" What's the matter Senggani, why do you look so moody,.?" tanya Sari Kemuning's.
Senopati Sandi Yuda Demak's wife saw that as long as the husband returned and found out that his uncle was dead, he seemed changed, looking often aloof.
After hearing a question from his wife , Raka Senggani got up from her seat and walked down from the pendopo of Ki Jagabaya's house, her home-in-law.
He walked and went down to the courtyard of the house while staring at the house of Ki Bekel and the banjar of Kenanga village.
Sari Kemuning followed from behind as the husband continued to step and stopped at a sapodilla tree trunk.
" Kemuning, does Kenanga still often do exercises in the village banjar,..?" ask Raka Senggani.
And answered by a nod of the head from Sari Kemuning.
" Nearly every night kakang, and who became his coach is Dewi Dwarani, Kakang,.why do the kakang ask this,..?"
Behind Sari Kemuning who asked, as if there was something strange with the question from her husband. He felt that as a Senopati Sandi of course the husband will conduct an investigation into the death of his uncle.
" Kemuning, if the youths and bodyguards are still practicing every night, how brave, the person committed murder against Uncle Raka Jang, is he not afraid of the guards of this Kenanga village, he said, or indeed he has a very high knowledge so as not to see the presence of the guards here, said Raka Senggani.
He then turned his body and walked back into the pendopo while sitting again.
" Maybe it's true that brother said, Kemuning also felt so , even he did not feel there were both of us here, of course he would think can beat us both easily,.." answer Sari Kemuning.
The remark from Sari Kemuning was asserted by Raka Senggani, that the person who had killed his uncle was a man who had a very high knowledge so he concluded, he concluded,. with added information from his wife, Sari Kemuning ,..Raka Senggani has felt there is one of his enemies who still hold embers of revenge to him, he guessed several names that might do this and eventually fell to one name.
" Hahhh, is that person Mpu Loh Brangsang, Kemuning,.he who killed Uncle Raka Jang,..?" ask Raka Senggani.
" Maybe also kakang, but all this time, both we with Dewi Dwarani and the guards did not see any strangers entering Kenanga village,..!" sari Kemuning explained.
Raka Senggani then told his wife that the ruler of Mount Merapi was indeed very high in his knowledge, he could be in this Kenanga village without anyone knowing clearly.
And from that day on, Senopati Sandi Yuda Demak had the view that he would again clash with Mpu Loh Brosangsang of Mount Merapi.
He also explained that at this time the Kingdom of Demak was uncertain, so he felt the need to resign from the army of the Kingdom of Demak.
" Why did Senggani's brother have to get out of Demak's army, is it because the second Kanjeng Gusti Sultan Demak died,...?" tanya Sari Kemuning's.
" True Kemuning, because the one who has raised Kakang as a Senopati is Kanjeng Gusti Prince Sabrang Lor, who has been appointed as a Senopati, is Kanjeng Gusti Prince Sabrang Lor, and he was also the one who had entrusted Senggani's brother to become a Senopati Sandi Yuda Demak instead of Kanjeng Gusti Pangeran Trenggana who has now become a King in Demak this,.." raka Senggani.
Obviously from his tone he was less happy towards Sultan Trenggana who had become a King in this Demak kingdom.
Raka Senggani told his wife, he will come out of Demak and will devote himself to the Duchy of Pajang only.
" If Kanjeng Gusti Sinuwun asks Uncle Tumenggung Bahu Reksa, who is the man who has led the forces of Sandi Yuda Demak, what will kakang say,..?" ask the wife.
Replied by the Senopati that he would ask Tumenggung Bahu Reksa to say that the Senopati cipher Demak who had become a confidant of Kanjeng Gusti Prince Sabrang Lor had been killed along with Kanjeng Gusti Senopati Sarjawala's.
Because actually, Raka Senggani wants to focus more on finding a bright spot for his Uncle's death, he must be able to find who has been the mastermind of Ki Raka Jang's murder.
" If the kakang will come out of Demak, what is the fate of Andara's kakang and Kakang Wangsa,..?" tanya Sari Kemuning sad.
" Let it be for the two of them, they will decide, if they are willing to continue as a warrior cipher, of course they can continue it, and if they really want to get out, they can continue, it's up to them, though,..!" answer Raka Senggani.
Senopati Sandi Yuda Demak is then desirous to Panembahan Lawu, whether he is still in good health or not.
This he expressed to his wife and was welcomed happily by Sari Kemuning.
" Let Kemuning come with the kakang to Mount Lawu to meet Eyang Panembahan Lawu,." said Sari Kemuning.
" What about your health, Kemuning, will it not harm ,..?" ask Raka senggani.
" No Kakang, no,.. Kemuning will give birth to about four more full moons, it will not matter if only going to Mount Lawu,." said Sari Kemuning.
" Okay then, we do not have to use horses, we should just walk,." replied Raka senggani.
" It's up to Senggani's brother,." said Sari Kemuning.
The two married couples then asked permission to Ki Jagabaya and his wife, they were both going to Mount Lawu to meet with the ruler of Mount Lawu.
Despite the heavy heart of the couple, Ki Jagabaya and his wife also allowed both to leave.
Before leaving Raka Senggani also said goodbye to Ki Lamiran, by the Kenanga Village iron pande then said,
" Agger Senggani, are you going to Mount Lawu to find out about your Uncle's problem,.or is there another problem,..?" ask Ki Lamiran.
Somewhat speechless this Milky Way senopathy heard the question from Ki Lamiran.
he then answered the question,.
" Ki. actually Senggani wants to just go there and see if it's in good shape,..!" answer Raka Senggani.
He feels that at this time the mind is still often disturbed by the death of Raka Jang his uncle was added some time ago has met with Raka Yantra who is his cousin who wants to retaliate the death of his parents.
