Blind Devil
Chapter 7: Swordsman Randu Alas


The villagers of Randu alas let Aria, after Ki Sepuh told the villagers not to disturb the young man.


While Ratmi questioned her father's decision, why let Aria after humiliating herself in front of the villagers of Randu alas.


“Nak! You've seen that the young man is indeed blind, so it's true what the young man said, everything that happened was just a misunderstanding, while the incident was not the young man's fault, he said, but Double who tried to make a fuss,” said Ki Sepuh while taking a breath, trying to give understanding to his only daughter.


Aria stepped into the village of Randu alas, the village of Randu alas is not too big but quite crowded, the village located at the foot of Mount Lawu to the west.


The fertile land and its place close to the highway leading to the surrounding city, which is still included in the Wengker region, makes the village of Randu alas crowded and a stopover.


Since the Wengker region was no longer cared for by the Kadiri kingdom and finally stood alone, many people began to flock to the Wengker area to try to pit their fate and fortune.


But the Wengker area which is located between 2 mountains, Lawu mountain and Wilis mountain there are still many robbers and begal who hide in the forest around the two mountains, groups of traders and dignitaries who want to Wengker do not dare to travel at night.


And it is very profitable Randu alas village, because it becomes a stopover and stay for traders who do not want to travel at night.


The sun had not yet risen too high when Aria entered the village of Randu alas.


Aria's stomach has sounded a sign asking in the contents, Aria then asked the person she met on the street.


“Kisaak! Where is the place, so that I can get fruit to fill the stomach?


The man observed Aria from top to bottom, after seeing the stick, the man finally replied.


“Kisaak if hungry, just go to the rice shop in the middle of the village,” said the man.


After telling the location of the rice shop, the man left, and Aria headed straight for the rice shop at the direction of the villagers.


Aria arrived in front of the rice shop and heard the sound of horse neighing.


A lackey came up to Aria, saw a stick and a bamboo stamp, the lackey frowned, then said in a high tone.


“Morning is begging here! Just make shit,” said the Glassy


“Who wants to beg, Kisanak? Ask Aria.


“I'm talking to you! Who is worthy of being called a beggar? The bag said in a annoyed tone.


“Kisanak, I'm hungry! after asking passers-by, they said here there is a rice shop, please show me the way,” said Aria.


“Before the lackey replied, a voice that Aria was familiar with sounded from behind the lackey.


“What's No?


The glasses called No turned around, when he saw Ki Sepuh, the look on the face of the lackey turned pale.


“What did Ki Sepuh talk about? Aria asked, as it still remembered the voice of the person who had completed the misunderstanding in the river.


“True Kanak,” replied Ki Sepuh.


The glasses called No were getting scared, after knowing the person he called a beggar, knew Ki Sepuh.


“I want to eat but this guy calls me a beggar! Would a beggar like me want to eat, not allowed? Ask Aria.


Hearing Aria's words, Ki Sepuh immediately glared.


“Kusno! You always look at people's appearance and prejudiced, I wonder if you I kicked out of Randu alas and became a beggar, how will people see you? Ki sepuh said as he stared intently at kusno.


“Sorry....Sorry, Kis Sepuh! I'm sorry, please don't throw out servant Ki,” Kusno immediately prostrate in front of Ki Sepuh.


“Let's go to Kisanak! This restaurant belongs to me, Kisanak is free to eat here,” said Ki Sepuh, regardless of Kusno who still prostrates in front of Ki sepuh.


Aria smiled at Ki Sepuh's words, then went in to follow Ki Sepuh.


While behind Aria, the young man's nose smelled Ratmi's body.


Ratmi is behind Aria, when she finds out her father has invited the young man, Ratmi can only snort and enter the tavern.


A gallant man saw Ki Sepuh enter, immediately stood up, then greeted.


“Ki seven! Long time no see, how is Ki Sepuh now? Ask the guy.


Ha Ha Ha Ha


“Ki Demang Surya is getting more manly, as Ki demang see, I am healthy and fine,” said Ki Sepuh.


“What is this Ratmi, the girl who used to play kemuning? Ask Ki Demang Surya.


“You remember Ratmi boy? Ki Demang asked the girl next to him.


“Of course remember dad,” said Kemuning as he approached Ratmi, both of them smiling, then hugging.


“What children want to join us? Asked Ki Sepuh who still saw Aria standing not far from him.


“Thank you Ki, I just want to eat, because my stomach has been rumbling,” replied Aria.


