Wisastra who felt tremendous pain on his chest just stared intently at Panji Watugunung. He closed his mouth tightly.
Outraged that there was no answer from Wisastra, the annoyed Cempluk Rara Sunti immediately slapped the cheek of the supreme leader of Mount Agung Padepokan.
Platkkk!!
Auuggghhhhh!!!
Wisastra roared loudly. The hard slap of Cempluk Rara Sunti makes her teeth date 2 seeds. The old man immediately spat out fresh blood along with his 2 dislodged teeth.
Phuihhh..
"Rapid answer or I finish your teeth is old man", threatened Cempluk Rara Sunti while looking sharply at Wisastra. But the old man did not budge in the least.
Cempluk Rara Sunti who growled, raised his right hand high prepared to slap again Wisastra who is still silent. But Panji Watugunung's hand immediately blocked the arm of his youngest concubine.
"Enough Dinda Sunti..
Just stop it. He will not open his mouth. Just leave this business to Tumenggung Ludaka to take care of it" said Watugunung Panji immediately.
"Well Gusti Prabu..
Hi you old man, you're lucky Gusti Prabu Jayengrana stopped me. Otherwise, it has removed all your teeth", hardik Cempluk Rara Sunti while staring intently at Wisastra who is still lying on the ground.
Hearing that Wisastra was surprised. He did not expect that he was dealing with the famous Maharaja of Panjalu as a swordsman to choose a match. Moreover, seeing the bodies of Resi Tunggak and Resi Tunggul who were carried by the soldiers of Pakuwon Gedangan to be burned.
He secretly reached for the knife hidden under his shirt. He wants to avenge Suryanata's death despite having to sacrifice his life. With all the remaining energy Wisastra darted rapidly towards Panji Watugunung who began to walk away from him by pulling the arm of Cempluk Rara Sunti.
At that crucial moment, a shadow darted rapidly cutting through the movements of the Wisastra.
Chrraaassshhh!!
The head of Wisastra immediately rolled onto the ground apart from his body. The black shadow that was none other than Goddess Srimpi instantly sheathed back the Hell's Centipede Sword into its scabbard quickly.
From earlier he continued to be wary of Wisastra which he thought was very suspicious. With his Wind God Ajian Step, he darted fast as the Wisastra moved.
"I already knew that you would do something like this" said Dewi Srimpi as she stared at the head of the Wisastra with her glaring eyes.
Cempluk Rara Sunti who was furious because of the efforts of the support directly kicked Wisastra head towards Kali Agung.
Dhasss..
Wisastra head floated to the middle of Kali Agung and lost in the swallow of the rushing river.
Wisastra's death indirectly closes the clues on the mastermind of the rescue efforts of Prince Suryanata.
The soldiers of Panjalu and the soldiers of Pakuwon Gedangan as well as the soldiers of Pakuwon Sambang cheered excitedly at their success ending the adventures of Prince Suryanata.
Tumenggung Ludaka and Tumenggung Landung immediately approached towards Panji Watugunung. The two high ranking officers of Panjalu soldiers immediately knelt before the Watugunung Panji.
"Worshipping servant Gusti Prabu", said the two mainstay of Panjalu was soon.
"Wake you..
You guys have done a good job. I am proud of your hard work", said Panji Watugunung who made the two high officers smile happily. They immediately stood in front of the Maharaja of Panjalu with great respect.
Lurah Suro who saw it immediately ran to the Watugunung Panji and prostrated to the Watugunung Panji.
"Please forgive Gusti Prabu Jayengrana, Suro does not welcome the arrival of His Majesty Maharaja Panjalu at our place..
Please impose the punishment for the servant", said Lurah Suro while prostrating to Panji Watugunung. He really did not expect that King Panjalu came to Wanua Cenggini on a pursuit mission against the dangerous fugitive.
"It's Ki Lurah, please,
All of this ended well. You do not need to feel guilty about all this", said Panji Watugunung with a smile knot.
"Please Gusti Prabu Jayengrana would like to stop by the slave bar for a moment. It was a great gift to us as citizens of the Kingdom of Panjalu", Lurah Suro still kneeled before the Watugunung Panji. Hearing that, Panji Watugunung immediately turned towards Dewi Srimpi and Cempluk Rara Sunti who walked up to her.
"Dinda Sunti Dinda Srimpi,
Are our goods still in Ki Ranu's house?", asked Panji Watugunung on his two concubines immediately.
"Yes Denmas Prabu,
Our stuff is still at Ki Ranu's house. Me and Sunti will take care of it", replied Dewi Srimpi who was about to turn towards Ki Ranu's house.
"Let me take care of Gusti Concubine. Please just wait here", said Ki Lurah Suro who immediately ran to Ki Ranu's house.
Seeing the arrival of Ki Lurah Suro, Ki Ranu immediately intercepted him. The skinny old man hid in his stables, scared to death.
"What's Ki Lurah doing? Why come here?", ask Ki Ranu questions to Ki Lurah Suro.
