2026-03-13 18:00:46Darwin, who was truly furious, slammed his desk hard.
Brakk!! Several items on the desk were immediately thrown and fell to the floor. Glasses, folders, and even ashtrays rolled around in disarray. Darwin's face turned red with uncontrollable anger. "How dare you!" he growled breathlessly. Meanwhile, Rinto and Malik, who were standing not far from the desk, just looked at each other for a moment. They knew their boss's temper very well. When Darwin was this angry, there was usually someone who would become his scapegoat. Rinto then stepped forward slightly. "Boss, calm down. We'll take care of Zaqqy." Darwin stared at him sharply. "Don't just take care of him," he said in a cold voice that sounded even more frightening. "Finish him off if necessary." "Yes, boss." He then turned to face his other men. "Malik, you and three others come with me. We're going after him now. Don't let him get too far." "Yes, sir," they replied in unison. Rinto then pointed to two others. "You two stay here. Guard this place. Don't go into the boss's room unless you're called. The boss is furious." "Yes, sir," they replied in unison. Rinto, Malik, and the other three immediately hurried down the stairs to the ground floor. Meanwhile, at the front of the café, Zaqqy was already rushing Rahayu outside. Seeing their condition, Tono was immediately shocked. "Astaghfirullahaladzim! Sis, your clothes!" he exclaimed in panic. He immediately ran to the guard post and grabbed his jacket. "Here, sis. Wear this first!" he said, handing the jacket to Rahayu. "Th-thank you, sir..." The girl immediately put it on with trembling hands. Her face was pale, and her eyes were still teary. "Get on, Rahayu," said Zaqqy as he started his motorbike. "I'll take you home now." Rahayu nodded quickly and got on the back seat. Zaqqy then turned to Tono. "Ton, I've been fired. Mr Darwin has gone too far. He almost..." Zaqqy didn't finish his sentence. Tono understood what he meant. "I understand," he muttered softly with a tense face. "I'll go first." Zaqqy's old motorbike sped away from the café courtyard. Not long after, Rinto and his men arrived downstairs. They looked around, but Zaqqy was nowhere to be seen. "Where is he?!" Rinto snapped at Tono. Tono, who was still standing near the guard post, immediately tensed up. "He... he's gone, sir," he replied nervously. Rinto narrowed his eyes and pulled Tono's collar. "Where did he go?" he snapped. "I don't know, sir. He said he got fired," replied Tono. Rinto snorted in annoyance. "Let's go!" he ordered. They immediately got into the black Kijang car parked in the yard. The car engine started immediately and the vehicle sped away. Tono, who was starting to feel uneasy, immediately grabbed his mobile. His hand trembled slightly as he dialled Zaqqy’s number. A few seconds later, the call connected. “Hello?” Zaqqy’s voice came from the other end. “What’s up, Ton? I’m on the road right now.” “Listen, Zaqqy!” Tono said quickly. “Be careful! Mr Darwin’s men are chasing you! There are many of them, Zaq! Five people in a car!" "What?! Why?" "I'm serious! They just left here! Be careful." "Yes, Ton. Thank you for letting me know." The call was immediately disconnected. Tono stared at his mobile phone with a worried look on his face. "Oh God... I hope nothing happens to him," he muttered as he rubbed his chest. Meanwhile, on a relatively quiet road, Zaqqy was still riding his motorbike at a moderate speed. Rahayu was still holding tightly onto the back of his jacket. "Bang..." Rahayu's voice was soft. "Yes?" "Thank you..." Zaqqy smiled slightly, even though Rahayu couldn't see him from behind. "It's okay, don't worry about it." But suddenly, from a distance, a car was seen speeding towards them. It was Rinto's black Kijang. "I think it's them..." Zaqqy muttered. The car approached quickly. Brakk!! The car grazed the back of Zaqqy's motorbike. The motorbike immediately swerved and fell. "Aaaaa!" Rahayu screamed as their bodies were dragged along the asphalt. "Arrgh..." Zaqqy groaned in pain. Zaqqy's body was also thrown from the motorbike, causing pain to spread to his wrists and legs. The young man tried to stand up but was unsteady. The car stopped not far from them. The car door opened and five men quickly got out. Rinto immediately walked towards Zaqqy, who was still trying to get up. "How dare you make the boss angry!" he shouted. Zaqqy tried to stand up again, even though his body ached and he was still a little unsteady. "You guys are out of line!" he said with heavy breathing. Bugh! A hard blow struck his head. Zaqqy's vision immediately went blurry, and Malik and the other two quickly caught his body before it fell. "Get him in!" Rinto ordered. "No! Please! Please!"

