The Ancestral Country
Death Angel
That morning after dressing up neatly, Panji Watugunung and his four wives met Dewi Orchid Bulan at the main hall Padepokan Orchid Bulan.
"Daughter, Princess,
I hope we have enough trouble with our presence here. Thank you for the welcome that the princess gave to us" said Panji Watugunung who sat cross-legged in front of the Moon Orchid Goddess. His four wives sat in a row on his left and right.
"Hmmmmmmm..
So you mean to say goodbye, Watugunung?
Though I have not been satisfied to see you who are now Yuwaraja Panjalu", replied the Moon Orchid Goddess with a heavy sigh. A beautiful woman like a teenage girl aged 2 windu but actually aged over 8 warsa looks moody.
"Other time, I will visit the Princess Eyang again. We have just returned from the war against Jenggala, have not had time to inform Gusti Prabu Samarawijaya about our victory. I also miss my two sons in Kadiri's palace, Eyang.
I promise I will definitely return to this place again", said Panji Watugunung trying to convince the Moon Orchid Goddess.
"Alright then desire, I will not force you to stay longer here" said Dewi Orchid Bulan while looking at the Golden Orchid sitting not far from her.
"Golden Figures, "Golden Figures,
Bring me the blue cloth parcel stored in my bed closet", the orders of the Moon Orchid Goddess who made the Golden Orchid immediately salute the Moon Orchid Goddess and passed towards the master's bedroom. Not long after, the first disciple of the Moon Orchid Padepokan returned with a blue cloth package.
After receiving the blue cloth package, Dewi Orchid Bulan immediately opened her and took a pair of necklaces of black thread that was pendant silver with a carving of Garuda bird in the middle of her.
"This is the relic necklace of your Eyang Buyut which is the legacy of Eyang Lokapala.
Give your two sons so that they may remember themselves as descendants of the Ishana dynasty.
Later, if there is a dispute then this necklace will be a peacemaker for them", added Dewi Orchid Bulan while handing the necklace to Panji Watugunung. Yuwaraja Panjalu was immediately accepted the gift of the Moon Orchid Goddess and kept the thing behind her clothes.
After bidding farewell to Dewi Orchid Bulan, Panji Watugunung and his four wives and all Panjalu soldiers left Bukit Lanjar. Dewi Orchid Bulan led their departure to the gate Padepokan Orchid Bulan. The girl's eyes glazed over the departure of the granddaughter.
Panji Watugunung's troops moved quickly towards the southwest. Passing through several areas of the Duchy of Matahun, they finally reached the western end of the Duchy of Matahun namely Pakuwon Tamwelang.
Tamwelang is a Pakuwon who was once hostile to Pakuwon Watugaluh which is one of the Kayuwarajan Kadiri region, the princely area of Watugunung Panji. Wanting to remove the hostile feelings between Pakuwon Tamwelang and Pakuwon Watugaluh, Panji Watugunung plans to include Pakuwon Tamwelang into the Kayuwarajan Kadiri region.
The last Akuwu Tamwelang, Tunggul Seta was killed in the battle between Panjalu and Jenggala, while the family and his descendants choose to get away from the palace Pakuwon Tamwelang then need to be appointed a new aquwu as well as a marker that the region entered into Kayuwarajan Kadiri. The new Duke of Matahun, Maitreya had agreed to give the territory to Kayuwarajan Kadiri when the Watugunung Panji conquered Matahun with Maitreya.
Panjalu's army, which numbered about 5 thousand soldiers, caused a stir among the people of Pakuwon Tamwelang. Along the way they pulled over and bowed as a sign they had bowed to the Watugunung Panji.
At that time their journey stopped because of the commotion that occurred on the road to the palace Pakuwon Tamwelang.
A thin mustachioed young man was separating a fight between two men.
"Hi, uh,
What's the matter? Why are you making a noise like that?", cried Tumenggung Ludaka who immediately made the three men turn towards the source of the voice.
Seeing the high officer of the Daha warrior with thousands of soldiers behind him, the three men immediately saluted Tumenggung Ludaka who was the spearhead of the movement of the Panjalu warrior movement.
"Please forgive Gusti Officer,
I was separating their fights. They are brothers, fighting over the inheritance of both parents who have died.
Each one feels he has more rights and no one wants to budge" said the thin-moustached young man respectfully.
"So that's the problem, then,
Hey you guys, why not divide the two equally? Isn't that easier", Tumenggung Ludaka stared at two thick-bodied men whose faces were battered by fighting.
