JAYABAYA: The Journey of Being a Legend
The Ghost Valley Prince's

Some loyal followers of the Ghost Valley Prince checked around the place there might be clues or their possessions left. When one of them examined some bodies that were not completely burned, they found something strange.

"Rear of Setra, take a look at this!", cried the man immediately.

The summoned one immediately approached towards that person. He immediately looked in the direction pointed by his brother and saw that this corpse did not come from the Ghost Valley. He recognized his clothes as a person from the Kapur Hill College. Immediately he approached the Ghost Valley Prince to inform him of this.

"So they're the perpetrators? You fucker!! I will not let them live any longer" said Karnawijaya, the Prince of the Ghost Valley.

"But the leader I think there's something that doesn't make sense. If only the class Mpu Waskita where might have the ability to kill Mpu Lokeswara and Wijayadharma?

In my opinion, there are others who are the main perpetrators of this destruction" said Ki Setraji, a loyal follower of the Prince of Ghost Valley.

Mmmmmm..

"You're right, Setraji..

That clairvoyant is just a middle-class swordsman that even you can defeat. However, from him we may be able to get a clue about the real culprit of the destruction of our place. Let's find out at the Cretaceous Hill College!", the Prince of the Ghost Valley immediately darted towards the west. Followed by his loyal followers who numbered about 10 people who had high canuragan knowledge, in a short time, they had disappeared from that place.

Mpu Waskita, the leader of Perguruan Bukit Kapur, was sitting cross-legged in his place while observing hundreds of students who were practicing. The old man was engrossed while sipping a cup of liquor made from a mixture of rice wine and nira aren. His favorite students, Gandini and Majakarwa, known as Pairs of Sriti Scissors from Bukit Kapur, stood near the teacher while supervising the training of the students arranged by the elders of the Kapur Hill School.

But the tranquility of Perguruan Bukit Kapur did not last long because of the appearance of eleven people who landed in the middle of the silat college yard in the western region of the Duchy of Matahun. Their arrival just suddenly made a commotion in the training arena. A disciple directly approached the leader of this group who was none other than the Prince of the Ghost Valley.

"Kisanak, this is private territory. Not everyone is allowed to enter. Go before we expel you" said the big-bodied student.

The Prince of the Ghost Valley immediately raised his right hand parallel to the neck of this Chalk Mountain School disciple. As soon as his fist opened, the body of this large-bodied disciple was instantly drawn into the palm of the Ghost Valley Prince. Immediately the right hand of the Ghost Valley Prince tightly gripped the person's neck until this big man snickered as he could not breathe.

"Looks like you should just die!", said the Prince of the Ghost Valley as he opened his mouth wide.

Suddenly the fresh blood of this big man came out from inside his body and entered the mouth of the Ghost Valley Prince.

"Aaaarrrrgggggghhhhh release me arrrrrrgggghhhh!!!", this large-bodied disciple roared in pain but the Prince of the Ghost Valley did not let go in the slightest. After the blood on his body dried up, this huge man died and his body turned into a wrinkled corpse. Instantly, the Prince of the Ghost Valley threw him towards the disciples of the Cretaceous Hill College. The Prince of Ghost Valley licked the remaining fresh blood at the corner of his lips.

That event was really scary. The feathers of the students of Kedung Bukit Kapur immediately stood to see the incident beyond this reason. All of them immediately took quite a distance even though with a vigilant attitude.

Mpu Waskita and a pair of his favorite students were with the elder of the Cretaceous Hill School immediately came to the Prince of the Ghost Valley and his followers.

"Karnawijaya, what are you doing here huh?!", hardik Mpu Waskita immediately.

Hehehe...

"Clairvoyant, you've made a terrible mistake. Today I have come to hold you accountable" said the Prince of the Ghost Valley in a frightening hoarse voice.

"What do you mean by that, Karnawijaya? What responsibility do you want?", replied Mpu Waskita loudly.

"You don't try to get rid of your responsibilities, Waskita..

Didn't you tell the people of Limestone Hill College to burn down the Ghost Valley yesterday huh?! Do you think I don't know with your cunning deeds that dare to attack when I'm not in place?! A lowly human like you is indeed a shame" the fierce Ghost Valley Prince said.

'Hemmmmm apparently the request from Patih Mpu Kariti yesterday was really implemented. It's called not eating jackfruit but getting sap', Mpu Waskita's inner.

"What do you want, Karnawijaya?!", challenge Mpu Waskita immediately. Hearing that, Karnawijaya the Prince of the Ghost Valley grinned widely.

"The debt of blood is paid for blood, the debt of life is paid for. Today I want to see the Cretaceous Hill College as it is with the Ghost Valley!"

Hearing the Ghost Valley Prince's words, the ten followers smiled widely while pulling out their respective weapons. After that they immediately shot quickly in all directions by swinging their respective weapons towards the disciples of the Cretaceous Hill School. A fierce fight between them soon ensued.

Pllaaaakkkkk dhhaaaassshhh dhhaaassshh...

Blllaaaaaarrr blllaaaaaarrr!!!

The ten loyal followers of the Ghost Valley Prince were truly high-scientific heroes. They could easily slaughter almost a hundred disciples of the Limestone Hill School easily, even some elders were already severely injured facing them.

Mpu Waskita was helped by a pair of Sriti Scissors was not an opponent comparable to the Prince of Ghost Valley. Realizing that the situation could not be won by them, Mpu Waskita immediately turned to Gandini who was careless to adjust his breath while wiping the remaining fresh blood that melted out from the corner of his lips.

