Carnival of Death
Dungeon ~ Stage 1 Floor 1
“Kaisi Game?”
Game Master Aarav ke uske kareeb ane per he ab tak hairan tha. Lekin uske attitude ko daikh ker aur uski baat sun ker ab wo aur bhi hairan tha.
Usko ye samajh nahi aa rahi thi ke stage clear hone ke baad bhi Aarav aage badhne ki jagha situation ko khud ke liye aur difficult kyu bana raha tha.
Aarav (Nod): Yes, Let's play a game...!
Caroline: Corp-
Aarav ko game master ko challenge karte daikh ker Caroline bhi chaunk gayi. Unka aisa kisi bhi tarha ka plan nahi tha. Lekin Caroline ke beech mein ane se pehle he Yoo-Jung ne usko rok diya.
Caroline ne Yoo-Jung ki taraf daikha to usne usko shaant khadi rehne ka ishara ker diya. Yoo-Jung ko bhi kuch idea nahi tha. Lekin wo abhi situation ko observe karna chah rahi thi.
“Kekekeke, Interesting...!”
*Tuck*
Abhi sab Aarav ko ker daikh rahe the ke hava mein he kanhi se Malphas baahir aa gaya. Malphas ko udhar daikh ker ek pal ke liye Game Master bhi chaunk gaya.
Lekin Aarav ke uss arrogant behavior ke baad bhi Malphas ke expressions se lag nahi raha tha ke usko Aarav ki baat ka bura laga hai.
Game Master: Malphas?
Malphas (Grin): Laga he tha ke tum dusron se kuch to alag ho gye! Kekekeke, Lekin kya ye bahaduri hai ya bewakoofi?
Malphas ne game master ko bilkul he ignore ker diya aur Aarav ki taraf muskurate huwe honton per zuban fairate huwe daikhne laga. Uske chehre per ek lalsa dikhayi de rahi thi.
Aarav (Smug): Ab ye to game khelne ke baad he pata lage ga...!
Aarav ki baat sun ker Malphas aur bhi muskurane laga. Ab tak Aarav Malphas ke gaslight karne per kuch nahi keh raha tha. Lekin ab jaise usne unke saath he khelne ka nirnay le liya tha.
Malphas (Laugh): Kekeke...!
****
“Corpse!?”
Dungeon Master uski kursi per baithe huwe Aarav ko he daikh raha tha. Aarav ki harkat ne uska bhi dhayan khud ki taraf ker liya tha. Dungeon Master ke paas baitha vyakti Aarav ki team ki Information daikhne laga.
Vyakti (Reading): Corpse, Ye Kunle ki team mein hai! Kunle ko marked invitation se bulaya gaya hai. Anthony Delacroix paid five billion dollars to ensure he’d join the Carnival.
Dungeon Master: Five billion dollars, just to settle a grudge?
Vyakti (Nod): Yes, Anthony is the CEO of Sentinel Global Security, an international private security firm! Lekin Kunle ke protector guild banane ke baad se sab players ko he personal security ke liye hire ker rahe hai aur uske liye dugani keemat dene ko bhi taiyar hai. Anthony lost lucrative government contracts and corporate deals to Kunle’s guild.
Dungeon Master: Personal Security ke liye players?
Vyakti ki baat sun ker Dungeon Master ab Kunle ki taraf aur dilchaspi lene laga. Players Association aur guilds ki shuruaat huwe abhi 12 saal ke paas he huwe the.
Lekin ab tak sab players sirf gates ko clear karne per he dhayan dete the. Lekin aise mein Kunle ne ek security Guild bana li thi. Ye sun ker Dungeon Master bhi Kunle ki taraf dilchaspi se daikhne laga tha.
Vyakti (Nod): Haan, Kunle khud to sirf ek A rank Player he hai! Lekin uski guild ki ab tak 7 branches ban gayi hai aur uske under abhi 70K+ Players kaam ker rahe hai aur uske paas 1267 B-Rankers 768 A-Rankers 134 early stage S-rankers ke saath 7 Tutorial tower ke S-Rankers hai.
Dungeon Master: Hmm ~ Lekin ye Corpse kon hai?
Vyakti (Reading): Usne khud ki kisi bhi tarha ki personal information nahi di hai! Lekin probably wo Kunle ko marked invitation dene ka badla le raha ho ga.
Dungeon Master (Smug): Interesting, Lekin hamare paas uske challenge ko accept karne ka koi bhi reason nahi hai...!
Dungeon Master ne kursi per he seedhe baith ker muskurate huwe kaha.
Vyakti (Gasped): Huh?
Dungeon Master: What?
Vyakti (Gulp): Deathwatchers ne Corpse ko support karna shuru ker diya hai...!
Dungeon Master: What?

Carnival of Death
Dungeon ~ Spectators' Room
“Let's play a game”
“Woaaahhhh”
Spectators' Room ke andar Aarav ke challenge ko sun ker sabhi excited ho gaye. Unke beech mein se kuch ko Aarav ke arrogant behavior ko daikh ker gussa aa raha tha to kuch uske stage ko aur bhi zyada interesting banane per khush ho rahe the.
Kenneth (Deathwatcher): Ye behanchod, Who does he think he is? challenging the Game Master like that? Lagta hai yanha usko apni aukat ke baare mein ab tak pata nahi laga hai.
Kenneth ne ek he ghont mein drink ko khatam karte huwe kaha. Aarav ki harakat ko daikh ker usko ab aur bhi gussa aa raha tha. Ek Player ko aise aakar dikhate daikh usko jalan ho rahi thi.
Herbert (Deathwatcher): Hmm ~
Kenneth: Ab tumhe kya ho gaya?
Herbert ko soch mein dooba daikh ker Kenneth bhi hairan ho gaya. Kyu ke ab tak usne Herbert ko kisi bhi player ki death per ya stage clear karne mein intrest lete nahi daikha tha.
Herbert: I don't know, Lekin main daikhna chahata hu ke ye kya challenge de raha hai!?
Kenneth (Annoyed): Lekin aisa kyu? Hum kya uske orders ko follow karne ke liye paise de rahe hai aur yanha per aye hai? Ab kya wo games ko control kare ga?
Herbert (Smirk): Isn’t that why we’re here? To watch fools like him flirt with death? Kya farak padta hai ke wo Player ho ya game master khud he kyu na ho. Ab dono ko he tadapte daikhne ka utna he maza aye ga. But.... The audacity... it’s delicious. I’m almost rooting for him.
Kenneth ne uski aankhon mein daikha to Herbert ki aankhon mein khoon he utar aya tha. Uske hont ab excitement se kaanp rahe the. Herbert ek God ki tarha shikari ko shikar bante daikh raha tha.
“True pleasure is found when the predator becomes the prey, and the tables turn on those who once ruled with fear”
[#4 Deathwatcher paid 1 billion dollars to back Corpse’s challenge against the Game Master]
Ek notification badi screen per aya to sab ki nazar ek saath #4 Deathwatcher ki seat per chale gayi. Ek he pal mein kamre ki hava aur bhi bhaadi ho gayi thi aur tanav ka mahaul ban gaya tha.
Kenneth (Staring): Big Billy...!
#4 Deathwatcher Big Billy tha aur uski ungali green button ke upar thi. Big Billy dusron ki tarha wealthy family se nahi tha.
Big Billy ek aisa insaan tha jisne kuch he samay ke andar khud ka empire khada ker diya tha aur bohat se logo ka dhandha band karwa diya tha.
Un sab ke mann mein Billy ke liye bhi kisi player se kam nafrat nahi thi. Big Billy ne halka head tilt karte huwe aankhon ke kone se sab ki taraf daikha aur halki muskurahat ke saath muskurane laga.
Big Billy ki Side Eye sab ko mock ker rahi thi. Uske expressions udhar baithe sab Deathwatchers ko trigger ker rahe the. Big Billy unhe dikha raha tha ke uske liye players ke saath wo sab bhi keede makodon ki tarha he the.
*Click*
[#3 Deathwatcher paid 1.1 billion dollars to back Corpse’s challenge against the Game Master]
Big Billy ke paas baithe huwe ek aur Deathwatcher ne challenge ko support ker diya. Ek Deathwatcher har stage per sirf ek baar he support ker sakta tha to Big Billy stage 1 per aur support nahi ker sakta tha.
Lekin #3 ke Action se udhar aur bhi logon ke andar aag jalne lagi. Unke beech ab ek yuddh shuru ho chuka tha. Ab baat sab ke ego per aa gayi thi aur ab shaant rehna unke liye haar ka sanket ke barabar tha.
[#12 Deathwatcher paid 700 Million dollars to back Corpse’s challenge against the Game Master]
[#6 Deathwatcher paid 1 billion dollars to back Corpse’s challenge against the Game Master]
[#1 Deathwatcher paid 1.2 billion dollars to back Corpse’s challenge against the Game Master]

Malphas (Chuckle): Kekekeke, Fascinating...! Lagta hai kismat bhi tumhare saath he hai. Lekin kab tak ke liye? Kekekeke, Ab Socho... Aage badhna hai ya bheegi billi ban ker bhaagna hai?
Aarav ke game master ko diye challenge ko C.O.D ne accept ker liya tha. Lekin unke saath aur bhi bohat conditions thi. Aarav ke liye ye challenge har taraf se disadvantage per tha.
