THE BLOOD OF JAVA
JAVANESE BLOOD: EPISODE 350
Patri Asih did not know that all his supporters in the palace of the Kingdom of Wiyagra Malela, had been massacred by Maha Patih Lare Damar and the troops of Prabu Jabang Wiyagra. In fact, the massacre of the traitors, has now penetrated out of the territory of the palace of the Kingdom of Wiyagra Malela. Many people mysteriously die. Their bodies were left in their place. That is certainly done by Prabu Jabang Wiyagra's own troops. The goal is clear, which is to reduce the strength of opponents Prabu Jabang Wiyagra.
There are so many people who have committed treason to the King. They all never thought, if there would be someone who uncovers the secret. And that guy is Bajur. A bandit who was always underestimated by others. Once one of these traitors, now Bajur and all his men have decided to devote themselves to Prabu Jabang Wiyagra. To make up for all the mistakes they've ever made.
With all the services he had provided, for the security of the Kingdom of Wiyagra Malela, Prabu Jabang Wiyagra had actually released them from all punishment, for all the wrongs they had ever committed. However, Bajur and his men still feel less about it. He still felt guilty towards everyone in the Viyagra Malela Kingdom. Because there have been many crimes that Bajur has done with his men. This guy is actually a good guy. It's just that he's in the wrong place.
If only Bajur would listen to input from his parents, maybe now Bajur has become a high-ranking soldier, in the Kingdom of Wiyagra Malela. In the past, while still alive, Bajur parents really hope, if his son can enter the ranks of the army of the Kingdom of Wiyagra Malela. But a great shame, because Bajur's age is old enough, Bajur prefers to be a fighter. He studied with someone who was also black magic. From here Bajur began to know the world of crime. And it should end up being a bandit.
Luckily, Bajur's heart is not as hard as his physique. Bajur turns out to have a great sense of caring, and great compassion for others. So that his work as a bandit is not suitable. But back to the necessities of life. The very demanding necessities of life have also demanded that he do bad things. Bajur then began recruiting people around him, to join into a group. And it turns out, they also have the same thoughts and feelings. Both have feelings of not being heart, to others.
The nature of a bandit, can not enter the soul of Bajur and his men. They will always give relief to their victims. A trait that a bandit should not have. But this has persisted for many years, during the reign of Prabu Jabang Wiyagra. After a long time, Bajur finally had the courage to make a change. He no longer wanted to be trapped in the black world. He wants to live as a good husband and father, for his children and his wife. Who for many years faithfully accompanied him.
That morning, Bajur and his men gathered in the garden of the royal palace of Wiyagra Malela Kingdom, along with Maha Patih Lare Damar. They share stories with each other. About the past that Bajur and all his men have experienced. Maha Patih Lare Damar also tells about himself, who used to be a hunchback, which is often the subject of ridicule of people. Until a miracle came, which made him turn into a normal human being, like humans in general. His body is strong, and mighty.
"But there's one thing that seems to be missing from me." Maha Patih Lare Damar.
"What is Gusti Patih?" Ask Bajur.
"I used to not be this cruel. In fact, even with animals, I don't dare to hurt him. In fact, I have been attacked by wild animals a lot. But now, let alone the beast, with man alone, I dare to do anything."
"Everyone will change in time, Gusti Patih. As a Maha Patih, of course, cruelty is needed. Moreover, now the number of troops Prabu Jabang Wiyagra has reached millions of people. And Gusti Patih held them all. If Gusti Patih remains as he once was, perhaps people will doubt Gusti Patih's leadership." Bajur.
"Yes. You were right Bajur. After all, Kakang Prabu did want me like this. Cruel, and not feeling. But the atrocities I committed are reasonable. I will not be cruel to just anyone. If that person is evil, then I will show my cruelty. But if that person is good, then I can be better than him."
"Yes. That is one of the strong reasons, why Kakang Prabu Jabang Wiyagra wants to rule over the land of Java. Because he doesn't like to see the poor. He doesn't like to see others miserable. He does not like to see oppression. He did not like to see slavery. Although cruel, and I do not like the way he does, but he has a very noble purpose. Seeing the behavior of his enemies who were already senseless, how could Kakang Prabu face them with reason? Aye?"
"Just Gusti Patih. I am sure Gusti Prabu Jabang Wiyagra will be able to rule in Java completely. The servant, along with all the servants, had sworn allegiance to Gusti Prabu Jabang Wiyagra. Even if later the servant only becomes a servant, the servant will still feel happy, because it can spend the rest of the servant's life, for a very noble person."
"You're not just gonna be a waitress, Bajur."
Suddenly Prabu Jabang Wiyagra came to them.
"Gusti Prabu."
"You're not just going to be a servant. You'd be much more deserving of being part of my army. Like what your parents dreamt of, during their lifetime."
Bajur was surprised by the speech of Prabu Jabang Wiyagra. Bajur has never told his life story in the past, to Prabu Jabang Wiyagra. But Prabu Jabang Wiyagra already knew it first.
"Hamba would like to say a big thank you, Gusti Prabu. The servant asks nothing. I just want to be a better person. I want to devote myself to Gusti Prabu Jabang Wiyagra. I want to use the rest of my life to be a better person."
"Yes. I'm also happy with your presence in this place. I know, you've never liked what you've been doing all this time. It's just the circumstances that force you to do it, isn't it? I understand Bajur. From now on, you and all your men will not be on the streets anymore, just to deprive others of their rights. Now you are part of the army of the Almighty."
".....Forever you and your men will be my loyal servants. I believe that you will not commit treason. I hope you don't disappoint me."
Bajur and his men were very happy, after they got a badge, the Maha Wira Army. Now, they have all been officially appointed as Prabu Jabang Wiyagra's personal bodyguards. Forever, Bajur and his men will devote themselves, to Prabu Jabang Wiyagra. Sometimes they will also be given time to meet their families. After that, they will return to the palace of the Kingdom of Wiyagra Malela, to carry out their duties.
