King Adhyaksa who led the current Logandheng kingdom, looked in disbelief at the royal pendhopo. Inside the room, the man saw the whereabouts of Bhadra Arsyanendra accompanied by Chkara Ashanka and his two loyal bodyguards. The current king of Logandheng walked up to the two young men, then sat in front of him.
"Younger party genitals, give greetings to older parties.. Uncle Adhyaksa.., Bhadra Arsyanendra came to visit, and hopefully uncle did not feel disturbed by the arrival of the two of us." unexpectedly, the little boy who when leaving the kingdom, was not so able to express an opinion, not so much, currently dare to greet King Adhyaksa in a loud voice.
"Don't embarrass me Raden Bhadra. This kingdom is yours, at any time you can take it back, if you want it. Welcome back my niece.., I welcome your arrival.." with a slightly embarrassed face, King Adhyaksa replied to the little boy. Ashanka Chakra just silently observed the interaction between the two people.
Suddenly from the side door came the maids carrying many trays of food and drink. They immediately took him and placed all the banquets on the long table in front of them sitting. King Adhyaksa smiled seeing that, then..
"There's nothing wrong with us filling our bellies with this banquet my niece. Uncle sure, if it has been a long time, you have rarely enjoyed many typical foods of the Logandheng kingdom. Let us take a moment to enjoy it, invite your friends to eat with us." seeing all the food has been served and neatly arranged, the king of Adhyaksa invited Bhadra Arsyanendra to enjoy the banquet.
Before the little boy picked up the food, the two maids swiftly took the food sample, then stuffed it into a place made of bamboo. Chakra Ashanka just kept silent to see it. After a while,..
"Please enjoy the dish Raden Bhadra.., it is certain that everything served in this pendhopo does not contain poison in it." the bodyguard gave an examination report to the little boy. Hearing this, Ashanka Chakra understood what the guards were doing. Such a precautionary attitude is indeed needed to ensure the safety of their lord.
"Hmmm.., that's how you take precautions with the palace. I wouldn't have possibly used a sneaky way to hurt you my nephew. I have considered you my own son, and even now, if you will, I will give you the throne of the kingdom," King Adhyaksa was slightly offended by the guardianship shown by Bhadra Arsyanendra's bodyguards. With a gaze filled with anger, the man responded to what he saw.
"It was not the thing that stirred up the anger of uncle Adhyaksa. The two bodyguards have been guarding Bhadra since Bhadra was a child, since Bhadra was born they have been with the King's father and the Queen's mother uncle.. It is only natural that the two bodyguards maintain Bhadra's security and safety. Please uncle Adhyaksa not offended, and understand their actions." seeing the attitude of King Adhyaksa who was like a displeasure, Bhadra Arsyanendra immediately explained the attitude of the two guards, and the,
Without waiting for a response from the current king of Logandheng, Bhadra immediately took some food and sipped some drinks from the glass that had been prepared for them. Chakra Ashanka also did the same thing, finally the king of Adhyaksa was silent.The man then did the same thing, with the two young men.

Some time later..
Hearing the question from his nephew, who was also the king's successor crown prince in the current Logandheng kingdom, made king Adhyaksa nervous. The man sipped some water, then..
"My nephew Bhadra Arsyanendra.. All that is just a misunderstanding, and according to reports there are a few people from the Mount Jambu college who interfere in this matter. Maybe they want to seize power from our kingdom, taking advantage of the opportunity of your late father's death. But, don't worry my niece, in the future it won't happen again. Although by bringing the victim Senopati Wiroyudho, and lastly Patih Wirosobo, I'm sure the people from the Mount Jambu College will not dare to make a mess anymore." Raden Adhyaksa gave an explanation of what happened in the kingdom lately.
Hearing the name of the college being called, Ashanka's Chakra eyes were already rounded. But thinking, with whom he was currently talking, and where he was, the young man was trying to control himself.
"Did you just hear from one side, uncle has done a massive battle on the college?? Didn't the uncle send a password to find out what happened." with a cynical smile, Bhadra Arsyanendra responded to the words spoken by his uncle.
Hearing the reaction shown by his nephew, the look on the face of king Adhyaksa looked less happy.
"This uncle is not the son of yesterday afternoon Raden Bhadra, no need to teach how uncle should behave. Uncle also saw for himself, with his disrespect some time not long ago, there was a young woman from the college, who tried to get into the royal event. The woman took advantage of the weakness of Patih Wirosobo's youngest son. Does that not prove, if the people from the Gunung Jambu college, are indeed trying to find trouble with the Logandheng kingdom?" King Adhyaksa spoke in a high tone.
"If it had been believed by the uncle as something that became a problem, then forever uncle would have considered it a problem. If uncle Adhyaksa knows.., behind the college of Mount Jambu is my own uncle, nephew uncle Bhadra Arsyanendra.." to remind his uncle, to, the little boy acknowledged as the person behind the Gunung Jambu college.
"What do you mean Raden Bhadra..?? Don't play around, and take this matter for granted. The fall of the two royal figures proved, how ferocious the people of the college were." Raden Adhyaksa saw the face of Bhadra Arsyanendra getting closer. The man did not believe the words that the little boy had said.
"Ha.., ha.., ha. may uncle Adhyaksa not be fooled, and be easily lied to by a handful of people who want to play and take advantage of this. Be careful uncle, many enemies are hiding in the blankets we use every day to cover our bodies. It was so trusting that his uncle trusted Patih Wirosobo and all his family members. So without realizing it, it has given orders to send troops. And. the army was used to kill his own nephew.." unequivocally without the slightest fear, Bhadra Arsyanendra told his story.
