The Ancestral Country
Third Son
Mpu Warak who is famous for having the privilege of having a hard natural skin like rhino skin is really angry. During this time, whatever the opponent, will give up if you have to face his natural skin. He can be said to be the number one champion in the Duchy of Singhapura.
But this time, Prabu Jayengrana can make him vomit blood completely destroy his self-esteem.
Mpu Warak immediately hit his big right hand and reddish color on the chest of the Watugunung Panji. The King of Panjalu did not budge at all from the place of its foundation.
Dhhaaaanng!!!!
Mpu Warak's eyes bulged wide to see his punch in the Ajian Warak Geni like hit a hard metal slab when it hit the chest of Panji Watugunung.
One hard kick from the right leg of the Maharaja Panjalu landed right in the stomach of Mpu Warak.
Dhiieeeessshh!!!
Mpu Warak slammed into the back. The leader of Mount Semilir College was back up even though his mouth was again spitting out fresh blood. He stared intently at Panji Watugunung furiously.
Twice his attacks using his flagship Ajian Warak Geni had no effect whatsoever on the Watugunung Panji.
"Why stop?
Let's go again, wong Singhapura! Don't you want to kill me?", said Panji Watugunung with a big smile.
"Sat!
You underestimate me, Jayengrana. I still haven't lost to you", replied Mpu Warak while glaring furiously. He pulled a kris from his waist. The 7 notched keris emitted a red pamor smelling fishy blood as well as a yellowish red glow.
Mpu Warak then darted quickly towards Panji Watugunung while thrusting his heirloom keris towards the heart of the King of Panjalu.
Thrraannngggg!!
Mpu Warak's eyes again glared wide. Kris Omyang Jimbe's flagship heirloom is unable to penetrate the skin of the Watugunung Panji. It's like poking a hard steel plate.
Not wanting to play with Mpu Warak for long, Panji Watugunung immediately grabbed the neck of Mpu Warak with his right hand and blocked the right hand of the leader of Mount Semilir College who thrust a pucker.
Apparently the Panjalu King was using Ajian Waringin Sungsang. From his mouth was ejected a bluish green light that bound the entire body of Mpu Warak.
The pain is very attacking to every joint of the body and all parts of the body Mpu Warak. All life force and energy in Mpu Warak sucked into the body of Panji Watugunung.
Aaaarrrgggghhhhh!!!!!
Mpu Warak tried to escape from the Panji Watugunung check as well as the bluish green light that binds his body. The old man screamed loudly.
Slowly fresh blood came out from every hole in Mpu Warak's body. His dark skin continued to darken. Everyone who was there including Duke Damar Galih and Mpu Sogatan stared in horror at the sight before them.
Mpu Rikmajenar quietly retreated slowly from the place to escape.
When it reaches its peak, the originally large body of Mpu Warak leaves only skin and bone. The Watugunung banner quickly hit Mpu Warak's chest hard.
Hiyyyaaaaaaaattt!!!
Mmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!
Mpu Warak's body exploded into ashes. The loud explosion made the rest of the members of the Mount Semilir Padepokan stop their fight. They're surrendering.
Mpu Rikmajenar who had jumped on a horse was about to break his horse escape from that place. But a hard kick from Tumenggung Ludaka made the old man slammed down from his horse.
Not yet he stood, Tumenggung Ludaka directly dragged Mpu Rikmajenar in front of the Watugunung Panji and threw it in front of the King of Panjalu.
Mpu Rikmajenar's body hit the ground hard. The old grandfather's clothes and face were dirty by the grass and the ground.
"You try to escape again you're apparently Mpu Rikmajenar? Don't expect you I let go this time", said Panji Watugunung in a cold tone.
Mpu Rikmajenar immediately knelt in front of the Watugunung Panji.
"Pardon Gusti Prabu Jayengrana. I beg you to forgive the life of your servant. The guilty servant had dared to take action against Gusti Prabu.
Please forgive the life of Gusti Prabu's servant", Hiba Mpu Rikmajenar while worshiping at Watugunung Panji.
"Two fuckers!
If only this time I wanted, your life would I send to hell right now to atone for your sins as well as the death of the queen mother Dyah Kirana.
Killing you doesn't mean anything anymore. But your death must be witnessed by the residents of Kotaraja Kadiri to be an example for all those who want to mess with me" said Panji Watugunung soon.
Feeling that it was no longer possible to escape death, Mpu Rikmajenar secretly fingered the heirloom keris on his waist. The old man then jumped towards the Watugunung Panji while thrusting his dagger.
Dewi Srimpi who saw a suspicious wave from Mpu Rikmajenar immediately shot towards Mpu Rikmajenar while throwing a hard kick towards the chest of the traitor of the country.
Bhhuuuuuggh!
Aaauuuggghhhhh!
Mpu Rikmajenar slammed backwards and hit hard on the ground. The mouth of the old man spit out blood. Everyone who was shocked to see it immediately surrounded Mpu Rikmajenar. But the loud cries of the Watugunung Panji stopped their movements.
