Bayu and Grandpa Wisesa

"The magician exists, and it can be used to change destiny!"

Sari and Doni looked at each other, "W-what do you mean? Change what, destiny?" Sari stuttered in disbelief, 

"I didn't hear wrong, did I? Mustika the destiny changer?" Sari repeated her question.

Bayu looked at Sari and scratched her head. Confused where to start.

"Mustika Witch there is only one in the world. For centuries it never changed hands. Mustika The witch disappeared after her owner moksha," 

Bayu then explains that the witch mustika is an heirloom guarded by a race of witches since it was created and is the only relic of the sacred witches who devote themselves to the One. They are called witches.

Mustika which is formed from reddish-yellow rocks and numbered 99 was never used because it was considered forbidden. It is said that the heirloom can change one's destiny by running from one destiny to another.

"So the heirloom disappeared?" Sari was disappointed to hear that.

"Don't disappear completely, a new destiny will bring it back to life but where and who deserves it I can't be sure." 

"If the mustika disappeared following its deceased creator, is there any possibility that the heirloom existed in the underworld?" Sari tried to assume.

Bayu shook his head, "Okay, I don't know for sure either."

"Who's Bay's owner, you know?"

Bayu got up from his seat and went back to his god fish pond.

"His name is Welas Jati, the daughter of mpu Sapta jati and creator of the book Dead which is contested by the demon nation."

"Wait for Mercy, does she have anything to do with Asih Jati, the wife of Damar?" 

"Yes, Welas is the twin brother of Asih Jati. Compassionate, Asih and also Damar have a mission to save Mpu Sapta."

"Sapta has been held in prison for centuries with very tight security,"

"The demon king is holding Sapta back? Is that as great as he is?"

"Mpe Sapta was the greatest heirloom maker of his time. He often hunts spiritual beings in the black forest to fill the navel. Every heirloom he makes has its own privileges. That's why the demon lord took hostage and held Sapta's mpu to obtain his seven legendary heirlooms."

"Is there anything else to ask? Before I go see that rancid grandpa!"

"You want to see him? Want to get angry at him?" Sari asked skeptically.

"No, I want to play chess! A battle of strategies to take care of you and also the Abisatya clan!" Bayu's smile was slightly inflated.

"Trah Abisatya is one of the witch clans, isn't it?" sari's question was answered with a nod to Bayu's plan. Now Sari understood the reason Pandji was so special and his body was targeted by the demon clan.

"Pandji has the blood of a witch from Abisatya and the knight of Ganendra, it's only fitting that he so quickly mastered various kinds of magic spells."

"You're right, his body is also special because it was born right on the day of Satan's glory. It's a pity that his age isn't enough to be able to accept all of his powers perfectly." Bayu conjunct Sari's sentence.

"Not old enough already has that much power? Beb, what if we also recruit Pandji to help?" Doni proposed something that Sari might be able to consider.

"Hmm, I don't know .. I doubt that Al would allow that. All I need for the time being is Mika, an unusual eye can help me find Airlangga."

After a little talk and looking for some important information about the mustika witch Sari and Doni returned to the human world. After Sari's death, Bayu was dumbstruck in front of the pool alone.

He noticed a number of his favorite god fish that moved here and there gracefully, but Bayu's silence was not without reason. His eyes caught the figure hiding in the water.

The movement of the originally calm and graceful godfish slowly began to fidget, the pond water suddenly just gave rise to a small vortex. Bayu grinned.

"Old man, come out!"

Grandpa Wisesa's small laughter sounded. "I'm busted!"

"Are you not ashamed of your age? Play hide and seek? Need to exercise until you have to swim with my favorite fish?!" ask Bayu a little rough.

"Hey, don't say it like that Bayu! Our age is just a little different!" Grandpa Wisesa emerged from the fish pond in wet clothes. He was a little troubled when going out of the pond because some fish god who was disturbed mengurutinya.

"You don't want to help me a rancid boy!" Grandpa Wisesa reached out to Bayu.

"Cck, you're a very troublesome old geezer!" Bayu Cibir. He helped Wisesa's grandfather out of his fish pond. "See if one of my favorite fish dies from the smell of your body you'll have to pay for it with 100 gold coins!" Bayu threatens Wisesa's grandfather.

"Well, how dare you threaten me! I am your senior! But, is that how expensive these fish are?" wisesa's grandfather frowned at the thought of having to pay 100 gold coins.

"You said we were a little different now why say you're my senior!"

"Hey, you forgot your debt to me Bayu! If I hadn't saved you from Siliwangi's pet tiger and asked for forgiveness from Sang Prabu, you wouldn't be here!" Wisesa's grandfather brings up memories of their past.

"But who lured me until I disturbed the maung of the prabu? You forgot old grandpa's memory!" Bayu did not want to lose the argument.

"You ..," Wisesa's grandfather was suddenly at a loss for words, he broke off his intention to prolong the useless debate.

"Aaah, alright .. alright, I'm wrong! At least I'm still sane not to bother people's wives back then!"

Bayu growled with restraint, his memory drifting hundreds of years ago. If only he had not fallen in love with Raden Ayu Kusumawardani, Bayu would definitely not have been in the guard dimension. 

