Batari Mahadewi was surprised to see the change in the shape of the nails on his hands and feet. Now the nails are shaped more slender with tapered ends. He touched his nails and he felt that his nails had turned into golden metal.
He could not believe the change in his body, then he scratched his nails slowly on a small table in his room. The iron table was scratched as a very sharp sword incision. Then he tried to scratch the nail into his skin. It turned out that his skin was immune to the sharpness of his new nails.
Batari Mahadevi was very confused. ‘How should I hide this nail..maybe I can disguise its color with wood dye..but what about this pointed nail tip?’ He did not give up, he took a small knife and tried to slash the tip of his nail. What happened was that it wasn't the nails that were slashed, but the knife that was cut off.
‘If it's like this, am I still human? Lest I was a demon..oh no..ah..do not think a non-no...at least I did not lose my consciousness..’ Batari Mahadewi tried to calm down.
He put his body on the bed and tried to go back to sleep. Batari Mahadevi never knew that the verse he read was a spell that became a way for him and the golden peacock in the back garden.
The next morning, City Hall was shocked by the news of the death of the golden peacock. The bird was no longer golden, but an ordinary green peacock who had lost his life.
Batari Mahadevi never told anyone about the dream he had and he regretted a little because he had met the peacock. ‘Ah...maybe this is already destiny.’ The Yellow Starling Duke looked grim as the golden peacock he was proud of was now dead. His mood was very bad, especially because he got the special bird from something special as well.
Before the duke got the golden peacock, he had a dream of meeting a beautiful girl who had laid a golden egg. The girl said that the egg would hatch and become a beautiful bird.
But in time, the bird will return to its destiny. The next morning, after his strange dream last night, the Duke finds a golden peacock feeding in the back garden. Since then he has kept it.
Only, the Duke had forgotten his dream of meeting a girl who entrusted him with a golden egg. He considered the golden peacock to be his and he was very unprepared when the bird died. Such is.
After the uproar, all returned to their respective activities. Jalu and Niken have not noticed the change in Batari Mahadevi because everything looks as usual and Batari Mahadewi always hides his nails.
He wanted to rush out of the City Hall immediately, buying long-sleeved clothes and gloves to hide his nails. Of course, the nails will be a concern for many people.
“Good morning beautiful lady, last night you slept like a dead man.” Sapa Jalu who from last night had not had time to talk anything with Batari Mahadewi. “Does sister have any good news?” Ask Jalu.
“Not really. Hmm.I'll tell you later. Now I really no need and should go outside City Hall.” Batari said Mahadewi was a little nervous because he did not want Jalu to see his nails. “See you later brother.” Then Batari Mahadevi hurriedly left.
“About once with sister. It's not usually like that. Was yesterday he okay with his disguise like that?” Said Niken.
“Entahlah. There seems to be something strange. But we better wait.”
Soon Galuh came with food and fruit. He was very sweet to Jalu. Niken, who did not want to see the annoying sight, went to the library and left them both.
“It's a shame that the peacock died this morning.” Said Jalu confusedly looking for the topic of conversation.
“Iya Raden's. It is unfortunate that the bird does not live long. It was my father's favorite bird. You guys are lucky to still have seen it yesterday.” Galuh.
“Maybe it's good today I postpone talking about something to uncle considering his mood must be bad at this time.” Said Jalu.
“It's better. Since then he was moody and aloof.” Galuh. “Is Raden going to stay here long?” ask Galuh curious.
“It's still uncertain. It might take a little while.” Said Jalu.
“Thank God then.” Galuh keceplosan.
“What's up, Brother?” ask Jalu.
“E. I'm just glad Raden Jalu, miss Niken and miss Batari Mahadewi are staying here. I so have a friend chat.” Galuh Replied. “Raden, please eat the food I brought earlier. I cooked it myself.” Galuh said. “I will also deliver this food for Miss Niken in the library.” Reciprocity.
“E...preferably do not. Just leave him there, later if he is hungry will definitely come here.” Said Jalu. It's not a good thing if Niken and Galuh meet. Since yesterday afternoon before the two of them disguised themselves, Niken looks changed and looks unhappy with Galuh's arrival. Jalu felt wrong, on the one hand he could not avoid Galuh for no reason. On the other hand, he didn't want Niken to be upset with him.
After finishing accompanying Jalu breakfast, Galuh bailed to go to his room. He did not want to disturb Jalu because he knew one of the reasons Jalu lived there because there were important things he had to do.
“You don't want to taste this food?” ask Jalu.
“Silver eat alone. I just want to eat these fruits.” Said Niken a little ketus.
“Sister is angry with me?” Jalu Fishing.
“No.” Answer Niken.
Batari Mahadewi came with his new clothes that actually looked strange, namely long-sleeved clothes that are rather oversize so that they cover his entire hand because of its size which is also too long.
“Does sister want to go undercover again?” ask Niken wonder.
“No. Since yesterday I dressed differently, now I want to try a new appearance.” Batari Mahadewi.
“But isn't that shirt too big for you?” Niken is still curious.
“I accidentally chose this.” Answer Batari Mahadevi.
“You sure you want to wear it?” Niken is still hunting Batari Mahadewi with questions. “And..astaga. You also wear gloves .. I think the taste of sister's clothes is bad once today.” Connect Niken.
“Hahaha..entahlah, I like it.” Batari Mahadevi is still trying to reason.
“Then it's like this, where there's a boy who glances at you, sister.” Gurau Niken's.
“That's why I chose this outfit. It turned out to be the eyes of many men are not too fun. I proved it yesterday.” Batari said Mahadewi could finally escape the questions of Niken.
It was proven after that Niken did not ask again about his clothes.
“Adik promises to tell you something.” Said Jalu, “What's interesting are you going to tell me?”
“I met the swordsman Matahari, the sole heir to the famous 5th Science of the Sun.” Batari Mahadewi.
“He is here? How did sister find him?” Jalu was curious because all this time he had only heard the story from his teacher.
“Yes, he's here. His name is Ki Sura. I don't know why he's guarding the city library right now. I think he hid himself from the martial world by disguising himself as a library keeper.” Batari Mahadewi.
“The bloomer has been missing for a long time. Unlike our teacher who despite resigning from the martial world, but anyone who wants to meet then can meet him at padepokan.” Said Niken.
“But how did he leak his secret to you?” Tanya Jalu to Batari Mahadevi.
“I haven't told sister. On my first day in the library, I found a secret script hidden in an old manuscript. I read it and I accidentally learned the techniques of the sun. Anyone who studies this science, will emit a distinctive aura and with that then he speaks to me.” Batari Mahadewi.
“Did he know the existence of Black Bats?” Ask Jalu.
“She said we don't have to look for them. We just need to get ready to wait for them to show themselves.” Batari said Mahadewi. “how about brother, did sister get something?”
“We found an old building. We didn't get any leads, but I had a feeling the building was hiding something.” Said Jalu.
“We'd better wait.” Said Niken.