Usko na to kuch bhi challenge se mil raha tha aur usko challenge ke beech game master ko aur bhi advantage dene per rahe the. Ye kisi ke liye bhi ek maut se kam nahi thi.
Game Master (Smug): Kya huwa, Hava nikal gayi kya?
Game Master ne Aarav ki taraf chehre per ek vijayi muskurahat sajaye huwe kaha. Malphas bhi Aarav ki khamoshi ko daikh ker disappoint hone laga.
Aarav (Smug): Let's Play...!
Malphas: Huh...Sachi!? Sab kuch pata hone ke baad bhi?
Aarav (Nod): Haan, Sab kuch pata hone ke baad bhi...! *Smirk*

Takahashi's Residence
Wind Clan ~ 4 Days Ago...!
*Sigh*
Aarav Daisuke ki ghar ki chhat per baitha chand ki taraf daikh raha tha aur socho mein gum tha. Unke C.O.D mein jaane ke liye ab kuch he din baaki the aur Aarav abhi bhi sure nahi tha.
“Aarav”
Aarav ko bulate huwe Aakash aur Yoo-Jung dono upar aa gaye. Aarav ne he unhe udhar bina kisi ko bhi bataye ane ke liye kaha tha. Aarav ne ek baar confirm kiya ke udhar unke sivaye koi aur to nahi hai.
Lekin kisi ki bhi presence ke feel na hone per Aarav ne Tinkerbell ko ek sound barrier banane ke liye keh diya. Sound barrier se unki awaaz baahir kisi ko bhi sunayi nahi deni thi.
Yoo-Jung: Aarav, Yanha hamay akele kyu bulaya hai?
Aarav: Yanha hum C.O.D ke baare mein kuch baate karne wale hai! C.O.D se kisi aur ka connection nahi hai to unhe bulana sahi nahi ho ga. Unke paas unke apne task bhi hai karne ke liye.
Aarav ne unki C.O.D ke related ab tak huwi sabhi meetings se andaza laga liya tha ke har meeting ke saath sab unke liye aur dar he rahe the aur wo kisi bhi tarha se unki help nahi ker sakte the.
Aarav: Tinkerbell...!
Tinkerbell: [Huh, Kya huwa? Aur ye tum sab ke saamne kyu bula rahe ho?]
Aarav: Yoo-Jung aur Aakash ke saamne kabhi na kabhi tumhe ana he ho ga! Unse chhupane se kuch bhi nahi ho ga.
Tinkerbell (Annoyed): [Ughhh, Fine...!]
Aarav ke kehne per Tinkerbell bhi unke saamne ane ke liye taiyar ho gayi. Aarav ne bhi usko time dete huwe transform hone diya.
Tinkerbell: Fuuuu ~
Aakash aur Yoo-Jung ke saamne Tinkerbell ab ek human form mein khadi huwi thi. Ek pal ke liye usko daikh ker dono hairan reh gaye. Lekin unki hairani ka kaaran Tinkerbell ki khubsurati thi. Unke saamne jaise ek angel he khadi huwi thi.
Tinkerbell ne ab tak ye form sirf ek baar li thi Aarav ko bachane ke liye. Lekin tab ki situation aur ab ko situation alag thi. Lekin phir bhi Aarav ke kehne per usko calm hona per gaya.
Aakash aur Yoo-Jung bhi dono kuch he palon mein normal ho gaye. Aarav ne un sab ke beech ki uss Nervousness ke khatam hone ka intezar kiya aur uske baad dobara baat karni shuru ker di.
Aarav: Tinkerbell ko lagta hai ke shayad uske paas bhi C.O.D ki kuch Information hai! Abhi tak wo sure nahi hai. Lekin phir bhi ye information worth listening ho sakti hai.
Aarav ki baat sun ker un dono ko bhi pata lag gaya ke Aarav ne unhe kyu bulaya hai. Yoo-Jung Aarav ke saath ja rahi thi usko sab kuch pata hona bohat he zaroori tha.
Aakash ke paas C.O.D ki Association se bhi zyada information thi. Aarav usko sunana chah raha tha ke aise unhe kuch raasta dikh sakta tha. Ab sab he Tinkerbell ki taraf daikh rahe the.
Tinkerbell (Relaxed): Fuuuu ~ Main utni sure to nahi hu! Lekin shayad C.O.D ke baare mein main ne pehle bhi suna hai. Ab tak ki sab information ko sun ker mujhe lagta hai ke aisa kuch dusre worlds mein bhi ho chuka hai.
Yoo-Jung: C.O.D?
Tinkerbell (Nod): Uska naam ye nahi tha! Lekin tab bhi 4 stages ki ek dungeon thi aur uska Dungeon Master tha ek wizard king aur ye games Dungeon ko sacrifice dene ke liye aur wizard king ki power ko badhane ke liye hoti thi.
Yoo-Jung: Lekin ye dono alag bhi to ho sakti hai na?
Tinkerbell (Nod): Haan, Ye he reason hai ke main ab tak sure nahi hu! Lekin mujhe kuch aur khaas information mil sakti to main confirm ker sakti thi.
Aakash:... Deathwatchers?
Aakash ne kuch sochne ke baad kaha to Tinkerbell ka dhayan fauran uski taraf chale gaya. Aakash ne uska reaction daikha to wo muskurane laga.
Tinkerbell: Deathwatchers... *Nod* Haan, Ye wizard king ki dungeon mein bhi the...!
Tinkerbell ne kehte huwe ek book ko inventory se nikal liya aur uska ek page khol ker sab ko dikhane lagi.
[Who are Deathwatchers?]
[Deathwatchers are people who take pleasure in watching death and suffering. To become a Deathwatcher, they must give offerings to the Dungeon Master and try to win his favor. Those who manage to satisfy him earn a Deathwatcher seat, granting them some authority within the Dungeon]
Aakash ki baat aur Tinkerbell ki explanation ko sun ker sab aur bhi sure ho gaye the. Lekin ab sab ka dhayan Tinkerbell se Aakash ki taraf ho gaya tha.
Aakash (Smile): Bingo... Yanha C.O.D ke andar bhi Deathwatchers hai! Unke liye bhi aisi he condition thi. Ek bhaadi keemat dene ke baad unhe bhi dungeon ke andar Deathwatcher ki seath mili hai.
Yoo-Jung: Hmm ~ Agar hum kisi Deathwatcher ko hamari side per ker sake to hum C.O.D ke andar se bhi game ko manipulate ker sakte hai! Lekin hum ye kare gaye kaise? Kyu ke Deathwatcher per unki nazar ho gi he ho gi.
Yoo-Jung ka idea sahi tha. Lekin uska concern bhi sahi tha. Kyu ke Deathwatcher ke liye unhe kisi trusted insaan ki zaroorat thi.
Lekin Aarav abhi bhi shaanti se Aakash ko daikh raha tha. Yoo-Jung aur Tinkerbell bhi unhe daikh ker confuse ho rahi thi.
Aarav (Smile): Huh, Already tum ne Deathwatchers ko andar bheja huwa hai?
Aakash (Nod): Yes...!
Unki baat sun ker Yoo-Jung aur Tinkerbell dono he chauk gayi. Aarav ne ye guess to ker liya tha. Lekin guess karne ke baad bhi ye baat uske liye hairan ker dene wali thi.
Aarav: Lekin kaise?
Aakash kitne samay se bedridden tha ye Aarav ko bhi pata tha. Lekin uske baad bhi Aakash ne uska ek spy Deathwatcher bana diya tha. Ye baat Aarav ko bhi samajh nahi aa rahi thi.
Aakash: Kya tumhe sach mein lagta tha ke Sayani enterprise he mera sab kuch tha? Haan, Sayani ke liye unka business sab kuch tha. Lekin mere liye utna kaafi nahi tha.
Aarav: Aur Vansh ki barbadi?
Aakash (Smirk): Sab ko lagta hai ke Vansh ne sab kuch kho diya! Lekin uske peeche hamesha se he main tha. Vansh ko to main ne tumhare liye kuch bhi nahi kiya. Lekin main usko tadpaye bina kaise reh sakta tha?
Aarav: Huh?
Aakash (Smile): I stayed in the shadows, pulling the strings, making my puppets dance! I’m the one who ruined Vansh and took everything from him.
Aarav ne Vansh ki memories mein daikha tha ke usne sab kuch dheeme dheeme loss mein kho diya tha. Lekin ab ye sense bana rahi thi ke un sab ke peeche Aakash he tha.
Aakash khud saamne na ho ker bhi uske puppets se sab kuch control ker raha tha. Uske paas kuch na bhi ho ker sab kuch tha. He was the kind of man who can flip an entire country upside down on his own.
Ye pehli baar he tha ke Aarav khud ko lucky maan raha tha ke Aakash uske saath tha uske khilaf nahi tha. Aakash ke paas aur kya kuch tha uska Aarav ko bhi andaza nahi tha.
Aarav: Lekin kya guarantee hai ke wo trust karne ke layak hai? Ye bhi to ho sakta hai na ke wo dhokha de de?
Aarav kisi per bhi bharosa nahi ker sakta tha. Usne ek baar ker ke daikh liya tha. Lekin trustworthy log bhi majboori mein dhokha de he dete the.
Aakash (Smile): Trust him? You’re looking at this all wrong.
