The Ancestral Country
Wrathful
Hearing Suryanata's reply, Prince Banjarsari was surprised instead of playing.
"Are you crazy Kangmas?
Have you never heard of the greatness of the Watugunung Panji on the battlefield?
He never lost the battle of Kangmas Suryanata, therefore he was given the title Jayengrana", refuted Prince Banjarsari who was not inexhaustible with the thoughts of Prince Suryanata.
"But if we don't finish off the Watugunung Panji, then forever he will be a thorn in the flesh in the government of Panjalu if he doesn't become king.
We will not be good to eat and sleep if the son of the Regent Bracelets does not die Dhimas Prince Banjarsari.
I do not want to be forever depressed by the existence of the Watugunung Panji in the Daha palace. He must be removed" said Suryanata, clenching his hand. It seems that he intends to kill Panji Watugunung as soon as possible.
Prince Banjarsari stroked his chin slowly. What Suryanata said was true, too, but it was all too dangerous. He did not want to bear such a burden, because if it failed not only Suryanata received the punishment but he would also be dragged into this problem. The entire family and the retainer of Daha Palace already knew that he was siding with Suryanata.
A sneaky thought suddenly appeared in the mind of Prince Banjarsari. A moment later a faint smile fell on his lips.
"It's up to you Kangmas Suryanata. I will continue to support you no matter what decision you make.
We share our duties then", said Prince Banjarsari with a tone of voice full of confidence.
"For duty?
Explain to me what you mean Dhimas Banjarsari", asked Suryanata with a face full of questions.
"Look at Kangmas, please,
The Watugunung Panji I leave it to Kangmas Suryanata. As for Mapatih Jayakerti let me take care of the old man.
Before the 40-day ceremony of the passing of Kanjeng Romo Prabu Samarawijaya, we must act. So that after the memorial ceremony of Kanjeng Romo's death, there is no longer a barrier for you to sit on the Panjalu throne.
How is Kangmas Suryanata?", Prince Banjarsari looked towards Suryanata who immediately nodded in agreement.
"I agree Dhimas,
It should be like that. Tonight my idling will move to Daha's son. You also have to move people to finish off Mapatih Jayakerti.
Tomorrow morning two thorns in the flesh in the Daha palace must be destroyed Dhimas Prince Banjarsari" said Prince Suryanata with clenched hands and a fiery tone.
Prince Banjarsari immediately nodded. So did Tumenggung Gilingwesi who sat beside him. That night there will be a major event that will shake Panjalu.
The afternoon soon changed. Slowly the sun began to set in the western horizon. The twilight red hue was so lit up like a sign that something was about to happen. The bats started flying in the dark sky for food, the night birds started coming out of their nests. The cheerful sound of crickets and grasshoppers increasingly make the night atmosphere even colder let alone drizzle began to descend in the Kotaraja Daha region.
In the direction of Daha, Panji Watugunung who just changed clothes after cleaning himself looks dashing with clothes prepared by Sekar Mayang and Dewi Srimpi.
Goddess Anggarawati who prepares food for them to gather, seems to wipe the sweat that soaks her forehead. Aided by Dewi Naganingrum and Cempluk Rara Sunti, Dewi Anggarawati prepared Panji Watugunung's favorite food with love.
Panji Tejo Laksono was sitting quietly on the floor with Wandansari. Care of Panji Tejo Laksono is mostly done by Wandansari, his loyal servant. The eldest son of Panji Watugunung already looks handsome like the father.
Various dishes such as roasted chicken and grilled fish began to be arranged neatly on the tray. Cempluk Rara Sunti raised a clay pot that is used to cook lodeh vegetables. While Dewi Naganingrum began to arrange rice on a new basket lifted from the boiler.
The smell was smelling from that place.
"Aggarawati,
Sangu ieu atos efficient atawa tacan?", asked Dewi Naganingrum while showing rice in her basket.
"What is Kangmbok Anggarawati?
Cempluk did not understand the same words of the Third Empress", Cempluk who did not understand Galuh language looked at Dewi Anggarawati questioningly.
Hearing the question, Dewi Anggarawati smiled knot.
"That's Dinda Naganingrum asking, Pluk..
This rice is enough or not. That's meaning.
Dinda Naganingrum,
Add a little more rice. I am worried that if we all need to eat a lot especially Kangmas Watugunung has not eaten my cooking for a long time" said Dewi Anggarawati who made the two people nod in understanding.
