The Heirloom of the Catastrophe Spreader
A Sword of Mount Kawi



"I did it, Gusti Mapatih...


He used the science of sirep to paralyze the guards and the people inside this Great Castle. He admitted that he wanted to take Gusti Pangeran Sanggramawijaya as a hostage. Because he insisted on fighting and did not want to surrender, I was forced to kill him" said Lembu Sora while respecting Mapatih Kebo Anengah Sang Aranji Aragani.


"It's appropriate that this bastard is dead, Ox Sora. You really are a true hero", praise Mapatih Kebo Anengah while smiling thinly.


"Hamba could not have defeated him without the help of Kebo Anabrang and Pendekar Arya Pethak, Gusti Mapatih", hearing the words of Lembu Sora, Mapatih Kebo Anengah Sang Aranji Aragani looked directly at Arya Pethak and Kebo Anabrang.


"You have also contributed greatly to this rescue effort. I will ask Gusti Prabu Kertanegara to give a big gift to the two of you", continued Mapatih Kebo Anengah who made Kebo Anabrang and Arya Pethak salute the warangka praja Singhasari immediately.


After ordering the soldiers to remove the body of Mahesa Rangkah and his followers, Mapatih Kebo Anengah left Puri Agung Dyah Lembu Tal.


That night after the attempted kidnapping of Raden Wijaya repeated again, the atmosphere of Puri Agung became tense. The guard became tight with hundreds of soldiers deployed by the Kotaraja Singhasari Palace to prevent the same event from happening again.


The night soon changed in the morning.


2 Days Arya Pethak and his friends live in Puri Agung Dyah Lembu Tal. Although there were no follow-up events like the other day, but the atmosphere was still quite tense.


Hundreds of soldiers were still in vain to stand guard. Some low and middle officers alternately guard the residence Dyah Lembu Tal according to the arrangement of Mapatih Kebo Anengah.


Yesterday Arya Pethak, Kebo Anabrang and Lembu Sora were summoned to the palace of Kotaraja Singhasari by Maharaja Kertanegara.


For his services to the Singhasari Kingdom, Lembu Sora acquired ownership rights to the land of his birth. He was freed from the taxes of the earth and all the produce belonged to the Sora Ox. His position was elevated to a Demung-level Mantri who handled the armaments of Singhasari soldiers.


Kebo Anabrang was awarded the rank of Warrior in Kotaraja Singhasari. He was entitled to lead 500 soldiers under his leadership and get a land area of 300 fathoms as his place to build a house in the west of Puri Agung Dyah Lembu Tal to facilitate his duties.


While Arya Pethak who refused the land prize, obtained her compensation with 500 gold pieces, and, 10 Fine silk cloths from China and 1 silver badge with a garuda bird that allows him to enter any palace without inspection. They all received the great gift with great excitement.


Klungsur was sitting in front of the guest hall porch when Arya Pethak and Anjani and Nay Kemuning walked towards him. Nirmala followed behind them.


"Ndoro, though,


Let's just go back to Kadiri yuk. I'm not at ease in this place. Too crowded and there is always a reason to make a mess.


I already miss my father who is a horse caretaker at the Palace of the Patihan", Klungsur said as he looked towards the blue sky which was partly covered in thick black cloud without looking at Arya Pethak. Her lips were as though she was thinking of something.


"Pair that ugly look, who wants to be friends with you?


Your fox face as it is now otherwise I will not tell you important news" Arya Pethak said with a smile teasing Klungsur.


"Indeed, Ndoro Pethak has important news what? Got another gift from Gusti Maharaja Kertanegara?", this time Klungsur turned to Arya Pethak and the beautiful girls. His face was still lackluster.


"Ah lazy to talk to you Sur, your face like a man defecating so", Arya Pethak throw face.


"Aduh Ndoro Pethak use ngambek all..


It's Klungsur's already this smile look at Ndoro", Klungsur forced his face to smile. But instead of looking unsightly even looks like the face of a strange person. Arya Pethak and all the girls laughed back and forth until tears came to see Klungsur's face.


"Well, laugh again..


