The king sent his best soldier to arrest Calonarang. But, they failed. Then, the king called Mpu Baradah. The King asked for his help.
Mpu Baradah sent his student Mpu Bahula to Girah Village. Mpu Baradah told Mpu Bahula to propose Ratna Mangali. Calonarang was very happy when Mpu Bahula proposed Ratna Mangali. She knew that people would not talk about her daughter anymore. She gave her daughter a big wedding party.
One day, Mpu Bahula asked Ratna Mangali to steal her mother's magic book. When Calonarang was asleep, Ratna Mangali stole her mother's magic book and gave it to her husband. Then Mpu Bahula gave the book to Mpu Baradah.
After he knew Calonarang's magic secret, Mpu Baradah came to Girah Village. Calonarang and Mpu Baradah had a fight. Calonarang lost the fight because she didn't have her magical book anymore.
