JAYABAYA: The Journey of Being a Legend
The Inciter

The Bald Eagle snorted loudly at the last sentence spoken by his password. After all, that person was the one who thwarted his grand plan to become the ruler of the Galuh Pakuan Kingdom territory under the control of the Black Straw. The alliance with Prabu Hyang Linggakancana was impossible to continue because it was tantamount to exposing their secrets. However, in the previous agreement, the Tanjung Sengguruh Palace also did not want to interfere if their rebellion failed.

"I can't possibly defeat that person with my own strength. I'd better get help from my brother Awang Bajra, the Demon-Eyed Killer Angel.

Stumped, Sajamarta..

The two of you followed me to the Geger Mountain Range in Pamarican", hearing the orders of the Bald Eagle, the two former Black Cuckoo subordinates immediately nodded in understanding. The three of them immediately rushed up their horses and spurred him as fast as possible towards the south. Although only with the illumination of the torch light that was in hand, the three who poulted the area were not difficult to travel.

By midnight, the three had reached the foot of Mount Geger Bentang which became the place of Padepokan Gunung Geger Bentang, one of the small silat colleges in the border area of Kawali and Mandala Tanjung Sengguruh. The three of them instantly steered their steeds through a path on the edge of a small forest. After a long time riding, they arrived at the gate Padepokan Gunung Geger Span. Two gate guards came straight in.

"Who are you and what do you want to come here?", asked one of the gatekeepers.

"I'm Somakarta, the younger brother of your teacher Akang Awang Bajra the Devil-Eyed Killer Angel.

Tell your teacher, I want to meet" said the Bald Eagle who has the original name Somakarta immediately after jumping down from his horse mount. Dunggul and Sajamarta followed the bald-headed middle-aged man.

One of the gatekeepers stared fixedly at the three of them before stepping inside. Soon after he had returned from the Padepokan Gunung Geger Span.

"Please Aki Somakarta. The teacher is waiting inside" said the gatekeeper of Mount Geger Landscape politely. Both of them immediately opened the wide gate of this silat padepokan and invited the Bald Eagle, Dunggul and Sajamarta to enter. The three headed straight towards the main hall of the silat college.

Once inside, a short-bearded, stocky old man with sharp eyes like an eagle was sitting cross-legged in the middle of the spacious place. Although only with the light illumination of castor oil lamps in some corners of the room, it is enough to make the entire room clearly visible. The old man with a height of about 1 spear was wearing gray clothes with a blue strangle, while on his back appeared a pair of different sword shapes hilt. One is holding the head of a white eagle while the other is shaped like a flat round like a silver kepeng money. The two weapons were a pair of swords that were quite famous in the martial world of the kulon region, namely the White Eagle Sword and the Hell's Radiant Sword.

Ummm ehheemmm..

"Come in, Somakarta..."

Hearing the words of the short-bearded old man, Somakarta The Bald Eagle with Dunggul and Sajamarta immediately stepped closer to the person who was none other than Awang Bajra the Demon-Eyed Killing Angel, who was the first to be killed by the demon, a swordsman who was very scared by the residents around the border Kawali and Tanjung Sengguruh because of his cruelty.

"Akang Awang, my goal is to come here to ask for your help..

If Akang is willing to do so, there are 200 gold pieces as wages for the aid that Akang gives. Is Akang Awang Bajra willing to do it?", said Somakarta Si Elang Bald frankly.

Mmmmmm..

"You who are famous as a stingy and miserly person, willing to spend that much money is definitely not the easy help you want, is not it?

Just tell me frankly what exactly do you want? If I can, I won't mind doing what you want" Awang Bajra, the Demon-Eyed Killer Angel, said as he clenched his hand. There was a rumbling sound from the swordsman's fist.

"Akang Awang just needs to kill someone. That's all I want" replied Somakarta The Bald Eagle immediately.

"Who's the guy? Don't you also have enough magic? Why should you ask me for help?", said Awang Bajra immediately. He began to be suspicious of his younger brother's wishes.

"Eh that..

"The one who can take the life of a Black Cockroach?

