CHAPTRE 33
Race With Time
The voice of Kedasih lirih
It's like losing a lover
The sky of Asoka was gloomy
Letters of fire seeds appear in shadows
Ready to scorch Asoka once again!
The earthy and surging sound filled Asoka state carrying the news of the auction.
Not news of ordinary death. This is amazing.
Because His Majesty King Baruna has died.
The palace was temporarily preoccupied with the preparation of the funeral procession.
The cold body of King Baruna has been bathed, embalmed, worn with his greatness. Decorated as handsome as possible. Then placed in the middle of the palace family room in a coffin of sandalwood decorated with flying dragon carvings on the surface of the lid, the corners and sides are golden.
Guests mourning and mourning came surging from all over the country. Even emissaries from friendly countries deliberately came to pay their last respects.
For almost seven days all walks of life were given the opportunity to pay their last respects to their king.
And the 100-day plan set a day of mourning for Asoka State.
*
The Prime Minister held an emergency meeting, responding to the changes that occurred in Asoka State.
Although all the people are joining, Prime Minister Baruna did not relax the spirit to immediately carry out leadership succession. Succession of dreams is the top of his plan.
At the meeting were all ministers and their ranks, martial arts figures who had been in the hands of Prime Minister Banara.
The king has died. There is a void at the highest peak.
When the King was kidnapped, all the leadership was held by Prime Minister Banara. Governance and all orders for the continuity of the kingdom are in his hands.
Such a moment Banara's heart and feelings seemed to rumble and excited. He imagined a story for himself. Just a few days left. After the mourning period passes, he will be the successor king.
Banara will be the next King of Asoka.
*
This meeting was in the form of maturation of plans for the succession process, the replacement of the future king.
Banara ordered to strengthen all at the vital point of Asoka State.
Minimizing all the gaps or eliminating altogether the possibilities that would lead to the failure of all his plans.
All the leaders under him have been in a conical move to one point, fully control of the Land of Asoka.
All have dreamed of occupying a position that has been the flower of sleep all this time.
Without ever thinking of anything else. Even the plan relates to the kidnapping of his king.
Team to take revenge.
Even more bizarrely they already celebrated his success.
Just wait for the day! Think they.
*
The same thing happened in the private palace of Prime Minister Banara.
Alamanda is so cheerful and excited now. His pair of hearings were fitted fine. Insert the slightest news about the state of the palace. Not only was the news obtained through her husband. Even all the issues and news of the wind blowing hard in Asoka State has never been as small as out of his monitoring.
Like that night, Banara fell asleep after wading through the ever-moving ocean of romance.
Alamanda with her innocent body coming down from the bed swerved towards the window. A pair of his buttocks swayed left to right teasingly. His body still leaves a sparkling sweat when exposed to the moonlight of the night that broke through the window. Her long hair was unraveling, falling over her pair of beautifully rounded breasts.
His stomach was slightly altered. Alamanda already contains a three-month path.
" My boy, may you be a boy. You'll be crown prince" his mind is overjoyed.
Alamanda now has new activities. In addition to stroking her stomach, she now diligently marks graffiti on the wall, counting the coming 100 days, when the coronation of her husband Banara became King Asoka.
And, now the new graffiti enters the count of nine.
The King of Baruna will be buried tomorrow.
The moon was so beautiful to light up the sky Asoka full of stars
The moon smiled cheerfully
A smile from Alamanda invites dreams.
*
King Baruna was buried in the palace cemetery.
The people of Asoka poured over the edge of the road. From the palace to the Last Hill of Souls, the burial complex of the kings of Asoka. Along the way they were jostling to take off and see the last time their king.
The motorcade of the troupe walked down the street in the mornings. Suddenly the sky was split apart by a lightning bolt that started the drizzle down all morning.
The drizzle of shimmers oversaw the journey of the funeral procession.
