ARYA MAHESA
Conscious

A person wearing a thick, shabby black robe was tracing through the forest where Arya was last.

With the knowledge he mastered, the man crossed the forest by jumping between the branches of one tree to the branches of another tree.

The closer he got to the burst of Energy, the more stealth bodies lay on the lifeless ground.

The burst of Energy that soared up into the sky was also the one who invited him here.

"Damn, I'm late!" He muttered, and accelerated his pace.

Even though he used his top speed. But the distance he traveled to get to this forest was more than about one hundred and twenty kilometers from its place. Although mastering the science of lightening a high level body, it took him at least twenty minutes until he reached this forest.

Not long after, he arrived at the center of the explosion. There, an extremely terrifying sight awaited him. He saw many human corpses lying down with all points of way and blood vessels that had already been broken and broken.

Seeing that, he was sure none of these people had survived. A face full of regret was etched on his face.

"I failed again!" mumbled wailing.

He walked watching the situation, trying to learn what was happening. There was a fight before the explosion. After understanding the situation, he could only shake his head. Things like this he had seen dozens of times.

As he walked closer, his eyes widened. He felt a very thin air of life still emanating from one of the bodies there. Soon he's approaching.

"This child, ... How can he still live?!"

Realizing that, he concentrated the inner energy into the hand to provide relief to the little boy's body. However, while putting his hand on the left chest of the child, he felt his efforts were in vain. His inner energy had no effect whatsoever. That astonished him.

"What's going on?!"

Not far from his position, he heard the arrival of the two figures he had just left behind. Now they're getting closer. The two looked at the surroundings exactly like what he had done before.

"Teacher, what's going on? "

"Just like before, one of the parties of them would definitely want to utilize a body like this." He answered while trying to once again drain his inner energy to save the small body that was now in his lap. However, still failed.

"This kid is alive?" ask the figure of another one who just jumped from the top of the tree.

"Yes, he's alive ... "

"But how can it be?"

The man thought for a moment, this is indeed very strange. Explosions like this usually make a person's body destroyed. However, this small body was able to survive and was still alive.

"Dutch, Krama... Gather all the Energy Core scattered in this forest. I'll take him home. I think we can still save him! "

"Good!"

"Good!"

They answered in unison and instantly dispersed gathering the Energy Core scattered in the forest from all the demons that died due to this event.

The person immediately enveloped and raised the small body that was already on the verge of death before taking it away, returning to its place.

***

Arya tried to open her heavy eyes. Only a little did his eyelids lift, a glare light immediately greeted him. He closed his eyes again.

It took several attempts for him to be able to open his eyes completely again, after he found his previous consciousness had disappeared.

When he managed to open his eyes, Arya was faced with a very foreign sight. In front of him, there was a gigantic gate dozens of meters away floating in the air from where he was. That magnificent gate was shining brightly.

Arya was astonished as to why she could be in this place. He tried to recall the last thing that happened the moment before he lost to his consciousness.

Various kinds of memories in an instant flashed within the head. He recalled how his father Natungga and Ki Cokro died. The shadow of her mother and sister was showered with hundreds of arrows, and finally, Arsa's shadow her brother was burned by the firebending technique of a figure she knew named Wiratama. Sadness filled his heart.

Wiratama's smile also flashed through his memory, the smile of the person responsible for the death of his entire family. Then anger and resentment added to the sadness he felt. However, only getting there was the last thing he was able to remember.

'Am I dead too?'

Of course, Arya thinks that, because there is no compassion shown by Wiratama and the people who turned out to be chasing his family.

Seeing that the others have lost their lives, although Arya does not know exactly how, Arya believes Wiratama must have killed him too.

Arya looked back at the gate in front of her. He thought it might be a gateway to nature after death.After this, perhaps he would regroup with his family. Arya intended to move her feet closer to the gate.

Arya looked back at the gate. Now the gate is getting bigger. Arya did not know whether the gate was approaching or her body was approaching the gate. He could not distinguish it at all.

