The sacred valley that I went through brought me to a country in the East. All the magical power I previously had disappeared, except for my skills in battle.

On one occasion I asked where I was, in a language that I could magically understand. Local people say, this is Sundanese land. An area in the western part of the island of Java. This area was under a royal leadership, which dominated the territory of the entire western part of Java with small kingdoms under it, they called it Tarumanagara. Power is currently in the hands of a Great King, named Purnawarman, a King from the Warman Dynasty.

I heard that he and his troops have great fighting skills, even invincible. One of the best times perhaps. Within his realm he naturally wanted expansion, so it was possible that he would need an additional regiment of a mercenary like me. So I decided on it.

The whole army is loyal to him; while me? Join the fight alongside him, conquer other kingdoms in this region. He was invincible, his entire body protected by armor of iron. He is like a God.
