"Poisons???
What poison is in the body of my daughter, Tabib Sakti?", asked Prince Rakeyan Jayagiri as he looked at the face of Buyut Wangsanaya The One-Handed Physician Sakti immediately.
"Please forgive Gusti Prince..
This was not an ordinary poison but a magic poison sent by a stoic shaman. The name of this magic poison is Teluh Kalawisa Poison. Anyone who is affected, will experience a decrease in endurance, his body is like fainting but is actually still conscious, his mind and soul are in the shackles of a chain of supernatural that slowly erodes his soul until the victim will be killed after 40 days.
In a word, Gusti Putri Padmadewi was hit by a mouth or witch sent by a sick person to her", said Buyut Wangsanaya with a long sigh.
Hearing this description, both Prince Rakeyan Jayagiri and Wife Nararya Citradewi Sang Mayang Galuh immediately looked at each other. The two immediately examined various events that occurred lately to guess who the perpetrator of the sender of the witchcraft on his eldest daughter. His second thought was immediately fixed on the incident two full moons ago.
"Prabu Pule Baas from Nusa Kambangan.", said Nararya Citradewi Sang Mayang Galuh and Crown Prince Rakeyan Jayagiri together.
"Yes he must be the perpetrator of this user-sender, Tabib Sakti. There is no mistaking it", added Prince Rakeyan Jayagiri quickly.
"Hamba does not understand what Gusti Pangeran's words mean", Buyut Wangsanaya bowed respectfully to Prince Rakeyan Jayagiri after saying so.
"This is the story..
Two full moons ago, came a group of people who claimed to be emissaries from Prabu Pule Baas from Nusa Kambangan. One of them is Patih Widura who became the leader of the group. I welcome them well. Even Mangkubumi Ranayasa also existed at that time.
After talking for a while, Patih Widura conveyed the intention of their arrival to Kawali. They conveyed the intention of Prabu Pule Baas, the Ruler of Nusa Kambangan Island Kingdom who wanted to propose my Princess Padmadewi to be made empress. Of course I cannot accept this because I have an agreement with Kangmas Prabu Bameswara from Panjalu that one day if our daughter's son has grown up, one of them we will match so that our two kingdoms remain connected with the bond of family.
Hearing my rejection, Patih Widura was angry but did nothing but utter threatening words that said that I would regret what I said one day. After saying so, Patih Widura withdrew immediately. Two weeks after that, suddenly Princess Padmadewi collapsed during dinner together at the gym and never woke up again until now. If the time is calculated, then it is certainly the work of Prabu Pule Baas from Nusa Kambangan, Tabib Sakti", said Prince Rakeyan Jayagiri ended the story of the beginning of the incident of the pain of the eldest daughter.
"Do the Tabib Sakti have no way to cure my daughter's illness?", asked Nararya Citradewi Sang Mayang Galuh after seeing Buyut Wangsanaya appear to wipe his short beard. He really hoped that his eldest daughter would get well soon.
"Although I can't cure Gusti Putri Padmadewi, Gusti Putri Mahkota is calm" Buyut Wangsanaya said with a smile.
"What do you mean, Physician Sakti?
Honestly I don't understand what you're talking about", Prince Rakeyan Jayagiri looked at the old face of Buyut Wangsanaya. The stocky old man tends to be fat with a slightly distended stomach that really makes him confused.
"Hamba can't cure magic poison like this, Gusti Prince but there are others who can do it.
If Gusti the Crown Prince wants to know who the person is, let's go ahead", saying so, Buyut Wangsanaya immediately hinted for Crown Prince Rakeyan Jayagiri to step first to the porch of his residence. Without waiting any longer, Prabu Bameswara's half-sister from Panjalu also rushed out of the bedroom room Princess Padmadewi followed by Buyut Wangsanaya. Leaving Crown Princess Nararya Citradewi Sang Mayang Galuh guarding her eldest daughter.
The arrival of Prince Rakeyan Jayagiri and Buyut Wangsanaya made everyone surprised except Jaka Umbaran who was still calm.
"Where is the man who will heal my daughter, the Physician? Quickly say", said Prince Rakeyan Jayagiri impatiently wanted to know. Hearing that, Buyut Wangsanaya immediately turned his head towards Jaka Umbaran.
"Backer of Lawu Mountain, I need your help".
Jaka Umbaran immediately saluted Prince Rakeyan Jayagiri before rising from his seat after Buyut Wangsanaya spoke.
"This is the man whom I told you earlier Gusti Prince. His name is Jaka Umbaran the Pendekar Gunung Lawu. Gusti Pangeran certainly had heard of him recently, right?", said Buyut Wangsanaya immediately reminded Prince Rakeyan Jayagiri about the news of the martial world that had been reported on him a few days ago. Suddenly he looked at the handsome face of Jaka Umbaran, looking at him from head to toe.