The people did not move, allowing the drizzle to flush their heads. Cools hearts and feelings full of sorrow and anger mixed together.
They wanted to revolt, they agreed in silence to avenge the arrogant Sky Country!
They are ready to do belapati. Even though they have no warring intelligence or have the power to express themselves.
They're ready, waiting to be dispatched.
*
The mobile hearse was escorted by horsemen and followed by horse-drawn carriages from the circumference of the palace, such as the Prime Minister Banara train, Prince Ludiro Train and subsequently the train of royal officials.
There are two trains that last participated in the funeral procession that has been prepared by Prince Ludiro for his two best friends, the train for the Santika family and the train for the Lingga family.
Furthermore, the martial world figures of all factions also participated.
Down the road with a drizzle.
Melatari Asoka raya who is in mourning!
*
Almost a full daily until dusk fell in the sky Asoka, the drizzle has subsided and the sky Asoka into a beautiful shade of shade.
The funeral procession had been perfectly all returned to the place each carrying memories of the grief.
The days of mourning continued to incline in Asoka's dark history, waiting for time to pass to meet the new dawn.
New king?
The Sky Country?
Almost all the people are immersed in the grief and the turbulent magma in the soul to release vengeance and vengeance.
But there is also a group of people who start to dream new dreams without ever feeling the slightest sorrow and shivering anger over the loss of the king!
*
The night fell perfectly.
At Villa Rajawali there is a casual meeting between three friends.
Present there, Prince Ludiro, Santika, Lingga and Ganesha.
" Friends of Santika and Lingga. The results of the investigation of Wijaya, finding such obvious oddities if carefully observed," Ludiro's voice opened the meeting.
" According to Wijaya, the kidnappers moved very quickly and received no obstruction at all. There are no clashes. Seamless and smooth. The kidnappers seem to know with certainty the state of the palace. The place of guard, to the extent that the custom that occurs in the palace," continued Ludiro with a tail.
" When it was time for the parties to take place, which made the guard drunk and easily paralyzed," a deep and sharp voice showed the emotion of his heart's wrath.
" The king's guards are the chosen ones. Why is it so easy to beat?
And, the kidnapper could also freely escape the siege and pursuit. Even more strange is the danger sign that turns on not the security forces, but the kidnapper.... Maddened... Bruuk!" ludiro Voice
growled and release emotions by hitting the table.
The ones present did not interrupt at all. Just listen with a concerned heart.
" Till also, the place where the kidnapper's boat was hidden and the banner that fell.
It's all getting weird. There was no battle, no attempt to retake the king.
There was no trace of the kidnapper being pursued by the forces the Prime Minister was mobilizing.
In Wijaya's opinion, lest the banner was not dropped but accidentally dropped?" ludiro's voice is getting louder. He who is usually calm looks ignited emotions.
" In the interim conclusion of Vijaya, there is the involvement of insiders or people who have lived in the palace environment," his voice trembled trying to contain emotions. He saw his two friends asking for opinions or enter, will all events that occur, related to the kidnapping of the king.
" Friend Ludiro, if I may add. I also encountered irregularities in the palace surroundings as I investigated and searched for traces," Lingga opened his voice, slowly and measured.
" It's almost like Wijaya's analysis. From the stories or testimonies I collect. The kidnapper came and went through the side of the castle fortress which was there between the time around sepenanakan rice there were no guards.
Because in that narrow time, the guard of the fort always did a routine of checking the situation at ten spears distance from the post. Either to the right side or to the left side of the guard post. So that the low time was used for the kidnappers to enter and lightning fast out of the castle fortress. There was no fighting, no attempt to obstruct the kidnapper," Lingga calmly conveyed the results of his investigation.
" Right, what happens is that the king's drunk guards, dancers and music players, are easily paralyzed with sirep and pounding stone pebbles to make them faint. It makes almost no sense, but that's what happened. As also stated by Banara's father," Ludiro ended his report.
