Story of Maung Kulon

Grandpa Sakti's Story

Cakra Buana and Ling Zhi then followed the guard behind him. He was taken to a large room and was quite luxurious. When he arrived, the guard knocked on the door.

There was someone who said from inside there, after that the guard resigned. Cakra Buana and Ling Zhi. They're waiting for the door to open. It didn't take long, the door was already open and someone appeared from inside.

The two young warriors were surprised not to play. They're aghast. Is this a dream? No, this is not a dream. It´s real.

Cakra Buana was stunned for a while. How not? For the one who appears from within is a man whom he has known for a long time. I even met him a few times.

"Ka-kakek Sakti," said Cakra Buana still in astonishment.

"Hahaha .. we meet again Cakra. You kept your promise, "he said with a laugh.

"Come, come. Come in, please" he said.

Cakra Buana and Ling Zhi went inside. Both of them were still astonished and did not understand about what was happening at the moment. Isn't the Pair of Grandpa and Grandmother Sakti an independent warrior? Why are both of them here. Now the mind of Cakra Buana is filled with confusing questions.

"Followly, just sit down first. Let me tell you the truth" said the great-grandfather, who saw the bewildered look on the faces of the two young warriors.

Cakra Buana and Ling Zhi sat down. Grandpa Sakti then called the Grandmother Sakti. The old grandmother came with four cups of tea. Beside him was also a wine jug. Grandpa Sakti secretly turns out to like to get drunk too.

After providing treats for his guests, Grandma Sakti also joined there. The four of them sat on a bench with a round table made from a large teak tree.

They were embroidered to drink before starting the story. After embroidery, Grandpa Sakti also corrected his position. Then he told me.

"In the past, about five years ago, we –A pair of Grandparents and Grandma Sakti– was indeed a pair of neutral warriors. We are not bound to college or anything like that. We are free, free to do whatever we want. But despite the free class, we often do righteous deeds. Moreover, we often defend the people or anyone who is oppressed. And on top of that, our names are becoming more and more fluttering in the martial world. Both friend and foe, all disinclined against both of us".

"But the name is human, let alone we want to be good people, surely the name of obstacles will come to the head. So too with us. When our names really fluttered, there appeared warriors who wanted our lives. Almost every day, we were always involved in a life-and-death fight. And once, we met with misfortune. Although maybe our intelligence is difficult to find a match, but you are also human. Not God. Above the sky is still the sky".

"At that time four warriors came suddenly and then ganged on us. They wear black clothes and black face coverings. They have intelligence that is above us both. Or maybe far above the grandfather of the martial world now. Maybe they can only be aligned with Ki Wayang or even Eyang Rembang. We fought desperately against them. The fight lasted one day and one night".

"They saved us from death. We were treated until his condition completely recovered as usual. And the one who saved us was Gusti Prabu Katapangan Krishna. Since then, we have been serving him to this day. Not many warriors know that we have served here. We were appointed as his advisors until this very second," Grandfather Sakti explained to Cakra Buana and Ling Zhi.

During that explanation, his face had several different expressions. His mind looked far into his past. So too with Grandma Sakti. The two couples were nostalgic together.

"Sorry kek, do you know now who the four people who gang-raped you are?" ask Cakra Buana astonishment.

He is still blind in the world of peace. Like a newborn baby into the world. So, of course, there are still many warrior figures that he does not know. Moreover, the Pasundan region is broad, the knowledge is still shallow.

"A good question. In the end, we knew who did it. The four of them were commonly called the Four Heretical Gods. All four are teachers of one science. According to the news, they have a teacher whose knowledge is already very high. Even their teacher got the nickname Dark Deer because the black magic is great not the kepalang," Grandpa Sakti told Cakra Buana.

"I just heard those names. But are the Four Perverted Gods and the Dark Lord still alive?"

"According to the news I heard they are still alive. It's just that he's secluded himself somewhere. But I don't even know where it is. But I am very sure, they will reappear to fulfill their ambitions. That is to be a ruler, both in the martial world, and in government,"

"If it's all true, then I'm sure Pasundan will be in a time of turmoil. It's even so fucked up. Ah yes, do you also know Ki Wayang Rupa Sukma Saketi and Eyang Rembang Mangkurat Mangku Jagat?"

"Hahaha ..," Grandfather Sakti laughed and gulped down his old man before continuing to speak. "Of course I know. Who does not know the two legendary characters? All the warriors must know him,"

'It turns out my two teachers are indeed not just anyone, ' Inner Cakra buana.

For a while the four men were daydreaming. No one talks between them. The four of them were struggling with their own thoughts. There was no sound except the sound of breathing and heartbeats.

"Hey. Let's go see Gusti Prabu. I'm sure he's been waiting for you in his room" Grandpa Sakti said.

"I almost forgot to listen to Grandpa's story. All right, well, let's get there now," Cakra Buana said as he stood up.

The four then set foot outside the room. Cakra Buana and Ling Zhi followed the Pair of Grandpa and Grandmother Sakti from behind. Along the way to the main hall, the royal courtiers looked very respectful towards the old couple. It seemed like they really had quite a good reputation in the kingdom.
