Prince Without Crown
Chapter 74
"Father, have you ever met or seen firsthand what the Crown Prince of Sri Kemuning kingdom is like?" Prince Indra Mahesa asked the old man.
"No, Den. But clearly, he was a very handsome young man. Virtuous, and love for the kingdom of Galuh. Although he was from Sri Kemuning kingdom," replied the owner of the stall then continued. "Maybe because Gusti's mother Prince was from Galuh's kingdom,"
"Thankful sir. Hopefully, more and more nomads are returning to their home countries to jointly defend the homeland," said Prince Indra Mahesa hopeful.
"That must be Den. There are already two kingdoms that are examples of the indifference of its people. If you were young, you would fight to take up arms" the old man said with enthusiasm.
"Every citizen can fight in his own way, old man. For the young, they will come out to take up arms. For those who were old and had treasures, they could set aside a portion of their treasures to help the struggle. For those who are unable, they can help this struggle with prayer. For the wives, they can take care of the children and take good care of the house. If that was the case, then the ones on the battlefield would have no more worries. Everyone has to play their own part. Only then can victory be achieved with glory," said Prince Indra Mahesa full of meaning.
"That's exactly what you said, young man. Everyone must carry the same burden according to their abilities."
"Oh yeah. Where did this young man come from?" Ask the old man the owner of the shop.
"I'm from the foot of cleft mountain, old man. Come here with the aim of wanting to contribute energy that is not so much," replied Prince Indra with a humble.
"So it turns out. Is this young man from the ranks of warriors? Then, what is this young man's relationship with Galuh's kingdom?" Ask the old man in succession.
"It can be said that, sir. I also studied Kanuragan. But if you say swordsman, I might not dare to bear that title. For her own relationship, my mother came from this Galuh kingdom. While Father, comes from the kingdom of Sri Kemuning," replied prince Indra Mahesa as it is.
"Hehehe. It's just a coincidence, sir. I dare to be likened to Gusti Prince," said Prince Indra Mahesa while laughing crisply.
"I'm sorry young man. If you can tell, what is the name of this young man?" Ask the old man who now feels familiar so change the nickname from Den to young people.
"By chance my name is also Indra, sir. Indra Sontoloyo," replied Prince Indra Mahesa while holding back a laugh.
"Indra Sontoloyo's? I think you've heard that name. Not past the full moon lately there is a young man named Indra Sontoloyo. He destroyed the Duchy of Pitulung. Is that young man you?" Ask the owner of the shop increasingly curious.
"It's not just me, sir. Gusti Senopati Arya Prana was the one who invaded the Duchy of Pitulung. I just follow along. How dare I admit that it was my deed,"
"Well. Not wrong anymore. According to your characteristics, white pants, sleeveless white shirt, and a belt of yellow silk embroidered gold. You must be Indra Sontoloyo who is becoming a byword among the people of Galuh kingdom," said the owner of the stall was very sure.
Prince Indra just smiled as he responded to the words of the old man who owned the stall.
After finishing with a drink, he also paid and immediately said goodbye to the owner of the stall to then continue his steps to explore the village around the city of the king of Galuh kingdom.