After cleaning everything up, the three wives of Panji Watugunung rushed to bring the food that had been prepared to go to the Keputran Daha boga gym.
Aided by the servants of the sons, they prepared dinner for the Watugunung Panji family. When everything was ready, Cempluk Rara Sunti immediately rushed to the bedroom Panji Watugunung just finished dressing up.
"The Back of Watugunung, the,
Dinner is ready. Kakang is waiting for Kangmbok Anggarawati and the Third Empress in the boga gym.
Mari Kakang", said Cempluk Rara Sunti with a sweet smile.
"Let's go Dinda, guys,
We go to the sasana boga", invite Panji Watugunung who immediately stood from his seat and walked to the sasana boga Keputran Daha followed by Cempluk Rara Sunti, Dewi Srimpi and Sekar Mayang. Ayu Galuh and the new Ratna Pitaloka from the King's private palace immediately joined them.
**
In one corner of Kotaraja Daha, four people dressed in all black appeared to be preparing. The four of them had swords on their backs.
"Listen to all of you, all of you,
This task is very dangerous. If our lives fail, we will be lost. If it works, then the glory of a lifetime will be ours. I'm tired of living as a lowly servant. And so, we cannot fail.
If caught, it is better to die. Do you understand?", asked the thick-bodied man with a sharp eye toward his three friends. The black cloth that covered half of his face was unable to cover the cruelty that emanated from Randupati's eyes.
"We understand Kakang Randupati" the three men replied simultaneously. After looking at each other for a moment, the four of them immediately shot towards the roof of the building in front of them. Then agilely jump from one roof of the building to the roof of the other building with a light movement.
Yes, they are a herd of assassins sent by Prince Suryanata to finish off the life of Panji Watugunung. Led by Randupati, a former famous swordsman from Kembang Kuning who later served the Duke of Kembang Kuning. He was assigned to escort wherever Prince Suryanata was. Their goal is now only one, the life of Patugunung Panji.
On the other hand, in the west of the Daha Patihan, 3 people dressed in black with giant wooden masks were running fast between the shadows of the buildings of the Daha city. The drizzle that was hitting Kotaraja Daha did not dampen their footsteps.
Right near the walls of the Daha Palace, they stopped to look at the situation. The atmosphere around the place was so quiet because the drizzle that came down made the residents of Kotaraja Daha lazy to leave the house. Only 4 gatekeepers were seen talking at the guard post.
The wooden masked man in red signaled to his two friends to follow him. They immediately flashed quickly towards the palace walls that escaped the attention of the guard soldiers of the gate of the Kepatihan Daha palace.
With a shoulder to shoulder, the three of them managed to jump over the walls of the Daha Turning Palace easily without being heard by the ears of the gatekeepers.
Mapatih Jayakerti had just laid her body on the bed when her ears heard the sound of her feet tracing the ground west of her bedroom.
'There is a mean person entering this place', Inner Mapatih Jayakerti while getting up from her bed.
The burly man slowly grabbed his new heirloom keris he had placed next to the bed. After the heirloom keris grasped, Mapatih Jayakerti immediately woke the wife.
"Your... Nyi..
Wake up Nyi, quickly wake up", said Mapatih Jayakerti slowly while shaking the body of his wife, Nyi Sukesi.
"What's up Kangmas?
Why did you wake me up in this blind night?", asked Sukesi Nyi who slowly woke up from their bed.
"Curlsttttttttttt...
Don't be loud your voice. There are evil-intentioned people who have just entered into the Conformity. Do not panic, quickly you get out of this room and call the soldiers", replied Mapatih Jayakerti who made Nyi Sukesi surprised instead of playing looking at her. The woman immediately nodded in understanding and walked out of the bedroom quietly. He headed towards the gate of the Palace of Patihan Daha.
Outside the room, the three black-clothed men were sneaking towards the direction of Mapatih Jayakerti's room. One by one began to draw their weapons.
Their movements were so smooth, barely audible to the human ear.
As he approached the bedroom door of Mapatih Jayakerti, suddenly...
Bruuuaaaakkkkkh...
Aaauuugggghhhhh!!!
A loud kick from behind the door caused the bedroom door to shatter and hit one of the three of them wearing a blue wooden mask to slam back and hit the guava tree hard. That guy is in pain.
From inside the bedroom, appeared Mapatih Jayakerti with eyes filled with anger.
What do you want at night to settle like a thief in Kepatihan ha?", snapped Mapatih Jayakerti loudly.
