Kapitel 6: Conspiracy
It has been a few days since the King summoned me to his chamber. I was so busy lately because in the morning I trained combat with Sri Puspa in the garden and in the afternoon I must meet the King to talk about the technology transfer.
Finally after a few days, the King and I have successfully remade a minor replica to the earth technology. All of the best craftsmen around the Srivimojo were ordered to gather and realized this project. "3,2,1.....Start!" one of the craftsman shouted. There was a person who approached a small room with a lot of coal stored inside. He was steadily shoved the coal and placed it in a furnace. As the coal was lit, another craftsman pull a lever. Suddenly a massive sound of moving gears can be heard everywhere within the location. It was the first steam machine powered factory. I saw from above, a huge and long metal bar was chopped evenly by a big saw like instrument. "Perfect!" the King shouted suddenly.
The King and I made a deal to upgrade the smelters and metal works first. Since it was the highest demand in this kingdom. Usually it takes a lot of people to cut a big metal bar into a fine smaller one. The productions of these metal bar used to be a material for a fine weapon, but he already promised me not to wield my blueprints for wars, so instead he took another way. He told me he would use these smaller metal bars as preparation for the next idea that we discussed.
Later that night, I walked my way to the garden and I saw a training dummy. My mind is filled with a lot of imaginative idea, I mean come on, this is another world so it should be possible to do a little kind of magic right?
I tried to aim my hand to the training dummy. Actually I don't know what to I do at the point. I recalled when I read a novel, the protagonist usually chant a spell.
"By the nature power, I command thee to engulf enemy in front of me, ignite!"
...
.....
...
Only silence followed my awkward incantation. Nothing literally happened. Even the wind breeze to my ear as if it mocked my stupid imaginations.
"What are you doing?" Hamengku Suro asked me suddenly from behind.
"I.. I was just reciting some old memories. don't mind me." I gasped awkwardly trying to hide my stupid attempt.
"You were doing weird stuff back then. Are you going insane because of Princess training regime to you?" He teased me.
"Hahaha, no way." I replied.
"Tell me, do people from this world don't know magic?" I asked him.
"What is magic?" Hamengku Suro looked at me with a weird expression.
"It is a phenomenon of unexplained things that happened." I told him as I wish he get my point.
"Do you mean like those of shamans? They do work in shady ways but they sometimes give an amazing result, like a miracle to heal some people." Explain Hamengku Suro.
"Sometimes? Why did you use that word?"
"Simply because mostly they failed at the attempt to heal people. It can even lead the poor people to their own demise. They are practically gambling healers.A bunch of untrusted people." Hamengku Suro expression slowly become that of an annoyed person.
So, in this world there are also some people who deceive the others with supranatural things. I often read a book from the earth that people used to pass an era of stupidly believed in untested traditional and even ritual medical treatment that lead to a lot of death case. I guess people like that lives everywhere like a spread mushrooms.
This world indeed don't have any magic then. "Sigh..." I sighted out as I realise that my expectations crumbled right in front of me.

In another darkened alley.
"All preparation is complete. I have prepared everything that our benefactor needed." A shadow like man slowly showed himself.
"Good work Lesmana, we must seize the moment. This kingdom's wealth shall soon be in our hands. this kingdom don't need a fool king who fears to wage a war and instead be a concubine to another country." A person with noble attire slowly shows his face.
"Luckily a lot of nobles support our cause. Tonight shall be the time we take over the throne, Kala. We can easily surround them as tonight the will hold a small meeting in their mansion." Lesmana declared while arched his smile.
"Spare no one." Kala viciously replied.
"Understood." Lesmana answered as he slowly melt with the dark alley.

I sat on the chair with Hamengku Suro and Sri Puspa waiting for the King's arrival in the living room. After a few minutes the King finally come and sit with us. We talked about the current issue regarding to nobles clash with the kingdom and also future possibility with technological advancement from my place. It was then I realised that currently the kingdom is in dire condition. Internal conflicts slowly affects the country as it was divided into two faction. The King's loyal followers who supported the peace of every nation and The noble's faction which supported the region expansion to another kingdom. It slowly turned into dire situation as the other party wished a riot revolt.
As we speak intensely, the situation slowly become so chilling. A chilling silence that I never felt since I entered this country. The maids usually made a lot of noise even if we have a gathering before, but now it is a dead silence.
Suddenly the door opened as a man in black attire make his entrance. "Hello everyone." A sudden ill premonition kicked me as Hamengku Suro suddenly stand up and cover the King.
"Who are you!!" Hamengku Suro yelled.
"Kala, your demise." He announced himself as he throw a dagger quickly to Hamengku Suro.
Hamengku Suro reacted to his dagger but unfortunately his respond was too slow.
A dagger buried deep into his shoulder as Hamengku Suro let out a faint cry, soon after felt to the ground numb and paralyzed.
He let out a second dagger and precisely hit the next target, the King. The King as well slowly fallen off to the ground in only a few second after Hamengku Suro incapacitated.
The princess shout out his father's name however this mam named Kala don't stop his actions.
The moment I diverted my focus, he suddenly appeared in front of me as if he was teleporting and within a few seconds his yet another dagger stabbed deep into my back."Neurotoxins! Princess run away now, he is far too dangerous." I yelled at her as I slowly fall and felt heavy. This fast reaction of neurotoxin is very dangerous, just in a few second and you go numb and slowly your life forfeit. "Is this it? Is this my end?" My thought drift away as I closed my eyes again, similar when I was in hospital back then. I gradually hear less from the princess shout and all becomes black.
"Raise up, you shall not die here. I will lend you ours." A voice ominously called me.
"This was but a beginning toward the true untold event that befall upon us. Be prepared, for the time is nigh."
The voice mentioned the word us many times. This voice seems familiar yet somehow seems so distant. A strange and mysterious yet so gallant.
"What do you mean. I don't get it at all." I replied.
"Time will answer, space will provide and universe shall be the guide." The voice answered solemnly.

Suddenly a light glowing from Genada's body. A bright red light become enveloping his body. As Genada's body raised from the floor as if nothing happened. His gaze was so deep. As deep as bottomless ocean brimming with power. Both Kala and I shifted my gaze to him. Kala panicked and suddenly leap to him and try to stab him with the dagger once more. However Genada raised his hand against him and suddenly a light bright enough to illuminate the entire room flashed the entire room. Kala and I suddenly closed our eyes because of that intense light and soon after Kala's body was thrown away by unknown force and stuck to the wall.
Genada or maybe something else that possesed his body now shifted his gaze ro the King and Hamengku Suro. He directed his hand at them and a stream beam of pale blue light enveloped their body. That light made the body of those two pour out black substances. The face that showed sign of gravely injured become much more brighter now.
Genada walked to Kala's body and told something. "For your time has not yet to come. Fulfill your destiny as a demise. As I can't kill you now." He throw Kala's body with inhuman power and send him flying to the garden through the window. Genada punched the air and as if he grabbed something. He slowly ripped something. "Craaack" A sound of cracked thing can be heard in this room. As I see Gen slowly ripped the air, I simply can't believe some kind of hole appeared in front of me. He threw my father and Hamengku Suro to that hole. After that he shifted his gaze at me. "Go inside, I shall destroy this place. What must be done shall be done. Safe what I can safe." As he said solemnly. I have no other choice as I hear a lot of footsteps from behind the door. I was so afraid that it was Kala's back up. So I decided to jump inside the gate.
"Blaaar!!" A loud blast suddenly woke up the entire city. As loud as the sounds tons of bombs placed and stacked together filled the city atmosphere. The anxiety grows bigger into citizens near the Princess' mansion.
