While Wulandari was still peering from the crevices of the undergrowth, Bengal Cokro descended from the horse's back, paying attention to the situation in this place.
“Wolf, look!” One of the young man's friends pointed at the 2 horses that were still moored in the back yard of the old hut reot. “There were two horses there, do you think whether they left the horses, or maybe there was someone else staying overnight in this place.”
Bengal Cokro then approached the hut of the reot, he found several bowls of shell of the fruit maje which still feels hot and smells of potions. There are also some straw neatly arranged as a bedding place.
“Fire butts are also still burning, they are not far from this place.” Bengal Cokro then came out of the hut, paying attention to the situation around him. “If they are enemies, I will kill them today. Don't expect him to escape my golden sword.”
Wulandari kept her mouth shut, it was true that it was Bengal Cokro, he thought. It was evident from the Golden Sword that the young man had just said.
If Bengal Cokro finds out where they're hiding. It was certain that bad things would happen to him. Wulandari restrained her body from moving in the slightest, not even daring to react when a snake flashed right nearby.
Sungsang Geni might be an exception, but he was the Demon Bats' Allied.
“Do you think Geni intentionally left his horse?”
“Don't be easy to guess, maybe this isn't theirs.” The Bengal of Cokro then took off the mines of the two horses, carrying with him. “We resume back on the way!”
It was a steed that would take Wulandari to the Allied Main Headquarters, if Bengal Cokro had already taken it, there would be no more mounts for the two of them.
Wulandari noticed the Sungsang Geni that she laid in the cracks of the large roots. The young man was still closed, whether sleeping or not the girl did not know for sure, but clearly the pale lips of the young man had already disappeared.
But at once the girl was surprised by the animal that suddenly came from behind the bush.
Wulandari nearly falls when the animal jumps right in front of her, between her and Sungsang Geni. When the girl searched for her sword, it was apparently lying near Sungsang Geni.
“Gerr..” The animal growled slowly, then sniffed its nose and then teased Sungsang Geni's body spoiled. Gerr....
Always disturbed by the black muzzle of the animal, Sungsang Geni awake also from his sleep. He opened his eyes heavily once, then immediately beamed realizing Commander Ireng had been staring at him with a glare.
“Ireng? Why are you here..?” Sungsang Geni said slowly.
“Gerr...gerr..” replied the Wolf.
“Not to be afraid.” Sungsang Geni turned his gaze towards Wulandari, “He is my friend.”
Even though it was said so, the panic on Wulandari's face was still clearly visible. Of course, anyone would be so surprised to find a wolf as big as a Bengal tiger suddenly coming in plain sight.
***
Only three hours after Sungsang Geni left Petarangan Headquarters to ask for a poison cure with Wulandari, hundreds of Surasena soldiers and dozens of Swordsman Union came to the headquarters.
The leader of the army was Bengal Cokro. The young man was told by Lakuning Banyu to pick up Sungsang Geni. The army he brought was about 300 people consisting of more than 100 horsemen and the others were pedestrians.
Bengal Cokro was so amazed by Bayangkara's success in conquering 2 small headquarters, and one Branch headquarters with only a few hundred people.
The arrival of Bengal Cokro did not necessarily without reason, at this time thousands of soldiers who promised Swarnadwipa had arrived at the Fort Refugee, now are making plans.
The great army will come with three accompaniments, the first accompaniment numbering three thousand men led by a Hulu Balang Swarnadwipa. The second and third arrivals are assisting the displacement of the people at the border of the Kerakatau Mountains.
But the situation broke out in that place when he learned Sungsang Geni was the son of King Saylendra, the ruler of Swarnadwipa land. So Lakuning Banyu immediately asked the Swordsman Union to immediately pick up Sungsang Geni.
Now that everyone in the Petarangan headquarters was recovering, there were 5 medical warriors treating all of them, but unfortunately the medical swordsmen were constrained with ingredients to concoct the antidote potion.
What Wulandari said was apparently true, the antidote to the poison could not be made haphazardly on the Java Plain, because the composition was not present in this place, he said, rather, no one knows what composition to create.

“So you followed us?” Sungsang Geni asked Commander Ireng. “ Very coincidental, with you here I can use your fur to warm my body.”
Commander Ireng glanced at Wulandari's clothes on Sungsang Geni's body, then glanced at the girl suspiciously. Yes, the animal's eyes narrowed looking at Wulandari.
“Oh, no.” Wulandari only realized that the animal might be thinking about something heinous right now. “I didn't steal a chance with that friend of yours!”
'Good.' Thought Commander Ireng, maybe. He immediately picked up the shirt with his mouth and placed it right in front of Wulandari, meaning that the girl wore it again. His clothes were not needed, as there was him with thick fur that would be the warmer of the young man.
Wulandari put on a sullen face, forced to put her clothes back on.
“Gerrr...Gerrr Commander Ireng growled again.
“Cannot be Ireng. Before I get the antidote I won't be back.” Sungsang Geni patted the wolf's muzzle a few times.
“Gerr...gerr.
“Of course all will be fine.” Sungsang Geni cleared his throat, then tried to stand up but his body was really weak, so as fast as lightning Wulandari helped the young man, making Commander Ireng even more annoyed to see him.
“Geni, because I saw Bengal Cokro looking for us, so I took you into the forest to hide, this would be a bad thing for me if I met him,” said Wulandari. “She has taken 2 horses of our own, now the journey becomes hampered. You haven't forgotten your goal of getting the antidote, have you?”
Sungsang Geni pensively for a long time, not thinking about Wulandari's question but thinking about the reason Bengal Cokro followed him. He believes there is a special reason for that.
It is also impossible if Bengal Cokro intends to capture Wulandari, when the poison is lodged in the body of his friends.
“Gerrr..” Commander Ireng said. “Gerr..”
“For now, I don't want to think of anything.” Sungsang Geni solidified his intentions. “I'll come with you to get the antidote.”
“Now you've been relieved of the load?” Wulandari. “Bengal Cokro does not come alone, although I have never met him directly, but he is the son of Darma Cokro, the leader of the Swordsman Union. We had studied the organization before the great war, the young man had above average abilities, the Golden Sword Technique, so you guys call it?”
“So at this time,” The girl continued her remarks, “I believe the Petarangan Headquarters is already guarded by the swordsman Union, Bengal Cokro is impossible to come without troops? Hemm...maybe the victory you get will be recognized as his victory.”
Sungsang Geni knows the direction the girl said, yes still a sneaky trick. “Stop thinking cunningly, you said you wanted to get to know me more? Eliminate the bad thoughts in your brain. Although maybe Bengal Cokro did recognize Petarangan as his victory, it was no big deal. Bayangkara do not need praise from anyone.”
"I understand..." The girl came back pouting.