Ah everything really sucks. I won't talk to you guys anymore" Klungsur scolded after hearing his comrade laugh.


"Your face is very similar to the face of the donkey Sur hahahaha..


Anjani, tell Klungsur what I asked Gusti Lembu Tal last night?", Arya Pethak turned her eyes to Anjani.


"Emmmmmmmmm...


Look Sur, Kakang Pethak last night had asked permission from Gusti Lembu Tal that this morning would return to Kadiri. And he has given permission to Kakang Pethak and all of us" said Anjani who immediately made Klungsur jumped from his seat. So happy, the head of Klungsur to hit the porch pole because of his silly actions that jump in joy after hearing Anjani's words.


"Oh biyung..


Kog can be apes like this?", Klungsur immediately stroked his head that was as big as a pigeon egg.


"Bo'abo'..


Ba'na is really embarrassing. Like a child who can just candy", Nirmala's nagging look Klungsur stroked her bumpy head.


"You see this, the prospective husband suffers even in maki..


Where is your affection for me Nirmala? I began to think of canceling plans to marry you if you kept going like this", Klungsur grumbled grumblingly.


Hearing that, Nirmala immediately took out her celurit and immediately draped her into Klungsur's neck.


"Just try if you dare, do not squeak the neck of the sengko" said Nirmala with a tone of voice full of threat.


"Yes yes Nirmala joked", Klungsur said quickly.


'Based on Songeneb women, little bit played celurit. O God, am I going to die young at the hands of my own future wife?', the inner Klungsur in heart.


"Have joked enough..


We cannot get too deeply involved in the politics of Singhasari Palace, Sur. Today we also go back to Kadiri" said Arya Pethak with a faint smile. Klungsur immediately smiled widely hearing her.


After a partial sun rose, Arya Pethak and his friends said goodbye to Dyah Lembu Tal and Raden Wijaya.


"Good way, Uncle Pethak..


May the Gods always protect their uncles and aunts" Raden Wijaya said, hugging Arya Pethak's body.


"Thank you Raden..


Uncle pray that Raden Wijaya will be a just and wise King" said Arya Pethak while patting Raden Wijaya on the shoulder.


After saying so, Arya Pethak immediately let go of his embrace and looked at the handsome faces of Raden Wijaya and Dyah Lembu Tal before jumping on her horse following Klungsur, Anjani, Nay Kemuning and Nirmala who had already climbed on the horse.


They immediately drove their horses away from Puri Agung Dyah Lembu Tal towards the southwest.


Two days earlier, one of Mahesa Rangkah's students who managed to escape from death contacted Mahesa Rangkah's younger brother in Padepokan Mount Arjuna to ask for his help to avenge the death of his teacher.


Moreover, hearing the story that the person who defeated Mahesa Rangkah is a young swordsman who has the knowledge of the power of Ajian Lembu Sekilan, the determination of the old man named Gorawangsa is getting bigger.


They immediately prepared themselves for revenge by arranging a plan on the northwest border of Singhasari city, in a house that was the former residence of Mahesa Rangkah before.


That morning, while Gorawangsa and Jalak Awu were chatting casually in the porch of the mansion, a young man in dark green clothes ran quickly towards them.


"Teacher.. Gurus..


The young swordsman in white clothes had left Puri Agung Dyah Lembu Tal. They're heading south-west.


Like him they headed towards Kadiri through the southern path of Guru", said the young man who was a czech who was one of the students of Mount Arjuna Padepokan. He and his two friends were indeed assigned by Gorawangsa to observe the situation of Puri Agung Dyah Lembu Tal for two days.


Hearing the report from his disciple, Gorawangsa immediately stood up from his seat.


"Haha..


Finally the little mouse came out of the nest. In this way, we do not need to bother looking for a way to attack the entrance into the Great Castle.


All of you, let's go after them!", cried Gorawangsa as he darted quickly towards the horse that was tethered in the deck.


A total of 18 students Padepokan Mount Arjuna and Jalak Awu immediately followed the steps of Gorawangsa.


