The Heirloom of the Catastrophe Spreader

Dragon Core Stone

"I am Arya Pethak, Kisanak", replied Arya Pethak, bowing her body.

"Ah a great young swordsman..

I really appreciate the help you gave me Arya Pethak. I have to reply anyway. What is your real purpose here? Are you also interested in the Dragon Core Stone that is crowded in this person's conversation?", asked Mayang Koro while looking at Arya Pethak's face.

"We did plan to take the mustika stone, Kisanak.

Just because of this noise that makes us curious to see it", said Nyi Sawitri aka Dewi Bukit Lanjar with a thin smile.

"Oh then I'm very lucky. If until you are not interested to see this commotion, maybe my life has drifted hehehehe..

I'm Mayang Koro is not a person who likes to be indebted. Therefore let me take you to the place where the Dragon Core Stone is the real one" Mayang Koro said immediately.

"We already know" replied Arya Pethak and Nyi Sawitri together.

"You mean you already know the Dragon Core Stone is in Selomangleng Cave?

Haish then how do I return the good favor from you", Mayang Koro immediately scratched his head.

"Kiss,

You don't have to think about it. I know you're a pretty respected swordsman. Your title is the Holy Spear Warrior isn't it?

So how could we who help fellow white warriors expect anything in return?

Never mind, we are separated here" said Nyi Sawitri with a faint smile.

"Can't!

I Mayang Koro will come with you to Goa Selomangleng. Until I find a way to return your favor, I will follow you", Mayang Koro insisted.

"Haahhh basic stubborn..

Well Kisanak, if you really want to return our favor, please provide all our needs while in Goa Selomangleng. I think that's enough as a sign that you've returned our favor.

Hows it? Are you willing?", Nyi Sawitri smiled wryly.

"That small thing how could I not be able to?

You all just calm down. All your needs will be met. Mayang Koro is not a person who likes to break promises ", said Mayang Koro with a burning spirit. Hearing the words, Nyi Sawitri and Arya Pethak smiled meaningfully.

As they were conversing, another group approached. One of them is a friend of Mayang Koro. The thick-bodied man immediately approached.

"Darling Koro, please,

The man in black who was killed by Nyi Sawitri turned out to be Akuwu Pakuwon Bandar, Lembu Rungkut.

Your guess did not miss ", said the thick-bodied man immediately.

"I guessed it..

At first I was suspicious of the news about the appearance of the Dragon Core Stone in this Penanggungan Mountain Hermitage. There must have been someone who deliberately fished in the murky water.

The takeover of some inns is indeed a tactic of Akuwu Lembu Rungkut to obtain quick treasures by way of heresy. He deserves to die.

Let it go, you don't have to be afraid. If there will be problems related to the death of Lembu Rungkut, I will ask the Duke of Matahun to act. Duke Matahun is still my family", Mayang Koro behaved as usual.

That night they immediately returned to Ki Murdoyo's inn to prepare themselves as best as possible before leaving for Goa Selomangleng.

Morning is coming. The atmosphere of the morning was quite bright despite the thick cloudiness still hanging in the sky.

The disappearance of Akuwu Lembu Rungkut made a scene at Pakuwon Bandar palace. Kasak kusuk began to be heard among the people of Pakuwon Bandar about the news.

Mahesa Danu as the sister of Lembu Rungkut was very furious to hear reports from his subordinates, especially after hearing reports that found that Akuwu Lembu Rungkut was found killed in the Penanggungan Mountain Hermitage.

"Bad!!

It must have been one of the warriors who left for that place last night.

Send all the soldiers of Pakuwon Bandar. Arrest the warriors in the inn. If anyone fights, kill them!", orders Mahesa Danu immediately. Hearing the order, Pakuwon Bandar warrior leader Hayam Ketawang immediately moved quickly towards the inn in the city of Pakuwon Bandar.

That morning there was a commotion at various inns in the city of Pakuwon Bandar. The swordsmen who on average did not feel set out to fight the soldiers of Pakuwon Bandar. The actions of Mahesa Danu really caused chaos in the city.

Mahesa Danu himself led the soldiers of Pakuwon Bandar as many as 100 people moving to the inn of Ki Murdoyo.

Guests of the Ki Murdoyo inn enjoying breakfast were surprised to see the arrival of Mahesa Danu with hundreds of Pakuwon Bandar soldiers.

"What else do you want, Mahesa Danu? Wasn't it clear yesterday that I wouldn't sell this place to you" Ki Murdoyo said as he approached his younger brother Akuwu Bandar

Phhuuiiiiii..

"This has nothing to do with your lodging sales, Ki Murdoyo..

