Seeing the attitude of the Rengganis in welcoming his arrival and Parvati, the heart of the Maharani became relieved. His fear all this time, if Wisanggeni's first wife did not receive it faded already. It was all just fear he felt. Right now, in front of him sat Wisanggeni who was incessantly staring at him from earlier. Long time no see, Maharani heart felt thumping at the gaze that had not seen for a long time.
"I'm sorry Nimas kang Wisang.., without your permission I came to follow you to this college. I just wanted to introduce to the baby I was carrying at the time, about the figure of his father. But.., if Kang Wisanggeni or Nimas Rengganis object to accept the presence of the Maharani, then I will take Parvati away from the padhepokan immediately." Maharani ventured to speak to Wisanggeni. The woman was really uncomfortable with the current situation. He felt as a destroyer of the happiness of his first husband and wife.
"You think too much Nimas. I feel happy, because you are willing to sacrifice your life full of service in the serpent kingdom. If I may ask, accompany me and Nimas Rengganis together at this college. I am sure that Nimas Rengganis was also very happy and accepted your presence with Parvati." gently, Wisanggeni responded to the words of the Empress. The man approached the Maharani, then embraced the woman who had completed his happiness. His life was complete with the presence of two children, sons and daughters.
"Thank you for the reception of Akang.." The maharani rests his head on the man's chest. The two men let go of each other, and faded each other's feelings. Until suddenly..
"Tok.., tok.., tok.." The door was knocked from the outside. Maharani pulled her body from her husband's embrace. After tidying up her clothes, the woman stepped towards the door, then opened it. The lady-in-waiting, which the Empress brought from the serpent kingdom, was at the door with a pot of drinks and three cups of earth.
"What did you bring Auntie..?" Maharani smiled at the arrival of the lady who always served him faithfully.
"Just warm ginger water Gusti Ratu.., it seems that Den Wisang has come. All I provide for Den Bagus Wisanggeni and also for Den Ayu Rengganis." said the ladyboy while stepping into the senthong used for Maharani. The woman bowed her body saluting Wisanggeni. Dayang had met with Wisanggeni several times, so he could immediately recognize the man.
"Selakan enjoyed Den Bagus.., warm ginger water and snacks ala perfetnya." the dayang asked Wisanggeni to taste the drinks and snacks he brought.
"Thank you mbok.., go back to your place!" Wisanggeni immediately asked the woman to return to where she was. After bowing his body again to pay his respects, the lady-in-waiting immediately stepped out of the Maharani senthong.
Maharani immediately poured a warm ginger drink into the ground cup, then gave it to Wisanggeni. The man received the cup and then tasted it. After tasting a few sips, the boiled beans became the next target.

In the woods..
The three friends of Ashanka's Chakra rewind their bodies, and stuff Wisanggeni's son. They were terrified to see such a huge beast blocking them in front of him. Ashanka's chakra stopped her steps, as the young man found it difficult to walk. Sayogyo, Prastowo and Tarjono are no longer beside the Ashanka Chakra, the three holding the Ashanka Chakra body thus inhibiting the young man from walking.
"In front of that is what Ashan...., like an elephant but why creepy?' tanya Tarjono trembled. And so did his other two friends.
Ashanka's chakra smiled, the youngster could see and penetrate into the beast's body. Feeling the energy and aura of his strength surpassing that of the beast, Ashanka Chakra was calm. Especially in his fist, the young man also hid SInga Resti. And the tiger had a magic ability higher than the elephant-like beast in front of him.
"Calm down.., I'll take the animal to talk" Chakra Ashanka said. The three young boy's friends rewinded their bodies backwards. They gave the young man a chance to get the animal to talk.
"Uuuk aaaa.., uuukk aaaa.." The sound of the ape beast in the forest seemed to accompany the night, making the atmosphere become more creepy.
"What's the horned elephant.., do you want to get me and my friends acquainted?" Ashanka's chakra runs closer to the beast. Seeing the arrival of the youngster in front of him, the beast looked furious.
"Ngiiiikkkk.. bruummm.." the horned elephant roared, with red eyes drawing toward the Ashanka chakra. The beast tapered the horn and ivory on its front body, ready to attack the four young men in front of it.
"Don't bother us elephants. We won't bother you nor all the animals in this forest. We just want to pass through this forest, to be able to reach the villages and towns that are across this forest." Ashanka's chakra responds to the roar of the beast's voice with words.
Seeing the elephant getting closer to her with a look of anger, Ashanka's chakra rewinds her body backwards. The young man raised both his hands in front of his body, then his fingers made a symbol. After taking a deep breath, the aura and core energy directed the youngster towards both of his palms. With a smile, Ashanka Chakra raised one hand up, and a wisp of orange-colored energy was seen illuminating the darkness surrounding the forest. The three friends of Chakra Ashanka looked at each other, they did not think that the young man in front of him had many tactics in fighting.
The eyes of the horned elephant beast widened looking at the wisp of energy in the young boy's hand. With a growl, the beast galloped forward to smash into Ashanka's chakra. Looking at the beast that looked angry and had the intention to attack him, the youngster shifted his body to the right, and directed the wisp of energy towards the angry-looking beast.
"Jeglarrr..., brukk.." the sound of colliding energy thumping sounded electrifying the night and quiet atmosphere in the forest. The other beasts ran away feeling a huge energy force oppressing his strength.
With just a single strike, the horned elephant fell to the side. The four legs of the beast could not be moved, feeling like they were tied by a long rope. Chakra Ashanka smiled, then walked over to the fallen beast lying on the ground.
