The peak of Mount Sumbing that morning looked foggy due to the heavy rain that fell last night. Almost all the leaves of the trees on the mountain still looked wet and dewy.
Arya, who was busy practicing, then stopped and walked towards the hut when he received the teacher's call.
The hut was not too big, but had stairs that were about 5 feet high. Arya climbed the stairs where Nyi Konde Perak was sitting cross-legged inside the hut.
Upon arriving at the hut, Arya also sat cross-legged in front of Nyi Konde Perak, not long after the eyes of the old woman in front of him opened after she had narrowed them a few moments ago.
"Why did Grandma suddenly call me? Even though I haven't finished practicing this morning," asked Arya.
"I think you've practiced enough, all the knowledge that I passed on to you seems to have been mastered well. I called you to tell you that it's time for you to come down the mountain, my student," said Nyi Konde Perak who turned out to be Arya's teacher.
"Then what task will I do because Grandma asked me to come down the mountain immediately? Should I go to Andalas Island first to look for my mother?" Arya asked again.
"Hmmm, of course you don't have to look for your mother on Andalas Island first. In Java there are many problems that occur, robbery, oppression and rape carried out by depraved humans. Battles everywhere are fighting for power and that causes many innocent humans to become victims, you must be able to sort out which ones you should defend and which ones you must destroy later," said Nyi Konde Perak.
"But I will also be allowed to look for my mother on Andalas Island, right Grandma?"
"Of course Arya, because on Andalas Island there is often chaos by irresponsible hands. They are generally warriors from the black group who always like to do evil to achieve their desires, you must be careful, they are not only cruel to kill anyone but are also good at devising cunning strategies."
"Okay Grandma, I will always remember your advice."
"In the jungle of martial arts, a warrior always has a nickname in addition to the name that is attached to him, the nickname is usually given by a respected figure such as a King or Teacher. For that reason, I give you the nickname Eagle Swordsman, the goal is not to show off because you have high knowledge but rather a nickname that will make it easier for anyone you have ever helped to remember you later," said Nyi Konde Perak.
"Oh, just like Grandma who was nicknamed Nyi Konde Perak, is that so?" asked Arya.
"Yes, that's right, but my nickname is not from my Teacher but from a King who I once helped defend his Kingdom from enemy attacks."
"Then will I bring Brahma along on my journey to uphold truth on this earth, Grandma?"
The young man remembered a very large white eagle. Since he was little, Arya had always played and been guarded by the eagle when Nyi Konde Perak traveled for a moment leaving the peak of Mount Sumbing. Because the eagle was so big, Brahma was even able to carry several adults on his back while flying and was also able to carry two mother buffaloes into the air.
Brahma will also easily kill anyone he sees while flying in the air causing chaos on earth, even though he is not good at speaking like humans, he understands every word spoken by Nyi Konde Perak and Arya.
Nyi Konde Perak was silent, before finally speaking, "Hmm, you shouldn't be spoiled. You can call Brahma whenever you want as long as you are in a really desperate situation like using the White Eagle Sword," replied Nyi Konde Perak.
Arya nodded. "Okay Grandma, I will not carelessly use the White Eagle Sword or call Brahma."
"Now go my student. Always follow your heart in every step you take, if you have taken a step, never look back. Remember Arya, always hold fast to the mandate to uphold the truth and eradicate arrogance on this earth," Nyi Konde advised.
"Okay Grandma, I will use the knowledge that you inherited to defend the truth. Thank you for all this time, Grandpa, for nurturing and training me to become a warrior, I don't know how I will repay Grandpa's kindness," said Arya.
"I never expected anything in return, Arya, by you still holding on to using the knowledge you have on the right path, that's enough to make me happy."
"I'm leaving, Grandpa," said Arya while bowing and kissing both of his teacher's hands, Nyi Konde Perak smiled and then rubbed her student's shoulders.
After Arya got down from the hut, he immediately walked down the slope of Mount Sumbing while whistling.
As his teacher had suggested, Arya never looked back towards the hut where Nyi Konde Perak was still sitting cross-legged, narrowing her eyes again like someone who was meditating.
A warrior with high knowledge certainly does not have the same way of descending a mountain slope as ordinary humans in general, Arya's body was like light cotton flashing from the top of one tree branch to the tip of another tree branch until in an instant he had arrived in the valley.
*****
Before long, Arya arrived in the valley of Mount Sumbing.
The rocky creek made him jump and plant his feet on one rock after another. Arya arrived at the other side.
As if the challenges had not stopped, after crossing a rocky creek, Arya was faced with a wilderness, the trees in the forest were very dense and had lush leaves.
Strangely, he felt an uncomfortable atmosphere as he explored the wilderness.
The teacher's words to uphold the truth wherever he was suddenly came to mind.
As a Warrior, he has promised to complete all tasks to eradicate all the anger of evil people or black warriors who always cause trouble on the island of Java. After that, he will look for his mother on Andalas Island.
Secretly, the young man prayed in his heart. "Hopefully my trip will be as smooth as when I descended Mount Sumbing."
