Demise of the Demon King Page 13

  'Naagraj Yugandhar, you go inside and pick up that divine sword, till then I'll resist them all. If Danshak will come here, then it will be very tough for us to get that sword.' Vishank shouted at Yugandhar.

  Yugandhar stepped forward. Vishank was engaged in fighting with all the serpent demons. Seeing this that, giant Serpent demon left that place and rushed towards Yugandhar. Rest all the serpent demons surrounded Vishank.

  When Yugandhar entered inside, the divine sword of Sage Omeshwar was in front of him, he stepped forward to pick it up. But before Yugandhar could do that, the giant serpent demon who was actually the guard of that door attacked him from back and bitten him. Yugandhar falls on the floor, taking the advantage of the situation the guard attacked him with the spear. Yugandhar was on floor, he tried to save himself, but the spear embedded in his shoulder. He was injured and was bleeding severely, but then also he stood up with his axe and resisted the next attack of that guard, and forced him to throw of his spear. At the next moment only, Yugandhar stared at that demon, he targeted his Axe towards neck of that serpent demon. The next moment was too scaring for other serpent demons. The giant guard serpent demon was beheaded.

  His head covered with blood, was in air and soon falls in between the crowd of other serpent demons, who had surrounded Vishank. The brutal murder of security guard, scared all the serpent demons. Their heart started throbbing, and hands were freezed.

  'Har Har Mahadev…..' Yugandhar raised his Axe in the frenzy of victory.

  Swords of Sage Omeshwar - 2

  Yugandhar turned, the sword of Sage Omeshwar was in front of him. The confidence level of serpent demons was almost destroyed, seeing the condition of the giant guard. When Yugandhar touched that sword, the floor started shivering. He pulled out that sword, and as a result the throne of Danshak who was far away from that place, shakes. He falls on the floor from that throne, which was about fifteen yards higher. He stood up from the floor and ordered his troops.

  'Someone has disturbed the sword of Sage Omeshwar. Soldiers, come to the southern region of the palace with me.'

  In the southern region, the venom of giant serpent demon started affecting Yugandhar's body. His steps began to falter, but he didn't lost his courage. Soon Danshak and his son Naagish reached there. Yugandhar was having the divine sword and the divine Axe in his hands, Vishank was also eager to fight with the naked sword in his hand. The troops of serpent demons were not so confident, that they could dare to attack. Looking over the blood smeared axe of Yugandhar, the blood flow in their veins were freezed. The arrival of Danshak and his son also could not encourage them. The steps of Yugandhar were faltering, but he was standing as like nothing has happened to him, so that the army in front of him couldn't get to know about it. On the command of Danshak, the troops of serpent demons stepped towards Yugandhar, but they have fear in their mind.

  This fear and the Divine Axe of Yugandhar proved to be a disaster for them, those troops were slaughtered like lambs, their blood spreaded all over the floor. Now the floor appeared to be blood red in colour. Soon there was a huge commotion among them, and the troops of Danshak were compelled to give up and moved back. Now only two foes were remaining, Danshak and his son Naagish were ready for fight. But at the next moment only, Naagish played an unexpected trick.

  Naagish escaped from there. Danshak can see his death in front of him, but then also he pulled out his sword and rushed towards Yugandhar. The venomous effect was spreading all over the body of Yugandhar, his strength was also reducing. But then also he stood up to face Danshak. As he was eager to kill him.

  'Stop Naagraj, otherwise your lover Suvarya will surely die.' It was Naagish, who kept a sword on Suvarya's neck. He warned Yugandhar.

  Yugandhar was amazed to see Suvarya alive, he was not able to utter a word.

  'Surprise, Surprise, Surprise. Don't to be so surprised, Yugandhar. I have only saved her, when she was falling from the higher hills, so that I could use her on time, to compel you to surrender.'

  Yugandhar was shocked, he couldn't understand what to do now.

  'No, No… Naagish. I am leaving my weapons, just leave Suvarya.' Yugandhar kept his Axe and Divine sword on the floor and said.

  Danshak rushed towards Yugandhar with his sword. The effect of venom was sucking the strength of Yugandhar, and the sword of Danshak was about to attack him. Suvarya can't see it anymore, she took out a poniard from her waist and attacked on Naagish's hand. The sword falls on the floor from his hand. Thereafter, she rushed towards Yugandhar.

  Before Danshak could kill Yugandhar, Vishank (Father of Suvarya) took up the sword of Sage Omeshwar from the floor and resisted his attack, and replied him too. Danshak succeeded to save himself. He stared on Vishank, and this was the start of their duel. While within this span of time, Yugandhar got a chance, he stood up from the floor collecting all his strength.

  But on the other side Danshak stabbed Vishank's abdomen.

  'Pitashree (Father) …..' Suvarya screamed.

  When Vishank felt that he was near to his death, he thrown the sword of Sage Omeshwar to Yugandhar. Yugandhar grabbed that sword, and as soon as Danshak turned towards him, without wasting anytime, he attacked on his waist. Soon the body of Lord of the Serpent Demons 'Danshak' was divided into two parts from the waist.

