Prince Without Crown
The mystery of who is right
That night, it appeared that the five horsemen stopped their horses and jumped down from the horse's back.
The five men now led their horses while tracing the outskirts of the forest.
"The Golden Kujang's back. Look up ahead. Looks like someone is resting there. Look carefully! Isn't that the light from the campfire?"
"Let's see who they are" said one of the five horsemen.
They immediately pulled the reins of their horse mounts and tethered them to one of the trees not far from the edge of the forest.
The five men were now deflating their bodies and then darting up one of the trees and then moving back from one branch to the other tree branch towards the bonfire they saw earlier without making any sound. This is a sign that the science of lightening their bodies has reached a high stage.
Meanwhile, under a very large tree, the, it appears that five people dressed in Galuh kingdom soldiers were sitting around the campfire to eliminate the cold that began to stab into the bone because this forest area was indeed very cold if it was night.
These five people immediately engaged in a very serious chat.
"Larkin. Why did you come back to see us? Did you get a new assignment?" Ask one of the four men. These are Sadewa's subordinate soldiers who were deliberately placed in the forest as scouts.
"really. I have the task of the Gusti Prince to spy on the movement of troops from the Earth Spikes" replied Larkin.
"Is Gusti Prince also leaving orders to you?"
"No. Gusti Prince only gave orders to me, "larkin replied.
"Oh. Then forgive us if we can't accompany you on your trip,"
"Actually, it makes no difference if you're here or lurking alone. Our goal is the same. Because we are both stalking the Earth Spikes and reporting to Gusti Prince," they said.
"Why don't you tell Gusti Prince the truth about Commander Pratisara's betrayal?"
"It's not that easy, buddy. You know what his position is? He is a Commander. He is back in a badly injured state. While I, not a bit scratched. But I do believe. As much as he hid the carcass, the stench would still be smelled, too" Larkin said.
"Then, where are you going, Larkin?"
"I'll disguise myself as a Warrior of the Earth Spikes. After the day comes, I will sneak out of the army and will bring news to Gusti Prince Indra Mahesa about the movement of the enemy" Larkin explained.
"Hopefully you make it, Larkin!"
"Thank you. If so, I beg you first," said Larkin then immediately lead his horse to leave the four subordinate soldiers of Sadewa.
"The Golden Kujang's back. You hear that?" Asked one of the five men hiding on top of a tree right where the soldiers were lighting a bonfire.
"Yes. Woe if it's like this. Is Pratisara really a traitor?"
"Entah kakang's. If this is true, then the man's play is perfect,"
"Silver and iron. Let's get back into the army, then tell all we heard to Gusti Prince Indra Mahesa,"
"Cari kakang's. The faster, the better!" The silver Kujang.
Not long after, they were now darting back in the direction from where they had come.
