THE TEARS OF KUMARI KANDAM
CHAPTRE 113

The Kumari Kingdom of Kandam is again made a scene. This time not because of Vinder's heart-wrenching cries, multicolored emergency signs fired into space, or the appearance of a fake Daxraj Natesh that presents an ambiguous sense of security. But because Braheim follows King Arshaq, King Hathelee and King Garjan are running around Shaanadaar* by just wearing a cover cloth as high as a mini skirt wrapped carelessly.

Shaanadaar* is the king's private hot spring.

A fit body without stains that exceed the smooth silk really makes the connoisseurs of erotic books want to immediately lay themselves and fantasize. The face with the typical good looks of each continent is also increasingly looking handsome without a crown of fancy jewelry. And the remnants of water that dripped the beautiful body at will, really make the connoisseurs of erotic books had hoped on Lord Krpaya* to turn them into water.

Krpaya* is the God whom the Kumari Kandam people worship.

No matter what the kings are looking for right now, each pair of wide-eyed people just wanted to thank anyone who had made them enjoy the scenery that might only happen once in a lifetime. What is being sought after Braheim and his three colleagues until they did not have time to reach the cover cloth is of course Vinder. After suddenly emerging from the sacred portal and sliding into the middle of Shaanadaar, Vinder ran out.

"She should be in the water and not on Shaanadaar's side, right?"

"Oh come on he's Daxraj Natesh's son" King Arshaq replied to King Hathleee.

"Then it's a waste we're worried about him drowning." King Garjan looked at Braheim. "From that, why did he grow so fast?"

King Arshaq turned to Braheim. "Don't I answer that?"

"Yes, that's quite representative, King Arshaq. But in more detail, the age of one month was equivalent to one hundred years if he grew up outside the sacred portal and the age of one day was equivalent to one hundred years if he grew up inside the sacred portal"

King Garjan shook his head. "remarkable. I find it hard to believe but it's really, really, amazing."

"What about humans? I heard that former Queen Kumari Kandam lived for a long time inside the sacred portal."

"Eitherway. Nothing changed from his appearance when he came out of the sacred portal," Braheim replied to King Hathelee.

King Arshaq crouched down checking the culverts. "The tribe and its residence are equally mysterious. Rather than that, if it is that big, shouldn't we immediately find him a teacher? Especially a teacher who could teach him how to control his strength?"

Bheim is still probing around. "I just found out today that he's a Vinder that's that big. I met him for the first time a few nights ago. But I think he's the son of one of your servants."

"If it's the son of one of our servants, then Daxraj Natesh also likes to play women." King Garjan laughed.

King Hathelee examined the sidelines of the tree. "Seeing from the look in his eyes, he was clearly a dissident."

"And thief. He stole our food supply for a month and made the Chief Kitchen Manager even more eager to sharpen the turkey cutting knife." Bheim laughing.

The three kings laughed, and slowly their steps began to slow down. Whatever concerns the wandering tribe has always been absurd, so chasing Vinder would obviously just be a waste of energy. As the kings were busy breathing each other, Murat appeared. Murat brings news that Ejlaal, a mysterious man who carried out strange activities in one of the villages in the interior of Kumari Kandam has been arrested.

" … He is currently in the interrogation room with strict guard, Your Majesty," Murat said.

"All right, I'll be right there. Is there anything else?"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Murat suddenly took off his robe, and then gave it to King Arshaq. "Please, Your Majesty."

Spontaneous Kings Arshaq, Braheim and the three kings look down there.

"Ah. I was so excited that I didn't feel my cover cloth fall out of nowhere." King Arshaq wearing Murat's robe.

"Not because it's too excited but because it's too small."

"That's absolutely right. If it's bigger it's gonna feel, right? Rather than that, it turns out that mine is still much bigger" King Hathelee told King Garjan.

"It turns out this is the reason for Queen Chamakadaar. I can understand it a little."

King Arshaq turned his head in response to Braheim, having fastened Murat's cloak. "Prepare for another war after the war of destruction, King Braheim."

Spontaneous Braheim was broken, and Murat and the three kings, and not long ago, King Arshaq himself.

"What about yours, Counselor?"

"Hamba couldn't judge it himself but almost all of them screamed as the servant took it off. The screams are the most important point in that regard, Your Majesty. If you are willing, I can help increase your confidence in that" Murat replied to King Arshaq.

"Make sure you're in another war after the war of destruction. Understood?"

The laughter of Braheim and the others again spilled down the back corridor of Shaanadaar.

...•▪•▪•▪•▪•...

Ejlaal was transferred from the interrogation room to Braheim's study. In addition to Braheim himself, in the room there were also witnesses such as guards, servants and people from the temple. Witnesses said they met Ejlaal for the first time while accompanying Haala in the procession of the bride-to-be. At that time they were about to go to the Baanjh Temple to carry out the eighth ritual but there were obstacles in the middle of the journey.

"Everything is abandoned, Your Grace. We thought maybe the residents of Jaadoo Village had moved out. The guards think so too." A female servant turned to the bodyguard standing right beside her.