“Kusno! Please give this Kisanak the best food,” Ki Sepuh told Kusno.


“Good Ki! answer Kusno.


Aria chose to split the table with Ki Sepuh, because knowing if he joined would ruin their atmosphere.


Aria smelled of grilled chicken and hot rice, after opening the caping, then immediately ate the food with greed, when her hands took soft food and water and smelled sharp, pungent, Aria put the food in her mouth.


Soon Aria's facial skin turned red, then her hands directly fanned – mouth with her hands.


Haah...hot....heat!


Kemuning and Ratmi laughed while covering her mouth, seeing Aria scooping the sauce and directly putting it in her mouth.


Aria took the water on the table and drank it.


“Air....The water! Shouted Aria.


After the water in the jug was gone he drank.


Kusno rushed to bring a jug of water, Aria immediately grabbed, then gulped down the water in the jug.


“And! What did I eat? My tongue is burning,” Aria said in her heart.


At the sound of giggling laughter, Aria immediately turned towards the two girls, but Aria could only catch her breath.


Meanwhile, kemuning and Ki Demang Surya choked, after seeing Aria's colored eyes to emasan.


Ki Demang Surya seemed to nod, after hearing Ki Sepuh's explanation,!about the young man not far from them.


The sound of horse-footed roar as well as the terrified screams of the villagers of Randu alas were heard.


Horse – horse stopped in front of the rice shop, some people dressed in red got inside the store, while some more waited outside, “where Swordsman Pandu alas? Asked one of the men who was big, dressed in red.


Ki Sepuh and Ki Demang Surya heard the words of the big man, dressed in red, and stood up.


“Sorry Kisanak! Here there is no swordsman Randu alas,” replied Ki Sepuh.


“Randu alas Village residents, do not want to pay tribute to the Golok satan college,” we were ordered by his Majesty, chairman Suto Abang to clear this matter.


“Sorry Kisanak, we from the village of Randu alas only pay tribute to the royal envoy, who now controls Wengker,” reply Ki Sepuh


“What Wengker will help Randu alas, if now we attack? Asked the big man, who was the leader of the red-clothed man.


“Whatever the threat from you, Randu alas will remain with his stance! Will not pay tribute, other than to the kingdom,” said Ki sepuh.


The man dressed in red, his eyes glared at Ki's words, then said.


“Rupanya people Randu Alas are tired of living,”


“We from the village of Randu Alas never look for enemies, but If Kisanak want to fight, let's fight outside, let's be more free,” Ki Sepuh said in a high tone, saying, after hearing the man's words.


“Good! Answer the leader of the red-clothed people of the devil's college cleaver.


“Let's get out,” the leader of the group beckoned to his men to get out of the store.


Once they're outside.


“Kill all residents of Randu alas! Shouted The man who became the leader of the red-clothed men's entourage.


A red-clothed man pulled out a large machete, then jumped to read Ki Sepuh.


Ki Sepuh retreated while plucking the keris tucked in the waist, then said.


“Today! me or you dead,”


Ha Ha Ha Ha


Ki's words were greeted with laughter by people dressed in red.


“Old man, you dare to say arrogant because you don't know who we are yet, if you know us, you will definitely run away in droves.”


“I know Suto Abang who controls the area around Mount Lawu, I also heard the complaints of some villages, but the tribute you asked for is greater than the royal tribute.


“You are not asking for tribute, but you are robbing villages around Mount Lawu,” said Ki sepuh with a furious tone.


Aria was still eating, when she heard the words between the leader of the group and Ki Sepuh.


While Ratmi and Kemuning looked at each other with anxious gazes, they and both parents did have intelligence, but what intelligence they were able to fight against those messengers on the demon machetes.


Ratmi, who was still upset with Aria, said to Kemuning with the intention of insinuating the young man.


“Kak Kemuning's! Everyone is anxious because of the arrival of the troublemakers, but there are still people indifferent and seem to care nothing, other than thinking about the state of his own stomach.”


Kemuning did not answer Ratmi's words, Kemuning knew, when Ratmi said, his eyes gave a sign that the words were directed to Aria.


But Aria knew from Ratmi's words, that they were addressed to her.


After swallowing the last meal, Aria then drank, after drinking Aria said to herself casually, but in fact she said to reply to what Ratmi had said.


“A blind person like me has never seen a troublemaker, even if the troublemaker passes in plain sight,” Aria said.


“So! Why should I be worried?