Ludiro heard that his heart grew increasingly confused, he did not blame if Wijaya conveyed his suspicions like that, indeed the reality that happened on the field like that.
" Ludiro..," Santika's voice was clear and calm.
" Surely, no pursuit was able to catch the kidnapper, the trail was too clear. The troops and pursuers were always a considerable distance of nearly half a day. Though the pursuers were the chosen soldiers, the horses were the chosen horses. They know the streets or the Asoka region. And even more bizarre is the incident when we tried to free the king," Santika's voice excited when telling everything.
Oddities that occurred during the liberation.
All the stories make a strong conclusion, that the abduction of this king, is well planned, and deliberate to screw up or humiliate the State of Asoka.
Especially when Ganesha spoke up to say what he had experienced.
" I'm sorry, Uncle Ludiro. I found out the kidnapper was the same person and I had met him before a few days of kidnapping. His name is Buntaran with five friends, even had clashed with Kemala Ayu's sister," Ganesha then told of the previous experience.
*
" What's even stranger, Uncle. When liberating the king in Sangga Langit, the army deployed a lot. But they don't really fight. It was as if they were ordered to stand in the way instead of defending or recapturing their captives. King Baruna was accidentally released.
There's a follow-up to this kidnapping and release, Uncle. There will be a storm of waves coming. In my opinion, Uncle," the voice of Ganesha steadily gave his report and opinion.
Those present were also not fools. The inconsistencies are so obvious. Not difficult and secret. Clear and clear.
As if this was an event of lure or trap and suspicion leads to the role of insiders, people around the scope of the palace. But that is a strong presumption there is even a role of Prime Minister Banara in it?
Did ya?
According to Wijaya's analysis?
As Ludiro thought too?
Villa Rajawali was silent for a time. Only leaving a deep breath that represents the unrest and complexity of the thoughts and feelings present there.
But the silence was broken by the sound of Radar special bodyguard Prince Ludiro who came facing.
" Please a thousand mercy... Princes. There is very worrying news. Thousands of people moved towards the palace. They demanded Asoka, to counterattack to Sangga Langit. They do not accept being harassed and humiliated.
The abduction of the king is a very shameful thing for the country of Asoka," Radar reported clearly and precisely.
" They can't wait for the mourning time to pass. They want or demand the authorities to take immediate retaliatory measures" Radar said.
The aftermath of the kidnapping, liberation and death of His Majesty King Baruna began to be seen.
Seriate....
Ashoka at the Horn
The people urged the interim leader Asoka to immediately move to retaliate. Waiting for the mourning period to finish is felt for too long.
Waiting for the rapture and coronation of a new king is also considered too long.
The holders of power and provisional government are subjected to the dissatisfaction of the people.
The people urged, the government to immediately counterattack or attack the Sangga Langit country that had humiliated Asoka.
*
The sea of humans crammed with various kinds of weapons. What is there, it carries. He has a sword, a sword he carries. Has a spear, a spear carried.
Got a pacul, yeah the hoe that was carried. All move to the front of Asoka palace.
Prince Ludiro, Santika, Lingga and Ganesha also joined the party, disguised as commoners. They want to see up close, how, or what action Prime Minister Banara will take in the face of such popular demands. The four of them took the position of spreading out so as not to look flashy.
Prime Minister Banara out of the palace pacified the people who came more and more.
Accompanied by Jumala the Guru Bangsa, the new Ministers subordinate to him. Also present were Baskoro, Nyi Sagopi and other heretical grandfathers.
The sight for the people is not a concern and serious problem.
But for Prince Ludiro.
" Haha... Unheard-of... Who are they all? Why is there in the palace with such a pretentious and haughty lagak," inward Ludiro exasperated.
Despite the riled up, Ludiro just kept quiet trying to keep up with the next developments!
*
People are becoming impatient. Vigorously shouting.
