"Is your back feeling better now?" Dewi Ratih who saw Erlangga was walking out said . He could not hide his joy.
"This is all thanks to the Great God" Erlangga replied.
"Where is our teacher now?" He then asked the whereabouts of Nyi Arum Sari.
"She said she wanted to go take a shower . What's up?"
"I want to practice soon. It's been a long time since I've been a burden. I want to be stronger than ever."
"But the leg just recovered, I think it's better for the leg to rest."
"I have been resting for a long time. I don't want to rest any longer. If I can't get stronger I just become a burden to others."
"No one feels that the legs are a burden," Dewi Ratih tried to comfort Erlangga. He saw a deep despair as Erlangga said.
"I consider myself a burden."

"Please investigate what happened in the Duchy of Boyokerto. I heard from a prince from Prabakerta that there was a loan shark working with Duke Kencana Wulan. Remember, do not let this mission I give known to others for the sake of a truth," King Wanapati finally sent a soldier to follow up on Aji Dharma's report.
"Sendiko dawuh Gusti. . The servant will carry out the duty entrusted to the servant as best as possible," with a respectful attitude, the soldier said.
"If you do a good job, I will give you a higher position," so that the soldier is more excited, before carrying out his duties, King Wanapati gave a sweet-sounding lure.
"How's kanda?"
"I sent a soldier recommended by Senopati. We cannot send the usual password Telik because it will be easy to get caught. Especially in his own neighborhood. Duke Kencana Wulan already knows all the passwords we have."
"I think that's a good idea. But I don't know why I'm hesitating about the success of his mission."
"I've promised him a higher position. I think he'll try hard. I know it's a little bit long-winded, but the resulting risk will be smaller."
"I understand what this kanda means. Let's hope we find the bright spot."

Arya Bayu sat on the throne of the kingdom of Prabakerta with his gallant. With his current position, he was trying to advance the kingdom well. He simply disliked the previous king, not the land of Prabakerta. After all, Prabakerta was his homeland as well.
He removed many officials who looked to have a luxurious lifestyle. The tax is also now light. He hoped that the citizens who left during the chaos could return to their homes .
On the throne, after many meetings, Arya Bayu thought of Dewi Ratih whom he once cared about when he wanted to take over the palace the other day. His face when angry for some reason continues and continues to ring. He can't even forget it.
He wanted to talk to her even once. He wanted to know his name, at that time he almost asked just because of the prestige he did not do so. Now, it felt like there was a bit of regret within him. Want to go to where Dewi Ratih is, but he does not know where to go.
One day, he hopes the Great God will reunite with Dewi Ratih. When the time comes, he will correct his shy attitude. Although the possibility is small, as long as there is still a possibility there is no harm in hoping.
