Ratna Pitaloka smiled sweetly staring at the face of Panji Watugunung who looked still tired.
"Other times Dinda,
We must restore the strength of the soldiers and reorganize life in Muria" replied Watugunung with a faint smile.
"It is not our victory party Kakang, but the party of the four of us" replied Ratna Pitaloka with a red blush of her face.
"Ceu Pitaloka, please,
Akang Kasep must still be tired huh. We postpone the party later if we have returned to Katang-katang alone oruh", said Dewi Naganingrum who participated in welcoming the arrival of Patugunung Panji.
Ratna Pitaloka immediately turned to Dewi Srimpi, but seeing Dewi Srimpi shake her head, the first concubine of the Watugunung Panji immediately said.
"All right, you,
I'm following your advice. But there is a condition Kakang. Later I want to go to Tapan to visit the tomb of my mother and father", Ratna Pitaloka looked at the face of Panji Watugunung as if asking for answers.
Smiling wryly, Panji Watugunung nodded his head.
The beautiful face of Ratna Pitaloka instantly sumringah for a moment. He had long wanted to make a pilgrimage to the tomb of his mother in Tapan, but there was hardly any time because of the busyness of helping Panji Watugunung complete his duties as a yuwaraja of Panjalu.
The atmosphere in the palace of the Duchy of Muria began to gradually improve.
Almost a week, Panji Watugunung assisted by Senopati Narapraja and Maitreya to make a large improvement in the palace of the Duchy of Muria.
The soldiers of the surrendered Duchy of Muria were transferred to the Duchy of Lasem to provide a sense of security for all parties.
As for filling the gap of the army, in addition to receiving new soldiers, Patugunung Panji placed 500 soldiers of the Duchy of Lasem as temporary guards.
Several Duchy court dignitaries were appointed to run the cogs of government. They are the Akuwu of several regions of Muria who have sworn allegiance to Panjalu.
As Yuwaraja, Patugunung Panji is indeed entitled to appoint palace officials representing Gusti Prabu Samarawijaya.
Just a week after the bloody incident Balapati came to Muria. Accompanied by the deputy leader of the Garuda Panjalu Utara troops, they faced the Watugunung Panji at the paseban hall of the Duchy of Muria.
"What are you doing here, brother Balapati?
Do you want to avenge the death of your father and Uncle?", asked Panji Watugunung who immediately looked at Balapati's face.
"Although Gusti Prince,
The arrival of the servant here just want to see the condition of the servant's mother Gusti Prince.
There is no desire or desire for revenge. From the beginning Ratnapangkaja's father had been warned not to follow the advice of Ranggawangsa uncle. But the father did not speak the word of the servant at all. Even the servant was driven out of Muria by him", Balapati said in his honor.
Hmmmm
"Your mother is fine, brother Balapati. He remained within the Duchy's palace.
Although you are not involved in this matter, but you as his son must take responsibility.
Are you able to Balapati's brother?", Panji Watugunung stared intently at Balapati.
"Hamba is ready at Gusti Pangeran's law if it is considered guilty because of the actions of his servant's father", Balapati immediately lowered his head.
Hearing Balapati's reply, Panji Watugunung smiled faintly.
"All right, you,
As a member of Garuda Panjalu's army, you must behave like a knight, Brother Balapati.
I impose punishment for you to keep this Duchy of Muria until the end of your life", hearing the words of Panji Watugunung, Balapati who had resignedly received punishment, immediately flabbergasted.
"What does Gusti Prince mean?", asked Balapati in confusion.
"You will be the Duke of Muria, but on condition", replied Watugunung with a faint smile.
"What are the terms Gusti Prince?", Balapati was very curious.
"During one war, you must obey my orders. Once every 3 full moons you have to come to Katang-katang Palace as a sign of your obedience to me.
Tributes and taxes on the earth you pay to Daha. Murian soldiers should not be more than 2 thousand soldiers. And I will put a Demung who will watch over you during these 1 wars.
