Blood In the Ancestral Land
Chapter 32

This is not bad luck but the natural hereditary blood that is inherited. Meeting his biological father even brought a new catastrophe in Alundra's life. Today he was slammed into a giant cage. Alundra's eyes did not blink looking at the giant animal that Kumetra's lady-in-waiting had told him about.

On this day, right at the age of seventeen he could see firsthand the figure of the greatest ruling animal of the heritage of the ancestral land of the earthkeeper. From a long time ago, he imagined what the animals were talking about.

Alundra managed to untie the chains that were binding at Garuda's feet. He pushed the body of the princess gesturing for her to climb onto his body. Flapping its wings stretched out from the ground, Garuda's voice boomed in the capture of the queen's signal looking up at the sky.

Smelling the scent of victory, the queen rolled the waves looking for Garuda. Animals he had been waiting for. His biggest mistake in the past gave trust to Tumenggung who turned out to be a betrayal to him.

Garuda welcomed his arrival in the air. On her back is Alundra, she apologizes to the queen and says she wants to go back to Wanua ubun to save Suga and Kumetra. The two trusted escorts were arrested until they were tortured all out.

King Tumenggung issued a giant white iron weapon attacking the queen. He threw a giant trap in the palace courtyard. For the second time Garuda was entangled. The queen's anger rolled the waves drowning the troops of Wanua Ubun. The wars of the two kingdoms were witnessed by a very cloudy sky.

Half the stealth forces were killed on the white iron weapon. The king of Tumenggung playing cunning, he shot the queen of Diajeng from various directions to make a trap in a row.

“Mother! Watch out!” shouted the princess.

Alundra ran out his arms. Covering the body of the queen, three large arrows pierced through her body. The queen wrapped herself and alundra in the power of the black stone mustika. He did not expect the princess to save him from death.

“Mother, do you now want to call you a child?” said the princess stammering.

For the first time in decades, she returned to shed tears. The queen nodded her head. He hugged the princess' body carrying her one of the giant coral reefs. He left the princess on both the ladies and his two bodyguards. The one raising the tsunami waters drowned the entire Wanua Ubun army. He broke the body of the Tumenggung king with one hand. The enemy's blood has paid off but not with his curse.

Garuda flapped his wings, he felt a sense of uneasiness and sadness in the queen's heart. Queen Diajeng expends all her strength to bring the princess back to life. His struggle was witnessed by all the demons on the face of the earth.

He had tried three times but the princess' body was getting cold and stiff. Suddenly there was the sound of laughter from the old woman who offered her a choice.

“Queen, if I manage to revive the princess, are you willing to give up all your power to me?” asked the old woman while laughing out loud.

“Whatever it is my son comes back to life. Quickly what are you waiting for, wake my daughter Alundra!” sniff the queen.

“Queen! The land of Mangkubuana and Garuda will perish if you do not control it. Ruler of the last line” Suga said.

“For what I live to be the greatest ruler in the whole country if my son is gone.”

The old woman was the incarnation of a human-shaped demon. He and the demons gather energy to revive the dead by implanting another spirit into the human body.

“Rise! I'm calling you! hiyaaa!”

Shuh_

“Bank! I'm calling you! hiyaa! Rise up and hear my call!”

The princess did not move one bit. The dead souls entering his body were in vain. Even the greatest demon lord could not wake the human body. Realizing she was the princess cursed. So the old woman stopped transferring her powers. He was afraid that his strength was sucked out into that already frozen body.

“Quick old lady, I can't wait any longer!” the queen snapped in tears.

“Pardon my servant, great queen. I tried it but__” said the old woman lowered her head.

“That's you from before me or I'll kill you into flying ashes! Go!”

The heart-wrenching atmosphere of the funeral. He cannot be saved in any way. The human body must be buried properly. The princess's final resting place is behind the royal palace grounds of Mangkubuana.

“Come move the body or there will be prolonged chaos in Mangkubuana!” said the soothsayers who witnessed the princess' funeral.

Nothing could stop the queen's will, she could not part with the princess even if she could only see her grave. The soothsayers meditated into the temple praying that the heaven of the earth was spared from calamity.

This land is divided into dark and light sides. Darkness was more dominant after the black ancestors rose to the earth. The curse of the princess' body was still stuck in her body. The symbol behind his back every night takes its toll haunting the inhabitants of the Mangkubuana region.

Starting from the bustling market during the day, a small child screaming in pain at the pull of a monstrous figure flew towards the palace.

“Satan! He's heading towards the palace. Chase him!” shouted the people.

The boy disappeared after heading towards the palace backyard. The guard demons were astonished by the events that made the country uproar. Suga observed the grave of the princess Alundra. Lots of blood on the tombstone. Next to his grave is a skull. There was a little boy's shirt not far away.

“What happened to the princess's grave?” suga muttered.

While in the queen Diajeng throw themselves in the sea. He formed a giant belly button to drown himself. Garuda wanted to enter but crashed in his magic barrier. The giant beast could only revolve above the sky looking for the gap of the navel it could enter.

A black mustika stone stick shone within the ocean. The flaming red brought the queen of the southern rulers to see herself. He wanted his death to be faster and his body to be buried next to Alundra's tomb.

“You are the last ruler of the ancestors of the earth's stakeholders. How could I kill you? even you will live eternally as a stakeholder of the world” said the queen.

“My life has been a mess. I have failed to be a leader of the country nor a mother who cannot take care of her child.”

“All cause and effect are written. You cannot oppose it. Go back to your country.”
