THE BLOOD OF JAVA
JAVANESE BLOOD: EPISODE 279
"Please, Nyi, shouldn't we help them? They can still be utilized to perform tasks that have not been completed by the Hip." Said one of the followers of Patri Asih.
Patri Asih has a stubborn nature and it is not easy to listen to the advice of others. Even from his confidants, Patri Asih sometimes doubted him. Patri Asih has a fascist ideology. Which is where he presses all his followers to submit and obey every command he gives them, without asking. The fascist ideology of Patri Asih was derived from his father, who was indeed a prince of the demon race.
This fascist ideology is also the Patri Asih to some of its loyal followers, the most loyal. The goal is clear, Patri Asih wants to lower his stubborn souls to his followers. So that they can continue what has been built by Patri Asih. Because after all, the Asih Patri will certainly age more and more. Although the age is slow, due to the magic that is in his body, Patri Asih will still die in time.
"I don't care anymore about the Hip and his followers. I have failed in every task I have given. They are not traits of people we can rely on to carry out unfinished tasks. If Panggul since can lose at the hands of the soldiers, of course his men are nothing."
"....Remember that! They are not my followers. They're just a bunch of hungry rats. When they find a new granary, they will betray me. So before that happens, then it would be better for me not to accept them at all. They are just bandits, and forever will be bandits." Answer Patri Asih.
The woman could only be speechless hearing the reply from Patriarch Asih. During this time all input from him, as well as his sisters, none of which was used by Patri Asih. Patri Asih always has different opinions and views from his followers. Even so, Patri Asih remains the most respected and feared leader. The power of Patri Asih is not visible to the naked eye. But the effect is incredible.
If you want to learn, then many people will realize, if all this time the Asih Patriarch is always masterminding the chaos in the territory of the Kingdom of Wiyagra Malela and its surroundings. Many kings in the Land of Java were victims of the incitement of Patri Asih and his followers. Patri Asih is very good at speaking. Every word that he put out could affect one's thinking. That is why he is considered a dangerous leader.
No one in this group dared to refute his orders, except to want to die. Everything he says must be done immediately. The Asih Patri does not care how things are. The important thing for him is to get what he wants. Patri Asih also never want to bother about the death of his followers. Death would be considered a commonplace thing for an Asih Patriarch.
Patri Asih has been used to seeing violence, cruelty, and death since he was very young. Death will be considered as a normal thing for him. There is no such thing as a day of mourning. If there was someone in this group who died, then everything would still go on as usual. Everyone will be busy with their business. So too with the Patriarch himself. Busy ones to and fro.
The Asih Patriarch traveled a lot, and moved frequently. He formed alliances in almost all regions of Java. Many great warriors began to be interested in joining him. Especially with people who also equally dislike Prabu Jabang Wiyagra. As long as it was reliable, the Asih Patriarch would accept them with pleasure. And will not hesitate to give them an important position.
The rules of the picky Patri Asih, it has instilled hatred in the hearts of its own followers. Patri Asih also realized this. But he didn't bother with it at all. Of course Patri Asih is also preparing everything, if until his followers try to betray, or to kill him. And that he had prepared before building this group.
The Asih Patri had always implanted a sentence in his brain,
"Nobody can be trusted in this world."
Patri Asih has intelligence and dexterity above the average of a woman. Especially if he had already used his magic, then the hitmen who came to him would have felt a hard time. Most of them died horribly. Patri Asih has understood very well, if in fact there are so many traitors in his own group. But then again, the Asih Patri was a stubborn person.
Feeling that he was already the most powerful person, Patri Asih had never felt the slightest worry, because he was already convinced that there was no one who could match his prowess. It is true, all this time Patri Asih has never lost at the hands of his enemies. Except with Prabu Jabang Wiyagra. Only Prabu Jabang Wiyagra was able to face the power possessed by Patri Asih. For the rest, no one had been able to defeat him.

The Royal Palace of Wiyagra Malela
"I've heard it completely from the leader of the soldier, Ki Mangku. Nor can I blame them completely, for they are merely defending themselves, and keeping the trust I have given them. Then, what is teaching in your mind Ki Mangku?" Ask Prabu Jabang Wiyagra to Mangku Cendrasih.
"Before I beg Gusti Prabu's forgiveness. The servant was only worried that there would be a much bigger battle, Gusti. Especially with the loss of the Pelvis, small groups under his leadership, will form their own groups. And these bandits are gonna be harder to find, Gusti Prabu."
"Yes. What you said is true Ki Mangku. But as I said, our troops are only defending themselves. Although their ways were too cruel, but it was one thing worth being proud of. They wholeheartedly kept the trust I had given, and carried it out well."
"Gusti Prabu. What is Gusti Prabu's next plan? I asked for his advice, Gusti."
Prabu Jabang Wiyagra always gave advice to Mangku Cendrasih to stop his search for missing warriors. Prabu Jabang Wiyagra will take over the task. Prabu Jabang Wiyagra already knows where they are hidden. Bamantara, Utari Gita, and the other warriors are still alive. It was just that they were in a state that was not okay, and desperately needed help.
Prabu Jabang Wiyagra suspected that they were hidden by someone who had extraordinary magic. So Prabu Jabang Wiyagra did not want if something happened to Mangku Cendrasih. Because Mangku Cendrasih is still needed in the Kingdom of Wiyagra Malela, to train the troops of Prabu Jabang Wiyagra. Without being able to resist, Mangku Cendrasih finally accepted the order. He will no longer be assigned to the search. Now he is only required to take care of the troops in Padepokan Ageng Reksa Pati.