But all the warriors involved in the quarrel at the Penanggungan Mountain Hermitage will be examined. We suspect they're hiding in your inn. Therefore the soldiers of Pakuwon Bandar will search this inn", said Mahesa Danu while smiling cynically at Ki Murdoyo.

"Ah this is just your wits Mahesa Danu. I don't let anyone bother my guests.

Get you out of my place", kick Ki Murdoyo out quickly. Mahesa Danu immediately grabbed Ki Murdoyo's shirt and pulled Ki Murdoyo's body to the front of his face.

"No, you don't allow it or not, I don't care. Move you there!!" said Mahesa Danu while throwing Ki Murdoyo's body.

"Soldier!!

Search this place. Arrest everyone you suspect. Hurry!!", orders Mahesa Danu loudly. Hearing Mahesa Danu's orders, dozens of Pakuwon Bandar soldiers immediately moved. But there were not yet 3 steps they took forward, a shout stopped their steps.

"Stop!

If you still love life!", cried Mayang Koro who stepped from inside the inn. Since last night, Mayang Koro did not return to his inn because he was afraid to stay away from Arya Pethak's entourage.

Everyone including the soldiers of Pakuwon Bandar and Mahesa Danu immediately turned to the source of the voice. Seeing the arrival of Mayang Koro and Arya Pethak's entourage, Mahesa Danu snorted loudly.

"How dare you stop this search. Who are you?", cried Mahesa Danu loudly.

Without answering Mahesa Danu's question, Mayang Koro reached into her pocket and a silver badge with a skull over the crescent moon showed her in front of Mahesa Danu's face.

"On this basis. You already know what this means isn't it?", Mayang Koro grinned broadly at Mahesa Danu's face.

"Special badge of the Duchy of Matahun?

Where did you get this thing" a frightened voice came from Mahesa Danu's lips. The owner of the silver badge was a person who could not be disturbed because he was a close relative of the palace of the Duchy of Matahun.

"I am the younger brother of Duke Matahun. Do you understand now?", Mayang Koro glared sharply at Mahesa Danu.

HAAAAAHHH??!!!!

"Please forgive Gusti Prince!

Blind men cannot see big men. Please forgive the life of the servant", Mahesa Danu immediately knelt before Mayang Koro. He knew, one command from Mayang Koro could make him suffer.

The soldiers of Pakuwon Bandar directly followed Mahesa Danu. Although only carrying out orders, but if Mayang Koro does not receive it can be fatal.

"Look!

I know you guys are hunting warriors for the death of Lembu Rungkut right? Your brother was killed by a large tall black creature who became a resident of the Penanggungan Mountain Hermitage.

It was also because of his own fault that allied with the demons for profit.

I have written to Duke Matahun to determine the next leader of Pakuwon Bandar.

Now you guys disperse. Do not bother me or you will all suffer the consequences", threatened Mayang Koro who immediately made the soldiers Pakuwon Bandar and Mahesa Danu quickly worship and leave the place.

"You're great too, Kisanak..

No loss invites you to Goa Selomangleng", praise Nyi Sawitri with a thin smile.

"Little business like this Nyi Dewi, no big deal" said Mayang Koro quickly.

The road they passed increasingly smaller until it only became a path that divided the dense forest. The road is getting longer.

"I think our horse can only get here Nyi Dewi..

Next we have to walk to Goa Selomangleng. Goa's on the hillside up ahead. Not far from here" said Mayang Koro aka the Holy Spear Swordsman while jumping down from his horse.

"All right, we're on foot from here" shouted Nyi Sawitri who immediately made everyone in the entourage jump down from their horses.

After tying the reins of his horse to the bushes in that place, Arya Pethak immediately followed the steps of Mayang Koro who became a guide.

Klungsur gasped for breath and became the last in the group.

"Come Sur, cook lose to women?", shouted Anjani from above the road.

"Basic sompret!!

It's so good you said that? I'm not used to walking around in a fucking place like this", Klungsur growled at Anjani's taunts. He soon caught up with the rest of the group.

On top of the hill, a high rock cliff on the slopes of Mount Penanggungan stands. Right in the middle of it, a cave gaping wide like a giant mouth.

"We have arrived. Let's go there", take Mayang Koro. The group immediately moved towards the mouth of Goa Selomangleng. As soon as he arrived, Mayang Koro immediately stopped his steps.

"I can only take you here, Arya Pethak.

Please enter by yourself. Whether or not you get the Dragon Core Stone depends on your own luck" Mayang Koro said as he stared at Arya Pethak's face.

"Well how do I get that mustika stone, Kisanak?", asked Arya Pethak immediately.

"You must meditate in this Selomangleng Cave, Arya Pethak.

According to my teacher, to get the mustika stone you have to meet the guardian of Mount Penanggungan this through the mediocre that you do.

