Invaders

Sungai Rajang with the length approximately around 563km is the longest river in Malaysia. It forms the geographical boundary between Malaysia and Indonesia. Many populations of Sarawak located nearby the Sungai Rajang due to access to various natural resources and as a mode of commute by the river. This is especially true for the indigenous people of Sarawak like the Penan to live there. Nowadays, only monsters could be seen roaming nearby.

Home to various wildlife, it is not shocking to see the river is highly populated with monsters roaming about. Especially crocodile. Sungai Rajang was home to the legendary Bujang Senang, the biggest crocodile that terrorized Sarawak for a long time before getting killed by the people. It is said that the soul of Bujang Senang is still wandering near the river, and sometimes people would get a glance of what may seem to be the spirit of the Bujang Senang when they traverse by Sungai Rajang.

Today, the legendary Bujang Senang has been reborn into a ferocious huge monster with the length of almost 100-meters from head to tail. Its ma.s.sive jaw could obliterate building with a single bite. Its long huge tails could sweep down a village with no effort. Its thick scale protects its upper body and is sharp enough to shred anyone who dares to land on top its body. Meeting this monster on land would prove to be an unavoidable calamity. It may be weaker than Alpha Cerberus and King Hydra, but once it"s inside the river, no one could expect who would win if those monsters would fight one another.

The monstrous beast is running along the river terrorizing the rainforest as if it has gone mad. Something surely has provoked its nest or accidentally step into its territory. If an ordinary person is looking at Bujang Senang, it may seem like it is randomly crushing everything within its eyesight. However, a hunter would probably be able to notice something weird... it"s the pattern of a wild beast trying to protect itself. Shockingly, it is actually struggling to retreat!

What could possibly fighting head-on with a legendary beast at a similar level? It should be a monster that is as ferocious as the beast itself but stronger. If someone looked closely, they would notice a teenage boy is clinging on its scale trying to hold on while gritting his teeth.

"d.a.m.n it, this reminds me of that trickery snake. Now I feel annoyed"

Clinging on Bujang Senang make it feel like standing on a jet going at full throttle. The wind blowing to his face has caused his cheek to be blown backwards unable him to close his mouth, showing his gnashing teeth. His black messy hair is whipping wildly and his black hooded robe flutters about as Bujang Senang continue to go rampage.

Suddenly a ma.s.sive sword almost half the size of Bujang Senang piercing through the heaven and land directly into its tail plunging it to the ground. Then another four smaller swords pierced through each of its limbs like lighting, binding its movement. The swords move so fast that it produced a screeching sound.

Taking this opportunity, Kim enhanced his right hand and punched through the scale of Bujang Senang which cause a ma.s.sive tremor that shook its entire body. A huge crater has formed on top of its body and only some of the scales are still intact. Sensing danger to its life, it sacrificed both its right limbs and its tail to perform a death roll.

Kim was caught off guard and he only managed to utilize 30% of his mana to strengthen the barrier enveloping his body. Its sharp scale is like a chainsaw that could shred the surrounding nature into dust. One roll, two rolls, three rolls, it continued to roll until a hole 50 meters deep is formed on the ground. Underneath, Kim is buried within. The ground exploded and a small figure shooting through like a beam coming out from the hole.

Caught off guard, Kim has broken several dozens of bones and some of his organs were damage making him cough a mouthful of blood. He"s even struggling a bit to stand on his feet. The monster, however, has instantly regrown its lost limbs and tail that regenerate like a lizard. Seeing this cause Kim eyebrows to burrow and forehead wrinkles.

He sits down cross-legged and circulated his mana to recover his injury. By that time, Bujang Senang noticed Kim looking weak and didn"t waste time swinging its tail towards him. Before the tail hit Kim, it was cut off cleanly making the end of the tail to fly away. Quite a distance away from Kim, a girl wearing a similar robe as him is holding a ma.s.sive sword that is three times bigger than herself. She has calm solemn face decorating her cute face with plump cheek. The robe is obviously larger than her as her hand could not be seen coming out from her sleeves.

With cold-eyes, she flicked her sleeves and a ma.s.sive vortex with a radius of a hundred meters forming in the air. Sensing danger, Bujang Senang regrew its tail again and rush into the river.

Before it could get escape, thousands of swords come raining in trying to strike the runaway monsters. Even with its ma.s.sive body, Bujang Senang swiftly zig-zagging trying to avoid all the swords making it look like more of a lizard than a crocodile. But, the infinite number of swords was too much to avoid. Fortunately, its tough strong scales were able to deflect half of it. Only the crater caused by Kim was sustaining damage.

After much effort, it finally managed to dive into the river with dozens of swords sticking on his back. Blood was leaking out even before it dove inside making the river dyed in red. Before mana of earth awakened, Sungai Rajang might not be enough to contain a hundred meters long beast, however, due to the influence of mana the river has grown wider and longer even more than Amazon river. Nature is life, and every living being contained mana. After absorbing mana for 5 years the earth has grown three times its original size. Even its geography is changing, forming new mountains, forests and sea. Creating new life across the continent!

