Chapter 17: chapter 17 - Chief and seven Panglima After leaving Taufik, Jaan quickly goes to his Tribe, he needs to report this whole Incident to his Chief.
-----
Although they live in modern times, many tribes across the world still live in seclusion.
they live in seclusion for two reasons, first is to Preserve their traditional culture, So that their culture doesn't disappear because of modernization, and Two is to Preserve the nearly extinct spirits because the MANA contaminated, so they chose to stay where MANA was a bit pure, so the spirit could survive.
The Dai-Yak Tribe is one who chose to live in seclusion.
Once before, they tried to open themselves up to the outside world, but the results did not end well.
------
When the Dai-yak Tribe tried to open up to the outside world, the one who welcomed them first was the Rune Family.
A long time ago the Rune Family was not as strong as they are now, so the relationship went smoothly, without any obstacles.
-----
At that time, the Dai-Yak princess still didn't know anything and was curious about the outside world, because From the moment she could remember, she was always in the village of her Tribe.
The head of the Rune Family at that time had three sons, and the youngest was Argus, the eldest and the middle had already married, only leaving Argus who was still single.
because the Tribe Princess and Argus were the same age, they quickly got close.
Seeing their children become close, the rune family head had an idea, then told the chief of the Dai-Yak Tribe about his idea.
'As proof of our intimacy, Why don't we get our two kids married? in that way, not only as partners in business but we can become family too, so what do you think, chief?'
The chief didn't think that idea was too bad, but the problem was, that he only had one daughter, And he didn't want to ignore his child's happiness for something like 'friendship' with someone else, So he had to talk to his daughter first, before making a decision.
The Princess Tribe, who Heard that news, was happy, thinking that she was able to marry Argus made her happy.
in her eyes Argus was a good person and kind to anybody, The thought of her getting married to such a person, of course, she was happy And immediately agreed to that marriage.
but one thing she doesn't know is Beyond that innocent face that Argus is showing, he hiding a very deep darkness, he only doesn't show it yet.
Seeing his daughter is willing, the chief can't do anything.
Heard that the Rune Family Head is very happy.
And then just like that, Argus and the Tribe princess get married, and after that, the bond between the two is getting stronger day by day.
and not long after that their first child is born, everyone at the Tribe and the Rune family is very happy about this news
But problems arise when the Rune family head is dead due to the disease he suffered.
of course, the oldest will take his place as the Rune family head, But Argus doesn't like that, so he secretly makes a poison he had learned from his wife's book and then gives it to his two brothers for food.
Because the poison is so Lethal, his two brothers are instantly dead, of course, To avoid suspicion Argus also takes the poison, but only the one which was not too dangerous.
At first, Argus's wife, the Tribe princess is the main suspect, But with Argus's strong denial, the Princess is free of the allegations, and the culprit is never known.
But something changed when Argus's son, Rijal who at the time was 10 years old, found some box in his mom belonged, he then gave that box to his Father, then when they opened the box they found a bottle and a book.
After being analyzed the bottle contains the same poison as the poison that killed two Argus brothers, and the book contains the way of making that poison.
All according to Argus' plan, with his wife taking all the blame, he with a "heavy heart" Has to imprison his wife, but only Argus knows where the prison is.
And just like that, the dai-yak tribe is unable to do anything because the evidence is so obvious, but they remain convinced that she can't do all of this.
but since imprisoned, news about their Tribe princess has not been heard until now.
But then they heard, that if they killed someone for argus and got the artifact that person had, they would be given news about their Tribe's princess.

"Where is the chief? I have to tell him something important"
After sending his man to the shaman jaan quickly goes to meet the chief, to tell him all he knows.
"The chief is inside, you can go in"
Jaan quickly goes inside to meet the chief who is discussing something with the Tribe elder, the elder is what we call "Panglima" Stop their discussion with the chief and then look at Jaan.
"Jaan, are your mission is done?"
"No, Panglima, we have failed that mission, please Forgive us"
"You fail? do you know how important this mission is" He said disappointed in Jaan when he heard he failed the mission, but also sad.
" chief, the Rune family fooled us, the Information we got is wrong, the person he ordered us to kill is very strong, but luckily he was kind enough not to kill us after we attacked him"
Jaan bowed his head.
"chief, Panglima, I have disappointed you, I'm sorry"
"The information is wrong?, that damn Rune family, I already suspect them when they said, they will give us information about our princess so easily like that",
One of the Panglima said.
"Chief, we can't just stay quiet like this, we have to do something"
One of the seven Panglima said to the chief, he had had enough of the Rune family's deed and couldn't stand it anymore.
"Sword Panglima, you know we can't do that, he has our weakness, So we can not act recklessly, all of it has is time"
The chief said, then look at Jaan.
"Jaan, do you know who your target name is, we have to thank him, for not killing all of you, later"
"Yes, chief, I know his name, he said his name is Taufik D'Archy Hidayat if I'm not wrong"
"!!!"
Hearing the name "Hidayat" The chief and the seven Panglima have a surprised expression.
But Jaan who is looking down can't see their expression.
"Hi-Hidayat?, are you sure he said Hidayat?"
The chief asked, "Hidayat" was a surname they can never forget because not many can use the surname "Hidayat".
the "Hidayat" they know and never forget is from The Tribe in Sulawesi island, The Bou-Gis Tribe.
"Yes, I'm sure is Hidayat, something wrong, chief?"
"No, nothing wrong, you can go, about the Rune family, we'll do something about it, so go rest for now"
"Yes, thank you chief, I will take my leave"
After Jaan is gone, the seven Panglima and the chief look at each other, don't know what to say, but not long after that, one of the seven Panglima begins the conversation. Seaʀᴄh the Novelƒire.n(e)t website on G00gle to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
"We don't hear it wrong, right? He said "Hidayat" Right?"
"Yeah, he said that but from what I know The "Hidayat " From the Bou-Gis Tribe, is almost extinct, so is Impossible for the Bou-Gis Tribe to let them out of Sulawesi island, so why he is here, on our land?"
"You know The Bou-Gis, right? They always like to roam around, so maybe_"
"No, is not possible, you know the "Hidayat" Is like royalty in the Bou-Gis Tribe, so is Impossible for the Bou-Gis Tribe to let them roam around"
"But I said maybe, just maybe"
"Even if it's like that, it's something Impossible"
"..."
"..."
Looking at his seven Panglima, Argue with each other, the chief just massages his head.
'We have our own problem, you know? but you guys just discuss other Tribe problems, instead of us'
"Okay is enough, you guys enough, let's forget about The Bou-Gis Tribe for now, and Let's talk about what we have to do with Rune Family first, okay? "
"... Yeah"
"You right"
"Okay"
"Hmmm"
"..."

Sering all of his Panglima agreed then they began their discussion about what action they have to take about Rune's Family...