"That's because there's a waterfall not far from Jaadoo Village, Your Majesty. So I thought they must have moved temporarily because the weather was getting colder. But Commander Haala said that they had not moved unless they had been attacked, and he was sure that the attacker was neither human nor animal."

*FLASHBACK ON*

"There's a waterfall behind this village, Commander. The weather must be very cold, especially in the rainy season like now. Looks like they're really moving on."

Haala shook her head in response to the bodyguard. "They're under attack."

"Sorry, Commander?"

"Although it still needs further investigation, but I can make sure the attacker is neither human nor animal" Haala replied as she probed around.

"Maybe a wolf."

"Jaadoo wolves are different from wolves in general. They do not prey on their victims in place to avoid attracting the attention of predators above them. Do you know the nickname for the Jaadoo Wolf, Commander?"

Haala deliberately did not answer, not out of curiosity but busy remembering the figure of the coachman who seemed to have seen somewhere.

"Phantom wolf. It is like a ghost that is invisible, untouched and leaves no trace. Likewise with the Jaadoo Wolf," added the coachman.

"Commander, we'd better get back."

"Good idea, Mr. Guard. Jaadoo wolves used to appear in the hours like now. So even if you and Commander Haala are famous for being great, the former pet leader of the wandering tribe is still not your opponent, is it? Please, Commander." The coachman invited Haala to lead the way.

*FLASHBACK OFF*

Braheim turned to Ejlaal. "I'm sure the pets of wandering tribe leaders written in the fairy tale are only Balavaan*, Chammach*, Bandar* and Bhookamp*."

Balavaan*one of three supernatural creatures pet Daxraj Natesh who shaped a giant lion.

Chammach*one of the three supernatural creatures of Daxraj Natesh's pet is a giant snake.

Bandar*one of the three supernatural creatures of Daxraj Natesh's pet in the shape of a giant ape.

Bhookamp*one of three supernatural creatures pet Daxraj Natesh who shaped a giant elephant.

"The servant sees only what is seen, Your Majesty."

Bheim was silent, staring at Ejlaal. Then I looked at the witnesses. "You can go. I'll call you guys soon."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The witnesses compactly bowed and hurriedly left the gripping room.

"Then what are you doing in Buraee Village?"

"Hamba is helping you, Your Majesty," Ejlaal said.

"Help by eliminating evidence?"

"Yes, Your Majesty. The evidence must be obliterated so that it cannot be reused for evil."

Bheim tapped his index finger at the table for quite a while, while looking back at Ejlaal. "Maying Kumari Kandam, removing evidence, and not cooperating during interrogation, hundred years' imprisonment or Tamaasha*."

Tamaasha* is a giant beheading tool often used to punish criminals.

Ejlaal just bent down in response to Braheim, then stood up straight again with a facial expression that seemed to imply, Quickly throw me out before eating my lunch overrun by red ants!

"You will be detained until the day your trial is set" Braheim said, ringing a bell. "Tell the Chief Warden to add special care around his cell."

"As per your orders, Your Majesty." The two underground prison guards who had just entered bowed and took Ejlaal away violently.

"Sorry, Your Honor. There's still something I want to say."

Bheim did not respond, only codifying the two burly bodyguards to obey Ejlaal's pinta.

"Congratulations on your marriage, Your Majesty. Because of your sincerity, sacrifice, and belief in the plans of Lord Krpaya, the happy day you dreamed of for eleven years ago, will not be a mere delusion in silence. May you always be blessed, Your Majesty." Ejlaal passed leaving a sincere smile on Braheim's memory.

...•▪•▪•▪•▪•...

The Chief Warden looked at Ejlaal from head to toe, before leading him into one of the empty dungeon cells. No chatter along the way. The Chief Warden looked extremely irritated and occasionally frowned feeling the lash marks on his back that had not dried properly. But gradually, as the Chief Warden's steps also began to slow down, the two began to chat.

"How would you feel if you had to take someone else's punishment?" ask the Chief Warden at Ejlaal.

"I will hunt him down to the ends of the world to give him a similar punishment."

"That's her. That's the right one. But I'm locked up here because Kumari Kandam is back on war alert. Fuckin."

"Who should bear the punishment?" Ejlaal threw a question.

"Who else? Of course Princess Jihan's servant. They were late in delivering Princess Jihan's message to me. I was being led away like an animal. God fucking. I feel like I'd just die if I remembered that day."

Ejlaal just nodded in listening.

"That's it, Princess Jihan left just like that. He should have kept his word before he left, right? I helped him and even took his servant's punishment. Hid. I'm sure Princess Jihan is riding another man at the moment" the Chief Warden added.

"I guess not. I saw some time ago he was busy cleaning his new house."

The spontaneous look on the face of the Warden's head turned very enthusiastic. "Where?"

"At Shankh's coast."

"You didn't tell me for free, did you? There's gotta be something you want, right?"

"What do you want from a prisoner who is soon to be sentenced to death?" Ejlaal went into the cell that the Chief Warden had just opened. "But after some thought, yes, there is something I want."

The Chief Warden chuckled, "I guessed it. I've faced people like you for years. Say."

"Add half-cooked eggs at every lunch."
