In the midst of political intrigue and warfare during the founding of the Majapahit Kingdom, Jagat Wengi, a cunning and individualistic 25-year-old book thief, takes center stage. As he navigates the treacherous landscapes of both the martial arts world and the royal court, Jagat Wengi undergoes a remarkable transformation from villain to Anti-Hero. Torn between conflicting loyalties and a quest for redemption, he becomes known as “The Mute of The Demon Cave” after a fateful encounter leaves him voiceless. Armed with secret arts and fueled by revenge, Jagat Wengi embarks on a perilous journey to seek justice against those who betrayed him. Blending elements of fantasy, including magic, mysticism, and local myths, this historical fiction offers an enthralling tale of power, sacrifice, and the relentless pursuit of goodness in a world steeped in darkness.
There have been many reports of people mysteriously disappearing. Especially warriors. No trace of their bodies or corpses could be found.
The two sects, the White Sect and the Black Sect were in an uproar. Each accused and blamed the other.
Badil and Wingga set out to gather information after receiving their first mission from the Mute.
Yes, they had become his followers after the battle against Ki Besat. Their task was only to gather information without having to do anything.
Of course, they enjoyed this job because it allowed them to fulfill their mission of learning martial arts and avenging the Mongols.
The Mute could not move freely in the community because of his speech impediment.
So they moved back and forth. From one village to another to gather all the necessary information.
After completing his task, the Mute would wait in the cave, which Wingga used as a base when he took Badil.
