The night was getting late to accompany Satria and her group who crossed the outskirts of the village looking for a place to stay. The tiredness that gnawed at the feet, made them a little desperate. Especially Dewi Sekarwangi who looks bored and several times wiping the sweat that sticks on his forehead. Ki Aswina understood very well seeing it like that. The girl was not the type of fighter who would be strong on the run.
But Ki Aswina also did not want to be too self-assertive, especially until the news about the greatness of Satria spread, it would certainly shake the entire martial universe.
Their steps came to a halt in a narrow sea that split the vast landmass. They stood and looked at the tip of the island in the darkness of the night. At the western end of the waves rolled with their height and hit the rock. Saltwater splashes make their clothes drenched.
In the middle of silence Satria glanced at Ki Aswina who seemed to focus on looking at the large sea water waves. "Grandfather, where are we going?" satria asked confused while holding her chin. That question suddenly made Ki Aswina glance at Satria.
"We will pass through the dimensional portal, just like you when you come to my place" Ki Aswina replied calmly as she observed the surroundings.
"Which yesterday it was just a coincidence, Cake, I don't know if we'll be as lucky as yesterday?" said Satria is still confused with the way of mind Ki Aswina.
Satria recalled the incident on the hill, when the dimensional portal opened he was sucked in and went inside. He doesn't even know how a portal works. The moment it dawned suddenly was already in the human realm. The young man's forehead shriveled until his two eyebrows fused together to understand the events on the hill yesterday.
Seeing Satria's confused face, Goddess Sekarwangi approached and grabbed her hand. "Here you go, trust Ki Aswina". "It's not that you put your trust in that grandfather when he was in the tavern" Dewi Sekarwangi added.
Satria breathed a long breath and turned her face towards Goddess Sekarwangi. "All right, may my trust be right".
These two boys continued to pay attention to every move shown by Ki Aswina. The two grandfather's hands began to harden and gather a lot of power within. A tremendous chakra motion flowed within the grandfather's body.
Several times the waves hit his vulnerable body. But the strength of the grandfather was extraordinary, he was sturdy like a rock maintaining the state of his body. A glittering blue light began to gather with the wind blowing around them.
Ki Aswina glanced towards Satria and Dewi Sekarwangi with the position of the hand ready to hit. "Both of you, get ready. As soon as the portal gate opened, it quickly jumped up and entered. Do you guys understand?"
"Kek Understandings", replied Satria and Dewi Sekarwangi simultaneously.
"Open up!!!!"
Shouted Ki Aswina while hitting towards the point he had determined. The grandfather's face stiffened and his jaw hardened trying to push his hand up.
Lightning flashes and wind gusts gusto accompanied the opening of the dimensional portal gate that Ki Aswina had created. The grandfather immediately jumped up and was followed by Satria and Goddess Sekarwangi. Their bodies entered into a vortex and disappeared as the portal also disappeared from sight. The wind accompanied by lightning also disappeared. The atmosphere on the west coast is back to normal. The waves that were rising back down slowly.
The portal connected Ki Aswina's place with the dimensions of Satria's previous training ground. It turned out that the special dimension could only be accessed by the elders of the king's guard. In addition to his grandfather, it turns out that Ki Aswina can also access the secret place. The young man was muttering with his eyes closed.
In the blink of an eye, suddenly the portal took them somewhere that was already familiar to them. Seemed Satria holding her temple as well as Goddess Sekarwangi. Nausea and dizziness hit their heads. Although their eyes were closed throughout the journey, but the influence of the portal was still felt.
"We have arrived" Ki Aswina said as she opened her eyes.
"We have arrived at the hut" cried Satria excitedly as she ran towards where her mother and grandfather were.
Ki Aswina walked hand in hand with Dewi Sekarwangi while looking at the surrounding area. His eyes showed a sense of longing for this place. The place where the royal guards were trained to master various canuragan sciences.
Ki Aswina's footsteps had stopped for a moment to look at the rest of the hill on the west. The forest that was like burning was scorched without any remains.
"What really happened in this place? There should be a hill there", muttered Ki Aswina softly but could still be heard by others.
Dewi Sekarwangi saw Ki Aswina was confused and came to a stop beside her. "That was Satria, when yesterday went berserk and injured Ki Soma" said the girl explaining the bad situation at the training ground.
