Early in the morning, Candaka left the inn intending to go to Ki Wicaksono's Forest Lodge. He chose the morning that was still dark because he was worried that his dream would come true, but hope was just hope. As soon as he left the inn, he was immediately confronted by a group of bandits who had ganged up on him before.
"Hey dirty young man, you are called Boss ...!!!" exclaimed one of the bandits whose face was bearded
"Don't fight then you will be safe!" he continued.
An intention arises to use the style that Bram just taught him, but his intention is abandoned because Candaka is also curious to find out who the boss of these bandits is, who really wants to meet him.
Candaka followed the group of bandits to a luxurious building in this village. The yard with a fish pond and beautiful garden makes Candaka feel that he is not entering the house of the bandit boss.
The Beard continued to walk towards the living room of this building. From a distance, a figure dressed in black could be seen, but this figure covered most of his face so that he could not be recognized. But from her appearance Candaka guessed that the figure of this bandit boss was a woman.
His suspicions came true the moment this boss started reprimanding him. "Are you the one named Candaka, who is reportedly looking for your uncle Syailendra?"
"You know where your uncle is now?" asked this woman again.
"What connection do you have, madam asking about my uncle?" asked Candaka politely.
Unexpectedly, this bandit boss was even angry with him. "Don't call me madam, I'm not that old...!!!"
"Then what should I call you, while Madam's face is completely covered," continued Candaka, not wanting to be outdone.
"Madam again ... Madam again ... I told you not to call me Madam!" the bandit boss's voice was getting higher and higher, making the Beard retreat in fear.
"So what should I call madam?" asked Candaka again. He didn't care about the anger of this bandit boss because he felt it was right to call this woman Madam.
"Grrrrr.... call me Dear, Sister, Miss, or whatever as long as it's not Mrs or Madam ... Are you understood?" This time the bandit boss was really angry, making Candaka who was calm before feel a little nervous.
"Yes Miss, I'll just assume you're younger so you won't get angry anymore," answered Candaka after feeling calm again.
The Bandit Boss calmed down a bit after Candaka didn't call her Madam anymore. "I asked earlier, do you know where your uncle is?"
Candaka is very annoyed with the treatment of this jerk Miss. But he knew that anger would not solve his problems, it could even harm him.
"I'm also looking for my uncle, so I still don't know where he is?" he said.
“Your uncle owes this clan and has not been paid. I've called the old man here to pay off his son's debt but he refuses to come. Hufffhh…” annoyed this bandit boss.
“What did you say? My uncle is Ki Wicaksono's son?" asked Candaka full of surprise. Why didn't Ki Wicaksono tell him when he found out he was looking for his uncle.
"So pity of you ...." mocked the bandit boss.
“It turns out that you were lied to by that old geezer. Hmmmnn ... How about you just cooperate with me?” she offered.
"I don't want to work with criminals like you. Cuiiihhh!!!” Candaka, who felt lied to, got even angrier.
"Why are you angry with me. You should be mad at that old man. I've been kind enough to offer you a job!” Take it easy, this bandit boss responds to Candaka's anger.
"If you don't want to work with me, then go there and find the old man and tell him to bring his son here to pay off the debt!!!"
The Bandit Boss waved his hand as a sign of ordering his men to take Candaka out of the room.
Latest Chapter
Exotic Creatures of the Night
Jayanti took the lead, guiding them into the depths of the Forbidden Forest. Because Kumalasari had joined the group with a heavy load of supplies, they were forced to head toward Dragon Valley via the overland path. Jayanti could not guarantee that the portals she usually frequented could safely transport all these supplies to their destination."Watch your step... many climbing vines have grown in this forest recently; they will coil around your legs if you so much as brush against them. Look closely—these plants are marked by leaves that glow in the dark," Jayanti warned."I’ve passed through this forest in the darkness before, Yanti, but these plants weren't here. Why are these dangerous things growing now?" Candaka asked."It’s due to the influence of the Black Dragon’s demonic aura, which spread throughout the Forbidden Forest the moment he was released from the Black Mist," Jayanti replied.Sure enough, the path ahead of them was brightly illuminated by the shimmering glow of t
Dragon Valley or Golden Dragon City?