When it was close enough, Arya tried to touch it. But the moment before his hand managed to reach the gate, the two doors in front of him immediately opened. A dazzling light burst forth so that Arya had to close her eyes once again with the help of one of her arms.

Before long, Arya peeked out from behind her arms. A terrifying sight was slapped before his eyes. Now he believes he is standing on the edge of a very high cliff. Only, in front of him as far as the eye could see there was only a valley filled with black rocks and streams of fiery red lava rivers. As he gazed up, the sky was filled with thunder and black clouds. Arya turned around and realized the Gate that brought her here had disappeared.

"Haha!"

Arya was suddenly startled by the sound of laughter blaring through the air. The sound that filled all directions was so loud that it felt like it could blow up his heart and crush his eardrum.

Arya lowered her head and covered both ears while searching for the origin of the sound. However, his eyes immediately widened as a huge silhouette appeared behind the black clouds in the sky.

A dragon head as big as a mountain appeared from behind the clouds. His eyes immediately stared intently at Arya.

"Inchanges! Finally ... You kept your promise!"

Arya was surprised that the creature could speak. Arya just fell silent and pecked at where she stood. It feels like he ran away. But how to escape from a creature of this size.

The dragon was silent for a moment. As if waiting for Arya's response. However, Arya had absolutely no idea what she should say.

"Your body ... What happened to your body?" the dragon suddenly asked.

Although it was not a laugh, but his voice remained large and echoed to the ground.

Arya who was originally sculpting gasped at the sound of the Dragon, then reflexively looked at her own body. He was looking for what was wrong with his body. Even he fumbled his body like he was looking for something. However, he did not realize anything.

"From what I remember, you look a little smaller!"

Arya stopped immediately. He realized that this Dragon had mistaken him. This dragon must have thought that he was another person whose name he had just called, Arangga.

Arya tried to dare herself to answer. " a-i ... Bu-not Arangga! " he said stamped.

The dragon frowned in astonishment at Arya's reply. There's no way he's mistaken for the person who locked him up here.

" You ... Wanna fool me? "

" Ti-no ... Na-my k-name, Arya! " answered Arya trying to convince the Dragon.

" Hahaahah!  ... I don't give a shit!  Now you're here. Only with your body can I get out. Now, prepare! " after saying that, the Dragon immediately turned its head.

One flutter from its tail, capable of sweeping away most of the clouds that covered the sky. Before long the whole thing was visible.

Arya's eyes were wide. In the sky, Arya saw an extraordinarily large creature floating in the air. From his movements, Arya was sure the creature was like it would do something. Whatever it was, Arya became anxious.

The entire body of the Dragon was now starting to emit light. Arya watched fearfully thinking about what the Dragon would do to her.

Before long, the entire body of the Dragon was already fully lit up in gold. Arya was looking at the sun up close. But the light emitted by the Dragon did not hurt his eyes.

Now, Arya began to feel her body also giving off the same light. And before long, Arya saw that the Dragon's body had already turned into a ball of light.

"Norango! ... I'll take over your body! Ahhaha!"

After hearing that, Arya saw that ball of light was now darting rapidly towards her direction. But the closer the light gets to its size. Arya who is anxious and does not know what to do, can only resignedly wait for what will happen next.

Arya could feel something had hit her chest. However, it doesn't feel so painful. Arya immediately opened her eyes, astonished.

"What's going on?" He muttered while stroking his chest.

Before long, the first warm taste spread filled his body. However, over time the taste became hot. Arya started to feel pain all over her body. The pain is getting worse.

Arya fell from where she was standing. Arya tries to endure the pain that is now beginning to torment her. His eyes were closed, his body rolled around and occasionally twitched against the pain. His entire internal organs were burning. So sick, Arya hopes to die soon.

But how could the dead person experience death again?, Arya was desperate with a fresh thought running through her head.

The incident that tormented him lasted quite a long time. Until finally the pain was reduced and shortly after, the pain began to disappear.

After the pain completely disappeared, with the body feeling very weak and tired, Arya again tried to open her eyes. But strange things happened again. As his eyes fully opened, he saw the figure of an old man sitting next to him and looked at him.

"Finally ... You're conscious too!"
