THE TEARS OF KUMARI KANDAM
CHAPTRE 63

A soldier guarding the main gate of the Padachihn Kingdom called out the name of the God of salvation repeatedly, as his binocular eyes caught the haughty figure of Gaana walking alongside millions of monstrous creatures. The guard soldier immediately told all his comrades to prepare for war, while he, hurrying to meet the king.

King Padachihn returned the binoculars belonging to the guard soldiers. "Use your armour. We're going to war."

"As per your orders, Your Majesty."

The dazzling armor like a typical light coming out of the fairy's body not only disturbs Gaana's view, but also the sun. Along with King Padachihn who stopped his steps on the final steps of the top of the tower, Gaana stopped his steps in front of the main gate of the Padachihn Kingdom which was only ten steps away.

"Long live, and be bound always, the sun of Padachihn." Gaana slouch.

"Before we go to war, I wonder why Padachihn was your first target?"

"Hmm targets? I think it would be more appropriate to call it a goal. You're my last destination because your same protectors bother him with that fucking Daxraj Natesh."

King Padachihn was silent. "But I've taken care of it. I mean your protectors. I killed him" Gaana said.

"What did you say?"

"Ah, it must be hard to believe considering that your protector is the strongest among the other protectors. I-i understand. So here, I bring you proof." Gaana throws something at King Padachihn.

"Yes God," the inner King Padachihn after capturing something that turned out to be the corpse of a fairy.

"I'm so sorry. Then as an expression of guilt, I'll find a new protector for Padachihn."

"It's not enough to kill innocent people and kill Namakeen*, you even killed our land protector?"

Namakeen* a type of Ghinauna that inhabits one of the sacred lakes on the Chamakadaar Continent.

"Yes. Wh why? You mad? Come on, Your Majesty. Don't get carried away. I promised you a new protector, didn't I? Rather than that, I didn't come to fight."

King Padachihn was silent. "I'm going to war with Kumari Kandam. If Padachihn promises not to interfere, I also promise not to set foot here again" Gaana added.

King Padachihn was silent. "Of course you have the right to refuse, Your Majesty. But you know what the pay is, don't you?"

"What?"

Gaana snorted, "Basar naive. Of course the pay is the death of your people that you hid in the former Daxraj Natesh house. You think I can't touch that place? One sec. I could really flatten the place in just one second. Shall?"

King Padachihn took off his headgear. "Let your weapons down."

Gaana did not reply, only nodding at King Padachihn while giving his troops the code to get out of the honey-producing continent and move towards the next continent, Shushk. In contrast to King Padachihn who welcomed Gaana's arrival through binoculars, King Shushk welcomed the indecent female demon directly.

"Long live, and blessed always, Shushk sun."

King Shushk looked surprised. "How come? Our protector?"

"Yes. As you can see, Your Majesty. Me and your landlords have teamed up to destroy Kumari Kandam."

"What?"

King Shushk drew his sword. "I'd rather die."

"Could only. But what about your people you hid in that rock?"

King Shushk was silent. "You know I'm going to war with Kumari Kandam, don't you? If Shushk promises not to interfere, I also promise not to hurt your people. How's it?"

King Shushk was silent. "How, Your Majesty?" ask Gaana again.

King Shushk took off his headgear. "Only a fool makes promises to the devil."

Gaana slouch. "Then you are the first fool to be honored, Your Majesty."

Gaana again moved towards the next continent, Lagaam. One of the three continents that God entrusted to Daxraj Natesh. Just like in the previous two continents, Gaana threatened King Lagaam to make him remove the head covering. And it did not take long, Gaana also returned to pocket the green card from Lagaam, also Jvaala, Garjan, Hathelee, and Chamakadaar. Yet.

"He vaphaadaar thandee aatmaon. Tera svaamee bula raha hai, Chamakadaar ka svaamee bula raha hai."

T/N: O faithful cold souls, come.your master calls, the ruler of Chamakadaar calls.

"Give command to these cold souls, O blessed ruler of Chamakadaar." Two of the Chamakadaar King's shadow guards, Arshaq Zamir, rest in front of him.

"Go to the side of King Kumari Kandam. Be shadow. Now whatever he wants is also my will. Where that means, his life is as precious as mine."

"As per your orders, Your Majesty."

So did King Padachihn, Hathelee, Garjan, and Jvaala, who had previously cut off cooperation in the war with Kumari Kandam, felt he was being played with by Braheim's belief in a wandering tribal leader that only existed in fairy tales. They also sent their own shadow bodyguards to protect Braheim.

" ... I order you to protect King Kumari Kandam ...."

" ... Of all black. Be it black spirits, black magic, and black-hearted people ...."

" ... Protect her like you're protecting me. Don't let his body get scratched even if it's just a speck ...."

" ... And don't ever come back if you just bring the sad news.""
