It was clearly seen a beauty from various wind directions. The place is still green and fresh. A place that makes everyone very comfortable while in that place. Trees that are still shady, agricultural fields belong to a vast population. A place that always gives birth to unexpected natural wonders. Fushigina Kuni Village which means Magic Land for all villagers. The village is very remote and only has a population of ± 200 people. How could a village called this magical country be very remote and only have a population of ± 200 people? Because the location of the Magic Land is in the central part which is squeezed by four high mountains and has extensive forests and large, shady trees. Many strange animals that may have never been seen by the public in general. However, this strange animal was an ordinary sight for the inhabitants of this Magic Country. From animals that resemble elephants but have small trunks, butterflies that have fairy-like bodies and many other things.

"Daddy, it's time" shouted a boy who was nine years old, but had a body that wasn't too big for someone he called father. "Soon, young man"
"Always like this when going to grandpa's house" murmured the boy
"Okay, let's go," said a man aged ± 35 years out of the house and behind him was a 32-year-old woman wearing a light brown apron with motives for various objects of daily life.
"We departed" said the father and son with quite a lot of provisions.
"be careful. Have fun ”said the woman waving her hand.

"Daddy, what if we fish in the river? We haven't been fishing with grandfather for a long time. Hopefully the fishing gear is still stored, "said the child after walking 15 meters away from their home
"Daddy thinks so too. Let us fish a lot of fish and we eat together with your grandfather. How? "Asked the father with enthusiasm and was replied with no less enthusiasm by the child
"OK. This time I will catch a very large fish, "said the son, the father smiled at him.

"Grandpa, we came" the boy shouted
"You have come" said an old man who was busy cleaning his yard. "Daddy, what if we are fishing today? Do you not want to try catching Fushiga fish? "Asked the child while his son or grandfather's grandson went to the kitchen.
"Fushiga? Even though we have tried many times the fish can't appear "answered the grandfather after stopping his activities after hearing the name Fushiga fish" maybe this time we can hope on luck. We can lure other fish that are no less delicious. We haven't been fishing for a long time. Didn't my father used to love fishing too, "said the child

I prepared my father, grandfather, the fishing rod, "shouted the younger boy, who meant the son of the grandfather's son.
"Good nashuke" said the grandfather's son to his son whom he called Nashuke
"Notou, where are we going to fish?" Asked the grandfather to his son named Notou
"We will fish in the river near the forest" replied the child "wait a minute" said the grandfather quickly change his clothes and dress up like a true angler, while the children and grandchildren looked at each other with astonishment.
"Let's go fishing" said the grandfather with enthusiasm. His son and grandson answered him not to be outdone.

"Nashuke, have you heard about the legend of Fushigina Kuni Village?" Asked the grandfather to his grandson
"Not yet, Daddy hasn't told the legend yet." Nashuke replied innocently while concentrating on fishing
"I have no intention of telling it because this village legend is very dramatic and many things are lost after the light comes in" said Notou to his father.
"There are still many mysteries after the light enters. nashuke, do you want to know about the legend? "asked the grandfather
"certain. Are there acts of heroism like those that are usually divorced by my father? "Asked Nashuke happily
"Maybe there will be. Alright, grandfather will tell, "said the grandfather

"In the past, Fushigina Kuni Village was a village called Makkura. Villages that are full of sinful deeds of the ancestors who are humans who lived at that time as well as, the darkness that always exists every time that has been embedded into the hearts of every human being. Do not know God, do not know the teachings of kindness. Almost every night is used for spree.

One day a community outside Makkura Village arrived. This is the first time an outside community has come to this village full of darkness. Everyone is stepping on the light always coming. Soak up the steps so slowly and calmly. Do you know Nashuke? The ancients had extraordinary magical powers. However, the magical power bestowed by the Almighty was misused in that era. Used to do evil. Since the arrival of this person, little by little the village filled with darkness began to emit light. This made the ruler of darkness very angry. He transformed himself into a helpless old woman and the migrant helped him. "Does grandma not have children? Until you leave yourself like this? "Asked the comer.
"I did not have children and also the family of my grandmother were all killed by those people. Luckily I'm still alive, "said the grandmother
"Then grandma lives here, how? There are still many rooms in this house, "invited the immigrant kindly
"Thank you, young man," said the grandmother, smiling but, in her heart, she thought about how to kill the newcomer and not screw up in the village of Makkura which was under her control.

