The Fragrant Soul

The Fragrant Soul
Chapter 17: Mother



Indeed, if you are facing problems, misfortunes, or difficulties, the person who cares the most and


the most worried is your mother.


With the Gandakusuma family power network so large, of course the news of his daughter's misfortune has been


delivered by his men. The most famous female swordsman then immediately came to see his daughter. Uniquely, it comes without escort and without motorcade. This female warrior felt more comfortable moving on her own in disguise. Simply dressed in the clothes of an ordinary person, and the veil that covered him part of his face, he immediately turned his horse as hard as he came to his wounded daughter.


“You've healed?” my mother was already in the doorway.


“Already mother,” replied Amara with a smile, he kissed her mother's hand. Raka did the same. The mother held Amara's wrist to check her pulse.


“Know that mom doesn't have to come,” the mom laughed. “Troubles right 3 days trip here. Arrived fresh fit. Even well dressed. Where else to crawl?”


“Unfortunately mother wants me to lie sick in bed?”


“At least it's better than you venturing out and being killed by people,” said the Queen Ayu.


“Ihhhh,” Amara slammed feet with spoiled.


A swordsman who was respected for his sword, now turned into a spoiled girl before his mother.


“Raka how is it?” ask the mother with a smile.


“Bless prayer and blessing mother, nanda healthy and very good,” apparently against her own mother, Sukma Harum


behave very politely. Much different from his spoiled sister's attitude towards his mother.


“Why did his sister get this way? Is Raka less paying attention?” there is a little hardship behind words


this subtle one.


Sukma Harum just smiled. He did not answer. He knew that his mother understood the answer. In this world no one can ban Amara if the teenage girl already wants to do something.


“Mother heard a lot of people are looking for Raka at the moment. What's wrong?”


“Since the past until now, there have been many people looking for Raka kakang. Mother need not be surprised,” laughs Amara.


His free and carefree soul, made him not look like someone who had just been seriously injured. Although his face still looked pale, and his body felt still weak, his joy did not diminish at all.


Raka began to tell about all the events that he experienced. The mother listened carefully


ask questions about something that is not yet clear.


“The enemy is still unclear. The goal is still not known. Raka has to be careful. Temporarily


mom will take Amara home.”


“Eh, how can you? Raka kok Mara's brother's business that can't leave the house?” mara Sahut.


“Before this business is done, we must not separate. Only at home can we have the best defence.


Let your brother investigate this matter without having to think about your safety.”


“Ah mother...,” back Mara slammed feet. Although his heart was stuck, he knew this matter was very precarious.


Hundreds of warriors dying on an island is not a small thing. Even a thing that horrendous the martial world. And he understood, in this world only his feet can uncover all these secrets.


“But I can help if Raka's brother needs my strength,” Mara still refutes.


“If Raka needs your help, she will say it. Before being asked, Mara must remain at home.”


Indeed, all this time Mara ventured with great success. His extremely high swordsmanship made his name almost equivalent to his mother's name. He can defeat enemies easily. But a few days ago, he was on the verge of death. He began to realize that the high silat science he had not necessarily be able to save him from the evil plans of humans who are cunning.


“Good. It's up to you..,”


These words had made Queen Ayu and Raka shocked as well. Just this time Amara “surrender” easily, usually have to go through the debate that this beautiful new girl wants to comply.


“Tumben according. There must be something to this. Want to ask for a wedding?” seductive mother.


“Bundaaaaaaa! Who wants a kawinnn?!! It's delicious!” Mara went out of the room.


“Haha. Apparently he did ask for marriage,” the mother's laughter to Raka.


“If you keep flirting, nanda worries she can elope. Well later we are the ones who bother telling him to go home.”


“Hey you two! Mara can still hear from here!” mara's voice came from outside.


“Mother has eaten? Let's eat.”


***


As is the custom in the Gandakusuma family, if they eat, all their servants and servants eat. Although not in one table, but the food they eat is the same. This is where Queen Ayu first met Maya.


Just this time Maya saw that graceful woman. Although she is middle-aged, the beauty of Queen Ayu Dewi


Kinanti was not inferior to those who were still girls. It's still high. Her fair white skin was gently groomed. Although there were one or two gray hairs on her head, her hair was still finely scratched beautifully. His movements were gentle yet radiated with air and charisma that was able to subdue people enough with his gaze.


And those eyes were looking at Maya.


A calm yet probing look. A warm gaze yet able to pierce the contents of the human heart. If


a woman has a son who is very handsome, dashing, and wealthy, then his gaze towards his son's girl friend will certainly be like this.