"Stop!
Don't kill him now! I want the people of Daha to see that person die there", said Panji Watugunung aloud.
Hearing that remark, Tumenggung Landung immediately brought a rope to tie the body of Mpu Rikmajenar. The high officer of the Panjalu warrior immediately tied the body of the old man was helped by some Panjalu soldiers.
The Watugunung banner immediately turned towards Duke Damar Galih and his subordinates.
"Duke of Damar Galih,
With the capture of Mpu Rikmajenar means the end of the problem between Panjalu and Singhapura.
I promise to withdraw both Seloageng and Land Perdikan Lodaya troops from the border of Singhapura.
From next week trade between the Duchy of Singhapura and the surrounding region will recover as usual. I promise you", said Panji Watugunung with a faint smile.
"I understand Gusti Prabu Jayengrana.
Representing all the people of the Duchy of Singhapura, we would like to thank Gusti Prabu Jayengrana for his wisdom. I also apologize to Gusti Prabu Jayengrana for our ignorance of Mpu Rikmajenar.
Hopefully in the future, there will be no more problems like this between Singhapura and Panjalu", said Adipati Damar Galih respectfully.
That day also Panji Watugunung group left Kota Kadipaten Singhapura. Duke Damar Galih lent a prisoner wagon to bring Mpu Rikmajenar back to Kadiri. Senopati Ragasingha himself escorted them to reach the border with Seloageng safely.
In the evening they stayed at a Siganggeng women on the Brantas River. The group received a warm welcome from the Rama or Lurah Wanua Siganggeng.
Morning is coming. The sound of early morning birds rumbling boisterously on the twigs of jackfruit trees. That morning the group of Panji Watugunung returned to continue the journey back to Kadiri. Upon entering the crossing pier to the Panjalu area, the owner of the crossing ship was surprised to see the arrival of the soldiers of the Duchy of Singhapura accompanied the group of Watugunung Panji who used his services the other day. He who recognized Senopati Ragasingha immediately approached the high-ranking officer of the Duchy of Singhapura.
"I'm sorry Gusti Senopati.
Why did Gusti Senopati bring them here? Is there a problem with them?", asked the ferryman politely.
"Jaga..
The person I brought with me was the Daha Palace entourage. Even Gusti Prabu Jayengrana was among them. Don't be disrespectful if you still love your work here" replied Senopati Ragasingha as she glanced at Panji Watugunung who just got off her horse.
Hearing the words of Senopati Ragasingha, the owner of the ferry boat immediately understood.
Assisted by the crew of the crossing, they moved the cage of prisoner Mpu Rikmajenar from the top of the wooden cart onto the crossing ship.
After everything is done, Panji Watugunung immediately begs Senopati Ragasingha. The high-ranking officer of the Singhapura Duchy soldier quickly nodded respectfully at the Panjalu King.
Mpu Rikmajenar continued to stare at the murky brownish water ripples of the Brantas river with blank eyes. Although there were tears of regret for all his actions in Panjalu, but the old grandfather also realized that the Watugunung Panji could not possibly forgive his life.
The ferry boat slowly left the pier leading to the Wanua Lawor region.
After staying at the Duchy of Seloageng and warmly welcomed by Duke Tejo Sumirat, the next day the Batu Gunung Panji and his entourage arrived at the Katang-katang palace.
After resting for one day, the next morning a court hearing was held for Mpu Rikmajenar. For having been proven guilty of great guilt to the Kingdom of Panjalu, Mpu Rikmajenar was executed by hanging in the Kotaraja Kadiri square as a warning to the citizens of the entire Panjalu kingdom not to commit treason or betray the kingdom of Panjalu.
The death penalty by hanging is the end of Mpu Rikmajenar's adventure in his efforts to undermine the authority of the Panjalu government.
As per his promise to Duke Damar Galih, trade with the Duchy of Singhapura was restored. The soldiers of the Duchy of Seloageng and the Land of Perdikan Lodaya pulled back from the border of Singhapura. The relationship between Panjalu and the Duchy of Singhapura slowly improved.
"Prabu Denmas, please,
There is something I want to ask from Denmas Prabu", said Dewi Srimpi while looking down at the Watugunung Panji.
"Why did you say that to Dinda Srimpi? Has anyone forgotten my attention to you?", asked Panji Watugunung immediately.
"I'm sorry Denmas Prabu,
I I want to find my parents' whereabouts in Karang Anom Duchy", replied Dewi Srimpi with a slight sob. There were tears in his eyes. Panji Watugunung immediately stood up and grabbed the body of Dewi Srimpi. The third concubine Panji Watugunung immediately shed her heart of sadness that she pendam since the events on the edge of the Soka forest.
"I'm sorry Dinda Srimpi..
Our recent busyness made me forget your request the other day.
After my son was born, we went there. You just calm down, Dinda?", said Panji Watugunung with a smile knot.
"When will the Third Empress give birth to Denmas Prabu?", Dewi Srimpi looked at her husband's handsome face.