Aarav what?
Aakash: Dhokha dena to bohat dur ki baat hai! Even the thought would send him into a cold sweat.
Tinkerbell (Stunned): Kaise?
Aakash (Sigh): Huh... You see, I’m not the kind of man people cross! When I say I hold someone’s life in my hands, I mean it literally.
Aarav ya Yoo-Jung ye puchna bhi nahi chahte the ke Aakash ye kaise kare ga. Unhe ab tak andaza ho gaya tha ke Aakash ke paas uske khud ke raaste the uski kathputaliyon ko control karne ke.
Aarav: Aur tum Deathwatchers ke baare mein kab batane wale the?
Ye saval udhar sab ke mann mein tha. Aakash ke paas aisa trump card tha to usne ab tak unhe uske baare mein bataya kyu nahi tha?
Aakash (Smile): Main wait ker raha tha ke tum kab yanha tak figure out karte ho! Uske baad he main sab kuch batane wala tha.
Aarav: Aur agar main na ker sakta to?
Aakash: Ek to mujhe tum per poori tarha vishwas tha! Lekin uske baad bhi tum na ker sakte to main tumhe kisi halat mein bhi C.O.D mein participate na karne deta.
Aakash ke chehre ke bhav ek pal ke liye serious ho gaye. Un teeno ko mehsoos ho raha tha ke Aakash kitna serious tha. Unhe ab ye samajh aa rahi thi ke Aakash ka khauf sab ke raungte kyu khade ker deta tha.
Aarav: Lekin Kunle ka kya? Usko tum kaise bachane wale the?
Aarav ne Aakash se pucha bhi nahi ke wo usko kaise rokne wala tha. Usne seedhe aage ke baare mein pucha.
Aakash (Sigh): I only care about my people! The rest of the world can burn for all I care.

Carnival of Death
Dungeon ~ Stage 1 Floor 1
Malphas: Kekeke, Ab Konsi game ke liye challenge ker rahe ho tum?
Malphas ne uske honto per uski rakshasi jeeb ko firate huwe kaha aur hansne laga. Aarav ke diye gaye challenge ko accept ker liya gaya tha. Lekin ab usko batana tha ke wo konsi game ke liye challenge karna chahta tha.
Unke kaaran se baaki sab bhi stage 1 per he ruk gaye the. Unke beech se kuch gusse mein the to kuch thankful the ke Aarav ke kaaran unhen kuch aur samay jeene ke liye mil gaya tha.
Aarav ke saamne ek window khul gayi. Aarav ko ab uske andar game ki details add karni thi.
Aarav: Dare and Truth...!
Game Master (Dazed): Truth or Dare?
Game Master aur udhar sab thode hairan ho gaye ke Aarav ek simple truth or dare ke liye challenge ker raha tha. Lekin Aarav uska naam alag tarha se le raha tha.
Aarav: Nah, Dare and Truth...! Hum Dare and Truth khele gaye.
[ENTER]
Aarav ne game ki sab details ko add ker ke game ka challenge Game Master ko bhej diya. Aarav ke chehre ke confidence ko daikh ker Game Master kuch zyada khush nahi lag raha tha.
[Challenge Game Details: Dare and Truth]
[Round 1: Dares]
[The Game Master will start by giving 2 dares to Corpse]
[If Corpse completes both dares, he will give 1 dare to the Game Master]
[Round 2: Truth]
[The Game Master will then ask 2 questions to Corpse]
[If Corpse answers both truthfully, he will ask 1 question to the Game Master, which must be answered truthfully]
[Rules]
[No deadly dares: Dares must not result in death or bring the player close to death.]
[Within the stage: All dares must be doable within the current stage]
[Identity protection: Questions cannot reveal the other person’s identity]
[No C.O.D. questions: Questions related to the Carnival of Death are strictly forbidden]
[Switching roles: The role of Game Master switches during turns]
[Ability use: The person acting as Game Master during their turn can use their ability, but only once per question]
[No harm or attacks: Harm or any form of attack is prohibited at all times]
[Answer Rules]
[Time limit: 15 seconds will be given to answer each question]
[If the Game Master cannot confirm whether the answer is true within that time, it will be considered true]
[Knowledge of the truth: The person answering must know the truth. If they genuinely don’t know the answer, the question will be invalid]
Aarav khud ko disadvantage de raha tha khud ko 2 dares aur 2 questions de ker ab uske liye ye game master se double difficult tha. Lekin Aarav ne uski taraf daikha to Game Master utne se khush nahi tha.
Game Master ke chehre per ek darindgi se bhari huwi muskurahat aa gayi. Usko daikh ker udhar ke sab players he dar gaye.
Game Master: Ek aur condition ho gi! Mujhe diya gaya Dare bhi tumhe mere saath he karna ho ga.
Kunle (Furious): Ye to unfair hai! Ab ye bhi Corpse kare ga to Game Fair kanha rahe gi?
Game Master (Grin): Grow up, kid! Life was always unfair, get used to it!
Game Master ka javab sun ker Kunle ko ab aur bhi gussa ane laga tha. Lekin usne situation ko ab aur complicated karna sahi nahi samjha.
Kunle: Corpse, Ye game fair nahi hai! Mujhe nahi lagta ke tumhe aage badhna chahiye hai.
Tinkerbell: [Master, Kunle theek keh raha hai! Ye game kanhi se bhi hamare favor mein nahi hai aur na he hum kuch ker sakte hai. Mujhe nahi lagta ke ap ko aage badhna chahiye hai]
Aarav: [Dungeon Master ye he chahata hai! Uski ye he koshish hai ke wo mujhe kisi tarha se challenge waapis lene ke liye force ker de *Grin* Lekin mujhe laga tha ke ye kuch aur hard try kare gaye... Ye sab kuch ab bhi mere plan ke according he chal raha hai.]
Aarav ki baat sun ker Tinkerbell aur ghabrane lag gayi thi. Usko bhi pata tha ke sab unfair conditions ke peeche Dungeon Master tha.
Ye challenge agar Dungeon Master ki side se reject hota to Aarav ke challenge ki support offering bhi saath reject honi thi. Lekin agar Aarav he challenge ko waapis le leta to offering Dungeon Master ko tab bhi recieve honi thi.
Aarav (Smug): Accepted...! Now, Let's start.
[New Condition: Any dare Corpse gives to the Game Master, Corpse must also perform alongside him]
Game Master (Stunned): Huh?
Aarav ne uski add ki gayi condition ko bhi accept ker liya aur stage ke beech mein chala gaya. Lekin ye daikh ker Malphas aur bhi muskurane laga aur Game Master sirf uski audacity per hairan tha.
Malphas: Interesting *Slurp*
****
[$32,606,988,497]
Vyakti (Smile): Master, Ye challenge to hamari soch se bhi zyada kaam ka tha! Lekin kya Victor ko aise challenge accept karwana zaroori tha?
Vyakti uske saamne badhte numbers ko daikh ker khush ho raha tha. Lekin usko Aarav ka confidence dara bhi raha tha. Disadvantage per hone ke baad bhi Aarav back off nahi ker raha tha.
Dungeon Master: He's brave but not reckless! Lekin ab hum kuch ker bhi nahi sakte. Malphas rules ko kabhi bhi tootne nahi de ga... Ab Victor ke haatho mein he uska bhavishya hai.
Game Master uski kursi per peeche lean karte huwe aaram se baith gaya. Uske liye Game Master khaas tha. Lekin vyakti ke saamne badhte numbers ko daikhte huwe usne Game Master ko bhi ignore ker diya.
Vyakti (Smile): Best of luck, Victor...!

Carnival of Death
Dungeon ~ Stage 1 Floor 1
[Game Begin!]
[Round 1: Dares has started]
[The Game Master will now issue the first dare. Failure to comply with the rules will result in immediate death]
Aarav aur Game Master dono stage ke beech mein khade huwe the aur dono ke beech Malphas khada huwa tha. Lekin unke paas khadi Aarav ki team ab bhi uske liye pareshan thi.
Game Master (Grin): Stab your own eye with a dagger...!
[The Game Master has issued the first dare]
[Complete the dare to proceed to the next one]
*Stab*
*Squish*
Game Master (Stunned): Huh?
Game Master ke Dare dete he Aarav ne ek pal ke liye bhi nahi socha aur dagger se apni aankh ko phor diya. Game Master ke saath uski khud ki team bhi hairani se muh khole usko daikh rahi thi.
Aarav: Is that your best? *Scoff* Pathetic...!
Aarav ki phooti huwi aankh se lagatar khoon beh raha tha. Lekin uske baad bhi Aarav ke chehre per dard ka ehsaas bhi dikhayi nahi de raha tha.
Malphas (Excited): Not a twitch, Not even a flinch!? He's face remains cold and focused... Fascinating...!
Game Master bhi Aarav ki craziness daikh ker ab hairan tha. Lekin Aarav ke taunts per ab usko gussa bhi ane laga tha.
[You've been sponsored by a Deathwatcher!]
[Sponsor: Big Billy]
[Dungeon Points: 120]
[Big Billy has taken a special interest in your bravery]
[A powerful ally has chosen you. Use the points wisely]
Aarav ke saamne Deathwatcher ke sponsor karne ka notification aa gaya. Aakash ne usko sponsor ke baare mein bhi bataya tha.
