As the night wore on and the moonlight slowly rose after a long rain fluttered the palace, Pandita was seen stepping towards Wardhana's room with a shunt, this was the fourth time she tried to meet Wardhana.
The cold air that night did not dampen his steps to meet the Mahapatih Malwageni. He is not unaware that he is being played by Wardhana but at this time one of the ministers who are powerful enough can not do anything but follow the game Wardhana.
For three consecutive nights he came to Wardhana's room but was always rejected on the grounds of being a lot of work.
"Damn, I was really caught between their feuds," said Pandita while holding back the cold air that pierced her body.
He stopped his steps when he saw some guards at the entrance of the room, the rejection that had happened earlier came back to his mind.
"Sir, you have been waiting for Mr. Patih," said one of the soldiers to deflect Pandita's doubts. His face became excited, he stepped quickly into the luxurious room.
"Honor to Mr. Patih" said Pandita saluted.
"Sit down" replied Wardhana flatly.
Getting a hostile reception, Pandita still tried to smile even though she had to, she did not want the situation to be more complicated if it offended Wardhana.
"Did you get my message?" ask Wardhana slowly.
Pandita nodded quickly, "Right sir, thank you for inviting me," Pandita replied.
Wardhana handed some scrolls to Pandita.
"The appointment of the Prince as the Chief Examiner requires that we open all the problems in his past including the alleged involvement of concubine Anjani in the attempted rebellion against Malwageni.
His position as acting examiner is very important at this time, I want to reopen the case of the rebellion to clear the Prince's name and I want you to help me," Wardhana said slowly.
Pandita's face began to change, now he understands where Wardhana's plan indirectly wants to uncover his involvement in the attempted rebellion.
Pandita is one of the officials involved in inciting concubine Anjani to rebel but after Paksi managed to uncover everything, he bestows all the blame on Anjani, who is not the one who is involved, so only Anjani and some middle officials received punishment from Arya Dwipa.
"Is this not too risky sir? I'm afraid the prince is offended and angry with the reopening of this case," replied Pandita hearted, he realized that he faced this time was the best investigator Nuswantoro.
"I've always believed that mistress concubine was only a victim of the greed of the officials of the past. Now that the prince lives with that burden, he's always on the stamp of Malwageni traitor son, I intend to clear his name by revealing the real culprit, do you think he will be angry?"
Pandita fell silent again, if Wardhana really wants to uncover the real culprit then he is the first person who will be dragged into custody.
"Sorry sir, what exactly are you planning? why do you ask the servant to help, is not the position of the servant as Minister of Pakirakiran currently not related to this problem?" ask Pandita.
"Have you forgotten that you were the one leading their examination? you also recommended mistress concubines and other officials to be punished. I want to ask you for an explanation on the basis that made you decide they were guilty at the time" Wardhana replied quickly.
Pandita's face turned deathly pale, she could not answer Wardhana's question because at that time she faked all the evidence and witnesses to ensnare Anjani.
"Sir, regarding the matter..," Pandita had not yet finished his remark, Wardhana immediately cut off.
"Are you involved? all the evidence I have examined is weak and without basis, I cannot imagine if the Prince who now has an important position knows this matter. Not only do you have to deal with me but with all the residents of the palace," said Wardhana quickly.
"Sir..." Pandita looks panicked, she does not know what to answer because everything Wardhana says is true, especially when she sees evidence of false evidence has been confiscated by Wardhana.
"Listen to Mr. Pandita," Wardhana's voice began to harden after successfully destroying Pandita's defenses all along.
"I know you and Adiwilaga are involved in this matter, but I will try to protect you because you were a confidant of His Highness Arya Dwipa on several conditions.
First help me frame Adiwilaga because somehow someone has to go to jail and be punished for this case to clear the prince's name. I want you to tell me in detail about Adiwilaga's role in this matter and look for evidence of the royal financial misappropriation used by her to rot in custody.
The second, after all the problems were done, step back from the position of Minister and go as far as possible from Malwageni, I did not want to see the faces of the traitors in the palace. I think it's a better reply than you and all your family to die at the gallows" Wardhana said, threateningly.
Pandita took a deep breath, he felt this time really cornered by Wardhana, all access exit as if closed with the reopening of the rebellion case.
"The rebellion was my biggest mistake and had nothing to do with my son and my wife, please help me then I will do whatever your orders," Pandita's voice trembled, he was really desperate because his family's life was now threatened.
Wardhana smiled with satisfaction after hearing Pandita's words, now that the situation was fully within her grasp.
"As I said earlier help me frame the traitors who support Adiwilaga. The first step you have to do is to seek the support of the ministers to escort the queen's orders regarding the re-investigation of all the kingdom's financial statements.
I'm sure Adiwilaga will balk and try to influence the other ministers and your job is to make sure that doesn't happen. At the moment Adiwilaga probably already knows if you are related to me and she must be targeting your family, only I can protect you at this time" Wardhana said slowly.
Pandita closed her eyes while breathing, now she understood why Wardhana refused to meet up three times.
Wardhana wants Adiwilaga to find out if Pandita is in contact with him so that he further cornered Pandita's position.
"Everything was planned very carefully including making my relationship with Adiwilaga deteriorate, now my only choice is to help her. He is truly terrible" Pandita said in her heart.
"Are you right to guarantee my family's safety?"
"You don't have to worry, I've been doing everything since the Sora Cow met you in the forest" replied Wardhana quickly.
"Well, I'll do all your orders, Mr. Patih. I have some evidence of Adiwilaga's involvement in Madame Anjani's rebellion and some of the royal financial statements used by her" Pandita replied softly.
