Gendol immediately turned pale immediately hearing the voice of the person who had just beaten him all out. His instincts to survive instantly also reminded him that his life can be lost at any time if he still mengeyel to face Jaka Umbaran.
"I-I don't dare...
I-i gave up.. I-yes I gave up. Forgive my warrior life, forgive my life.", Gendol immediately prostrated before Jaka Umbaran. He really resigned to the fate that will be in nature.
If Gendol had been aware of himself first with the power possessed by Jaka Umbaran, another case with Ki Bengkong. The hunchbacked old man immediately spat on the back of Gendol who was prostrating on the ground.
Phhuuiiiiii...
"It's a shame on you, Gendol..
I Ki Bengkong would rather die than have to bow down to this son of a bitch. Hey crazy boy, I still haven't lost. Let's continue our fight", said Ki Bengkong while patting his chest as if challenging Jaka Umbaran to beat him.
"Two bangka don't know themselves...
You are indeed the time to leave this mortal world", replied Jaka Umbaran who was getting annoyed with Ki Bengkong's stubborn attitude.
Hearing that, Ki Bengkong directly exerted all his energy in his. His two hands immediately crossed in front of his chest, then stretched wide to the left and right of his body and then cupped in front of his chest. A fiery red light rolled swiftly on the two arms of the hunchbacked old man then gathered in his palms. Apparently he wants to bring out Ajian Cadas Ngampar which is the ultimate study of his.
"Could you be a fucking boy!!!
Hiiyyyyyyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat...!!!", shouted Ki Bengkong while smashing his right hand palm towards Jaka Umbaran.
Shhhiiiiiiiiuutth....
Just before the hot red light hit Jaka Umbaran's body, the handsome young man immediately inhaled a deep breath of air while closing his eyes. As soon as he opened his eyes, his eye bead turned golden yellow.
Mmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!
The loud explosion was heard to a distance of hundreds of fathoms. Sadewa, Permadi and Locana who were looking for a place to fight, immediately looked at each other.
"That must be where uncle master fights. Let's go there, teacher, teacher uncle", said Permadi immediately. Locana nodded in agreement and Sadewa also agreed. The three of them immediately shot out rapidly towards the source of the sound it came from.
Ki Bengkong grinned broadly staring towards the thick puff of smoke that covered the entire place where Jaka Umbaran was. But it didn't last long. Within that thick puff of smoke, he could clearly see that there was a shadow figure standing upright within him.
"Devil base!! Apparently you can still stand up too huh.. Alright then, I will destroy your corpse so that even your family can not recognize it anymore!!", yelled Ki Bengkong while again smashing his palms into the shadow in the thick puff of smoke.
Whhhuuuggghhhh...
Blllaaaaaarrr blllaaaaaarrr blllaammmmmmm!!!
Three consecutive loud explosions were heard. The thick smoke that covered the entire place again thickened and soared high into the air. Ki Bengkong who was about to boast as a great swordsman, gasped when he saw Jaka Umbaran walking out of the thick puff of smoke.
"I have been patient enough.. Now it is my turn to attack" said Jaka Umbaran immediately. He quickly shook his hands. A small bluish-white light swiftly shot towards Ki Bengkong's chest. So fast, Ki Bengkong until no longer had time to avoid when the bluish white light hit his left chest translucent to the back.
As he turned his head down, suddenly there was fresh blood spurting out from the jackfruit seed-sized wound on his left chest. The cold started to feel. A moment later he fell to the ground. Slowly under his body, fresh blood welled up. He died bleeding.
At the same time, Sadewa, Permadi and Locana came to that place. The three immediately saw the scars of the fierce fight around the western boundary of the Yellow Kembang Duchy. In addition, there was a large tall man who was still prostrating on the ground. While not far from the big man, Jaka Umbaran slowly stood beside an old man's corpse.
"The back of Umbaran, are you okay?", asked Locana immediately.
"Tumben you're worried about my safety, Adhi Locana. What did you just eat?", said Jaka Umbaran with a faint smile.
"Aih Kakang Umbaran this could be joking at a crucial time like this..