Sponsor karne se Deathwatcher unke sponsor kiye gaye player ko message ker sakte the aur unko Dungeon points bhi de sakte the. $250K ka sirf ek Dungeon point tha to Big Billy ne Aarav ko $30M se sponsor kiya tha.
[Dare Completed]
[Corpse has successfully completed the first dare!]
[The Game Master will now issue the second dare]
Game Master (Sigh): Huh... Let's see ke tum kitna aage badh sakte ho! My second dare, Sever one of your teammate's hands entirely. No tools or help allowed *Grin* do it with your bare hands...!
Malphas (Chuckle): Kekekeke, Interesting...!
Game Master ko bhi ab ye samajh aa gayi thi ke Aarav ko target karne se kuch nahi ho ga. Ab uske paas ek he chance tha Dare dene ke liye aur usne ab ki baar Aarav ko nahi uski team ko target kiya tha.
Ek haath ko khona stage 1 per bohat he badi baat thi. Unhe abhi bhi aage 3 stages ko clear karna tha aur abhi haath khone ka matlab khud ko aur bhi risk mein daalne ke barabar tha ya seedhe maut he thi.
Aise mein koi bhi kisi aur ke liye to uske haath ko sacrifice karne ko taiyar nahi hona tha. Uske liye to ye har taraf se he ek win win situation thi. Aarav ko Game Master ke chehre per ayi Smug look saaf dikhayi de rahi thi.
Aarav (Grin): Sure...!
Game Master: Huh?
Aarav ko khud ke saamne dobara muskurate daikh Game Master aur bhi confuse ho gaya. Usko lag raha tha ke usne finally Aarav ko difficult spot per khada ker diya tha. Lekin uske baad bhi Aarav ke chehre per usko bebasi dikhayi nahi de rahi thi.
“Corpse”
Game Master (Frowns): Huh??
Game Master ne Aarav ke side mein daikha to uske paas usko Yoo-Jung khadi dikhayi di. Yoo-Jung ne uska haath khud he aage kiya huwa tha. Yoo-Jung ko udhar aise khadi daikh Malphas aur bhi hansne laga.
Game Master (Smile): Really? Kya tum samajh bhi rahi ho ke yanha haath khone ka kya matlab hai?
Yoo-Jung (Stared): Aur tumhe ye samajh aa rahi hai ke yanha haath na khone se kya ho ga, Dumbass?
Game Master: *Silence*
Yoo-Jung ke saval per Game Master bhi bilkul chup ho gaya. Yoo-Jung usko simple baat bata rahi thi ke yanha agar haath sacrifice nahi kiya to unke paas aage badhne ka mauka he nahi ho ga.
Aise mein haath bacha ker bhi kya he faiyda hona tha? Ye ek basic knowledge thi. Lekin bohat se log waisi situation mein selfish ho ker ye soch he nahi pate the.
Lekin Game Master ko bhi ye ehsaas nahi tha ke uske saamne khade huwe dono he log sadharan insaan nahi the. Unke khud ke teammate bhi unko daikh ker hairan the. Lekin wo bhi ab unko rok nahi sakte the.
Yoo-Jung ne ek baar dobara Aarav ke aage haath ker diya. Aarav ne bhi uske haath ko pakad liya aur usko khinchne laga.
*Rrrrriip!*
*Crack*
Aarav ne Yoo-Jung ke ek haath ko khinchate huwe ukhadna shuru ker diya. Yoo-Jung ki skin khinchati daikh aur uski haddiyo ke crack hone ki awaazon ko sun ker udhar sab ke raungte khade hone lage.
*Splash*
Aarav ne uske haath ko beech se ukhad ker alag ker diya aur uske alag hote he Yoo-Jung ke haath se khoon ka favara chhalak pada aur neeche girne laga.
Caroline (Shivering): Luna, Ye healing potion le lo...!
Caroline ne Yoo-Jung ko ek healing potion de ker heal karna chaha to Yoo-Jung ne usko beech mein he rok diya aur apne bacche huwe haath ko baandh ker khoon ko behne se rok diya.
Game Master (Stunned): Fucking Monsters...!
Game Master ko bhi ab samajh nahi aa rahi thi ke ye bahaduri thi ya bewakoofi thi. Lekin usko bhi ye samajh aa gayi thi ke dono he crazy the.
[Dare Completed]
[Corpse has completed both dares successfully!]
[It is now Corpse’s turn to give a dare to the Game Master]
[Reminder: The dare must also be completed by Corpse]
[Position Switching]
[The Game Master position has switched]
[Corpse is now the Game Master for this turn]
Ab Aarav ki turn thi Game Master ko Dare dene ki aur uske paas Game Master ki authority bhi aa gayi thi sirf uss round ke liye. Lekin ab usko bhi Dare ko saath he complete karna tha.
Ek saath sab log Aarav ke Dare ko sunane ko taiyar ho gaye. Yanha tak ke Game Master khud bhi ab thoda dar raha tha. Aarav ne ab tak usko bohat si unexpected cheeze dikha di thi.
Aarav (Grin): My dare is simple...! You have to do 200 pushups, 1,000 jumping jacks, a 10-kilometer run around the stage, 200 up-downs, and 100 burpees.
Game Master: What?
Game Master ke saath udhar baaki sab bhi Aarav ke dare ko sun ker hairan ho gaye. Aarav ab tak Game Master ke dares ko bachkane keh raha tha aur khud usko excercise ka dare de raha tha.
Aarav (Nod): Yes, But here’s the twist...! you’ll do it all under 10 times Earth’s gravity.
Game Master: Aur?
Aarav: Aur kuch bhi nahi...!
10 times gravity mushkil thi. Lekin dono he players the unke liye ye karna possible tha. Lekin ye dara uske baad bhi unke liye bohat easy tha. Ab Game master ko lag raha tha ke Aarav uske saath khel he raha tha.
Game Master: Ye kya chaal chal rahe ho? Konsi khurafat chal rahi hai tumhe dimag ke andar?
Aarav (Smile): Kaisi khurafat? Ek dare diya hai ab usko complete bhi to karo na...!
Malphas: Huh?
[The Game Master has been issued a dare by Corpse!]
Udhar sab he Aarav ke dare se hairan the. Lekin ye Game Master ke liye possible tha to usne ye karne ka soch liya kyu ke Aarav ne uske Dare ko Use ker liya tha.
Malphas: Adjusting Gravity...!
Malphas ne sirf unke upar Gravity ko 10 times aur badha diya. Game Master fauran he Pushups ke liye position mein aa gaya.
Aarav ne uski taraf ek baar muskurate huwe daikha aur usne apni shirt ko utaar diya. Uske baad wo bhi pushups ke liye neeche position per aa gaya. Unke upar gravity zyada thi ye position normal se hard thi unke liye.
*Thump*
Aarav: Let's start....1...2...3...4...!

“What the fuck? Ye konsa Dare diya hai? Hum kya yanha per logo ko excercise karte daikhne ke liye aye hai? Paisa barbad behanchod...!”
Ek Deathwatcher uski jagha se gusse mein uthate huwe bola. Uske saath aur bhi Deathwatchers khush nahi the. Lekin kuch abhi bhi daikhna chah rahe the ke ye game aage kya rukh leti hai.
Joe (Deathwatcher): Calm down...! Yanha per abhi kehne se kya ho ga? Ladka mujhe acha he lag raha hai. Aage kuch bhi ho sakta hai.
Bryan (Deathwatcher) (Furious): Usko karne he ho ga! Ye agar kuch nahi kiya to aage saale ki gaand maar ker rakh dunga.
Joe (Smile): Ye tumhara to pata nahi! Lekin shayad aur uski already taiyari ker rahi hai.
Joe ne unke paas mein he baithi ek Deathwatcher ki taraf ishara karte huwe kaha to Bryan bhi uski taraf daikhne laga. Unke saamne ek bohat he khusburat middle age woman baithi huwi thi.
Lekin uski nazar screen per shirtless Pushups laga rahe Aarav per thi. Aurat aise he Eye candy ladko ko pasand karne ke liye famous thi. Aarav ki body ko daikh ker uske bhi arman jaag rahe the.

*Panting*
[Dare Completed!]
[The Game Master has successfully completed the dare issued by Corpse]
Aarav aur Game Master dono ne he Dare complete ker liya tha aur Game Master ka sharir pasine se bheeg gaya tha. Lekin Game Master hairan tha ke Dare mein aur kuch bhi nahi huwa tha.
[You've been sponsored by a Deathwatcher!]
[Sponsor: Red Rose]
[Dungeon Points: 130]
[Red Rose has taken a special interest in your body]
Aarav: *Smile*
Game Master (Laugh): Hahahaha, Ye he Dara tha kya? Lagta hai main ne tumhe kuch zyada he overestimate ker liya tha... Pathetic...!
Aarav: *Smile*
Game Master Aarav ko taunt karne ki koshish ker raha tha. Lekin uske taunt per Aarav ne sirf uski taraf muskurate huwe daikh liya. Ye ab Game Master ko aur bhi satane laga tha.
[The Game Master position has switched back]
[The original Game Master has regained his position]
[We will now proceed to the next stage of the game]
[Round 2 Begins]
[Round 2: Truth]
[The Game Master will now ask the first question]
[Answer truthfully to move forward]
Ab unhone Dare round ko complete ker liya tha aur wo next stage per aa gaye the. Game Master ko uski authority bhi dobara mil gayi thi. Aarav aur wo dono dobara ek dusre ke saamne khade ho gaye.
