*Sang Penyar Pendekar Sanggana (Pepes)*
There were now eleven people sitting behind a table laden with dishes. The table size for one person is one fathom long and half a fathom wide.
The one person sitting at the end of the table order formation was Queen Aninda Serunai. The dining table is nicer and slightly higher in position. Somewhat far behind her, stood a beautiful twin girl named Kenang Hati and Kenang Indah. They were known as the One-Figure Demon, the former personal bodyguard of Empress Sri Rahayu. Behind the two stood a ten-day row.
Near the right side of the queen sat her teacher as well as her advisor, Demon Queen. And near his left side sat Mahapatih Datuk Lip Yellow.
As for the eight magicians who were invited to eat, among others: King Without Palace, Ropo Bunang aka Dedemit Bukit Lumut, Fat Demon, Fairy Teacher Satan, Ki Bandel Virgin, Princess Red Eyes, and, Nini the Occult Needle, and the Mute Gelak.
Gelak Mute is the Chairperson of the College of Finger Lips. He was a skinny black grandfather dressed in fine yellow gold like a noble. Around his neck was a golden chain as big as two fingers like a hip hop singer. On the ten fingers of his hand were six gold rings with various colors of his agate stones. Looks like he's a collector of agate. On his right wrist was also a golden bracelet. He really is a rich man.
There is still one table available, but it is still empty.
“Now I am the one who has unrivaled devotion. I think this is all of our luck as the power of the black stream. I know you all do not want to enter the black school union led by my father Prabu Raga Sata, which is only in demand by the black swordsmen of the midget class. Therefore, this time I invite you who have high magic..”.
“Pardon me, Gusti Queen, hehehe!” said Fatty Devil interrupts the words of Queen Aninda Serunai.
“What's up?” queen Aninda Serunai asked with a cold look. Inwardly, he did not like his words to be cut like a maid's salary, but he needed the people's energy.
“Can the food be while eating? Hehehe!” ask Fat Devil.
“Please. While eaten!” said Queen Aninda Serunai smiling.
So Fatty Devil and some of the invited old warriors started their eating activities.
“Please continue, Gusti Ratu,” said the King Without Courteous Palace. He chose not to start his meal, but rather focused on watching Queen Aninda Serunai speak.
“The Demon Kingdom that became a symbol of black-flow power has suffered great losses, from the death of my father, the loss of many warriors, to the loss of many allied warriors. I just got a report that five thousand of my troops, plus one hundred more of my warriors, were defeated and subdued by the forces of the Lesser Sanggana Kingdom. I, as the most powerful person in the universe, do not matter if I have to run out of soldiers, do not even need anyone's help. However, I want to know, who exactly are the people who are my best friends and people who are not in the black circle. I don't care, whether he bears the frills of the black stream or the white stream, if hostile to me, I will finish!” queen Aninda Serunai.
“Then what do you want from us? You should know, Gusti Ratu, I am a person who does not like to be ruled,” asked the King Without a Palace.
“I will not make you my people, but I hope you will ally with me. I made it clear once again, I do not need anyone's help to deal with the impending incursion of the white swordsmen, for I am an invincible person. However, I, who have everything, want to offer what you do not have by fellowshiping with me. How?” obviously Queen Aninda Serunai, then she grabbed her glass and drank.
“It's actually a good chance to poison the Queen's drink, but the Demon Queen's existence is very disturbing. He could easily know my poison type.” Inner Ropo Bunang.
“Then what does Gusti Queen assign to us as allies?” ask Ki Bandel Virgin.
“Only stay in this Palace for one full moon. That'sallthatis. All your wishes I will provide and fulfill,” replied Ratu Aninda Serunai.
“Included, Gusti Ratu will provide a non-virgin woman for me?” ask Ki Bandel Virgin.
“Ki Bandel, if you need a non-virgin, you can choose the old ladies among us!” suhut Gelak Mute, then he laughed loudly without any sound.
“Hahaha!” the laughter of the old swordsman men, except for the Palaceless King.
“Grandma Flying Crate arrivesaa!” shouted the door guard soldier.
Surprised were the number of old warriors, who instantly recognized the name called.
It didn't take long, from the outside stepping in a black-robed grandmother. The camper-cheeked grandmother carried her hair adorned with three different patterns of skewers. The grandmother had a funny face because she had one tooth. When he did not smile, his teeth were not closed. The grandmother was none other than Grandma Flying Chest, who currently had the status of the Northern Chief of the White Line.
“Grandma Fly Box?” call the Demon Fairy Master as if she did not believe what she saw.
“Pardon me for being late, Gusti Ratu,” said Grandma Casket Fly who has the real name of Kuming Rara.
“Not why, Grandma Flying Chest. Please!” queen Aninda said with a happy smile. He then invited Kuming Rara to occupy an empty dining table.
The eight black figures focused their eyes on Kuming Rara. After sitting down, Kuming Rara looked back at the other old warriors.
“Am I too charming that you guys are so looking at me?” asked Kuming Rara coldly.
“Is this the right step to invite white figures in this event, Gusti Ratu?” ask Dedemit Bukit Lumut.
“Grandmother Flying Box is one of the special teliksandi that has long served my father. The time is no longer in doubt. He's not the one pretending. There is no way that people who pretend to dare make Perguruan Bukit Dalam slaughtered,” explained Queen Aninda Serunai.
“What?!” peekkik surprised some of the old figures.
“I like something like this,” Comment Midget, then laugh without a sound again.
“So, it's not just you guys that I invite. A number of black flow magic figures who live in distant places I invite to come, such as the Boy Black Brushes and Swordsman Without Life,” said Ratu Aninda Serunai.
“What? Swordsman Without Life?” shock most of the warriors present.
The name of the Swordsman Without Life is clearly surprising, because the black figure who lives on the Lonely Island has a history of glory before he retreated from the martial world. Until he retreated, no white swordsman had ever defeated him. (BH)
