The next day, Skanda and Nina are practicing magic chants together and Kalp is getting bored.
'Brother, I am going to Oracle to read some books.'- said Kalp.
'Okay.'- said Skanda.
Kalp goes to Oracle and meets Father Clark. There are only two or three people in the Oracle.
'Hello, Father Clark.'- said Kalp.
'Hello son. How are you?' Father Clark asked.
'I am good, Father. I have come here to read and want to ask you something.'- said Kalp.
'What do you want to ask son?' Father Clark asked.
'Father, who is this deity? And why do you worship them?' Kalp asked.
'Son, do you really know nothing about it?' Father Clark asked. He gets shocked hearing his question.
'Actually, I had an accident earlier and because of that I had lost my memory. That's why I don't know anything.'- said Kalp.
'Oh, I am sorry, son. It is a long story, come sit, it will take time.'- said Father Clark. They both sit on a bench.
'A long time ago, around 2000 years ago, a flaming thing came down from the sky and from it four deities were born and they gave us a magic. After that everything had changed in a few years. Elves, demi-humans, dragons, giants, dwarfs, demon beings but those animals who had lost their control over mana, they had all become demon beasts. All the deities had chosen their own kingdom, just like our deity had chosen this kingdom. And this statue is of our deity Siriso.' Father Clark explained.
'Father, what about other three deities?' Kalp asked.
'One deity, named Vanir, chose Elves kingdom because he had created elves and looked like the elves. The other deity, whose name is Anubis, chose the Demi-human kingdom because he had created demi-humans and looked like a demi-human. Our deity created humans. Although humans were already here, but he also created some such humans who are called nobles in the Humans kingdom. He also created giants. That's why every kingdom prays their own deity.'- said Father Clark.
'Father, what about the forth deity?' Kalp asked.
'His name is Nephilim, he looked like demon beings, his skin and wings were red. In fact, he was a deity of the Demon kingdom. He also created some demon beings, but after a few decades, all four of deities had gone back to haven and the war had started between four kingdoms- Demon, Elves, Demi-humans and Human kingdom. Millions of humans, elves, demi-humans and demons were killed. But suddenly, the battle broke out between Nephilim and other three deities. The skin on Nephilim's face was totally burnt. He ran away and hid somewhere. Then the other three deities told us that Nephilim was the mastermind behind the war
between the four kingdoms. He was using
all humans, elves and demi-humans for sacrificing so that he could eat their souls and become most powerful among all the deities. After hearing this, all the three humans, elves, and demi-human kingdoms got united to kill the demons of the demon kingdom. After that demons were prohibited to go outside of the demon kingdom. From that day Nephilim was no longer a deity, he became a devil.' Father Clark said.
'Has no one seen Nephilim after that?' Kalp asked.
'There is a rumor that some people meet him, but it's all rumors because if he meets anyone, deities will also find out about him and they will kill him.' Father Clark said.
'Okay father, when was the last time people saw other deities?' Kalp asked.
'After going to heaven, deities come back only when something big happens and if anyone wants to meet, they have to pray sincerely from heart. This is the only way. So, if ever something happens in your life, always have faith in God, he will always help you.' Father Clark said
'Yes, father.' Kalp said with a fake smile;
'I never believe in gods. I believe they are other life forms but have more abilities than humans. The good thing is that all this happened about 1000 years ago. If I am lucky, I can meet at least one of them.' Kalp is thinking and feeling exited.
'Do you know why our village is named Sanctity?' Father Clark asked.
'No, but I think Sanctity means purity, right?' Kalp said.
'Yes. When Gods were fighting, then God Siriso's blood fell here that's why we built this village by making an Oracle here.' Father Clark said.
'How does that blood look like?' Kalp asked.
'I don't see that, but the previous father told me that it was blue in colour and solid in appearance. It was like a box filled with alive blood.' Father Clark said.
'Okay.' Kalp said with a smile.
'Father, Now I am going to library.' Kalp said.
'Okay son.' Father Clark said.
Kalp enters the library and sees about five hundred books all around. There are about thirty chairs with six tables and a small table in the centre of the library, where a register is on the table for entries of person and books. The book shelves are attached to the walls and there are different types of books such as elements magic chants books, sword fighting style books, cultivate books, medical chants and herbs books, history books, encyclopedias and many more.
'Wow! This is called heaven.' Kalp said with joy. 'So, where should I start?'
A few hours later, Kalp goes back to home. As Kalp enters his house, he sees Nina in pain. Her ankle is injured. Nina is sitting on a chair and her injured leg is kept on another chair.
'What happened Brother?' Kalp asked.
'Kalp, her leg was slipped on stairs and because of that her ankle is paining and Aunt Lily is also not here.' Skanda said.
'It's okay, brother, can you make an ice?' Kalp asked.
'Yes, but why?' Skanda said.
'Good, make a small piece of ice which can be easily grab with a hand.' Kalp said.'
'Okay' Skanda says, 'come forth ice' and blue magic circle comes near his palm and ice appears from that circle. Kalp takes that ice and massages her ankle with that ice.
'Nina, how are you feeling now?' Kalp asks.
'Felling better than before.' Nina said. Skanda is shocked to see that.
'Kalp, where did you learn this?' Skanda asked.
'I can't tell. It was common in my previous world, so everyone knew about it.'' Kalp thought and smiled and said 'I read in medical book in Oracle's library today.'
'Okay, brother.' Skanda said.
Kalp and Nina also becomes close friends in two or three days, so they re having a lot of fun together for two days. After two days, Liam and John come back home.
'Daddy, are you okay?' Nina asked.
'Yes, my princess, your daddy is quite well. I missed you so much my princess. Come and give a hug to your daddy.' John said running towards Nina for a hug.
'Daddy, I am not a little girl anymore and don't make me feel embarrassed.' Nina says angrily and punches John. Skanda and Kalp get scared seeing Nina's anger.
'I will never make Nina angry. If I do, she will break my teeth.' Kalp and Skanda thought. Both are looking at each other with holding owns mouth.
The next day, John starts Kalp's training. He comes back to yard after running and lies down on the ground. John is standing with two wooden bamboo swords.
'Kalp, always remember this is not a weapon, it is your body part. When you start using it as a part of your body, that day you will become a swordsman, okay?' John said
'Okay, uncle.' Kalp said normally.
'Say it loud and I am not your uncle, I am your master.' John said.
'Yes, master.' Kalp said loudly.
'Good, so, pick your sword and start hitting that human dummy.' John said.
There is an effigy of a human made of wood and stubble grass. John shows how to hit and then Kalp starts hitting. For the next four days, John teaches Kalp how to fight and Liam teaches Skanda and Nina magic and cultivation. On the fifth day, John and Nina are leaving.
'Bye, Skanda and Kalp.' Nina said.
'Bye, Nina.' Kalp and Skanda replied.
'Kalp, keep practicing every day, okay and never skip.' John said.
'Okay Uncle.' Kalp said with energy. 'Finally, I got relief from this torture, now, I can read books.' Kalp thought.
'That I like it. Now you are looking like a swordsman. Next time I will duel with you and see how much you improve.' John said feeling proud.
'I guess I celebrate too soon,' Kalp thought while giving a fake smile.
