"I don't think you can just bluff them, My King," said Rangda.
The thinly dressed beautiful girl was sitting casually on one of the chairs in the dining room.
At that time, Pramudya Antaguna was eating his meal served by half a dozen palace maids.
"As far as I know," continued the girl, "they are too loyal to Abhimanyu. And you know what that means?"
Pramudya just grinned while chewing the food in his mouth.
"They will not back down until Abhimanyu appears and meets them."
"I know that," replied the king. He took a drink from his golden cup. "The message was only meant to make them even more agitated. That's my real goal."
"You are truly ruthless, my King." Rangda giggled. "Though their number isn't that many, you could just attack and destroy them with your much larger number of soldiers. But no, you're still playing with their feelings. Extraordinary!"
