Jaga Saksena teaches the procedure of prayer to Begawan Teja Surendra and Patih Sepuh Labda Lawana. Fortunately, the teacher everywhere brought his stationery so as to facilitate the teaching process.
Jaga Saksena is not careless made amazed by the teacher who is able to write well even though only assisted by the dim moonlight.
Until when the chicken crowed, keep Saksena saying goodbye to prayer. Praying a lot, because due to fighting he missed some prayer time.
After praying,
"Kid Keep, why do you pray so much? Shouldn't there only be five times and in time each as you taught?"
"Look, Begawan. In very urgent circumstances such as in the fight between life and death, prayers can be abandoned. But it must be done if it has the chance."
"Oh ... It means you left since dhuhur!"
"True, I never thought at this age you were so limpid, Begawan!" praise Jaga Saksena.
"Because of his sophistication, Begawan Teja Surendra was repeatedly asked to be an adviser to the King, Den Jaga. But he always refused," said Patih Sepuh Labda Lawana reinforce Jaga Saksena's praise to the begawan.
"Rosulululloh ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ 'The best of men is what benefits other men."
Take care of Saksena like directing Begawan Teja Surendra to accept the request of King Basukamba because his intelligence will benefit many people.
"Aknlan I considered," briefly Begawan understood the words Jaga Saksena.
"I bear witness to your words, my friend Begawan Teja Surendra!" patih Sepuh Labda Lawana said that he did not waste the opportunity. Because all this time Begawan Teja Surendra always refused outright, never said he would consider it.

Dawn began to spurt in the eastern horizon, Jaga Saksena taught morning prayers in congregation with himself to be a muezzin as well as a priest.
Hearing Jaga Saksena reciting the sacred verses, Begawan Teja Surendra and Patih Sepuh Labda Lawana dissolved in the beautiful reading of the young man.
After praying.
"Sonak Jaga, the reading you taught turns out when read with such a timeless touch to my heart. Can you teach me the meaning of all these words?"
"Of course, Begawan. Bismillahi, by the name of Alloh ...."
Jaga began to dictate the meanings of the sentences read in the prayer ritual, while the begawan deftly wrote them.
Begawan Teja Surendra shows himself a science-hungry old man.
They continued in such a state, until when someone came from the east. He seemed to be running very fast.
"Host ... Host ...!"
"Senopathy Sundul Mega!"
The man who came was indeed Senopati Sundul Mega.
After taking a deep breath, Senopati Sundul Mega asked the patih.
"Train Sepuh, what's the situation?"
Senopati Sundul Mega hesitated to ask Jaga Saksena because he saw the young man only nodded respectfully to him and was again busy dictating something to Begawan Teja Surendra.
The scenery for Senopati is very rare. Senopati Sundul Mega knows exactly the cleverness and intellect of Begawan Teja Surendra, but this time the begawan is taking notes from a young man.
So Senopati Sundul Mega did not dare to disturb the two.
"It's under full control, Senopati. Sundara Watu has been killed at the hands of Den Jaga with the help of Begawan Teja Surendra." Patih Sepuh Labda Lawana is indeed a humble person, he only mentions Jaga Saksena and Begawan Teja Surendra even though because he is also Sundara Watu can be defeated.
"Is there a big explosion in the sky last night?"
Senopati Sundul Mega asked back, because before leaving he had time to look for clues on people where to look for Jaga Saksena.
From some people, Senopati Sundul Mega heard, last night there was a super dasyat explosion occurred in the western sky.
On this news Senopati Sundul Mega looking for Jaga Saksena westward through the mountains Bumati.
"Yes, Senopati!" brief answer Patih Sepuh Labda Lawana.
"I went to see the teacher. But my teacher didn't know Sundara Watu's weakness, when I returned the King ordered me to find Den Jaga, make sure everything was okay."
"Patih Sepuh Labda Lawana" said.
Previously, when ordered by King Basukamba to find Sundara Watu's weakness, Senopati Sundul Mega went to his teacher's residence by exerting his swift running.
Raja Basukamba also ordered Senopati Sundul Mega to look for the existence of Jaga Saksena.
King Basukamba himself did not know if Patih Sepuh Labda Lawana had returned and brought Sundara Watu's weakness. Because Patih Sepuh Labda Lawana at the insistence of Begawan Teja Surendra went straight to the fight place in order to save time. And true, if Patih Sepuh Labda Lawana and Begawan Teja Surendra are a little late, maybe Sundara Watu they can not beat.

Dictating the meaning of the reading in the finished prayer ritual, Patih Sepuh Labda Lawana invites Jaga Saksena and Begawan Teja Surendra to meet King Basukamba.
