Chapter 4: Sword In The Stone

Satria held the hilt of the sword in his hand, and tried to pull it. "Eh?" When he first tried to pull it, Satria felt that some kind of force was resisting him to pull it. The stronger he tried to pull, the stronger the repulsive energy from the sword. It was as if this sword was repelling Satria.

"Haaaahhh ..." Satria shouted and poured all of his newly acquired En power into the sword. The sword responded and sucked in all the En that Satria drained.

After a few seconds, "Haaah ... Haaaah ... Haaahh ... (Satria is exhausted)". Satria felt he was very tired, more tired than when he had not awakened. Satria fell his hand apart from the hilt of the sword and his body falled on top of the dragon's head.

"What sword is this?" Satria felt his vision dim, and slowly darkened, until he finally fainted. After Satria passed out, a vortex like a Gate appeared not far from his body.

From inside the Gate slowly emerged an old figure, with a white beard, holding a staff, wearing a white robe and a witch's hat. If Satria woke up he would have recognized this old man. Because this old man is a figure Satria met when he was a child.

The old man walked slowly around the sword, then looked at Satria. "You shouldn't be here son". Then the old man turned to the figure beside the rock, "Who would have thought you fell here, my friend".

The old man then walked down slowly and approached the corpse of the mysterious man Satria had met. "Haahhh (sigh), you shouldn't cross the line ..."

Then the old man looked at the writing on the stone.

"?"

The old man recognized this handwriting, the writing belonging to his friend . then read the message on the stone "Whoever reads this, I just want to convey that I ..." The old man continued to read it until the end.

"Haahhh ... I don't know, are you lucky to end up here, so you don't have to feel the lies of this world anymore, but looking at the messages you wrote, it seems you don't regret your death here, As a form of respect from me for the last time, I'll make a grave. you deserve. " The old man swung his staff, and a beam of light enveloped his friend's body.

A large hole was formed, the man's body was buried there, a pile of earth piled it up, and formed various forms of swords, until they turned into a shape like a temple. And moved his friend's handwritten stone to the side of the tomb door. Then above the temple door, he wrote his friend's name in the language of his friend's homeland.

After doing all that, the old man walked back to Satria again, waved his staff, and a Gate appeared around Satria's body. When the Gate disappears, Satria is no longer there.

The old man then looked at the sword. Then it kicked the staff against the dragon's body. In an instant the dragon corpse turned into a stone statue in the shape of a dragon. The old man then opened the Gate and left from there.

Under a tree, near Crystal Mine Mountain No.57, lies a young man, a ray of sunlight shining on the young man's face. The young man slowly opened his eyes.

Note: Crystal Mine No.357 I changed to Crystal Mine No.57

"Aghhh?"

Satria felt the sun glare in his eyes, "Where is this? Agh… ", Satria still felt a little dizzy in his head. He tries to remember what happened last time, When Satria tries to remember he is shocked and immediately realizes that he was previously trapped in a cave and tried to pull the sword from the dragon's head, but now he's outside, under the tree "I'm Free?"

"I've also recovered from En exhaustion and dryness."

Satria stood up and looked around, he saw that there were many trees around him, and not far from him, Satria could see a mountain not far from him. "This mountain? Isn't this Crystal Mine Mountain No.57."

Satria immediately ran towards the mountain, immediately he saw a group of people standing outside the door of the cave. "Thank goodness they are still here". Satria immediately ran over to the group of miners. Mining Team Leader Wang Hu saw Satria walking towards them. Another group of miners looked at Satria and smiled.

"Wow ... Are you safe too?"

"How can you emerge from the forest?"

"Are you hurt?"

Various questions left the group of miners who survived, Wang Hu who saw this, immediately walked towards Satria.

"What's your name, son?"

Satria who heard the leader ask him immediately replied "Report sir, I am Satria from Tenth Team"

Wang Hu immediately looked at the paper in his hand and looked for the name Satria in Tenth Team, he then marked it. Then look at the name Joko, who is a team with Satria.

"Tenth Team, How about Joko in your team?"

"Mr.Joko ... He ... He ... He died in a landslide in the cave ..."

"Then how do you get out of the cave and appear in the forest? Did you find any other way in the cave besides the entrance here? "

"I don't know for sure sir, when the earthquake I ran with Mr.Joko, then Mr.Joko who was in front of me was hit by a landslide that blocked the road, I decided to return to the excavation site, when I was there, the ground where I stood collapsed, and I fell into a lake at the bottom of the cave, there I fainted and suddenly was in the forest"

Satria hide about the discovery of corpses, dragons, and swords in the cave, he was afraid that the bamboo scrolls he got would be taken by the team leader.

"?" Leader Wang felt confused, is this young man lying?

"Are you sure you are unconscious, and don't know how you were in the forest?"

"I really don't know sir, when I woke up I was already there"

"Okay, save your report for later, we'll still wait here for a few more minutes until the rescue team arrives, then we'll be right back."

After a few minutes, a group of people in special uniforms came from the direction of the Gate, Leader Wang, met the Rescue Team and handed over the list of missing persons. Afterwards they talked a few things.

Satria saw the Rescue Team, which was carrying a lot of medical equipment, and various small transportation equipment.

After Leader Wang spoke with the Rescue Team, a group of Rescuers carried the medical boxes over to Satria and the others.

"Are you hurt?"

Satria shook his head, then the rescue team passed him and asked every miner who survived, those who were injured immediately handled, given first aid and treated.

After the inspection, the surviving miners were escorted back to the Gate. Meanwhile, Leader Wang was still with the Rescue Team.

Outside the First Sanctuary in front of the Guild's Pisau Merah Gate, the Gate that was originally red turned blue and a group of miners including Satria came out of the Gate,

"So, its that's true, En slowly weakened upon exiting the Sanctuary, even though it was very little ..."

According to the experts, the En that was obtained by the Hunters would slowly weaken when they left the Sanctuary for a long time, even those who had not entered the Sanctuary for years had the possibility of losing their En power from their bodies. Meanwhile, when they returned to the Sanctuary, En would slowly re-enter their bodies.

"All!!! Please report back to the Administration Staff, after which you are all allowed to go home "

Satria slowly walked along with the other group of miners, after recording their respective reports, Satria walked out of the Guild Building.

Satria saw various high buildings, outside the city which was dark, but still bright with various lights on every street, building and various other ornaments.

Satria also saw many people walking on the streets, many flying vehicles and passing through the city crowd.

"Yeah ... I'm Back"