he remarked to Stella without looking up from the paper in front of him.“Yes, there was an impromptu meeting this morning, so I had to hurry. Oh, by the way, here’s a dinner invitation from the Dinar Lodaya family for you,” said Divo as he placed the golden-yellow invitation card on the table.A strong scent of sandalwood immediately wafted through the air, causing Stella to frown. “Why does it smell so overpowering?”“That’s the Dinar Lodaya family’s signature scent. You know they’re absolutely mad about the smell of sandalwood,” replied Divo.Stella examined the details of the invitation. Her eyes widened slightly when she saw the date. “Today? Seven o’clock this evening? Why so sudden? I thought it was tomorrow or the day after.”“It was originally scheduled for the day after tomorrow, but the date’s been brought forward. If you’re tired and don’t want to go, that’s fine,” Divo offered.“Of course I have to go! There’ll be plenty of high-society contacts there, including th

Stella was slightly taken aback by Angela’s news. She gave a faint smile whilst nodding slowly.“All right, I’ll check later to see whether the invitation has reached the Syailendra residence or not. Oh, and Mum and Dad are also leaving for Germany soon,” said Stella.“Are your parents planning to meet the Wisanggeni family because of the news of Nilam Harum Cempaka’s return?” asked Angela probingly.“Exactly, Angela. It seems your predictions are always spot on.”“That’s only to be expected, as my Mum and Dad are also going to visit them. I don’t know what’s actually going on, but they say the Wisanggeni family’s youngest daughter has been eagerly awaited for a very long time. Not just thirty years, apparently… hundreds of years,” whispered Angela seriously.“What do you mean?” Stella frowned, looking intently at her friend. Angela glanced hesitantly towards Zaqqy, who was standing not far from them. Realising her friend’s unease, Stella reassured her, “Don’t worry, he’s my ve

“We’re fine, son. Don’t worry too much about it. We’re well looked after here, too.”“Thank goodness for that. Zaqqy suddenly thought of Mum and Dad. How are things financially for the next few days?”“We’re fine financially, son. There’s enough for Mum and Dad. You don’t need to worry; Mum’s still doing the washing and ironing. Alhamdulillah, every time I come home I always get a side dish, sometimes two packets of rice—enough for the two of us,” his mum replied reassuringly.“Thank goodness. The main thing is that Mum and Dad are well. Zaqqy hopes Dad can hold out until payday, so that Zaqqy can take Dad to hospital for his operation.”“Yes, son. Let’s pray for the best; may Allah make things easier for us. Most importantly, you must stay healthy over there.”“Thank you, Mum. I hope everything goes smoothly. I’ll hang up now, Mum; it’s time to look after my employer.”“Yes, Zaqqy. Be careful at work, son. Look after your health, eat well, and don’t stay up late.”“Yes, Mum.

“Get some rest. It’s no easy task to track down the master of the Brajamusti spell.” Dwi Toro fell silent for a moment before plucking up the courage to ask, “Sir, to be honest, I’d like to know… just how important is the master of the Brajamusti spell to us?” “Of course he’s important. It is said that the original master of the spell was a knight who vanished without a trace. He possessed the Three Mustika, the whereabouts of which remain unknown to this day. If my hunch is correct—that the young man’s spell originates from that knight—then we need him to obtain those Three Mustika,” explained the Chief at length. Dwi Toro was stunned. He lay silent on his bed as the Chief walked away, leaving him alone. “What sort of knight?” muttered Dwi Toro. He got up and stood in front of the one-and-a-half-metre-tall teak mirror. Dwi Toro looked at his reflection, clad only in his underpants. He saw a bluish bruise on his chest. “The blow from the Brajamusti spell… it could even leave

Lesmana immediately went into his younger brother’s private room. He saw the remnants of the ritual performed by Dwi Toro. With a deep sigh, he walked out onto the balcony and gazed up at the night sky. His eyes fell upon a cigarette butt at the edge of the balcony. He picked it up; there was still a little tobacco left in it. Lesmana lit it and took a deep drag.Instantly, Lesmana’s clairvoyant abilities kicked in. He tried to peer through time to see what his younger brother had been doing. However, Lesmana was startled.“Why did that flash of vision disappear right here in this room? What was he actually doing?” Lesmana wondered. “And that young man… why was he being targeted by Dwi Toro?”He stamped out the cigarette butt and returned to the room. Although the traces of the ritual had been cleaned away, the large mirror that usually stood there was now nothing but shards. Lesmana approached the broken glass and saw the splattered bloodstains. He scraped a little of the dried

“The Wisanggenis? Aren’t they that mysterious family?” Stella frowned. “Yes. They live in Germany. Rumour has it their youngest daughter is coming to Indonesia soon. Before that happens, Papa has to visit them. You must catch her attention. If you can win her heart, the Syailendra family’s power will flourish even more. Do you understand?” “What do you mean by making me their pet, Papa? I don’t want to be under someone else’s control. I want my own power,” protested Stella. “It’s different, darling. The Wisanggeni family are very different. Their youngest daughter is no ordinary woman.” “What do you mean, Papa?” “I can’t explain much because it’s a secret. But once you’ve met her, you’ll understand who she is and just how powerful she is. You’ll see for yourself. Let’s wrap this conversation up. Don’t linger—it’s late. We’ll talk about it again another time.” After the discussion about the Wisanggeni family had ended, they remained seated together in the living room. Hardin
