The Seven Gates of the Universe
The Terms of the First King


Episode 296's


“You guys I gathered you here to talk about a very important thing that has to do with this kingdom. Maybe you remember what happened a few years ago when I was almost killed by the betrayal of one of the concubines. Not only will it kill the king, even the concubine has killed the empress and also the crown prince of this kingdom.”


Almost simultaneously the king's confidants gathered in the secret room nodded their heads. All those who were there were those who gathered in the valley of hell while the king was still there. But no one knows the agreement agreed between the king and Chandra Darpa.


At the secret meeting place the king told me everything that happened at that time including when the king persuaded the fire tribe to help him. The king promised a reward for what if the king succeeds will award the title of crown prince to the chairman of the fire tribe at that time. Of course the king's words made all those who were there very surprised. There were even some of them to the point of saying the King did not think long.


Aware of his overly presumptuous remarks, the official knelt down to ask forgiveness from the King. The king himself although he was angry, but he did not extend the business let alone to give the punishment. Then the King asked the officials for their opinion on how best to deal with the problems at hand.


Among the officials who were there were divided into two different opinions. Some argue the King must keep the promise he has said. Because the promise of a King is a destiny that must be fulfilled. While others considered the promise unnecessary, it was impossible for the blood of the king's descendants to be passed on by anyone else. And it is this last opinion that most officials hold.


“Force the noble servant, although the concubine had revolted against the king's majesty, but all were not related at all to the prince Cata Ararya. He is the only son of the majesty whose position is Syah as the successor of the majesty,” said one of the officials.


Almost all the offices in the place confirmed his remarks. The king was worried about making a decision. Finally they advised the king to ask the opinion of the previous king, the father of the present king.


The first king is still alive, he secluded himself in a hill to practice a science of worship. The first king was named Saka Prawara. He was the one who was crowned king after successfully overthrowing the previous kingdom.


Saka Prawara did not complete his reign. When his son reached the age of thirty years, he also gave the throne of his kingdom. He himself was alone to deepen his science of canuragannya. He is trying to improve his magic in order to rival his best friend named Nirwasita. Indeed, from a young age the two always compete who is stronger in terms of science.


The Southern King briefed Candra darpa and asked for time for the king to meet with his father. Chandra Darpa did not mind and agreed to the king's request to wait a few days. The next day the second-generation southern king departed by his chariot from the palace to the hill where the first king was to leave.


It only took one day and one night the journey finally the king arrived at the hermitage of King Saka Prawara. Although the place is called a hermitage, but the buildings there seem magnificent, like a small palace. The place was also guarded by several guards who seemed to have low abilities.


Arriving at the gate, the second generation Southern King was immediately greeted with respect by the guards there. Even so, the King could not go directly inside without the first king's orders or approval. After getting information from the king, the guard went inside to report to the owner of the residence. Soon the guard reappeared and said the king was willing to meet.


The second generation South King immediately stepped towards the place where the king of Saka Prawara was accompanied by guards. In a room that was quite spacious and luxurious there was a white jade the size of a dining table. Above him an old man dressed in all white sat on him in a mediocre position.


“Ananda Cata Barmana facing father. Please forgive if the arrival of ananda disturbs the calm of Ayahanda,” said the king of the second generation south while kneeling before the old man who was on the jade.


“Wake up, what's wrong with you making you have to interrupt my break here?” asked the First King sounding a little dislike of the presence of the second King.


“Hmmmm.. say!” the First King responded to his son's words.


Then the Second King named Cata Barmana also said what he experienced in the past. He told about the rebellion carried out by one of his concubines who collaborated with several silat experts. As a result of the rebellion he had to flee, but still chased even nearly died if not saved by the fire tribe leader who was young.


The second Southern King then recounted also as he asked the young fire tribe chief to help him reclaim power in the palace. He also said the reward he offered was the title of crown prince who would later become his successor as king.


“What a fool you are Barmana! How can you risk the throne of the kingdom for your incompetence,” the First King snapped.


The second king Cata Barmana just fell silent not daring to raise his head before the father. The first king was very angry at what the second king had done. A moment both of them fell silent, drowning in their respective daydreams.


“Hahaha..”.


Suddenly the first Southern King laughed. This made the second generation South King become very confused. He waited patiently for what his father would say.


“Good you promised them that too. This might be the way for me to reach my goal. Opponents of the Science of the Seven Gates of the Universe. Hahaha.this time I will surpass Nirwasita. Hahaha.”


The Southern King still did not understand what his father was talking about. But he tried to smile. He believes his father already has a way to solve this problem.


“Barmana, tell the young fire tribe chief that you will appoint him as crown prince and will be king as long as he does something for us.”


“What is father?”


“Kill all fire tribes!”


“Ahh. And what good are we to have him exterminate all the tribes of fire,” asked the second Southern King not to understand.


“You just apply those terms to him. And tell me that's the condition that I the king first proposed. You explain everything to him as well, since it is impossible for the fire tribe to be the king's successor, he will be recognized as your lost son, and his wife is not your son. And no one should know including his people the tribe of fire,” replied the First Southern King.


Seriate..