Go immediately. I will hold this demon to give you time" said Mpu Waskita as she spread her arms wide. A reddish-yellow glow of hot air spread around the old man's hand.

"But Teacher..."

"There's no buts. Go before there is still time!", after saying so, Mpu Waskita immediately darted quickly towards the Prince of Ghost Valley by exerting his ultimate study.

Mpu Waskita immediately tracked the ground violently and bounced high into the air and shot towards the Prince of the Ghost Valley who was still facing Majakarwa's attack. The attention of Karnawijaya the Prince of Ghost Valley was divided to see the arrival of the ultimate attack belonging to Mpu Waskita. He immediately chose to face Mpu Waskita and ignored Majakarwa who had been seriously injured. This was used by Gandini to shake Majakarwa's hand to escape from the place.

"Could you be a demon!

Chhiyyyyyyyyyyyyaaaaaaatt!!", cried Mpu Waskita as he smashed his reddish-yellow fist towards the chest of the Ghost Valley Prince. But how surprised Mpu Waskita when she saw the Prince of Ghost Valley actually tore the clothes on his chest and a wide mouth sharp toothed immediately gaping. Instantly, Mpu Waskita's right hand entered into the large mouth on the chest of the Ghost Valley Prince.

Chhrreeeppppppppphhh...

Aaaarrrgggghhhhh!!!

A heart-wrenching loud scream rang out from the old grandfather's mouth as the sharp teeth in the mouth that were on the Ghost Valley Prince's chest severed his wrists. Fresh blood immediately spurted out from the wound on the right hand of Mpu Waskita who was half-living. The old man immediately retreated and staggered from feeling an overwhelming pain.

The Prince of Ghost Valley grinned widely as he stepped closer to Mpu Waskita who was trying hard to stop her bleeding. Soon he opened his right palm and Mpu Waskita's thin body was immediately attracted to him. The right hand of the Ghost Valley Prince immediately grabbed him tightly.

"Your ability is just like this, there's no way you can kill Mpu Lokeswara. Tell me, who is the one who destroyed the Ghost Valley, Waskita?", asked the Ghost Valley Prince immediately.

Phhuuiiiiii...

"You killed me too, I will never say, Karnawijaya..

The destruction of the Valley of Ghosts is indeed the fruit of your own evil hehehe.", furious at being spit on and that answer, the Prince of the Valley of Ghosts immediately squeezed the trunk of Mpu Waskita's neck.

Krrraaaack...!!

The head of the Kapur Bukit Perguruan leadership immediately drooped after the sound of broken bones sounded from his neck. The Prince of the Ghost Valley immediately slammed the corpse onto the ground as hard as possible.

The Prince of the Ghost Valley then turned his head towards his followers who were visiting the bodies of the surviving disciples of the Cretaceous Mountain School.

"Anyone else wants to catch up with your teacher?! If no one talks, I guarantee you all will be the same fate as your teacher"

A disciple immediately raised his right hand. The threat was not just a joke because his teacher was killed by this cruel person.

"Prince Mapanji Jayabaya. Prince Mapanji Jayabaya is the mastermind of the destruction of the Ghost Valley. He.", the frightened student immediately told him everything he knew.

"Your son of a bitch Jayabaya..!! You've been beating the drums of war with me. Wait, Panjalu's destruction is about to happen", the Prince of the Ghost Valley clenched his hands tightly.

The Prince of Ghost Valley immediately turned his body while gesturing to his followers. A moment later there was the sound of screams restrained from the students of Perguruan Bukit Kapur who became hostages. Apparently the Prince of the Ghost Valley did not want a single person left from this place. After committing a massacre at Perguruan Bukit Kapur, the Prince of Ghost Valley with his loyal followers moved towards Kotaraja Kahuripan Palace. The fire immediately burned all the buildings in that place.

From a distance, Gandini and Majakarwa or a pair of Sriti Scissors from the Cretaceous Hill could not hold back their tears. After all they were both raised in that place by Mpu. Waskita since she was a child.

"We should follow Gusti Pangeran Mapanji Jayabaya to Daha, Kakang Karwa. We have to report this to him. Let's go", Gandini wiped the remaining tears on his cheeks while tapping the body of Majakarwa who was seriously injured. With a staggering movement of bodies, the two rushed away leaving their hiding place.

Right at noon on the banks of the Kapulungan River which became the natural boundary between the Duchy of Matahun with Kayuwarajan Kadiri, Jaka Umbaran stopped the footsteps of his horse mounts. I don't know why her feelings suddenly became unpleasant and then immediately looked back.

"What is Gusti Pangeran?", asked Gendol who was riding on the right side of Jaka Umbaran.

"Ah is okay, maybe it is just my feeling that something is happening in the Duchy of Matahun.

Never mind, no need to think about it. We'd better get across this Kapulungan River. There are still many tasks waiting for us in Kayuwarajan Kadiri" said Jaka Umbaran as he jumped down from his horse. Followed by his personal guards, Yuwaraja Panjalu immediately led his horse towards the ferry boat that had docked at the dock.

Meanwhile, across the Kapulungan River, an old man with a thick body immediately stood up when someone nearby pointed towards Jaka Umbaran and friends who were across the river. The old man immediately clasped tightly onto the spear handle beside him as he said slowly,

"Time to do the job..."
