Sanggana Swordsman
46. Queen Getara Love
The Great Commander of the Windscreen Kingdom, Jagaraya, walked himself into a fruitful orange grove. Looks make happy if you see the abundance of yellow citrus fruits that are still hanging on the stalk.
Jagaraya went through two guard soldiers who immediately showed respect as he passed through the garden door. He did not head to the fruitful orange trees, but he went to an open pendapa full of soldiers.
On one of the outer sides of the pendapa stood in a line of ten female ladies with their heads lowered. Not far from the pendapa there are a number of ponds. On the outskirts of one of the ponds, stood a beautiful beautiful woman with a rock tiara on her head. She is none other than Queen Getara of Love.
He was feeding the fish in the pond. Seen large-sized fish jostling on the edge scrambling to eat. In his hand was held a bowl of fish feed. Feeding fish in the pond is one of his favorites.
“Hamba facing, Her Majesty the Queen,” reported Jagaraya as she bowed with both hands taped in front of her head.
“Wake!” queen Getara Love's.
The jagaraya stood up straight again.
He and the Queen had just returned from the Fog Forest Champion Well. Until they reached the palace, Queen Getara Cinta did not invite him to speak. But then, he was immediately called to face the orange garden.
“What do you think of the second meeting?” ask Queen Getara Cinta while scattering feed into the water.
“I did not expect Aswa Tara would get such a foreign swordsman. The Grandfather of the Golden Snake and the Angel of the Grave Flute that we rely on, was made unable to wart. Obviously Ragatos could not face them in the third meeting,” replied Jagaraya.
“I suspect, the two young men are not mercenaries, but warriors who are forced to fight,” said Ratu Getara Cinta.
“Means Her Majesty the Queen?” ask Jagaraya.
“No mercenary character chooses to force his opponent to surrender. Clearly, Aswa Tara's power could not defeat the two. I suspect Aswa Tara is taking hostages of people close to them.”
Queen Getara Love turned around. Two ladies-in-waiting came closer with empty trays and water-filled trays in the bowl and fabric folds. The two then thrust it to Queen Getara with her upper body slightly bent and head lowered.
Queen Getara Cinta put her fish feed bowl in an empty tray and washed her hands in a water bowl and wiped it with a cloth. His finger movement gave the order for the two maids to back away.
Queen Getara stepped gracefully towards the pendapa. Jagaraya followed behind.
“There you do not know when the beautiful girl faced Grandpa Snake Gold,” said Queen Getara Love then sat on a cushion seat inside the pendapa. In front of him was a short wooden stew on which was a basket of oranges and a jug of cooked clay and glasses.
Queen Getara Cinta signaled that Jagaraya also sat on a cushion chair that was a little away from the table. There are six cushion chairs without a table whose position is one row only. It shows that only the queen has the right to eat and drink.
“What did the servant and others miss during that fight, Your Majesty?” ask Jagaraya.
“There was a time when the magical girl disappeared for a moment when she was first attacked by a snake,” said Queen Getara Cinta.
“True.”
“Do you know where he was then?”
“No, Your Highness.”
“At that time he was behind my neck.”
“What?!” shock Jagaraya. “He attacked Her Majesty the Queen?”
“No. However, if he wanted to do so, he could easily slaughter me. And you know for yourself what my powers are as high as. He did the secret way to talk to me. He asked me if I had Arak Kahyangan. I justify. He offered us victory at the third meeting on the condition that I give him Arak Kahyangan. I'm undertaking. And he asked the position of the Windscreen in which direction.”
“That means, they have people who desperately need Arak Kahyangan. And my guess is, that sick person was taken hostage by Aswa Tara.”
“What do you think, Jagaraya?”
“Although we still have Ragatos and two other paid warriors, but I cannot be sure if the Aswa Tara hero is still the two people. We have to do something. However, Your Majesty, Arak Kahyangan is not something that can be given so easily to someone. Arak Kahyangan is a precious treasure of Windscreen Kingdom.”
From outside the pendapa come in Bidadari Seruling Kury.
“Sit!”
Nintari sits on the side of Jagaraya.
“This time you have not benefited me at all, Grave,” said Queen Getara Cinta.
“I'm sorry. I've defended you three times in a Well Champion fight, but only this time I was defeated. I admit, my opponent this time was shocking,” replied Nintari.
“You know him?”
“The name is Joko Calm. I met him before when he was a snot boy. No. I don't think his science can be that great now.”
“Does Ragatos, Corpse Handler and Touch Goddess Takluk be able to deal with it?”
“I'm too doubtful. Their devotion is under my devotion and Grandfather the Golden Snake. I suggest Your Majesty do something to win,” said Nintari. “Joko sent you a message, Your Majesty. He will come to you.”
“If she is under the control of Aswa Tara, will she be able to come,” said Ratu Getara Cinta who does not need an answer.
“Joko Calm is looking for many wives, Your Majesty,” said Nintari.
“A lot wife?” Queen Getara Cinta recalls Nintari's words. What Nintari said to him was a bit strange.
“Maybe His Majesty is the one he wants to marry,” Nintari said again.
Quietly for a moment Queen Getara Love looked at Nintari. She still remembers when Joko smiled at her and gave her a strange but beautiful taste inside her chest.
“You don't brag, Grave!” hardik Queen Getara Love later.
“Hihihi!” Nintari laughed. “If I were a slightly more noble-hearted female warrior, perhaps she could fall for me. You know, Your Majesty, I am beautiful and adorable with my youthful body. Hihihi.”
“Stop your bullshit, Bury!” hardik Jagaraya's.
“I'm not bragging. Which man would not fall in love with a beautiful young queen like Her Majesty Queen Getara Love. Have power and treasure. Only a man afraid of death would not dare to fall in love with a queen. And Joko Calm is not a character of a man who is afraid of death,” said Nintari.
Nintari's words made Queen Getara Love silently think. According to him, Nintari's words have a point.
“According to the servant, the approximation of the Grave Flute is far from conjectured. If Joko was to come to the Windscreen, certainly not because of the matter of looking for a wife. Moreover, there is no way His Majesty is so easy to give heart to foreign men after 13 years of choosing his own,” Jagaraya said.
“Sorry, Your Grace. I think my job as a mercenary in this kingdom is done. So I told myself to go.”
“Alright,” says Ratu Getara Love.
Nintari then saluted and then left.
After the departure of Nintari, Queen Getara Cinta was silent to contemplate. Jagaraya saw the charm of his queen. There was a concern seeing the beautiful woman pensive.
“Does the Queen think of the young man?” ask Jagaraya in your heart. Then ask her directly, “What does Her Majesty the Queen think?”
“No. But in any case, we must prepare a foreign swordsman who if he can overcome the magic of Joko Calm and his future wife. There is no guarantee at this time that they will side with us,” said Ratu Getara Cinta. “If we let Aswa Tara win this year, it will do massive mining in origin and not think about its natural balance.”
“Good, Your Majesty. I will immediately order my men to go to meet Rampang Setati, hopefully he will help His Majesty,” said Jagaraya.
“Don't waste time. Send your men now!” queen Getara Love's.
“Good, Your Highness.” (BH)
