Chapter 5 - Chapter 5. Mahapatih Gajah Mada

System: "Congratulations users get historical characters." Hearing the sound of the system, Agha looked at the middle-aged figure in front of him.

"So this is how the summoning works is very unique, I can use it and call it magic. I can make it an excuse when you ask," thought Agha.

Seeing the light in the King's room, Danadyaksa became alert. He thought that an enemy had sneaked into the palace and was about to kill the king. Especially this all happened at this sensitive time and the events of the murder at the coronation of Agha. Danadyaksa assumes it to be like that.

But the assumption Danadyaksa had was broken when the figure that emerged from the light called Agha as his master. Danadyaksa was fascinated by this situation, besides not believing in what he saw Danadyaksa was also curious about how the figure could enter the palace guarded by hundreds of soldiers and how strong the figure was until he could escape Danadyaksa's detection.

"Introduce yourself, brave soldier."

The sentence that came out of Agha's mouth the first time when he looked at the middle-aged figure in front of him, stated that he did not really know the figure. Although Agha has several candidate names about the character, he is not sure.

"I am Gajah Mada, my lord."

"Gajah Mada, is he Mahapatih Gajah Mada from the Majapahit Kingdom which is famous for his Palapath Oath. I have to confirm if it's true that I am very lucky." Thought Agha

When Agha thinks of Gajah Mada's identity. Danadyaksa felt confused, when he saw a mysterious smile on Agha's face. Shortly thereafter, he asked a question that interrupted Agha's concentration.

"Young Master, do you know him?"

"I know a little about him but I don't know for sure."

"Why doesn't the Young Master question him with the knowledge that the Young Master has about him"

"Yes, Uncle, indeed I want to question him, but Uncle interrupted me."

"Hahaha ... I see. I'm sorry, Young Master."

"It's ok uncle"

Gajah Mada saw two people talking in front of him. One person who he considers to be a master is still very young he looks like a teenager, but that teenager has his own charm. The charm that emanated from his eyes showed cruelty but the cruelty disappeared in an instant and was replaced by the stares of ordinary teenagers who were interested in new things. And one middle aged man who looked strong and had the pressure of a war general. Listening to the conversation between the two people, Gajah Mada just kept quiet and watched him.

"Forgive my rudeness Gajah Mada for ignoring you."

"It's okay, sir."

"Hahaha ... you're quite good at Gajah Mada. Then I want to ask something."

"What do you want to ask, sir? I'll answer it."

"Well ... I just want to make sure Gajah Mada, do you know anything about Majapahit?"

"Well, I hope he really is Mahapatih Gajah Mada," thought Agha after raising the question to Gajah Mada who was kneeling before him.

"My lord, do you mean that Majapahit is a kingdom then I know about it but if what I know about Majapahit is not a kingdom, then I do not know you."

"Yes, Gajah Mada. Are you about the kingdom?"

"Yes, my lord. Of course, I know because I was a retainer in the kingdom and one of the most important retainers in the Majapahit kingdom."

"Hahahahaha ..."

When he heard the answer from Gajah Mada, now Agha was convinced that he was the Mahapatih Gajah Mada who was famous for his leadership in conquest and helped his King establish a great Kingdom and was known as the Majapahit Kingdom.

Danadyaksa who had only been paying attention to Agha and a figure named Gajah Mada chatted, he was surprised by the laughing out of Agha and he was astonished by Agha.

"Why is the Young Master suddenly laughing if something enters his head? Oh ... Gods and ancestors, I beg you not to let that happen. Now the Young Master has changed, I beg you not to change him again. I don't want to see the Young Master like before or crazy. Oh God let the young master .... forgive him God, "thought Danadyaksa.

"Young Master, are you all right?" Asked Danadyaksa who was confused. Not only Danadyaksa who was surprised and surprised, Gajah Mada also experienced it after hearing laughter without cause from the person who is now his master.

"Oh ... I'm fine uncle. Why are you asking like that?"

"Thank God. Young Master, I am worried about the Young Master for suddenly laughing without cause."

After knowing the Agha's condition is fine. Danadyaksa felt a feeling of relief in his heart. He began to calm down and not worry too much, Gajah Mada also had the same feeling. Previously he thought his master had a problem because he suddenly laughed to himself.

"I'm ... just too happy Uncle. Just calm down."

"I was too happy after knowing the true identity of Gajah Mada until I realized my laughter came out." Agha thought

After the identity of Gajah Mada was revealed, Agha appointed Gajah Mada to be a general and ranked one level below Danadyaksa.

Finished making Gajah Mada General, Agha ordered a servant to take Gajah Mada to his new residence and ask Gajah Mada to come to see him later.

Gajah Mada was escorted by a servant out to see his new residence, after seeing Gajah Mada out Agha began to explain the light in the king's room and the appearance of Gajah Mada to Danadyaksa who asked it.

"Let's practice again Uncle, I want to quickly master the 'Badra Tread Spell' and I can learn other techniques."

"Doesn't Young Master want to talk about something important?"

"Ah, right Uncle I forgot about that." Agha says it and laughs shyly.

