    • Chapter 10: Monkey and Bananas Cover
      by Bastian Tito The tavern was rather large, but at that hour, only a few patrons were present. Wiro Sableng swallowed his saliva. He didn’t have much money, but his stomach burned with hunger, and his throat was dry. Finally, unable to resist, he stepped inside. He sat down in one corner. The chairs and tables were coated in dust, but Wiro, the long-haired youth, made himself comfortable without a care in the world. A gray-haired old man shuffled over—it was the owner of the tavern. “Looking to eat, young…

    • Chapter 8: The Last Lesson Cover
      by Bastian Tito But Eyang Sinto Gendeng did not strike. Instead, the grandmaster simply leapt into the guava tree and settled back onto the same branch she had perched on before. “Very good, Wiro... Very good,” she said, her face turned firmly eastward. “All these years I’ve trained you atop Mount Gede... and you did not disappoint me.” Then she laughed, long and shrill like a crazed bird at dawn. As her laughter died away, she sang once more—yes, that same eerie song that had stirred Wiro’s heart…

    • Chapter 7: Three Deadly Strikes Cover
      by Bastian Tito Sinto Gendeng, lunged forward with blinding speed. The massive double-bladed axe in her right hand slashed left and right in a frenzied motion. This was the Madwoman Swatting Flies technique. Wiro had practiced this move before with only a kris blade—and even then, the technique had proven formidable. But now, its original creator was wielding it herself, and with a weapon far more terrifying than a mere dagger. The result? Pure devastation. The axe blurred, flashing so fast it was barely visible. A…

    • Chapter 6: The Axe Cover
      by Bastian Tito For all the strange years Wiro Saksana had spent on the peak of Mount Gede with his eccentric master, never once had he heard Eyang Sinto Gendeng sing. But that day, under the sharp sky and wind-whipped silence, she sang—and the words stirred something deep within him. The tune was off-key, the voice aged and quivering, but the lyrics carved their way into Wiro’s heart like the tip of a dagger. "Seventeen years have passed," she sang. "And the mountaintop remains the same. The sky is still blue.…

    • Chapter 5: Seventeen Years Till Vengeance Cover
      by Bastian Tito It was almost unbelievable. At the blistering peak of Mount Gede—a place thought to be lifeless and abandoned—echoed the peals of human laughter. Sharp, shrill bursts rang through the air, sometimes replaced by fierce scolding, then again by a wild, loud and boisterous laugh. Clearly, two people were atop the mountain that scorching noon—locked in a duel of terrifying power. A duel… of laughter? One of them was a shriveled, black-skinned old woman in all-black robes. Her skin clung to her…

    • Chapter 4: A Visit To Ki Tanu Cover
      by S.H. Mintardja Suddenly, they halted. A rustle in the underbrush caught their ears. Sedayu’s already shrinking courage nearly vanished. In a trembling whisper, he asked, "Brother, did you hear something?" Untara nodded. But he could not act. His body was too weak. All he could do was surrender himself to the mercy of fate. Then Untara lifted his head. "That’s no human step," he murmured. "Nor a prowling beast. Did you hear it? A horse neighing?" "Yes," Sedayu breathed. Untara whistled, sharp and clear.…
    • Chapter 2: The Coward and The Warrior Cover
      by S.H. Mintardja “Untara…” the young man muttered under his breath. He asked nothing more, but an odd sensation stirred in his chest. He had once fought beside his comrades against Pajang soldiers led by none other than Untara himself. How he had admired that mighty warrior from afar! And now, that very man stood before him. His heart trembled. Yet still, he had to fight. With his three companions by his side, surely they could fell even such a revered man. Untara understood well: his foes meant to kill him and…
    • Chapter 1: The Night Mission Cover
      by S.H. Mintardja Thunder cracked across the heavens, shaking the slopes of Mount Merapi with each deafening roar. Rain poured in torrents, drenching the earth as if the sky itself had split apart. Within a humble hut, Agung Sedayu shivered upon a bamboo platform. His face was pale, his body trembling—not only from the cold, but from the dread that hung thick in the air. "I must go," came the quiet but resolute voice of his elder brother, Untara. Sedayu raised his head, his voice quivering. "Please, don’t go…