"We have arrived, Brother... I’ll take my leave now. My task is done, and I must report back to Grandfather," Jayanti said after they reached the edge of the Forbidden Forest in the blink of an eye."Wait, Yanti... I actually need your help to take me to Dragon Valley. There is a great secret I must ask your grandfather about, and I have a message to deliver from someone I once knew. But I’ve promised Kumalasari I would escort her to the capital. I'm torn... do you have any suggestions?" Candaka asked, stopping the girl before she could vanish."If you wish, you can bring your friend along to Dragon Valley on the way to the Golden Dragon City. From the Dragon City, you can simply ascend toward the cliffs of the Golden Dragon City. That way, you won't encounter many obstacles on your journey," Jayanti suggested."But Mala is an ordinary human. How could she possibly survive or even enter Dragon Valley?" Candaka asked in bewilderment. He wondered if the girl thought Mala was a Dragon Ch
The Beautiful Red Dragon Reappears
Candaka had momentarily forgotten his intention to check on Gayatri, but seeing Kumalasari’s sheer enthusiasm to leave the village for the capital made him abandon his plan to head into the Forbidden Forest."We will leave tomorrow morning. Let’s prepare and get enough rest first. If possible, bring plenty of supplies; it’s a long journey to the capital. Ever since the Black Dragon emerged, many regions have fallen under the control of bandits and strange creatures we know nothing about," Candaka advised."Whatever you say, Brother. Mala will go downstairs to buy some food for our journey," she replied before leaving him.Candaka made use of the time to open the Red Dragon Manual. Just like the White Dragon Manual, this book contained several techniques that seemed to move on their own as he looked at them. This manual must be enchanted with magic, allowing it to demonstrate martial arts movements that I can learn instantly.Psst... psst...Suddenly, a whisper reached Candaka’s ears,
The Dream’s Mystery Revealed
Candaka spun around the moment he heard that familiar voice. He was overjoyed to encounter her within the world of his dreams. "Princess Zhian! Thank you for entering my dream to help me."It was indeed Zhian. As usual, the beautiful girl was dressed in the feminine attire of the era; there was no sign of the warrior who had effortlessly taken down five young fighters at Isyana’s home. She seemed largely indifferent to Candaka’s enthusiastic greeting."Since when did I become a Princess? And besides, who said I was here to help you? I am merely observing. If you cannot unravel the meaning of this dream, you will sleep forever in the waking world. I have no right to interfere with your visions, for this is a destiny that will shadow you always," Zhian said sharply."Don’t be so cynical, Princess... You are a Princess in my heart because you possess the grace of royalty," Candaka flirted. He knew he had to get Zhian on his side to uncover the mystery of this dream. Making her feel flatt
The Subconscious Realm
Candaka’s heart remained conflicted as he debated whether to check on Gayatri. Two weeks had passed without a single word from her. Has Yatri forgiven me yet? How is she doing now?Without realizing it, his feet led him back to the village inn. I should see Mala first to let her know I’ll be heading home with her. I left earlier without even saying goodbye.Candaka hurried to his room, but the girl was nowhere to be found. Where did she go? I didn’t see her in the dining hall either. Perhaps she got bored and went for a stroll through the village. I’ll just wait for her here and get some rest. Before he knew it, the young man drifted off, slipping once more into the world of dreams.This time, the dream was different. Candaka found himself in a bustling city. It appeared to be a major trade hub, a crossroads for commerce between various cities and villages. Am I in the capital? Why am I in the Golden Dragon City? I haven't even begun studying the Red Dragon Manual, so this can’t be a
The Story of Zhu Fei
Zhu Fei was one of Isyana’s three Personal Bodyguards. He remained fiercely loyal to her safety; even when Isyana was under Asmawati’s magical spell, the three of them continued to watch over her from a distance. To maintain his cover, Fei lived on the slopes of the Three-Finger Mountains, ensuring no warriors—especially those from the Black Dragon organization—would discover him. Fei was a native of Arkandria, just like Zhian, who now never left Isyana’s side.Fei had observed Gayatri and Ki Wicaksono for a long time during their stay in the Forbidden Forest cottage. However, the young man always kept his distance to ensure his presence was not detected by Ki Wicaksono, who was a formidable Dragon Warrior. Over time, Fei found himself falling in love with Gayatri’s beauty and grace. He had been stationed around the Forbidden Forest because Isyana frequently visited Ki Wicaksono. Meanwhile, the area around the Black Mist Village was assigned to Zhian, who secretly followed her Princes
