Although not afraid of Arimbi, but Dartama does not want to deal with Arimbi. Because he had heard the news of the bird about the background of Arimbi and his family.
Finally Darutama was forced to leave with his arrogant feelings, followed by other middle students who became his subordinates.
After the Dartama group went far, Arimbi approached Puguh.
"What's your name little brother ?" ask Arimbi.
"My name is Puguh,mbakyu," replied Puguh.
"Now go back to your cottage. One day I want to have a conversation with you," said Arimbi as his eyes stared intently at Puguh.
He just nodded and said, "Thank you."
"Thank you for your help, mbakyu. My name is Good Padmana. Commonly called Den Bagus," said Den Bagus.
Hearing Den Bagus speak, Arimbi only glanced at a glance.
"Now go !" arimbi said as he turned his body and left the place.
Puguh and Den Bagus still stand sculpting until the shadow of Arimbi's body is lost in the corner of the field.
After a while, the two of them finally got up and walked home to their cottage.

After the encounter, Puguh and Den Bagus met with Arimbi quite often.
Seeing Arimbi more familiar with Puguh, and more concerned about Puguh, Den Bagus Padmana felt a little unhappy. So finally Den Bagus Padmana decided to join the Kaneko group.
Because he felt it was impossible to join the Dartama group. In addition to having had a feud, also in the group Dartama there Wirayoga who had joined first.
Arimbi himself had been an inner disciple for about three years. She was one of the few female disciples who had made it into the best disciple group.
He is actually a supple and sociable student and his friend quite a lot. But on a personal level, he is very closed. There is very little information about him and his family background.
But among certain disciples who were curious about his background, rumors circulated that he was the son of a Demang whose position was very close to the Duke even rumored his family was still relatives with the Duke.
That was what the other disciples were looking after so much, as not to make trouble with him. Although actually for the level of his martial ability is also among the best students.
At the time of meeting for the first time, Arimbi was interested and curious about the ability and power level of Puguh. Especially seeing Puguh who still does not want to join any group. Therefore, Arimbi approached Puguh and wanted to know more about Puguh. So impressed, Puguh is more likely to join Arimbi and other students who do not want to join the Dartama group or group Kaneko.

One day, Arimbi and several other female students were called by Ki Ragajampi, one of the teachers of the Tiger Beetle.
Ki Ragajampi is the teacher of Padepokan Tiger Beetles who is responsible for the availability of drugs as well as those who perform treatment.
In one of the huts, which is used as a place to store medicines as well as a place to live Ki Ragajampi.
In Pondok Ki Ragajampi, in addition to Arimbi and several women from the inner disciples, there were also several main disciples who were also called.
It has become an activity Padepokan Tiger Beetles, inner students and main students, sometimes getting assignments from teachers or Padepokan administrators.
Arimbi and three other female inner disciples, get the task to find some flowers and leaves from certain plants that will be processed into medicinal herbs. While the two female main disciples are tasked to find the roots and bark of a particular tree.
After they received a record of the name of the medicinal ingredient they were about to look for, they immediately departed.
The departure of Arimbi and several other female inner disciples, it was also known by Dartama. Darutama, who is still feeling abetted by the events of the past few days, is looking for an opportunity to be able to deal with Puguh and some inner disciples who still do not want to enter one of the groups.
So that once finished training, Dartama deliberately looking for Puguh.
After searching for a while, Dartama finally found Puguh who was packing his training equipment with other students.
Darutama deliberately alone looking for Puguh, so as not to be too flashy.
"Hey little boy ! What about my offer to the day after tomorrow ?" tanya Darutama while approaching Puguh.
In his heart, Puguh was surprised by the sudden arrival of Dartama.
"Which offer, brother ?" He asked back that.
"Rather than you join the girl judes group, you better come with me," said Darutama again.
"Sorry brother. I don't join anyone's group" replied Puguh.
Compared to his cocky taste, actually Dartama is more interested in inviting Puguh willing to enter into his group.
Like Arimbi, Dartama is also interested in the ability of energy in Puguh. In Darutama's observation, the age of Puguh has not been ten years. But in his young age, Puguh was able to defeat the more senior disciple who became his subordinate. If Puguh is willing to enter his group, it will increase the strength of his group.
"Try thinking again. I'll wait for your answer until the day after tomorrow. Before that judes girl comes back from her job !" dartama said firmly.
Then Darutama walked closer to Puguh until only half a meter away.
"If you refuse my offer, I will beat you up, to bring back the pain you inflicted on my men !" whispered Darutama while staring at Puguh.
"But, for introductions, I'd like to try out your skills !" connect Dartama while lifting a right-footed kick.
Puguh who just bent to tie the bundle of training equipment, did not have time to avoid the arrival of the kick because of the position of the two of them are very close while Puguh is still in a bent position. So that Puguh only had time to hold his breath and drain his energy into his chest area.
Buuuggghhh !!!
Sreeet !!!
Dartama's right leg kick is right about Puguh's chest. Make Puguh pushed back up to a few steps, but in the position of the horse that does not change.
In his heart Darutama was shocked. The back of his right leg was sore after hitting Puguh's chest. And that makes him more curious, even though Puguh pushed back because of his kick, but his horse did not budge. Though Puguh in a bent position.
Meanwhile, after the movement pushed to the back of his body stopped, Puguh immediately stood upright facing Dartama with his legs slightly open to the side. His left hand raised the bundle of equipment which he then attached to his left shoulder.
Darutama who was increasingly surprised because Puguh like not affected by his kick, once he saw Puguh standing upright, immediately shot towards Puguh. His right hand slammed into his chest.
Buuuggghhh !!!
Dartama's right fist hit Puguh's chest, causing Puguh to take two steps back until both feet re-formed the horse.
Darutama's right hand shook slightly.
"This child has a very strong body defense" said Dartama in his heart.
"I think enough of our introductions. I'll wait for your answer until the day after tomorrow !" said Darutama who then immediately darted away.
