The Return of the Fire Dragon Swordsman
Prince Adipati Panji Tejo Laksono

Hearing a loud shout from Paksijandu, Nalini immediately slammed her right palm twice. Two blue rays of air-conditioned air rushed towards Panji Tejo Laksono.

Whuuuggghh whuuth !!

Tejo Laksono's banner immediately clumped backwards avoiding the cold blue light that was struck on him. This young prince from Kadiri moved away nearly 4 spears behind.

Blllaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrr blllaaaaaarrr!!

Two consecutive explosions were heard when the blue light released by Nalini hit one of the stone pillars on the walls of the palace of the Duchy of Seloageng. The pillar exploded and shattered into pieces. This proves that Nalini has conducted high-level studies.

But after successfully avoiding Nalini's attack, Panji Tejo Laksono who used Ajian Sepi Wind darted quickly towards Nalini. The speed of Ajian Sepi Breeze the final level really makes his body movements difficult to see with the naked eye especially the dimness of the moonlight also disguises his vision. Suddenly, Panji Tejo Laksono had appeared before Nalini with his right hand already turning a yellowish-red color indicating that he had already cast Ajian the Fire God's Tread.

As fast as lightning he smashed towards Nalini who was floundering with his sudden appearance. Nalini can only survive by hitting Panji Tejo Laksono using his Ajian Cecah Langit.

Bllaammmmmmm!!

Terrible explosions were heard as the two studies clashed. Nalini roared loudly and her body bounced far back, coming out from the top of the palace walls of the Seloageng Duchy. The pilot who was surprised to see the fast incident, with all his strength tracing the ground hard and then slid down grabbed the body of his younger brother who almost hit the ground.

Huuuoooggggh..!!

Nalini vomited fresh blood. Apparently he suffered internal injuries due to his inner power ability which was still far below the Panji Tejo Laksono. Seeing his younger brother injured, Paksijandu soon realized that the opponent they were facing was not an ordinary opponent. Immediately he threw two yellow balls at Panji Tejo Laksono who darted rapidly towards them.

Shreeeeetttthhh shreeeeetttthhh !!

Seeing the attack of this secret weapon, Panji Tejo Laksono expressed his intention to capture the two intruders. He quickly changed his direction and slammed his palms into two yellow balls the size of pigeon eggs.

Whuussshh ..

Blllaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrr !!

The two yellow balls exploded and created a thick yellowish smoke that smelled fragrant. Panji Tejo Laksono who had heard of the poison smoke, quickly closed his airway and jumped back several spears backwards.

At that time, Prince Arya Tanggos, Patih Dyah Suwanda, Raden Windusegoro and Raden Damar Sasongko arrived at that place. They had all seen two people who were opponents of Panji Tejo Laksono.When they were about to advance with the intention of helping to catch the two intruders, Panji Tejo Laksono's hand immediately blocked.

"Don't go forward, it's toxic smoke".

Hearing those words, the four of them immediately stopped their steps. After the yellow smoke disappeared in the wind, they looked for a figure who was opposite Panji Tejo Laksono but Nalini and Pakijandu had disappeared not in their place earlier.

"Suckers!

They escaped Gusti Pangeran", Raden Damar Sasongko said as soon as he saw the two men were not in his place.

"Leave it, Raden..

We better get back to where we were. Security affairs let be handled by the soldiers who stand guard" Panji Tejo Laksono said as he turned around and stepped away from the place of the fight. Prince Arya Tanggi, Patih Dyah Suwanda, Raden Windusegoro and Raden Damar Sasongko immediately followed the prince's steps towards the private room of Duke Seloageng where they had gathered.

Meanwhile, Paksijandu, who carried Nalini's body, continued to accelerate south to the meeting place with Gorawangsa. Nalini continued to vomit blood, a sign of her internal injuries quite affecting some organs in her body. Arriving near the large banyan tree outside the boundary of the Seloageng Duchy City, Pakijandu immediately shouted loudly.

"Gorawangsa's back, help me!"

From behind the dimly lit trees in the darkness of the night, a shadow flashed near where the two of them stopped. The shadow that is none other than Gorawangsa was surprised not to play to see Nalini who was injured in the sling Pakijandu.

"Why is this possible, Axis?? What has happened?", asked Gorawangsa while helping Pakijandu lower Nalini's weakened body. With his help, Nalini was immediately placed on the ground.

"We fought a powerful warrior, Kakang. Nalini used Ajian Cecah Langit to deal with her, yet Nalini was no match for that person.

Quick Kakang, please Nalini", said Pakijandu anxiously to see the condition of Nalini's weakened body.

Gorawangsa immediately sat cross-legged behind Nalini's body, quickly he immediately channeled his inner power on her younger brother's back.

Huuuoooggggh..!!

Nalini again vomited black blood. This is a sign that the blood clot in his body has been removed. After twice vomiting blood, Nalini's face gradually reddened. Although his lips still look pale, but he looks more fresh than before.

Hmmmmmm

"Kakang Gorawangsa must be careful if you want to carry out the tasks given to Kakang..

The warrior mastered the science of lightening the highest body. Like that is the final level of Ajian Sepi Wind as told by our teacher, Begawan Randuagung", Paksijandu said immediately.

"I've received money, Axis. Whatever the risk, I have to be ready to face it.

Take Nalini away, take care of her internal injuries. This business let me finish" said Gorawangsa while standing from his seat.

"Be careful, Brother. If you can not face the swordsman", hearing Pakijandu's warning, Gorawangsa nodded in understanding. The students of Mount Bromo Padepokan immediately tracked the ground, then darted towards the Kembang Melati Inn leaving Nalini and Pakijandu.

The night continues to move towards the morning. The cold atmosphere felt so bone-chilling. The air at the beginning of this dry season feels cooler than usual. Along with the appearance of flowers on the palanquin tree, it is a sign that the dry season has begun.

