Chapter 172 - The Start Of Beginning

Ch-171

Raudra Muki said nothing but stayed silent. Her silence answered Esther's question. She closed her eyes and slumped on the floor. 

Like a movie, everything went in her mind frame by frame slowly. She remembered that she was an Army General of Heaven realm soldiers. She remembered training them and turned them into one of the best soldiers in the universe. She remembered where she fought hard and did a mass slaughter to protect the innocents. Soon… those things turned into pictures where the people started crying for her death. She saw a few of the royals being slaughtered in the Kshatra's Palace. Her memories flew from that scene to another scene where a man in a black cloak crying for her and fighting with his life after she was dead. Again she saw a woman saying that she was dead along with her children. She could see everyone's faces except for that man in the black cloak and the woman who looked stronger than her and looked like a warrior. 

Who were those people? 

She couldn't see the things or situations that happened after that. But she saw the woman who wore her saree like a warrior was with a saint as he led the funeral rituals for her body. 

So, this was what happened in her life. But she couldn't remember anything about her death. These were all the things she saw in her life. 

Would she be tagged as a selfish woman if she chose this peaceful life? 

She, Esther Benjamin, helped a scum now can't she take over her responsibilities. She remembered the desperate cries of women, homeless children, and her family. 

Because of her selfishness… She paid the price heavily. She almost cost her life. Not only hers but also Reggie's life. She shouldn't be selfish anymore. She should live the way she should and should accept reality rather than running away from it. 

She remembered the agony of that man who cried near her dead body. Esther felt he was somehow related to her. Maybe he was her destiny. She doesn't have the energy to bear another Arthur. Esther should go to the one who truly loved her. Maybe accepting this fate was also good to her, the people around her, and her family. 

"I believe, I am Raudra Muki, the Queen of Kshatra Kingdom," she said resolutely as she opened her eyes revealing her red eyes, which looked like the precious red stones, Garnet, with the shades of red and black which were the reflection of Raudra Muki's eyes. 

Apart from their hairstyles and dressing styles, there was no difference between the two of them. The sky rumbled loudly as if it's laughing at the acceptance of Esther's words and lit the crackers in the form of the brightest lightning which rarely occurred in nature. The sky started pouring down heavily as the dark sky filled with the red bolts of lightning making the sky look scary yet beautiful while it howled in pleasure with thunder. It's as if the heavens approved the decision of Esther. 

The room blinked as the lights switched on and off, reflecting Esther's blood-thirsty eyes in the night scarily. The curtains fluttered in the air, the ground shook violently, the things inside the room rolled down except for the five things near her painting and these two women never lost their footing. Esther didn't know how the curtains were fluttering even in this secluded place but she was not in the mood of caring about that thing. The vases which fell made the noises of clanking but never broke making Esther confused for a second but she soon informed herself as there were many unexpected things happening the delicate vases staying intact wasn't a miracle. The door which she closed shook a bit before it closed shut tightly. Raudra Muki's Frill flew in the air, her vermilion started glowing brightly making it obvious in the presence of both light and dark. Her lips dipped into a scary smile with content. The blood fountain stopped flowing as if it froze. 

Raudra Muki's soul started glowing brightly with golden light. Soon it blinded her eyes but she strained her eyes only to look at her. Esther felt like she was staring at a goddess when she saw her soul glowing in front of her eyes like a celestial being. Her Dravidian style of dressing added much more beauty to her look. Even though she was looking like a grieving soul, her dark aura couldn't hide her beauty. Even though Raudra Muki was her soul and it looked like a mirror image of Esther, she felt jealous for an unknown reason but soon she consoled herself as she reminded herself as the soul was going to be a part of her soon. 

Esther saw the golden aura around her was turning brighter to the point she felt like she was going blind just because of that. Soon… her soul turned into fine dust particles and made its way towards her. The fine golden particles made their way towards the space between her brows and started entering her head. Soon…. All the golden particles entered her body showing the obvious changes in her body, brain, and actions. 

Esther felt a pang of energy was surging through her veins. She felt like her veins were going to split due to the force. And her head was hurting as if someone was going to separate her brain and skull without giving anesthesia. She felt a heavy pain coursing through every inch of her body as Raudra Muki's soul merged with her body. Maybe it's because she was only twenty-four years old while her soul was two hundred and twenty-four years old. The soul was eleven times older than her and a thousand times powerful than her. By the time everything finished, Esther fell onto the ground limply due to the exhaustion of soul merging. She doesn't know how much time she slept, but she slept without her knowledge.