[Ability (Mind Whisper) Activated]
“Fuck You...!”
Game Master (Stunned): What!?
Game Master Aarav ke thoughts ko read karne ki koshish ker raha tha. Lekin Aarav ke thoughts mein usko seedhe 2 unexpected words sunayi diye.
Game Master (Relaxed): Let's try again...!
[Ability (Mind Whisper) Activated]
“Kya daikhna chah raha hai dumbass?”
Game Master: Huh?
Game Master ko vishwas nahi ho raha tha. Lekin ye pehli baar tha ke koi uske saamne yun khud ke thoughts ko control ker raha tha. Lekin wo Aarav ke real thoughts ko read ker nahi pa raha tha.
Kisi bhi insaan ke liye uske thoughts ko shift karna easy nahi tha. Uske liye ek strong mentality chahiye hoti thi. Lekin uske baad bhi Game Master ke liye uske andar gade huwe thoughts ko padhan mushkil nahi tha.
Lekin Aarav sab se alag tha. Aarav ek bohat lambe samay ke liye insanon se dur monsters ke beech reh ker aya tha. Ek lambe samay tak ap ke paas baat karne ko koi na ho to insaan ke thoughts negative turn le lete the.
Aarav ne prison ke andar kayi jagha per uske mind ko shift kiya tha. Ye he kaaran tha ke Aarav ka mind dusron se aur bhi strong tha aur uske intelligence stats bhi 500+ the.
Uske liye ye child's play tha. Lekin ab uske saamne Game Master ko kuch bhi samajh nahi aa rahi thi ke ye kya ho raha hai. Lekin usko samay rehte he saval karna tha.
Game Master (Smile): What’s your biggest regret? The one that keeps you awake at night, clawing at your sanity. Say it. Out loud. Relive it.
Aarav (Thinking): Regret...? Yeah, i have one... My regret is challenging an idiot like you and thinking it’d actually be entertaining.
Malphas (Laugh): Kekekeke... Fascinating....!
Aarav ka javab sun ker Game Master uska chehra he daikhta reh gaya. Uske saath he udhar baaki sab ki bhi hansi nikal ayi. Ye daikh Game master ko bhi gussa ane laga.
[Ability (Mind Whisper) Activated]
“Stop Trying... Idiot...!”
Game Master ne ek baar dobara Aarav ke thoughts ko padhne ki koshish ki. Lekin ab ki baar bhi usko kuch bhi pata nahi laga aur ye baat usko aur bhi annoy karne lagi.
[The Game Master was unable to verify the truth of the answer within 15 seconds]
[The answer is automatically considered true]
[Proceed to the next question]
Game Master (Furious): Kaise ker rahe ho ye tum?
Game Master ne aakhir uske act ko chhod he diya aur seedhe seedhe puch liya. Lekin uske saval per Aarav ne javab nahi diya aur uske saamne apni middle finger ker di.
Aarav: Fuck You...!
Game Master (Furious): Yo-
Malphas (Interfering): Next Question...!
Malphas ke interfere karne per Game Master bhi shaant ho gaya aur agla saval sochne laga. Usne ab tak sirf dusron ki weakness per saval banaye the. Lekin uske paas Aarav ki ek bhi weakness nahi thi.
Game Master: Who begged you to stay, and you walked away? Did you even look back?
[Ability (Mind Whisper) Activated]
Game Master ne kehte saath he ability ko active ker liya aur Aarav ke first thought ko read karne ki koshish karne laga. Lekin uski harkat daikh Aarav ne apne head ko halka tilt ker liya aur muskurane laga.
“Your Mom”
*Thump*
Aarav ke thought ko read karte he Game Master ki aankhe ek pal mein laal ho gayi. Uske reaction ko daikh ker Aarav bhi chaunk gaya. Usne itna bhi strong reaction expect nahi kiya tha.
Aarav: Your Mom...!
Aarav ne ek baar dobara uske javab ko muh se bhi keh diya. Ye sun ker Game Master aage badhne laga to Malphas ne usko beech mein he rok diya.
Malphas: Next Question...!
[The answer has been verified as true!]
[Corpse has answered both questions truthfully!]
[Corpse may now ask one question to the Game Master, which must be answered truthfully]
[The Game Master position has switched]
[Corpse is now the Game Master for the final question]
[As per the rules, Corpse is allowed to use the ability he selected before the game started]
Game Master (Breath): Fuuuu ~ Huh...!
Game Master Aarav ke last question ke liye ready ho gaya. Usko ab sirf ek javab dena tha aur wo uske baad Game khatam ker sakta tha.
Usko regret tha ke wo Aarav ko hara nahi saka tha. Lekin uske baad bhi usne kuch bhi ab tak khoya nahi tha. Lekin usne Aarav ki taraf daikha to uske andar dobara khauf janam lene laga.
Aarav ke chehre per ek katilana muskurahat saji huwi thi aur wo Game Master ko aise daikh raha tha jaise ek bhediya uske shikar ko daikhta tha.
[Analyzing target's mental state...]
[Analysis Complete]
[Target Status: Exhausted]
[Target’s mental defenses: Weak]
[Guard Status: Lowered]
[All conditions for ability (Mnemosyne's Gaze) have been met]
[Ability (Mnemosyne's Gaze) Activated]
Aarav ne uski aankhen band ker li aur usne apni ability Mnemosyne's Gaze ko active ker liya. Aarav ke Game Master ko diye Dare se wo abhi bhi bohat exhaust tha aur ab tak Aarav ke usko mock karne se uski mental strength bhi kam ho gayi thi.
Ye he mauka tha Aarav ke paas uske mind mein ghusne ke liye. Aarav ko aankhen band kiye daikh ker Game Master thoda hairan huwa. Lekin uske kuch samajh ata usse pehle he Aarav ne uski aankhon ko khol liya.
Lekin ab Aarav ke chehre per kuch alag he tarha ke expressions the. Disgusted, Shocked aur happy ek saath Aarav ke chehre per bohat se expressions the. Lekin sab ke baad Aarav ke chehre per dobara ek muskurahat thi.
Aarav (Grin): You filthy little creep! Did you really enjoyed fucking your own mother?
[Corpse has asked his question to the Game Master]
*Ba-dump-Ba-dump*
Ek pal mein Game Master ke dil dhadkane badhne lagi aur uske chehre ki rang udne lage. Usse uske khud ke kaano per vishwas nahi ho raha tha. Lekin Aarav ke chehre ki muskurahat se uske sharir aur bhi kaanp raha tha.
Game Master (Trembling): Y-Ye kya keh rahe ho? Y-Ye kab huwa?
Aarav: Come on, Stop pretending and tell me! How did it feel? Did she scream? Did she beg you to stop?
Game Master (shaking, breaking down)! Please...! stop...!
Game Master khud ko mushkil se control ker raha tha. Uski nazre uske aas-paas khade huwe sab logo ki taraf daikh rahi thi. Sab log usko ab ghin ki nazron se daikh rahe the.
Aarav (mockingly): Stop? But I’m just getting started! (leans in closer) Tell me, how did it feel to screw the very hole you came from?
Game Master (Scream): I said, Stoopppp!
*Bang*
*Bang*
*Bang*
*Clank*
Game Master ne kehte huwe gun ko uthaya aur Aarav ko shoot ker diya. Lekin Aarav ne ek dagger nikal ker uski Bullet ko beech se kaat diya.
Game Master ek baar dobara shoot karne laga to unke beech Malphas aa gaya.
Malphas: Game Master? *Scoff* Disappointed...!
[The Game Master has failed to provide a truthful answer]
[The Game Master attempted to harm Corpse during the challenge]
[Violation Detected: The Game Master has lost]
[Penalty: The Game Master will now Die.]

*Thud*
“Ouch”
Yoo-Jung ka sar bakse se takda ker Aarav ki chhati per tik gaya. Aarav aur Yoo-Jung abhi ek bakse ke andar band the aur unke beech ab bilkul bhi jagha nahi thi aur dono ek dusre ke saath chipke huwe laite the.
Caroline (Frustrated): Tum dono ka aise bakse mein band ho ker jana zaroori hai kya?
Bakse ke baahir he Caroline aur Becky baithi huwi thi. Caroline ne dheemi awaaz mein unse pucha to unhe bhi ishara mil gaya ke abhi baahir unke sivaye aur koi bhi nahi hai aur wo andar se bol sakte hai.
*Click*
Aarav ne bhi bakse ko khol diya aur dono udhar he baith ker saans lene lage. Unhe usmein band bohat ghante ho chuke the. Ship ke kamre ke andar sach mein aur koi nahi tha. Lekin Aarav aur Yoo-Jung phir bhi pure baahir nahi aa rahe the.
Aarav: Hum kisi ko bhi pata nahi lagne de sakte ke main C.O.D mein participate ker raha hu! Ek baar ye bhanak lagte he ke main abhi baakiyo ke saath nahi hu kya pata ke Kim Min-Soo aur Kim Soo-Hyun kya kare gye?
