The Ancestral Country
Lurak The robber

Ayu Galuh was really wild that night. And the Watugunung Panji did not lose. The influence of the drinks given by Ayu Galuh is extraordinary. Almost the whole night they make out.

Patugunung Panji wakes up when the sun is high. He's not usually like this.

'Where's Srimpi? Why didn't he wake me?'

Panji Watugunung looked at Ayu Galuh who was still sleeping by hugging her. Daha's daughter's body was smooth without a thread covering it. Patugunung Panji remembered the incident last night. He smiled thinly.

Slowly, Panji Watugunung moved Ayu Galuh's hand. Then cover her body with a blanket. Garwa patmi second is indeed beautiful and graceful but a little stubborn.

Soon Panji Watugunung put on his clothes, and opened the door of the room. Two of his soldiers stood guard at the door of his room.

"What are you doing here?", asked Patugunung Panji.

"Pardon us Gusti Prince, we told Gusti Putri to stand guard here. Gusti Putri said, if anyone enters from the outside, our heads will be cut off" said the guard soldier in a frightened tone.

Panji Watugunung smiles knot.

'Cunning base Ayu Galuh. Srimpi just can't get in'.

The Watugunung banner immediately headed for the bath and cleaned up. After the shower, his body felt fresh. He went straight to Sekar Mayang's bedroom.

The woman was so happy when Panji Watugunung came in.

"Rear, you can finally escape from the wild princess' embrace".

"Sssstttttt keep your word Mayang. In this palace he is the one in power. All ears here are his ears. I told you, you guys gave up all the time here" whispered Panji Watugunung.

"But kang,..."

"Nothing but a tapi. You want me to be complicated again by him??", Panji Watugunung looked into the eyes of Sekar Mayang. Among his 3 concubines, Sekar Mayang is the most controlled.

"Yes no Kakang Watugunung, just.", Sekar Mayang did not continue his sentence.

"What's it?", Panji Watugunung scrunched his forehead.

"What do I do?", Sekar Mayang looked down embarrassed.

"Patience first, when later we have come out of the Daha palace, you are the first" said Panji Watugunung with a meaningful smile.

Sekar Mayang is just a mangosteen trying to understand.

Furthermore, for a week Ayu Galuh really mastered the Watugunung Panji. The concubines could only be patient even though in their hearts they were furious.

The Watugunung banner had already obtained a gold badge engraved with chandrakapala, the highest emblem as the representative of the king. Letters to each regional head are neatly arranged in bundles of cloth. Today the ceremony as the target of the manten has been carried out, meaning that tomorrow the Watugunung Panji can start its task.

The morning was so bright above the Dahanapura palace.

Patugunung Panji opened his eyes slowly. Seen his Ayu Galuh who still closed his eyes hugged him. When the Watugunung Panji was about to move Ayu Galuh's hand, the white hand held him.

Ayu Galuh was awake.

"Can Kangmas not leave today?" said Ayu Galuh, keeping her eyes closed.

"Dinda, I was carrying out an important task from Gusti Prabu Samarawijaya. Dinda can't be selfish. Only one full moon. It won't be long for Dinda" replied Watugunung with a smile.

"Kangmas wants to promise to come back for me?", Ayu Galuh's beautiful eyes opened and glazed. She loved her husband very much.

"Yes, Kangmas promised to return to you Dinda" said Panji Watugunung immediately stroked Ayu Galuh's head and kissed Daha's daughter's forehead.

"Kangmas...."

"Hmmmmm..."

"Kangmas Panji Watugunung hasn't said it?", Ayu Galuh stroked the chest of the husband's field.

"What did Dinda Galuh say?", Panji Watugunung scrunched his forehead.

"Ihhhh Kangmas hasn't told me that Kangmas loves me" Ayu Galuh pursed her tiny lips.

Hemmm

'This Daha Princess turned out to have a spoiled nature as well'.

"I love you Dinda Galuh".

Hearing the warm words from her husband, made Ayu Galuh smile happily.

"Again Kangmas".

"That's enough. I want to take a shower" said Panji Watugunung immediately jumped down from the bed and rushed to the bath.

Ayu Galuh ran after her.

After bathing and cleaning himself, Panji Watugunung immediately changed clothes. But this time he did not wear his noble clothes.