"Please forgive Gusti,
That I can't do. The firstborn servant, has greater rights than he who is only the youngest child" said the stocky man with a bushy mustache and a large mole on the left cheek.
"You're too greedy, Brother Wondo,
Hasn't some moorland in the North of Wanua already been sold? Why do you still want to split the grounds of our parents' home? While the rice field 4 shoulders you control, while I only get the land of the yard", sergegah the man with a younger stock.
"That's because the price of the land you occupy is much more expensive than the price of rice fields and moorings that I have.
Anyway I asked for a part of the land", shouted the thick-bodied man called Wondo loudly.
"Basar brother doesn't know himself, but,
You deserve me to beat up Karto", after saying so, Wondo jumped at his sister intending to beat up the sister but had not had time for the hand of the Wondo to arrive, the thin mustachioed young man deftly caught Wondo's waist.
"Bad!
You dare to act as you please in front of me, wong Tamwelang. Tired of your life apparently", cried Tumenggung Ludaka who felt unappreciated. When Tumenggung Ludaka was about to get off his horse, a voice sounded that made everyone turn their heads.
"What are you guys making a storm?".
Seeing the arrival of the Watugunung Panji, the three people immediately crouched down and worshiped at the Watugunung Panji.
"Worship our devotion to Gusti Prince" said the three men at the same time.
"They're making a storm Gusti Prince,
The blue-clothed man separated the fight between the two brothers who were fighting over the inheritance. They both want to master the legacy of their parents" reported Tumenggung Ludaka while respecting the Watugunung Panji. Clearly, Tumenggung Ludaka explained the problem.
"Hmmmmm....
Hi kisanak in blue. What do you think should be done for the justice of the two of them?", asked Panji Watugunung to the thin mustachioed young man a meaningful look.
"If according to the servant, the whole treasure should be calculated what the value of Gusti..
After that in for two, so that a sense of justice is felt by both of them. So we do not calculate the area of land controlled by each person, but we divide based on the value.
According to the servant, it was the fairest decision for the two of them, Gusti Prince", said the young man with a thin mustache while respecting the Watugunung Panji.
Yuwaraja Panjalu was smiling hearing the answer of the thin mustachioed youth.
"Who is your name, kisanak?", asked Panji Watugunung attentively.
"Hamba Wikana, Gusti Prince.
From Wanua Kitri in the southern region of the Duchy of Matahun. I come here at the invitation of my brother who wants to travel", replied the thin-moustached young man respectfully.
"Good, you have a broad mind. Now you all come with me to the palace of Pakuwon Tamwelang", said Panji Watugunung which immediately made the three men salute the crown prince of the kingdom of Panjalu.
Panjalu's army immediately moved towards Pakuwon Tamwelang's palace.
At Tamwelang palace, a massive revamp was immediately carried out, ranging from the guard soldiers to the servants and maids of Pakuwon palace. Most of Pakuwon Tamwelang's pangreh in the contents of the new person chosen by the Watugunung Panji and the high officers of the Daha soldiers included resolving the problems between Wondo and Karto.
Marakeh was made the new Akuwu Tamwelang. Accompanied by Wikana as Dharmadyaksa.
After restoring Pakuwon Tamwelang's chaotic government, Panjalu's forces planned to spend the night in the city and the palace of Pakuwon Tamwelang and rest their bodies after a long journey from Kahuripan.
**
A beautiful young woman with a palace lady dress up walked gracefully towards the gate of the Daha palace.
4 soldiers guarding the palace gate by waving spears intercepted the woman.
"Where are you going this afternoon, Surti?", asked a gatekeeper soldier with a thick side. The man's eyes were fixed on the large chest of the beautiful woman standing before him.
"Surti was sent by Ndoro Ayu Retnosari to buy food in the corner of the market that Kang Marto.
This is ordered quickly until the same Ndoro Ayu. Give Surti the way of Kang", replied the young woman called Surti flirtatiously.
"Harjo, Chubby, Kampu..
You guard the gates of this palace with your lives. I for the sake of Ndoro Ayu Retnosari, will deliver Surti to the food stall Nyi Kumbi", the command of the thick-set man with the big sideburns on his three friends.
Harjo flicked his lips, while Sompal and Kampu nodded in understanding. The two people immediately passed towards the North, towards the Kotaraja Daha afternoon market.
"Basar bajul buggung,
Already married two still itchy see young leaves. Kena apes new tau rasa", grumbled Harjo with grunt after Marto and Surti not seen in the crowd of the road that afternoon.