If you can do this, I will make you Duke of Muria.
One more thing, you must swear allegiance to Panjalu", Panji Watugunung stared at Balapati's face.
"Whatever the terms of Gusti Prince I accept. Thank you for forgiving my life", Balapati immediately prostrated to the Watugunung Panji.
And thus, Balapati was eventually inducted into the Duchy of Muria in place of his father's role.3 After the rapture, the Daha Army began to leave the court of the Duchy of Muria.
Panji Watugunung asked Warigalit to lead the Garuda Panjalu Force to return to Sanggur while he and his three wives will go to Tapan to visit the graves of Ratna Pitaloka's parents.
After the large ship they were on docked in the port of Yuwana, dressed in disguise, the four of them drove their horses towards the Duchy of Bojonegoro which is Jenggala territory.
After driving the horse for half a day, they reached Pakuwon Bulu which is the border of Jenggala and Panjalu.
At the edge of the small forest with a small river that became his boundary they paused for a moment.
"Rear, man,
We'll spend the night here. I'm tired" said Ratna Pitaloka, who looked tired.
Hearing that voice, Panji Watugunung immediately pulled the reins of his horse. They then immediately descended from the horse and tethered it to a shrub tree on the edge of the small forest.
Ratna Pitaloka gathered dry wood to make a campfire, while Naganingrum laid out a bed for them to take shelter tonight. In the tambi of a large tree, it becomes their bed.
All that, Panji Watugunung and Dewi Srimpi moved quickly into the small forest to look for something that could prop up their stomachs.
Two roosters are busy scraping leaves.
Patugunung Panji immediately threw two pebbles covered with deep energy.
Sringgg..
The plot!
The two forest chickens instantly collapsed lifelessly. The Watugunung banner immediately picked up the 2 forest chickens and tied their legs with rope from vines.
'This is enough to prop up the stomach', muttered Panji Watugunung as he stepped towards where they had spent the night. From the back, Dewi Srimpi also brought 3 jungle chickens that had been plucked.
Ratna Pitaloka immediately cleaned the forest chickens in a small river near where they spent the night.
Once clean, he immediately gave Panji Watugunung to roast because Naganingrum had lit a fire to dry wood twigs.
The reddish twilight had just disappeared in the western sky, changing into a dark star-dotted night.
The smell of roasted chicken was smelled by two people who happened to pass by. From a distance they saw a brightly lit bonfire under a large tree on the edge of the forest. Immediately the two men rushed towards the direction of the bonfire.
Patugunung's sharp banner of his listeners, immediately turned towards the sound of the footsteps of the horses approaching them.
Once close, it was only seen that they were a middle-aged woman whose hair was in a loop in blue clothes. Another beautiful young girl in a light blue dress.
Judging from any angle, they were clearly warriors. There were swords hanging on the waists of the two people.
"Excuse me Kisanak,
Can we be here alone? We stayed at this place" said the middle-aged woman politely.
"Please Nyai..
The three wives of Panji Watugunung also made room for the two of them. The Watugunung banner that finished roasting the 2 forest chickens immediately handed over to Ratna Pitaloka and Naganingrum.
Kriiuukkkkk
There was the sound of the belly of the beautiful girl in light blue. The face of the girl in blue clothes immediately flushed red withstanding embarrassment.
Panji Watugunung smiled faintly and handed the girl a ripe forest chicken.
"This is to prop your stomach up. Sorry this is all we can give you", Panji Watugunung said immediately.
"Thank you kisanak. Sorry to trouble you guys" said the middle-aged woman with a faint smile.
"Here Nyai, fellow travelers are obliged to help each other.
Oh yeah, where are you guys going?
Introduce, I'm Watugunung, this is Pitaloka, it's Naganingrum and the one in white clothes is Srimpi", Panji Watugunung introduces himself.
