8 Goddess of Flower Sanggana
King 15: Heir to the Scepter of the Gods

*The Secrets of the Howling Gorge (Configuration)*

Like a young man who was on a weekly night, Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo invited Emping Panaswati to sit together on one branch of a mango tree while eating bananas together. They watch a movie called “Purnama A Day Lagi” in nature night cinema. Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo presented a comb of ripe bananas as the marriage of the two of them that night.

If you can talk, maybe the mango tree will get angry and berate both of them. They should eat mangoes instead of bananas. How hurt the mango tree, because the tree also has feelings.

Similarly Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo's wand stood upright at the grandfather's side. As a symbol of pineapple worship, Ki Ageng should eat pineapple fruit, not bananas.

"I was actually hard-hearted to accept that the heirloom was deposited in my residence, but I couldn't resist because I had a life debt to the Red Lip Princess. Although he did not offend about it, it was me who felt bad. And I also do not know, suddenly the news about the existence of the heirloom can leak!” ki Ageng Kunda Poyo said in an emotional tone. His face flinched regretting what had happened to him.

“Hah! Leaking?” re-call Emping Panaswati surprised. “Who knows that you keep the Scepter of Gods?”

“Suddenly a girl who claimed to be named Princess Aninda Serunai came to my cave with five of her men. They can paralyze me. The princess took the heirloom...”.

“The princess did not die while taking it?” tanya Emping Panaswati enthusiastically, cut the words of Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo.

“She claimed descent of the Blood Lip Queen and daughter of Ningsih Dirama. Her lips are red. Not the death of him while holding the heirloom, makes me sure he is the descendant of your extended family, Emping.”

“Princess of Ningsih Dirama. I was not very familiar with the boy or his mother. I didn't think the boy had a great daughter. As far as I know Ningsih Dirama does not have the provision of magic,” said Emping Panaswati softly like talking to himself, while his old mouth is still toothed chewing bananas.

“If Aninda Serunai is a princess, it means her mother is a queen. Unfortunately, she did not mention which princess she was from which kingdom. That's why I immediately went to the Duchy of Mendiko. It turned out that Duke Yono Sumoto had been demoted to demang at the Uruk Sowong Academy. And Ningsih Dirama said he had been banished to the Angker Forest because of evil. When I went to the Uruk Sowong Academy, it turned out that the Duke had also moved in with his son and daughter-in-law. No one knows where,” story Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo.

“Then?” ask Emping Panaswati.

“Then I'm here with you!” ki Ageng Kunda Poyo replied rather loudly with a sloppy intent.

“Hihihi!” kekeh Emping Panaswati who still has a leaf and a flower petal in his old heart.

“Then I hurried to the Howling Gorge. I don't want to be late. I have to address this issue. Because it can be very dangerous. Could-can happen decades ago repeated again,” said Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo. “I have suspicions about the crowds of warriors flocking to Lolongan Cave.”

“I plan to go to that cave before going to the Howling Gorge,” said Emping Panaswati.

“We go both, Emping!” take Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo.

“I'm very happy if we go together, Kunda Loyo. Hihihi!”

Jlegs! Cracks!

“Akk!”

Suddenly a yellow-robed figure darted through the air and landed on the end of the branch, where the two old men were sitting.

How surprised the two when the base of the branch they were sitting on broke, making their bodies together with the branch immediately slide down. Emping Panaswati even screamed.

Jlegs!

However, both of them could land impromptuly well on the ground. Both of them looked up immediately, because the figure that came did not fall even though the beach had fallen.

The yellow-robed figure carrying a person was hovering above, as if it had no weight or gravitational force. To see clearly who the above figure is, Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo and Emping Panaswati simultaneously stepped back.

Along with that, the figure moved slowly down straight until it stepped on the dark ground.

The figure turned out to be a beautiful young lady with short hair like a man. However, his pair of black eyes were all like they were filled by black-colored marbles. The yellow-robed woman carried the figure of a large man on both of her hands. A straight-haired young man, handsome face like a red-lipped woman, but had a muscular dashing body. He was wearing white clothes covered in a bright red vest.

Surprised the two old men when they recognized the yellow-robed beautiful woman.

“Goddess Eye of Heart!” call both at the same time.

“You are compact and one-way,” comments Dewi Mata Hati while lowering the big boy he carried, namely Joko Calm. The most beloved husband.

After standing upright, Joko Calm smiled kindly to the two old men. He and his wife looked like ordinary warriors without any accessories smelling of nobility.

“My respect to both elders!” said Joko Calm while menjura respectfully with a little bow and both hands meet in front of the forehead.

“My respect, Goddess of Heart Eyes!” emping Panaswati said he turned respectful.

“My respect, Goddess of Heart Eyes!” ki Ageng Kunda Poyo.