  The troops of Danshak were shocked, they were too much scared, that they dropped their weapons on the floor. Soon the two parts of the Danshak's body turned dead. The floor was filled with the bloodstreams. Naagish was not able to believe on his eyes, he lied on the floor on his knees. The effect of venom was effecting Yugandhar rapidly, he lost his consciousness and falls on the floor. Seeing this Naagish stepped forward to kill him, but Suvarya took up a sword and resisted his attack. The other Serpent demons could not dare to move a step, they were scared about Yugandhar that he could wake up at any moment. Then Vishank took a suicidal step, he turned into a snake and the part of the body where the giant Serpent guard has bitten Yugandhar, he embedded his teeth at that part, and started sucking the venom of his body. Soon the whole venom of Yugandhar's body was sucked by Vishank.

  Yugandhar started gaining his consciousness, he opened his eyes and stood up from the floor. But Vishank was still lying on the floor, he was taking his last breaths. Suvarya pushed Naagish on the floor and rushed towards her father, she started mourning.

  'No my daughter……, now Yugandhar 'the King of Serpents' is….. with you, he will… protect you. This is one… of my…. great achievement, that I… am sacrificing my… life for the leader of Serpents. Yo Majesty,…..promise me… that you will take care…. of my… daughter.' Vishank uttered his last words.

  'It's my word to you, your daughter is now my responsibility.' Yugandhar promised him. Vishank smiled, and soon he was dead.

  'Pitashree… (Father)..' Suvarya screamed.

  Yugandhar hugged Suvarya tightly and said, 'You are not alone Suvarya, I will there for you until I am alive. And today I accept this reality, that I am incomplete without you. After my mother, you are the first lady, who is most important in my life. I felt how much I love you, when I almost lost you. Therefore, I accept you as my soulmate.'

  But the tears of Suvarya was continuously flowing. While on the other side, the legs of Naagish were shivering because of fear. Yugandhar holds his Axe and stared towards him, the other serpent demons had already dropped their weapons.

  'Don't be scared Naagish. I am not going to kill you. Although you have done it for your selfishness, but you have saved Suvarya. So just go, and take the responsibility of your father's throne. But before that you will have to take me to the Demon King and his other siblings.'

  'As you wish, you left me alive, condoned me for all my sins. I'll surely fulfill your wish.' Naagish lead down his sword in front of Yugandhar, rest all the Serpent Demons followed him. The soul of Naagish was dieing for the sake of vengeance, but he was not capable of facing Yugandhar.

  'Our palace as well as the palace of uncle Adheem is a
t the last end of Patallok. The path from here to the palace of the Demon King is very tough, we cannot take horses with us, we have to go by walking. And if we walk without break it will take around fifteen days.'

  Listening this Yugandhar went in deep thoughts, 'Already twenty five days passed when we left from Vidarbh, I am staying away with my brothers since twenty days. And still I have to travel fifteen more days, King Veersen is still suffering from the venom's effect. I don't know how much time it will take to get that divine Vijaydhanusha. Thereafter, he turned towards Naagish

  'It doesn't matter how long we would have to travel, I have a strong feeling that I would meet my brothers their only. So we have to go.' Yugandhar decided.

  Clash with Tribhuj

  Tejasvi, Yugandhar, Akhand and Suryam were separated. Tejasvi wandered, and soon he found himself alone in a dense forest. He was astonished when he didn't found any of his brother with him. He was disappointed, but he had to move forward.

  Tejasvi was wandering since two prahars, then only he looked over those demons, who captured the innocent peoples and moving with them to certain direction. Tejasvi felt, that it was not the right time to attack, he just chased them on the tiptoe. A prahar was passed while walking, the darkness of night was spreaded all over. Tejasvi was unable to decide that whether he should go behind them or search for his brothers. Soon the Demons entered in a cave.

  Seeing this, Tejasvi disarmed himself and used his power of transforming himself, he impersonated as a demon. Thereafter, he joined the crowd of demons, who were taking away the humans. Soon they reached a Balisthal (a place of sacrifice). There were many sacrificial Axe present there in the cave. Then one demon came and banged a large bell. All the demons laid down, Tejasvi also laid down following other demons.

  His steps were leading to the shivering of land.

  'The great demon, 'Tribhuj',….' There were many echoes of sound of praising Tribhuj.

  Tribhuj ascended on his throne, and stared at those humans, and then ordered the demons, 'Sacrifice them, these sacrifices will satisfy our Kuldevi, and we'll get a boon in return.' Following his orders, one human was brought near the sacrificial Axe.

  'Stop….' Tejasvi can't bear it anymore, he transformed himself in the original form.

  'What do you want to prove, by sacrificing these innocent peoples, Tribhuj? If you have guts, then fight me. I am all alone, and I challenge you and your whole army for war.' Tejasvi tightened his grip challenging Tribhuj for war.

