“Yes that is right, she is siluman. A very strong siluman, I think. It is impossible for us, humans, to defeat that kind of creature. But, wait, I ever heard a story but I don’t know whether it is valid or not” said a voice from behind

“What the story?” asked the man impatiently

“Well, it is said that Nenek Pakande can only be defeated by a giant name “King Bangkung Pitu Reppa Rawo Ale”. But no one know where the giant is now. It has been a long time since the last time he appeared”