"You're really outrageous, Ki Ranu.
You can hide Gusti Prabu Jayengrana in your house without telling me", scolded Ki Lurah Suro while entering Ki Ranu's house.
"What do you mean by your words?
I don't hide anyone in my house. Just an old acquaintance and two beautiful women staying at my house", Ki Ranu was confused by what Ki Lurah Suro said.
"Basic stupid!
They are Gusti Prabu Jayengrana and his two favorite concubines. You really can not see clearly", said Ki Lurah Suro who snatched 3 bundles of black cloth that became the default Watugunung Panji and his two concubines.
Brrukkkkk...
Ki Ranu instantly fainted hearing a statement from Ki Lurah Suro. Lurah Wanua Cenggini just snorted loudly then ran towards Panji Watugunung and his two wives who stood in front.
That night Ki Lurah Suro entertained his grand guests with great respect. He really felt proud to be able to serve the King of Panjalu.
The morning. The atmosphere of Wanua Cenggini which from yesterday was tense gradually improved as usual.
That blind morning, Akuwu Santiko from Pakuwon Gedangan and Akuwu Bratayuda from Sambang were present at Ki Lurah Suro's house to cause unusual fanfare at Ki Lurah Suro's house.
They were eager to meet the new King of Panjalu. Despite having heard his name, but the two of them had never met Panji Watugunung directly. The crowd attracted the attention of the residents of Wanua Cenggini until they chose to temporarily stop their work only to see the arrival of the King of Panjalu in their place. Tumenggung Ludaka and Tumenggung Landung were forced to make security around the place so as not to disturb the comfort of their lord.
The residents of Wanua Cenggini sat cross-legged neatly in the yard of Ki Lurah Suro's house.
As soon as Panji Watugunung and his two wives came out from inside his resting room and walked out towards the front porch of Wanua Cenggini hall, everyone immediately crouched down to worship at Panji Watugunung.
"Our devotion Gusti Prabu Jayengrana" said everyone together.
"Worshipping you I accept. Please sit back", said Patugunung Panji who immediately made everyone in the place sit cross-legged neatly.
"I thank you all for your help, Suryanata could be tried according to his crimes.
Since you have helped me, I will give you a gift.
Akuwu Gedangan's,
I release you from the earth tax for 2 solar scorpions, use it to build this area for the better.
Sambang Akuwu,
You helped me well. I give you the gift of 2 solar scorpions without the burden of earth tax.
Lurah Wanua Cenggini Hotel,
You suffered the most because of this. I release you from the earth tax for one window. Rebuild this area into a prosperous area", said Panji Watugunung soon.
The three leaders of the region immediately worshiped at the Watugunung Panji.
"Thank you for the gift given to us Gusti Prabu" said the three men simultaneously.
"Tumenggung Ludaka and Tumenggung Landung,
I order you to return to Yellow Flower immediately. After this we will go back to Daha", said Patugunung Panji immediately.
Panji Watugunung and Dewi Srimpi and Cempluk Rara Sunti immediately held hands when Panji Watugunung mengapal Ajian Halimun.
The green rays immediately wrapped around the bodies of the three of them and the blink of an eye then Panji Watugunung and his two wives had disappeared from everyone's sight.
ZZZRRRRRRTTTTHHHHH!!
Everyone in Ki Lurah Suro's residence gawked at the sight of it all. They recognized the greatness of the new Canuragan King of Panjalu with admiration for his wisdom.
Inside the palace of Kembang Kuning Duchy, Panji Watugunung and his two wives appeared in the resting hall of the Duchy. Their arrival surprised Senopati Warigalit and Senopati Dewangkara who were sitting there.
The two high-ranking officers of the soldier immediately crouched down and worshipped at the Watugunung Panji.
"Warigalit's back, though,
What about the task I gave you?", asked Panji Watugunung as soon as he sat on his wooden chair.
"Please pardon Dhimas Prabu Jayengrana,
All tasks are almost done. Stay waiting for the palace walls of Kadipaten Kembang Kuning less.
For others have been plenary", reported Warigalit while respecting.
"All right then..
Prepare for the appointment of the new Duke of Yellow Flower. I want to go home to Daha soon", said the Maharaja of Panjalu immediately.
And so, after the revamping of the palace of the Yellow Flower Duchy, the ceremony of the appointment of the new Duke for Yellow Flower was held. Duchy Palace in ornamental with yellow janur in a variety of forms. Light lamps scattered in every corner of the city as a sign to enliven the event.
Dewangkara was appointed as the new Duke of Kembang Kuning. As the new ruler of the territory, he was obliged to build an area to prosper the people in the duchy.
After a full moon, Panji Watugunung and his two wives and the soldiers of Panjalu returned to Daha. Soldiers of Lasem, Warriors Kurawan and Lewa had first returned to their respective regions after the war against Adipati Mpu Pamadi the other day. With the control of 6 thousand soldiers, Patugunung Panji left the city of Yellow Flower heading east. Duke Dewangkara escorted them to the city limits of Kadipaten Kembang Kuning.
