Invisible someone who had been stolen food for several time. Is it possible the ghost eat lunch?
________
'Wasn't Raojhin the only one of the praja who succeeded for raising the Gendewa?'
Sounded whispers of the praja students said about Raojhin. Taja stealthily stole a glance at him.
'Is the reason why Raojhin seem confident?' thought Taja.
"If we find someone who can raise the Gendewa, it will be easier for Pasvaati to find the owner," Chief Sujinsha seized the atmosphere a little boisterous due to the whispers of the praja in one of the rooms of the Palace of Heritage.
Next schedule. The Young Praja students and The Earth Praja, joined the break by time and lunch.
"What ...?!"
A loud voice among a flock of prajas who were eating together.
"Lost again?!" reply another.
"That's right! Another serving is lost!"
"So Weird! Is there really a ghost that stole lunch food?!" said another in response.
Taja sat cross-legged. Just listening the others speak.
"Who are they talking about?" Taja asked someone next to him.
The other side, Lorr En looked reluctant to touch the food, "What meat is this?"
"Snake meat!" answered another praja and surprised Lorr En. He seemed to shudder. The bowl of dish in his hand was immediately put away. In the end, he had to skip lunch. Luckily there was still a bowl of warm honey to quench his thirst. Meanwhile, some people had just finished eating.
They lined up neatly in lunch activities together. In the midst of talking about the legend of Pasvaati, something else is on the topic.
The story goes, the archers team was disturbed by the presence of an 'Invisible' figure who had been sneaking around among them all this time. This has been reported. Even Chief Sujinsha had long suspected this. He once ordered all archers to collect their insignia. The result, collected 41 badges. Even though the number of members of the praja archers team was only 40 people.
Occasionally, when all the prajas are eating, a lunch ration mysteriously disappears. Only the Expert of Archer squad had experienced such an odd turn of events. That's the rumor that happened.
"Invisible someone who had been stolen food for several time. Is it possible the ghost eat lunch?" more and more widespread rumors of people talking about it.
"Lost lunch rations can be replaced. But the problem is, who did it?"
Taja listened to whoever was talking about.
"Perhaps, the ghost was one of the Golden Praja who disappeared years ago. He never to return alive."
"They didn't disappear. Rather, the ruler of the Kakilangit Sect asked Tanapura to send the best praja, almost every year."
"The praja student who were sent there ... but he never came back here ...," said another one.
"That's the rumour."
"Correct! The last Praja sent to Kakilangit was The Golden Praja!"
"If I'm not mistaken, the praja's name is ... umm ...."
For a moment the gossip stopped, horror haunted their conversation to just say a name.
"Raghil. The Golden Praja was Raghil. Now he is known as a ghost!" without hesitation, Raojhin suddenly interjects a serious conversation between them. Only he dared to mention the name of a praja named Raghil, who was once widely discussed among the Praja Unity. Raghil's departure from Tanapura, but never coming back. This was a serious case.
"All of us are the Praja of Tanapura. Are you afraid of ghost?! How ashamed," said Raojhin, nonchalantly.
At first, Raojhin doesn't care about the rumors of Raghil's case. He was focused on his own mind. However, the case of The Golden Praja who has lost, that become a topic of discussion all the time. Even though it happened a year ago. Finally, Raojhin got carried away by Golden Praja who known was Raghil. The rumour at lunch.
"The Pure Spirit?" Raojhin muttered by himself. Move on to other mind that are more important. Taja heard clearly Raojhin said. It so happened that he sat next to Raojhin, only then a few people sat cross-legged between the both of them.
"How long does meditation take to bring forth the Pure Spirit?" Raojhin continued muttering to himself. But it was enough to hear Taja, as well as the people on either side of him.
"It's a spell words!" Taja responded. Raojhin turned to him.
"What do you mean?" Raojhin diverts attention, not caring much about his lunch. So does Taja. They exchanged glances.
"That carving isn't just a mere greeting! It's an incantation!" replied Taja more.
"How do you know? Do you concluded like that?" Raojhin lacks faith in Taja's words.
"Someone told me," said Taja.
"Who?" Raojhin asked.
"I don't know, he suddenly appeared from the crowd of archers since this afternoon," Taja replied casually and started to stuff rice into his mouth.
"He whispered. In an instant, I don't see him anymore," said Taja while chewing the food in his mouth.
"How's the person?" Lorr En joined in speaking, "The one who said the carving was a spell?"
"I don't know, I think that ... I've met him at the Palace of the Oldest Books," Taja answered, trying to remembered, "A few weeks ago."
"Is he as same as our age?" Lorr En was seemed curious. But Taja didn't answer immediately, chewed his food first, then just nodded lightly.
"Never mind, I saw him again at the Palace of Heritage. But now, he doesn't seem to be in this room with us," turning his head to the right for a moment, Taja was a little surprised.
"After this, we will take part in the Sharp Archery competition training!" middle level praja reminds all praja students to take shelter.
Break and lunch time fights with talk of Invisible Praja and Pasvaati. Until the next activity begins. All students of praja basket go together to the archery practice area. During the trip to the training location, there were still many people talking about strange incidents about the Figure of Invisible Praja.
Taja watched the movements of everyone involved in the archery training that day. Nothing unusual. Everything looks normal. Not all the prajas were known to one another, but there were no signs of anything out of the ordinary either.