"What do you mean Kang Harjo?
Kang Marto has the science of crocodile stump?", asked Sompal who is the most innocent among them.
"You're either a moron or you really don't know ha?
"Oh so, Kang,
Let her like to play girls. When it's time to stop it will stop him" replied Sompal as he scratched his head that does not itch.
"But you don't know, that Surti was targeted by Kang Harjo a long time ago. But Kang Marto seemed to not care about Kang Harjo's feelings.
Love playing sebot land people at will", timpal Kampu who glanced towards Harjo. The thin-moustached man bent his face.
"Well, kog apes is right Kang Harjo..
The girl he likes on his own brush. The patient yes kang", said Sompal who made Harjo swerve sharply towards him.
"You can be quiet, can't you?
If you still sing, I'll beat you up", threatened Harjo who made Sompal instantly shrivel his guts. Kampu tried hard to hold back his laughter so as not to be heard by the two friends.
Surti walked gracefully followed Marto who walked beside him while continuing to look at the large chest of the beautiful woman as if to swallow Surti roundly.
"Surti...
There was something Kang Marto wanted to ask", Marto stepped into Surti's footsteps.
"Ask what Kang? Just talk to Surti" replied the beautiful woman in her centile style.
"Do you have a husband yet?", asked Marto again quickly.
"Not Kang, why?", Surti replied with a sweet smile. Hearing that answer, Marto smiled mischievously. The man in the thick coat circulated his gaze towards the afternoon market which was still quite far away. Suddenly his gaze was fixed on an empty house near the afternoon market. Quickly, the man pulled Surti's hand half dragging him there.
"Eh Kang Marto wants what?", asked Surti who was helpless against Marto's burly hands. Marto did not reply, continuing to pull Surti's hand violently.
Once he gets where he wants to be, Marto releases Surti's hand.
"I've loved you for a long time, Surti, ever since you worked inside the Daha palace" Marto said with a deep smile.
"Kang Marto already has two wives, is it still lacking?", asked Surti with a flirtatious smile.
"They are nothing compared to you Surti. I want you" Marto said, smiling meaningfully. The burly man walked closer to Surti. With a quick movement, Marto immediately hugged Surti's body violently. Apparently he wanted to rape Surti there.
Roughly, Marto tries to undress Surti. Haven't had time to touch the kemben that covered Surti's huge chest, a hard blow landed on Marto's stomach.
Dhiieeeessshh says..
Ouuuggghhhh!!
"Fuck!
You want to die apparently ha", cried Marto who staggered backward.
Phuihh...
"A bastard like you deserves to die" cried Surti who slowly changed his form into a man dressed all in black.
Marto was surprised not to play to see the change in form.
"Who are you?", Marto accused in fear. Cold sweat drenched his cheeks.
"Haha..
I am your angel of death. You already know my secret. You must die", the cruel grin on the lips of a black figure who was none other than the Thousand-Faced Devil.
"Damn, man,
Dare to threaten Panjalu's soldiers. You have to die" cried Marto as he drew the sword sheathed at his waist.
Marto immediately jumped towards the Thousand-Faced Demon while blasting his sword.
Shreeetttth..
The Thousand-Faced Demon nimbly avoided it. Then quickly kicked Marto's stomach hard.
Bhuukkkh...
Uuuggghhhhhh...!!
Marto roared loudly as the kick struck his stomach. The big man fell backwards. Not yet had his body touched the ground, a pair of hands held Marto's head and twisted him quickly.
Kleeetteeech!
Marto died without even shouting. In just two moves, that Daha palace gate guard warrior died at the hands of the Thousand Face Demon.
After successfully taking Marto's life, the Thousand-Faced Demon immediately flashed rapidly towards the North of the afternoon market, heading to an inn that became the meeting place between him, Wulupaksi and the Black Sword Goddess.
'I will talk about what I have seen inside the Daha palace', the inner Demon of a Thousand Faces while darting swiftly among the dark black shadows of the night that had just descended on Kotaraja Daha.
Shortly after, the man stopped next to a simple inn. Her eyes were moving towards a room where the window was open. In one quick move, Dadung Awangga aka the Thousand Face Demon shot into the room.
Huppphh...
Whhhuuugggh...
Jleegg..
Wulupaksi and the Black Sword Goddess smiled faintly at the arrival of the Thousand-Faced Demon.
"How's Kakang?
You managed to infiltrate Daha's palace?"