" Hehh..Where did Angger Yantra know that his parents had died,..?" ask Ki Lamiran.
" I don't know, Ki, I don't,..Senggani did not know, but it seems that he was also a disciple of the ruler of Mount Merapi,..!" raka Senggani again.
" Is that so Ngger, or is there indeed a connection to Ki Raka's death with the ruler of Mount Merapi,..?" ask Ki Lamiran.
" It looks like it is so, Ki, why Raka Yantra's brother can find out, and why he also has the knowledge of the Merapi padepokan, ." explained Raka Senggani.
Senopati Sandi Yuda Demak also added, at this time the most concerned with his is the ruler of Mount Merapi, his revenge on himself may not be extinguished as long as he has not been killed, raka Senggani.
From the observation of Ki Lamiran, Ki Raka Jang's killer is a very powerful person.
He also advised Raka Senggani to be more careful especially when walking alone with his pregnant wife.
" Aki's advice, will remain Senggani remember, we both will not be long at Mount Lawu, soon we will return,..!" raka Senggani.
Then he left his house with a look of eyes by Ki Lamiran.
Both of them soon disappeared in a corner.
Ki Lamiran then continued the work in the pategalan after the departure of Raka Senggani.
***************
Meanwhile on a hill, on a very bright morning it was seen a young man who had a thin mustache under his nose. In front of him stood an old man upright without touching the ground, very high in the knowledge of the body of the old man.
" Teacher,..I hope to Master to be able to bring down the ultimate knowledge that Master has, said the young man.
He is none other than Raka Yantra, cousin of Raka Senggani.
" Hehh, what caused you to ask me to bring down this ultimate Science that I have,..?" ask the old man.
The other is Mpu Loh Brangsang and is better known by Raka Yantra as Ki Branang.
Ki Branang deliberately provoked his student to come clean.
And indeed Raka Yantra then explained to his teacher why he wanted to forge himself again.
Raka Jang's son immediately explained that he has now been vengeful on someone who has a very high knowledge.
" Who's the one who's your enemy,..Ngger,..?" ask Ki Branang.
" He was named Raka Senggani and was one of the Senopati Pajang who was very reluctant also still my own cousin, Guru,." replied Raka Yantra.
" Hahh, Senopati Brastha Abipraya you mean Ngger,..?" ask Mpu Loh Brosang.
He seemed to pretend to be surprised to hear the words of his student.
" Right teacher, he holds the title Senopati Brastha Abipraya,..!" sahut Raka Yantra's.
" Have you met her, indeed,..Ngger,..?" ask Mpu Loh Brosang full of investigation.
" Sever Master, and his knowledge is very high, he is easily able to defeat me, which is why I ask Master to lower the ultimate knowledge that Master has,..!" said Raka Yantra.
Later by Ki Branang answered by saying that indeed the knowledge of Senopati Brastha Abipraya was very high.
" Two of your Master's uncles have been killed at his hands, Ngger, which is why you must be careful if you have to deal with him, " explained Ki Branang.
" So Raka Senggani has succeeded in killing two younger brothers of Guru , how high his knowledge is , Guru,..!" sahut Raka Yantra's.
After hearing the words of the Master, Ki Raka Jang's son learned the level of knowledge from his cousin's sister.
" But Angger Yantra need not worry, no matter how high one's knowledge is certainly still able to be defeated, with a record of yourself indeed having to practice,..!" ki Branang.
" And also by relying on the ultimate science that will be revealed by Master, if only aji Melbur saketi depend on, I will not be able to defeat him." explained Raka Yantra.
" Right, Ngger, but with Lebur Waja as the ultimate study that Master has will be very difficult to beat him if you rely on that alone,." explained Ki Branang.
" So Teacher means, I won't be able to defeat him, even though I have been studying the ultimate study,..?" asked Raka Yantra astonished.
But then Ki Branang explained to defeat Senopati Brastha Abipraya that he had to rely on his mind not only his knowledge, he had, because in addition to the ability of Senopati Brastha Abipraya was very high he was also very intelligent so that he was able to defeat his two younger brothers.
Therefore he advised that this student is able to rely on his thinking ability to defeat him.
It can even be said that Senopati Brastha Abipraya can be defeated in a clever way tend to be cunning.
Raka Yantra who heard the words from the Master immediately asked,..
" Is it not the action of a knight, who defeats an opponent in a cunning way." said Raka Yantra.
" Anything can be done to be able to defeat the enemy, Senopati Brastha Abipraya also did that to defeat the enemy of his enemy, if only relying on his knowledge of course he was long dead,.." terang Ki Branang's.
Raka Yantra was silent, it seemed like this young man still disagreed with his teacher, but the embers of revenge in his heart to be able to kill this Senopati Brastha Abipraya were getting stronger, stronger, and stronger, because he thinks that the death of his parents was caused by the actions of his cousin's sister.
And from that moment he also forged himself to receive the ultimate decline of knowledge from his teacher, Ki Branang.
And Mpu Loh Brangsang also happily passed down the knowledge of Aji Lebur Waja to Raka Yantra.
The young man was very diligent in accepting the decline of this Waja Melbur science.
He was indeed eager with this ultimate goal to beat his cousin's sister.
So starting that day with his spirit Raka Yantra trained with accompanied by his teacher.
In the heart of Mpu Loh Brangsang looks very happy, he really desires to be able to defeat his arch-enemy by pitting the two brothers.
He, he, would certainly be very happy to see the fight between these two cousins when they have to fight each other with the revenge of this Angger Raka Yantra , said in Mpu Loh Brosangsang's heart.
While he saw the disciple practicing Ajian Melting Waja.
