Pendekar Batari Mahadewi: The Journey to Find Your Self
Episode 123 Negri Madapala Currency
Batari Mahadevi and Nala walk through the city gate of Piriparara. Just as the two village elders said they met, the gate guard soldiers did not let Batari Mahadevi and Nala enter the city freely. Both should be questioned first.
“We get this from the village elders we met.” Batari Mahadewi said that he had a small metal plate the size of a thumb that had beautiful carvings on its surface.
“Oh, then, our ladies and gentlemen accept. Sorry, but we're just following orders. Every foreigner who comes in this country will be treated in the same way” said the guard soldier kindly. The shape of his head like a quail egg makes his smile seem like a ghost grin in the world of one moon, the world where Nala and Batari Mahadewi came from.
“Thanks a lot uncle. Can we ask you something?” ask Batari Mahadevi.
“Please miss.” Answer the guard soldiers.
“Where should we go to meet someone who is considered a great teacher in this city?” ask Batari Mahadevi.
“See in that direction, miss. There is a tall building there. The building is a school for everyone in the Piriparara region. Miss can see Rapapu's teacher. He is the founder of the school and lives there.” Said the guard soldier.
“Thank you very much, uncle. Then we'll be there.” Batari Mahadewi. He and Nala continue the journey while enjoying the atmosphere of a city that is very much different from the shape of the city in the world they came from.
Along the way, Batari Mahadewi and Nala could only hold their saliva to stop by the tavern and buy food in the strange city.
“It's a shame we don't have any money.” Batari Mahadewi.
“Food you keep thinking. My brother and I have never even set foot in a diner in our lifetime.” Nala.
“Hahaha, even without food we can still live and will not run out of energy. But actually, eating good food is something fun. My brother and I stopped by the diner in every city we visited.” Batari Mahadewi.
“Do we still have some para fruit? Try selling one. Who knows the money is enough for us to eat in the store.” Nala.
“You're smart, Nala. alright. There is a fruit seller, let's sell it there.” Batari Mahadewi.
The two young warriors walked over to the sizable fruit stall. There are dozens of unique shaped and colored fruits sold there. Nala memorize one by one type of fruit. At the very least, he would know which fruit was worth eating if they found a fruit tree in the forest.
“Excuse me, uncle. We want to sell this one. Is uncle interested in buying it?” ask Batari Mahadevi.
“Ah, of course. rare fruit. What price do you want?” ask the fruit seller.
“Please uncle about what is the reasonable price for this rare fruit.” Batari Mahadevi.
“I give you one crystal bag. I think it's a fair price and I usually get it for that price from the farmers in Catara.” village The fruit seller said while mentioning the name of the only fruit-producing village.
Batari Mahadevi was stunned when she saw the crystal in the bag. A few pieces of crystal that had been cut in such a way into uniform pieces.
“Is the money in this country shaped like this, uncle. Sorry we just saw it. We have no money at all.” Batari Mahadewi.
“Good uncle. We don't have to count it. Thank you very much.” Batari Mahadewi. He and Nala immediately rushed over to talk about something.
“Do you see this, Nala? if a crystal like this is the currency, don't we still have the reserves we brought from the Demon Island the other day?”
“Yes, I still keep it in my roll. If you know this can be money, then we do not need to sell the fruit.” said Nala.
“What's wrong, at least we know that this crystal is the currency. You also still carry the crystal that emits the golden light and the silver light?” ask Batari Mahadevi.
“Yes. Hmm.maybe the value is higher. Let's see it later. If there is a place to exchange money, we can try to exchange the smallest one we have. Now we try to eat at the store.” Nala pointed to one tavern that seemed to be selling grilled meat.
Batari Mahadevi and Nala entered the shop. The servants and some visitors had looked at the two with strange gazes, then they continued their activities.
“There are things we can help you with, ladies and gentlemen. It seems that you foreigners are coming here huh?” ask the waiter.
“True uncle, we want two servings of the best food from this store.” Nala.
“Please choose a comfortable table and seat, ladies and gentlemen, we will immediately prepare the best food from us for two people.” The servant said, and then he went to prepare the order of Batari Mahadevi and Nala.
Shortly after, their order arrived. Two large pieces of roasted meat with a thick sauce that smears it immediately arouses curiosity to taste the dish.
“This is the best meat we have today, ladies and gentlemen. Enjoy.” The servant said.
“Thanks uncle.” Nala said. the two warriors from the world of one moon were directly eating the dish. Their eyes bulged because of the delicious taste of the seasoning and the taste of the meat. In a short time, the food was gone. Even to its fruit.
“Ahhhh...really delicious.ii.” Batari said Mahadewi in a very happy tone after enjoying the food.
“Hewan. We have to find out how the beast forms.” Nala said.
“Let's pay first.” Batari Mahadevi. Both called for a waiter. The waiter came smiling.
“How much should we pay, uncle.” Nala.
“Only eight pieces yellow crystal, sir.” The servant said.
“Uncle, sorry, where can we find the wacko beast?” ask batari Mahadevi.
“In the market you can find it. It is in the form of a piece of meat. No one sold him alive. The beast was very large and could not be brought alive to this city. Hunters usually catch these animals in the forests far south of the city, divide them in pieces, and then take them to the city. This meat includes expensive.” The waiter explained.
“Alright, thank you very much, uncle.” Batari Mahadewi. The two warriors then hurried away from the diner.
