The Fire Dragon Sword
Mission on Skull Island
"Sir didn't think we'd meet here". A girl greeted Sabrang kindly as Sabrang was about to board a ship bound for Pulau Kranka.
"Ah miss Arkadevi", Sabrang bowed his head in salute.
Arkadevi turned to Wardhana and smiled kindly.
"Mr Wardhana, I've heard many times your greatness is very lucky today to meet in person" Arkadevi bowed his head.
"Miss is too much, my name is not as good as the chief of Eagle Eyes" Wardhana smiled forcedly.
"Sorry your master is not allowed on this ship" a guard confronted Sabrang.
"Sorry our master just wanted to see our friend" Wardhana tried to convince the guard.
"Today the island of skulls is closed for a visit, come again a few days ahead" The guard drove Sabrang away with a hostile face.
"Sorry their master is my acquaintance, let them join my company" Arkadevi walked up to the guard and gave the guard some silver pieces.
His face instantly turned friendly, "If the lady who asked me won't get in the way, please enter sir".
Sabrang nodded and walked inside the ship followed by Wardhana behind him.
"You know him Prince?" Wardhana whispered to Sabrang.
"Oh yes, my uncle met him a while ago".
"You must be careful with him, he is the leader of the famous cunning Eagle Eyes group".
Sabrang scrunched his forehead "I mean uncle?".
"Eagle's eye is a group that always moves behind the scenes. They don't care about the information they get for good or vice versa, anyone who can afford to pay a large amount will they follow".
Sabrang nodded slowly listening to Wardhana's explanation.
"You better not get too close to them Prince".
Before long someone approached Sabrang "Sorry our master invited you to eat together".
Wardhana scrunched her forehead and turned to Sabrang.
Sabrang gave a sign to accept Arkadevi's invitation.
"Okay sir, please show me the way".
The warrior nodded and invited Sabrang and Wardhana to follow him.
***
"Welcome sir, please sit down" Arkadevi greeted Sabrang and Wardhana who stepped up to his desk.
"Thank you miss" Wardhana lowered her head.
It looks like the old swordsman also welcomed the arrival of Sabrang.
"I heard that your companion was wounded, and I was very sorry to hear him" Arkadevi looked at Sabrang softly.
"Ah miss there is no need to worry about the elder Bahadur taking care of her, she just needs to rest some time to eliminate the effects of the poison".
"Thank God, I'm glad to hear it" Arkadevi smiled sweetly.
Wardhana was more silent and occasionally noticed Arkadewi's movements. He best understood the risks associated with the Eagle's Eye, on the one hand will get a big advantage because the information obtained Eagle eyes are very accurate but on the other hand they will grip like an eagle gripping its prey if it feels no longer profitable.
"Then what are your needs on Pulau Kranka?" Arkadewi's question this time made Wardhana react.
"Maybe our needs are the same as what miss is looking for" Wardhana smiled meaningfully.
"Mr Wardhana is smart, I can't hide my plans in front of you".
"Is this related to the withdrawal of troops from the Duchy of Rogo geni?" Arkadevi looked at Wardhana.
Wardhana smiled without answering Arkadewi's question.
"If you look at the facilities you get on this ship and the price to be paid to get help from Eagle Eyes it seems that paying you is not an ordinary noble".
Arkadevi was a little surprised to hear Wardhana's words, although he tried to cover up his shocked countenance but Wardhana was able to catch Arkadewi's anxiety due to his statement.
"It seems I'm a little tired today, I'll excuse you sir and I'm sorry if our service is less pleasing". Arkadevi lowered his head and left without waiting for a reply from Sabrang or Wardhana.
"Uncle...." Sabrang tried to ask Wardhana for an explanation for what happened.
"Have you noticed if they get the best service on this prince's ship? even with one word, Miss Arkadewi, the guard of the ship let us come.
Seeing their gurgles plus Miss Arkadewi go down directly is definitely not a random person who hired them this time but I do not understand what they are looking for here".
"Are they that great uncle? even they yesterday asked for my help to save the head of the green bat Sect". Sabrang felt that the abilities of some eagle-eyed swordsmen were not very high.
"As the servant said earlier they always move behind the scenes, they will never be willing to intersect with any Sect. If they were in trouble with the other sects then they would use someone else's hands to clean it up like they did with the prince yesterday".
"So they're using me?" Sabrang laughed a little.
Wardhana nodded softly without daring to look at Sabrang.
"Prince, this ship will be leaning on the Island of skulls tomorrow morning. We have to hurry to find mada and then get out of here. Dealing with Eagle Eyes is always troublesome, my gut feeling is that whoever hired them will harm us". Wardhana took a deep breath.
***
"You know him, don't you uncle?" Arkadevi turned towards the old warrior who was always loyal to be beside him.
"Almost all the warriors who had ever come into contact with the Malwageni kingdom must have known him. An investigator nicknamed the sleeping Dragon of Malwageni.
It seems like the job this time is not easy chief, Wardhana is the one I have wanted to avoid the most all along. His insights and tactics of war were terrifying".
Arkadevi nodded slowly he understood very well the experience that Brojoseno, his personal bodyguard who had served with his father for decades.if Brojoseno said it is better to avoid Wardhana then that is the best option at this time.
"I don't know what they're looking for on Skull Island but I hope we don't deal with them uncle".
"Then who are we looking for the chairman?".
"A young uncle, son of a former Duke in the Duchy of Joyo geni bermana Ronggo. The one who pays us wants him dead or alive. At first I thought it was an easy job for a big fee because people who had been exiled on the island of skulls were considered dead, but everything became complicated with the presence of Wardhana. Be careful uncle, the Prince has a very high knowledge even without the Fire Dragon in his hands".
"I understand the chairman" Brojoseno bowed his head in salute.
***
When the night was late and almost everyone was resting saw two people running to settle into the forest.
They walked quickly but remained with their hearts while occasionally stopping to see the surroundings.
"How far is it, sir?". Ronggo asked while adjusting her breathing.
"If my estimation is not wrong after passing through the hill, it is the location of his dermagna. I hope my estimate is correct".
"Come master" As Ronggo was about to step up, Mada held him back.
"Wait son, from here their guard starts a little tight we see the situation first".
Ronggo back down obeyed Mada's orders.
"Son, if you want to help me like it's enough to get here, I don't want you to get in trouble. Go home, I'll go alone" Mada whispered to Ronggo.
Ronggo was silent for a moment as if thinking of something "I'll take you up to the ship".
Mada smiled looking at Ronggo who continued to pay attention to the circumstances around her.
"I know deep inside you love your homeland too" Mada muttered inwardly.
"Let's continue" Mada got up and started walking slowly followed by Ronggo behind him.
"Stop right there!!!" Someone's voice shocked Mada and Ronggo.
