A boy and a girl could be seen hugging peacefully, close to piles of corpses near them. Kajal had her eyes closed; she was feeling comfortable in his embrace. They had been together for a long time, but this was their first proper hug. At first, Rishi's mind became blank for a moment.
He felt a warm embrace that had been missing in his life. His heart started beating faster. He smelled her hair near him, and that fragrance made him realize it was not an illusion but reality. He slowly moved his hands around her back before holding her tightly.
Kajal felt his cold hands tightly clinging to her. Instead of being uncomfortable, she became even more comfortable. Forgetting about other things happening in her life, she focused more on enjoying this moment. Rishi felt like she was giving him the strength to suppress his emotions; he also felt joy, which had been missing for some days.
The wind blew, and they didn't realize how much time had passed; Kajal had to push him back. This guy was holding onto her so tightly as if she were going to fly away. It made it difficult even to breathe. Rishi looked at her and became normal again. Oh, I forgot. He went back to the ruins, searching for something.
Soon, he found four eggs with a strange triangular pattern on them. Kajal saw him coming out with four one-foot eggs and asked curiously, "Are you going to make an omelet for me?" with a smile on her face.
Rishi held them closer when he heard that. What's with these people? Why does everyone think of making omelets when they see an egg? If it had been someone else, he might have given him a long lecture, but he couldn't make up his mind to shout at the sweet girl in front of him. He put them on Shadow Space, saying, "They are eggs of lizards; are you sure you want to eat them?"
Kajal's face became disgusted; she thought they were eggs from the Lizardman. "Follow me; let me show you some magic." He held her hand and started moving toward the location of two dead Salamanders. Kajal looked at these Giant Beasts from close range and saw that they looked even more terrifying from close range.
Rishi then took out two Daggers and inserted them into their bodies. Before he started chanting something, his hands again moved, creating the same hand signs. He then appeared beside her, and they both started watching as both daggers shone in red light.
Their Shadows shook for a while before they slowly transformed into Shadow creatures. They absorbed a lot of Shadow Energy, Draconic Energy, and Mana as they slowly came into existence. They looked similar but were in different shades of Black and violet. Their bodies were now covered in black scales, but the violet color had replaced the lava. In places where scales were not present, Their eyes also turned violet. 'Roar!' they both roared before looking at Rishi. Kajal was worried what if they tried to fight, but to her surprise, they approached him and bent on their knees.
Rishi chose the taller one and started climbing on its back. He then called Kajal. She was surprised and a little terrified, but she decided to trust him and slowly climbed on his back, sitting in front of him like a princess. You," Rishi pointed at the first Shadow Commander he had created, Bring them back to the cave, And don't dare to leave without my permission. Shadow Salamander number two; you also follow them."
He then pointed at the Archer Commander and the Raptor Rider Commander and said, "You two ask others about our Shelter's location and go there to guard it."
After giving commands to everyone, he started enjoying the ride with Kajal. Riding was fun. Rishi asked it to move faster towards the Border Region of the forest. The cold wind hit their faces as they enjoyed the ride on the Giant Beast. Kajal found it fun, which made her curious about how fun it would be to ride the Majestic Beast.
Rishi put his hand on her hand when he saw her lost in thoughts. As if guessing, "It will not take much before that Beast will be your contract beast; believe in me," he said, pointing out the thumb of his left hand clenched into a fist while a confident smile could be seen on his face.
"Just enjoy this moment," He said, holding her lightly with his left hand. He cleared his throat. "It's moving fast; I need to hold you. What if you fall?"
She burst out laughing when she saw him behaving like this. Who could have guessed this boy acting so cute now was the same one that had eliminated a tribe from existence? She moved a little back and brought his other hand to her waist. "Hold me properly, I am afraid."
A smile appeared on Rishi's face as he brought her closer. This Beast was very comfortable to ride. They moved through the forest. Many Beasts noticed them as they were not hiding themselves, but no one dared to stop their path and ruin their mood.
No one wanted to invite the wraith of a late Epic Stage Beast. The forest filled with ferocious monsters suddenly appeared to be similar to a Zoo. They soon appeared close to the location. Rishi created a small, strange mask and handed it to Kajal.
She wore it before asking, "What is it for?"
"There is a wonderful location ahead, but the air there contains a poison that affects the mind," replied Rishi with a sincere smile.
"You also need one then; what would I do if you suddenly started to act weird?" she taunted him.
"You just need to forgive me tomorrow. Rest, we would forget as if it never took place," replied Rishi, setting his hair and trying to look cool as if he had said the most incredible comeback line.
"I hope you also forgive me tomorrow," she said as lightning started dancing in her eyes. Rishi calmed her down. "Just kidding, the normal poison doesn't affect me, so don't try to poison me with it in the future if you want to get rid of me," he added with a sad tone.
She hit him with an elbow and said, "This is too much; what do you want to imply? Why would I try to poison you? Are you questioning my character?"
"Nah," replied Rishi, "it's not about character; who would be able to survive getting hit by a lightning bolt every second by you? My concern is that to pursue your dreams, You will find ways to escape from the marriage."
Kajal remained silent, biting her nails as if she had been caught. "It looks like you know me a lot better than expected. If you know that much, you should also know that I want to make a name for myself. I don't want to be like other girls who are willing to sacrifice their dreams for their families."
"What do you want? Do you think I would ever stop you from doing anything? I don't care about these things. I don't want to beat around the bush," he said in a serious tone, before he stopped and added, "Why don't we play the contract game? You add your conditions, and I would add mine. Simple, it's quite popular now a days."
