The Rising Of The Mage

New truth 2

Shadow suddenly chanted a verse in an unknown language Yudi.

"Sasurune ana cahya

Misih awang uwung jagat durung dadi,

Ana swara kapyarsa,

Rich gentha kekeleng dumeling,

Lah ta sapa iku kang nyuwara,

Lah ta sapa kang ngrungu kuwe,

Lan sapa kang asung,

Lan kang nggingsep angrasa sami,

What is mangka, mangana,

Tan ingaran

Padha mangeran kumandhang,

Nadyan mangran kumandhang ana kang cardi."

After Shadow chanted the verse there was silence, as the breeze gently stroked towards them. Yudi was fascinated by the beauty of the sound that Shadow used when chanting it.

Never once did the Mage hear the verse as Shadow had just chanted it. Plus he didn't understand a single word that had just been chanted.

"What is the meaning of the poem you just chanted?" Ask Yudi.

"This is not a Verse, Lord Counselor! What I have just chanted is the Holy Verse contained in the scripture called Literature Jendra Hayuningrat Pangruwatin Diyu which was corroded by Sang Hyang Panayikan on the orders of the Supreme God the Lord of Tribuana who reigned on the throne Suralaya Palace or Yang better known as Jonggring salaka kahyangan." Answer Shadow.

"God! Holy Scripture? Does it really exist, I don't think such a thing exists?" Ask Yudi

"Where is the book now?" Ask Yudi

"As you know 500 years ago there was a major event that shocked the Jawadwipa Continent. It happened in 786 Saka. Details of the date and month I know less? What was clear at that time was that many important Fibers and books were destroyed by burning and buried in the ground. One of them is the Jendra Hayuningrat Pangruwatin Diyu Literary Book written by Sang Hyang Panayikan as a living guide of the Great God." Reply Shadow.

"Then the name of the event?" Ask Yudi again.

"The Ancestors called it the Great Pagebluk, because there were so many diseases and disasters that occurred at that time. Even the Kunti Dynasty was at its heyday, with their kingdom named Audianusuma completely destroyed. Plus at that time, there also appeared a [Silver] level monster that ravaged the kingdom of Girisetra." Answer Shadow.

Yudi was pensive when he heard Shadow's explanation and did not forget to take note of it. Then he said again.

"Alright, let's put aside the problem of the appearance of [Silver] level monsters that have destroyed the kingdom of Girisetra as you said. Now tell me the meaning of the Holy Verse you have recited?" Yudi.

Shadow nodded as the Village Advisor uttered his request.

"The meaning of the verse I have recited is as follows.

Before there was light, when it was empty and the universe was not yet becoming, there was sound. Like the sound of a bellowed Genta. Who is it that makes a sound? Who else is listening to him? Who also told? And who sucks and feels it all? Does such a thing have no name? Finally everyone was echoing the sound. Even though there are those who deify the echo, there are those who create it."

After hearing and recording the meaning of the holy verse. Yudi tried to digest what he had just heard and written. Although some time passed, but he still could not understand what the Verse was trying to explain.

"I don't understand the meaning of the Holy Verse? What the hell is going on?" Inwardly

Suddenly a blue box containing information appeared.

Ding!

[You fail to know the meaning of the Holy Verse being read, it happens because the level of [Reading] and [Learning] is not adequate.]

Ding!

[It takes a Beginner Level 5 Reading and Learning Skill to understand the Sacred Verse.]

"Now I understand why I can't understand it" Yudi muttered after receiving the two pieces of information.