The next morning, a busy atmosphere was already felt inside the palace of the Duchy of Seloageng. Today is the coronation day of Panji Tejo Laksono as the new Duke of Seloageng. The palace cooks had been working in the palace kitchen since the beginning of the roosters crowing. While on the side of the grand pendopo, the palace ladies are busy arranging the space and seating for all the invited guests who have been present since yesterday. Hundreds of soldiers were on full alert around the palace, preparing to guard against any impending eventuality.

That morning, Panji Tejo Laksono who just finished bathing directly dandani by his four wives who have dressed beautifully like a noble woman. A sleeveless dark blue silk shirt with gold thread embroidered on its fringes was immediately put on by Panji Tejo Laksono with the help of Ayu Ratna and Gayatri. Song Zhao Meng and Luh Jingga helped the two of them by preparing everything for the grooming of the new Duke of Seloageng. Although not yet wearing the crown of the Duchy of Seloageng, Panji Tejo Laksono already looks handsome and authoritative.

Gending gamelan softened when Panji Tejo Laksono began to enter the Grand Duchy of Seloageng accompanied by Ayu Ratna, Song Zhao Meng, Gayatri and Luh Jingga.

Invitational guests and courtiers of Seloageng sat lined up in chairs reserved for them. The idlers or their personal guards sat behind the seats of the dignitaries. All of them sit according to their offices. All Akuwu and Kraman or Lurah Wanua in the Seloageng Duchy were also present at the place as a form of their recognition of the new Seloageng Duke.

In front of the throne of the Duchy of Seloageng, there is a large family of Seloageng Duchy Palace sitting in a row. On the left side are filled by women such as Nararya Candradewi, Dewi Anggarawati and Dewi Anggarasari. While on the right side there is Prabu Jayengrana, Patih Sancaka and Maheswara sitting together. On the left right side of the throne is provided 4 lower seats. It was the seat for the four wives of Panji Tejo Laksono. While the crown of the Duchy of Seloageng was placed on the throne.

As soon as Panji Tejo Laksono reached the throne, Prabu Jayengrana immediately stood up from his seat. While the Maharesi Baratwaja of Ranja Hermit who was asked by Prabu Jayengrana to give a prayer immediately stood up. The hands of the old hermit substitute Maharesi Mpu Soma who had died soon took the holy water and sprinkled it on the Panji Tejo Laksono who squatted and worshiped on the throne Seloageng. The old hermit's mouth continued to say prayers of praise to Lord Vishnu while continuing to surround Panji Tejo Laksono and his four wives.

"Oh Sanghyang Preserver of the Universe,

Praise and praise to you, I say,

Bless Prince Panji Tejo Laksono,

To lead this Duchy of Seloageng,

You are the eternal Preserver of the Universe...".

Finished giving a prayer, Maharesi Baratwaja immediately nodded his head at Prabu Jayengrana and Maharaja Panjalu was immediately stepped towards Seloageng throne. Immediately Prabu Jayengrana lifted the crown of the greatness of the Duchy of Seloageng and turned his direction on the Panji Tejo Laksono who was still squatting worship.

"Panji Tejo Laksono...

With this I crown you as the ruler of the Duchy of Seloageng with the title of Prince Adipati Panji Tejo Laksono. Hopefully under your leadership later, Seloageng became more prosperous", after saying so, Prabu Jayengrana immediately put the Seloageng crown on the head of Tejo Laksono Panji.

Applause sounded low-pretty boisterous as if echoing in the Grand Duchy of Seloageng welcomed the new Duke. Prabu Jayengrana smiled in a knot and sat back in her chair. Panji Tejo Laksono immediately stood up from his squatting spot followed by his four wives. Panji Tejo Laksono immediately walked up to Seloageng throne and sat there. All four of his wives immediately sat in the provided place. After sitting down, Panji Tejo Laksono immediately raised his right hand. The low boisterous atmosphere was instantly silent for a moment.

"I Prince Adipati Panji Tejo Laksono promised to organize and manage the government in Seloageng as soon as possible.

And I also promised to try hard to make the Duchy of Seloageng more prosperous than before", said Panji Tejo Laksono immediately received applause from Seloageng officials as well as the Akuwu and Kraman.

After that, Maheswara immediately gave a signal to the gamelan harvesters to ring their gamelan.4 beautiful women in colored clothes immediately appeared from the side of the Grand Pendopo of Seloageng Duchy. The gentle gending tayub accompanied every move of their gleaming bodies.

Panji Tejo Laksono slightly frowned looking at the tayub dancer who was dancing with a flutter in front of him. He immediately turned his head towards Gayatri who seemed to also remember who this dancer was. Although the makeup is different, but Panji Tejo Laksono still poultice with the beautiful face of Rara Pujiwati who disappeared during the commotion in the Land Perdikan Lodaya first.

'Who invited this woman into my palace? Did Uncle Maheswara deliberately want to mess up this event?', Inner Panji Tejo Laksono while glancing towards Maheswara who seemed unsettled.

From the direction of the gamelan harvester, a shadow flashed quickly towards the Panji Tejo Laksono who was still sitting on the throne of the Duchy of Seloageng while making a sword.

Shhrreeettthhh !!!

This incident was so fast but Prabu Jayengrana who was vigilant, immediately blocked the movement of the shadow immediately until the sabetage of the sword of the shadow slashed through the stomach of Prabu Jayengrana which was already golden yellow.

Thhraaaanggggg !!!

The eyes of the shadow that is none other than Gorawangsa glared wide looking at it all. From his mouth seemed to sizzle furiously because he finally saw the greatness of canuragan science told by his teacher.

"So this is Ajian Tameng Waja?"