Aarav aur Yoo-Jung dono he Caroline aur Becky ke saath C.O.D mein participate ker rahe the. Aarav aur Yoo-Jung Level Up Tower mein to shadow ke saath pohanch gye the.
Lekin uske baad wo kisi ki bhi nazron se bachne ke liye Becky ke weapons ke bakson mein chup ker he udhar se ship mein island se nikal rahe the. Island se baahir jaane ke liye unhi ships ka Use hota tha
Aarav ussi ship ki madad se he dusri country travel ker raha tha bina kisi ki bhi nazron mein aye.
Aarav Association mein bhi kisi aur per trust nahi ker raha tha. Michael association ka head to zaroor tha. Lekin Association ke sabhi members Michael se loyal bhi ho ye zaroori nahi tha.
Ye he kaaran bhi tha ke Aarav association ki ship mein bhi chhupa huwa tha. Kyu ke ab tak shayad Kim Min-Soo sirf Avinash ke kaaran he seedhe attack nahi ker raha tha.
Lekin ek baar C.O.D mein jaane ke baad to Aarav bhi usko jeete bina baahir nahi aa sakta aur uske udhar hone ki bhanak lagte he Kim Min-Soo kuch bhi ker sakta tha.
Becky: Lekin tum bhesh badalkar ker bhi aa sakte the na?
Becky ne bakse ke kareeb hote huwe saval kiya.
Yoo-Jung: Hamay ab tak andaza nahi hai ke Elite guild ke members kon hai!? Someone from the Elite guild might have the ability to see through disguises...!
Yoo-Jung ki baat sun ker ab Becky ko bhi uski baat sahi lag rahi thi. Disguise se bhi kisi ko pehchan lene ki ability kisi ke paas ho bhi sakti thi aur unhe fake identity ki bhi zaroorat honi thi.
Caroline: Lekin Aarav to uski appearance puri tarha se bhi badal sakta hai na?
Aarav (Nod): Yes, Lekin abhi appearance change karne ki liye mere paas enough points nahi hai! Aur ek baar agar bhesh badal bhi liya to mujhe ye roop dobara lena ho ga aur utne points earn karne easy nahi hai.
Abhi bhi Caroline ko Aarav ki ability ke baare mein kuch bhi nahi pata tha. Lekin Michael ke kehne per Caroline usko kuch bhi batane ke liye push nahi ker rahi thi.
Caroline: Lekin tum dono phir C.O.D mein kaise participate karo gye?
Caroline ko achanak se khayal aya to usne fauran he puch liya.
Aarav: Kyu ke C.O.D ka ek rule hai ke participant ko apni identity reveal karne ki bilkul bhi zaroorat nahi hai...! Yanha tak ke host ko bhi unki identity nahi pata hoti.
Caroline: Lekin hum sach mein rules per trust ker sakte hai kya?
Aarav (Nod): Haan, Kyu ke main bina plan ke andar nahi ja raha...!
Aarav ki baat sun Caroline bhi usko kuch pal ke liye hairani se daikhne lagi. Usko ache se pata tha ke Aarav ko C.O.D ke baare mein pehli baar Michael se pata laga tha.
Lekin abhi uske confidence se lag raha tha ke usko unse bohat zyada pata tha. Caroline ko ab aur bhi bohat kuch janane ki utsukta ho rahi thi. Lekin usne khud ko kabu ker ke rok diya.
*Knock-Knock*
Unke kamre ke darwaze per kisi ne knock kiya to Aarav aur Yoo-Jung dobara bakse ke andar chale gaye. Aarav ne Yoo-Jung ki kamar per haath rakh diya aur wo uske upar he lait gayi aur dono he khamosh ho gaye.
*Ba-dump-Ba-dump*
Aarav: Huh? Tumhari dil bohat zoro se dhadak raha hai...!
Yoo-Jung: Kyu ke hum kuch zyada he kareeb hai ...!
Aarav: Umm...Okay ...!
Yoo-Jung ki direct baat sun ker Aarav bhi thoda chaunk gaya. Lekin usko bhi pata tha ke Yoo-Jung sadharan ladkiyon ki tarha nahi thi. Yoo-Jung uski feelings ko chhupati nahi thi.
“Hello, We'll be docking at Port Lagos, Nigeria, in one hour! Please get ready.”
Aarav ko baahir darwaze per kisi ki awaaz sunayi di to wo samajh gaya ke ship staff mein se koi udhar aya hai. Ek ghante mein ab wo log Nigeria pohanchne wale the.
Aarav (Breath): Fuuuu ~
Yoo-Jung: Kunle ki fikar ho rahi hai kya?
Aarav ke chehre ki taraf daikhte huwe Yoo-Jung ne usse puchha. Aarav ne bhi haan mein sar hila diya.
Yoo-Jung: Don't worry, Hum ab usko kuch bhi nahi hone de gaye...!
Yoo-Jung ne Aarav ke sar per apne haath ko rakhte huwe usko apne kandhe per rakh diya. Aarav ne bhi apni aankhon ko band ker liya aur kuch der ke liye waise he udhar aaram karne laga.
Lekin uske saath he Yoo-Jung ko bhi Kunle ki utni he chinta ho rahi thi. Usko bhi andrew ki maut ka utna he dukh tha jitna Aarav ko tha. Unhone uske saath zyada samay to nahi bitaya tha.
Lekin Andrew unki party ka ek khaas member raha tha aur ab baat uske bete ki thi.
Yoo-Jung: Huh... Hum ab usko kuch bhi nahi hone de gye ...!

Wind Clan ~ 6 Days Ago...!
*Yawn*
“Huh, Aarav ne ab itni subha subha kyu bulaya hai sab ko?”
Isabelle ne Daisuke aur Tsubame ke saath chalte huwe ubasi lete huwe kaha. Isabelle pichle 4 dinon se Aarav ke saath training ker rahi thi aur kal raat ko bhi wo uske kaaran der se soyi thi. Lekin usko ab dobara subha ke 8 baje he utha diya gaya tha.
Tsubame: Aarav ne agar aise sab ko bulaya hai to kuch khaas baat he ho gi ...!
Isabelle (Yawn): Huh, Nevermind ...!
*Tuck*
Daisuke: Yoo-Jung!?
Abhi teeno udhar pohanchne he wale the ke unhe dusri taraf se ati Yoo-Jung bhi dikh gayi. Aur uske saath he Saanvi bhi aa rahi thi. Aarav ne ek saath sab ko he bula liya tha.
Daisuke: Aarav ne tum dono ko bataya hai ke baat kya huwi hai?
Yoo-Jung: Nahi, Hamay bhi sirf abhi ke abhi yanha ane ke liye kaha gaya hai ...!
Tsubame (Annoyed): Daisuke seriously? Ek minute lage ga hamay uske paas jane ke liye. Lekin tumhe yanha guess wali game khelni hai?
Daisuke (Smile): What? Ab ek detective nahi hu to kya ho gaya? Abhi bhi aise kuch guess karne mein utna he maza ata hai.
Tsubame (Sigh): Lagta hai galat candidate ko he Leader bana diya ...!
Daisuke (Giggle): Not my fault ...!
Tsubame (Smile): Fine, Ab chalo ...!
Tsubame usko pakadte huwe kheench ker udhar se le gayi aur sab Aarav ke bulaye gaye kamre ki taraf chale gaye.
*Swooosh*
Daisuke ne kamre ke darwaze ko slide karte huwe side per ker ke khol diya aur sabhi kamre ke andar chale gaye. Udhar Aarav ke saath Aakash aur Spirit clan ke baaki teeno members Dhanush, Kavya aur Rishabh baithe huwe the.
Lekin udhar aye sab log Aarav ke chehre ke bhavon ko daikh ker hairan ho gaye. Aarav uski feelings ko baahir nahi ane deta tha. Lekin abhi unke saamne Aarav bilkul serious aur thoda pareshan baitha huwa tha.
Tsubame: Aarav... Sab theek to hai na?
Aarav (Nod): Haan, Sab baithiye mujhe ap sabhi ko kuch batana hai...!
Aarav ki baat ko sun ker sab udhar he jagha daikh ker baithate gaye. Ab Aarav ke saath baki sab bhi serious ho ker baith gaye the aur sabji situation ki gambhirta ko samajh rahe the.
Aarav: Main ne C.O.D mein participate karne ka nirnay le liya hai...!
Aarav ki baat sun ker udhar Aakash ke sivaye baaki sab he hairan ho ker usko daikhne lage. Unhe abhi Aarav se aise kisi bhi nirnay ki umeed nahi thi.
Daisuke: What? Lekin abhi kaise? Ab tak hamay fire clan ke related kuch bhi khabar nahi mili hai aur aise mein tum chale gaye to kise pata kya ho ga?
Yoo-Jung (Nod): Main bhi Daisuke ki baat se puri tarha se sehmat hu! Ab tak hamay sirf Eleven ka he pata laga hai aur usko handle karna he sab ke liye possible nahi hai. Agar abhi ke liye unse koi bhi lad sakta hai to wo sirf tum he ho.
Yoo-Jung he nahi udhar baithe sabhi log Daisuke ki baat ke saath sehmat the aur Aarav ko bhi pata tha ke uske jaane ka kya matlab tha. Aarav ke na hone per bohat kuch bigad sakta tha.
Aarav (Sigh): Huh, Ye he kaaran tha ke main ab tak ruka huwa tha lekin...! Lekin ab Kunle ko bhi C.O.D ka invitation aa gaya hai.
