Chapter 78 Who Is He?
Everyone in the crowd criticized Rishi’s actions; even Kajal was surprised. Aditya was really annoying to her, She didn’t know what grudge Rishi had against him, but from their interactions, she knew that Rishi had been only good to her.
She thought Rishi is doing it because of her, but she shook her head, ‘Why would he do that? Could it be because he likes me?’
‘No, Kajal, it can’t be; there might be a personal reason,’ she thought in her mind as she saw Rishi beating Aditya, even though she had no interest in Aditya and disliked his presence but this amount of cruelty was too much; she was also thinking about the consequences of Rishi’s actions.
The Tyagi clan was not some small clan, They might not be able to do anything inside the academy, but outside the academy, they could harm Rishi easily. Even inside the academy, they could use their connections to make things difficult for Rishi.
‘Why are you doing it, idiot? You are making this conflict bigger by doing this,” said Kajal with mixed feelings.
Sakshi misinterpreted Kajal’s reaction and said, “I was right, something was going on between you and that guy; you already knew about him from before, and that’s why you were so confident.”
“Why don’t you admit it? The way he’s beating Aditya appears to be a warning to him not to get too close to you. Kajal, are you really into him?” she asked.
“How many times have I answered already? I have met him once before, and we had a fight where he used that strange ability,” replied Kajal.
“All right, then show me your phone and prove it to me,” Sakshi said before snatching Kajal’s phone. She checked the contacts and typed R; a list of three or four names came in and Rishab’s name was already there.
Sakshi smiled and asked, “Why do you have his number if you don’t know him? I know you will argue now and try to clarify yourself; you might have also thought about many excuses, but I am also your elder sister and I know you more than anyone else; let’s check your call history too when we are at it.”
Sakshi checked the call history and found many calls from Rishab: “Now, what will you say in your defense? People don’t call me detective Sakshi for no reason. Now tell me honestly about everything, or I will inform uncle about it.”
“Jeez, stop it, Didi; it’s not what you think. Let me narrate you the whole incident,” said annoyed Kajal, after which she told about how she met him and what happened after it. // Didi means Big Sister in Hindi.
“It’s a very good story, Kajal. From where have you read it? Do I look like an eight-year-old to you? Who will believe this nonsense?” said Sakshi.
“Trust me, sis. Why would I lie to you? This is really what happened; I can prove it by taking the Mana oath,” said Kajal with a serious expression.
“There’s no need for it; I trust you, but there are a lot of mysteries involved. I tried to find out about his background, but I got nothing,” said Sakshi.
“Who is he? Where is he from? What is his bsckground? Everything about him is a mystery. He could also be a spy for an enemy guild who has only one purpose in coming to this academy, which is you,” she added.
“I think you are overthinking; who will have the resources to send a twelve-year-old talented boy as a spy? It could also be because he has many enemies and is trying to hide his identity,” said Kajal.𝔫𝒐𝒱𝓮𝓵𝑛𝓮xt.𝗰𝑂𝓜
“Then why did he approach you? Why is he so generous towards you? Giving away an epic-grade magic beast as if it were nothing and buying so many high-quality potions—even with the discount—is not a small amount. You need to be careful of him, Kajal; some biger power is behind him,” warned Sakshi.
“Didi, If there’s really someone so powerful behind him that he doesn’t even care about Epic Grade, then why would he act so lowkey? I think he might have realized that the magic beast was of epic grade later,” said Kajal.
“You are smart Kajal, but also very innocuous; he could have just given you something in exchange for that magic beast and gotten back the epic-grade magic beast.” replied Sakshi.
“There could only be two major reasons: the first is that he likes you, and the second is that he has some ulterior motive. In both cases, it’s not good news; from your expression, it looks like you are slowly falling into his trap,” she added.
“Stop it, Didi; you are just assuming everything about him as bad because you don’t like him. You are biased. He has not done anything that has had even a little bad effect on me; I also don’t sense any evil intentions from his gaze. You know how good my instincts are; I can easily detect even a little malice towards me,” said Kajal.
“Leave it for now; let’s try to learn more about him before making a decision. We should focus on the match,” she added.
When Rishi was trying to force Aditya to surrender, a battle was still going on between Dilip and Vaibhav. In this battle, Vaibhav had tried everything he could, but he couldn’t gain any advantage in the battle.
He has used all his skills one by one, but Dilip countered them all very easily by only using basic skills. “You have really changed a little; your skin has gotten even thicker; you are now a better punching bag. I can do this all day, come on entertain me more” said Dilip as he deflected Vaibhav’s attacks effortlessly.
“If you don’t have any other skill to entertain me, then I should eliminate you; I don’t have time to fight with someone like you,” said Dilip as he started using his attack skills. His attacks gave Vaibhav no chance to escape, His body was soon filled with injuries, while there was not even a scratch on Dilip’s body.
‘It looks like I will need to use that skill if I want to defeat this cocky bastard,’ thought Vaibhav in his mind as he started strangely circulating his mana. The blood inside Vaibhav’s body started burning, forming an aura of fire around him.
It was a cursed skill, a skill that gave more power in exchange for a sacrifice. This skill used the blood of the user to give him a boost for some time.
