Gladi war is taking place on this vast field. Each holding a weapon to hit each other and fight, the sound of a weapon that clang loudly became evidence of the enormity of the training that was being carried out.
Candani observed one after another those on the training field. At the very front stood neatly lined up the leaders of the demon race. Fire demon elders, monkey demons, king gendruwo and his army, demon guards cult places, magic demons, stealth kings, stealth kings, the evil and greedy characters join forces with Segara Pitu Kingdom, working together to destroy the power of Segaralaya Kingdom.
Candani, along with Lintang Samudera, and the young king of serpents, settles near an old well that is no longer used, which is near the training field of the stealth nation. It was here that they had made a promise with one of the demon king's envoys who was also a disciple of Master Yasa Rasendriya.
As night fell, someone stepped quietly. "Rear Latitude Ocean," said the demon who came. "It's me, the Astula demon from the Demon Kingdom at Mount Pandan Wangi.
"Of Astula, what are you doing here?"
"I was ordered by the Demon King of Mount Pandan Wangi to help the Kingdom of Segaralaya. Here I was undercover and joining forces with the other demon soldiers."
"Are you here by yourself, Demon Astula?"
"I'm not alone. There are a thousand soldiers from Mount Pandan Wangi who blend in with other stealth forces, we are given the task to become spies." Astula's demon paused his words. "Even you have been kissed by the dogs of the investigator. You should immediately go or eat this fruit, this fruit is able to disguise the air of your body."
"Candani, how is it continued or returned?"
"Kakang Lintang. It has been a responsibility to reach this place. I need to find out what kind of stratagem the demons used to destroy my kingdom."
"Siluman Astula, do you know what kind of agreement happened between King Suteja Thani of Segara Pitu and the demon?" ask Candani Paramita.
"All the results of the investigation are in our leadership. He will submit the results of the investigation that has been conducted. But now it's good to eat this fruit. So as not to be smelled by the guard dogs here. Their smell is very sharp. And rub this leaf over your body, it smells really bad, but it's gonna help."
The three uninvited guests immediately ate the fruit that the Demon Astula had given them, and applied the foul-smelling leaves to their bodies.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Astula's demon brought his three guests to meet the stealth senopati from Mount Pandan Wangi. The results of the investigation they had collected were written in a cipher written on several pitches.
"There are intruders...there are intruders..there are intruders," the boisterous sounds of the firemen filled the field. The team of stealth investigation dogs barked crowded, racing each other to explore other scents that flow in their smell.
A cluster of flames scattered around the entire training area of the demon warriors. The stealth soldiers ran scatter, and some followed the steps of the investigation dogs.
Candani, the Ocean Latitude, and the young king of snakes, immediately ran fast against the darkness that became bright due to the fire light that sprung from the bodies of fire demons.
"Who's this that's been reporting our arrival?" ask Candani Paramita. The three of them continued running while occasionally hiding.
"This must have been a spy from a tree demon. But take it easy the stealth intruder from Mount Pandan Wangi is still safe."
"That's the easy thing. Our meeting was held in a dead well. The trees that were there I checked, they were all native to the tree, not the finished form of the tree demon."
They resumed delayed footsteps. The Ocean's latitude this time led in front and Candani Paramita was behind the snake's young king. However the young king of snakes should not be harmed, the existence of the young king of snakes is the source of the strength of the entire snake people.
The stealth intruders who come from Mount Pandan Wangi come running around looking for the existence of Candani with his friends. They try to distract the fire demons when they are approaching the hiding of the intended target.
Sometimes Candani along with the Latitude Ocean and also the young king of snakes, had to crawl around avoiding the pursuers. Even a few times they had to creep. The words of the intruder continued to be heard.
"Kanjeng Ratu Sanura" said an unknown face.
"Who are you? You know me?"
"Include my name Bhanu. I'm the son of a descendant of the relationship between gendruwo and humans. I'm Nyai's adopted son Niti Padmarini, owner of an eight-petalled white rose garden."
"Bhan. How did you become Nyai Niti Padmarini's adopted son?"
"The gendruwo do not want to accept me who is half-gendruwo and half-human, the humans also do not want to accept me, the humans are afraid when they see me. Out of pity, Nyai Niti Padmarini took me in and raised me up to be an adopted child, taught me to speak and behave like a human being, and gave me a variety of wisdom." Bhanu was silent for a moment. "And I am now given the duty to protect Kanjeng Ratu Sanura and his entourage. Nyai Niti said Padmarini by helping Queen Sanura Kanjeng, later when Nyai Niti is gone, then Kanjeng Ratu will allow me to serve."
"Is there anything that Nyai Niti Padmarini has left?"
"There's." Bhanu took out a box and some eight-petalled white roses to Queen Sanura or Candani Paramita.
Candani opens the contents of the box and receives the roses brought by Bhanu. "Now what do you want?"
"Hamba just wants to be useful in the way of goodness."
"Alright Bhanu. I let you serve me. And for the next time, you're under my husband's leadership in the Latitude Ocean. For now, your first assignment is to get us out of this place."
Agilely the child gendruwo Bhanu split the road and deceive the view of the pursuing demons. The twin trees that became the entrance were already in plain sight. Quickly the four people came out from the demon realm.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
The twin trees became trees in general. Standing in the middle of the shade of the other trees. Only the difference, there is no animal that would stop at the two trees.
Gendruwo Bhanu's son again lost his form. The Ocean Star assigned the child gendruwo Bhanu to be a shadow bodyguard during the infiltration.
Candani and her traveling companions plus the wandering troops, rushed to tidy up their belongings. The sound of horse footsteps split the night, running in pursuit of time, out of the forest as quickly as possible. They passed through the village one to the other, avoiding the pursuit of the demon race.
