The Return of the Fire Dragon Swordsman
The God of Kahyangan
While the three beautiful women completed the resistance of Rudapaksi's men, the, their leader immediately darted towards Demung Gumbreg who had jumped down from the top of the coachman's carriage while carrying his magic club.
The great anger of Rudapaksi who felt himself insulted by Gumbreg, made the plontos-headed man immediately swing his three-pointed claws towards Gumbreg.
Shhrreeettthhh !!
Without much silverwork, Demung Gumbreg immediately held his magic club with both hands to fend off Rudapaksi's sharp claws.
Chhhrrrraaaaaaaye!!
Rudapaksi's attack was suppressed by Gumbreg's magic club. The thick-bodied man immediately threw a hard kick towards the distended stomach of the high officer of Panjalu.
Dhiieeeessshh!!
Rudapaksi could only gawk at the sight of his hard kick only making Demung Gumbreg's moody body retreat half a step. There was not the slightest sign that the man was in pain even he just grinned widely. Meanwhile, the high-ranking Panjalu soldier immediately twisted his body while swinging his magic club towards the head of the opponent.
Whhuuuuugggh !!
Rudapaksi twitched to the right side until the Gumbreg's bolt of magic truncheon only grabbed an empty air as long as the Rudapaksi's plontos head. Seeing his attack raw, Gumbreg turned his left palm and struck Rudapaksi's left rib defenseless.
Dhiieeeessshh says..
Oouugghhhhhh !!
Rudapaksi staggered backwards while holding his new-like ribs on a buffalo's back. The thick-bodied man immediately traced the ground violently and then darted quickly towards Demung Gumbreg while swinging his three-pointed hand claws towards the back of the high officer of the Panjalu warrior.
Shreeeeettttthhh!!
A cold wind rippled furiously following the movements of Rudapaksi's iron claws. Gumbreg who was late to realize that, could only shift the position of his body but the iron claw still hit his back.
Brreeeeettttth !!
Tear Gumbreg's shirt was hit by an iron claw belonging to Rudapaksi until the folds of Gumbreg's waist skin full of visible fat. But amazingly, the skin of the thick-bodied officer was not hurt at all.
"It feels a little amused kog huh? Did a mosquito just come up on my back?", Demung Gumbreg said with a big grin staring at the surprised Rudapaksi instead of playing looking at it all.
Indeed, Demung Gumbreg now uses the Buntet Conch Amulet which he got after Maheswara was caught by Senopati Gardana at the time after the coronation the other day. Her mother's uncle Panji Tejo Laksono was taken care of and is now one of his sikep (fetish ).
"You fuckin' bunting !!
Don't get cocky just because you have a talisman, you bastard! I am still not satisfied if I do not tear your mouth that stinks of the carcass!", cried Rudapaksi who immediately channeled his inner strength on the three-pointed iron claw in his right hand. From those iron claws, appeared black smoke smelling unpleasant and a dim yellow light. Apparently Rudapaksi channeled his ultimate science, Ajian Splitting Mountain, on the iron claw in his right hand.
Seeing that the opponent had prepared with his mainstay magic, Demung Gumbreg did not want to lose. Hurriedly he exerted all his energy in his magic club until a thick black light appeared air-conditioned on the magic club. This is Ajian Lintang Wengi who has been the mainstay of the high-ranking officer of Panjalu soldiers to serve his country.
After the science of kanuragan finished in rapal, Rudapaksi immediately darted towards Demung Gumbreg while swinging the iron claw on his right hand that was already dim yellow towards the man who was fat.
"Campus you, Buffalo bunting!!!"
Demung Gumbreg immediately swung his magic club in pitch black to meet Rudapaksi's attack.
Whhhuuugggh..
Bllaammmmmmm!!
Loud explosions were heard when the two weapons in the final study collided. Gumbreg fell rolling on the ground as a result of the shock wave created by the loud explosion. Although his chest was slightly tight and there was blood flowing out from the corner of his lips, the tall officer of the thick-bodied Panjalu warrior immediately rose up.
