"You guys continue eating I will see the Queen's envoy first," said the city lord to his wife and child, on the other hand, he immediately went out to meet the Queen's envoy.

"The one who started as viscount Adam the city lord of Maple...was given an order by the Queen..." The messenger's voice immediately resounded in the reception room as the city lord entered, and immediately the city lord knelt on one knee while listening to the queen's orders.

"I am Adam Maple, the ruler of Maple City, received an order from the Queen," said Adam to the Queen's envoy.

In this case, the village of Wijaya where Arga reigns is one of them. On a dirt road that seems to be rarely traveled, a soldier riding his horse seems to be speeding toward a village called Wijaya.

"Is there ge in this location??? Why is there only forest along the road!!" The soldier complained as he continued to race his horse toward the village of Wijaya.

"Damn it's been more than two days, but how come the village hasn't been seen yet..."

"To hell with those government employees, did they record the location of the village correctly...!!!" Again complaints were heard from a soldier who rode the lack of a race to the village of Wijaya, but it was clear that at this time the condition of the soldier was not good.

Until a few hours later when the sky was past noon, then the figure of the soldier saw a happy sight. "Finally...is it here!!!" cried the soldier with great relief after almost 3 days he rode to go to Wijaya village.

"Boom...boom...boom...." The sound of a large drum coming from the control tower in Wijaya village immediately shocked the residents.

"Report....there's an intruder...!!" Shouted the soldier on duty at the watchtower...suddenly the soldiers on guard divided the tasks, reported the matter to Mada and and, 5 horsemen immediately rushed out of the village to meet the intruder.
