Chapter 18: GOD: THE MYSTERY OF THE ANCIENT GOD PT.2
Just as he finished saying these two words, a dark thick blood red aura began to materialize in his hand and which soon took the form of a sinister and dangerous sword.
Holding the sword tightly in his hand Vardha felt the surge of evil energy that is flowing in the sword in a continous manner.
The evil sword soon began to glow in red color so does Vardha as well and it is because the evil energy flowing inside the sword resonated with the evil energy flowing inside Vardha.
And this resonating resulted in the evil sword bowing it's head before Vardha and recognizing Vardha as it's Master.
Wanting to test the sword Vardha looked at the dining table and then taking leisurely stance he just swinged the sword lightly.
A small wave of blood red color energy slash shoot out from his sword and hit the dining table. This slash effortlessly cut down the dining table in half and then hit the wall and left a wide three meters crack on the wall.
Seeing this Vardha became very happy while his four Chief Priestesses just looked at the thing that happened in front of their eyes with utter devotion and beyond the bounds of happiness.
Because for the both of them it was a show of the power of their GOD which they all witnessed first hand. They all felt themselves to be fortunate for this.
After testing the sword Vardha moved onto test the shield which he has obtained so looked at his Priestesses and told them, "Go and bring the guns from the guards."
Without delaying the Priestesses went to the guards and brought the guns from them and then he told them to shoot him.
Hearing this they all dropped the gun on the ground and themselves fall on their knees on the ground and began to beg for their own deaths rather than thinking about harming their GOD.
Seeing this devotion of his Priestesses towards him Vardha became very happy and then moving closer to them he put his hand forward which they all held and then he said, "My Priestesses don't fear. As long as I have you all as my devotees there is no harm in this world that can happen to me. So just put your faiths in me, pick up the guns and shoot me."
With a very heavy heart they all agreed with the words of their GOD and then they all picked up the guns and pointed towards Vardha and after unlocking the safety lock...
*bang*
*bang*
*bang*
*bang*
All of the fired many bullets towards Vardha the sound of which alerted all of the guards and they all rushed in.
Seeing the Priestesses with the guns in their hands and shooting at their GOD the guards immediately captured them all.
But when they all looked at their GOD by being concerned about him they all saw something which shocked them to their core.
They all saw the bullets hanging in the mid air right before their GOD whose entire body is covered with an outlined blood red color glow.
Seeing this they all folded their hands and fall on their knees and began to worship Vardha and this included his Priestesses as well.
Soon the bullets fall on the ground and then Vardha looked at his devotees and told them, "My Dear Devotees I apologise to you all for scaring you like that. But don't fear my Priestesses have done that as per my own wish. So don't hold them accountable for anything. They are my Priestesses remember that. Now go and enjoy the Grand Feast to the fullest."
Hearing this all of the guards went to enjoy the Grand Feast while they all seeker forgiveness from the Priestesses and once they all left Vardha felt some gazes on him.
As he looked for it he found that his Priestesses are looking at him with curious gazes and seeing them he just smiled and dispelled his sword first and then he told them, "These two are my new powers which I wanted to test out. So there is nothing to worry about."
Radha Rama came forward and held the hand of Vardha and said, "MY GOD please don't do anything reckless like this from now on. I was on the verge of killing myself for the sin that I had committed."
Coming forward and holding his hands as well the other three of his Priestesses agreed with the words of Radha Rama.
Vardha told them that he will not do anything like that in future and this made all of them very happy.
Then Vardha ordered new set of foods to be brought for them and in a few seconds a new dining table and new set of foods came for them which they all ate with full happiness and joy.
After completing their food Vardha entrusted Radha Rama to show the other three of his Priestesses their room.
After they all left Vardha in a calm manner moved towards the throne room and after reaching there he didn't sat down on the throne but rather he just kept staring at something in the throne room.
After a few moments of staring he called out Neela who after hearing her GOD Neela appeared right next to him.
Neela: "MY GOD what I can do for you ?"
Vardha: "When the evil energy was assimilating in my body I saw somethings as memory flashes some of which are not known to me but then I saw a particular memory flash in which this big guy was there."
While saying all of these lines Vardha kept staring at that particular thing and with his last line he just showed Neela that thing and when she looked at that thing it turned out to be the statue of the Bull God which is the worshipped God of Manner Tribe which has the face of a bull and the body of human.
Seeing the statue Neela understood everything that her GOD Vardha has seen in his memory.
So looking back at her GOD, Neela said, "The time has come for the mystery to be unlocked."
Vardha with a bit of puzzled look on his face said, "Then open the puzzles. I want know everything."
Neela: "MY GOD this big guy of yours is a descendant of Nandi the divine mount of Lord Shiv. This big guy was once ruling over a part of India as the God of those people of that part. His powers were mainly his brute strength that was unparalleled in entire universe among his kinds. But one day some divine inception occured which flooded a certain part of this country with the divine energy called "Brahma Shakti" and that energy created many divine Astras which then many sages and hermits took them for themselves. And one such Astra was Nandi Astra, an Astra that gives it's wearer the strength of thousand bulls and to a certain degree healing powers."
As Vardha heard all of these words from Neela a familiar bell began to rang in his mind. And with the name drop of Nandi Astra from Neela made Vardha to clearly remember that the things which Neela is saying is being taken from the lore of the movie, "Brahmāstra."
So he asked Neela, "Neela isn't what you told me is from the movie Brahmāstra ?"
Neela: "Yes MY GOD you are right. It is indeed the basic plot of Brahmāstra movie."
Vardha: "So how that movie and Nandi Astra are connected with the memory flashes that I have seen and this big guy ?"
Neela: "That's the catch there MY GOD. When Nandi Astra was created that Brahma Shakti sucked all of the powers of this big guy to create the Nandi Astra as that energy needed a strong conductor to transfer all that energy of Nandi Astra into the wearer of that Astra. This big guy actually unjustly died for that Astra and such that his spirt claims that Astra as his but none of your ancestors never couldn't get connected with the spirit of that big guy, so that weapon always remained within the Brahmansh. But now you got connected with that big guy's spirit and he showed you the flashes of his dying time, Nandi Astra and the current wearer of that Astra. And this big guy hopes that you will take not only the Nandi Astra but all of the other Astras as well from the Brahmansh."
After hearing these words from Neela, a smile just appeared on the face of Vardha as he exclaimed, "My Priestesses do need weapons for them and the image which showed to my devotees of the Khansaar certainly showed me holding some divine astras. So I think the season of Astra Hunting is coming."
As Vardha said these words an evil smile appeared on his face as he remembered all of the astras from his previous life along with a suitable candidate who has all the rights to become his Dark Priestess.