You better get yourself into this cave Arya Pethak. We will wait for you outside the cave", said Nyi Sawitri aka Dewi Bukit Lanjar with a thin smile.

Hearing the words of Nyi Sawitri and Mayang Koro, Arya Pethak nodded in understanding. Soon the handsome young man stepped inside Goa Selomangleng while carrying a torch that was prepared beforehand.

Seeing Arya Pethak enter alone, Klungsur immediately approached Nyi Sawitri.

"Why did Ndoro Pethak just enter alone, Nini Dewi?

If possible I want to accompany him", said Klungsur while staring at the face of Nyi Sawitri.

"You are a loyal servant, Klungsur..

But if you go in, you'll only bother him to meet the guardian of Mount Penanggungan. After all aren't you afraid of meeting a dragon?", Nyi Sawitri smiled wryly.

Klungsur's face immediately turned pale instantly upon hearing Nyi Sawitri's words. Imagining a dragon with fire-spouting breath made him shudder in horror.

"Then I stay here only Nini Dewi, accompany Anjani and Rara Larasati, I fear they are lonely if I follow Ndoro Pethak", Klungsur replied quickly.

"That's your style. Just tell me you're afraid", said Anjani while blasting her lips. Klungsur did not answer again.

Meanwhile, Arya Pethak entered the cave. The longer it gets dark and cold. When he arrived at a spacious room with a large flat stone Arya Pethak stopped. The torch on his right hand is dead.

"Hmmmmmmm..

Maybe I was destined to meditate here" muttered Arya Pethak who then sat cross-legged on a rock.

Slowly Arya Pethak closed all her five senses and then meditated in silence on Sang Hyang Akarya Jagat.

After a long period of mediation, the room suddenly became brightly lit.

A bluish-green-skinned dragon emerged from another passageway. The dragon immediately approached Arya Pethak who was quietly meditating.

"Who are you young? Why make my abode The Fire Dragon hot?", asked the demon dragon quickly.

Arya Pethak immediately opened her eyes. He was a little surprised to see the figure of the giant creature before him. Immediately he crouched down and worshipped at the dragon before him.

"Please forgive me, Eyang Fire Dragon.

Servant of Arya Pethak, from Kahayunan Hill. Come here to ask you for the Dragon Core Stone" said Arya Pethak while paying respect to the Dragon.

Mmmmmm...

"The Dragon Core Stone is the core of my life. If you ask for it, it means you want my life.

Only Lokapala descendants are entitled to get it. Are you a descendant of Lokapala?", the Dragon snorted loudly.

"Hamba did not understand the intent of the Fire Dragon Eyang", Arya Pethak replied politely.

"I'll see if you're Lokapala's descendant or not. If you are a descendant of Lokapala, then I will give you the Dragon Core Stone. If not, I'll kill you", the Fire Dragon's eyes then glowed golden and looked at Arya Pethak's face. In the view of the Fire Dragon on the forehead Arya Pethak appears a holy sign that is a gift of the Gods to all the descendants of Lokapala.

"Haha..

It turns out you're really Lokapala's descendant. Alright I will give you the Dragon Core Stone. As the Dragon Core Stone melts into your body, you will receive tremendous power.

Your eyes will be as sharp as an eagle, your skin as hard as dragon scales, your energy will multiply.

But remember, in the great power is stored great responsibility.

Meditate, I will use my last strength to take you to another realm. Here one day will be like 1 full moon in nature. If you're talented, you won't take long" the Fire Dragon said quickly.

"Hamba understands the Fire Dragon Eyeang" Arya Pethak replied immediately. The handsome young man immediately sat cross-legged on the rock. A golden beam of light shot out from the forehead of the Fire Dragon and illuminated Arya Pethak's body. A moment later Arya Pethak has moved to another realm.

The Fire Dragon then placed the Dragon Core Stone into the chest of Arya Pethak which was then the Dragon Core Stone slashed into the body of Arya Pethak who was ascetic to melt the Dragon Core Stone into his body. Arya Pethak's body was covered by a golden yellow light.

Day change day. It did not feel like Nyi Sawitri, Klungsur, Anjani, Rara Larasati, Mayang Koro and Jalu Langit were waiting for Arya Pethak to come out of Goa Selomangleng. During the wait, Mayang Koro and Jalu Langit were looking for food for all of them.

Klungsur pacing in front of the mouth of Goa Selomangleng. Although a few days ago the talk of Nyi Sawitri made her afraid, but this time she was worried about the safety of Arya Pethak who had been in the cave for a week. Klungsur ventured to enter. Just as he was about to step up, Anjani's voice rebuked him.

"Where are you going Sur?"