Demung Gumbreg smiled broadly. She was so happy to finally be back in Kadiri. The supply officer was confused with Juminten and his two children.
"Ah I finally went back to Kadiri..
Already miss my house", muttered Gumbreg who had heard by Weleng his subordinates.
"Tumben Gusti Demung can miss the same house. Usually feel at home for a long time participating in the war" said Weleng with a smile knot.
"Lah Yo obviously to Leng..
I also need some time off and gather with my wife's children at home. I can sleep well all day without thinking about arranging supplies for the soldiers", said Gumbreg who immediately turned to Weleng.
"So happy to go home it's just an excuse to laze huh Gusti Demung?", Weleng looked at Gumbreg with a faint smile. Gumbreg did not answer yet, a voice surprised them both.
"Basic slacker!"
Hearing that remark, Gumbreg and Weleng immediately turned their heads towards the source of the voice. Senopati Warigalit who went around to the movement of Panjalu soldiers was about to give orders to Gumbreg so that the soldiers move a little faster, undo his intention after hearing Gumbreg's words.
"Eeh there Gusti Senopati Warigalit, the,
There is a duty for Gusti's servant?", said Gumbreg stuttered because he was sure Warigalit heard the chatter between him and Weleng.
"Speed up the movement of your soldiers, Gusti Prabu ordered that before dusk we have passed Pakuwon Semanding.
One more thing tomorrow when we get to Daha, you take care of all the supplies we bring and give the report directly to me. If there's anything you don't report, I'll ask Dhimas Prabu Jayengrana to move you to serve as Akuwu in eastern Seloageng", he said", threatening Senopati Warigalit who immediately rushed to leave Gumbreg who immediately limp to hear the remarks of the officer. This meant that he could not rest casually in Kadiri.
Immediately Gumbreg snorted loudly and then glanced sharply at Weleng.
"It's all because of your poisonous mouth Leng..
If I move to Akuwu then I'll make sure you come with me. When you get to Daha, quickly count how much supplies are left", growled Gumbreg while staring fiercely at Weleng.
"Lha kog so I did Gusti Demung? Kan who was told Gusti Demung", said Weleng while parsing. Gumbreg indifferently said,
"Because I'm your superior"

"We have to intercept them before we get to Daha's palace, Uncle Mahamantri..
After all, they are only in the guard of a few soldiers" said a thick mustachioed, thick-moustached man with shaggy hair. The man's eyes looked calm even though he was actually very cruel.
"Jayengrana is not a random person, Martayuda..
He is the incarnation of Lord Vishnu because he is able to master the change of the giant form. It won't be easy" said one elderly man whose teeth have become toothless.
"Uncle Mahamantri need not worry, I have prepared dozens of high-scientific swordsmen from all over Java.
They are ready to help us at all times in need" said the thick-bodied man called Martayuda.
"Where are they now?
I want to see the whereabouts of the heroes you said that were. Because I don't want to fail. If it fails there is no place for us in this country" said the old man who is none other than Mpu Rikmajenar, the Mahamantri Panjalu.
"They're in a place that Uncle has prepared.
Let's go there" said Akuwu Cempaka, Martayuda who immediately stood up and walked out of the palace of Pakuwon Cempaka. Mpu Rikmajenar followed his nephew's steps. The two of them immediately jumped on their horses towards the eastern region of Pakuwon Cempaka precisely in the region of Soka forest which is famous for being haunted.
Yes, on the grounds of wanting to visit his nephew Mpu Rikmajenar left for Pakuwon Cempaka. But apparently he wanted to see the fortress of Pakuwon Cempaka soldiers prepared by Martayuda to face the Panjalu troops as he wished. He really did not like Panji Watugunung to be the King of Panjalu. All his support he gave to Suryanata and Banjarsari, but it all ended in failure. Even his efforts to support the rebellion of Duke Mpu Pamadi became a bitter pill that was felt by him, because the Watugunung Panji crushed them completely.
The basis of hatred against the Watugunung Panji is that he does not want the descendants of the Isyana dynasty to rule again. Rikmajenar is a descendant of King Wurawari who was defeated by Prabu Airlangga. His parents managed to escape because it was in the Lasem region when Lwaram was destroyed by the invasion of Medang soldiers. His father managed to disguise himself as a Kahuripan soldier to eliminate the trail.
After the separation of the Kingdom of Jenggala and Panjalu, Rikmajenar whose intelligence is above average choose to participate to Daha in order to avenge the old Lwaram descendants. He was truly an enemy in a blanket, a thorn in the flesh in the Daha palace.
Upon arrival at the intended place, Mpu Rikmajenar and Martayuda immediately jumped down from his horse.
A stocky man with one eye covered with cowhide to cover the deformity of his left eye soon approached Martayuda.
"We're moving now Gusti Akuwu?"