" Reply... Reply... Reply... Attack... Destroy the Sky Staircase, '" those shouts that came surging as the people demanded. They wondered why the palace was silent. There is no preparation for war. Destroying a country that has insulted Asoka's glory!
" We must have retaliated. We must pay for this humiliation. But... Just be patient for a second. We are still in mourning" Banara said.
" If we want to do something there must be one command, one command. So that everything we do has direction and unity move.
Wait, there'll be a new king's coronation soon. As the successor to the success of Asoka. Under his command, we will move together against all enemies" the fiery voice of Banara said.
People heard it cheering. Shouting unpretentious and bumpy.
" Life of the Prime Minister... Life Asoka... We're ready to die.... For Asoka!" they shouted excitedly and fiery as well.
Hearing the cheers of the people, Banara's heart trembled, proud and happy.
" ha's... Ha... Ha... Any minute... I am your King" said Banara with a faint smile and sparkling eyes.
The change in expression was still able to be caught by Prince Ludiro's sharp eyes.
Who with his cleverness was able to catch the winged words that Banara spoke.
The people were controlled for a while. Be patient to wait, what the Prime Minister has promised!
*
Nights...
Another in the mouth, another in the heart.
Banara became dizzy seven circumference. Actually he wanted to buy time, until his coronation happened. After that, he was in power. Anything you can think about lately?
The important thing is to be king first. His dream succession came true first.
He was certain that he would succeed Baruna as king. King Asoka. Which he has been running and controlling all this time.
He was not worried about his younger brother Ludiro, because he knew, Ludiro had not been interested in the throne of Asoka.
But the voice of the people, the insistence and the desire of the people made his heart waver.
Until in his night's sleep this time, anxiety and anxiety. Makes his sleep not sound. Until he felt a cold, sharp-sided feeling touch his neck.
He thought it was just a dream. The nightmare!
But when he heard Alamanda's screams, he woke up, and found himself in the power of a tall young man with a handsome face and an unfamiliar look. Put a dagger around his neck.
And he saw near the corner of the window that Alamanda was snared by a whip wrapped around her innocent body by a beautiful woman and looked flirtatious threatening her neck veins with a prepared deathtrap. Alamanda's speech has been teased, unable to speak. Just his pair of eyes widened, terrified!
Why did Buntaran and Dewi Wilis enter Prime Minister Banara's room?
*
Previously in the Sky Country....
After facing His Majesty King Gomorrah and conveying his plan to immediately invade Asoka State. Restu Bumi was overjoyed that King Gomorrah strongly agreed to the plan and would intervene on his own.
This power-crazed king wanted to destroy Asoka Country with his hands.
He is proud of the success of Restu Bumi who has brilliant ideas and plans to make the kingdom of Asoka as a colony, later!
He ordered Restu Bumi to ensure the maturation of the invasion plan once again, by sending Buntaran and Dewi Wilis to monitor the state of Asoka after the loss of its king. In order to be sure Asoka has been weak and later will be easy to destroy.
The idea of His Majesty Gomorrah was welcomed by Restu Bumi. So he sent his disciple and Goddess Wilis Buntaran kambratnya carrying out the king's order and all of you carry out a crazy plan that suddenly flashed in his brain.
Depart at that time also Buntaran and Goddess Wilis to precede coming to Asoka.
*
" Who are you guys...?" asked Banara nervously. He did not understand, why they could escape into his room and managed to threaten him. Even worse, Alamanda had already fallen in their hands.
From the end of his eyes, he saw Alamanda his wife crying without a sound.
His nimble gaze returned to his captor who was now sitting at the end of his bed.
A strange handsome face. A beautiful woman who looks a bitch and her face is foreign too.
Once again Banara tried to control the situation.
" Who are you guys that dare to go in here?" his voice was bluffing to cover his anxiety.
" ha's... Ha... Ha... I am the Vortex, and that is Dewi Wilis, the special envoy of the Sky Stove," he laughed loudly and spoke with a strange accent.
