"You don't have to worry about Dipasena, and don't think too far ahead, I'm sure majesty has considered carefully what will be decided," said Badrika wisely, and Dipasena was seen clenching his lips while rolling his eyes, a sign that he didn't agree with Badrika's answer.
"Yes, I've stayed first, if you want to wait for me to come back, please," said Badrika saying goodbye to Dipasena.
Indeed, among the courtiers of the Karma Jaya Kingdom, the most displeased with Adhinata's success was Dipasena.
Meanwhile, not long after walking Badrika arrived at the King's Palace, knowing that his arrival had been awaited by King Jayantaka, then Patih Badrika went straight to the room where Jayantaka was waiting.
"Greetings Servant majesty ..." said Badrika still standing at the entrance.
"Please come in Sir Badrika, come here..." said Jayantaka. Then Badrika immediately stepped down and then stopped in front of the King.
"Sit down, Sir," said Jayantaka, showing the chair that had been occupied by Adhinata.
"I'm sorry, Majesty," said Badrika, and then immediately sat down on the chair.
"Forgive me, Majesty, do you have any orders to do?" asked Badrika.
"I want to tell you, that for the success that Adhinata has achieved in finding a healer for me, I must fulfill the promise or gift that I must give according to what is written in the contest."
"Then regarding how much gold and silver I have determined myself, namely fifty pure gold bars, one hundred gold pieces, and two hundred pieces of silver. Then for the issue of position I have also decided that I will make Senopati Adhinata your representative in carrying out the mandate Kingdom prime minister.
For a moment, Jayantaka watched Badrika's expression after hearing his explanation, and it seemed that Badrika seemed calm as if he did not have a problem with his decision.
"What do you think, Sir?" asked the King.
"Forgive me Majesty... if it is a majesty decision, I agree and it doesn't matter, because I also know that majesty in determining each issue must have gone through quite thorough consideration."
"Thank you, Sir, it is true what you said, before this, I had already spoken with the advisers and the royal family. And well then for the implementation I will ask you to arrange everything, the important thing was that the implementation was carried out together with the New Year celebration tomorrow," said Jayantaka, who looked very happy with the attitude of his prime minister.
"Yes, Majesty..." replied Badrika while lowering his head.
"Okay, then Uncle can go now."
"Yes, majesty," said Badrika by paying his respects and then immediately left the King's Palace.
Meanwhile, at the Palace, Dipasena seemed to be still waiting for the prime minister to return from facing the King, he was curious about what the King had to say to Badrika, and not long after that Badrika arrived at his residence.
"Sir, Dipasena, are you still here?" said Badrika.
"It's true, I want to know what you have got from facing majesty just now," explained Dipasena with a curious look on his face.
"So Dipasena... King Jayantaka will create a new position in the Karma Jaya Kingdom, which position will be given to Adhinata," replied Badrika, who was immediately cut off by Dipasena.
"A new position? What position is that, Brother?" said Dipasena.
"Majesty will make a representative for me."
"Representative prime minister means?!" replied Dipasena emphasizing.
"True Dipasena."
"And you agreed?!" said Dipasena with slightly bulging eyes.
"You know, Dipasena, there is no reason for me to disagree with majesty's decision," said Badrika, opening his palms.
"Isn't you worried that position could be threatened by Adhinata's entry into the prime minister Palace?" asked Dipasena.
"Not Dipasena, because Adhinata will be placed in the new prime minister Palace, not here and we will also have our duties, so I don't feel the slightest worry," explained Badrika.
"I do not agree and I will say what has been decided by this King Jayantaka!" said Dipasena curtly. Then without saying goodbye Dipasena immediately left the palace prime minister.
As he walked away, he seemed to be muttering to himself.
'This cannot be tolerated, and must not happen! Anyway, I have to find a way so that Adhinata was not appointed as representative prime minister Badrika! Because with Badrika's condition who is quite old, Adhinata may be very easy to become the first choice for Jayantaka, and if that happens then it is also a threat for me to seize the throne of the Kingdom.'
While continuing to walk towards his residence, Dipasena kept thinking about finding a way to Adhinata's appointment as prime minister of the Kingdom, and at the same time he arrived at his residence, suddenly a thought crossed his mind, "Well I will tell majesty that success is Adhinata is invalid because he did not succeed in bringing the magical corpse according to the contents of the contest," he said as he entered his house.
Because his thoughts were so focused, Dipasena immediately walked in and ignored the guard soldiers and the ladies-in-waiting in his residence. And as soon as he got home he was immediately asked by his wife.
"What's wrong, my husband? How come you look so angry?"
"Very bad!" answered Dipasena in a high voice, making his wife shocked and confused.
"What do you mean?" continued his wife.
"King Jayantaka will appoint Adhinata to be the representative prime minister of the Kingdom. Ah...! Dizziness...! Dizziness...!" said Dipasena while sitting with his right hand holding his forehead.
"Calm down, drink first ..." cried Nyai Dipasena while pouring water from a gold-carved teapot. Then she stepped closer to her husband and immediately held out the cup.
"Come on, have a drink... calm your heart, then talk."
Then Dipasena drank the water his wife gave him until it was finished until finally, he heard a loud burp.
"Nyai ..." Dipasena's voice sounded calmer.
"Yes ... what do you want to say? Speak now ...!" said Nyai Dipasena while sitting beside her husband, while her palms seemed to massage his husband's shoulders.
"I just came from prime minister Badrika's house to find out about King Jayantaka's plan to give Adhinata a new position."
"Then has Jayantaka determined what position to give to Adhinata?" asked Nyai Dipasena.
"It's Nyai," answered Dipasena briefly.
"What position is that?"
"King Jayantaka will appoint Adhinata to be the representative prime minister of the Karma Jaya Kingdom."
"What do you mean by being the representative of prime minister Badrika?" asked Nyai Dipasena to clarify.
"That's right Nyai, and it is an illegal act that has been carried out by majesty Jayantaka."
"Is it illegal? Isn't that even good? Because it means that majesty was responsive by preparing a replacement for Badrika, who was indeed old enough to become a prime minister."
