The room was heavy with tension.
Rudra stood tall, his fists clenched. His eyes burned with an intensity that shook the very air. He wasn't going to let Ravihiro walk away with half-truths.
"Cleopatra," Rudra said, his voice deep and commanding. "Use your ability of soul and heart on him."
She hesitates at first but on Rudra Insist .Cleopatra's golden eyes narrowed as she lifted her staff. The Jackal-headed ornament glowed, and a dark golden mist spread around Ravihiro. This was the Judgment of Anubis—an ability that forced the soul to react to lies.
"Let's see if you really are what you claim to be, Ravihiro." Cleopatra smirked.
A sacred glyph formed around Ravihiro, glowing with divine light. A silent pressure settled over him.
And then, the questioning began.
The Lightning Strikes
Rudra's voice boomed through the hall.
"Are you from Earth?"
Ravihiro's expression remained calm, unreadable.
"No."
BOOM!
A massive bolt of golden lightning shot down from the heavens and struck Ravihiro head-on.
The entire hall shook. The ground cracked.
Gasps erupted across the room.
The Lightning of Truth was absolute.
This divine lightning caused unbearable pain—even the strongest of warriors screamed in agony when struck. But—
Ravihiro just stood there.
Unaffected. Unmoved.
The heroes' faces twisted in disbelief.
"Impossible..." Cleopatra whispered.
Rudra clenched his fists harder. "You lied."
Ravihiro remained silent, his eyes half-lidded, unimpressed.
Rudra's jaw tightened. Fine. If he won't admit it willingly…
"Are you an avatar of any god?"
"No."
The room held its breath.
No lightning struck.
A wave of murmurs spread—he was telling the truth.
The Questions Continue
Rudra took a step forward, his muscles tensed.
"Are you my brother?"
Ravihiro's voice was calm. "No."
BOOM!
Another bolt of lightning crashed into him.
Yet—he did not flinch.
The heroes watching froze.
Danny, the avatar of Michael, whispered, "How… is he not affected after two strikes? Even gods would collapse."
Sweat dripped from Cleopatra's brow. "This… this shouldn't be possible."
The divine power of Anubis was failing to affect him.
Rudra's eyes widened, realization dawning upon him.
Than he asks Ravihiro what is his name .
Than Ravihiro says Ravihiro
Rudra remaind silent for a minute as if he was thinking than asks
"You really are my brother, aren't you?"
Ravihiro exhaled, annoyed. He didn't answer.
But the golden glyphs around him glowed brighter.
The lightning intensified, ready to strike again.
A sharp BOOM! echoed through the hall as another bolt crashed down on him.
The Shocking Truth
The heroes stared in disbelief.
This was no ordinary warrior.
The Lightning of Truth was supposed to break a man—to bring him to his knees. But Ravihiro stood there like a statue, completely unfazed.
Cleopatra gritted her teeth. "This isn't working. This is NOT normal!"
Danny muttered, "He's defying divine laws… What kind of being is he?"
Rudra took another step forward.
"Are you hiding something from me?"
Ravihiro smirked. "Everyone has secrets, Rudra."
BOOM!
Lightning struck him again.
The shock rippled through the hall. Heroes backed away, unable to comprehend what was happening.
Rudra growled.
"Are you something more than human?"
Ravihiro's eyes finally opened fully, glowing with a mysterious light.
He said nothing.
The silence itself was an answer.
BOOM!
Lightning poured from the heavens, but this time—
Something strange happened.
The lightning didn't hit Ravihiro.
It stopped—crackling in midair, as if hesitating.
A deathly silence fell over the hall.
Rudra's eyes widened. "The lightning... is afraid of him?"
The heroes watching felt chills crawl up their spines.
Unanswered Questions
The air was thick with mystery.
Rudra's voice shook, his conviction unshaken.
"What… are you really, Ravihiro?"
The room waited.
Ravihiro's lips curled into a small smile.
"That, Rudra... is something even the gods don't know."
The hall trembled.
The heroes felt fear for the first time.
Cleopatra's hands clenched around her staff. The energy of Anubis flickered—as if even the God of Death himself was hesitant to judge this man.
And then—
Rudra slowly sat down. His eyes locked onto Ravihiro.
"You're coming with me after this meeting. You owe me answers."
Ravihiro just closed his eyes, unbothered.