Maya was so clumsy, but she tried to strengthen her heart.


“Who is your full name? Why did Raka never tell?”


Maya then told me everything. He knew he could not cover anything in front of this great woman. Raka just smiled as she looked at the noisy lady. Sometimes he helps tell stories if the lady has trouble finding words. For that, Maya is very grateful.


He had only known Raka for a few days, as if the man had known her completely. As if I understood the contents


like a spoiled child of a noble family.


This was something that attracted his heart.


Queen Ayu was still conversing with the servants and ladies-in-waiting of the ship, asking about the latest news and


their adventures. He seems to enjoy very much the stories about the martial world in this era. It seems that the soul of his adventure that has been residing in the bottom of his heart is still blazing with bright light.


But she has a husband. He had a man he loved so much that he was willing to leave everything behind


life's excitement.


For perhaps, to the extent that a woman achieves her life's dreams, she must ultimately become


a wife and a mother. In the end it was her feminine nature that led her to make a choice.


Throughout his life as a warrior woman most powerful mandraguna, he finally understood


the greatest happiness of a woman is to be a mother. Become the land of the growth of successive generations of nations that lead humanity to a brighter future.


These are the women who make life on this earth so beautiful.


***


“What do you think of Candramawa?” queen Ayu asked Raka as the two of them conversed with four eyes.


“Mothers put suspicion on him?”


“In all these incidents, he was the most suspicious. It is located on the island of Sepingkan.


His sudden departure. Then know according to Maya there is a figure similar to her who appeared in the Devil Valley. And so far from the news that I heard, he chose the height of science that is comparable to you.”


Ratu Ayu continued, “But the funny thing is, in various events, the most suspicious people are usually not


perp. And the least suspicious person is precisely the culprit.”


Raka laughs. He understands the true understanding. Since he was unfortunate across the martial world completed everything


the question is, what his mother said was the real truth.


“I'm afraid of one thing,” said the mother. “I suspect Amara put her heart on him.”


“How can that be, mother?”


“Mara is a cute girl. She is also not a cautious girl. If not for being interested in


Candramawa, not necessarily he wanted to stalk the man to find out that he left the island.”


Female instincts, only women understand best.


Raka said nothing. Candramawa was a very brave man. Very handsome though his aura was covered in darkness and a secret fog. His movements were unexpected. Although his appearance was quite frightening, but he was clean and tidy.


If confronted, he and Candramawa are sharing a shadow that complements each other.


Harum Sukma is a warrior who is warm, graceful, and calm. His clothes were always bright and fragrant. It rarely kills people. It radiates a beautiful life and a bright light.


Sebalikyna Candramawa is a cold and fierce swordsman. The clothes are always dark black. Eve's killing emanated clearly from her body. All of the opponents who faced him were no survivors.  It symbolizes a sinister death.


“From now on we must pay attention to Candramawa's movements more earnestly. Enjoin


this is to our servants.”


“Good, mother.”


Know-how from the outside heard a booming sound, “Hey old cockroach! You've been here gathering


your ladies, while I you tell me to wander to the poisonous island! You son of the devil!”


Antasena has come laughing and talking as good as his stomach. Suddenly the laughter was silent. Raka suspects that someone told the big tall man that the Queen Ayu was there.


Of course Antasena did not dare to open his voice. Even the farts don't dare. Besides her mother, Ratu Ayu


the woman he respected the most.


“You've arrived Antasena? Why don't you come over here and kiss my hand?” knock Queen Ayu while laughing.


“I, Queen Mother.” Antasena always answer “saya” in exchange of rich “Iya” if talk to Raden Ratu


Ayus.


The man was in front of the room. Its large body makes it difficult to move in a ship whose entire room is narrow. He knelt down and gave his greetings, “The Queen Mother has come apparently. Sorry I'm late to come.”


“Of course you're late. Every day Raka tells you to do things that don't make sense. Have you eaten? It was this afternoon. So fast.”


“Already the Queen Mother. I ate before I came here.”


“Good. I'm leaving you both. I have something to talk about with Amara.”


“I, Queen Mother,” Antasena replied.


As soon as Ratu Ayu left the room, Antasena slapped Sukma Harum on the shoulder. “Hey fucker! Why don't you


tell me the Queen's mother is here?”


“How do I tell you?” Raka Laughter.


“Entahlah. You think of a way.  You're the smart kid,” Antasena's laugh. He continued, “How did you get here first?”