When the immigrant is deep in his room. The ruler of darkness who had turned into an old woman turned into a small animal, namely chiisai. Small animals that can sneak in crevices and usually look for food at night. In order to sneak in the immigrant's room and kill him. The ruler of darkness transformed himself into an old woman again and stabbed the comer with his sword of darkness called kkuranai. Without realizing it, the newcomers got up and slashed the famous kkuranai which was very great.

You are not an ordinary old woman. You must be the ruler of darkness who wants to kill me? "
"Extraordinary" said the old woman while clapping "extraordinary. I now know that you are not an ordinary person who is easy to control ”
"What is your goal to kill me?"
"Honestly nothing. But, the longer you are, I let you act more and more to take this expert of the entire village of Makkura
"I don't mean to take experts, but the whole village community really has gone too far. Many innocent people are killed just as a momentary pleasure. "

The ruler of the darkness immediately transformed itself into its original form and beat the newcomer back, until the immigrant was thrown far into the yard and his back hit a large tree.
"It's true about your statement but, this village, the village of Makkura is already in eternal darkness," said the ruler of darkness and laughed happily. The newcomer tried to stand up and take his sword.
"You are still strong. Oh. Do you have the legendary kuri sword? Brother of the sword of peace. But, that won't stop me. I will kill you, "said the ruler of darkness, who rushed to hit the newcomer, but the immigrant pushed his sword aside. The battle is increasingly fierce. Both have extraordinary sword abilities as well, each of which has the greatest legendary sword ever in the world.

"You look tired? But, your sword's abilities are truly extraordinary ”
"I am not tired of stopping the darkness that remains in the count of the fingers will rule the face of the earth"
"So, in short, you're not afraid to die? Alright hya ... "shouted the ruler of darkness running and straightening his kkur who was ready to split the newcomer into two parts.

A beam of light came between them. Who dies, no, who wins between the two? The ruler of darkness or maybe a comer? Or not both? Behind the smoke caused by the light coming. There is a dim person walking. Who is that? The comer or the ruler of darkness? But, suddenly someone's shadow disappears, and it is not known who won, and who died. Both disappeared.

Shortly thereafter, a newcomer arrived. He saw various miracles in the village of Makkura and changed the name of the village to the ancient Fushigina village which means a magical land, with the hope that miracles always come to this village.

"Then, the mystery of the disappearance of the rulers of darkness or immigrants is still unknown?" Asked Nashuke "yes, until now no one has found out" replied the grandfather "because finally so mysterious, I do not intend to tell you, Nashuke" said the father who walked slowly approaching grandfather and nashuke "I'll find out, how the mystery of both disappeared. Maybe the migrants used the power of teleportation, "said the Nashuke with origin, then was hit by the head by his father and grandfather.
"Why hit my head?"
"In that era there was no such strength" said the grandfather. It was answered that the nod of his son nodded in agreement.

"It was already late, we got a lot of fish. Let's go home, "said Notou happily preparing to go home.
"There is no fushiga fish." Said the grandfather in a sad tone
"Who said we didn't get it?" Asked Notou happily lifting a fish about 3 meters in length. Up to half of the fish's body and tail touch the ground. Pink fish and white long mustache above the fish mouth and blue eyes that are wide open
"Fushiga ... fushiga" the grandfather shouted happily hugging the fish. "Look at your grandfather, nashuke" said notou while smiling
"Is that fushiga fish?" Asked Nashuke not believing
"This is a fushiga fish that is very difficult to catch. According to some people, this fish is a magical fish that will bring good luck to those who eat the meat, "replied Nashuke's father happily
"OK. Let's cook this lucky fish, "said the grandfather happily.

After dinner with the main ingredient that is very special in the house of the child. Grandfather said goodbye to go home and brought some side dishes from food that he got from fishing all day. Nearly midnight grandfather arrived at his house at the end of the village and only a few ancient houses contained lights as a sign that there were residents who were keeping.
Grandfather immediately opened his secret place after arriving at his house. Behind the wardrobe in the dining room. There is an invisible vertical lever. When the lever is lowered, the secret door downstairs between the dining room and the family room opens and there are stairs leading down.

"Today I got fushiga fish. Of course I'm not fishing, but notou, my child. I offer some of these special dishes as a reminder of your disappearance, "said the grandfather, who put some side dishes that had been placed on the plates and bowls he put on a table.

Something shiny when exposed to the lantern light held by the grandfather when going to leave the place. Shiny and sharp objects. Is it a sword of sword and a sword of kuri that disappears with immigrants and rulers of darkness? Is Nashuke's grandfather a migrant who disappeared with the ruler of darkness? Does this mean the ruler of darkness dies at the hands of grandpa Nashuke ?.