While the group Padepokan Gunung Arjuna began to move, Arya Pethak's group and friends were out of the boundary of Kotaraja Singhasari. They crossed the southern path of Mount Kawi.


Green rice fields south of Kotaraja Singhasari become a beautiful sight of the journey of Arya Pethak and his friends. The cool breeze from the south makes the atmosphere so pleasant.


By midday, Arya Pethak's entourage had entered Siganggeng Village on the edge of the path to Kadiri via the south.


A pair of swordsmen in dark blue clothes were walking towards the middle of Siganggeng Village. They are young, about 2 and a half decades visible from their face and body romance. The man looks dashing with a shoulder tie of a black purple cloth, also a headband with matching colors. His mustache was thin with clear and clear eyes. A sword was slung on his back. Women also look beautiful even without makeup. In matching clothes, the woman looks compatible with the man by wearing a sword on his waist.


They immediately entered into a food stall looks quite crowded on the side of the highway leading to the Kadiri region.


"Is there anything I can help you with, Kisanak?", asked a servant kindly to them.


"Sorry Kisanak,


We just have this. Can this be exchanged for food?", asked the young swordsman while removing 4 bronze pieces from his shabby cloth bag.


"Nice with a little vegetable. Drink only water. Is it still in the mood to buy food, kisanak?", replied the waiter of the food stall while slightly mocking.


"That's enough, Kisanak.


We will wait for our food here" the man said as he stood at the table. The food stall waiter immediately passed towards the back.


"I'm sorry, Nimas..


I can't take you to a good meal right now. The teacher did not give us much travel" said the man with slight embarrassment.


"What are you talking about, Kakang? The important thing is we can still eat now. Don't be too discouraged", the young woman smiled faintly.


All the talk between them was heard by the ears of Arya Pethak standing behind them. Arya Pethak and her friends stopped in front of the restaurant after Klungsur complained of rumbling stomachs.


After getting food, a pair of young warriors shifted towards a table in the corner of the dining room.


"Servant, man,


I ordered 4 pieces of grilled chicken, a packet of rice and a large portion of vegetables.


Money problems you do not need to worry", said Arya Pethak who made the waiter immediately inching backwards to prepare food orders Arya Pethak.


Klungsur and the others were shocked to hear Arya Pethak's words.


"What does Ndoro order that much food for? Ndoro Pethak is hungry?".


"Not just for me. Later you also know for yourself", said Arya Pethak with a smile knot.


After getting his food, Arya Pethak immediately brought a tray filled with food towards a pair of young warriors who were sitting in the corner of the room.


"My brother, my brother,


Long time no see, why did you eat not invite me?", said Arya Pethak who immediately made a pair of young warriors look at each other because they did not know Arya Pethak.


"Sorry Kisanak, like his kisanak wrong people. I don't know Kisanak", said the young man immediately.


"Then introduce my name Arya Pethak, from Kadiri.


Who are you?", Arya Pethak put the tray of food on the table.


"I'm Walang Sungsang and this is my wife, Niken Satyawati. People know us as a pair of Swords of Mount Kawi" said the burly man who claimed to be named Walang Sungsang.


"Well, what a pair of warriors, what a fortune. Since we know each other already, this is a sign of my goodwill to be friends with you" Arya Pethak said, shoving a tray filled with food in front of Niken Satyawati and Walang Sungsang.


"But this.", Walang Sungsang had not yet finished his talk, Arya Pethak had cut him off.


"Don't worry about the payment, I'll buy it..


Klungsur, order me a grilled catfish. I don't like to eat grilled chicken" Arya Pethak said with a faint smile.


Klungsur, Anjani, Nay Kemuning and Nirmala joined them. Arya Pethak soon introduced her comrades one by one to Walang Sungsang and Niken Satyawati.


They eat while talking about many things. They don't feel like their food is over. Just as Arya Pethak was about to stand up from her seat, from the direction of the food stall door came dozens of people in dark green clothes with an elderly man leading them.


One of them immediately pointed towards Arya Pethak and her friends who were enjoying food in the corner of the food stall room.


"Teacher, they're there"