Its face shows relief thinking that it was saved from getting killed by two mere humans. Soon after, a terrible anxiety suddenly swelled up as its instinct suddenly calling it to swim away as far as possible. Out of curiosity, it looked up to the sky and that moment...when Bujang Senang looked upward, its pupil enlarged and its whole body was trembling, forming waves on the river like a wild storm in the sea.

The sword the girl was holding vanished into thin air. She then raised both her arms to the sky above her head. Just above where Bujang Senang is, cracks were forming in the sky. The sky split and formed a huge vortex that could swallow Petronas Twin Tower as a whole! In the blink of an eye, a blue azure sword as large as Bujang Senang with elegant drawing at its hilt and intricated carving on its blade come shooting down into the river. The sword is so sharp that no splash could be seen when it cut through the river when making it way in.

Bujang Senang was shocked with its eyes bulging out. It looked like it wanted to let out a curse word if it could talk. It thought luck was on its side, as the sword misses and was a second away from splitting it to half. Little that it know, it was not luck. Contrary, it was actually the girl intention to aim the sword as close as possible to the legendary beast.

"Heaven Punishing Azure Sword, hear my call! Strike down all your foes and reduce them to ashes!"

As she finishes her incantation with her cute voice that could smooth the heart of any uncle, black clouds forming at the sky directly above the swords. In a split second, deafening sounds covered the entire area as blinding lights that could cause daylight at night time! Thunder as huge as the sword pierces directly into the river making all living things and small monsters and fishes to be reduced to ash.

Bujang Senang however, is still alive but it was still knocked out by the ma.s.sive thunder as if there was an "X" sign replacing its eyes. Seeking this chances, Kim who was fully recovered kick to the ground which cause him to fly several hundreds of meters in the air. He then forms a small fireball which then thrown into the river like a comet.

"h.e.l.lfire! Explode!"

Kim was actually throwing his h.e.l.lfire and could ignite it at any designated time. h.e.l.lfire burns brightly engulfing the water in the river like a demon. The intense heat has caused part of the river water evaporated forming a huge empty valley. Bujang Senang could be seen on the ground beneath the valley fully roasted. Kim then kicks the air changing his trajectory towards Bujang Senang. He managed to grab the ma.s.sive monster, pulling it away with him with one hand before water comes flooding into the empty valley making the river to recover. Although, this time it became shallower.

Kim tossed the once legendary monster on a patch of nearby gra.s.s.

"Momo, time for lunch!"

"Okay, Master."

Momo comes running with her short leg. Her long robe which covers her entire body make it look like she was wearing a Halloween costume. Her cute feature makes people want to say "aww" and dying to pinch her plump cheek. Her violet hair flutters about as breeze blew as she runs towards Kim.

"Good job today Momo."

"Thank you Master"

Kim pets her head and invited her to sit down beside him. She smiled brightly and look at him with her eyes sparkling with the same colour as her hair. They both sit cross-legged and Kim offers her some meat of Bujang Senang with leaves as the plate. They both gallantly munch the meat with no reserves, filling their stomach. Then inside Kim"s head, a huge sigh followed by a big gulp could be heard. He already used to it since he would hear the same thing over and over again whenever they had a huge meal. Last time was when they slaughter a Behemoth.

It had two horns protruded outward making it look like a demonic beast coming out from h.e.l.l. The body was covered with dark brown skin and decorated with magnificent fur. It could let out a huge demonic howl that could cause a forest to wither. Whenever it opened its mouth a pitch black ball of condensed mana would be formed. It could blow a range of mountains to bits. It also has the power to govern the earth and could create a giant wall that would protect him from enemy attack. Sometimes, it would rush toward Kim like a meteor, with rocks enveloping its entire body.

Interestingly, it has a similar feature like a cow. Even its flesh tasted like beef. So Kim took the chance to make some beef curry with rice. The aroma has attracted a large number of surrounding monsters but Kim and Momo would emanate their terrifying mana which instils fear causing them to stand on their ground without moving an inch. It feels like whether going forward or retreat, a single move would cause them to be a part of the meal. The monsters could only lick their lips in hatred as they watch both of them gobbled the curry into their stomach. It was especially true for the voice as it hasn"t eaten for who knows how long. The behemoth was also a female, in which Kim was able to produce some milk from its udder. The behemoth"s milk has become Momo"s favourite ever since.

After the meal, Kim and Momo would do some breathing exercise to increase their proficiency in mana and have a short sparring between them. Often dozens of monsters would end up getting killed by accidentally caught into their fight. During break time, they would wander around to see if there are any other living human beside them while enjoying the breathtaking nature.

This is the daily life of a teenage boy and a girl who are living in the current most forbidden place on earth, Borneo.