Ki Aswina took a deep breath and imagined the monster-like power of Satria. How not, a hill could fall with just the strength of an ordinary human.Breathe in accompanying the old footsteps again walked between the paths to the small cottage where Ki Soma lay weakly.
In front of the hut, Dewi Kembang hugged Satria with tears that were so haru. "Son, you're home safe, I'm very anxious waiting for your return".
Her mother's cheek-stomach is getting brighter and a little smile appears on her face. He was so happy to welcome the arrival of Ki Aswina accompanied by Dewi Sekarwangi. The grandfather rushed in with quick steps. His eyes were almost wide open watching Ki Soma's state in the bed.
"Ki Soma, it's not wrong that it's him. My century's rival in medicine" whispered Ki Aswina in his mind as he watched the frail old body lying covered in wounds.
Slowly Ki Aswina's footsteps approached the bed without making a sound. He sat down slowly with sharp eyes watching every inch of old body before him. "Soma, are you really? Why are you getting hurt like this?"
Suddenly Ki Aswina's tears dripped as she watched Ki Soma's face grimace withstanding the pain. "Hold my best friend, even though you were my rival, but I can't bear to see you suffer" Ki Aswina said, holding the rival's right hand.
Ki Aswina concentrated fully on the chakra point and channeled a new energy into Ki Soma's body. Some tootokan are closed to open the point of the clogged chakra. Ki Soma's face stiffened and groaned understanding the incoming deep energy pressure. A warm feeling began to spread from the tailbone towards his entire body.
Ki Soma's body wriggled violently on the bed trying to stand up.
"Citybeeeeeekkkkkkk".
"Cityooeeeeekkkk".
Uuueeeeeekkk".
Ki Soma spewed out all the dead blood that was clogging in his chest. The blackish and foul-smelling blood came out making Ki Soma limp helpless. He lay back with his eyes closed.
Seeing Ki Soma who had already vomited all that was clogging inside his chest, Ki Aswina began to be relieved. He took a breath while lowering his internal energy pressure. "Rest Soma, I will make medicine for you" Ki Aswina said with a smiling face as if she had just taken off the heavy weight on her body.
On the other hand, Satria saw the incident with a little caution if Ki Aswina did anything to his grandfather. He stared and watched over every action of the grandfather. Though opposed, yet in his heart he believed he was a good man.
Seeing Ki Aswina turning around after laying down her grandfather, Satria approached. "How's Ki Soma Kek doing?" satria asked with an anxious face.
"His injuries were quite severe, and he had to stay rested for a long time. I will treat it", replied Ki Aswina while walking towards a seat in the corner of the room.
Satria who had been observing Ki Aswina's movements felt very curious. He was instead confused by the actions of the grandfather who looked relaxed while Ki Soma was dying. "Are you sure you can cure him?" asked Satria again in an impatient tone.
"Related".
"Why are you so sure, Cake?" Satria continued to throw questions until she was completely satisfied with the answers she received.
Ki Aswina smiled cynically from her seat an uncomfortable sign with all of Satria's questions. "You want to know Grandpa's secret medical science?" the grandfather throws a challenging question to Satria.
Sontak Satria was so excited by the offer that had just been submitted by Ki Aswina. "Of course", Satria replied in response to Ki Aswina's offer.
Ki Aswina stood up again while grabbing something behind the crease of a tangled shirt. His right hand now holds an ancient relic that makes Satria shake his head.
"You know what this is?" ki Aswina's hand showed an old book that was over a hundred years old. With a puffed up chest the old man explained to Satria. "This is a book that I received directly from the God of Medicine, because I have completed the tata berata".
The eyes of Satria sparkled to see the majesty and radiance of energy from the book. From the outside it does look tangled, natural because it is more than a hundred years old.
"What is the book called the cake?" satria asked with sparkling eyes trying to grab the book from Ki Aswina's hand.
"Ha ha ha ha", Ki Aswina giggled at Satria who had started to be interested in learning medicine. "This is the Book of Taru Pramana, there is no disease that I cannot cure" Ki Aswina continued.
The sun began to shine brightly at the eastern end, and started Ki Aswina concocting various types of medicinal ingredients that she bought in the market yesterday.