The Rudapaksi also fared worse. The body of the plontos-headed man was slammed far back and dragged nearly 5 spears away. His stocky body only stopped after hitting a large rock on a cliff which resulted in a rock the size of a human head falling on his plontos head. He died with his head crushed by a rock.
One of Rudapaksi's men who fought against Panji Tejo Laksono immediately jumped into a small ravine not far from the place of battle when he saw the leader killed. He managed to escape death.
Panji Tejo Laksono stood staring at the corpses of Rudapaksi's men who were lying there. Demung Gumbreg, Gayatri, Luh Jingga, Dyah Kirana and Tumenggung Ludaka immediately approached the ruler of the Duchy of Seloageng.
"What are we doing with this corpse, Ndoro Panji?", asked Tumenggung Ludaka as he stared at the corpse that was scattered indeterminate in that direction.
"Just let them eat the beasts that are in this place, Uncle. That is a reward worth the deeds of those who like to spread anger on the face of the earth.
Look, dusk is beginning to fall on the western horizon. We should look for a place to stay in the village ahead of it", Panji Tejo Laksono pointed to a large stone monument carved in Old Javanese letters not far from where they were.
The four people immediately nodded in understanding. The five of them immediately boarded their respective vehicles and continued their journey towards Wanua Pucung. After passing the Wanua boundary monument, the group continued to move forward. In front of a house located at the very end, a middle-aged man was turning on the jolt of a castor oil lamp. Ludaka's hammer immediately jumped down from his horse and approached the old man.
We're a group of traders who stayed on the road. In this Wanua is there a place to stay that is rented?", asked Tumenggung Ludaka politely. The old man momentarily stared at the group of Panji Tejo Laksono before speaking.
"In this place there is no lodging, Kisanak. If you want to stay overnight, you should go to the Jagabaya house only. The place is spacious, enough to accommodate all of you. If at home Ki Lurah can not, because there is a celebration there", replied the old man immediately.
"Where's Ki Jagabaya's house, Kisanak?".
"You guys are straight. After arriving at the big house that has sapodilla tree, it is the house of Ki Jagabaya Wanua Pucung this", said the old man while pointing to the east. After thanking the old man, Tumenggung Ludaka immediately jumped on his horse and the journey resumed.
Arriving at the house in question, the group of Panji Tejo Laksono stopped the pace of their vehicles. A thick mustache man was lowering a knee cage from the portico of his residence when Panji Gayatri was accompanied by Luh Jingga and Dyah Kirana as well as Panji Tejo Laksono and Tumenggung Ludaka walk near the big house. The thick-bodied man immediately stopped his activities and stared at the group.
"Excuse Kisanak. Is this really the Wanua Pucung Constable's house?", asked Gayatri immediately.
"True Nisanak, I'm Jababaya Kusumo.. Looks like you're not here. What business are you here for?", the thick-bodied man immediately asked firmly.
"We are a traveling merchant group, exploring the earth Jawadwipa this to trade. My name is Nyi Tantri, Ki Jagabaya Kusumo. It just so happened that we passed this place and could not continue the journey. Said the old man whose house was at the end of the road, we could spend the night in this house.
If allowed, we want to rent Ki Jagabaya place to rest. Is it possible, Ki Jagabaya?", added Gayatri politely. He began using a pseudonym that had been previously determined. Gayatri became Nyi Tantri, Luh Jingga became Rara Jingga, Dyah Kirana continued to use her real name, Gumbreg became Ki Gudel, and Tumenggung Ludaka disguised as Ki Renggo.
"Of course, Nyi Tantri. As a state servant, of course, I must give everything that the people of Hehehehe need..
Per night for one person is 2 pieces of silver. So for last night, just give 10 pieces of silver. If you add dinner, then add one more piece of silver per person Nyi.", a wide smile was engraved on the face of the thick-bodied man wearing a headband of black cloth.
Without waiting for long, Nyi Tantri immediately took out a small bag of silver pieces containing about 20 pieces of silver from under her clothes. Then he quickly threw it towards Ki Jagabaya Kusumo immediately. Deft hand Ki Jagabaya Kusumo caught a silver puck throw from Nyi Tantri. The man immediately smiled widely when he felt the weight of the silver bag.
