The End of the World - Story I
Travel Tigris: Three Mahardika

...~ ◊ ~...

I (Panthera Tigris) and the rest of the Hayawan Warrior Silver Army were walking along the coast along the East Ape Bay. Along the coastline, I felt the immense energy from the Teleportation Magic surrounding the Buana Groaning Forest that was on the other side of the shoreline.

The forest with the misty giant trees reminded me of the memories of the past when I lived happily in it, without knowing that there was chaos and war in the world beyond the forest.

A few days have passed since the landing of our ship on this land, but we have not found a small gap as a way to return to our hometown.

Having no clue, we decided to end this observation mission and set sail again at dawn tomorrow. As planned, our next destination was to sail after the departure of Fleet III where Arctos, Bovin, and Miss Bubalis were there.

In a cold and silent night, where the wind blows quiet bring the waves dancing. The moon seemed to glow brightly, with the sparkling of the accompanying stars. I was sitting on a high rock, trying to meditate again.

When the Silver power that was within me rose 5 years ago, it was too big for my small body. Therefore, Emperor Akbar took out and released some of that Silver energy from inside my body, in order for me to survive in that monstrous energy.

However even though the amount of Silver energy was already adjusted to my body's capacity, that energy would continue to regenerate all the time. Therefore, the Emperor taught me how to control the regeneration of the Silver energy so as not to re-burden my body. The trick is to meditate to balance my body and mind in order to stabilize the regenerating Silver energy.

The Emperor said that this Silver power has 3 main elements: the Creator Element, the Preserver Element, and the Smelter Element. To be able to control this Silver power completely, I need to be able to balance those three elements.

If I use the power of one of the Silver Elements without stability and mastery over the other Silver Elements, it will be fatal to the body as well as the environment around me.

Just like in the Battle of the Western Front 5 years ago, I had unknowingly awakened my Silver power and used the Smelting Element to destroy all my enemies.

Because only with one Element without any barrier from other elements, then the attack of my Smelter that spread too much energy Silver to destroy everything near me to threaten my own life. *(Episode 19)

In order not to be repeated, I must continue to practice in order to control the power of Silver which is like a double-edged sword to myself. Meditating and connecting with nature is one of the answers.

After the first time I had achieved true meditation, I could feel that the entire realm of this world was bound to this Silver energy along with two other energies I did not know.

Since nature is also bound to this power, it is easy for me to synchronize with nature through meditation. This silver power was already like a crutch for nature in this world. And that would increase the capabilities of the Creator Element and the Preserver Element that I have.

Now I am still in a mode full of concentration of self-disconnecting to the subconscious in the turbulence of natural energy that surrounds. In the midst of this meditation, I felt not only the turbulent Silver energy within my body. But it also felt two other powerful energies, the Noble Golden energy and also the Jelita Amethyst energy.

It was as if my body and mind were swept away in the three great powers of color, which brought me into a space of peace and emptiness with the brilliant Golden and Gembayung kirana in the expanse of the Great Silver.

In a soothing panorama, there are three figures standing right in front of. The luster of the Three Colors of Mahardika emanated from the three authoritative figures.

“Salam Putri Perak!” greet the first figure with the glow of Lembayung that surrounds it. She is a beautiful woman who is graceful and charming.

“Panthera Tigris, adopted daughter of Khan Panthera: Shimha the Lion of Predators. Your birth we have been waiting for,” said the second figure with a Glorious Golden luster. He is a handsome and handsome man full of dignity.

“Mastery of your meditation has been very good, little Tiger. You managed to fully unite nature with body and mind,” said the last figure who looked so familiar with the full luster of the Silver flickering. It was Emperor Akbar.

“Amperor Akbar!” myrag. “What really happened? How did I suddenly get here?”

“Ten easy, Tigris. We only stopped by for a moment in your meditation to talk to you about something" replied the Emperor.

“Before that, it would be nice to introduce ourselves to this beautiful Tiger is not it?” said the woman Lembayung.

“Ah, of course. Don't know then no dear. Isn't that right?” sahut the Golden man.

“Alright, Tigris, I will introduce who exactly the three of us are. Maybe you don't really know me from the stories and fairy tales of the past. For that, introduce:

We are the Three Sovereigns who are the sustainers of the World. The man is the Golden Emperor of the Ruler of Bumantara, and the woman is the Empress Ametis the Ruler of the Ocean, and I am the Silver Emperor the Ruler of Bentala.”