This brother of yours is always worried about your safety. You're the one who always misunderstands what I do" Locana said as she scratched her itchy head suddenly.
Haha...
The sound of laughter escaped from the mouth of Jaka Umbaran, Sadewa and Permadi saw Locana's attitude like that. Indeed, since knowing that Jaka Umbaran was much stronger than previously thought, the thick-bodied man immediately respected the young man whose age was more worthy of being called this brother.
"Well, what about the fate of this great high?
Do we need to chop him up so as not to cause trouble later on?", Locana pointed towards the scared half-dead Gendol while prostrating on the ground without daring to raise her head. So afraid, the scalloped swordsman sparse and large wet his pants.
"Punish my life, Kanjeng Majikan Ndoro Pendekar. I'm kapok to be a lackey of nobility again. Please forgive my life. If you give up my life, I swear allegiance will be your follower" Gendol said with hope.
Mmmmmm...
Jaka Umbaran seemed silent for a moment to hear the words of Gendol. Sadewa soon approached her.
"Just forgive him Kakang..
If he wants to be your (personal errand boy), you have enough loyal followers that you can ask to lift heavy weights" whispered Sadewa immediately.
"alright..
I forgive your life, heh the great height. What's your name?", Jaka Umbaran stared at Gendol who was still prostrating on the ground.
"Hamba Gendol, Kanjeng Majikan Ndoro Pendekar.", replied Gendol who looked relieved to hear forgiveness from Jaka Umbaran.
"Okay Gendol, you can be my follower. But if you dare betray my trust, I will not hesitate to take your life.
Now get up, don't kowtow to me like a frightened chicken" Jaka Umbaran said immediately. Hearing the command, Gendol immediately rose up and saluted Jaka Umbaran.
"Thank you for the opportunity, Kanjeng Majikan Ndoro Pendekar. Gendol promises, will not betray and obey the orders of Kanjeng Majikan Ndoro Pendekar", promises Gendol while smiling to show off his rare teeth.
"Yes-yes, I trust you.
Hearing that, Gendol immediately stirred towards the small river that was not far from the place while Jaka Umbaran, Sadewa, Permadi and Locana laughed back and forth to see Gendol running fast while smothering his wet pants.
Together with Gendol, Jaka Umbaran and the students of Bukit Katong University returned to the palace of Kadipaten Kembang Kuning. Leaving the corpse of Ki Bengkong who was still lying covered with blood in that place.
Arriving at the palace, they were directly on the site by Dewi Seruni who had just paced in front of the palace gate so worried about the safety of Jaka Umbaran.
"The back of Umbaran, are you okay?", asked Dewi Seruni while paying attention to the condition of the young swordsman's body.
"As you can see, Princess Gusti. I'm fine", replied Jaka Umbaran while respecting Dewi Seruni.
"Thank God, Hyang Akarya Jagat will always protect every good people.
So who is this person?", Dewi Seruni pointed towards Gendol who was standing at the very back.
"long story..
But we'd better talk in the guest hall. Later I tell you everything", said Jaka Umbaran with a smile knot. Dewi Seruni nodded in understanding and they rushed into the western palace where the guest hall of honor was located.
In accordance with his promise, once the twilight disappeared in the western sky replaced by night, Dewi Seruni came again to the guest hall of honor. Curiosity with what had happened earlier this afternoon, made the daughter of the Duke of Yellow Flower was like a teenage girl who was in love drunk. He willingly quickly bathed in the princess, dressed up pretty as quickly as possible and returned to the hall of honor only to be able to hear the story of the handsome swordsman who had now been present in his heart.
"APPAAAAAAAAAAAAA????!!!
So this rare tooth is a mercenary Raden Sanjaya who was sent to harm you? Huhhhhh, why don't you just chop off Kakang's head?", Dewi Seruni immediately snickered the clerk at Gendol who sat cross-legged while bowing her head deeply.
"Prophey, Gusti Putri... Don't rush to punish this guy. He's just a man. I taught him a lesson and he admitted defeat. The servant was also prepared to make him my follower. So Gusti Putri Dewi Seruni did not need to bother to punish him anymore", Jaka Umbaran smiled meaningfully.
