THE BLOOD OF JAVA
JAVANESE BLOOD: EPISODE 170
"I really appreciate you and your teacher, Zafir. But I still don't know, what position you deserve in this place." Prabu Jabang Wiyagra said to Zafir.
"According to the servant teacher, the servant is required to make a padepokan, whose position is close to the palace of the Kingdom of Wiyagra Malela, Maha Raja."
"I wonder who your teacher really is? Because he could not send to this place just to serve in the palace of the Kingdom of Wiyagra Malela."
"The servant teacher is Shaykh Hassan Baghda, the King. In the past, when he was young, he often visited the land of Java."
"Sheikh Hassan Baghda? Did ya? And you're his student?!" Prabu Jabang Wiyagra asked in surprise, upon hearing the name of Shaykh Hassan Baghda.
"The King is the King, his disciple. As well as his adopted son."
Prabu Jabang Wiyagra was really surprised, after he knew that this guest was a student of a great scholar. Shaykh Hasaan Baghda is clearly no stranger to the ears of Prabu Jabang Wiyagra. Because he knows very well who Shaykh Hassan Baghda is. The Maha guru once divorced about a great scholar who came to the Land of Java, and had a meeting with the Supreme Master.
His name was Shaykh Hassan Baghda. A close friend of the Supreme Master himself. Although they have different beliefs, but they never quarrel, nor disagree in the slightest. It was precisely with that difference that they became increasingly familiar. And share knowledge with each other.
Prabu Jabang Wiyagra never thought that Shaykh Hassan Baghda's student would come to the palace of the Wiyagra Malela Kingdom, to meet him. Because Prabu Jabang Wiyagra himself never once met with Shaykh Hassan Baghda. Prabu Jabang Wiyagra only knows the story of the Supreme Master.
Prabu Jabang Wiyagra still does not really believe in the words of Zafir. Because it is very difficult to be accepted by his reason. In fact, in the youth of the Supreme Master and Shaykh Hassan Baghda, Prabu Jabang Wiyagra did not exist, or may have been very small. The Supreme Master gave the story after the Supreme Master had aged, and Prabu Jabang Wiyagra was an adult.
That is, the Supreme Master and Sheikh Hassan Baghda have not met each other for decades. And Prabu Jabang Wiyagra never once met Shaykh Hassan Baghda. Because after his age was getting older, Sheikh Hassan Baghda never again make a visit to the land of Java. Not like when he was young.
"Well, if you are indeed a disciple of Shaykh Hassan Baghda, give me one solid proof. Which can make me believe you."
"All is King."
Zafir then got up from his chair. He put his sword on the floor. Suddenly the sword stood on its own, and came out of its sheath. And a verse was written on the blade of the sword. But only Prabu Jabang Wiyagra himself can see it. The verses inscribed on the blade of the sword emitted a white radiance.
Only with this evidence, Prabu Jabang Wiyagra immediately believed in the speech of Zafir Al-Hamzah. Because no heirloom sword has such extraordinary power, like the sword used by Zafir. And Zafir was the only one who had the sword. Prabu Jabang Wiyagra then ordered Zafir to re- SHEathe his sword.
"Enough Zafir. That sword was already the most powerful evidence. For no one has such a sword except Shaykh Hassan Baghda. And now the sword has been handed down to you. I believe everything you say now."
"Thank you King. Then allow the servant to serve the Supreme King Gusti Prabu Jabang Wiyagra."
"Yes. Today I accept you to be my servant. Make a mockery, as your teacher, Sheikh Hassan Baghda, commanded. I'll help you build that stash."
"Hamba said thousands of thanks, King. I swear, I will always be loyal to King Gusti Prabu Jabang Wiyagra."
Starting today too, Zafir Al-Hamzah immediately sought a suitable location to build his stacks. Prabu Jabang Wiyagra gave freedom to Zafir. He is allowed to choose a suitable land to build his paddle. Prabu Jabang Wiyagra also ordered Patih Daraka and Patih Kayat, to help the construction of the paddock.
Prabu Jabang Wiyagra granted Zafir's request without a second thought. Prabu Jabang Wiyagra has complete trust in Zafir. Because Zafir has proved everything he said. Prabu Jabang Wiyagra saw something different in Zafir. There is a light that surrounds him at all times.
Zafir is completely different from everyone else. He looked much more authoritative, and had a very gentle nature. Somehow he when faced in battle and war. But the inner view of Prabu Jabang Wiyagra saw that Zafir was very skilled in warfare.
He has been trained for many years by Sheikh Hassan Baghda, to be a formidable person. For decades passed, this time Sheikh Hassan Baghda sent one of his students to do devotion in Java. Previously, Sheikh Hassan Baghda never sent anyone to come to Java.
Even when Shaykh Hassan Baghda was still a frequent visitor to the land of Java, Sheikh Hassan Baghda never once went with his students. Shaykh Hassan Baghda always walked alone. He was never escorted or accompanied by anyone. Shaykh Hassan Baghda never wanted to trouble anyone, including his own students.
Although Prabu Jabang Wiyagra could not see clearly the face of Sheikh Hassan Baghda in his inner eye view, but Prabu Jabang Wiyagra can see what has been taught by Shaykh Hassan Baghda to his students. Prabu Jabang Wiyagra could clearly see the daily activities of Sheikh Hassan Baghda.
Now Sheikh Hassan Baghda is too old to visit Java. His age is very old. All her hair has gone gray. Even Shaykh Hassan Baghda walked slowly, and very carefully. Because his physical condition has changed drastically, in his aging age.
Another time when he was young. Shaykh Hassan Baghda was a mighty knight, and was greatly feared by his opponents. Even if Shaykh Hassan Baghda was seriously injured, he would never give up. For abstaining from submission and succumbing to his enemies.
So, in his own country, Shaykh Hassan Baghda was a great warrior. Because in the past, the Middle East has also experienced major wars, which caused millions of casualties. However, the great war was won by a king who led Sheikh Hassan Baghda, who at that time served as the Commander of the Main War.
