KNIGHTS OF MANAH VALLEY
The White Spear College

Puspa Ayu only nodded his head for a moment after releasing his embrace from the Manah Valley, a sign of approving the young man's plan.

Before nightfall, Manah Valley makes a fireplace and searches for fish with a spear that has just been made sober. Although a little blunt, but the young man still used it to find fish.

Not many fish are obtained Manah Valley, because the night also comes hunting.

“Where are you headed after getting out of this forest?” exclaims Puspa Ayu broke the silence, because from sunset, the two of them were just busy sorting grilled fish in front of the fireplace.

“My destination to the center of the kingdom, to follow the match between young warriors!” sahut Manah Valley with mouth full of grilled fish meat.

Puspa Ayu chuckled at the manner of Manah Valley which he thought was different from most young men his age. According to the girl, the Manah Valley is a kind, humble and mature-minded figure despite her young age.

“What are you laughing at?” exclaim Manah Valley which had felt noticed and laughed at by Puspa Ayu.

“No!” kilah Puspa Ayu while chewing his food. “You're just funny!”

“Ha! What a funny Puspa!”

“No, no!”

The words of Puspa Ayu made the face of Manah Valley flushed, if only during the day the young man would definitely feel very embarrassed.

“How did you get caught by Durgabahu?” The Manah Valley asked as it scratched the embers of the fireplace.

“Actually—!”

Puspa Ayu tells how he was captured by Durgabahu. Actually, Puspa Ayu is a student of White Spear College in the Kabaman Duchy.

However, the girl had yet to tell the Manah Valley that she was a martial arts college student. He only claims to be a swordsman.

Puspa Ayu is on a mission to find the existence of the creature waiting for Alas Mentaok and hunt the creature along with his two friends. Because it will be opened a translucent road that connects Kabangun Village and Wirati Village.

With consideration in order to facilitate access to the two villages and not too far if turning the lane. Puspa Ayu did meet with Durgabahu, but two of his friends immediately left the girl.

Despite having knowledge of kanuragan, but the girl was unable to face Durgabahu alone and was held captive by the creature with other captives.

“Ohh, so so! How long have you been held in this cave?” exclaimed the Manah Valley nodding its head.

“Six full moon!” sahut Puspa Ayu clenched his hand. “Be careful if you meet them both. I must have ripped their faces off!”

Puspa Ayu condemned the actions of the two friends who chose to run away when meeting Durgabahu and intend to make calculations with the two friends after coming out of the Mentaok Alas.

However, it was prevented by the Manah Valley, according to him revenge was not good and would only torture himself.

As the day turns night, the sound of crickets becomes a sign that the creatures of the night have warned the creatures of the day to rest. Puspa Ayu who was used to sleeping in the cave also seemed to have closed both eyes.

While the Manah Valley laid its body in front of the mouth of the cave just below the rambutan tree.

***

Early in the morning, the sun faintly peeked out from behind the lush leaves of the trees. Puspa Ayu seemed to still be asleep in his sleep. However, the girl's nose twitched like she was inhaling something.

“Good morning princess!” exclaiming the Manah Valley from the front of the cave mouth.

In front of the girl were already some grilled fish and other fruits. Yes, the Valley of Manah was awake when the eastern sky began to tinge.

The young man looked for fish with the spear he had made yesterday and searched for some forest fruits not far from the cave where he had spent the night.

“Is all this you who made it Valley?” exclaim Puspa Ayu excited.

“Not, Durgabahu gave him specially for the beautiful women who sleep in the cave!” sahut Valley of Manah seduces Puspa Ayu.

A moment later the girl's face turned gloomy and walked slightly to the deep part of the cave, then came out carrying her sword and drew out a sword towards the Manah Valley.

“Even my princess does not dare!” say Manah Valley while laughing and picking up one of the grilled fish nearby. “If you don't want to, let me eat!”

Puspa Ayu swept his eyes around him, he thought it was impossible for Durgabahu to bring that much food. After all, the food brought by Durgabahu is usually only in the form of fruits.

After finishing the food and cleaning the body, they both want to find a way out and immediately to Kabangun— Village where Puspa Ayu lives.

Still with tight trees, the left right of the thickets that made the Manah Valley slash the sword borrowed from Puspa Ayu.

Occasionally see a wild boar running with some of its children trailing its mother. Not infrequently they both also see honey bee hives, which honey drips from the nest on the tree to the surface of the ground below.

Moments passed, they were surprised by two stranded tigers who were fighting over their respective territories. However, the two of them did not interfere, as long as it did not endanger their journey.

“Perhaps that's why Durgabahu protects this forest from greedy people!” exclaimed the Manah Valley shortly after resting on a large rock. “For this natural balance to be maintained. Let's go ahead!”

The sun is right above the head, a little peeking from the lush trees of this great Mentaok Alas. Back the Manah Valley decided to take a short break on a stretch of grass that is not too broad.

“Eat! You must be hungry!” The Valley of Manah gives the leftover fruits of breakfast to Puspa Ayu.

They both enjoyed the lunch. Although it does not make the stomach full, but at least can delay hunger.

Shortly after walking among the dense fern trees, they climbed a hill that was not so high. This time, Puspa Ayu walked in front and wanted to get to the top of that hill immediately.

“Finally!” exclaimed Puspa Ayu while smiling looking towards the west.

“What you saw!” The Manah Valley follows to the top of the hill and stands beside Puspa Ayu.

“It is Kabangun Village. And to the west is the capital of Kabaman Duchy!” sahut Puspa Ayu pointed to a village visible from the top of the hill.

An hour down the hill, they had entered the settlement of residents of Kabangun Village. Some residents carried a bundle of firewood over their heads. Smiling people greeted them both.

“Come to my house!” pinta Puspa Ayu holding the hand of Manah Valley.

The young man was surprised because his hand was held by Puspa Ayu and only obeyed the request of his new friend. After passing through the outskirts of the village, they entered the center of the village which looked crowded citizens passing by doing their activities.

“Per-gu-ru-an Tom-bak Pu-tih!” Valley Manah spelling writing on the front roof of the entrance gate of a college. “Why do we go to this place?”

“Already come!” sahut Puspa Ayu with a face full of anger held her head, no, this time slightly pulled the right hand of the Manah Valley with the girl's left hand.

With a quick step, Puspa Ayu approached some of the college students who were practicing landing in the courtyard.
