Shivaratri: Destroy the Darkness

Trying Strategy

Chased by time, that's what Ganendra felt. He had to save two people at once. Somehow the fate of Princess Nalini at this time. Ganendra hoped that the Princess would survive.

In Pancapratala, the fifth layer of soil.

Princess Nalini, asleep in a room. His sharp hands with his long claws stroked his face gently. Slowly Princess Nalini opened her eyes. He immediately tiptoed while looking at Ditya Kalandaru was staring at him with instinct. The Princess retreated and leaned against the corner of the room wall. He looked at Ditya Kalandaru with a horrified look.

“A...what did you do to me? Don't try to touch me!” shouted Princess Nalini.

He prepared to channel the power in his legs. Be on standby if at any time Ditya Kalandaru prey on it.

Ditya Kalandaru, just commenting on a thin smile. Sit on the side of the bed.

“Didn't you like me now, because my face turned ugly like this? Nalini....” said Ditya Kalandaru in a slow voice.

Hearing his name being called with such a tone of voice. He was no stranger to his ears. Then Ditya Kalandaru pulled out a shoulder blade from behind his belt. Nalini's eyes instantly widened.

Flashbacks

Once upon a time, Sri Mahadana raised a son named Dananjaya. Dananjaya showed his prowess of becoming a Knight of Saka. Dananjaya and Putri Nalini grew up together since childhood. The seed of love grows between the two.

“The back, this shoulder cheek is proof that my love is only for you.” said Putri Nalini while leaning on Dananjaya's shoulder.

A shoulder blade made of pure gold, awarded to Dananjaya. The young man smiled and clasped Princess Nalini's hand.

But that happiness did not last long. Dananjaya is an ambitious man who wants even more power. That's when Kalimakara came. Offering fellowship and promising to give Dananjaya the desired power. But that power can only be gained. If Dananjaya wants to be transformed into a Ditya. Dananjaya who wants more power. Agree to that and in the end turn into Ditya Kalandaru.

End Flashback

Princess Nalini stared in disbelief. That the man she once loved, had turned into a Ditya. Princess Nalini just shut her mouth.

Until the voice of Ditya Kalandaru, “but I don't care what you think of me. You better help me by being Ditya's birthplace. If my seed is planted in your heart. Then the seed of Ditya mixed with the blood of a princess like you. Then will give birth to Ditya who is superior Ha!Ha!Ha!”

Princess Nalini no longer recognized this man she once loved. In the past, in his eyes a Dananjaya was a good man.

“I will not be willing. Become a birth container Ditya. You better kill me!” shouted Princess Nalini loudly.

“Ha!Ha!Ha! I don't need your approval.”

The sound of Ditya Kalandaru's laughter resounded on the walls made of earth. I heard a loud voice in his ear.

“Woi! Stupidly asked! Come outside! There is something important I want to say!”

Princess Nalini recognized the voice. The sound came from…

“Ganendra!” call Princess Nalini hard. He was about to step his foot.

But Ditya Kalandaru held his hand.

“You're not going anywhere!”

The slap!

A punch hit Princess Nalini's shoulder. Made him unconscious. Ditya Kalandaru then put him to bed. After that was heard, The Ditya growled many times. A black beam surrounded his body and brought Ditya Kalandaru out of Pancapratala.

At the place where the other day Ditya Kalandaru invited Ganendra to make an exchange. Balin looks scared.

“Ganendra, why are we even here? Are you going to challenge Ditya Kalandaru?”

At the same time Ditya Kalandaru appeared there. Snarling with a scary voice.

“How dare you yell and disturb me! Do you want to take lives? Ha!Ha!”

“Hemm, honestly not. I'm looking for you because there are two important things.” said Ganendra.

“Say immediately.”

“How about Nalini? You don't make it food, do you?”

There was a loud laughter from Ditya Kalandaru.

“What kind of petty mind is that. I'll tell you the good news. Princess Nalini I will make the birth container of Ditya. I'll plant the seed in Ha's womb!Ha!”

“Hiiiiiii...ba...how is this?” balin asked Ganendra could not imagine Princess Nalini would be used as a container.

Ganendra clenched his hands tightly. He's really running out of time like this.

“Then say what the second thing?”

A smile fell on the corner of Ganendra's lips.

“Do you know about Tirta Amerta? the water of immortality belongs to the gods. I found out there was a stone inscription that gives details on where tirta amerta.”

Ditya Kalandaru listened carefully. It's true. If the tirta amerta can give immortality to those who drink it. Ditya Kalandaru's mind started to drift. In his hand there are already Bunga Wijayakusuma and Princess Nalini. If plus get tirta amerta, then it is not wrong again. He will be immortal and have more power than the gods.

“Then?” ask Ditya Kalandaru.

“I met with Ditya Gorawangsa. He asked me to find the missing piece of stone inscription. I think he wants to rule that tirta amerta by himself. Remembering, he asked me to look for him instead. It wasn't you who was told by him.” replied Ganendra throwing a bait.

Ditya Kalandaru again growled.

“Do you know, Kalimakara? Apparently he was the one who kept the missing piece of stone inscription. I think he also wants to master the tirta amerta alone. Seeing your reaction, it seems like it is also kept a secret from you.” continued Ganendra using his shrewdness as a master con man in his world.

“Bigger!!! I'll finish you off!” Ditya Kalandaru growled loudly.

Then it turned into a black ray and went out of nowhere. Ganendra immediately invited Balin to find an entrance to Pancapratala. It might be around there. Remembering Ditya Kalandaru appeared there.

Ditya Kalandaru immediately shot to Gowa Barong. Gowa Barong is the palace of Ditya Gorawangsa.

“Ditya Gorawangsa! Come outside! You're the same as Kalimakara. You want to win by yourself!” yelled Ditya Kalandaru loudly.

Not long after, Ditya Gorawangsa came out. His face is no less sad.

“Bigger! Mixed ditya do not know the lucky! You want to win by yourself, too. Getting the Wijayakusuma Flower secretly. Now you also want to get Tirta Amerta alone?!”

Roaaar!!!!

Both of them fought one on one. Make the ground around him shake. The fight of two Ditya who had an unusual power shook the surrounding forest. Not far from there Soma and Parama were watching. Both of them threw smiles and nodded their heads.

Not long after, they left the place. After seeing Ditya Kalandaru and Ditya Gorawangsa fighting each other. The strategy carried out by Ganendra proved to be effective. Before going to Ditya Kalandaru. He returned to Medangwantu. Asking Soma and Parama to meet Ditya Gorawangsa. Saying the exact same to what he said to Ditya Kalandaru.

Little by little Ganendra began to understand. Since reading the stone inscriptions in Luweng Bholo. The Ditya still pursue the tirta amerta that can give immortality to this day. Actually Ganendra did not know if this trick would work. Given that he has not fully known Ditya Kalandaru and Ditya Gorawangsa.

But whatever way he'll do it. To save his friends. Including using sheep fighting strategies.
