The next morning, Ki Selangkit with his aides had been in the Village Hall, to discuss the continuous calamity that befell the residents of Ganjar Village.
"Brother‐ my brother! I will gather you here today to discuss the problems we face in our village. It seems like things are getting worse!" ki Selangkit said to the aides present at the meeting place.
"Then, how do we deal with this problem, Ki? The devil's cleverness is great!" cut off the Lugat with a face of despair.
"That's why I invite you to gather in this place to ask for your opinion or proposal!" sergeant Ki Selangkit was a bit harsh.
"I'm sorry, Ki! I.., I am confused, said Lugat stuttering, when he saw Ki Selangkit riled up because the conversation was cut.
But Ki Selangkit became aware of his words that sounded a bit harsh.
"I'm sorry, too, Lugat! I'm also surprised, why lately I've become so easily angry!" he muttered with a lethargic face.
They also became silent. For a while the room became quiet, carried away by the flow of thoughts of each‐.
"Well! Now I want to hear your opinion, Adi Jarwa!" ki Selangkit said later, looking at the village security chief
"Mmm..., look, Ki! According to what I know, the intelligence of the devil is very high. And the sense of‐taste of the effort we do together‐ together the villagers so far will be in vain‐ only! Uh! Sorry, Ki! Not that I underestimated what we've been doing all along!" jarwa said at length.
"Then, what do you think we should do?" asked Ki Selangkit who still could not guess the direction of the maid's conversation.
"In my opinion, to overcome the violence of the devil is to ask the help of martial warriors!" sulian Jarwa later.
"Hm. Yes, yes," muttered Ki Selangikan while nodding‐buck his head. And indeed it seems that he can accept the proposal proposed by Jarwa.
"How, is there any other suggestion?" ask Ki Selangkit to his other assistant.
"I think Kakang Jarwa's proposal is right, Ki' said Lugat agreed.
"All right! Then, we should split the task!" ki Selangkit said later.
After everyone present got their respective duties, Ki Selangkit immediately disbanded the meeting. Then, the invitation was immediately distributed to the kolademi‐guruan silat who became friends of‐sahabat Ki Selangkit, also to the swordsman‐pendekar who they had known his intelligence.
On the appointed day, Ganjar Village became crowded by warriors who came to meet the invitation of Ki Selangkit.
Dozens of people‐ gallant people and various colleges gathered in Ganjar Village. They all came willingly, without expecting anything in return. It is their duty to use the knowledge they have for the benefit of the people.
Ki Selangkit was busy welcoming the arrival of the warriors‐pendekar. His face looks very serial. Especially after meeting his old friend‐.
"Ah, Kakang Danu Wirya! please, please, Kakang! Thank you for your willingness to come from far away to fulfill our invitation...!" welcome Ki Selangkit to one of his old friends.
"Ah, Adi Selangkit! Why sungkan‐songkan? Have you forgotten our friendship...?" said the person called Danu Wirya with a happy face.
"ah! Kakang could have.
Danu Wirya is one of the old friends of Ki Selangkit. la has a silat college that is quite famous in this Western region. The college is named the White Crow, and has created many warriors‐hardened warriors with knight spirit. So that the name of the White Crow college is very respected friend and feared opponent.
Almost all the warriors who were invited by Ki Selangkit came to fulfill the invitation. They are welcome to rest let loose tired in the place of‐the place that has been provided previously by Ki Selangkit.
The arrival of the martial warriors in the meantime has relieved the hearts of the people of Ganjar Village who have been depressed due to the terror that hit their village. Seeing the heroism of the warriors, the residents of Ganjar Village felt confident that the catastrophe that befell their village would soon end.
In the afternoon Ki Selangkit invited them to attend a meeting held at the Village Hall. Not long after, the warriors began to arrive at the Village Hall. From the steps of their lightweight footsteps, it can be guessed that they average‐ have intelligence that is not low. Their attitude was also polite, reflecting the nature of a true swordsman.
The warriors immediately took the seats that had been provided. After all the invited warriors had gathered, Ki Selangkit immediately opened the meeting.
"Friends‐friends! Before this meeting we begin, we welcome you to taste the perfunctory dish ... !" ki Selangkit said opening the meeting.
Without hesitation‐ again, the warriors then tasted the dishes that had been available on the table. So for a while, the meeting room became a little rowdy. While tasting the dish, the warriors were greeting each other.
"Adi Selangikan, it feels like this meeting can be started!" whispered the Head of the White Crow College, who was sitting next to Ki Selangkit.
"Alright, Brother!" reply Ki Selangkit.
Plok! Plok! Plok!
The warriors turned simultaneously towards the sound the clap was coming from. Instantly the sound of‐ the rowdy voice disappeared, changing silence. They were waiting for what Ki Selangkit would talk about.
"Friends‐friends, are we able to start this meeting?" ask Ki Selangkit. His voice is so authoritative.
There was a boisterous sound for a moment, when the warriors agreed to Ki Selangkit's proposal. Ki Selangkit immediately raised both his hands up to stop the rowdy sound that was like a gathering of bees. A few moments later, the situation became quiet again.
"Friends‐friends! Maybe most of the warriors who are present here do not know each other, but have often heard the name of each‐, then now I will introduce you," ajar Ki Selangikan with a radiant face‐seri.
"The person sitting on my right is Ki Danu Wirya or better known as the Golden Heart Swordsman. He is the Chairman of the White Crow College!"
Ki Danu Wirya immediately got up from her seat, then nodded her head.
All who were present looked at him with admiration The Golden Heart Swordsman Name was indeed enough to shake the martial world. His lunge made opponents think twice about dealing with him.
In the past five years, his name has come out because of his actions that have always helped the weak. Many were already dead black figures in his hands. However, not a few are just released. Probably because of other considerations.
"ah! An empty nickname, comrade‐friend!" ki Danu Wirya said. After saying so, the magic swordsman sat back in his chair.
"And, to my left was a warrior no less famous. Can any of your friends explain it?" ki Selangkit tekas‐ riddle.
"He he he..... Just an exaggerated nickname.., hik .. !” exclaim the person in question Ki Selangkit while shaking‐wigangkan jars wine.
"Drunken Swordsman ... !" exclaim some people present there with eyes wondering‐ wondered
Hearing the name of the drunkard Swordsman, some other warriors became surprised. Because.how did Ki Selangkit invite the swordsman? According to the newspaper, the Drunken Swordsman was a nomadic warrior. And no one knows where the great warrior lives.
The drunkard Swordsman was not ignorant of what some of the warriors present in the place were thinking. And he did not want to confuse them either.
"He he he... Just a passing coincidence! Yeah, just a coincidence...!" bak‐patah.
After saying that, the magic swordsman immediately poured wine into his mouth from the jar that never escaped from his hand. A sound of wine entered his throat.
Glek.. glek ... !
There are some more reliable swordsmen who sent some famous colleges introduced by Ki Selangkit.
Thus, the meeting of the warriors went well, as expected. Several decisions have been made and agreed upon together. Ki Selangkit and the warriors immediately set up a scheme to trap the demons that had killed some of the inhabitants of Ganjar Village, and bring disaster to the safety of mankind.
It was getting dark when the meeting of the warriors disbanded Ki Selangkit. And they immediately returned to their respective lodging places. They will regroup at the agreed time.
