NOT KEN AROK

The Mystery 1

He then took my machete and intended to finish it off to me, I could only give it up while praying that a miracle would help me.

Sure enough, suddenly, I opened my mouth and came out hundreds of bats which then attacked Witantra and his men.

Wintantra cried out in pain as the bat bit him, when they were off guard I immediately ran away leaving them.

"Until when will you become a robber like this Gilang," said Aki Janitra welcome Gilang in front of his house

"I don't know when Jay is, but I'm doing all this to survive because I don't have a job or a house to live in" Gilang immediately put the loot on the table

"If you continue like this when can you change the destiny of your ancestor Gilang," said Jay to make me confused

"My ancestors, who are my ancestors, because as far as I am I am only an orphan who has no one!" I'm upset

"You are the son of a convicted robber, Dhanu your foster father also died as a robber, why are you not aware as well" Jay replied

"So I mean Aki, my ancestor was a robber and I must change must not follow in their footsteps!"

"True Gilang, but your real ancestor was a founder of Singosari kingdom, who was also a robber. But he can turn his fate into a king with his strength and hard work, but unfortunately his ambition to gain power made him make a mistake that made him and his descendants must receive a curse from the magic kris of Empu Gandring who helped him get the throne Singosari as well as become an angel of death for himself and the seventh its derivatives. Therefore Gilang now is the time for you to change, "Aki Janitra said trying to explain everything to Gilang

"Actually you're who Aki is why do you seem to know who I really am?" ask me for wonder

Aki Janitra just smiled and then smoked her cigarette.

"I'm just an ordinary hermit who got Ken Arok's idea to guide you to become his successor" Aki Janitra's reply puzzled me, how could a person like me be a descendant of the very famous king Singasari who gave birth to the great kings of Majapahit.

"You can believe it or not cross it, but according to kejawen science that I've learned all along you are the reincarnation of Ken Arok where you will live the good and bad karma that your ancestors have done," added Aki Janitra

"Don't joke Aki, in the teachings of Islam there is no such thing as reincarnation, so don't make it!" answer me while chuckling

"It's up to you to believe it or not, but don't you feel weird about the magic that you have, even though you're just a regular person, who has no advantages whatsoever, even martial arts you don't have, but you can always escape Death, right?" aki Janitra's question made me gradually trust her words.

The appearance of light from my mouth against Buto ijo and the bat that helped me against Ki Swantatra, indeed everything was unacceptable with common sense but maybe it was just a coincidence, or the Gusti of God who has helped me, because it is not yet time to die.

Because it keeps ringing Aki Janitra's words make me unable to sleep tonight. When the chickens started crowing and the dawn started to break, I immediately rushed to Mbah Karsono's house, not knowing what was on my mind at the moment that was clear I had to meet him to get answers to all my questions.

"Please enter," Mbah Karsono opened the door for me upon my arrival. With a wry smile the old man greeted me like he was welcoming a king.

"You must have met him, so you came to see me" Mbah Karsono said, bringing two cups of black coffee and putting it on the table.

"Monggo is appointed" said Aki Karsono

"Thank you Aki," I immediately scooped up the black coffee served to me

"Does Aki believe that I'm Ken Arok's incarnation?" ask me curious

"Aki Janitra, though,"

"Hmmm, spend your coffee later I will answer it," replied Mbah Karsono

After I finished my coffee Mbah Karsono took me to a place to leave his house.

Mbah asked me to go somewhere on his motorcycle. He paid me quite a distance of about five kilometers until we stopped at a temple Songgoriti located south of Mount Arjuno and north of Mount Kawi.

He then took me to a hot spring and bathed me there with his mystical rituals.

Miraculous This hot spring immediately turned into cold and cool water when I soaked there, Mbah Karsono did not forget to bring setaman flowers as a complement to my bath. When an old man was meditating and reciting a spell suddenly a man I had seen about to commit suicide came to us with a beautiful woman with him.

They then took me to a very magnificent Palace, which is almost similar to the palace in the colossal film Saur Sepuh or Brama Kumbara.

They greeted me with food and drink as if they were welcoming a king. After eating I was invited to a forest where I saw the man practicing martial arts.

"You must practice martial arts from now on, and I will teach you to become a warrior who will be respected in this area" he replied as he led me along with his every move.

A beautiful woman brought us drinks and fruits, while I was enjoying fruits I saw another woman peeking at our activities.

I seem to be very familiar with that woman, but why is she here.

I then tried to follow the woman as she left with a sour face full of disappointment.

I stopped when the woman entered a simple house and it was not long before I heard the sound of her crying breaking.

"Why are you so mean, he said I'm the only one in your heart, and you said I was the only woman you loved. But why are you married to Ken Dedes now" he said sadly

"When you promised me you'd come and propose to me if you're married now, you'd even meet me at Telih temple without me knowing that you're a man's husband,"

"Am I wrong if I still love you and hope to be your consort Kanda" remarks regret from the lady's money betrayed by her partner

The woman continued to cry and regretted what she had done with a married man.

Suddenly a man found the woman and comforted her.

"Dinda, why are you sad?"

"Why did you come here again Kanda, remember you're married so don't ever see me again" the woman encouraged Ken Arok who tried to comfort her

"I am indeed married to Ken Dedes, but all that is only because to realize my ambition to become King Singasari and have offspring who will become an influential King in this land of Java, my love is only for you, Dinda. No one can take your place in my heart, you are still the Queen in my heart. So you want to be my concubine?" ask Ken Arok
