Chapter 17 - Chapter 17 Arya Kemuning Amardipura the Master of Slayer Dragon

Arya Kemuning, he is a Diciple of Raterasu Sang Hyang Tera Sumirat in Ame Vilage Pancurugan Distrik Cirebon City.

Before being known as the Prince of the ancient Sunda Kingdom or the son of the Primordial Emperor Dewa Niskala, Arya Kemuning was a young man who climbed his way up from the bottom of Ame Village. He studied under Raterasu, the legendary Sword God, one of the Five Knights of the Milky Way Dragon Kingdom.

Meanwhile, a holy maiden named Shinta was cursed and enslaved by the tyrannical Dragon God. To free herself and bring justice to the universe, Shinta was destined to wander in search of seven loyal servants who were the true sword masters (Seven Sword Masters). Arya Kemuning is the key to these seven masters. Together, they must confront the dark alliance between the legendary sorceress Kaguya Akemono Yume and the Seven Legendary Dragons in an apocalyptic war recorded in cosmic history as the "Battle Through the Heavens."

II. Main Characters & Factions

Arya Kemuning: The primary disciple of Sword God Raterasu. A genius swordsman from Ame Village who bears the hidden bloodline of the God Niskala and the Void Empress Larasati.

Sita: A maiden of destiny seeking freedom from the Dragon God's grip. Possesses the spiritual ability to unite seven master swordsmen.

Raterasu (The Sword God): One of the Five Legendary Warriors. Arya's stern mentor and privy to the secrets of ancient cosmic destruction.

Kaguya Akemono Yume: The main antagonist, an ancient dark sorceress who manipulates the Seven Legendary Dragons to overthrow the Gods of Light.

The Seven Legendary Dragons: Ancient creatures embodying the elements of nature who serve as guardians of the Dragon God's tyrani.

Part 1: Origins in Ame Village (Struggling from Zero)

The story opens in Ame Village, a remote, mist-shrouded village on the outskirts of the Milky Way Dragon Kingdom. Arya Kemuning is an orphan who endures the rigors of training from Raterasu, the Sword God disguised as an old drunkard. It is here that Arya learns the essence of the sword: not to kill, but to sever evil fate. Under Raterasu's guidance, Arya successfully transcends his human limits and is recognized as the Young Sword Master of Ame Village.

Part 2: A Fated Encounter & the Gathering of the 7 Servants

Shinta arrives in Ame Village while fleeing the pursuit of the Dragon God's envoys. Her body oozes a seal of dragon energy that slowly consumes her. Following the guidance of an ancient prophecy, she must find seven sword servants. Her encounter with Arya Kemuning triggers the resonance of her mystical sword. Arya, witnessing Shinta's determination to fight against tyrannical destiny, vows to become her first sword servant and protector. They then journey across the Milky Way to recruit six other swordmasters, facing various moral tests, betrayals, and clashes of martial arts orders.

Part 3: Kaguya Akemono Yume's Dark Alliance

As the Seven Swordmasters gather under the leadership of Shinta and Arya, the world is shaken by the rise of Kaguya Akemono Yume. Kaguya exploits the Seven Legendary Dragons' ancient grudge against the Gods of Light (later connected to the Light Emperor faction in Book 9). Kaguya unleashes the seven giant dragons to destroy the pillars of heaven, threatening to plunge the Milky Way Dragon Kingdom into eternal darkness.

Part 4: Battle Through the Heavens (Climax)

The climactic battle takes place in the endless expanse of the sky, traversing the nine layers of the cosmic continent. Arya Kemuning leads the Seven Swordmasters against waves of Kaguya's forces and confronts the Seven Legendary Dragons head-on.

In this incredible battle, Arya is pushed to the brink of death. However, at this nadir, the remnants of the Primordial bloodline (the children of the God Niskala and the Chaos Empress Larasati) within him awaken. With the combined sword slashes of the Seven Swordmasters and Shinta's spiritual energy manipulation, Arya unleashed his ultimate move: "Slayer Dragon Form: Heaven Divider." The Seven Dragons were resealed, and Kaguya's dark projection was destroyed. As told in the Tale of Five Warriors and a Dragon, Ame Village has been destroyed four times. The first was the Epic Battle between Arya Wijaya and Su Ryuqi for Xiao Shi Luo Yan. The second was razed by the Demon King Sahamaru and the Fallen Goddess Yuki Fujita. The third was attacked by Ani Sakura Yuki (Xiao Liong An Yi) and Shin Mao Ryu. The last was by the Seven Dragon Slayer Swordmasters led by Goddess Shinta herself.

Although the Dragon God was weakened and Shinta regained her freedom, this battle tore apart the cosmic order of the universe. This victory triggered a major shift in power that would later lead to the invasion of the Ancestral Continent by foreign nations armed with the Dragon God's Relic in Book 9.

Arya Kemuning, now recognized as the lost prince of the Primordial Empire, begins his journey to the outer realms, where fate will eventually bring him together with Dewi Ningrum Maharani, who is stranded seeking justice after her kingdom was destroyed.

Dragon God's Heirloom: The weapon used to destroy Dewi Ningrum's kingdom in Book 9 is the remnant of the Dragon God's power, which Arya and Shinta defeated in Book 4.

Arya Kemuning possesses the authority and power equivalent to a Duke/Crown Prince of the Great Primordial Empire, thanks to his inheritance from Dewa Niskala and Empress Larasati.
