Dvesas
Free from the Forest of Death

“Quick!” Gopal pulled both his columns

to put the rest of the energy they have.

Yadav and Naveer were unable to run any further. Their breaths gasping. They had run two kilos in Gopal's estimation. If they were to stay longer in this forest then their plans would fall apart.

The dead forest flower again released its poisonous substance.

This time the three of them could do nothing but lie down and

waiting for the effects to disappear.

Cold enveloped all three of them. Their bodies are stiff. The drowsiness was very attacking them. Gopal tried his hardest to keep his eyes from closing. In his brain he remembered his goal of passing through the forest of death, the destruction of Astapura. Gopal's last seconds were unable to beat his drowsiness. With full resignation Gopal whispered softly

“Dewa Indra please help us” said Gopal slowly.

Before his eyelids fused, Gopal heard the sound of horse footsteps running closer. Gopal sharpened his hearing, looking for where the sound was coming from.

A blood-red wild horse ran towards them. The horse smashed the rocks and plants that blocked its path. Instantaneously

that too, Gopal pulled Yadav and Naveer into running, avoiding the horse's rampage

those.

Gopal felt their strength as if they were re-charged and multiplied many times over. Their steps are as light as cotton. Their consciousness was recovering as it was.

Gopal and his companions had passed through the forest of death and entered the Astapura region. The horse disappeared, the footsteps of the horse were no longer heard.

“shiing!” a sword almost slashed Gopal's neck.

Gopal retreated a few steps, Sri Narendra's son Siddarth looked wrathfully standing before him.

“Hahahaha, you're smarter than I thought, sir. Get ready for your death” Gopal pulls out his sword against Siddarth.

Siddarth swung his sword at Gopal's chest. Gopal dodged the attack and retaliated by swinging his elbow towards Siddarth's neck.

Siddarth dodged the attack and slashed off Gopal's leg. Slashed slash. Gopal jumped up and kicked his shoulder.

Siddarth fell to the ground. Without wasting any chance, Gopal swung his sword right in front of Siddarht's forehead intending to split

chief Siddarth. Gopal's sword swing was successfully held by Siddarth with his sword and he kicked Gopal in the stomach.

Gopal was pushed back a few meters.

“Today Dewa Indra is with me!”

“You won't be able to beat me!” gopal said arrogantly.

“God Indra loves you and helps you from death, so you can improve your way of life. Pride will destroy you” said

Siddarth replied to Gopal.

Not accepting Siddarth's words, Gopal attacked again. This time he slammed his sword blindly. His sword tore Siddarth's left abdomen. Siddarth responded with a swing of the sword that tore off part of his right back.

Both of them retreated, while holding back the blood that started flowing from their wounds with palms.

“Stop Your Majesty, we will not win against him” whispered Naveer stopping Gopal who was about to continue the fight.

“Shouldn't we go from here “ take Yadav while memapah Gopal and immediately leave the place.

Siddarth was unable to prevent them, blood from his wounds growing more and more, pouring down the clothes he was wearing. View conditions

they, Siddarth, are not convinced that Gopal will not approach the war memorial. Now all he does is return to camp to make sure Gopal's other entourage, doesn't infiltrate the war memorial.
