The Part 27 Mangkuto


"Yes sir."


With sincerity of the man's heart, he lent Seruni a plastic bowl. Must be small but, Seruni was feeling a little happy, because he could take water for the Grandpa's treatment.


After getting water, then Seruni directly climbed to the top of the cliff. Slowly, Seruni undressed Grandpa. However, how surprised he was when Grandpa's clothes were opened. It turned out that there were so many similar wounds on his body.


Some have even been eaten by caterpillars. Patiently and compassionately, Seruni treated the grandfather sincerely. His fortitude and care, has made Grandpa's heart amazed him.


The nobility of Budi Seruni, clearly seen by the Grandfather. Because almost every day, the beautiful girl was always by his side.


"What's your name, son?" ask Grandpa to Seruni.


"Cake Cherry," replied the girl innocently.


"Your name is so beautiful, where are you going?"


"I'm just a Cake traveler."


"Yes, a traveler must have a purpose in life, why would he want to travel."


"I want to find, whereabouts of my two biological parents. They have long been kidnapped by the Queen's gang of flirtatious, stealth who always look for the victims of the villagers. At that time I was a baby" Seruni explained to the grandfather.


"Firtat queen? yeah, Grandpa's heard that name. He's a ruthless demon, abducting baby girls to make a mash."


"Yes, right, Cake. He also brought my parents, said one ustadz, my parents are still alive. But the Queen flirtatious makes him, a slave."


"Yes, may your good intentions, who want to meet your parents, be quickly granted by God. Grandpa will pray for you."


"Love you," replied a short seruni.


Actually, the name Seruni has long been known by everyone. No one should have seen her face, but everyone knew, Seruni had a very beautiful face.


Behind his veil, it turned out that he stored a million skills that other warriors did not have. Besides being beautiful, Seruni also has good character and ethics.


His intelligence in medicine, quickly spread to almost every village. The people, always wanted to meet him. Seruni never expected anything in return, in helping others.


Sometimes, he himself extended help first. Likewise when he was treating mangkuto, a magic ascetic, who was in the hill Indarung.


It had been days, weeks and even five full moon, blistering wounds on Grandpa Mangkuto's body, had dried up and had no smell anymore.


"Germany here," said the Grandpa.


"Yes, what's wrong?" tanya Seruni wanted to know.


"We've been living on this hill for a long time, if Grandpa is not wrong, we have five full moon together. But grandpa never, ever, saw the face behind your veil. You don't mind if Grandpa sees your face, do you?"


"I'm sorry cake, not that I don't want to look my face at Grandpa. But I'm afraid, the devil will take advantage of this."


"Grandfather understands and Grandpa will take care of your marwah, as a Muslim girl," said the Grandpa.


"Why the hell, Grandpa so insistent on wanting to see my face?"


"The word of the man, the veiled swordsman, was a disciple of the sheikh Abdullah. Adopted son of Datuk malelo. She's a magical girl, pick a match and have a good mind."


"Grandfather knows where?"


"This grandfather is an ascetic son."


"Hm...! means Grandpa already knows, my origins?"


"It's not just that, Grandpa also knows, that you have unparalleled medical knowledge. He said the face of the veiled girl was very pretty, prettier than the full moon."


"Actually, who is this Grandpa? why does Grandpa know my origins?" tanya Seruni was getting curious.


"Don't you know yourself that Grandpa is a Sage. So, whatever's going on out there, Grandpa knows better than any other warrior."


"Is that really so?"


"Remember one thing Seruni, the incident in Tarakan Village, will invite big problems for you later."


"Is that really a cake?"


"Yes son. But never mind, Grandpa will help you if you're in trouble later. But, will you fulfill Grandpa's request?"


"Request, what request is Cake?"


"Didn't Grandpa tell you earlier, Grandpa wanted to see the face behind your veil."


"Alright Cake, if that's what Grandpa wants. But I'm leaving, after I open this veil. Because I don't want to be with Grandpa anymore, after Grandpa sees my face."


"Why should that be?"


"Because if Grandpa has seen my face, I don't want to be with that person anymore. Not just Grandpa, but to everyone who was with me and saw my face firsthand, he would never see me again in that place."


"Is that so?"


"Yes Kek, consider it first, if Grandpa really wants to see my face."


"My decision is already round, son, I have to look at your face, whatever risk I'll take."


"Alright, I will open my veil for Grandpa" said Seruni, taking off the veil on her face.


"God...! I'm not dreaming, am I? it means right people say, if you have a very beautiful face, the same with your ethics."


"Grandfather praised me too much, for me I'm a nobody" Seruni replied in a soft voice.


"But Grandpa was serious. All my life Grandpa, just this time Grandpa, saw a girl who was kind and had a very pretty face."


"Gee... Grandpa, I'm just an ordinary girl, I'm just an ordinary wandering girl."


After Seruni finished speaking, suddenly just one strangeness happened to Grandpa Mangkuto. His stooped and wrinkled body, turned instantly into a dashing and clean-faced man.


At that very instant, Seruni was shocked and she instantly moved away from the man before her.


"You who?" tanya Seruni wanted to know.


"You don't know me?" asked the old Grandfather, who was also astonished, when he saw Seruni startled.


"Where is Grandpa Mangkuto, who I medicated just now?"


"I am Grandpa Mangkuto, whom you have treated earlier."


"No way, the old man, sick, old, ugly and wrinkled. And you, ah...! no way," replied Seruni in disbelief.


"Germany, I am the ascetic's grandfather, I was cursed ten years ago, by my great-grandfather. Because secretly, I've studied black magic, which is our family's taboo."


"Well, it turns out that you have a handsome and handsome face, Grandpa Mangkuto. I can't believe that a person as handsome as you, can change shape, become an old Grandpa, and smell bad."
