Ch-245

Cyrus entered the study after ordering the food.

"Bhairava… Are you happy?" Shakti asked.

"Yes, Sis," he answered.

"He is here," she said suddenly.

"Sis?" he asked.

"Arthur is a part of his soul. When he raped her, his soul traces were left in her body. After a part of her soul merged in her body, her dark side of soul felt triggered at the presence of his soul traces. So… it started fighting with his soul. This led to a change in her behavior. Unknowingly she grew disrespectful as her soul felt frustrated as it couldn't take his soul's traces. The same thing happened with Reggie too," Shakti said, shocking him.

"Sis… You mean… he knew about Raudra Muki's rebirth even before?" Cyrus asked, feeling shocked.

"That's the harsh truth," she said.

"How?" he asked.

"Even if you and I get together, we can't take him down. Even our Clan Master couldn't do it. Do you think this thing could be hidden from him? Even if it is hidden, he is practicing black magic, his evil souls would let him know what was happening with us," Shakti said.

"Sis… is there a way to take him down?" he asked.

"Only she can do it." She replied.

"Why? Now… she is just a mere human. She doesn't remember anything," he asked her, not understanding how a weak woman could kill him.

"Don't forget your wife is the General of the Heaven army. She fought many battles at a very young age and made many achievements. If she starts practicing her previous skills, she would stand in an equal place as me," Shakti said.

"But… this would happen only if the present King Of Kshatra trains her," Shakti added.

"Can't Sir. Pratap do?" Cyrus asked.

"If he can, he would have been able to stop the marriage between her and Arthur. If he could, he would have been able to stop the rape. He is not capable of training her," Shakti said.

"Then we have to get the present king here," Cyrus said.

"Yes," She replied.

"Sis… Rana reincarnated," Cyrus said, suddenly getting her out of her thoughts.

Shakti fell silent at his words. "How is he?" she asked after a while.

"He is good. Rana is Raudra Muki's brother," he replied.

"Hm…" she responded. Shakti said nothing. She just felt sad at their previous life encounters.

"Sis… I have a way," He said.

"For?" she asked.

"To get the present king of Kshatra here," he said.

"Continue," she said as she waited for him to say something.

"If we make Pratap and Rana go back to the Kshatra kingdom. Rana would be next in line for the throne. The elders would train him. The present king's presence wouldn't be needed much," he said.

"Passable. But risky," Shakti commented.

"Sis… But it's worth a try," he said.

"Do you understand that Rana is a human and he doesn't even know how to fight? Moreover, him taking the throne. Do you think this is possible?" Shakti asked.

"We need to get rid of him. As days passed, he got stronger. If we leave him like this, it would be a threat to the fourteen realms. He has the greedy wish to take my place. If that happens, then it will destroy the earth and other realms too. We have to take a risk here." Cyrus said.

"But…" she wanted to say something.

"No more buts! I will make this happen!" Cyrus said unknowingly, releasing a bit of pressure.

Shakti always looked at him like a little one. Now… at this moment, she felt it. She felt the presence of the king in him. Shakti realized he was the Bhairava Basilisk! She felt pressured at his sudden outburst. For the first time, she doubted Whether she was weaker than him.

"Remember when bad fights with good, the bad may be annihilated but it doesn't mean the good will be saved. There are situations where good died while defeating the bad," Shakti said.

"Sis? What do you mean?" Cyrus asked.

"You will know when the time comes. Protect her well. She is the warrior of the fourteen realms, while from now on you would be the protector of protectors. Take care. Don't even trust the air around you," Shakti said as she looked at a certain place diagonally. She waved her hand in the air. Golden swirls started rotating around her hand. She slashed her hand to the diagonal side in a minute, a shadow sliced into two halves.

"Didn't I say don't even believe the air around you? This is what I mean?" Shakti said as she walked forward to the shadow.

"I will take this," She said and made it into a water drop size. She chanted something. A two inches copper bottle appeared in her right hand.

She locked the 'shadow' in it.

"Sis, this is?" Cyrus asked.

"Didn't I say that man left the traces of his soul in Reggie and Esther?" Shakti answered.

"Because of them… his evil soul can get in here and keep an eye for him," She added further.

"Why Reggie?" Cyrus asked.

Reggie was a mere human. He knew nothing other than messing with Cyrus with Esther. He always makes him go mad by using Esther's favor to him. But… again… There was a nagging feeling inside him where he felt like Reggie was his son. But again… everyone knows Reggie is Harry Brunette and Lucy Clark's son.

Also… Reggie could do magic. And it's pink. His powers were suppressed. Who could do that to him? What's the mystery of this little brat?

Cyrus was interrupted by a doorbell. He went down and took the delivery and paid the bill. When he came back… he saw his sister surveying the whole place.

"I will come back again. Maybe when you are both absent. Try to go out and stay with her. I need to do something in this house," Shakti said.

"I will take my leave," She said as she snatched the cover from him.

"Sis… you will be alright, right?" he asked with concern.

She gave an assuring smile.

"See you," she said and disappeared.