Isabelle: Kunle ko bhi?
Aarav: *Nod*
Daisuke: Hum usko participate karne se rok bhi to sakte hai na? Main usse baat kar-
Aarav: Marked Invitation...!
Aarav ki baat sun ker kamre mein sannata sa chha gaya aur sab Aarav ki taraf daikhne lage. Daisuke ke shabd bhi uske muh mein he ruk gaye the.
Daisuke: Main bhi aa raha hu...!
Aarav: Nahi.
Daisuke: Kyu?
Aarav: Ek invitation per sirf 5 logo ki he party ban sakti hai! Kunle ke saath Association se 2 log aa rahe hai to yanha se mere saath sirf ek aur ja sakta hai.
Daisuke: Mai-
Aarav: Nahi, Abhi tumhari yanha per zyada zaroorat hai! Abhi bhi baaki clans ke saath baatchit baaki hai aur yanha per bhi sab ko lead karna hai to tum saath nahi aa sakte ho.
Dhanush: L-Leader, Kya main aa sakta hu?
Dhanush ne bhi Aarav ka saath dena chaha kyu ke usko ab lag raha tha ke wo Aarav ke liye kuch bhi nahi ker saka tha aur ek useless burden ki tarha uske saath hai.
Aarav ko Leader na banane jaisi badi baate karne ke baad ab wo khud ek bojh ban gaya tha. Usko bhi ab khud ki kahi baato ka bura lag raha tha.
Aarav: C.O.D mein sirf players he participate ker sakte hai...!
Dhanush (Nod): Okay...!
Tsubame: Aarav, Tum ne kisko chunna hai?
Aarav: Yoo-Jung?
Aarav ne uske paas baithi Yoo-Jung ki taraf daikhte huwe uska naam liya to sab ko pata lag gaya ke Aarav ne kisko chunna hai. Yoo-Jung ne bhi haan mein sar hilate huwe participate ke liye haan keh diya.
Aarav: Hamay waapis ane mein kuch samay lag sakta hai! Umeed karta hu mere waapis ane tak kisi ko kuch bhi nahi ho ga?
Aarav ko abhi bhi sab ki chinta ho rahi thi. Usne he war ki shuruaat ki thi. Lekin ab usko khud ko he ye samay sahi nahi lag raha tha. Uske chehre per ayi chinta ki lakiren sab ko dikhayi de rahi thi.
Tsubame (Smile): Aarav, Main promise karti hu ke tumhare waapis ane tak wind clan aur main sab ko protect kare gye! Abhi tumhe sirf apne saamne aa rahi chunautiyon ke baare mein sochna chahiye hai. Yanha ke liye hum sabhi yanhi per hai.
Tsubame sarak ker aage ho ker Aarav ke kareeb ho gayi aur uske sar per haath rakhe huwe uske baalo ko bigadne lagi. Uski harkat ko daikh ker Aarav ke chehre per bhi muskurahat aa gayi aur usne bhi ab sakun ki saans le li aur sab per vishwas karne ka nirnay le liya.
Aarav: Thank You, Sensei...!

Kunle's House
Nigeria ~ 2:11 PM
“Darling”
Kunle ne uski wife Kemi ko kursi per baithaya aur khud bhi uske saamne baith gaya. Kemi ki aankhe aansuon se bheegi huwi thi aur Kunle sirf lachari se usko daikh raha tha.
Kunle: I'm sorry...! Main ne tumse promise kiya tha ke mere kaam se kabhi tumhe takleef nahi hone du ga *Sigh* Lekin ant mein main apni kahi baat ko he pura nahi ker saka.
Kemi aur Kunle ki love marriage thi. Kemi bhi ek player he thi. Lekin uske dar ne usko kabhi player life jeene he nahi diya aur na he Kemi uss zindagi ko chahati thi. Usko sirf aur sirf ek khushiyon se bhari huwi zindagi chahiye thi.
Usne Kunle ko bhi uski guild se retirement lene ke liye kaha tha. Lekin Kunle ne usko vada kiya tha ke wo kabhi bhi kisi bhi tarha ka dangerous kaam nahi kare ga aur hamesha laut ker ghar he aye ga.
Lekin ab ki baar Kemi ke saath Kunle ko bhi dar lag raha tha. Kyu ke ab tak usne C.O.D se kisi ke bhi laut ker ane ke baare mein nahi suna tha. Ye soch ker he Kunle ka sar lachari se neeche jhukta gaya.
“Kunle”
Kunle: Huh?
Kemi ne Kunle ke chehre ko haatho mein lete huwe uska sar utha diya. Kunle ne sar utha ker saamne daikha to Kemi usko muskurate huwe daikh rahi thi. Ye daikh ker Kunle bhi hairan ho gaya ke har samay darne wali uski biwi aisi situation mein bhi muskura kaise rahi thi.
*Mmmhh ~*
Kemi ne aage badh Kunle ke honton per apne hont rakh diye aur uske sar ke peeche haath rakh usko chumne lagi. Kunle ne bhi Kemi ko kamar se pakad liya aur sab khayalon ko saamne se hata ker apni wife ke saath uss moment ko enjoy karne laga.
Unki ye kiss kuch samay tak chalti rahi aur kuch he der ke baad dono alag ho gaye. Lekin ab un dono ke beech se wo mayusi khatam ho gayi thi.
Kemi: Kunle, Ap ko waapis ana he ho ga! Kyu ke ap ka intezar sirf main he nahi mere saath koi aur bhi ker raha ho ga.
Kemi ne Kunle se kehte huwe uska haath pakad ker apne pait per rakh diya. Lekin Kunle ko uska ishara samajh nahi aya aur wo uske pait ko sirf daikhta he raha. Lekin uski samajh mein ate he uski aankhe khul gayi.
Kunle (Dumbfounded): Huh?
Kemi (Smile): *Nod*
Kunle: Really?
Kemi (Giggle): Haan, Really...!
Kunle (Excited): Kemmmiiii...!
Kunle ne khade ho ker Kemi ko utha liya aur usko le ker ghoomne laga. Uske chehre per ayi huwi khushi ko daikh ker Kemi bhi muskurane lagi. Kunle ne bhi usko dobara kursi per baitha diya aur khud zameen per baith ker Kemi ke pait ke paas ho gaya.
Kunle (Smile): Hey, little one. Your mummy just told me the news! Main shabdon mein bata nahi sakta ke main kitna khush hu.
Kunle ne kehte huwe Kemi ki taraf daikha to wo bhi muskurate huwe usko baate karte daikha khush ho rahi thi.
Kunle (Nod): I promise you, no matter what! I’ll find a way, I’ll come back...for you...and your mummy.
*Knock-Knock*
Kunle ke ghar ke darwaze per kisi ne knock kiya to wo dobara se khada ho gaya. Uske jaane ka samay ho gaya tha usne ek baar Kemi ke mathe ko chum liya aur Kemi ne bhi usko jaane ki permission de di.
Kunle ne darwaze ke paas aa ker darwaza khola to usko baahir he uska secretary khada dikh gaya aur uske haath mein Kunle ka bag bhi tha. Usko kuch bhi kahe bina Kunle uske saath aage badh ker car mein baith gaya.
Kunle ko aise hadbadi mein car ke andar baithate huwe daikh ker secretary bhi thoda sa hairan to huwa. Lekin usne kuch bhi kaha nahi aur uske bag ko bhi car mein rakhne laga.
*Click*
*Vroom*
Secretary driving seat per baith gaya aur usne car ko driveway se nikal liya aur aage chalane laga.
Kunle (Groan): Ughhhh... Drive Faster...!
Secretary: Huh!?
Secretary ne rear-view mirror se peeche daikha to car ki back seat per Kunle uska haath pakad ker dard se karah raha tha. Ye daikh ker usne bhi car ko bhagana shuru ker diya.
Kunle (Groaning): Ughhh, Sab aa gaye hai kya?
Secretary (Panicking): Yes sir, Association se sabhi g-guest aa gaye hai! *Gulp* Aur sab a-ap ka he wait ker rahe hai.
Kunle (Groaning): Huh, Gooood ughhh...!
*Screech*
*Vroom*
Secretary bhi panick mein car ko aur bhi zyada tezi se bhagane laga. Usne ek baar dobara mirror se peeche daikha to Kunle uski shirt ki sleeves ko upar ker raha tha.
Lekin uske arm ko daikhte he secretary ki aankhen khauf aur hairat se khul gayi. Kunle ke haath ki aur poore arm ki nasse phul rahi thi aur kale rang ki ho gayi thi.
Uska haath bhi buri tarha kaanp raha tha aur aisa lag raha tha ke abhi uski nasse phat jaye gi ya uska poora haath he phat jaye ga. Lekin ab uske haath ke saath uski neck ki bhi nasse phulne lagi thi.
Secretary: Sir...!
*Screech*
Kunle (Groaning): Don't stop...! Hamare paas abhi rukne ka samay nahi hai.
Secretary ko car road ke side per lete daikh Kunle ne unchi awaaz mein usko kaha to secretary ne bhi car ko roka nahi aur car ko aur bhi tezi se bhagane laga.
