The Destiny of the Demon Sword
Sea Monster
Day after day has passed on the voyage to the continent of Intibumi. There is no obstacle that impedes the speed of ships in shipping.
The wind blows strong when dusk is engraved with an orange hue that adorns the sky above the ocean. A young man dressed in dark blue stood upright at the end of the bow of the ship that split the ocean. Both of his eyeballs did not move in the middle of the sclera. His gaze continued to focus on the end of the ocean line in front of him.
Suddenly, his eyelids clenched. The young man turned around and left the bow. He smiled at the grandmother waiting for him in the doorway.
“Honey, can I go back to the fairy realm?” pinta Xian Hou suddenly.
Orange did not reply, he immediately grabbed his wife's two cold cheeks.
“Why is your face so pale?” ask Orange.
“I have been in mortal nature for too long. The pure energy I sucked in this realm was not enough to make me last any longer,” Xian Hou said.
“Don't delay it, hurry back! I don't want anything bad to happen to you,” said Orange asking for it.
Xian Hou smiled gently then nodded. Shortly thereafter, he disappeared from sight.
“Hopefully I don't get tired of being on a cruise this time,” murmured then stepped into the room.
Without feeling, it has been more than a month of time taken on a cruise. Saturation, laziness, stiffness, and a sense of urgency all over everyone on board. However, the spirit of the retainers (soldiers and ship crews) never faded. Likewise with the General who seemed radiant looking at nature that was friendly to his voyage. He then went to the deck to approach Jingga and her family.
GEEK, TOK!
Bai Niu who heard it immediately stepped to the front of the door and opened it.
“Goodnight, Miss,” greet General Qing.
Bai Niu was a little flabbergasted at the arrival of the General who was so gracious as to greet her. He smiled back at her and said,
“Goodnight too, General. Please enter! Kak Jingga is waiting.”
“Thank you, Miss.” General Qing directly stepped inside the room.
“It looks like our cruise will be faster than previously estimated. The universe supports us,” General Qing said and smiled broadly.
“Semesta does support our voyage, but under the sea something is lurking,” reply Orange and then throw a jar of wine immediately captured by General Qing.
Glacier, glek!
“Ah, good wine. It felt like I had once gotten from the late General Lie Zhou,” General Qing said turning the conversation around.
“Rubber, Emperor Xiao gave it to me,” reply Orange.
“Did the General prepare to face the attack of sea creatures?” ask Orange back to touch him.
“To be honest, I already knew this was going to happen. I just don't want to look panicked react to it.” General Qing again downed the wine.
Despite trying to be calm, anxiety was still clearly etched on the General's face. He also outsmarted it by continuing to drink wine until it was not restless.
“Can I ask for it again?”
The orange again threw the wine that was immediately captured and downed quickly by General Qing.
“Hiding fear is not the way of knights. We face it together!” jingle then pushed the General out of the room.
“You're right, Young Man. But, it is not this matter that worries me, I am even ready to face my death in this ocean,” General Qing said as he continued to chug down and walk towards the bow of the ship.
“Then what weighs on your mind, General?’ ask Orange to know.
General Qing stopped stepping then turned his head to look at Orange seriously.
“I managed to save many lives but I failed to save my own family,”.
Back Orange gasped to hear it. Regret comes back to draw its heart. He was also speechless unable to chimed in the words of the General.
“You need not feel sorry for me, let this be my path of destiny. You still have your two sisters and grandmother. Guard them!” the General asked for it.
Orange smiled and walked up to the edge of the bow and wrapped both hands in the chest.
“Young People, where is your grandmother?” general Qing asked just to remember it.
“My grandmother has died from my small,” replied Orange quickly.
“Not! I mean the Granny with you.” General Qing frowned looking at Orange seriously.
“Oh, she's not my grandmother, she's my wife,” said Jingga told her.
General Qing widened his eyes hard to believe him. He did not understand how a young man could have a wife who was more worthy of being his grandmother.
“You don't joke, Young man,” said General Qing doesn't trust him.
“We will continue our conversation later. Our guests are very many and will certainly keep us busy dealing with it,” reply Orange directly jumped on the wooden wall of the ship in front of him.
“Prepare, General!” coined.
General Qing immediately ran towards the stern of the ship and told all his soldiers to prepare.
TENGS! TENGS! TENGS!
The bells of the ship are rung signalling the soldier to be on standby in close combat against an opponent who has not shown themselves. Soon, more than 200 soldiers with various weapons had lined up in front of the deck of the ship.
GROARS! THE TRAAK! WOUZZ!
The roar of strange sounds rang out to each other from the black-colored and finned creature on its back leaping aboard the ship.
“Inya why so ugly?” muttered Orange after noticing it.
“Jianhuimie Yuzhou.”
“Switch dance Asura.”
WOUZZ!
The orange leaped and floated above the sea level then danced to shake its sword splitting the strange finned creature that leapt out from the depths of the sea water.
SRETT! SRETT!
There is no significant difficulty for the Orange in slaughtering the creature. However, over time he began to feel astonished to see endless creatures continuously jumping to the surface.
“Damn it! A lot of this strange creature,” annoyed Orange who continues to shake his sword.
“Kakak!” pekik Bai Niu who was no less busy shaking her sword slaughtered the finned creatures from the deck of the ship with Qianmei.
The orange immediately turned its head towards him and was surprised to see the ship that had been completely covered by the finned creature.
“Forwardly, I was busy,” cried Orange reply.
Bai Niu looked annoyed at hearing that. He then asked Qianmei to approach the orange who fought on the water.
SRETT! SRETT! SRETT!
“Kak Jingga, all soldiers were killed by fish,” Qianmei said as she slashed her sword through the finned creatures around her.
Orange was a little surprised to hear it. He who was preoccupied by finned creatures that continued to jump out from the depths of the sea immediately jumped onto the ship to see it.
“Where is General Qing?” ask Orange to Bai Niu.
“I don't know, Brother. All I saw was the body parts of these strange fish,” Bai Niu replied.
Orange then scanned the area of the ship looking for the whereabouts of General Qing who did not see the trunk of his nose.