Brownish purple jarit, black shorts, black clink, iron tipped belt. The Watugunung banner wears it all without a shirt. Black headbands and hair straps are also black without gold ornaments. The black bahar root bracelet also increasingly confirms his grooming as a swordsman.

Without any noble clothes, Panji Watugunung is still handsome. Ayu Galuh who helps her husband dress up with a thin smile.

After dressing up and having breakfast, Panji Watugunung immediately jumped on his horse. Followed by Warigalit, Ratna Pitaloka, Sekar Mayang, Dewi Srimpi and Ratri. Ki Saketi had already returned to the Bracelets after Panji Watugunung and Ayu Galuh got married.

Ayu Galuh waved his hand. Panji Watugunung smiled faintly and immediately spurred his horse darting away from the prince towards Anjuk Farm in the west.

Ayu Galuh's tears trickled down as Panji Watugunung disappeared from her sight.

To the west of the Daha palace, a large pier provides crossing services of the Brantas river.

Watugunung immediately jumped down from his horse, approaching a worker who was helping to lift luggage from the boat.

"Kisanak, can this boat take us across?"

"Can kisanak. One way 2 pieces of bronze, if with a horse 3 pieces of bronze".

"Oh sure, let me take the kids" the worker replied politely.

The boat immediately sailed across the Brantas river. There were 10 passengers and 6 horses.

After paying and getting off the boat, the Watugunung Panji and his entourage immediately darted off the banks of the Brantas river. After a half-day trip, they stopped at a small woman on the edge of Pakuwon Berbek town.

At the end of Wanua there is a pretty crowded food stall. The banner of Watugunung immediately jumped down and tethered his horse in the following by all his followers.

Seeing the beautiful woman who had just entered following the footsteps of the Watugunung Panji, two pairs of eyes stared towards them. After nodding to each other the two pairs of eyes immediately rushed out the food stall.

The food at the food shop was good. The six of them ate voraciously.

"Kisanak, after eating, you should immediately leave this place" said the owner of the stall slightly whispering to the Watugunung Panji.

"Why Nyi? Am I wrong?", asked Watugunung in surprise.

"No, you're not wrong. But the 2 people who had just come out were looking directly at the girl.

They're Lurah Sumoranu's men, Wanua's lurah. They must be targeting the girl to be given as a gratifier for the depraved lust", said the owner of the food stall while pointing at Ratna Pitaloka.

"Nyi take it easy, we will be fine", replied Watugunung as he continued his meal.

"As for you young man, I just remind you all to be careful", said the owner of the food stall who was greeted with a nod of the head from Watugunung Panji.

After paying, the Watugunung Panji and his entourage immediately jumped on the horse. They pounded their horses towards Pakuwon Berbek. After the little Wanua they passed through a small forest south of the town of Pakuwon Berbek.

Suddenly arrived dozens of people in black clothes blocked their journey.

"Stop you! Quick down! ", shouted a large-bodied man who appeared to be the leader of the mob.

Warigalit jumped down. Followed by Panji Watugunung and his three concubines and Ratri.

"Give your treasure if you want to survive" said the robber leader was rude.

Phuihh

"We have no treasure, you just step aside", cried Warigalit loudly.

"If you have no treasure, hand over the woman let me make my concubine hahahaha", the robber leader laughed out loud at her men.

"I thought you guys would be like this. Why is it still covering your face Lurah Sumoranu?", Panji Watugunung smiled cynically.

The robber leader was surprised. He had not expected to reveal his disguise. With a huff, Sumoranu shouted out loud.

"Kill them all!"

Dozens of people in black immediately pulled out their swords and lunged forward towards the Panji Watugunung entourage.

A fierce fight soon ensued.

But they are not a heavy opponent for Watugunung Panji and friends. In just a few moves, Ratna Pitaloka had made a robber die covered in blood.

Ratri was the same, his agile movements made a robber faint after receiving his hard kick.

Sekar Mayang also did not lose. One by one the robbers he beat up to vomit blood.

Dewi Srimpi who looks calm is the cruelest. His small, poisonous needle quickly took the life of the robber with a single throw.

While Warigalit faced Sumoranu, the robber Lurah.

Warigalit's swift movement could already urge Sumoranu to retreat. One hit Warigalit had even landed on Sumoranu's left chest. From the corner of his lips, there was fresh blood flowing out.

Sumoranu's eyes flashed with anger. The huge sword in his hand he held tightly and shot rapidly towards Warigalit.

"I killed you!"
