#46. The Black Flow. III
Laksminingrum suddenly heard a very loud roar from Aji Dharma. As soon as he approached he found no one there. After that, the voice of Aji Dharma echoed throughout the cave. His voice was truly pitiful, as if he was really asking for help.
Laksminingrum was completely confused. He just yells while calling Aji Dharma. He can't control himself for that. The voice of Aji Dharma is getting louder and sadder.
"It's all just their game" the demon whispered.
"I know, but I really can't help myself. I'm really freaking out right now. What if they've done something to him?" Ask Laksminingrum.
"Yet. I'm sure it is. The rituals performed by them can only be done during the full moon so that he can get the perfect power. And you know for yourself, isn't it still noon?"

"If you want strength, I'll guide you. It's just that there's a price to pay. Tomorrow at dusk meet me in the cave to the east of your village when you are ready," a man came to give way to Galuh who felt vengeance to the village chief's son .
The man said in his dream Galuh. He looks very authoritative even though the clothes used are only white cloth like a pandita . His face also looks quite handsome at his age which may not be young anymore.
He actually did not believe it, but somehow the offer felt very attractive. It's just that he was again worried by the man who said that there was a price to be paid while he had no money. Then with what should he pay the power that will be his?

"Welcome to the palace of the duchy of Mangkualam gentlemen. Thank you for visiting my palace gentlemen," at the dean of the palace gate, Duke Kencana Wulan welcomed the arrival of the delinquent-looking warriors with a smile along with his beautiful empress. For the first time in his life, Duke Kencana Wulan welcomed guests directly in front of the gate. They were special guests invited by the Duke to be allies so that his steps in seizing Majasari's power could be successful.
They are not all random people. The five warriors who came were famous as high-ranking mercenaries who were famous with the names of the five demons from the south. Their work in succeeding the rebellion was already well known. It was for this reason that the Duke invited them. To be a reliable ally.
Although the soldiers also welcomed, they seemed unhappy with the presence of the five warriors. They all knew the Duke's plan. Most of the soldiers actually did not want to participate in the Duke's plan, but because they were threatened to be killed their families did not speak out.
Soon a war unwanted by them will occur and afterwards they will be branded as rebels. Their lives could not calm down until the king acted decisively. Even so, for the safety of each family they will be willing to do anything .
"Please enter gentlemen, a special banquet will be served soon," the Duke immediately invited them inside. They then had a conversation there. The conversation is not far from around the tactics they will use to pound the Majasari palace. Including all the possibilities they would use if their plan failed.