Their arrival was also greeted by thousands of people who were carrying around. Compact residents repaired the city walls, removed fallen trees and buried scattered corpses as well as collected scattered weapons.
Keep Saksena hailed as a hero. His name is now known by all residents of the Kingdom of Saindara Gumilang.
Among the crowd, stood a burly man bare-chested. He glanced at the eyes to see that what the citizens were calling for was someone who reminded him of the events seven years ago.
"In-him?!" stutter the man before making sure what the eyes see is not wrong then turn over and immediately go to face his employer.
***
Arriving at the gate of the palace, no one welcomed Jaga Saksena and her small entourage except Sungsang Gumilang and Princess Andara Anesha Sari as well as the circle soldiers of the palace.
Apparently King Basukamba was leading a special force with Tumenggung Wiryateja to wipe out the rebels after early morning reports that the rakyans were killed.
Jaga Saksena and the other three were directed into the palace to clean themselves and awaited at the banquet place.
Receiving the encouraging news that Sundara Watu had been killed, Princess Anesha Sari ordered one of the palace's circle soldiers to tell King Basukamba and informed him that Jaga Saksena had returned.
*
Moments later, in the large banquet hall.
Sruputtt!
With a slight roughness, Sungsang scooped up the bitter tea before him. To eat he had to wait to be welcome when all the invitations had come. As for now, it is only her and Princess Anesha Sari who have been sitting in their respective chairs.
'Where has Senopati Ragnala Raksa been, why hasn't the shadow of his nose been!?' batin Sungsang's. His face and gestures seemed restless because until this afternoon Sungsang had not received a thousand gold pieces gift from the Senopati Ragnala Raksa.
Just then, Anesha Sari suddenly said,
"Calm down, it's possible that Senopati Ragnala went to see his master at the eastern end of Jawadwipa."
"What?!"
Sungsang almost fell down with the chair he was sitting in. How not, if really Senopati Ragnala Raksa go there, with a run as fast as the soldiers will take a few days.
'That senopati one block!' maki Sungsang in heart. 'Find out the weakness of the enemy who is fighting to that extent. If the enemy cannot be defeated, by the time he returns we will have become a charlatan!'
Seeing the surprise of people until almost strayed, Anesha Sari just smiled showing her rows of teeth that add to the beauty of the face.
Anesha Sari knew the red swordsman who did not want to mention his name was waiting for Ragnala Raksa, because he had asked several times the whereabouts of the senopati to ask for the promised gift.
Before long, members of the king's family entered the banquet hall with Empress Mahiswari.
For a while Sungsang had to be silent in his seat until he forgot to pay his respects. Sungsang's eyes could not blink seeing the beauty of some of Anesha Sari's sisters.
This was indeed a large banquet to celebrate the victory of the war so that all the members of the king's family were invited. Not only the empress and her daughter's son, but also the three concubines and their daughter's sons and daughters-in-law and the people who contributed to yesterday's war.
When last night King Basukamba ordered the courtiers to hold a large banquet, the king had not received any reports of the murder of the rakyans. So it can be said, this meal is not well planned or disturbed by the killing of the rakyans.
When the king's families had sat in their respective places, Sungsang still looked at a concubine's daughter. Her hair was neatly tied from top to bottom, as she smiled there were dimples decorating her cheeks. His thick long eyebrows with wide eyes made Sungsang unwilling to stop staring at him.
"Who is that red-clothed urgency, why is he disrespecting us?! And his gaze was disgusting!" crown Prince Kama Kumara whispers to his younger brother, Tamawijaya.
"He was one of the heroes of yesterday's war. He is the one who will receive the gift from Senopati Ragnala Raksa as well as the personal guard Jaga Saksena."
"What?! That dalit has a personal guard?!" kama Kumara was in disbelief.
"That is what I heard from Aswangga. You know Aswangga never lies, right?!" tamawijaya Reply.
Kama Kumara clenched her hands tightly. If he had trained hard, he would have become a crown prince and a warrior without a match so that he could join the war as his sister who continued to receive praise from Byungda Empress Mahiswari. Not only that, 'And I should be able to kick Jaga Saksena from the side of Anesha Sari!'
Kama Kumara could not accept if Anesha Sari was married by a commoner. In her mind and taste, a princess should be married to a prince of a kingdom.
Even Kama Kumara still disagreed despite having just been told to the king's family that Jaga Saksena managed to kill Sundara Watu, a suspected brainchild of rebellion and human assault of the Tribe of the Prophethood Valley.
'If I am the king, take care of Saksena enough given a gift of gold pieces and some female slaves!'