"Then what does the Young Master want to talk about?"

"Do you remember Uncle when I suddenly fell at the coronation meeting?" Danadyaksa thought about the incident where Agha fell and went limp like a dead person.

"Yes, I remember that Young Master."

"At that time, I was given a glass of wine by a servant, and she had the same characteristics as the servant Lust rented, but she was a woman."

"Really, young master."

Danadyaksa was shocked by Agha's remarks that he was also poisoned by a servant.

"Yes, Uncle. I remember it clearly, but what makes me confused is that they are not the same Uncle, what I mean is their sex."

"This ... really ..."

A frown appeared on Danadyaksa's forehead when he heard Agha talking about servants. He wondered why all the events in the kingdom of Agrapana were caused by a servant, and now he could not associate the clues he knew.

With the words of Lust and Agha. Danadyaksa can only conclude that they are not related to each other but there is a possibility that they are related even though it is very small, and Danadyaksa expressed his thoughts to Agha.

"Never mind Uncle for the time being, we don't worry too much about it. We better fix this kingdom and most of all increase our strength."

"Yes, young master. We don't need to worry when we have great strength."

"Then let's continue the delayed practice, Uncle."

"Come, young master. I will not give you time to rest, young master and this will be harder than before."

"Yes, Uncle. I will give my best."

-..-

After ending his training Agha met Kavi who was in his room.

"Minister Kavi, have you met Gajah Mada?"

"I have met with His Majesty."

"Good, then don't call me Your Honor. From now on just call the Young Master like Uncle Danadyaksa."

"But ... Your Honor." Minister Kavi doubted what Agha said.

"Enough of this command." Agha firmly ordered Minister Kavi to call him Young Master.

"Yes, young master." Minister Kavi can only accept Agha's decision with resignation.

When Agha and Kavi discussed something, Minister Jovic arrived and asked to enter the King's private room. He was allowed in after a soldier asked for permission and Agha gave permission.

-..-

When Madhava heard that there was a new General who was ranked higher than himself. He wanted to meet with Gajah Mada, Madhava wanted to see the people who passed him in the military rank and he wanted to know how the figure who became the highest general.

He wants to test Gajah Mada and himself who is the best between the two of them. When Madhava searched for Gajah Mada in the Military Camp, he saw Minister Jovic rushing to the palace.

After the incident at the Great Hall, Madhava wondered why only Minister Jovic and his family survived while the others were punished. But Madhava did not think much about this because he was sure Agha would have his own plans, even though he was not entirely sure.

"Where is the new General, I have gone to his residence and searched for him in the Military Camp, but he is not there."

"Arrghhh ... Could it be that he was afraid of me. Hmm ... no, there's no way he was afraid to do it. I heard from the soldiers who saw him, if he looked very strong."

Madhava is talking to himself on a big brown horse. On the other hand Gajah Mada who was walking around the great hall and heard about the oath of the King, he remembered the oath he had uttered for the Majapahit Kingdom.

Now Gajah Mada who has been appointed as a high-ranking General in the Kingdom of Agrapana, began to get used to and began to find out about the King who led this kingdom. And he was quite surprised when he found out that the King had not ascended to the throne too long.

"The throne of my lord is not yet very stable at this time but he has removed a few obstacles. Hahaha ... this is really interesting. Will I be able to lead a large army like before, I look forward to it," said Gajah Mada, then he continued, "My Lord, I am Gajah Mada who was once the Mahapatih in the Majapahit kingdom will dedicate my life to you. "

That is the thought that was implanted in Gajah Mada's mind after he learned the current condition of the Agrapana kingdom. Madhava who had been around and looking for Gajah Mada finally gave up and waited for his meeting with Gajah Mada in the warrior camp.

NB: Here is some history about Mahapatih Gajah Mada

-Gajah Mada (died k. 1364) was a warlord and a very influential figure in the era of the Majapahit kingdom. According to various sources of mythology, books, and inscriptions from the ancient Javanese era, he began his career in 1313, and increasingly climbed after the Ra Kuti rebellion. during the reign of Sri Jayanagara, who appointed him as the Patih. He became Mahapatih (Great Minister) during the Queen Tribhuwanatunggadewi, and later as Amangkubhumi (Prime Minister) who brought Majapahit to the peak of its glory.

- the most famous palapa oath to date:

"Sira Gajah Mada pepatih amungkubumi tan ayun amukti palapa, sira Gajah Mada: Seagrass huwus lost to the archipelago ingsun amukti palapa, seagrass defeated the Desert ring, Seram ring, Tañjungpura, Haru ring, Pahang ring, Dompu, Bali ring, Sunda, Palembang, Tumasik, samana ingsun amukti palapa "

if subtitles have the meaning:

"He, Gajah Mada as the Amangkubumi governor did not want to let go of fasting, Gajah Mada said that if I had defeated (controlled) the archipelago, I (would) let go of fasting, if I had defeated the Desert, Seram, Tanjung Pura, Haru, Pahang, Dompo, Bali , Sundanese, Palembang, Tumasik, thus I (will) release my fast "
