ARYA MAHESA
Masks

The two sect heads immediately stood up and turned to Arya.

"Sir master!" Answer them simultaneously.

However, the two became misbehaved when they saw Arya staring at them with a face of astonishment. Realizing the awkwardness, the two looked at each other and then turned to Arya awkwardly.

"A-what ... bi-can k-we, help?!"

Although nervous, Lamo ventured first to speak, considering he had spoken well with Arya before.

Afraid that if Salu said it first, it could be the last thing he heard. Because Lamo knew very well that the mouth of Salu who was next to him at this time, was a little out of control.

"Mr Lamo, look." Arya looked at Lamo with a hint of hesitation. Finally he began to explain his point.

"You are the Sect most responsible for this incident! Did Mr Lamo already realize that?"

Lamo was silent for a moment.Now, suddenly cold sweat soaked all over his body. He did not understand why Arya was accusing her of being the most responsible. Of course here, he also felt a victim.

If the one who said that to him was someone else, then Lamo would definitely be instantly furious. But, if someone like Arya were to say it, of course it was another story.

As a swordsman, dying in a fight was not at all scary for Lamo. At least that's what he believed all along.

However, seeing how Subu and the others died, Lamo really doubted his current principles of short-sightedness. At least, if now he did have to die, then he wanted to die with a whole body in order to be buried.

This young man in front of him killed many people very easily and left only part of their heads. The death that completely undermined the old man's principle of shortness.

"Tu-tu-tuan Pe-swordsman! Pardon me. T-t-ttapi—" Lamo's words, now more and more stammering.

Luckily Bai Fan heard and realized all that. Looking at Lamo and Salu who were standing trembling in front of Arya, Bai Fan became unbearable to the two.

"Chairman Lamo. The point of this young swordsman is, Your sect has been infiltrated by traitors, this is where the problem begins. That's why Arya still ties them there!"

The eyes of the two turned to look at the few people who were wearing red and white masks, apparently still standing in their place without being able to move.

"Young men want you to realize that... "

Begin Bai Fan narrating how Arya initially suspected the members of the Ghost Valley Sect. After Bai Fan's explanation ended, Lamo and Salu also finally understood that, using the mask as a symbol of membership of a sect, it turned out to have a very fatal weakness.

Other people or even enemies would easily enter and infiltrate to spy on the sect. The proof, when they removed the masks, was that there was nothing they recognized among those people.

Lamo and Salu recalled that their wounds were also inflicted by some warriors from the Skull Valley Sect who wore red masks.

Bai Fan also explained why that person still had not moved. That was because, they worked not for any Sect. The traitor who is still in Arya's custody is paid directly by the Oldenbar Society to betray all sects.

In other words, in the five sects that were involved in the war right now, had already been infiltrated by traitors.

Unfortunately, when Arya told them that the Oldenbar guild Headquarters that was a few hills away from there had already been destroyed, they looked uneasy.

Arya who had already learned that there were still spies left among the people of the Ghost Valley sect, instantly noticed it.

Lamo was surprised to realize everything. It seems that all this time he felt he had been too careless to not take into account until there.

"Chairman Salu! It's better whatever's on your head right now, you're putting it off!"

The Sacred Lake Sect Chief who had already walked those few steps, turned around. "Master Bai! If what you say is true, then my sect is now in danger!" his protest.

Lamo nodded in agreement. "Mr Bai. What Salu said was true. " Lamo tried to defend his friend. "I think it's best, now he's back at his sect to clean up those intruders!" Added.

Bai Fan nodded in disapproval.

"So how do you tell which ones are intruders and which ones are not, considering that your sect must also have thousands of warriors in it, can you?"

Salu's eyes and mouth widened, he was about to reply but there was no exact word he could think of to answer Bai Fan's question.

"Aissh... !" Bai Fan shook his head again, frustrated. He was really hard to believe that the head of a sect could be this reckless.

"That's why I'm asking you to back off your intentions, once all this mess is over, we'll help you. But right now, listen to what the young swordsman is going to tell you!"

Salu. He was really embarrassed at this moment. Luckily Lamo patted her on the shoulder to stiffen it.

Bai Fan looked at Arya who had been staring at him since.

"Thank you, Grandpa Bai!" Her speech.

Arya really felt helped out with Bai Fan. However, until now, Arya still has difficulty communicating well with many people. Moreover, if it concerns things that are a little complicated. Arya still has trouble choosing the right words.

"Mr Lamo and Mr. Salu, we will take all these people to the hill where the Oldenbar Union Headquarters was previously located. There, for a while they will be imprisoned!"

Arya again looked thoughtful, from her face looked doubtful. "I think you should take off your masks!" concluded.

Not what Arya thought before. Where, Arya had hesitated because telling them to take off the mask, would make them misunderstand.

However, just a second after Arya said that, Lamo directly ordered all the members of the Ghost Valley Sect, to take off their masks.

Not long after, the separation was complete. They began to lead all the prisoners of war to the place designated by Arya.

Behind them, in the place they used to fight earlier, it had already ignited an enormous fire. There, burned all the bodies of the victims of the war, including three heads of the sect of traitors. Subu, Gayatri, and Tungka.

It took them about three hours to reach the hill that became Oldenbar Headquarters.

Ciel and Bai Hua, brought some people to retrieve the captives they had left in a valley before catching up with Arya. Tonight, at least they should have a decent place to rest.

Now, they were placed in a large enough building that was formerly the headquarters of the people who made them captives.

Lamo immediately understood why Arya asked to take off their mask. At first, Lamo thought that Arya hated the mask so much, so he rushed to get everyone to take it off.

However, upon arriving there, Lamo realized that the masks of the Ghost Valley Sect they were using, were also worn by all the traitors while imprisoning all those innocent people.

"Destroy all our masks along with all those corpses!" lamo's orders to all its members.

The mask will be a scourge for people who are victims of the cruelty of the Oldenbar Union and the traitors.

"From today on, there's no more Ghost Valley Mask." Lamo dropped out.