In my meditation all along, I have known that not only is the Silver Emperor's energy overshadowing the entire realm in this world, but there are also two other forces and energies. That is the energy of gold sparkle like precious metals and violet sunbathe like Ametis stone.

I could not believe that all the owners of the Three Colors of Mahardika: Glorious Gold, Great Silver, and Jelita Amethyst along with the supporting powers of his world, were now standing right in front of me. Lupus and Arctos must have been envious of hearing the story of my meeting with these Three World Lords.

“La-Lantas A-What do you want all to talk to me about?” tanyaku stammered while trembling in front of these three big figures.

“We want to talk about the reopening of the Teleportation Magic that enveloped the Buana Groaning Forest and the Silver Palace that was inside,” replied the Maharaja.

“Reopening? So all this time...

“Yes, it all turned out to be the work of both of them. I can't stop thinking about what mess they've caused because of all this,” grumbled Emperor Akbar.

“Hey, Akbar! You should be thanking us, because we both have been painstakingly trying to fill the vacancy of your position during your departure in the last 2000 years,” said the Maharani responded.

“True once! If we do not do all that, there will definitely be greater chaos,” said the Maharaja. “Again that is your territory of power and responsibility. You should thank us for helping and sacrificing our precious energy for your beloved Nation.”

“Alright~ Alright~ I'm very grateful to you two, old friends,” said Emperor Akbar resigned by sticking his palms in front of his face facing towards the other two people.

I-I really do not understand how to respond to the words and conduct of these three Sovereigns before me. Their attitude seems too ‘ mediocre’ behind all their authority.

“What is your purpose for installing that Teleportation Magic?” my many.

“Of course the main goal is to avoid the area of the Buana Groaning Forest and all its contents from the Slavery Magic performed by the Queen of Santika with the help of the Evil Spirit Niskala,” replied the Maharaja. “Although the Witchcraft of Slavery has now been abolished, there are still Evil Spirits that pose a threat. That's why we haven't been able to open it.”

“Good. We've wasted too much time. Let's just continue what we were trying to reach you this time, Tigris,” Emperor Akbar exclaimed.

“Our goal is to ask for your help to deliver important news related to the current state of the world across the forest to the Khan and Hayawan Nation who are still in the forest,” added the Maharani.

“But how can I do it if Teleportation Magic still envelops the entire forest?”

“We will give both of us strength to you for a while. That power you can use to open your way to the Forest of Groaning Buana,” replied the Maharaja.

“Alright if so. I will do it with pleasure!” seruku happy. I can finally go back to my hometown after a long time. And I can't wait to feel the rigors of the Maharaja's Gold and the power of the Maharani Amethyst. I hope that the power of that gift doesn't cause any side effects to my body.

“Your time is not much, because now the Evil Spirits and their army of Perverted Humans have moved to attack Songar Island which is the only safe area for you,” said the Emperor Akbar.

“Tell all the events that you experienced in this world outside the forest to the Khan and ask them to wage war by helping against the Evil Spirits and his army from behind before they depart from the Pier North of the King of Lazy,” said the Maharaja.

“Sorry we can't talk to you any longer, pretty tiger. Now is the time for you to take on a new task,” said the Maharani. “Rush, for the power we have given you must be used immediately and you will be taken out of your body. If not, then your body will be destroyed because it cannot withstand the Three Powers of Mahardika at once.”

After that last word, my feathers shimmered Silver, Gold, and Amethyst mixed. The beautiful expanse along with the three figures that were before me had now disappeared and vanished into shimmering details.

Instantly I woke up from my meditation with still visible light shining from my feathers. Realizing that, I then rushed to run across the boundary of the Buana Groaning Forest on the other side of the beach.

Running fast through the sand of the beach that stretches. Then a row of dense trees was greeted which showed that I finally managed to enter the boundary of the Buana Forest.

After that the light in my feathers slowly dimmed, leaving behind only a silver light that illuminated the dark dense forest.

With this, I was finally able to return to my hometown after a long time away from leaving it. I also rushed back to climb the top of the mountain, where Hayawan Village and Silver Palace were at the end.
