Bagas and Kaja are getting more and more interesting in listening to stories from Nata's parents. Bagas and Kaja eat at Nata's house. They found many interesting stories about Kalueng. He said, Kalueng are creatures like vampires, which seem to carry humans and even animals and are taken to fly somewhere, but the direction is the sun rises or the east.
Kalueng itself is only found in the plains around the city and a few villages around there. They seem to have a certain house or hiding place and also their number is not the only one. Sometimes, a resident even saw a group of Kalueng flying together and carrying their prey. Everyone became frightened, all became restless, and could not move comfortably even during the day.
This year, there have been many victims of Kalueng as well as livestock that have become victims.
After their business was finished, Nata and his parents thanked them very much. Kaja and Bagas resumed their journey, but they were curious about the winged creature, half human, half bat. In one place they get more shocking news. They got it from a beggar who begged for mercy from passers-by.
He said, in one of the places around the village they visited, in the past, 50 years ago, there was a mass grave of a certain great group.
Black Secret Group. Yes, Kaja himself had never heard of Black Secret, but Bagas knew it. Black Secret is a hidden group in the martial world, rumors circulated so vigorously, but rarely can be proven because they belong to a very secret group.
Black Secret is a place of strong people, you could say they are anti-conditions with Aflif who was formed to maintain justice. Meanwhile, Black Secret was a collection of criminals, their numbers were few and their strength was unpredictable.
50 years ago, a group of people from Black Secret had been surrounded by warriors from Aflif who had been after them. The Black Secret members who were doing some work were ambushed by the many warriors on the Orthodox side or defenders of the truth in Aflif. Black Secret felt trapped, their tens were unable to face thousands of warriors.
Black Secret was killed even though there was a big battle. The Black Secret troops were buried in one place so that the Black Secret leaders did not know the whereabouts of the troops.
The Black Secret Army are great people, it's just that. Their number is only 9 people with high abilities. People also doubt the story, because the Black Secret people are bad people and have very high abilities and only a small group of them.
It's just a story. Not necessarily true, if true, the buried Black Secret Person, is it easy to beat? Reportedly, the people of Black Secret are those who forge themselves with strange martial arts and extremely high abilities. They were feared in the martial plains, moreover they were a group of savage maniacs and killed anyone with ease.
The existence of the Black Secrets is just a confusing story, who are the members and who are the leaders, are they all just myths or reality?
Kaja himself felt that this world was full of mysteries. However, the adventure is sure to be exciting in the future. He was looking forward to it all. Bagas himself believes that there are indeed members of the Black Secret and hopes that one day he will be able to fight against them. He had to get stronger, he clasped his fists.

At the end of a cliff. A young man was peeking and sneaking. He is Jiro. There was sweat dripping down his temples down to his cheeks. He has been digging for information about Sarkus for the past two years. He learned from an information dealer from Red Moon which is a special group that has all the important secret records in all corners of the world. The Red Moon group itself has spread all over the world, they are neutral but only money they are looking for.
The Red Moon group is also a lot of mystery. I don't know who the members and chairman are. They are only neutral and convey information, their whereabouts are hidden and constantly changing places.
However, everyone can access it with a secret code, how to contact him is also secret.
Jiro spent a lot of money looking for Sarkus' whereabouts. The person who became one of the keys to knowing the destruction of his Nation, Arahant.
Why is that? When the massacre of his family and nation, Jiro was still a child, all but himself were slaughtered. He was able to survive because of the protective power of his mother who sacrificed himself with the last of her abilities so that Jiro was invisible and sealed, Jiwo witnessed his entire nation being massacred, but could not do anything because the magic power sealed him.
His eyes were crying when he saw the massacre of his people including his family.
It was then, Sarkus' name was called by someone who covered his face with a cloak that had a stove on his head. It seemed that it was the leader of the massacre, he looked at a person who was quite small for an adult.
He was about 120 cm tall, his face was seen by little Jiro at that time. The man's stooped body was short and his head bald.
The words that were heard at that time were the words of the leader to his subordinates.
"Sarkus, you will get your share!"
At that moment, the small Jiro in the seal saw Sarkus' smirk of satisfaction as he thanked the big man next to him. It was the big man who killed his parents in front of his own eyes.
His screams were inaudible, his voice muffled. His mother had completely sealed him off from this world, as if he was a spirit that could not move at the scene.
Jiro clenched his fists again, at the edge of the cliff, he was already prepared because of the information he got. Sarkus was around this village, he was doing something. Sarkus himself, obtained information from Red Moon, is a figure who has a crazy tendency about research related to awakening souls and even filling them with scary things about life and death.
Jiro dispelled his existence, he understood the power of the Arahant who could hide his existence due to mastering the water element. The human body is largely made of water. By controlling the power of water, he can manipulate his own existence so that it is as if he has no energy that other people can feel, but it cannot be done continuously because it drains a lot of energy.
After observing for a long time, Jiro saw the figure of a creature coming out of a door that suddenly opened from the rocks. The rocks that Jiro saw were suddenly like a stone door, at first it didn't look like a door but suddenly opened. A figure came out of him, two winged creatures, yes Kalueng.
Two Kalueng came out of the secret stone door, they then flew together to take a direction to the west.
Jiro knew now, it was the secret door he had been looking for. He had been investigating Kalueng for the past few months. He didn't fight with them just to find out where he was hiding, did the Kaluengs have anything to do with Sarkus?
That's Jiro's curiosity, so he often loses track of the Kalueng who suddenly disappear in the area. Now, Jiro knows the Kalueng's hideout, which the warriors continue to investigate to destroy, including the Aflif who are on a mission to uncover what caused the Kaluengs to act brutally.
Jiro also retreated to prepare a strategy, it could be that the abilities of the Kaluengs could not be overcome, even if he fought and it turned out that Sarkus was behind the Kaluengs, of course he had to prepare a strategy. For him, he just wanted to know, who was the big man who had massacred the Nation and his parents, to know that, he had to face off against Sarkus who had great abilities.
Jiro backed away and turned around. Must have a plan. he thought.