However, the two old men were looking suspiciously at the handsome young man they valued as a sissy, that is, a beautiful man who was a dandy, to the point of joking around like a woman.

“What the hell is this, Goddess of the Heart Eye? You show up with a dandy guy like that. Did something happen to you that changed your soul?” ask Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo. He knew very well that Dewi Mata Hati was the ex-lover of his brother, Ki Ageng Kunsa Pari. He also knew very well that the Goddess of Heart Eyes was the murderer of his younger sister. However, he had already forgiven the young-physical old woman because the incident happened due to accident.

“Hah!” pekik Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo and Emping Panaswati together, so impressed funny.

I want it to feel like Joko Calm laughed, but worry is a problem.

“Did you guys think I was cursed by a God so that I wouldn't be able to marry and change my virginity?” ask Nara. “Look at the behavior of the two of you, old but still blending love.”

“Eh uh, not so Goddess Eye Heart. We just met. It's natural that two best friends miss!” kilah Emping Panaswati defended herself. “But why did you choose a husband this young? Especially a woman like this? Are not there still many men who are deserted and also still gallant?”

“You want to take me noisily, Emping?” asked Nara in a tone that remained flat.

“Ti. After that, you appear weird like this, hehehe!” emping Panaswati replied in a convoluted manner, then gave a forced chuckle so that Nara would not get angry.

“You will be even more surprised if you know who my husband is,” said Nara.

“Who?” ask Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo.

“I heard everything you two talked about from the beginning. Actually I was reluctant to stop by to see you guys, because surely you guys would actually judge me badly. However, since what you are talking about is important things that we know about and concerns my husband, then I met you. My husband is Joko Calm.”

“Hakk!” pekik Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo was surprised not to play, to the point that he was pushed back two acts and fell down.

Emping Panaswati so surprised without a sound, seeing so shocked Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo when he heard the name “Joko Tenang”.

Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo did not rush to get up.

“Emping, come here! Try holding my chest!” call Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo.

Emping Panaswati who did not understand what happened, according to approached Ki Ageng and placed his right hand on Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo's chest.

“Your heart is pounding, Kunda Loyo,” said Emping Panaswati as she swerved.

Meanwhile, how upset the Goddess of Heart Eyes in the heart saw the exaggerated scene of Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo. He knew why the old man with the pineapple stick was so shocked.

Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo then woke up with a frowning face like holding anger, but he was confused to vent it. His breathing was seen rushing like the breath of an angry bull.

“If you want to get angry, just overdo it, Kunda Loyo!” emping Panaswati said.

“You're outrageous, Goddess of Heart Eyes!” yelled Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo finally to the Goddess of Heart Eyes, to the point that his saliva splashed out. He looked angry until his face and body shook.

Gee!

“Hukh!” ki Ageng Kunda Poyo complained with his body thrown backwards and then strayed, after an invisible force of magic power hit his stomach hard.

They all knew that the Goddess of Heart Eyes was attacking Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo. The old man immediately got up with increasingly ignited emotions. Emping Panaswati was on standby, if-if the blind woman also attacked him.

Joko Calam moved forward a few steps in front of his wife.

“Pardon my wife, Ki Ageng, for acting so hard on you. Me and the Goddess of Heart Eyes are already in a match, so we hope that it is not seen as bad and not disputed. We just want to know about the heirloom of Jengkal Dewa Stick that you are talking about,”, said Joko Calm.

“Good, I won't mind it, but you won't be able to escape the bad stamp of the martial world, Goddess of the Heart's Eyes!” said Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo while holding back his anger.

“I will fight the world because I did nothing wrong in marrying my husband!” nara's toilet with a slightly raised tone.

“Grandma, Ki Ageng, we know who is the person who now holds the Scepter of Gods, namely Princess Aninda Serunai. He is the son of the Angel God Demon King,” said Joko Calm back to reverse the conversation to the Scepter of Gods.

“Apah?!” squealing the two old men simultaneously returned with similarly glaring eyes.

“Princess Aninda Serunai is the son of the King of the Demon Kingdom? Oww Gusti, die me like this. From my hand, the heirloom fell into the hands of the great enemy of the white stream? Apes, apes, apes me!” babble Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo fretfully lamenting his unlucky fate.

“Princess Aninda Serunai is my half-sister,” said Joko.

“Hah!” sigh Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo and Emping Panaswati surprised again.

“I am the son of Ningsih Dirama,” said Joko again.

“Hah! My great-grandson?” jerit Emping Panaswati's.

“Yaaa, you are the heir of the Scepter Scepter of Gods that is meant Princess of Red Lips,” said Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo limp. He was no longer angry, but seemed resigned to the situation. It was as if Joko Calm had come to charge him. (BH)
