Dragon Shadow

While walking quickly towards Ki Wicaksono's forest hut, Candaka kept thinking, why are so many problems befalling him? He just wanted to find his uncle following his mother's last message, but what he encountered instead were various kinds of complicated problems for his life.

"I have to go back to Hut to ask for an explanation from Ki Wicaksono about all this," he said to himself.

Different from before when she easily entered the hut in the forest, this time Candaka got lost in the forest and didn't find Ki Wicaksono's hut. The forests seemed alive because as soon as he entered the path in the forest, the trees behind him blocked the previous entrance.

Suddenly there was a flash of shadow pulling his hand while shouting, "Come on, hold my hand as tightly as possible if you don't want to be swallowed up by this forest."

Candaka, who was still in a confused situation, followed the shadow's suggestion because he started to feel something was wrong with this forest. "Who are you?" he shouted

The shadow didn't answer and it flew faster as if it was flying and grabbed Candaka's hand and dragged her deeper into the forest. From behind, Candaka seemed to see a red dragon flying through the forest which was always moving as if it wanted to swallow them both.

"How can I be helped Dragon?" He thought again while holding the shadow's hand tightly.

Suddenly, from the front, the trees in the forest blocked their way, while from behind, the trees were getting closer and closer.

Byaarr ... Byaaarr ...!

There was a loud sound and a streak of red light seemed to shoot out from the silhouette of this dragon destroying living trees trying to swallow them alive. The trees that looked like they were falling apart were hit by the red light that blinded Candaka's eyes. "This Dragon is extraordinary," he thought.

The shadow earlier brought Candaka deeper and deeper. Gradually the trees that had been alive looked back to their original state. Not yet fully aware of what was happening suddenly his body rose high following the shadow of the Dragon snaking up and ...

Wusssh ... Wusssh ...!

Candaka glimpsed at a glance the air waves that this shadow had released, forming waves that were swirling, driving away all the tree branches and leaves that were flying violently towards them.

Suddenly, it was as if Candaka was thrown high into the sky, freed from the grip of the dragon's shadow. "Heeelllpp ..." he shouted. Even though Candaka is a brave man, being thrown into the sky makes him panic.

Wusssh ... Wussh ... Byaar ... Byaarrr ...!

Candaka heard the sound one after another, suddenly he stopped floating in the sky. From a height he ventured to see what was happening. The shadow of the Red Dragon emits red light which rolls towards the branches and trees which form a giant horned giant.

This giant formed from branches and leaves seemed to swing a giant Sledgehammer that smashed into the ground.

Buuummm! Buuummm! Daaarrr! Daaarrr!

A booming sound accompanied by the sound of sparks similar to lightning flashed towards the red dragon's shadow earlier. However, the shadow nimbly avoided every blow from the horned giant while emitting red rays that tore apart the giant's body but the scattered branches and leaves came together again as if this giant could not be defeated.

From a height, Candaka began to see the shadow that had helped him earlier being pushed down by blow after blow trying to destroy him. The situation was exacerbated by the trees that were originally silent, starting to come back to life, moving towards the dragon's shadow from behind.

"That's the end for me this time," thought Candaka because he also saw the Black Mist moving fast towards them. Unknowingly it was night and the battle between the shadow dragon and the giant had not yet ended.

Candaka closed his eyes and resigned himself to his state when he heard screams. "The Red Dragon descends to Earth". How surprised Candaka was when he saw the shadow of this dragon twisting and flying high through the sky and coming down hard like the palm of a hand hitting the giant so hard that it penetrated the earth.

Baaammm Baaammm! Baaammm!

A booming sound like an explosion ended the giant's resistance earlier.

Suddenly Candaka was pulled back and carried flying towards the village. After dropping Candaka in front of the village inn, the dragon's shadow flew back and disappeared into the darkness before Candaka could thank him.

  • 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