"Huhhhh...
If until you betray the trust of Kakang Umbaran, just watch out for you", threatened Dewi Seruni while glancing at Si Gendol.
"Dare not dare...
Forever Gendol follow Kanjeng Majikan Ndoro Pendekar Umbaran wherever he steps", said Gendol immediately.
"I hold your word...
Now I better teach Raden Sanjaya a lesson. The pretentious bastard who looks good must receive the right vengeance for his actions" said Dewi Seruni while clenching his hands tightly. He was very angry because there were people who dared to disturb Jaka Umbaran.
"That's enough, Gusti Putri..
I don't want to add any more enemies. Please Gusti Putri be patient. And let this matter pass you by" said the young swordsman, bowing respectfully to the sign of supplication.
"But..."
"The back of Umbaran is right, Gusti Putri. We came to this Yellow Flower Palace to befriend the people of the palace, not add enemies. Not that we are afraid of every crime, but we prefer that all problems be solved in a good way.
Please Gusti Putri Dewi Seruni understand our position now", Sadewa immediately bowed respectfully to Dewi Seruni. Permadi, Juwana, Locana, Surtikanti, Niluh Wuni, Sekar Kantil and the students of Katong Hill College immediately bowed to Dewi Seruni.
"Huh okay..
Since I look at you guys, I will release Raden Sanjaya this time. Next time I find him doing evil again, I will definitely not forgive him", said Dewi Seruni immediately. This Duchess of Dewanata truly showed herself to be a resolute and courageous noble daughter.
The day quickly changed. The next morning, the group of students from Katong Hill College left the Yellow Flower Duchy Palace after saying goodbye to Dewi Seruni. The princess did not look so willing to see the handsome man leaving the place.
"I will definitely stop by here again, if through this place, Gusti Putri", Jaka Umbaran smiled faintly.
"The back of the promise?", Dewi Seruni's eyes began to get wet with tears.
"May Hyang Agung give that opportunity. We excuse Gusti Putri", Jaka Umbaran immediately patted the back of his riding horse. The blackish-brown horse immediately ran away from the gate of the Kadipaten Kembang Kuning Palace. The disciples of Katong Hill School immediately followed the young swordsman's steps, leaving Dewi Seruni who continued to look at their departure with eyes that continued to be moistened by tears.
After leaving the western boundary of Kadipaten Kembang Kuning City, they continued to drive their horses as fast as possible across the highway that connects Kembang Kuning City to Pakuwon Weleri City. Coupled with Gendol's presence, the party rushed westward. After passing Wanua Kaliwungu, they continued to race their respective horses as if being chased by time. The dust of the streets flew with the footsteps of their horses hitting the road.
After noon, they entered Pakuwon Weleri City. Looking at their horses that had been exhausted after half a day's journey, Sadewa raised his right hand. All members of the group immediately pulled the reins of his horse until the group stopped at the boundary monument of Pakuwon Weleri City.
"We'll stop here for a second..
Our horses need to rest and eat grass" said Sadewa, the leader of the group immediately.
Everyone nodded in understanding. The foam in the corners of the horses mouth is indeed a marker that their horses have reached their limit. Soon they descended from their horses and led their mounts to the green grass that thrived beside a small river near the wide open rice fields.
A burly man who is being assigned to scout everything that is considered suspicious, for a moment continue to look towards the group before slowly leaving his hiding place towards the trees that thrive next to the boundary of Pakuwon Weleri City.
After a while, he approached a burly man who was lying on a banana tree.
"Gusti Bekel's.. Wake Gusti..
Gusti Bekel Raharja, quickly get up.!!", said the soldier slightly violently shaking the body of this man who was lying down. The burly man immediately opened his eyes.
"What's wrong? Why do you disturb my rest?", asked the burly man named Bekel Raharja while looking at the soldier's face with displeased eyes.
The soldier immediately saluted before speaking,
"A group of people dressed in sky blue were resting near the boundary of Pakuwon Weleri City. Servants are suspicious, lest they are...
The Blue Scorpion's Man".
