Jaga Saksena Pendekar Peniup Bledeg
Chapter 86. Dining Table And Hatred

'If I am the king, take care of Saksena enough given a gift of gold pieces and some female slaves!'

"Kama Kumara's! You should have been king!"

The silent Kama Kumara dissolved in the raging of his own mind suddenly heard a whisper.

A very clear whisper with a big voice was a little hoarse. The young man looked for the source of the voice. But there was no one he could accuse of whispering to him.

'Maybe I heard it wrong!' inner Kama Kumara.

"You didn't hear wrong! You can also become a warrior without a match!"

Whispers were heard again making Kama Kumara emphasize both hands on his two ears. 'I'm not going crazy!'

"You're not crazy Kama Kumara! I can help you realize all your wishes!"

Kama Kumara silenced herself, trying not to think, not to be deep. He had heard from the teacher who was brought in by his prophecy, that there was a kind of madness that the sufferer got whispers of.

The sons and daughters of the king, they must follow the lessons of the sages or scholars brought by the king to teach. That is why the sons of the king were educated, could read and had extensive knowledge.

"Kama Kumara, what's wrong with you, my son?" empress Mahiswari reprimands when she sees her little strange child.

"Oh no Byungda, just a little bit dizzy head." Kama Kumara said, obviously he did not want to be labeled as insane by telling the truth.

When Empress Mahiswari was about to say something again, there was a guard's call that Patih Sepuh Labda Lawana, Senopati Sundul Mega, Begawan Teja Surendra and Jaga Saksena would enter the room. The empress did not say, turning up to salute those who had been instrumental in saving the kingdom.

Led by the Patih Sepuh, people who had just entered saluted before sitting on the place that had been provided.

Before long, the officers as well as the meritorious warriors also arrived. They occupy the seats that have also been provided.

While waiting for King Basukamba they enjoyed a bitter tea treat. Empress Mahiswari asked one by one to tell her about their struggle yesterday in the war.

When one of them finished the story, with ease, the empress thanked him for the struggle of the storyteller.

Even though just saying thank you and being invited to eat together was enough, they felt appreciated.

Turn to Sungsang.

Fiery by occasionally looking at the princess who stole his heart, Sungsang began to introduce himself as the Red Swordsman. Then tell the reason he joined the war is because he followed his prince, Jaga Saksena.

Sontak Jaga Saksena glared at Sungsang. But Sungsang did not care, he continued to tell stories until he managed to kill the leader of the attacking tribe.

Hearing Sungsang's story that sounds like a joke, Kama Kumara asked the officers if it was true that the Red Swordsman managed to kill the enemy and even the leader?

The surprising answer was Kama Kumara.

"Rubber, Crown Prince. Even the real thing happened more than the Red Swordsman told me. Hundreds of enemies he killed, so he helped the soldiers of the kingdom."

Kama Kumara was silent.

On the other seat, in the part where the princesses of the king were, when the Red Swordsman called Prince Jaga Saksena, Lembayung Adiningrum frowned. Consort Kama Kumara remembered something but was not completely sure. Secretly he observed Jaga Saksena.

Sungsang Gumilang continued his story,

"What kind of shout can inflame your fighting spirit, Red Swordsman?" Empress Mahiswari asked, representing the curiosity of the king's families except Anesha Sari.

"Loudly, Senopati Ragnala Raksa shouted: Kill the big man! A thousand gold pieces for the one who killed him!"

The honest answer and what it is from the Red Swordsman makes Empress Mahiswari close the right palm to the mouth. From the corner of her narrowed eyes, the empress could guess that she was holding back her laughter.

Finally, Jaga Saksena's turn was asked by Empress Maheswari to tell a story. But it is beyond suspicion. Keep Saksena even saying,

"Actually, Her Majesty the Empress ... Our hero Red Swordsman who has been credited with killing the leader of the invading army has long waited for when this meal began."

When the food is in session then the advice is immediately consumed. In fact, when the time of prayer arrives but the food has been served, it is recommended to eat first.

Everyone turned their faces towards Sungsang, and the mature-aged young man grinned, "Her Majesty, the Empress, is already this hungry."

Empress Mahiswari smiled, then called her personal bodyguard, asking if there had been any news from the king.

"Not yet, Your Majesty, putting down the rebellion to its roots seems like it will take a while."

Getting the answer, the dinner was soon opened and led by Empress Maheswari.

During the meal, Princess Lembayung Adiningrum who was curious about Jaga Saksena wanted to speak up to just make sure, if Prince Jaga Saksena is a boy he knew seven years ago. However, Lembayung Adiningrum was not, because she was worried that her husband would be jealous. Because Lembayung knew, Kama Kumara was a very jealous person. Once Kama Kumara slaughtered a soldier for being caught talking to Lembayung Adiningrum.

Finally Lembayung Adiningrum only looked a few times towards Jaga Saksena, hoping that the young man recognized him.

Lembayung Adiningrum was unconscious, his movements had been noticed by the husband.

Kama Kumara looked at the eyes of Lembayung Adiningrum who turned out to be heading to Jaga Saksena. Then hate Kama Kumara's heart to the young man.

'Just wait, I'll make sure you'll never be seen by my wife again. And I make sure you never have any relationship with my family!'

Just finished, Kama Kumara suddenly saturate sound without appearance again he heard, he heard,

"You can reach your goal, Kama Kumara. I can help you!"

'Be quiet!' snapped Kama Kumara in the mind.

"Haha! You need me. Only I can fulfill your wish. Treasure!? The throne?! Strength?! The lady?! You'll get everything easily!"

A slightly hoarse heavy voice came back clearly in Kama Kumara's hearing. Making the crown prince more agitated until finally decided to resign by reason of the dizzy head and not feeling well.

"My husband, are you sick? Do you want me to poke your back?!" Lembayung Adiningrum, who had resigned, offered to help as she walked with her husband.

"No, no! I want to be alone." Kama Kumara brushed off his wife's hand violently.

Lembayung Adiningrum stopped his steps then let out a long sigh. "Nhuf ... What's wrong with her?"

Lembayung was silent for a moment, she knew very well the nature of her husband, if Kama Kumara said she wanted to be alone then she had to be left alone. If not, it will be a great wrath.

'I'd better see if he takes care of the Saksena I know. But why doesn't he know me? Aren't I still as pretty as seven years ago?'

Lembayung Adingrum smiled faintly, for some reason there was a sense of inner joy when imagining Jaga Saksena's face.