" We are the ones who kidnapped your king and tortured him. Ha... Ha... Ha..," she laughed once. Very loud and clear, in a quiet night and without the moon and stars in the sky.
Banara was very surprised to hear that explanation. Especially after hearing the follow-up from the menace.
" We, know what you've done. Letting your king be kidnapped. Not chasing and recapturing, instead you let go. You were intentional, weren't you?
Ha... Ha... Ha... We're not stupid.
Amazing, what's in your cunning brain. Ha... Ha... Ha...
Borrowing the hands of others.
Awesome, sneaky!" the voice of the foreign youth completely stripped her of her wishes.
Banara only glared furiously and did not wince. Dead lice. All his cards seemed to have been opened by his opponent.
" We, you know, you're very ambitious to be king, aren't you?" taunted later.
Banara's teeth were grinding, holding back the overflow of his heart.
" Hey, Banara, you can still be king. After we attacked and we controlled the land of Asoka. How's it?" scoffing and very rude. An extraordinarily insolent young man.
But all the words of the foreign young man, it's true. He could not stand up and deny it at all.
His eyes only glared at the brazen manner of all his captors.
" What if you become king. The puppet king of course?
*
After the people disband and are willing to be patient to wait for the next step.
Prince Ludiro, meeting at Villa Garuda. Not all are present. Just Santika, Lingga, Wijaya and Ganesha.
" According to my hunch, there will be a major event following as a tail of the past kidnapping incident. Perhaps it can come from outside Asoka and from within Asoka that has often been the subject of thoughts and conclusions while we. There are underground movements that try to control the palace.
Wijaya, we need to prepare. Gather, organize and prepare all parts of the people, both the army, old ministers, old officials, people and all those who are still loyal to the land of Asoka just in case. Wait, no matter what happens, don't move. Wait, so that who really is the mastermind of all this, open the guise of increasingly real.
And, for Santika and Lingga, please also prepare a line of warriors and patriots because from my analysis, martial artists will also play a role in this movement.
Whatever happens, wait... Let the fish in first.
Then close the exit.
And, get ready to fight it out!" message and order from Prince Ludiro to face all the changes in Asoka's situation later.
*
There was a big event that became a change beyond calculation, in Asoka Palace. As Ludiro calculated.
With the approval of the old figures, and the elders of the Asoka kingdom are certainly in favor and in the grip of Banara, the next day in the 83rd day of mourning, the, the kingdom held the ceremony of the coronation of Prime Minister Banara to replace His Majesty King Baruna who had died as the New King.
The new legitimate ruler of Asoka Country!
People are delighted with this change. In the hope that their demands of that time will soon be met. With the New King, the new command, the raid on the Sky Stove to punish the country will be carried out soon.
*
With Baruna appointed as king, the allies feasted on the success. Dreams are real now!
*
For Ludiro, this change, in fact, has become a fruit of his mind, has felt this event will happen. But he did not expect it to happen sooner. Her brother Banara was impatient!
Being king, was the ultimate goal he wanted to achieve.
Hmm... let's see what happens next again...?
*
Back off the night before...
Buntaran that night managed to make a deal with Banara.
Banara agreed to give up the defeat and was willing to become a puppet king of the Gomorrah King of the Sky Staircase.
If he refuses first Alamanda his wife will be examined by the vein of death by Goddess Wilis who captivated him.
In order to save his wife, Banara pretended to agree to Buntaran's offer.
But Banara's calculations were wrong. He was released, but his wife Alamanda remained a prisoner of the enemy.
After the deal, Buntaran, Dewi Wilis left Banara's palace in captivity to Alamanda.
*
There was a disgusting change. Seeing her husband Banara is on the verge of collapse. Alamanda, who is essentially self-centered, makes calculations in his slippery brain.
He felt that Banara's chance of becoming king was over. For what he must defend Banara. He never loved her. All done to pursue his ideals, want to become the queen of the king.
