The Treaty of Invisibility

The Treaty of Invisibility
GRUDGE BURNING #2


The old man immediately buried the body of Mbah Utung who was experiencing rot with disgust until several times he had to vomit even though he had withstood his nausea as hard as he could. Even though his nose has been covered in layers of cloth still the stench that comes out of the mangled mangrove of the mangrove of the mangrove of the Utung can still be smelled.


After wrapping it with pandan mats in the hutkan room, then the Old Man dragged the body of Mbah Utung out of the hutkan with difficulty. Accompanied by the sound of dozens of monkeys in the hutkan yard squeaking each other hard against each other, the old man came out of the hut by dragging the bundle of bodies. The monkeys lined up behind the old man and followed him towards the burrow.


The old man dragged her to the hole that had been dug before behind the hutkan to bury her brother's body without any proper funeral procession and no flower petals even as the tombstone was only given a sign with a branching tree branch. He buried it like he buried a cat. After the funeral was completed or rather buried the carcass is finished, then the old man sat down on the side of the grave.


"I promise Sisang, will avenge the death of kakang. I know my brother died fighting someone because I saw a blood splatter on that wall. I will demand revenge! Life must be paid for with life!" he said with a bursting rage.


The day is approaching dusk, the atmosphere around the hutkan already looks dark. The cottage that had previously been cleaned by mopping it using leaves from the trees around it and washed cleanly overflowing it with water, has now dried up. And there was no longer a stinging stench like the first time he had entered.


The old man lit some candles he collected earlier from the remains of the Mbah Utung ritual scattered on the floor. The weather was slightly warmed by the bright flames of the candle before him. Then the old man sat cross-legged in the middle of the hutkan room. He intends to find out by exerting the knowledge he has.


The old man seemed to close his eyes, his forehead furrowed deeply as if he was concentrating.Both his hands were raised high, his mouth was chattering midway and then a moment later his body trembled along with a heavy sound coming out of his mouth.


"Rear.. adahrrrr.... hadiiiirrrr... come, brother... I call you!" Shouts loudly.


A moment of silence after the old man uttered the phrase summoning spirit mbah Utung. But it did not last long, suddenly the sound of a loud whizzing wind sounded above the hut. The sounds of swiping twigs and leaves from the trees around the hutkan cause horror that shakes the fur of the nudge. Then came the sound of the roof as trampled and then followed boisterous monkey tweets in large numbers. Soon a thick smoke burst in from the top. The smoke appeared through the roof of the cottage down in front of the old man who was still cross-legged with his eyes closed . At first the smoke was thin over time the smoke thickened and then formed the silhouette of a human body figure.


Now, the smoke had formed a single body wearing the same black combatant suit as the old man. His head was wrapped around a brown batik cloth that tied his long, tangled white hair to a shoulder. His face is almost similar to the face of the old man, only the difference looks older than the age of the old man.


"Suto my sister.." the sound of a figure formed from the smoke with a heavy voice.


"Rear...why can a leg be like this?!" Asked the old man who was called by the name of Suto.


"The back died as a result of the actions of two Suto people," answered the figure of smoke that is none other than the incarnation of Mbah Utung.


"Who are they brothers?!" Suto asked with clenched hands holding back his rustling jaws.


"One of the students from Kiyai Bapu Jagat and the second is the one who makes trouble named Kosim," replied Mbah Utung.


"Where are they?" suto asked again furiously.


Jelmaan Mbah Utung tells everything from the beginning since Kosim came to propose to serve as a servant of the Monkey Demon until the event of his fight with Abah Dul. Everything was told in full with incitement sentences that made Ki Suto blush red his face with the explosive anger in his chest.


"My back promises to demand revenge!" ki Suto exclaimed as he brandished his hand with his index finger pointing up.


Meanwhile outside the hutkan on a large branch there are a pair of eyes that had been watching the hutkan earlier. Highlight his eyes could pierce through the wall and see two twin-like figures sitting face to face in the hut. The two eyes that were burning red belonged to a very thick gray-haired figure wrapped all over his body. The long fangs in his mouth were clearly visible when the creature grinned looking and listening to the chatter of two figures inside the hutkan. Along with the incarnation of Mbah Utung disappeared, the figure on the tree immediately shot up and disappeared like a flash of light mingled between the points of starlight in the sky.

Mahmud's House, the,


The 9th night after Kosim died.


After the Isya prayer, Mahmud sat alone in the living room. He felt how lonely he was after Kosim died. Usually in the living room in the last month, warm conversations he felt along with his friends, Abah Dul and Mang Ali coupled with Kosim. Mahmud also misses their laughter. Although actually in a month the atmosphere is full of insight and often have to struggle with dealing with supernatural beings but the atmosphere of togetherness always creates a changing sensation every night.


Mahmud sucked his clove deeply and then exhaled slowly trying to enjoy the cigarette smoke he sucked. His shadow of Kosim is still very much in his memory. Mahmud's face was suddenly grim but full of regret, when he remembered being angry with Kosim for his advice not to accept the job.


"Had Kosim listened to the ban he might still be alive" he murmured regretfully.


While his wishful thinking was still imagining about Kosim, suddenly there was a sound of a bang on the roof of the house accompanied by vibrations along with the sound.


Buuumm!


"Astagfirefull!" peekik Mahmud to jump.


Shortly thereafter the Goddess appeared into the living room followed by Arin with a face of astonishment full of big question marks. Arin instantly gripped tightly onto the Goddess's arm with a face of fear.


"Is there a Mas?!" ask Goddess.


"Mas doesn't know Wi either" Mahmud replied.


"Yes, you guys just entered the room together in Arin's room. Come, come..," said Mahmud then herded Arin and Dewi into the room.


Mahmud then stepped out of the house. He was standing in the front yard looking up at the precariousness of his house. But he found nothing up there. Mahmud forgets that his house is still protected by the aura of a shield as a protector created by Gus Aaron some time ago. So he did not realize that the sound of the bang was caused by the existence of a great power energy that collided.
