JAYABAYA: The Journey of Being a Legend
Clues

Begawan Sidicarita smiled widely when he heard Landungseta ask this question. In the vision of his sharp inner eyes, this long-bearded old man could indeed see clearly that the figure of this handsome young man who was behind Landungseta and Mustikaweni had a blue bloodline. Moreover, the unusual aura emanating out from the body of this young swordsman looked majestic and authoritative.

"You're not yet the time to know more, Landungseta. You have to learn more in the future.

Gusti Prince uh now you have the name Jaka Umbaran yes, please enter", said Begawan Sidicarita as he turned towards his seat in the building Pendopo Hertamana Dihyang.

At once, Landungseta and Mustikaweni immediately turned to Jaka Umbaran. Gendol who also still did not understand, immediately scratched his head which suddenly felt itchy while Resi Simharaja only slightly raised the corner of his lips.

"Decamp Jaka Umbaran, are you really a prince?", asked Landungseta immediately.

"That's me I don't know myself, Brother Landungseta..

We better ask your teacher what exactly he wants to say. Lets... ", Jaka Umbaran immediately stepped in the direction where Begawan Sidicarita sat cross-legged. They soon followed the young warrior's steps.

After the five people sat down cross-legged neatly, some cantrik came to light the castor oil lamp hanging on the support pole of this large building. Red light soon spread, expelling the dark night that began to envelop the Dieng Plateau area.

"No need to hesitate to ask, Gusti Prince..

You must have been very curious why I call you Gusti Prince, right?", said Begawan Sidicarita with a faint smile when he saw Jaka Umbaran sitting cross-legged on his right.

"It seems Begawan could see something that others didn't know. Honestly, I was very curious about the name because I myself was looking for the existence of the figure of my parents Begawan.

Could Begawan Sidicarita be able to help me?", asked Jaka Umbaran immediately.

"Hehehe...

Of course I wouldn't mind helping you find your origins, Gusti Prince. However, I have a condition that you must accept if you want me to tell you about your origin", hearing Begawan Sidicarita's reply, Jaka Umbaran immediately nodded in understanding.

"I accept any conditions from Begawan Sidicarita, as long as I can know who my parents really are" said Jaka Umbaran immediately.

"Then at midnight, you come back here again. The terms I'll let you know when you get here.

Now rest first. All of you have just traveled a long way", after saying so, suddenly a thin white smoke appeared around the body of Begawan Sidicarita. A moment later, he had already disappeared from everyone's sight along with a cold wind that was rustling slowly.

After that, Landungseta immediately drove Jaka Umbaran and friends to a hut not far from the place. The place is usually used as a resting place for pilgrims from the surrounding residents who want to worship the God Ganesha in the Temple that we know today as Arjuna Temple as well as the statues of other gods in several other temples around the Dihyang Hermitage.

Soon they entered to protect their bodies from the cold air of the Dieng Plateau region. Not long after, came some Dihyang Hermitage cantrik who brought some food as a filler for their stomachs.

The night kept crawling up. The Dieng Plateau area air is getting colder as it nears midnight. Resi Simharaja was seen closing his eyes while sitting cross-legged while Gendol sleeps curled up on the dry grass that became his bed. Jaka Umbaran, who had just finished his semedi, got up from his seat. Without a single sound, he stepped out from within the hut towards the Dihyang Hermit's patron.

Arriving there, Begawan Sidicarita stood behind him. The light of the moon approaching the full moon was brightly visible above the sky.

"Are you ready on the terms I have proposed, Gusti Prince?", said Begawan Sidicarita without turning back.

"I'm ready to qualify as you want, Begawan" said Jaka Umbaran steady.

"Good, that decisiveness is needed someday Gusti Prince. As the incarnation of Lord Vishnu, you must be able to be firm against everything that can damage the natural order.

Now follow my steps", after saying so, Begawan Sidicarita darted rapidly westward. Jaka Umbaran also immediately exert the science of lightening his body to be able to pursue the rapid movement of the old man.

Swwooosshhhhh!!!

"This is Tuk Bima Lukar. This is the starting point of Kali Serayu. Here is also a place that has the power of linuwih that can be used to improve your devotion, Gusti Prince.

My condition is that you have to master some of my science if you want me to tell you a clue as to who your real parents are. If you're willing, soak in this Bima Lukar Curry because this is the only thing that can dampen the heat from Ajian Brajamusti that I'm going to lower on you", said Begawan Sidicarita while staring at Jaka Umbaran.

