Munding - Legend of the Wolf Fighter

Chapter 125 - The End of Redemption

A few months after Munding returned to Sumber Rejo, Asma increasingly visited and spent time at Nurul's house. But he never once stayed again. Nurul's husband is now home. Where should he sleep if he stays?

Munding who from the beginning was not interested in going to school and obtaining a diploma, initially did not want to continue his High School, but after Nurul and Asma worked together to force Munding back to school, Munding did not want to continue his studies, Munding continued his schooling.

As time went on, Nurul felt that they could no longer live in a house with Nurul's parents. After they were both married, finally after whining and asking permission to the Father and Mother, Munding and Nurul were allowed to start building their own house.

Initially, Munding and Nurul wanted to build a house in Sumber Rejo, near the house of Father and Mother, but they recommended that Munding and Nurul build their dream house in Sukorejo.

Munding was a little worried, he had a dark history in his hometown. And as much as possible Munding does not want to go back there. But the words of his father-in-law that night are remembered.

“You can hate your Mom or your Mom, but your Dad? Your Mbah? Your buyut? They were all born and raised in Sukorejo. Who will pass on the houses and hereditary rice fields belonging to them all.”

“In addition, you are there to make changes. Shia. Mushola. Teach the people around to be good at religion. So that no child will have a childhood like you. Know Le?”

Munding finally obeyed his Father-in-law.

Munding then set up his house next to a wooden house for generations from his father's family that he still let as before. He also made a small mosque where Nurul taught to teach to small children in the surrounding environment.

But because Munding and Nurul were teenagers, they hired a housekeeper to help Nurul every day.

Munding and Nurul live their lives happily, until one day, Nurul receives a chat message from her mother. He asked Nurul to take Munding to their home in Sumber Rejo.

Munding and Nurul obey their parents' request.

When Munding and his wife reached the house of the Father at Sumber Rejo, there was a man over 45 years old who sat with the Father on the front porch. The man smiled when he saw Munding coming with his wife.

“Assalamualaikum,” Greetings Munding and Nurul.

“Waalaikumussalam,” replied the Father and the middle-aged man.

“Sit here Le,” said Father to Munding while pointing to one place in front of the two of them, “Nduk, make your husband drink to the back huh?” said Father to Nurul.

After Nurul disappeared to the back, Mr. smiled and introduced the man next to him, “this is his name Sulaiman, he is my adopted brother and comes from Sulawesi,” said Mr. Yai, “you don't call him Mr Lek, call him Om, understand Le?” continued.

“Iya Sir,” replied Munding while kissing the hand of a man named Sulaiman who turned out to be Mr. Yai's adoptive sister.

“Call Om Leman aja,” said Sulaiman softly while chuckling at Munding.

Soon the three of them told me about many things and laughed on the front porch of the house, until finally he said something while half joking but made Munding shocked half dead, “later let the Leman who pointed at you, what does manifestation mean.”

After performing the Ashar prayer, Sulaiman also resigned, but he was detained by Mr. Yai, “Leman, I was talking to my son about manifestation.”

Sulaiman took a breath, “Bang, not that I don't want to, but I'm not like a brother who is good at educating students. I'm not good at words like brother,” Sulaiman protested.

“I didn't ask you to teach the Munding, I told you to show him,” said Mr. Yai.

Sulaiman also gave up losing. After that Mr. Yai and Munding followed Sulaiman to the kitchen. At that time Bu Nyai and Nurul were still frying tempe in the kitchen. Seeing the three men enter the kitchen, Ms. Nyai scrunched her forehead towards her husband.

Pak Yai whispered something to his wife shortly afterwards, Bu Nyai invited Nurul out of the kitchen. After the two disappeared from the kitchen, Sulaiman rolled up his long-sleeved shirt.

Munding was shocked when he saw the man's arm, because it was filled with abstract tattoos that started from the wrist up and Munding did not know if the tattoo stopped there.

Pak Yai said slowly, “all Leman's body is tattooed, except neck up, wrists and palms, ankles and soles.”

Without making any preparations, Leman then put his hand into the hot oil and flipped the fry over with his hand. Munding was silent as he watched it.

After twice doing that, Leman then raised his hand from the hot oil unharmed then re-fixed his rolled up sleeve to cover the tattoo on his arm.

“Terus?” said Mr. Yai.

Leman just shrugged and fell silent, but before long he looked happy and said to Munding, “mahluk is mortal, which remains only the Creator. So it is only natural that all creation will again be destroyed because of its mortal nature.”

Munding did not understand the meaning of the words of Om Leman. But he knew it was important to him, so Munding remembered it in his heart.

Looking at the confused Munding, “I told you not to Bang? I am not good at educating students,” said Leman while scratching his head.

“OK lah,” said Pak Yai gave up resigned.

Shortly thereafter Om Leman also paid his respects to the family of Pak Yai and continued his journey somewhere. Munding and Nurul decided to stay at Pak Yai's house that night.

But Munding continues to imagine when Om Leman was doing the debusional action. Is the manifestation stage actually back towards ‘debus’ and ‘imun’ you were asked by Munding to Pak Yai?

Wasn't it then, Mr. Yai refused outright the science of such a model?

And Munding spent the night with a thousand questions of explanation from his Father-in-law.
