The Jerky Dragon Sword Swordsman

Demon Exterminator

In the time of the Rawi sign of the returnaning wengi (at the time of the sun as a sign of the end of the night). In Pendapa Kademangan Village sounded quite a debate. Between Demang Adiwilaga, village elders and village youth representatives.

“Ki, if you still keep your son here. Instead, we villagers of Kademangan choose to move.” said one of the village elders.

“Truely, the residents started to get scared. If Ganendra gets there like that night. We're all scared Ki. We will not live quietly. Let alone living a life together .. with a stealth child.” timpal one of the youths.

“Certain Ki! Right!” some of the people who were there started to row and chimed in on each other.

“Sedulur all calm... quiet... no need grasa-grusu and rush to make a decision.” Demang Adiwilaga tried to calm the villagers.

Without them knowing the debate was listened to by Ganendra. He felt sad when he found out that everyone in the village was avoiding him. Makes her father in trouble. The sad Ganendra immediately ran outside the village. Using *Ajian Saipi Wind* and with a quick movement towards a river located on the edge of the village. The water in the river looks clear. Reflecting all the natural beauty in Kademangan Village. Ganendra stared at the reflection of himself that was in the water.

“Is it true I am a stealth child?” ask Ganendra to himself.

Without Ganendra noticing, a mysterious wind blew. Shortly thereafter, there was a sound of singing voice.

Ngelmu kalakone kanthi,

lekase fight kas, lekase,

tegese kas nyantosani,

setya budya pangekese dur angkara.

(science can be obtained by way of practice (searching for knowledge),

use intention, so that it becomes strong, so,

sincere and effort that will defeat

evil or reprehensible deeds)

Suddenly right beside Ganendra stood an old man with a white beard and hair curled and tied up. Wearing a white robe that was slung over his shoulder. His body was not very tall and slightly bent. From his appearance like a Pandita or Resi. The old grandfather chuckled to see Ganendra moping.

“Ngger...bituku (*my grandson) why does a good boy look sad?”

Ganendra, who did not know the origin of the old man, simply answered without looking at the Grandpa.

“Hemm...” just a word of meaningless comes out of Ganendra's tiny mouth.

The old man again chuckled. He sat down next to Ganendra. Following see the natural scenery reflected in the river water. Then throw a hook into the river. It's like fishing. Ganendra did not pay much attention to the old man next to him, because his mind was like a tangled thread.

“Ngger... My grandson. Perhaps this will be a speck of light for your heart full of turmoil.”

10 Years ago

A demon exterminator was fighting one-on-one with the Jerky Dragon Serpent King, the ruler of the Jerky Mountain. The stealth fighter named Ragnala. He is a select swordsman who has a high kanuragan science. Her hair was long, but curled and tied up. In both ears she wears jewelry. While the top is not covered with cloth or in other words bare chest. Just a plain brown scarf on the sash next to his left shoulder. While the bottom is covered with a cloth that has a motif like batik. To tighten the cloth, used a thin cloth or linen tightened around the stomach. He wore a wooden footwear called klompen. On his head he tied a patterned cloth like batik.

His two wrists also wore jewelry made of gold and would glitter if hit by sunlight. After all, he is a swordsman who has been recognized for his abilities and appointed as the official swordsman of Kedaton Majapahit. No wonder if wearing clothes more than the people in general. That day was the day where the fierce fight between Ragnala and the Bull Dragon Serpent King. The warrior fights while holding a tiny baby on his back.

The Jerky Dragon Serpent King who was in the form of a dragon snake wearing a crown with white hair. Seen swerving to and fro. Attacking Ragnala with his power. But Ragnala was able to avoid the attack.

“Brotten rider, come here! I will definitely uproot your life with my own two hands!”

Ragnala turned around and smiled, “do it if you can Dragon Jerky!”

Then use Ajian Saipi Wind to move quickly dodging the dragon's attack. Finding a suitable place to fight. Ragnala immediately released the baby sling. Put it on a stone.

“My son, you'll be safe here. Father will definitely come back and defeat the Dragon Jerky.” Ragnala said to the tiny white baby and the sharp round eyes.

The baby just looked at Ragnala and shook his legs and hands. Ragnala smiled looking at his only child who was able-bodied and had a handsome face. However, he could not linger there for long, because soon the sound of the ground shaking omens the Jerky Dragon approaching. Ragnala must not harm her son.

