The Mute of The Demon Cave
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.
The Old Man with the Smell of Death
Ki Besat never made a scene or did anything to disturb the people. He just walked around with his two chests. That was all.
So far, only trouble has come his way. People were curious about the contents of the chests and tried to find out. As he did with Jagat, Ki Besat refused and ended up in a street fight.
So far, no one has been able to defeat him, and as a result, he has become the hunted man for martial artists who want to make a name for themselves.
The Old Man with the Smell of Death. That was the nickname people gave him. He rarely appeared in crowds and always walked in the forest's solitude. Just like yesterday when he met the Mute for the first time.
He didn't even recognize Jagat's figure behind the Mute. Ki Besat seemed to have forgotten his memory and did not recognize anyone.