  'Tejasvi. I…I was actually waiting for you. I have heard many rumors about you, that you can single handedly destroy a whole army.' Tribhuj insinuated Tejasvi.

  'You have got it right, Tribhuj. And if you want to examine my capability, then I am ready for the war.'

  'That's the common problem with you all the Kshatriyas. You all are always ready to raise weapons. Ok fine, if you want war, there will be a war. I challenge you for duel, but I will not fight with the weapon, in which you are specialized i.e. Archery, I want Mallyudh. I assure you, no one will come between us.'

  'I accept your challenge, Tribhuj. I am disarmed (keeping his bow on the floor), now I am ready to fight you, as well as to kill you.'

  'Let the time decide the result of this duel, Tejasvi. Wait for the sunrise, I am not in hurry, be my guest.'

  After Sunrise, below the open sky, Tejasvi and Tribhuj were in front of each other for the Mallyudh.

  The sounds of drums was the signal of the start of the duel, the Mallyudh started. Fourprahars passed, but the result was yet to come. At last the situation seemed to be decisive, when few moments were remaining before Sunset, Tejasvi's leg was on Tribhuj's shoulder, and he was lying helpless.

  'So Tribhuj, What shall I do with you? My hands are eager to pull out your hands from your shoulders?'

  'You don't even know, Tejasvi, what is going to happen within few moments.' Tribhuj laughed loudly.

  Within this time, Sun was set. And the full moon night spreaded all over, everyone could see the rise of the full moon.

  Whereas, in the body of Tribhuj there was a drastic change. He gained too much strength, he easily thrown away Tejasvi from him.

  Tejasvi was astonished to see that drastic change. On the back of Tribhuj, one more hand was produced, his size was doubled and his face turned like a wolf.

  'This is actually our Lord Tribhuj, prince. And here he comes with his actual power of three hands, and this is his actual form.' One of the demon stepped out and tried to horrify Tejasvi.

  Tejasvi evocated his bow. Tribhuj rushed towards him. Tejasvi started throwing rain of arrows towards Tribhuj, but none of his arrows were able to stop him more than few moments. Seeing this, Tejasvi used the divine weapon Paashastra, due to which Tribhuj was captured with strong divine ropes. But within few time he collected all his strength, and destroyed that barrier with his muscle power. Tejasvi therefore, pulled out his sword and rushed towards Tribhuj.

  He showed his excellent skills, jumped and attacked on third hand of Tribhuj with all his strength, as a result the third hand of Tribhuj detached from his back and falls on the ground. He roared as like a wild animal.

  Tribhuj screamed, he attacked fiercely with his nails. But Tejasvi shown excellent agility and saved himself from that attack, but his hand got injured with his nails. It started bleeding. The very next moment was too astonishing for Tejasvi, The detached hand of Tribhuj raised on itself and joined his body again.

  The war between Tejasvi and Tribhujh was running since the rise of sun. A time was there when Tejasvi almost defeated Tribhujh but the wild beast form of Tribhujh was not easy to overcome. He was unable to think the way through which he could defeat him. Tejasvi thought that it is better to save himself from the sharp nails of that wild beast. Tribhujh continued attacking on him, but Tejasvi was showing tremendous excellent agility to save himself. When Tribhujh saw that sun was about to rise he was quite disturbed and suddenly he got disappeared.

  After the few moments Tribhuj appeared at the back of Tejasvi and tried to stab him, but Tejasvi was an excellent archer, he can feel the attacks from all the directions very easily. He attacked and pushed Tribhuj on the ground once again. Tribhuj again used his elusive powers, and disappeared from there.

  At the next moment only other demons tried to distract Tejasvi, they brought some innocent villagers outside the cave and started attacking them who were captured for the sacrifices. Therefore, Tejasvi raised his bow and started his rain of arrows to protect the humans. The demons ran away in the dense forest with fear in their eyes, Tejasvi chased them and reached in the dense forest, he pulled out his sword from the sheath and started cutting the ropes for rescuing the humans. Demons escaped, but Tribhuj impersonated as a human and joined the crowd of the people present there, who were captured for the sacrifice.

  Tejasvi felt that Tribhuj has escaped after his defeat. He rescued every person who werecaptured by demons. All the humans laid down in front of Tejasvi, one of them stood up and said.

  'You are full of indomitable courage and strength. You defeated a great warrior Tribhuj, and rescued all the humans from his capture. We all are your debtor from today.'

  'This was my duty, as well as my motive too. From now onwards you all are free from Tribhuj.' Tejasvi turned and convinced all the people.

  But at the next moment only, he was stabbed by a sharp sword from back, this was totally unexpected for him. Because the sword was in hand of that human being, who stood up firstly to praise him. Thereafter, that human returned to his original form, this was Tribhuj, he deceived Tejasvi.

  'I am still alive, how could you think that, the people I have captured, will be rescued so easily.' Said Tribhuj while pushing injured Tejasvi on the ground.

  'My elder brother will glad to know about the news of your death.' Said Tribhuj and raised his sword to kill Tejasvi.
