KNIGHTS OF MANAH VALLEY
The Rambak Selah

Patih Ragas held onto his left chest shortly after rising from his slump. The burly-bodied trainer jumped into the clouds, then twisted his body followed by a slash of light blue light shot horizontally towards Rambak Selah.

With a stick still covered in reddish light, Rambak Selah fended off the attack of Patih Ragas. However, unnoticed by Rambak Selah, Patih Ragas had passed through the body of the superior Lowo Abang by landing a slash of his sword.

“Wait! Since when are you—!”

The words of Rambak Selah came to a halt as his left stomach bled out. The Lowo Abang official looked at his own gaping wound, then turned towards Patih Ragas who had landed a fist on his face.

Rambak Selah was thrown a few steps back with her mouth bleeding. His body stopped rolling after hitting a pole on the terrace of the inn.

Actually, it was a stratagem from Patih Ragas. The first attack was only to distract Rambak Selah to avoid it.

Patih Ragas fishing was successful, Rambak Selah fended off the first attack, then he darted quickly towards Rambak Selah and landed a sword slash without being realized by the higher-ups of Lowo Abang itself.

“Badness!” shouted Rambak Selah who was helped to stand by two subordinates. “Quick, grab that sword! Now!”

Several of Rambak Selah's remaining subordinates, attacked Patih Ragas simultaneously. While Rambak Selah tried to stop the bleeding in his wound with the inner strength he had.

“No I'll let!” Suddenly a black light shot towards the subordinates of Rambak Selah.

Yes, the Manah Valley paralyzed five of its opponents with various kinds of broken bones. The young man had just finished off the subordinates of Rambak Selah from the other side.

Without revealing his form, the young man came from various sides at a speed that could not be seen by ordinary eyes.

“Rest, train!” exclaim Manah Valley shortly after standing in front of Patih Ragas.

“So it turns out you're a boy!” indignant Rambak Selah to first see the Valley of Manah which appeared from a great deal of black light. “Yang has been killing my subordinates!”

“You are an old man!” sahut Manah Valley staring at Rambak Selah. “So surrender!”

“Hahaha, where might I give up from a brat like—aahhkk!”

Rambak Selah's words turned into a cry of pain after the Manah Valley shot and landed a single open palm blow on the stomach of the high ranking Lowo Abang, to make him thrown several steps back.

“Quickly, how could!” Rambak Selah rose from his slump and is still fixated on the Manah Valley. ”Alright! I won't hold back anymore, boy!”

Rambak Selah leapt into the clouds and turned the stick with his right hand. Five slashes of Rambak Selah's wand followed by five reddish lights shot vertically towards the Manah Valley.

The young man moves a zig-zag welcoming his opponent's attack. By activating the Gate of Darkness, the Manah Valley deflects every attack of the Rambak Selah that contains enormous inner power.

Five attacks were successfully repelled Manah Valley, but the young man still darted into the crews about to attack Rambak Selah.

“What! Impossible!” Rambak Selah widened her eyes.

Realizing to be in the pressure, Lowo Abang's higher-ups resisted the Manah Valley attack with a stick crossed in front of his body.

BUM

The two opposing forces create a medium-pressure shock wave that gives rise to bright light above altitude. Rambak Selah's body bounced higher and higher into the clouds with a recumbent position.

Manah Valley does not let Rambak Selah breathe a sigh of relief. Suddenly the young man had been on top of the body of Rambak Selah and was preparing to launch the next attack. With a palm strike open, the Manah Valley was eyeing the stomach of Rambak Selah.

BUM

If it is daytime, it may take a while for the dust to be swept away by the wind.

The Manah Valley stands in front of Patih Ragas who is coughing due to the effects of the Rambak Selah attack. The young man swept his gaze to the place where Rambak Selah fell. According to him, it is not that easy Rambak Selah was killed in just one attack.

What the Valley of Manah thinks is not wrong. With a torn shirt and blood still dripping from the corner of his lips, Rambak Selah jumped onto one of the roofs of the inn that was still intact.

“Wait just. I must have gotten your heirloom sword, patih!” rambak Selah said by holding his stomach.

After saying so, the stick he held back became short and put it in his inner shirt pocket. Rambak Selah jumped and disappeared in the lush trees behind the inn.

The Valley of Manah was about to chase Rambak Selah, but Patih Ragas prevented the young man.

“We better treat this wound first!” patih Ragas said as he stood up and held his left chest. “Where did you hide Princess?”

“Gosh! I forgot!” The Manah Valley held onto the head with both hands, then darted to the roof of the inn to pick up Wulan.

“Basic of a fat boy! Uhuk, uhuk!” patih Ragas exclaimed as he coughed lightly.

***

In the evening, Patih Ragas and the Valley of Manah did not fall asleep for a second. They were worried if Rambak Selah would come back to attack by bringing his other men.

In contrast to Wulan, it seemed that the girl was sleeping soundly due to the effects of the smoke bomb she inhaled. While Wanapati also fell asleep in front of his inn room after inhaling smoke bombs, plus Rambak Selah subordinates attack.

“I can't bear to see the Princess suffer!” patih Ragas said to the Valley of Manah. “Let him sleep on your lap, Valley!”

Hearing the words of Patih Ragas, the Valley of Manah obeyed what the heavy-bodied coach asked for. Wulan was asleep in the lap of the Manah Valley, the head of the girl was at the knees of the Manah Valley. While the young man's head was leaning on the porch pole of the inn and just sitting on the floor.

Patih Ragas took the blanket from inside his partially destroyed room, and it was given to Wulan and the Valley of Manah. Then ask permission to meet the inn owner to compensate for the damage to the inn.

It seemed, the injuries that Patih Ragas received were not too severe. If not deflected with his inner strength, it is possible that Patih Ragas' life could not be helped to receive Rambak Selah's attack.

“May you be fine, coach!” lirih Manah Valley looked at the back of Patih Ragas disappeared from his sight.

***

The next day, Patih Ragas' condition improved slightly thanks to healing with his inner energy. However, his stamina was depleted due to that healing effect.

The Manah Valley gives the body recovery potion and also the deep energy forging extract to Patih Ragas. The young man still kept some deep energy forging extracts obtained from the headquarters of the Great Sejagat Palace.

“Valley, what happened!” Wulan woke up rubbing his eyes with both hands to find Patih Ragas and the Valley of Manah sitting flanking him.

“Coach, why with you, patih?” Wulan was about to examine Patih Ragas' body, but the sturdy coach brushed Wulan's hand away.

“Hamba is fine Mr. Princess, later also healed!” patih Ragas who still holds his left chest.