"You sure you can cure the magic poison in my daughter's body?", asked Prince Rakeyan Jayagiri as if doubting the ability possessed by Jaka Umbaran.
"Hamba will try, Gusti Prince", replied Jaka Umbaran politely.
"Well, if you succeed in healing Padmadewi, I will give you a great gift, young man.
Now you follow me. Physician Sakti, you also come", after saying that, Crown Prince Rakeyan Jayagiri immediately stepped into the palace. Buyut Wangsanaya and Jaka Umbaran immediately tailed behind him.
After getting permission from Prince Rakeyan Jayagiri, Jaka Umbaran immediately approached the bed. Both of his palms were cupped in front of his chest. A moment later he closed his eyes, concentrating on the Wijayakusuma Flower that was residing in his body. Slowly a reddish white light was created in the palm of Jaka Umbaran's hand.
Prince Rakeyan Jayagiri who saw it was all amazed by the ability possessed by the Swordsman of Mount Lawu.
'This young man is really high-scientific. I'm really stupid to have underestimated her'
After the Vijayakusuma Flower appeared in his palm, Jaka Umbaran opened his eyes and placed the Vijayakusuma Flower on the forehead of Princess Padmadewi. Instantly, the thick and cold black air was sucked into the Vijayakusuma Flower. When the last pitch black air enters, one lower petal of the Vijayakusuma Flower falls out and disappears.
Slowly the eyes of Princess Padmadewi opened. When he saw a handsome face standing so close to her, the beautiful face of the princess of Galuh Pakuan Kingdom was immediately flushed red like a boiled crab. Jaka Umbaran who just took the Vijayakusuma Flower from the forehead of Princess Padmadewi immediately save it. As soon as the form of the Wijayakusuma Flower disappeared, Jaka Umbaran immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"Magic, what a miracle..
You are really great as a story that circulated widely in the martial world, Pendekar Gunung Lawu", praised Rakeyan Jayagiri while smiling widely.
"The servant is only an ordinary man, Gusti Prince. Helping the needy is already part of the task given by the servant teacher", replied Jaka Umbaran remained in humble language.
"We'll just talk outside. Padmadewi has just recovered, let her rest first.
Dinda Citrawati, please take care of your child" said Prince Rakeyan Jayagiri before stepping out of the bedroom of Princess Padmadewi along with Jaka Umbaran and Buyut Wangsanaya.
After they came out, Putri Padmadewi turned to her mother who was sitting on the edge of her bed.
"Mother Queen, who was that young man?", the tail of Princess Padmadewi's eyes kept glancing towards the door of the room.
"He's your lifesaver, my daughter. Why is it?", the maternal instinct of Nararya Citradewi Sang Mayang Galuh immediately guessed what was being felt by her daughter. He also admitted that the good looks of Jaka Umbaran are indeed far above average.
"Ah ti-it's okay. I-I just asked", Padmadewi directly lowered her head deeply so that the red tinge on her cheek was not visible to the mother.
"Hehehehe, apparently my daughter is an adult now. Can feel the same feelings of the opposite sex", as well as Crown Princess Citrawati as she chuckles little to see the bashful attitude of her eldest daughter's cat.
Meanwhile, arriving at the porch of the family residence of Crown Prince Galuh Pakuan, he said, Prince Rakeyan Jayagiri who wanted to talk about the gift to be given to Jaka Umbaran was surprised by the arrival of a Wado (a leader of soldiers at the level of Demung in Panjalu ) who came in a hurry.
"What's Wado Karta? Why did you come without being called?", asked Prince Rakeyan Jayagiri immediately.
"Please forgive Gusti Prince.
Rebel forces have besieged Kotaraja Kawali. Some Nunambursi and Mantri were facing them west of the Kotaraja gate", Wado Karta reported immediately.
Like a lightning bolt in broad daylight, Prince Rakeyan Jayagiri was surprised not to play to hear the report. He really did not expect that the arrival of the Black Jerangkong-led rebels masterminded by Prabu Hyang Linggakancana from Tanjung Sengguruh would be this fast.
Everyone in that place including Nyai Larasati, Dewi Rengganis, Red Devils, Blue Devils and Resi Simharaja was shocked not to play when they heard the report of the leader of the Galuh Pakuan warriors.
"Bad!!
They really dare to challenge the authority of the Kotaraja Kawali Government. This cannot be left alone" said Prince Rakeyan Jayagiri, clenching his hands tightly.
"The situation out there is very dangerous, I beg Gusti Prince and his family to immediately get out of the palace", Pinta Wado Karta immediately.
"I'm not going anywhere, Wado Karta. I will defend this palace until my last blood" said Rakeyan Jayagiri immediately. He then turned his head towards Jaka Umbaran and his comrades before saying,
"Pendekar Gunung Lawu and the swordsman brother of the martial world all of them,
Can you help me again?"