"Today's Dinda Srimpi,
You who are good at medicine can not check the state of Naganingrum, Dinda?", Panji Watugunung smiled faintly.
"Let's go there, Denmas Prabu..
I also want to know when the Third Empress gave birth", Dewi Srimpi pulled the hand of Panji Watugunung immediately. They rushed towards the private Castle of Dewi Naganingrum which was in the middle.
Arriving there, the wives of Panji Watugunung are gathering together. Seen Dewi Anggarawati, Ayu Galuh, Sekar Mayang, Ratna Pitaloka and Cempluk Rara Sunti are crowded in front of the private Castle of Dewi Naganingrum.
"What's this about? Why are you all gathered here?", asked Panji Watugunung immediately.
"Ah Kangmas Prabu,
Looks like there's some good news for you. Dinda Naganingrum was about to give birth. From earlier the signs were visible", Ayu Galuh replied quickly.
"Jagat Dewa Batara,
Ahh thank goodness. May he be born healthy and safe.
Dinda Srimpi,
Please help your brother give birth to my son. Let me know if anything happens" Panji Watugunung said immediately. Dewi Srimpi nodded in understanding.
That afternoon, the Watugunung Panji paced around the private Castle of Dewi Naganingrum. The face of the king of Panjalu seemed to think of something.
Shortly after, a baby cry was heard from the bedroom of Dewi Naganingrum. Patugunung Panji immediately ran towards the front of the third empress' bedroom.
Arriving there, Dewi Anggarawati in front of the bedroom Dewi Naganingrum stood up while smiling at her.
"Hold Kangmas Prabu, don't be in a hurry to get inside. The palace and ladies are cleaning the birthplace of your son" said Dewi Anggarawati with a sweet smile.
"Has Dinda Naganingrum and my son survived Dinda Anggarawati?", asked Panji Watugunung immediately.
"Calm down Kangmas. There's Srimpi there. Believe me everything will be fine", replied Dewi Anggarawati with a smile knot.
Although still a little worried, Panji Watugunung tried to smile while calming his heart.
Not long after, Dewi Srimpi came out of the bedroom of Dewi Naganingrum while holding a tiny baby who was still red. Looks like he just got bathed. The Watugunung banner immediately approached him.
"Happy Denmas Prabu, Dewi Naganingrum gave birth to a son for you" said Dewi Srimpi with a sweet smile. Patugunung banner hurriedly received the baby when Dewi Srimpi reached out to her.
"Now meet the third empress in Denmas, she is waiting for you" added Dewi Srimpi soon.
The Watugunung banner immediately nodded in understanding. King Panjalu was immediately entered into the bedroom of the private Castle of Dewi Naganingrum.
The third empress of Patugunung Panji was still pale on her bed when Panji Watugunung. With a thin smile he looked at the arrival of Panji Watugunung and his son who had been wrapped in red cloth.
"Thank you Dinda Naganingrum, you are great to have given birth to a handsome son for me" Panji Watugunung said immediately.
"Sami Sami Akang Kasep's..
Similar to henteu with Eneng?", asked Dewi Naganingrum with a thin smile with lips that still paled.
"Let's see for yourself, Dinda. He is very handsome, inheriting the handsome face of Prabu Darmaraja", replied Panji Watugunung with a knotty smile. The king of Panjalu immediately put the baby next to Dewi Naganingrum who was still sleeping on his bed.
Goddess Naganingrum immediately held the tiny baby in her arms. He really feels happy. She felt perfect being a wife who gave birth to a son for her beloved husband.
From the outside, the wives of Panji Watugunung went into the bedroom of Dewi Naganingrum. Each congratulated the birth of the third son of Panji Watugunung on Dewi Naganingrum and Panji Watugunung.
"Prabu Kangmas, please,
What is your son named for?", asked Ayu Galuh immediately. The wives of Patugunung Panji immediately turned their heads towards Watugunung Panji including Dewi Naganingrum.
"This year I gained glory by subjugating a mountainous region without bloodshed.
My third son I named Panji Jayagiri as a reminder of my victory in the Duchy of Singhapura", replied Panji Watugunung smilingly looking at the tiny baby beside Dewi Naganingrum.
The news of the birth of Panji Jayagiri was greeted with happiness throughout the Kota Kadiri region. Various yellow janur and flashing lights decorate all corners of the city which became the new capital of the Kingdom of Panjalu. All Kadiri citizens were happy with the birth of the third son of Panji Watugunung.
***
On the edge of the port of Kambang Putih, in the territory of the eastern Duchy of Bojonegoro, a large ship had just docked.
From inside the ship a burly man with a handsome face of a noble looks out while staring at the port of Kambang Putih which is crowded with people who just got off their ship or who want to leave the area.
Behind the man some people followed his steps then stood beside the noble man. Seeing their makeup, it is certain they are not from the land of Java.
The burly man looked towards the blue sky in the south while saying,
"Jawadwipa I have come to claim the right to the throne of my ancestors"
