Chapter 48's

the leader of the entourage, faintly saw there was a blue panel above the Mage's head. When he got closer, he could see clearly.

The hint had made him realize, that the Mage figure could be called as the representative leader in this village. So soon he got off the horse and approached Yudi.

"I give my regards to the advisors in the region. Introduce my name Ivar, the messenger sent by King Rekatama the ruler of the kingdom of Great Girisetra" he said.

A moment of silence ensued as Ivar said he was from the great kingdom of Girisetra. That was because the kingdom of Girisetra was a great kingdom among the seven great kingdoms in the continent of Jawadwipa.

This chaotic continent had the Seven great empires, all the people on the continent used to call [Pitu Mestika] who described their power in fighting the Holocaust.

Mestika is a level of an heirloom that is at the highest level. A mestika, able to dispel foreign powers that try to harass him.

Just like the seven kingdoms that are able to dispel the Holocaust attacks that attack every month. They survived not just ten or twenty years, but more than seven generations.

From the human age, each generation of kings generally ruled for a span of fifty to seventy years. If calculated in total, then the kingdom was able to survive the Holocaust for three hundred and fifty years.

An astonishing feat and Pitu Mestika it is the Kingdom of Kutai, the kingdom of Girisetra, the kingdom of Bayusetra, the Kingdom of Agnisetra, the Kingdom of Sundaland, the kingdom of Bali and the kingdom of Galuh.

"Girisetra, wait are you familiar with a man named Tonu?" ask Yudi in response.

Ivar was surprised when the Mage mentioned the name of the man sent by king Rekatama, to look for the herbs Ginseng Morbula and Ginger Musculias.

"Where do you know the name of the man sent by the King?" ask Ivar.

Upon receiving Ivar's question back, it made Yudi smile and swing his hand. The marching troops loosened slightly, then advanced on Ivar.

"Ah, if only you had earlier conveyed your meaning which comes from the great kingdom of Girisetra. There is no way something like this could happen, as an advisor to this village, I apologize for his disrespect. I hope you can understand." he said respectfully.

"Ahaha, no problem. In fact, I was amazed at how the villagers were, they were so heartfelt in response to strangers approaching this region." Ivar replied.

"I take it as a compliment, please step into our modest territory." Greet Yudi to let them in.

"They, I need you to bring Captain Ivar's entourage into the barracks to rest. Goruru and Rawu keep an eye around. As for you, please follow me." added Yudi.

Ivar follows Yudi's steps leading him to the place where King Goobu is. The place was originally simple, made of planks and thatched roofs.

But because of the presence of the Tuyul and Kunti this place has changed drastically. The boards that became the walls were replaced with piles of stones. Then the roof changed, from straw to clay slabs.

Inside the King's hall, the Goblin Lord was entertaining the children of various houses with the stories he had. This is his daily activity, for all is already in the control of the Advisor.

When he sees his Advisor coming with someone from a foreign kingdom, he intends to make a story that almost climaxes before the children connect.

"Prabu Siliwangi, the ruler of the kingdom of Galuh issued two weapons of his inheritance. In front of his angry self, his enemy named Argadana was surprised, because the Prabu had issued both heirlooms of the kingdom of Galuh wingit." Goobu also stopped there who invited children in his circle curious.

"Then what happened?" said a daei boy of Wanara Dynasty.

"What was Argadana defeated?" ask the child of the Buto Dynasty.

"What is the fate of the people after the fight is over?" ask the son of the House of Man.

"Ahaha the continuation of the story you will hear tomorrow again. There are guests I have to welcome."

"Yaaaahhh~"

"Why it should end."

"I want to hear the end of that fight."

"King Goobu always decides on a story at a curious time."

"I want to know the fate of the Son of Prabu against the subordinates of Argadana."

That was their disappointed comment, as King Goobu decided to end the story this time. While Ivar and Yudi felt bad, when they heard the disappointment of the child.

"It looks like he's very much liked by children. A myth says that if you are so loved they will live a long life" Ivar said with a smile, seeing the interaction of Goobu and children of various houses.

Yudi arrived ready with a notebook and pencil in his hand. Then ask Ivar a question.

"Can you repeat what you just said and tell me where it came from?" he said as he prepared to write what the Captain would answer.

"Eh," Ivar responded when he saw Yudi's current attitude as the [Students] who wanted to make themselves as resource persons.

"What do you want to do with it" asked Ivar puzzled.

"I'm a forgetful, so please tell me back about the myth and where you heard it" Yudi said

"Well, if you insist" Ivar replied with a sweatdrop.

As long as he said, Yudi's pen kept moving to record what Ivar had delivered.

"I got the myth from the parents in the great kingdom of Girisetra. Therefore there is a special event in our kingdom, which is held every seventh month on the fourteenth day of the Saka system. The name of the event is Royal Children's Day, where all children in the great kingdom of Girisetra will get a gift from the King. Their parents also gave gifts, as a form of affection for the child." explains Ivar.

Yudi nodded his head, when he heard all the information that Ivar had brought up.

"What a great event, it's worth adopting. I will try to talk about it later with King Goobu. Thank you for explaining everything." said Yudi while putting his pen and notebook back in his back bag.

While they were swept away with chatter, about the event held for the child in the great kingdom of Girisetra. The Dayang palace has led children away from that place.

"Come here, sorry to keep you waiting. That kid always comes to hear stories from me" Goobu said.

The two approached and immediately paid their respects, Ivar was the first to reply to a remark made by King Goobu.

"Hamba did not feel that way, seeing a King so loved by children. Makes me believe that you are so respected by your people" Ivar said.

"Ahaha, what an interesting analogy. What's the basis for you saying that?" ask Goobu.

"For no reason, parents hate the figure of the King who is so admired by their children." replied Ivar.