"There were twenty pieces of silver in that cloth bag, Ki Jagabaya. Give us some good food tonight.
Uncle Renggo, Kakang Tejo and Uncle Gudel, for tonight we do not need to move our merchandise into the house. I ask you to take turns guarding our horse carriage", after throwing the silver kepeng pouch, Nyi Tantri immediately turned towards the three men behind her.
"We understand Ndoro", said the three compact. The disguise they did was absolutely perfect.
Dusk was quickly replaced by night. The stars in the dark sky become small twinkling lights accompanying the night queen who is almost perfectly round.
Panji Tejo Laksono took off his bamboo stampings after Gumbreg picked up a blanket made of thick rags and Tumenggung Ludaka started a fire on dry twigs arranged in such a way near their horse-drawn carriage.
The sight was caught red-handed by the eyes of a village girl carrying a tray filled with dinner for them. The girl's eyes widened after seeing the good looks of Panji Tejo Laksono. Almost the tray containing roasted chicken fell if Gumbreg did not immediately snatch his hand.
"Hey, where did you put your eyes? Be careful when the road. If this spills, I might starve tonight. Huh this reckless of you", Demung Gumbreg scolded immediately.
"Sorry Ki Gudel. A moment of his nasi a-I get it", said the servant girl who is a nurse or caregiver at the residence Ki Jagabaya Kusumo family immediately.
"Huh hurry up and get there. My stomach started to rumble this. Do not forget to get a jug of rice wine to warm the body. This place is so cold" Gumbreg added. The girl just nodded in understanding and rushed towards the inside of the house Ki Jagabaya Kusumo.
From inside the house, because she was still nervous due to the incident, the servant girl named Wening almost hit the body of a beautiful woman who was about 2 and a half decades old. She is the third wife of Ki Jagabaya Kusumo from the Duchy of Singhapura named Rara Lestari. The beautiful woman was immediately upset with Wening's actions.
"You're really careless huh Ning.. Did you just see a ghost until your attitude was strange like this?", hardik Rara Lestari while glaring at the frightened Wening.
"Ndoro Putri. Sorry I'm really stupid. But I did not see a ghost but saw a god descending from the kahyangan in the courtyard of this house", Wening replied immediately.
"You're not making this up, Wening. How could there be a god like you said that in this place?", Rara Lestari was getting annoyed at feeling Wening was trying to trick her into avoiding her mistake. Without waiting for the approval of the beautiful woman, Wening immediately shook Rara Lestari's hand towards the door to the side of the residence Ki Jagabaya Kusumo who could see directly to the side yard of the house where Panji Tejo Laksono and his friends lit a bonfire. Wening's hand immediately pointed towards the Panji Tejo Laksono who was busy flipping through the young corn on the fireplace.
"Now look at her Ndoro Princess".
Rara Lestari's eyes immediately glared wide as she clearly saw the figure of the handsome man who was in the courtyard. His heart was racing because it was only the first time he had seen such a handsome man. Seeing Rara Lestari's face flushed red, Wening immediately continued to talk.
"Not really what I said, Ndoro Putri?".
"True Wening. He must be a god who came down from the shadow. It is only fitting that from now on he did not take off his bamboo caping, it turned out to cover that handsome face.
Wening, quickly prepare some food for those outside. I'll make my makeup look a little. We'll both be delivering food for that handsome guy. Mumpung Kakang Jagabaya Kusumo is at the house of Ki Lurah Wanua Pucung, this is a good opportunity to approach him", finished saying so, Rara Lestari immediately rushed towards her bedroom and briefly then she was nowhere to be seen after the bedroom door closed.
"Huuuu...
Turn to look clear, his eyes immediately green. The base of tledek marks, always itching if there is a handsome man", Maki Wening as she throws her lips towards the bedroom of Rara Lestari. But the village girl also immediately headed towards the kitchen of the family residence Ki Jagabaya Kusumo to prepare dinner for Panji Tejo Laksono and two friends.
A pair of beautiful eyes peeked at the behavior of the two women from behind the door of his bedroom room. The beautiful woman in white clothes immediately let out a cold snort while muttering slowly,
"Basasil women itch..."