Without being ordered twice, Jaka Umbaran immediately entered into this spring. The cold feeling like freezing bones and muscles immediately attacked the entire body of the young swordsman as he buried his body to the extent of the neck inside Tuk Bima Lukar. Jaka Umbaran must exert all his energy in order to survive in the cold water of this spring.

After that, Begawan Sidicarita komat kamit recited the mantra. From his right palm, radiating out a bright blue light with a scorching heat. So hot that the cold around the place seemed to be swallowed up by the heat of the bright blue light. Quickly, Begawan Sidicarita immediately put his palm to the crown of the head of Jaka Umbaran. The bright blue light immediately spread throughout the body of the Swordsman of Mount Lawu.

A burning heat immediately spread throughout Jaka Umbaran's body. The cold weather of Tuk Bima Lukar that had made her shiver cold, now it actually feels like a stinging heat barrier from Ajian Brajamusti that radiates to every skin pore to the bone. Even the young swordsman was sweating even though in a soaking position inside Tuk Bima Lukar.

Almost as long as a rice cooker spent receiving the Ajian Brajamusti derivative. After feeling enough, Begawan Sidicarita immediately released his right palm from the crown of Jaka Umbaran's head and set his breath. While Jaka Umbaran himself immediately opened his eyes and slowly stood up and then came out of the small pond Tuk Bima Lukar.

"You're amazing, Gusti Prince..

You were able to accept Ajian Brajamusti without the slightest difficulty. What a true incarnation of Lord Vishnu", praise Begawan Sidicarita while smiling knots.

"I should be thanking Begawan Sidicarita for being willing to pass down a high level of canuragan science to me.

Now, what are the clues about the whereabouts of my parents that Begawan Sidicarita can say?", said Jaka Umbaran immediately.

"Patience, this is just the beginning. After it's all finished, I'll definitely give you a clear clue. Now we go back to the hermitage. The next day we continue again", a thin fog immediately covers the entire body of Begawan Sidicarita and a blink of an eye then he has disappeared from the eyes of Jaka Umbaran.

Mmmmmm..

"It seems that I must indeed be patient waiting for the instructions given by Begawan Sidicarita. I also have nothing to lose waiting because there is a profit that I get. I must return immediately to Dihyang Hermitage.."

After that, Jaka Umbaran immediately darted towards the Dihyang Hermitage. While moving quickly, he deployed one-third of the canuragan knowledge he had just obtained. As a result, the heat coming out of Jaka Umbaran body can dry his clothes.

Time is rolling fast. Jaka Umbaran decided to stay temporarily at Dihyang Hermitage. Resi Simharaja did not mind but Gendol grumbled inwardly as he could not stand the cold air of the place.

After undergoing the same day as yesterday at the Dihyang Hermitage, on the night of the next day, Begawan Sidicarita again continued the decline of high level canuragan on Jaka Umbaran. Tonight he lowered the Wind God Ajian Step on that disciple of Maharesi Siwamurti. This Ajian could make Jaka Umbaran's movements as fast as lightning, could run like flying over the ground and his body could be as light as cotton. Of course, this kanuragan science is very suitable as a support for Jaka Umbaran who has Ajian Guntur Saketi.

"I think the science of magic that I have passed on to you is enough to help you, Gusti Prince. But there is one study that becomes the ultimate science of Lord Vishnu's incarnation in your body that still needs to be resurrected.

Only the Bagaspati Maharesi at Harinjing Hermitage is able to open the lock on the chakra-shaped birthmark on your right back so you can use it. Look for him, and tell him that I told you to come to him" said Begawan Sidicarita after lowering the Ajian Step of the Wind God on Jaka Umbaran.

"Thank you for all the magic that Begawan Sidicarita put down on me. I will remember all the instructions that Begawan gave me", said Jaka Umbaran as he bowed respectfully to Begawan Sidicarita.

Hearing that answer, Begawan Sidicarita smiled widely. He seemed to take a deep breath before saying,

"Now is the time for me to keep my promise to you, Gusti Prince. I won't reveal the whole secret of your life, but you're about time to find out, even if only partially.

Come to Kotaraja Daha and meet Gusti Prabu Bameswara, Maharaja of Panjalu. Show Gusti Prabu Bameswara about the blue embroidered Ardhachandralancana you have, as well as the silver necklace with the gold pendant on it.

He will tell you who your parents really are", Jaka Umbaran gasped when he heard the word coming out of Begawan Sidicarita's mouth. Unable to cover up her curiosity, she immediately asked,

"Are my parents noble, Begawan?"
