THE BLOOD OF JAVA

THE BLOOD OF JAVA
JAVANESE BLOOD: EPISODE 206

Prabu Jabang Wiyagra and Mbah Kangkas are still sitting in the park, talking about other things. Mbah Kangkas provides various advice for Prabu Jabang Wiyagra whose mood is not good. Prabu Jabang Wiyagra felt very grateful to Mbah Kangkas, because he had been willing to accompany him all day.


Everyone in the palace was busy with their respective affairs, especially Maha Patih Lare Damar. He didn't know Mbah Kangkas was there. Because he was still busy with Zafir, who was training the palace soldiers on his parish. Maha Patih Lare Damar held a lot of training in the padepokan.


Maha Patih Lare Damar only anticipates that until there is another attack from their enemies. If there is an attack at least the soldiers are ready with what they will face in front. Moreover, the soldiers who guarded the palace in important soldiers. And every one of them is required to be immune to any weapon.

"So what brings you to this place Mbah Kangkas?" Ask Prabu Jabang Wiyagra.


"Hamba and the warriors Gusti Prabu sent, experienced a lot of difficulties, because we lack the energy to keep the residents in the pest area, Gusti Prabu. I want to ask for weapons and troops."


"I will definitely send help there, but it takes time. Especially for armaments. My troops will definitely be slow in delivering heavy weaponry. Because the journey to your store is also not completely safe, Mbah Kangkas."


"If the matter be the servant who takes care of it, Gusti Prabu. Servants are able to transfer heavy weapons from this palace to the slave's store."


"really?"


"True Gusti Prabu. If Gusti Prabu allows it."


Prabu Jabang Wiyagra looked in wonder at Mbah Kangkas, whereas Prabu Jabang Wiyagra never forbade Mbah Kangkas to use his abilities. Mbah Kangkas just smiled at Prabu Jabang Wiyagra who was still looking at him with a look of wonder full of questions.


"Why does Mbah Kangkas need my permission? The kangkas only need to use it."


Mbah Kangkas laughed a little, though,


"I'm sorry Gusti Prabu. Although the servant is not the official Gusti Prabu servant, but the servant already considers Gusti Prabu Jabang Wiyagra as the king of the servants. I have long wanted to devote myself to Gusti Prabu Jabang Wiyagra."


"....Therefore, I always ask permission from Gusti Prabu, if every time I ask something related to the Kingdom of Wiyagra Malela."


"Hoo...."


"alright. Alright. This is Mbah Kangkas, not that I refused Mbah Kangkas to be my brother. But, Mbah Kangkas is already at the same level as my teacher. How could? I can't do it. It would be considered an insult to a teacher."


"Of course not Gusti. A servant who is running for service. It wasn't Gusti who asked the servant."


Mbah Kangkas's answer made Prabu Jabang Wiyagra even more confused. He did not want to reject Mbah Kangkas. But on the other hand, he was also very happy that Mbah Kangkas would serve him, although now the ruling king in his residence is Prabu Barajang. Which means, Mbah Kangkas really needs a leader who can protect everyone.


And it's in Prabu Jabang Wiyagra. Even maybe, Prabu Jabang Wiyagra can raise Mbah Kangkas as his advisor. But Prabu Jabang Wiyagra really did not feel good if he raised Mbah Kangkas to be his abdicator. Because Mbah Kangkas belongs to the group of people who are at the same level as the Supreme Master. For Prabu Jabang Wiyagra it looks disrespectful. For raising a teacher to be a servant.


"Ah.. Here's how Mbah Kangkas, how about we finish our business with Prabu Barajang first? After that, I will decide what it will look like in the future. Because I also have to ask for advice from Father Master first. How is Mbah Kangkas?"


"Hmmm.... All right Gusti Prabu. The servant agrees with that. It is true Gusti, it is appropriate Gusti Prabu Jabang Wiyagra to ask advice to the Supreme Master."


Finally Prabu Jabang Wiyagra and Mbah Kangkas agreed to discuss it at a later time. The two then went back to discuss the plan Mbah Kangkas with Utari Gita and his friends, to attack Prabu Barajang, as well as to strengthen the defense in Padepokan Mbah Kangkas.


Now, Padepokan Mbah Kangkas became the main target of Prabu Barajang and his troops, who turned out to have risen again from their slump. Reportedly Prabu Barajang indicated to cooperate with Mbah Handgang and also Nyi Dwi Sangkar. And most likely, Maha Patih Kana Raga was also there.


Or even, now Maha Patih Kana Raga has replaced the position of Maha Patih Salara who is no longer heard from. You could say, Maha Patih Salara has been 'eliminated' from the government of Prabu Barajang. Because he had messed with Prabu Barajang, by trying to take over the power of the Bala Bathara Kingdom.


The suspicions of Mbah Kangkas and Prabu Jabang Wiyagra are also reinforced by the strength of Prabu Gala Ganda which is getting weaker and weaker. In fact, Maha Patih Rangkat Sena had previously recruited and trained many of the best troops in the Kingdom of the Son of Bathara.


Moreover, the Kingdom of the Son of Bathara also did not get any attacks from any party. It was very strange that his army suddenly became weak in an instant. Spies sent by Commander Galang Tantra have also long not reported to Commander Galang Tantra, or other members of the Bara Jaya Army.


It did not rule out the possibility that the spy was caught. Or perhaps the most powerful is that the spy does not have free access to report what happened in the Kingdom of the Son of Bathara. Because it is predictable, with the return of the power of Prabu Barajang as a king, Prabu Barajang must have demanded revenge for the actions of his brother, who did not help him when he was in trouble.


Although there is a curse that prevents Prabu Barajang from killing his brother, Prabu Barajang must be looking for other ways to vent his hatred. In what way? In a way especially if not by weakening and destroying the power of Prabu Gala Ganda. So that his brother should not be killed in his hands.


Especially now that Prabu Barajang is suspected of cooperating with the magic swordsmen who have long been sworn enemies of Prabu Jabang Wiyagra and the Kingdom of Wiyagra Malela. His power will surely increase. And Prabu Barajang will be more courageous to oppress anyone who he considers to have harmed his power.


But as everyone knows, Prabu Barajang and Prabu Gala Ganda are always good at covering ulcers in their respective kingdoms. They must have covered up their dispute from the public. So that no other kingdom would interfere, or take advantage of the opportunity to destroy them both. Especially with Prabu Jabang Wiyagra.