Wardhana nodded slowly, she seemed to think for a moment before giving a sign to get closer.
"I want to ask you to do something" Wardhana whispered something to Pandita.
"Sir, that..." Pandita could not hide her surprise.
"Just do it, I'll be in charge of everything" Wardhana replied.
"Ba..baik sir," said Pandita confused.

"Is that all you're capable of? you are even slower than an old man like me," Revelation Tama ran fast while carrying a full water container in both hands.
"His natural talent is indeed very large" said Wahyu Tama in his heart when he saw the two containers of water brought by Sabrang nothing spilled.
"Let's go down the cake again" said Sabrang upset, he is sure this time will win the race with Wahyu Tama.
"Enough, I have seen the strength of your wrists, now you can use all your swords perfectly," Revelation Tama cleared all the water they brought before taking Sabrang in.
"There's something I want to show you" said Wahyu Tama as he stepped in.
Revelation Tama asks Sabrang to sit in front of him while sitting cross-legged.
"You don't seem to have used fire demonic energy since you lived here, have you? now that your body condition has improved, I want you to draw that energy and cover your body with that fire" said Wahyu Tama slowly.
Sabrang looks confused by Wahyu Tama's request but he does it anyway. He closed his eyes and started using Ajian Core Melting Saketi.
"The Saketi Melting Inti? he even mastered that style, to what extent was the limit of his natural talent?" revelation Tama was surprised.
"Fire Dragon," Sabrang's quick pinta.
"I know," replied the Fire Dragon as it channeled its energy into Sabrang's body. Slowly but surely, the flames began to envelop Sabrang's body and grew bigger. Tama's revelation even had to take a few steps back when her body felt extremely hot.
"So this is the power of the Fire Devil? how could he not feel the heat at all when the flames were all over his body?" say Wahyu Tama amaze.
His eyes seemed to be fixed on some parts of Sabrang's body whose flames looked the biggest.
"The hell's clashing with each other? what maybe?" Tama's revelation is seen noticing the blaze before asking Sabrang to recant all his energy.
"Did you feel pain while using the fire demon energy?" tanya Wahyu Tama arrived.
Sabrang nodded softly, "My body is indeed not ready to accept the power of the Fire God entirely," Sabrang replied softly.
"No, that's not the case, you're endowed with a very special body and I'm sure you're currently capable of harboring any amount of energy including a fire demon but you made a fatal mistake, more precisely the creator of the Eternal Flame style who made that mistake," replied Revelation Tama slowly.
"My body is able to hold the energy of the Fire God?" sabrang asked in surprise, not only Sabrang, the Fire Dragon was very surprised by the speech of Revelation Tama.
"He's just bragging, you just need to train your body strength," the Fire Dragon replied resentfully, he felt slighted by Revelation Tama.
"What makes your body unable to hold the power of the fire Devil is the collision of the inner power between yours and the Fire Devil and it is caused by the Eternal Flame skill.
The gentle nature of the immortal flame stance was in sharp contrast to the explosive demonic energy of the flames and that was what made the two energies in your body clash with each other. The fire demon might be able to adjust its energy but you won't be able to maximize its energy until at any time if it continues like this, in other words, the immortal Fire Demon is no match for the fire demon.
Didn't I tell you that the greatest mistake of the warriors today is to forget this little thing and put great manners first" replied Wahyu Tama.
"So according to grandpa?"
"Destroy the eternal Flame and never use it again, after that we will see the true power of the Fire God using this sword style," The Revelation of Tama took a book of his nailed and showed it to Sabrang.
"The Book of Sabdo Palon?" Sabrang scrunched his forehead.
"I will explain later, there are some things I want to ask you" replied Revelation Tama.
Revelation Tama closed her eyes for a moment, he seemed hesitant to hand Sabdo Palon's sword book over to Sabrang because the combined strength of the sword book's skill and Sabrang's natural talent could be terrible if the young man went the wrong way and had great ambitions.
"Do you believe the martial world will one day be at peace? you may be able to kill all enemies with your power to create peace, but can it be called peace if you create it by killing each other?" ask Revelation Tama seriously.
Sabrang looked surprised by the question of Revelation Tama, his mouth felt stiff to answer the question. Revelation Tama seems to question the principle of all warriors in the martial world who want to create peace with bloodshed.
"Let me know if you have the answer and if the answer makes me satisfied not only this book I will give you but all the science I have," say Wahyu Tama as he steps away from Sabrang himself.

"Wait, I feel it" said Siren Tiba arrived as Mentari and Sekar Pitaloka were training in the former ruins of the northern Ice Tread sect.
"Felt it?" Mentari suddenly jumped back and asked Sekar Pitaloka to stop for a while.
"The energy of the Fire Dragon, although very weak but I'm sure it felt," replied Siren Quickly.
"Are you hurt dance?" said Sekar Pitaloka who directly examined the body of Mentari.
"Please don't worry too much about the queen mother, I'm fine," Mentari held onto Sekar Pitaloka's two hands with a happy face, her tears began to flow.
"The queen mother Siren managed to feel the energy of the Fire Dragon for a moment" Mentari said excitedly.
"really? thank God, do you remember what I said yesterday? I'm sure Sabrang is still alive" Sekar Pitaloka replied in relief.
Mentari nodded slowly, she really could not help but tear out of her beautiful eyes.
"Now, we go back to the palace and you have to keep your womb so that when he comes back, it will be his most beautiful gift" said Sekar Pitaloka softly.
"Well, the servant queen mother will remember all your messages," Mentari replied excitedly.
"Siren, keep looking for where the Fire Dragon energy is, this time I don't want you to lose track of it back," Mentari ordered.
