Pendekar Batari Mahadewi: The Journey to Find Your Self
Episode 346 Goodbye Ki Gading White
When Batari Mahadevi walked slowly towards her home, leaving the peaceful home of her mother, she felt a strange radiance coming closer. He lifted his head and there he saw Nala carrying the teacher and her brothers flying behind him. They're heading straight for the paddle.
Batari Mahadewi immediately remembered that his teacher was seriously injured. He wanted to know how the teacher was doing, and then in one blink of an eye, the divine heirloom woman was already in the store. All his fellow-citizens had gathered in the pendopo, and the teacher had been lying there.
“Dance, sorry, I couldn't save Gading's grandfather,” Nala said. He was not finished mourning the passing of the mother, now he witnessed the death of the teacher. All of the Ivory students showed a gloomy look on their faces, with wet eyes. Buyung seemed very devastated, however he was raised by the teacher since he was a child. To him, the teacher was like his own parents.
The tears of Batari Mahadewi have melted. He walked over to the body of the teacher, and sat there.
“How about your mother, Dance?” ask Jalu.
“My mother was also gone, just after I came,” she said in a trembling voice.
Niken, Anjani, and Vidyana gave a hug of condolence to the heirloom of the god. It could be said that all colleges have mourned the passing of their brothers and sisters, or also their teachers.
The disciples of the White Ivory buried the teacher in the cave of the Sacred Heart, the place where the teacher loved the most when he was alive.

The next day, with a little sadness left, the students Ki Gading Putih berbug in the pendopo.
“What next are you going to do, Tari?” Buyung asked. Everyone knew that the problems related to the presence of the giant nation were only Tari and Nala could solve it.
“I'll make sure the giants get off this island, today. I will go with Nala,” replied Batari Mahadewi.
“But Dance, don't you remember the king of gods?” Nala reminded that while the king of the gods does not exist, Batari Mahadewi should not be rash to do something.
“Do you think Kalapati will appear again if I remove them from this region?” ask Batari Mahadevi.
“Surely so, we should just wait for the arrival of the king of gods. He must have a plan. After all, the giant will not dare to move west anytime soon,” said Nala.
“Alright then. Then what are the plans for Buyung next?” ask Batari Mahadevi.
“After the teacher is gone, this padepokan should not be abandoned. This is our home together. For sure, I will always be here. I won't force you to stay here, but don't forget this house. If you have your own future plans, then go, but take a step home and look at the tomb of our teacher,” said Buyung.
Everyone agrees with Buyung. Everyone deserves to live their own lives.
“Today Niken and I will go to the city of Dhyana, see my father and mother, and report this sad news to the king,” said Jalu.
“Ah, I forgot about this. Yes, of course you should tell your majesty. After all, the teacher is the uncle of your majesty, although not many know about this,” said Buyung. Everyone there, except Buyung and Jalu, was quite shocked by it. In fact, they also did not know that Ki Gading Putih was the uncle of Srengenge Ireng.
On that very day, Jalu and Niken left for the city of Dhyana. While others still live in the city. They'll be there as long as things get confusing.

“After you return!” Kalapati.
“A day here equals ten years there. I worked hard to create this thing with the help of the god king there,” said the god king. He immediately headed to the holy pond, drowning the mustika there.
A thousand colors emanated from the pond and instantly everything in the heavenly world returned as before the giant nation came. Not only that, the golden crystal on the altar of the Ocean by itself returned intact and worked as it should.
“Completed already. Mustika a thousand colors has become one with our world. This one will never be broken and can never be taken by anyone. Although we are all destroyed, the power of this sacred pool will remain a living force that will never run out, unless the sun goes out,” said the king of gods.
“This means..” Kalapati has not finished speaking, the king of gods cut him off.
“That is, I no longer need to maintain and renew the source of this divine power. In fact, this divine energy source is also a source of middle and lower world power,” said the god king calmly.
“King of gods, what exactly are you hiding from me?” ask Kalapati.
“What do you want to know? I will tell you,” said the king of gods.
“Where are the gods currently located?” ask Kalapati.
“The remaining god is hiding somewhere called the Ocean altar. You ever heard of it?” ask the god king.
“What are they doing there?” ask Kalapati.
“Behold, every creature has its duty, so do the gods. Who rules the wind if not the god of the wind? Who rules the sea if not the sea god? There are many things that the gods must do according to their respective duties to guard this world. I am indeed the king who commands them all, but I have no power over their destiny. I can't control the rain, control the earth, and so on. They are the ones who are able to do their duty,” said the god king.
“Are they going back to khayangan?” ask Kalapati.
“Okay, I haven't stood as a king in a long time. They know what they are supposed to do,” said the god king. “Kalapati, there are things that you should know, someday there will be someone challenging you, because you should not stay here. This is the destiny of the single. Neither me nor you can resist!”
“You mean the god-powered man who met me?” ask Kalapati.
“Name Sang Hyang Maharuna Dewi Sakti. He is the one who came to fight you,” said the god king.
“Hmm, very interesting. I miss fighting. It's so boring here! Tell me, where is he currently!” Kalapati.
“She's in the middle world, somewhere.”
“Isn't the crystal ball you gave me supposed to be able to find its existence?” ask Kalapati.
“Of course, as long as he shows up in the region that can be seen in that ball. But how do you monitor it? He's in one of the millions of events in the middle world. Just wait for a big event, you will definitely find it!” the king of gods.
Kalapati still thought that the god king was on his side. The god king did speak honestly, but what he said would also not be fully understood by Kalapati. After all, the king of the gods already has a plan if at any time Kalapati came down to the world and fought against the heirloom of the god.