Something had to be sacrificed to achieve its goal.
The first victim was her husband Banara whom she betrayed.
Almanda cleverly managed to attract the attention of the young, dashing and powerful Buntaran. A warlord with a brilliant future.
Moreover, Buntaran is indeed a servant of lust. Lust for power and lust for women.
Become a disciple of four great men, who are heretics. The behavior of his teachers affected his character and behavior as well.
His teacher Dewi Wilis, he saw always rumbling with the twins Gonjala-Gonjali.
Dewi Wilis was the mutual lover of her teachers.
Although Dewi Wilis is already in her 50s, but because of the black magic she has is able to make herself look young and still beautiful enchanting.
Buntaran as his student also fell into his arms. Teacher disciple, become an inner lover.
Buntaran taught silat and magic, also taught the science of lovemaking.
Since first meeting, Buntaran has been fascinated by the beauty and smooth body of Alamanda Banara's wife who was held captive by her teacher in a state of complete nudity. Occasionally he steals a look towards Alamda while pressing and threatening Banara.
Alamanda though in a state of crying and fear, he can still catch the glint of lust in the eyes of Buntaran.
This is the basis for the Alamanda calculations. He was ensnared and lured Buntaran when he was held captive and left alone in the inn room that Buntaran had rented before.
Goddess Wilis had left that night looking for another man to vent her insatiable lust!
The opportunity was best used by Alamanda and was like a container meeting the lid. Clop!
The bindings were together, finally the long hot night was filled with sighs and clenched Alamanda's flirtatious hot struggle with Buntaran.
Alamanda gets a new vehicle to achieve his dream.
Alamanda is wrong. The count of Buntaranpun makes no difference.
Because all night they sip the intense heat of romance over and over again... They both suffered from exhaustion. As the sun descended on the west side, its rays drifting in through the window grille struck Alamanda's smooth skin and jolted Buntaran's consciousness from hearing the frenzied noise outside. The sound of people partying in that large inn.
Banara becomes the new king.
Buntaran...
It's all too late... Everything happened outside of his calculations.
Banara was crowned the new king of Asoka or made himself king.
Buntaran felt himself cheered and furious.
Hastened to snatch the fire arrows stored under the bed. Rushing towards the window, immediately released fire arrows as a sign of Asoka's invasion began.
The fire arrows split the graying night as the night curtain was already perfectly down.
*
The night that just appeared made the sky dark.
Asoka sky that was once dark, quiet and asleep.
Turned into a bright light
The great army of Sangga Langit Kingdom is led by King Gomorrah Sakti and accompanied by Restu Bumi. Coming in from the North. The attack came from the sea. Dozens of Sangga Langit battleships, appeared like ghosts. Scrambling the guard ships, patrol boats belonging to the Asoka kingdom easily. Without a meaningful fight.
Five large aircraft carriers with Dragon Banners Swallowing the Sun were fluttering about toyed with the wind. Not to mention the ships that numbered in the tens, containing soldiers, weapons and supplies.
Incredibly great war power.
*
In the past, in the heyday of the King of Bengal, such a large army was nothing to the Asoka Kingdom.
Asoka Kingdom the strength of its army is in all lines of attack and defense.
From the land, from the sea and civil forces containing warriors and people who are ready to defend the land ready to defend the country shoulder to shoulder defending the homeland from foreign invasions.
But the situation is much different now. After the death of King Baruna and the mandate of the government was handed over to Prime Minister Baruna, who was quickly crowned as the successor king.
Has not done consolidation, improvement in all areas.
The invasion of foreign soldiers who are used to be conquerors and also become a nation of invaders has come.
All defenses were broken. All the guards were successfully penetrated by the Sky Country Forces, which flowed like an ant troupe flooding the land of Asoka.
A large group of yellow ants!
And, tonight the once glorious Asoka State becomes a gamble!
Seriate...
