Pendekar Batari Mahadewi: The Journey to Find Your Self
Episode 128 Plan Visit
In Swargadwipa, a month had passed since the red Tiger began to move back to reassemble its power. Now he chose not to make a large group like before, but rather to gather a few highly capable warriors. He no longer wants to cooperate with the warriors of Hell island who some are still in Swargadwipa because of their nature that is difficult to control.
The red tiger preferred to hire black warriors who were loyal and obedient to his orders. To disguise his identity, the Red Tiger changed his name as the Devil Face swordsman. The proper name for his face that was damaged by burns. At least, without having to do anything, the swordsman would definitely always succeed in scaring the civilians.
Sri Maharaja Segara Biru has sent a letter to Sri Maharaja Srengenge Ireng that his family will visit. The news was like the fruit of simalakama for the kingdom of Swargadwipa. There is no reason to refuse, but the situation is not possible to receive a visit given the situation Swargadwipa is in recovery.
Buyung, Mahapatih Siung Tigers Beetles, and Maharaja Srengenge Ireng are conducting a closed meeting in the room of the king.
“How is this, uncle Patih? Letter from Swargabhumi very suddenly.” Said the King.
“It's hard to resist, sire. If we reject it, it is the same as we smear our own face before another kingdom. But at the same time, the letter did really come at the wrong time.” Mahapatih Siung Tigers Kumbang.
“Uncle patih correct. The letter, along with the visit that will be carried out, seems deliberately held at times like this. The Swargabhumi kingdom should have known that the Swargadwipa kingdom had only two months to recover from the attacks of the black warriors. If they want to express their condolences, then there is no need to make a visit like this, right?” Buyung.
“Nak Buyung is right. Moreover, the Swargabhumi country is not an ally of Swargadwipa although so far there has been no feud so this visit feels unnatural. In addition, in recent years there have been few things that have triggered tension. Secretly, many Swargabhumi residents moved to the border region of Swargadwipa, namely in the city of Blue Pearl.” Mahapatih Siung Tigers Kumbang.
“Uncle and Buyung's sister were right. I know, this visit could be a subtle attack. Segara Biru may still hold a grudge against me so it is not impossible if he wants to take advantage of this opportunity. If we refuse, the news of this rejection will spread to other kingdoms and it will make our name bad. However, if we accept, it means that we should really be able to escort the group and ensure their safety.” Said the King.
“It seems that I found the common thread of the attacks of the black stream warriors with news of a visit from Swargabhumi this time. Who would want to flow funds for the preparation of the attack if he did not want to bring down Swargadwipa? Not a few funds that are only possible to be flowed from royal funds.” Buyung.
The king stood up and took a scroll of cloth inside which was a map of the kingdom on the island of Mahabhumi.
“See this. The Swargabhumi kingdom was allied with the four western kingdoms of Swargaranu, Swargawana, Catrawana, and Catrabhumi. While we only have three allies in the eastern kingdom, namely the kingdom of Swargaloka, Madyabhumi, and Mahatmabhumi.” Said the king while frowning. His mind was looking far away, remembering everything he knew from all those kingdoms.
“Does uncle have the latest news from spy warriors about the circumstances in western kingdoms?” the king asked Mahapatih Siung Tigers.
“According to the spy soldiers who for many years I have placed in all the kingdoms in Mahabhumi, the current natural conditions in the western region are indeed bad. Many areas are failing harvests and that means, they are all in a precarious situation. Conversely, the situation in the eastern region can still be said to be safe. Inter-island trade in the eastern region is also more advanced when compared to the western region.” Mahapatih Siung Tigers Kumbang.
“Hamba sense, the current situation Swargadwipa is a situation that is very likely to be used by western kingdoms to control the east. If there was a war between Swargadwipa and Swargabhumi, surely that situation is what the western kingdoms want the most.” Buyung.
“Your thoughts are very precise, sister Buyung. This can't happen. If war were to occur, the most disadvantaged party would definitely be the kingdom of Swargadwipa, which was the last border separating the western and eastern parts.” Said the king.
“Uncle, do your best to ensure the safety of Swargabhumi.” royal family group Tell the king to Mahapatih Siung Tigers Beetles.
“Siap, paduka.” Mahapatih Siung Tigers Kumbang.

“Next week, the Swargabhumi royal family group who will make a visit to Swargadwipa will arrive in the city of Blue Pearl. Our task is to kill the six sons of Segara Biru. This task is not an easy task because the king's son will get a strict escort from the kingdom of Swargabhumi and Swargadwipa.” The Face of Satan.
The five warriors hired by the Face of Satan had absolutely no idea about the main purpose of the murderous task they were about to execute. For them, it was not important to know what the killing meant, the most important thing was the huge reward they would receive if they managed to do so.
“Therefore, I would like to hear first the opinions of colleagues all about what means we will use to kill that prince?” ask the Face of Satan.
“If we can not do an attack directly, then all we can do is infiltrate secretly.” The word Poison Warrior Heaven.
“You mean by going undercover and blending in with the entourage?” ask the swordsman of Death.
“There is no way we can disguise and blend in the group if they are escorted by warriors.” The word of the swordsman Laba-Laba.
“I mean is by poisoning their food.” Poison warrior Heaven said, “I just need to put a drop of poison into his food.”
“I know it will work, but I also know we will gas before doing it.” The word of the Thousand Lives.
“Listen first to the explanation of the swordsman Poison Heaven. She's not finished talking.” Said the swordsman Poison of Hell, the younger brother of the warrior Poison of Heaven.
“You two are poison masters. Of course your idea is to poison them all. But, how can we approach and mix your poison into the sixth prince's meal?” ask the Thousand Lives.
“Spider spiders can do it. You can get one of your little pets to drop my poison into the prince's food or drink to six.” Poison Heaven said, the “Toxins I used are my best poisons. It won't hurt and won't leave any marks. He would only die a moment after swallowing the poison.”
“No, that's not what I want!” satan's Face, “I want this murder to be clearly seen as a murder committed by Swargadwipa.” I'd rather we use a slightly blatant way to sneak in and attack. Do you dare to do it?” the Face of Satan.
Not a word came out of the mouths of the warriors he invited. All still seemed to think and wait for each other who would first respond to the words of the Face of Satan.
“If you can't, I won't force. Our agreement is completed until here.” The Face of Satan.
“Wait, brother, we're all thinking.” The Poison of Heaven.
“That's not what I ask, do you dare to risk losing your life in carrying out this task? If there is none, please leave this place.” The Devil's Face.
No one's moving. Not that they were entirely brave, only that they were ashamed to be called cowards.