The old jackfruit was high-scientific, not haphazardly swordsman could touch his skin. If he alone managed to kill her, that means I can not necessarily kill him, Bald Eagle", said Awang Bajra a little loudly. Honestly, he knew quite well about the Black Cuckoo, knowing how high the old man's magic was. Although the Black Hornet could not die, but his other canuragan science is not too high so he is still able to fight against him. If there was anyone who could take his life, of course he had the knowledge that could render Ajian Rawa Ronthek helpless and this was terrifying.

"Eh if only just beat the Black Cuckoo I will not take revenge on him, Akang..

But the man had insulted the kulon warriors by saying that the warriors in this region were nothing. This makes me so angry with him", Somakarta The White Eagle attempts to incite Awang Bajra The Demon-Eyed Killer Angel.

"What do you say?!!

How insolent of him! We don't let him talk arbitrarily about the swordsman of the kulon region. It's a big insult. I will never be able to forgive him!", Awang Bajra, the Demon-Eyed Killer Angel who is famous for its easy-to-heat blood, was immediately enraged to hear the speech of the Bald Eagle. The bald-headed old warrior managed to make the leader of Mount Geger Potang Padepokan was furious. Seeing all that, the Bald Eagle slightly lowered his head to hide the sneaky grin on his face.

"Where is that person now?", asked Awang Bajra, the Demon-Eyed Killer Angel.

"He stayed overnight at an inn in the east of Pakuwon City Banjar Pataruman, Akang..

If we don't get there fast, I'm afraid if he first runs away towards Paguhan area before taking responsibility for all his sting talk", replied The Bald Eagle immediately.

"Tonight, take me to Somakarta. I'll make him regret what he did. Let's go.", having said so, Awang Bajra immediately got up from his seat and walked out from inside the main hall of Padepokan Gunung Geger Span. Somakarta The Bald Eagle rushed to follow the steps of the Demon-Eyed Killer Angel with his two followers. Without waiting for a long time, the four of them immediately rushed towards Pakuwon City Banjar Pataruman.

By morning they arrived in the city of Banjar Pataruman. The city on the banks of the mouth of the Cipakancilan River before joining the Citanduy River is a tarum producing area or indigo dye on a large enough cloth in the southern region of the Galuh Pakuan Kingdom. In this small town there is some tarum processing before becoming a natural dye of cloth that is sought by weavers in the region of Galuh Pakuan Kingdom to Mandala or its colonies.

Somakarta immediately invited Awang Bajra to the inn where Jaka Umbaran, Nyai Larasati, Dewi Rengganis and Resi Simharaja were located. Just as Awang Bajra was about to act, the Bald Eagle hurriedly prevented.

"There's Somakarta? Why are you blocking my intentions?", Awang Bajra looked at his junior sister with a clueless look.

"Sorry Akang Awang..

But right now I'm being hunted by the Kotaraja Kawali government. If we make a fuss here, the Galuh Pakuan soldiers will come soon and this will be very troublesome. We better intercept the Umbaran Jaka near the Citanduy River. What do you think?", asked Somakarta The Bald Eagle immediately.

"Huhhhhh, you coward!

You have the money, you have the power. I follow what you want" said Awang Bajra a little disappointed. Hearing the answer, Somakarta Si Elang Bald immediately took Awang Bajra to the banks of the Citanduy River near the crossing pier to Wanua Wanareja which entered the territory of the Kingdom of Panjalu. Meanwhile, Sajamarta was in charge of scouting the inn while Dunggul gathered their friends in their hiding place.

As the sun rose to the eastern sky, Jaka Umbaran and his friends left the inn in the eastern city of Pakuwon Banjar Pataruman. They run their horses each towards the crossing pier that connects the Galuh Pakuan Kingdom and Panjalu through Wanua Wanareja. This pedestrian pier is the only one that is closest because the others are enough to pass through.

Just before entering the banks of the Citanduy River, there appeared a few people who immediately surrounded them. Jaka Umbaran had recognized one of them as the leader of the rebel forces who fled. Jaka Umbaran let out a cold snort as he asked,

"What do you want?"
