Swordsman Without Friends
Blood traitor. (bag2)

The four young elders were still sitting around the fireplace, which was shrinking the flame and leaving only the aroma of roast meat. all the pieces of bush chicken and menjangan grill the hob left only a lump of bone scattered.

The 'Old Hammer' looks to lick his fingers that are still covered with spices and meat oil as if not willing to throw away the good taste left there. he had several times thought to devour all the grilled meat stored from his shirt bag but immediately paled because he felt sorry if the food was as good as that he just spent it.

''A long time ago, maybe two hundred years ago in the martial world there was an event that was very exciting. at that time the Gapura Devil party which was the strongest silat association and was almost able to unite the entire jungle involved a fierce battle against the combination of various white and royal party parties..''

''Reportedly the fight not only became the largest in the history of the martial jungle but also took the lives of tens of thousands of people. the dark sky and dense cloud that hung for almost a month as if to mourn. the smell of blood also the bodies of the victims until it can be smelled up to a distance of thousands of spears away..'' the Frogs of Bankotan began his speech.

''There are those who say that at that time the Gate of Satan was almost defeated but there are also stories that say that the combined party of the white school and the kingdom that almost perished, in short, said., no one knew about the certainty of the outcome of that grand battle..''

''But from the words of our helper lord it can be concluded that in fact the Gapura Devil party only took one step to conquer the entire martial jungle. the founder and supreme leader of the Gapura Devil party at the last moment was about to finish off the leaders of the white stream that was already helpless suddenly felt his power of magic not only slumped sharply but also hurt deeply.!''

The rumbling sound of thunder and thick cloudy that was marching appeared to cover the afternoon sun made the Bedbug Flea momentarily stop the story. ''I think it's better if we continue everything in the hut because it looks like heavy rain is coming soon.I hope., this is not a bad sign..''

Without waiting for a long time everyone had moved into the wooden hut after the previous 'White Tiger Warrior' swept away the former embers of the fireplace and all the rest of the bones of the burned beast.Right be it, not long after that it rained heavily.

'A pair of Ticks and Benalu' sat on two wooden chairs that were near the table. The half-legged pranacitra leaned against the wall of the hut while regulating her exhalation above the bed, while her companion stood by the door keeping watch over the situation outside the hut. With his sharp eyes he could pierce through the greatness of the rain.

''Fortunately, no one was suspicious at that time.they only thought that the head of the Demon Gate had also run out of energy after fighting with dozens of white-flow frontmen for almost three days otherwise, maybe they will recklessly attack and fight their lives with the chairman.until briefly reached an agreement between the Gate of Satan representing the power of the black stream with the silat college dedengkot of the white faction..'' said Kutu Bangkotan connect his story.

''The unwritten content of the agreement was, the members of the Gapura Devil party would no longer come out of his secret territory and wreak havoc in the martial world. on the contrary, as long as there are people who managed to join the Gapura Devil party and get an identifier in the form of a black flag bearing the party emblem, that is how long he is entitled to protection from the Gate of Demons..''

''No matter how heavy the mistakes in the past were, if there was still another party who did not accept then the Gapura Devil party had the right to kill him. even though it was only a verbal agreement, none of the parties had dared to break it.!'' said the Old Benalu who changed his mind.

''In his secret room, the head of the Demon Gate secretly summoned one of the main elders of the party.Among the four main elders, this person was less prominent but the one he trusted the most. in secret the chairman told all the problems that occurred in the big fight and gave orders to his subordinates to investigate the incident secretly..''

''The result of the elder's observation was quite unexpected, because it turned out that the culprit of all the wounds in the chairman were his own two students. please note that the founder of the Gapura Devil party had two students one man another woman.more surprising two other party elders may also be involved in the betrayal..''

Until here Old Benalu stopped for a moment the story. both Pranacitra and the White Tiger Warrior were equally surprised to hear all that. ''The two betrayed elders were once old friends of the same chairman who also had a hand in establishing the Gapura Devil party, even one of the two of them still counted the cousin sister of the party leader.!''

''In his near-death state due to deep wounds and great disappointment due to the betrayal of his own two disciples and friends, he had given the last will to the elder who became his confidant. the chairman told about the secret of the two forbidden places that he deliberately kept close.one was the 'Devil Mushroom Sacred Cave' while the other was the forbidden cave room in the 'Thousand Poisons Valley.!''

''The two caves are closely related to each other, although the higher-ups of the Demon Gate also understand this problem but they do not know where the two caves are located. even though they had known for some time that one of the cave rooms might be in the Valley of a Thousand Poisons but no one dared to confirm it, because who would bet their lives to enter the valley filled with that very poisonous stench..''

''So it was like that., so., the Devil Archway party through his accomplices then tried to incite the martial people so that they go in there with the lure of obtaining heirloom treasures as well as high-level magic relics from silat figures amazing from the past..''

''If it is true that such an heirloom does exist, they just take it when the inventor of the heirloom is already outside the valley.if it is just a figment without evidence, it is only a figment without proof, the death of the silat figures trapped in the valley also did not make the Devil Archway harmed.in fact., an advantage due to the lack of fighters who dared to oppose them like the 'Satan Grave..'' pranacitra muttered as if he could draw a background on why five teachers got trapped there.

Ticks and Benalu glimpsed each other's lyrics in their hearts, ''Otak this limp boy is quite watered down as well.he can be expected.'' while outside of him the Big Bangkotan said again, ''All of that has happened a long time ago.Your five teachers are also dead, so there is no need for you to regret..''

Pranacitra. ''Please allow the two elders to continue with the instructions.'' Old Benalu spoke. ''To cover up as if nothing had happened to him, the chairman and founder of the Gapura Devil party then announced to resign while bequeathing the position of party leader to his two students. this is deliberately done so that there is no excitement and division in the future Gapura Devil party that has a great desire to unite the entire martial world.!''

''Only a few of the higher-ups of the Demon Gate know very well the end of the history of the founder and supreme leader of the strongest black school party. one of them was our helper master who was none other than the trust elder of the chief.from whom we heard all these secret happenings.the chief, was killed horribly in his semifinal chamber..''

''Hehm., actually besides the helper lord and the two traitorous elders, there was still one more party elder.but since the end of the great battle he had already disappeared without a trace. some say this man escaped with very severe injuries, while others say that he was dead with a disintegrated corpse without form..''

''Surprisingly, it sounded crazy, at once very ridiculous are the two elders of the Devil Archway who have betrayed the courage to say that the leader's male student is the son of the founder of his own party who is deliberately kept secret in order to be more awake his safety..''

''Ha., ha., when in fact these two boys and girls were the children of the elders themselves, the result of an affair with their petty mistress who was secretly infiltrated to get the secret of all the science of magic from the chairman.the end of the story., the., they married and had offspring as the successor of the Gapura Devil party.'' concluded Kutu Bangkotan stretch both hands.

''The old beggar who became our helper lord never told us what exactly was in the forbidden cave room in the Thousand Poison Valley, martial arts and other high-level or secret magic.but clearly, you cannot enter that place before being able to cultivate the 'Dark Hell's Pulse' and the 'Blue Nirmala' magic stone' get to the top with the help of the 'Demon Mushroom.!''

While talking, Old Benalu took out a white cloth package from inside his pocket.when opened sprayed a fragrant smell as fragrant as well as making dizziness. tinge of light red blood color met black out from there. looks like a mushroom flower as wide as the palm of the hand. ''This thing in my hand is called the 'Demon Mushroom.!'' close Old Benalu.