Ragnala used the *Ajian Bayu Bajra* to hover in mid-air and face off against the Jerky Dragon. The Jerky Dragon went berserk and attacked Ragnala with its tail. Ragnala sped up and immediately dodged. Then saw the opportunity to strike back using Ajian Bayu Saketi. Ajian that makes its users can hit with a long distance.

*blaar*!!!

Ragnala cannot be looked at one eye. Both of his hands were stretched out and his body floated dodging the attack. But the Jerky Dragon with his swift attack used *Ajian Upas Sewu*. Directing thousands upon thousands of hooves (\*snakes) to Ragnala. Ragnala responded and immediately issued *Bolo Sewu*. Ajian is also called the study of 1000 friends or soldiers who will protect its users. *Sewu Upas Test* successfully withheld using *Bolo Sewujian*. Seeing that thing. The Serpent Dragon King Jerky growled full of anger. He knew very well, it would be quite difficult to defeat Ragnala. He must seek the weakness of the warrior.

The wind suddenly blew and revealed the cloth that enveloped Ragnala's son. The little baby who felt cold immediately cried loudly.

“Oeek!!! Oeek!!”

The Jerky Dragon Serpent King smiled cunningly upon hearing the baby's cry. Then quickly wagged its huge tail towards Ragnala. Ragnala nimbly twisted his body in midair and dodged the attack of the Jerky Dragon. Just then, his eyes saw the body of the Jerky Dragon wiggling towards his crying son. His instincts could sense that his son's life was being threatened. Ragnala immediately used the*Ajian Saipi Wind* and rushed as fast as lightning towards his son.

The Jerky Dragon had already approached the crying baby, he smiled cheerfully.

“A human child like you, does not deserve to inherit the blood of a Dragon Serpent King.”, said the Bull Dragon Snake. Then shouted out loud.

“Ajian Upas Sewu!”

*The sewu update test* began to come out and gush toward the sinless baby. Right before the hack hit the baby's body. Ragnala uses her body as a shield. But the risk, he was hit by a hoot belonging to the Jerky Dragon. Putting his entire body into lethal poison. But with the rest of his strength, he pulled out his magic cherries. Keris Pulanggeni and quickly slashed towards the Jerky Dragon. The slash of Keris Pulanggeni hit one of the horns of the Jerky Dragon until it broke off. The horn fell to the ground hard. Making the Jerky Dragon roar in pain.

The pain and shame of being defeated by a human. Make it go away from that place, using *Ajian Ngilang Raga*. Ajian that makes its users turn into rays and can move places quickly. After the death of the Jerky Dragon, Ragnala immediately collapsed to the ground. Close to his son. He could only look at his son who was crying loudly. His hands were about to reach the baby. His eyes were so sad. Ragnala realizes the rest of her life will not be long.

Unexpectedly, a mysterious wind blew slowly. A ray of light came closer and before long it turned into an old grandfather. Ragnala knows who's coming. The old man was his spiritual teacher.

“Eyang Guru Sabdo Palon...” Ragnala said.

Sabdo Palon immediately approached his disciple. Staring with a pity look.

“Eyang Gu... Teacher.. please save my son. Guide him, make the swordsman choose a match that is able to uncover the darkness and bring light in this world.” Ragnala uttered his last message until breath blew for the last time.

Ragnala's little baby son was crying even louder. It was as if his father was dead. Sabdo Palon immediately held and calmed the baby. Then saturates Ragnala properly. Give his students their last respects. So that the Great God would give us the most beautiful place.

Sabdo Palon brought the son of Ragnala and the horn piece of the Jerky Dragon together. Then leave the tiny baby to Demang Adiwilaga. Asking for nurturing and caring for it well, because the tiny baby actually has two different sides of destiny. Later, he must determine which side of fate he will choose.

*Flashback End*

Little Ganendra stared at Sabdo Palon who was now standing beside him.

“What am I? I was...”.

Sabdo Palon chuckled.

“Ngger... my grandson.Ngelmu real kang, ati's recipe work. True science will seep in and make the heart serene. True science is true and accountable science. A serene heart will not be hesitant in making decisions and acting, because it is done based on knowledge that can be accounted for. Therefore go ngangsu kawruh (\*berguru) on Mpu Wiyasa. You'll find your true self.”

After the message to Ganendra. The figure of Sabdo Palon suddenly disappeared. The message is always ringing in the heart and heart of Ganendra. He then resolved to seek the truth of who he truly was.

From here will begin the adventure of Ganendra who will take him to become the Swordsman Dragon Jerky.