Without replying, the two black-clothed men immediately darted towards the Mapatih Jayakerti while swinging their respective swords.
The red wooden mask is targeting the neck of the Warangka government of Panjalu. On the other hand, the green wooden mask thrusts the sword at the foot of Mapatih Jayakerti.
Quickly, Mapatih Jayakerti dodged the attack by twisting his body while slashing the heirloom keris on his right hand, towards the red wooden mask.
The redwood mask blurted out the attack while twisting his sword to fend off the sabetage of Mapatih Jayakerti.
Thrrriiinngg!!
The clash of two of their weapons that were fired in a high level created a small spark but was enough to make the three men retreat a few steps back.
Mapatih Jayakerti was quite surprised to see his opponent powered in high, as well as the red wood mask who was shocked by the old patih martial ability.
'This old train of bangka apparently cannot be underestimated. I have to be careful', the inner red wood mask while turning his sword.
Immediately he darted quickly towards Mapatih Jayakerti by smashing his left hand accompanied by energy in a high level of his flagship study.
Whhhuuuutttth..
Mapatih Jayakerti who felt a cold wind of deep power quickly jumped to the side dodging the attack.
Blllllaaaarrrrrrhhhh!
A huge explosion was heard as the red-masked man slammed into the wall of the Repatriation Hall. The wooden wall was shattered.
While the green wood mask immediately flashed quickly to meet Mapatih Jayakerti who had just managed to set foot after avoiding the attack of the red mask.
The sabetan sword leads to the waist of the courtier.
Whuussshhhh!!
Mapatih Jayakerti who did not have enough room to avoid the sabetage chose to fend off with his heirloom keris while his left hand smashed into his opponent's chest.
Thrraannnggg...
Dhiesshhhhh...
Aarrrggghhhhhhhh!!
The green wooden mask immediately slammed backwards as far as several spears. He tried to get up but the deep wounds he suffered forced him to sit down. He's vomiting fresh blood.
Seeing that, the red mask immediately darted towards Mapatih Jayakerti. A fierce fight between them soon ensued.
The sound of the commotion immediately provoked the attention of the soldiers of the Guard of the Sap. They began to arrive and besiege the place along with Nyi Sukesi.
The man in a blue wooden mask who had just risen from the fall, immediately shot towards Nyi Sukesi as soon as he saw the arrival of the Panjalu soldiers. To him, Nyi Sukesi was only the only way for them to escape.
The conscious Nyi Sukesi was in danger of trying to get away but it was too late. The blue wooden mask quickly smothered his mouth with his left hand after he had managed to avoid the sabetage of the guards' weapons.
"Jayakerti!
Surrender or your wife I kill!", threatened the blue wooden mask that made the fight between Mapatih Jayakerti and the red mask stopped. They each took a step back.
"Fuck!
Let go of my fucking wife! Face me when you are a man", cried Mapatih Jayakerti furiously.
"Don't give up Kangmas, please,
You're the warangka paja Panjalu. You must not give up on these thieves", said Nyi Sukesi who infuriated the blue mask.
"Shut your mouth, you fucking bitch!
Shut up or I'll kill you!", threatened the blue wooden mask loudly. Nyi Sukesi who was caught immediately biting the left hand of the blue wooden mask that smothered him.
Aaaarrrgggghhhhh!
The blue wooden mask screamed loudly. Furious he drew his sword that was stuck to Nyi Sukesi's neck.
Shhrreeettthhh..
Ougghh!!
Nyi Sukesi was immediately dumbfounded with a neck drenched in blood. The woman twitched for a moment before finally drooping. He died before the eyes of Mapatih Jayakerti.
"WICKHEAD!
I kill you motherfucker!!", cried Mapatih Jayakerti who quickly jumped towards the blue wooden mask. Kyai Tonggeng's keris puncture directly pierced the heart of the blue wooden mask. His rapid movements made the red wooden mask too late to block him.
Jleejewppph!
Oouuuggghhhhh!!!!
The blue wooden mask immediately collapsed after Mapatih Jayakerti pulled Kyai Tonggeng keris from his heart. Soon he died with a hollow heart and fresh blood gushing from his wounds.
Seeing the death of the man who killed his wife, apparently did not relieve the wrath of Mapatih Jayakerti.
With cruelty, the former Prabu Airlangga soldier pointed the heirloom keris Kyai Tonggeng on the red wooden mask.
"You're gonna have to pay this all"
