older neighbor for a few days. His name is Mak Lujias.
“As this story goes,” says the older woman, then shut up.
“Oh.” Mak Lujias mangosteen sign understand, he silently listened with a kusyuk, as if his neighbor was telling a long story. He then rattled. “That's cruel it's Demang.”
Looking at Mak Lujias bells, the neighbor also became astonished, then asked anyway, “Why cruel, Mak Lujias?”
“Ah, you are!” sentak Mak Lujias while patting his neighbor. “The cruelty of Demang bergagahi his own father you call commendable? Where is your human mind, Tuminah?”
“Basic Mak Lujias, ears are never treated. I asked this, he heard that one!” tuminah grunts while leaving Mak Lujias who does have hearing problems.
The other woman just laughed watching Tuminah go to the other side of the square while grumbling.
“Basic Tuminah, straightened out instead he said love dies with the slums. Ih ticklish!” rutuk Mak Lujias.
In the middle of the square, the grumpy grandfather had been put together with a wooden pole with a chain.
“What's your last request, Old Man?” ask Sujibak Lugang.
“I ask to be released alive, hehehe,” replied the gramps.
“Just save your request!” snapped Sujibak.
“Tell Demang, Beggar Maling will not be easy to kill like this, hehehe!” said the old man Kumal.
Hearing the name of the Maling Beggar being called, Sujibak became somewhat surprised. However, then he spat on the ground furiously.
“Don't try to claim I'm a dead man. The Maling Beggar had already died a few years ago. I watched myself Beggar Maling die!” sujibak toilet in front of Grandpa's face.
“Hehehe, the proof is that I am still enjoying my life,” said the gramps.
“Be quiet, Old!” snapped Sujibak. He then stepped away from his grandfather.
Four spears in front of the grandfather turned out to have stood five Sujibak Lugang men who were ready with his flying knives. They'll be aiming for Grandpa's body. The condition made the boisterous sounds of the villagers instantly vanish, they turned tense. Especially when Sujibak Lugang began to shout cue.
“Inhale!” yelled Sujibak and then kept quiet.
“Tahaan!” shouted Sujibak again who was followed by his five men by holding their breath that had been sucked a lot.
The atmosphere is increasingly tense, because everyone knows, after the cue “tahan” is a command execution. Sujibak was also tense. His gaze temporarily looked at the faces of the residents with a twist, as if looking for signs of someone's existence. Meanwhile, the five faces of his men began to redden for a long time holding their breath.
“Shoot!” sujibak Lugang finally shouted.
A seset...!
Along with the leg of the five Sujibak Lugang men because they can breathe again, they also glide his flying knives that have been attached to the fingers. Not just one knife they taped, but one throw at a time three flying knives. Fifteen flying blades shot forth echoing towards the old grubby grandfather's body claiming to be the Mutant Beggar.
Dak!
Along with that, from outside the square flashed a figure dressed all in black. One leg had stepped on one citizen's head as a repulsion while sliding a shield he carried.
“Bolder boy!” maki the old woman whose head was abused by that sudden man.
Trantangs! Comein' up!
The shield made of metal shaped like an earless frying pan, darted quickly dispelling all the flying blades halfway through.
Sujibak Lugang was surprised, his men were surprised, and the residents were surprised by the appearance of a black figure masked in black cloth. While the shield continued to shoot towards Sujibak Lugang. The Demang Cat Swordsman hurriedly leaped into the air dodging the shield attack. Surprisingly, the shield could turn a direction, this time pointing directly at the figure of the Mutant Beggar.
“Wah! Die him!” a man shouted hysterically.
The CTrak!
Amazingly, the thin side of the shield simply swiped the chains wrapped around the Mutant Beggar's body without injuring his old shirt or skin. The black-clothed figure again flashed in the air welcoming his shield.
“Hehehe!” kekeh Beggar Maling saw the appearance of the all-black figure.
The figure dressed in all black was now standing in the middle of the square, not far from the Mutant Beggar who was stripping the remaining twists of chains. Just a pair of eyes alone seemed to be from a black-clothed person. Her clothes were thick and loose, making it hard to guess whether she was a boy or a girl.
“You again, Sky Rat!” hardik Sujibak wrath. “What was your relationship with the old man that you intervened to help him?”
“Hehehe, can a grandson not help his own grandfather? Hehehe!” That said it was the Beggar Maling.
“You can get away a few times, Sky Rat. But this time, I won't let you off the hook again, nor will that crazy grandpa!” sujibak Lugang shouted, apparently he was serious about his words.
“You and your men will not be able to prevent me from just leaving,” said the masked man in a female voice.
“Seraaang!” shouted Sujibak Lugang commando.
Blass!
Some of Sujibak Lugang's men who were about to attack the Beggar Maling, so undo the intention. Because, the grumpy grandfather suddenly vanished by leaving behind only a thick puff of smoke.
The tring!
Meanwhile, using his shield, the mysterious woman nicknamed the Sky Rat Swordsman countered the group of flying knives that attacked him.
Next, the move happens. All the empty-handed and knife attacks were directed at the Sky Rat Swordsman. However, it was seen that those attacks were so easy for the Sky Rat. Although not choosing to strike back against the braggarts, but the presence of a large enough shield makes the Sujibak men hassles.
On one occasion, the masked woman shot into the air to leave. Sujibak who had been observing for a crack, immediately jumped to attack with his sword.
Whuss!
However, before the attack arrived, the Sky Rat Swordsman first shook his shield which created a series of loud winds roaring. Sujibak was unable to dodge, so his body crashed away, but he was still able to land on the ground well.
Furthermore, the Sky Rat Swordsman's body had darted through the air like a slash of arrows leaving the square. A number of flying knives were unable to pursue his body.
“Kejaaar!” yelled Sujibak Lugang Long.
The Sujibak men immediately ventured to chase towards the escape of the Sky Rat Swordsman. However, as quickly as those people chased, they would not be able to catch up to the Sky Rat who had shrewdness in the air. In the end, Sujibak and his men lost the hunt.
Already several times the Sky Rat Swordsman had trouble with the ruler of the area, but he was like a ghost that came at will and left without any significant obstacles. (BH)