"My name is Nyai Sati, this is my student Rara Wulan. We are from the Bukit Wadang College west of the Lwaram border.
Our goal is to Kambang Putih which becomes the new capital of Bojonegoro", replied the middle-aged woman named Nyai Sati.
"Is the Tapan area in the same direction as Dinda Pitaloka?", asked Watugunung Panji to Ratna Pitaloka who was fond of chewing roasted forest chicken.
"Yes Kakang, it is indeed unidirectional. The White Coat is east of Tapan", replied Ratna Pitaloka as she continued to eat.
"How about we walk with Him? When we get to Tapan, we split up", bargained Patugunung Panji to Nyai Sati. The middle-aged woman seemed to think for a moment, then she nodded her head in agreement.
That night they had a warm conversation. As the night grew late, Panji Watugunung immediately laid his body on the bed that had been arranged in Naganingrum. His three wives immediately scrambled to sleep in the husband's arms.
Nyai Sati and Rara Wulan gawked at the scene.
The night changed in the morning. The atmosphere was so bright with the sound of birds chirping in the small forest trees.
The new Watugunung banner washed the face with the water of the small river. It really feels fresh. His three wives also cleaned themselves up.
After tidying up his clothes and supplies, Panji Watugunung and his three wives along with Nyai Sati and Rara Wulan immediately left the place. They walked along the path on the edge of the small forest to the west Bojonegoro region, Pakuwon Manik.
In the town of Pakuwon they went into a restaurant. They immediately headed for an empty dining table.
A servant approached them immediately.
"What do you want to order?", asked the waiter kindly.
"Give us good food. Anything that matters is delicious" said Panji Watugunung soon. The waiter immediately retreated towards the kitchen.
A young man dressed luxuriously, entered the restaurant accompanied by 2 old men dressed in all black.
Seeing their arrival, the customers of the food stall immediately rushed out of the place.
"Hi, why are you still here?
Quickly come out or you will we throw out", said the white-bearded grandfather as he glanced sharply at Panji Watugunung and his entourage that did not move from his seat.
"We want to eat. We've ordered food. What's wrong if we wait for our order?", replied Nyai Sati indifferently.
"Sinny grandma, maniacal,
How dare you say that to us. Don't you know who we are?", the old man with the thick mustache spoke.
"Who are you, so much so here?", asked Nyai Sati in a loud voice. This time the middle-aged woman stood up from her seat.
"We are a Pair of White Demons. Are you afraid to hear our names?", cried the white-bearded grandfather quickly.
Phuihh
"Just two claws from Padepokan Bukit Gandarwa. What should I be afraid of?", sneered Nyai Sati with a contemptuous smile.
"Brotten granny,
Your mouth needs to be ripped apparently", cried the White Moustache Demon who immediately darted quickly towards Nyai Sati. Panji Watugunung's traveling companions immediately prepared for a fight.
Nyai Sati quickly kicked the chair that was near her. The chair immediately floated quickly towards the White Mustache Demon who was darting towards Nyai Sati. Seeing that, the right hand of the White Moustache Demon directly struck the wooden chair.
Bruakkk
The wooden chair instantly shattered into pieces when it hit the White Moustache Demon's punch. Nyai Sati quickly sent a punch towards the head of the White Mustache Demon.
Whussss
The White Mustache Demon immediately dodged quickly. The sell and buy blows soon occurred between the two of them. Several tables and chairs of the restaurant had already been shattered by their fight.
The White Mustache Demon immediately sent a hard punch aiming at Nyai Sati's chest, but the middle-aged woman twitched to the side and then released a hard kick towards the stomach of the White Mustache Demon.
Bukkkkkk
Oughh
The White Moustache Demon instantly bounced back and crashed into the dining table violently.
Brakkkk
The White Beard Demon immediately approached his sister who was vomiting fresh blood. Seeing that, the White Beard Demon was wrathful.
"Mrsky granny, rancid,
Killed you!"
