In the Inn that Damar occupied all seemed happy with the results obtained. The five children were endlessly smiling. Not excessive, the article is indeed difficult to qualify in this early round. Padepokan Resik Jiwo became his one-on-one padepokan whose five students could qualify all towards the next round.
" Uncle teachers are proud of you" said Lingga and Mahesa simultaneously. With Wardani and Indira, they also congratulated the five children. Looks like a face that shines with what they got.
" But don't be happy just yet. Tomorrow there is still something heavier than this" Mahesa said.
The five children understood. They knew the rules in the second half. Prohibition Forest is where the second half will be held for tomorrow's match. Both Wardani, Lingga, and Mahesa told what was inside the Prohibition forest.
Poisonous plants, ferocious beasts, steep ravines, and mystical beasts. It's all there. Wardani gave each one bottle of antidote to the five children. Even though there is an antidote for poison, they still have to be careful.
" All right, tomorrow you're not looking for the token together but on your own. Here your independence and courage will be tested."
A long sentence uttered by Mahesa made them understand. Mahesa also explained again that they must find the token within 3 days. If they have not found it in the first heart, then they will spend the night in the forest of Prohibition. This is going to be a little risky. Therefore, they should get the token as soon as possible when the day is still bright.
Prohibition Forest is a type of protected forest that is so tight. Large tall trees dominate the forest so that even during the day the forest feels shady and dark because of the sunlight blocked by large, lush trees.
" Do you understand?"
" One question uncle master, how to distinguish poisonous plants and plants that are not? We're worried about eating poisonous plants."
Lingga and Mahesa smiled, the question of one of their students is really so contained and precise.
" The way to tell the difference is that poisonous plants usually have a striking color. It has a bright red or deep black fruit. Then usually it will remove tlutuh (sap) that is white like milk."
Mahesa's explanation can be easily accepted by the five children. Even so, tomorrow Wardani will provide some food for the five children.
" Uncle one more question. Tomorrow if we manage to get the token means we will advance to the final round. Is the teacher's uncle going to be there. On top of Wono Ageng hill."
" Yes Damar, all the teachers or preachers from all over the paddock will be there to witness. Even Duke Ranawijaya will be there."
" It's time for you to rest."
Wardani's orders are immediately followed by Damar and his friends. Tomorrow is a big day because they are going to hunt for tokens. Damar was impatient to enter the Prohibition Forest. He felt like something was pulling him there.

A new day arrived the sign of a new chapter arrived. This time Wardani and Indira iut delivered the five children to the door of the Prohibition forest. Wardani also did disguise but not with Indira. Of course Indira is not necessary because he is indeed no one who recognizes him.
" Okay, you guys be careful. Spreading in all directions. The chance to earn tokens will be greater if you spread."
" Prepared uncle teacher."
All the disciples who had escaped the first round were already standing before the forest door. They all took a swing to run immediately after the second half match began.
" The second round match is to earn tokens. For those who do not get tokens, you will be considered a failure. You've all been given two days to look for him. For those who have obtained, you must immediately go to Wono Ageng hill. Alright, in the count of three then you can go straight into the forest. One ... two ... three!!!"
The sound of the feet of all the students was so echoing. On the count of three they actually ran straight into the forest.
" May you succeed kakang" the indira prayer in the heart.
The deliverymen turned right to return to the inn. But apparently Indira did not want to return. She persuaded her aunt to take her for a walk first. It is a pity to have come all the way to this Duchy of Gendingan but not go anywhere.
" Aunty I heard in this duchy there's a very nice lake, can we go there."
" You're right miss, in our duchy there is indeed a beautiful lake. Just like a beautiful lady. If she's lucky, she'll find geese swimming around the lake."
Indira was shocked when a young man suddenly spoke. Not wanting to get excited, Indira also turned her head here and there to make sure that the young man was talking to him.
" Kisanak spoke to me?"
" Who else to go."
Wardani chuckles amusedly at the interaction of the two teenagers in front of her.
" Okay handsome young man. What is your name and where it comes from."
" Aaah, sorry I forgot to introduce myself. Introduce my name Kertawijaya, I'm the younger brother of Duke Ranawijaya."
Wardani was certainly surprised, he really did not expect Duke Ranawijaya to have a sister who was so young. But he didn't want to ask much. Wardani also approved Kertawijaya who wanted to take Indira to go see the lake in the duchy.
Throughout the journey Indira and Kertawijaya seemed to talk to each other. It turns out that both are equally easy to get along with new people. Many times Kertawijaya stole the view to Indira and it was not separated from Wardani's vision.
This girl is really pretty, is she also a student of a parapet? But judging from the appearance and the sword that was draped in his small waist confirmed that he was a martial artist.
Kertawijaya was busy with his own thoughts. Guess where the beautiful girl next to him came from.
" Sorry aunt, may I know where you're from?"
" Our Aaah comes from the Jiwo Resik store."
Kertawijaya was surprised. Last night he had just heard his leg and Yasapati's knight talking about the parapet. About the expertise of his students in controlling the emotions that are in their bodies. Kertawijaya increasingly curious just made it. The young man finally asked a lot of things until he found out that Indira was the daughter of the owner of Padepokan.
If Indira was amazed by the beauty of the lake belonging to the Duchy of Gendingan, Kertawijaya was amazed by the girl who was beside him. Indira is a girl who is so friendly and fun when invited to talk.
" Kakang Kertawijaya, the lake is very beautiful yes," said Indira.
" Yes very beautiful" replied Kertawijaya without turning his eyes on the girl.