Young Bayu falls in love with the wrong person and time. He anchored his heart to the noble wife of Pajajaran, who turned out to be one of the descendants of the Prabu. Despite knowing if his love is taboo, young Bayu still recklessly nurtures a sense of wrong target.

Various efforts he made so that Raden Ayu Kusumawardhani fell into his arms. Bayu's behavior finally reached the ears of the Prabu, he was angry and sent one of his confidants to teach Bayu a lesson.

Bayu with the knowledge he had at that time almost died in the attack of the beloved maung prabu. Wisesa's grandfather came and saved her life. He begged Bayu's forgiveness for the Prabu. Wisesa's grandfather at that time was still one of the trusted advisors of Sang Prabu.

Wisesa's grandfather guarantees that Bayu will always be under his supervision and will not interfere with the life of Raden Ayu Kusumawardani. The wise Prabu finally forgives Bayu but on certain conditions. In the end, Sang Prabu punished Bayu to meditate for 300 years and live the destiny as the guardian of the Siliwangi breed.

The punishment was not without reason, Bayu so loved his daughter that he was punished to keep the descendants of the Prabu and forbidden to love the women of his descendants. Punishment that looks light but very torturing Bayu.

Love is never wrong because love is a powerful blessing, but it is the longing that puts love in the wrong person and time.

Bayu heaved a heavy sigh Grandpa Wisesa reminded him of the old wound. His anger was stirring but Bayu tried to hold back.

He left the old grandfather. Bayu wants to calm down for a moment, forget his bad love memories.

"Hey, Bayu! Where are you going?" Grandpa Wisesa panicked because Bayu left her without speaking.

Bayu did not answer he kept his feet going. "Hey, you rancid boy!" Grandpa Wisesa again exclaimed but Bayu still did not respond.

"Iissh, the rancid boy just said that he's been lashing out!" grumbled the grandfather who finally caught up with Bayu.

"Hey, kid!" Wisesa's grandfather patted Bayu's shoulder asking him to stop, Bayu did not heed Wisesa's grandfather's call he continued to step.

"Aaaah, alright .. alright I admit wrong! I'm sorry! Listen to me, we need to talk about something important!" 

Bayu remained silent, he was lazy to deal with the rancid grandfather who just casually went into his fish pond.

"Hey, you hear me?" Grandpa Wisesa was getting upset.

"Iiish, this boy did I have to humble myself to him first and he just wanted to listen to me!" He returned to grumbling.

Wisesa's grandfather likened the move to Bayu, then violently stopped the guard of the Siliwangi breed by pulling his hand.

"Listen to me, this concerns Sari's fight with Airlangga! We have to help her!"

Bayu finally stopped he looked at Grandpa Wisesa and waited for an explanation from her.

"Mustika Witch, I had to tell her. That's Sari's only hope!"

"You know it's a forbidden heirloom! It cannot be abused! It can poison the human mind to do something dangerous. Destiny is strictly forbidden!" 

"You think I don't know about it?" Grandpa Wisesa asked skeptically. "Sari's fight will be very dangerous and it will be very difficult to stop until one of them dies. The only way is to use the magician's mustika to change destiny." Wisesa's grandfather continued with a serious look.

Bayu looked into old grandfather Wisesa's eyes for a moment, what Wisesa's grandfather said was true but once again changing fate was extremely dangerous. "Then, how should we do?"

"Destiny will bring Sari to the new owner, and Sari must choose which destiny she will change. But it's gonna have a big impact on his life."

"He can lose everything he has when or choose his past destiny!" Grandpa Wisesa shut her mouth waiting for a reply from Bayu.

"That would be a very difficult choice for Sari." Bayu responds without turning his face away from Wisesa's grandfather.

"Well, it will be very difficult but his decision will also change the fate of mankind! We can't let the human world be destroyed because of the selfishness of two immortal beings, can we?"

"This time I agree with you granny!" A smile appeared on Bayu's lips.

"Then we agree!" Wisesa's grandfather was relieved, he then took out a small box from behind his shirt. "Give this to Sari!"

Bayu frowned and opened the box. Two small golden capsules. "What's this?"

"He will need it when that time comes. When the portals of time and place open simultaneously, the most critical moment in destiny. His true desire would be to choose which destiny to replace!"

"That sounds awful!" Bayu smiled wryly and closed the box. He then tucked it inside the shirt, kept it and would give the box to Sari one day.

"So, are we playing chess now?" Sneers of jokes grandpa Wisesa expands. Bayu chuckles at her.

"Well, are you eavesdropping?"

"Hey what do you think I'm hiding and freezing in your fish pond for?!"

"Hhhm, I don't know if you're talking to them? Looking for a mate, or maybe …,"

"Bas based on a crazy boy! Your fish are all males I'm still sane, you idiot!" Wisesa's grandfather hits Bayu's shoulder and arm in annoyance. While Bayu chuckles and continues to tease the old Grandpa who feels at home alone for the rest of his life.

Their laughter continued to sound throughout the day. Sometimes releasing tension is also necessary, right? Before their task of supervising and guarding the almighty battle of two immortal beings takes place.
