The atmosphere became a little tense due to the presence of Wururia, everyone said they would kill the man cruelly. Only, Lakuning Banyu and three of his advisors who still looked calm even though they could not hide the faces of the four people were both holding back anger.
“Stop!” said Lakuning Banyu, instantly everyone stopped fighting over the man's death. “There are a lot of things that actually bog my mind, of course the reason you formed the Devil Bats didn't want me to know, your betrayal is a past story. But now, all I want to know is about our enemy, the Demon Bats. Tell me everything you know?”
“If you will spare my life, I will give you all the information about the Demon Bats.”
“What right do you specify?” Mahesa growled, holding back anger. If at that time Wururia was found by him, and not Sungsang Geni it was clear that this man would come to Surasena with a disembodied head. That's for sure.
"Rakryan Rangga Mahesa.” said Darma Cokro tried to calm the hard-bodied man. “Let us with the decision of the noble Lakuning Banyu.”
Mahesa was obviously very upset, but at the moment she could do nothing but sit back in her chair. The man's face turned towards Bengal Cokro, it seemed that the young man was also holding back anger at this moment.
“I agree..” said Lakuning Banyu. “I'll spare your life, but in return you give us all the information we need.”
“Then I agree.”
Prabu Wururia explained everything very carefully and at length, even seemed convoluted to make everyone in this place resist the annoyance not a pustule. Why not just the point, they thought.
But other things with Lakuning Banyu, Sungsang Geni and three old elders aka king's advisors. They listened to everything carefully, until everyone asked if they did not get tired of hearing Wururia's hoarse voice?
“So so..” Sungsang Geni smiled slightly, cutting out the sentence that came out of Wururia's mouth. “5 The Kingdom cannot withstand the Toxic Mask, you are completely betrayed. Now I can guess from your story, two of your friends who escaped must have died.”
“I also agree with Mahapatih Sungsang Geni,” said Lakuning Banyu. “Lucky once you meet Mahapatih, otherwise I'm sure you're already in the afterlife at this time.”
Mahapathatist? Sungsang Geni tightly closed his ears when he heard that word. Is there anyone in this place who can just call his name?
I don't know what Wururia should be doing right now? should he be thankful that Sungsang Geni saved his life, yes despite having to suffer a few blows right on his face, breaking his nose? Or else this is another disaster. No, this is better than being caught by the Devil Bats thought Prabu Wururia.
“We all agreed to go from there, when saw how the attitude of the Toxic Mask that began to get out of control.”
“Uncontrolled?” ask Lakuning Banyu.
“True, he is getting wild and his father, Wingkar can not manage himself anymore.”
“I've expected..” Sungsang Geni scratched his head. “The body of the Toxic Mask is a container, darkness intends to be born into this world by entering his body.”

In another room, after the meeting was over the decision would not sentence Wururia to death but instead she would be in a holding cell for an undetermined time. Perhaps there is a distinct advantage in letting the person live.
“Stop Uncle Master..” Sungsang Geni prevented Sabdo Jagat from bending his body to pay his respects. “Where are my procedures, if you let yourself bow respectfully.”
Sabdo Jagat fell silent with his small smile. Not changed the man thought. Sungsang Geni remained as before, a young man with a simple play and respect for everyone who had an older age than him.
“How is Cempaka Ayu?” asked Sabdo Jagat, he was about to speak in the meeting, but there was no chance to speak. Sungsang Geni clearly knew the intention of Sabdo Jagat's heart, so tonight he visited his room.
“She is very good uncle, just..” Sungsang Geni let out a heavy sigh, his gaze slightly faint with a face of guilt. “Toxic Mask managed to take half the power of Moon Goddess.”
Hearing that Sabdo Jagat instead smiled happily, it did not matter to him that the Moon Goddess had been overpowered by the Toxic Mask, but one thing that the man did not know, if the Moon Goddess had been absorbed entirely, it would have been, then Cempaka Ayu will obviously die.
“I left her somewhere, Cempaka Ayu will be fine there. Commander Ireng and also Wulandari with himself.”
“Wulandari?” asked Sabdo Jagat, raised his eyebrows because he had never heard of a girl named Wulandari in Surasena.
“Yes, she is the girl who managed to save the life of Cempaka Ayu,” Sungsang Geni replied.
Sabdo Jagat was about to ask a lot about the girl who was said to have saved Cempaka Ayu, but the intention was undone. For him right now, hearing that Cempaka Ayu was fine was more than enough. Regarding Wulandari, it may be asked directly with Cempaka Ayu.
“Toxic Mask starts to move just maybe.” said Sabdo Jagat looking to the eastern horizon, where the sky from there the last few days is always dark cloudy, as if the sun is reluctant to shine on the place.
“Ya.. I'm sure he started moving forward.” Sungsang Geni noticed the purple flashes from the black clouds in the eastern horizon. “We may face the greatest war in the history of civilization in the land of Java. No other option, of course we will not retreat.”
Sabdo Jagat nodded slowly, he grasped the mountain-destroying stick with a trembling hand. There was a mess in the man's mind, he thought that he had not fully mastered the mountain-destroying staff, because his inner power was not large enough. This is common for warriors, the inner power that is not comparable to the heirloom he has makes the weapon does not work optimally.
“Uncle Master, will you teach me how to gather natural energy?”
Sabdo Jagat jolted not understanding, obviously he never knew about other energies other than inner power. Natural energy is something that is not in the Snake Valley.
“I don't understand what you mean, Geni,” said Sabdo Jagat a little surprised. “What is meant by natural energy.”
Sungsang Geni smiled faintly, clearly aware that perhaps other than himself no man knew about how to gather such an enormous natural energy.
“Natural energy is the energy that is around us, we can borrow that power so that it can be used for a better purpose.”
Sabdo Jagat was silent for a moment. “I'm not sure I can learn it, because I'm not a talented person like you.”
“We will learn gradually, if uncle succeed then maybe the mountain crushing stick can be used with the best.” Sungsang Geni gave off an extremely calm aura from his left palm, an energy coming out from there was a clear green color. It moves smooth like smoke but has an incredible density. “I'm sure Uncle Master can master it.”