Ye dard to Kunle kab se sehan ker raha tha. Lekin usne Kemi ke saamne khud ko dard mein dikhne nahi diya aur uske saamne muskurate huwe baat karta raha. Usne ye sirf aur sirf Kemi ko pareshan na karne ke liye kiya tha.
Lekin ab uske paas ek aur bhi bara reason tha usko aur pareshan na karne ke liye. Back seat per baitha Kunle sirf uske bache ke baare mein soch ker dard mein bhi muskura raha tha.
Kunle (Smile): I’ll come back alive...!

“Perfect”
Aarav ki awaaz sun ker Yoo-Jung ne uski aankhon ko khol liya. Aarav uske saamne he baitha huwa tha aur uska haath Yoo-Jung ke chehre per tha.
Yoo-Jung: Lag gaya kya?
Aarav (Nod): Haan...!
Aarav ye kehte huwe uth gaya aur uske paas khadi huwi caroline haath mein ek mirror pakad ker aage aa gayi. Yoo-Jung ne mirror mein khud ko daikha to uska chehra bilkul he badal gaya tha.
Yoo-Jung: Unbelievable, Lag he nahi raha ke ye asli chehra nahi ek mask hai!
Caroline: Kyu ke ye fake nahi hai! Ye ek real human face hai.
Yoo-Jung (Stunned): What the fuck? Ye mujhe kisi ne bataya kyu nahi ke main kisi ka chehara pehan rahi hu?
Caroline: Aarav ne batane se roka tha! Aarav ne he hum se mask ki request ki thi. Disgusting, Right?
Yoo-Jung (Sigh): Huh, Nevermind! Lekin...!
*Woooosh*
Yoo-Jung ek jhatke mein aage badhate huwe Aarav ke kareeb aa gayi. Uska haath Aarav ki kamar per tha.
Yoo-Jung: Next time agar aisa kuch karna huwa to ek baar mujhe bata dena...!
Aarav (Smile): Sure...! Lekin agar puchta bhi to tum haan he kehne wali thi.
Yoo-Jung: Whatever, Ye kiske chehre hai?
Caroline: Ye dono he criminals the! No identity aur na he koi apna tha. Disguise ke liye ye perfect face the.
Aarav (Nod): Yes, Hum C.O.D mein faces ko cover to kare gye he! Lekin ye extra precautions hai.
Aarav kehte huwe ghoom gaya. Usne bhi apne face per dusra face laga liya tha.
Yoo-Jung (Nod): Good, Lekin tumhe har baar sexy logo ke chehre kaise mil jaate hai?
Aarav: Sexy, What?
Yoo-Jung: Ab aise bano nahi ke jaise tum ne suna nahi ho! *Sigh* Huh, Avinash sir bhi handsome the aur ye face bhi acha hai.
Aarav (Smile): Lekin tum ne har baar bola hai! Kya mera chehara bhi?
Yoo-Jung: Maybe...!
Unke paas khadi huwi Caroline aur Becky dono he khamoshi se khadi unko daikh rahi thi. Aarav aur Yoo-Jung ker to ek dusre ke saath mazak he rahe the. Lekin Caroline ko dikh raha tha ke wo karna kya chah rahe hai.
Aarav aur Yoo-Jung dono he jokes ker ke ek dusre ki anxiety ko control karne ki poori koshish ker rahe the. Abhi bhi un dono ko sab kuch yanhi per chhod ker jana sahi nahi lag raha tha. Lekin unke paas aur koi raasta bhi nahi tha.
*Click*
*Groaning*
Abhi un dono ki baate chal he rahi thi ke kamre ka darwaza khula aur Kunle andar aa gaya. Lekin uske chehre ke painful expressions ko daikh ker udhar sab he chaunk gaye aur uske paas chale gaye.
Aarav: Kunle!? Yanha baitho...!
Aarav ne Kunle ko udhar he rakhe couch per baitha diya. Yoo-Jung ne darwaze ko band ker diya. Kunle ne ye kamra private meetings ke liye guild mein he banaya huwa tha.
Yanha kisi bhi tarha ka camera nahi tha aur na he koi ata tha. Yanha per ate huwe Kunle ne apne secretary ko bhi saath ane se rok diya tha.
Aarav: Kunle, Kya ho raha hai?
Aarav ne Kunle ki shareer ko aise he examine karte huwe kaha aur uske sleeve ko utha diya. Aarav ko uske Arm per nishaan dikh gaye aur udhar sab he uski halat daikha pareshan ho gaye.
Aarav (Sigh): Marked Curse...!
Aarav ne Kunle ki veins ko daikh ker usse pucha to usne haan mein sar hila diya. Uske haath mein he C.O.D ka invitation card tha. Lekin ye card normal invitation card nahi tha.
Ek marked invitation normal invitation se alag hota tha. C.O.D ke normal invitation mein player ke paas participate na karne ki choice hoti thi. Lekin Kunle ka invitation marked invitation tha.
Kunle ke paas participate na karne ki choice he nahi thi. Uske invitation ko kholte he wo mark ho gaya tha. Ab agar wo participate nahi kare ga to curse usko maarne wala tha.
Aarav: How bad’s the curse pain? Like, on a scale from one to te-
Kunle (Groaning): Ughh, Ten... Definitely ten! Maybe worse.
Aarav (Exhale): [Tinkerbell]
Tinkerbell: *Nod*
Aarav ne Tinkerbell ki taraf daikha to usko samajh aa gayi ke Aarav kya keh raha hai. Tinkerbell Kunle ke haath ke paas aa gayi aur uske curse ko remove karne ki koshish karne lagi.
Kunle (Relief): Huhhhh...!
Tinkerbell (Struggling): [I can't, Ye curse sirf aur sirf iski condition ke poore hone per he remove ho ga! Lekin abhi ke liye curse ka pain reduce ker diya hai]
Aarav: [Thank You.]
Aarav: Ab kaisa feel ho raha hai?
Kunle: Six...!
Aarav (Smile): Better bhi keh sakte the...!
Aarav ki baat sun ker sabhi ka mood thoda sa sahi huwa aur Aarav bhi udhar he baith gaya. Kunle abhi bhi kuch pain mein tha. Lekin ye pain to uske liye manageable tha.
Sab ne Kunle ko bhi saans lene ka time de diya aur khamoshi se baithe rahe. Unke paas ab kuch he time baaki tha. C.O.D shuru he hone wali thi.
Aarav: Yoo-Jung, Ye Limiter laga lo...!
Aarav ne ek bracelet Yoo-Jung ki taraf ker diya aur Yoo-Jung ne uske haath se bracelet pakad liya.
Yoo-Jung: Limiter?
Aarav (Nod): Haan, Ye tumhare stats below 100 he rakhe ga! Hum ne agar 100+ stats ka use C.O.D mein kiya to hamare disguise ke saath bhi hum pakde jaye gye.
Yoo-Jung: Hmm, Ye permanent hai?
Aarav: Nahi, Ye Limiter sirf stats 100+ hone se pehle tumhe bataye ga! Lekin agar tum uske baad bhi utni strength ya aur stats ko Use karna chaho to ker sakti ho. Lekin karne ke baare mein sochna bhi nahi.
Yoo-Jung: Okay...!
Caroline: [Aur hum C.O.D mein sabhi important discussions aise telepathy se he kare gye! Main ne hum sab ke beech ek temporary telepathy connection bana diya hai]
Caroline ne telepathy ka Use karte huwe sab se keh diya. Aarav ke sivaye baaki sab ke liye ye thoda weird tha. Lekin ye manageable tha.
Kunle (Breath): Fuuuu ~ Ab team bana lete hai!?
Yoo-Jung (Nod): Yes...!
Kunle ne invitation ko utha ker udhar he table per rakh diya aur sab uske paas aa gaye. Becky ne bhi ek dagger table per rakh diya. Unhe team banane ke liye unke blood ko invitation per lagana hota tha.
*Slash*
Yoo-Jung ne sab se pehle uski ungali per ek chota sa cut banaya aur invitation card per ek drop ko gira diya.
[Participant Name?]
Yoo-Jung: Luna ~
Unhe unka apna naam dene ki zaroorat nahi thi wo ek Alias name bhi Use ker sakte the. Yoo-Jung ke baad Aarav ne bhi dagger ko uthaya aur usne bhi Yoo-Jung ki tarha he ungali per ek cut laga ker blood ki drop ko card per gira di.
[Participant Name?]
Aarav: Corpse ~
Uske baad Kunle, Becky aur Caroline ne bhi waisa he blood card per lagaya aur teeno ne apna apna alias name bata diya.
Kunle: Protector ~
Becky: Iron Wall ~
Caroline: Vengeance ~

Ek suit pehne huwe ek aankh wale vyakti ne uske saamne andhere mein baithe kisi se kaha aur uske javab ka intezar karne laga.
Unke aas-paas har taraf sirf andhera he andhera tha. Na he kisi taraf koi deewar aur ne he upar koi bhi chhat thi. Unke saamne ek saath bohat system window ke pannel khule huwe the.

Michael uske desk ke peeche rakhi chair per baitha huwa tha. Usne apne haatho se apne sar ko pakada huwa tha. Aj uske saath udhar aur koi bhi nahi tha. Kyu ke uski honhar proxy abhi maut se khelne gayi huwi thi.
*Tick-Tock*
Michael ne wrist watch ko utaar ker table per rakha huwa tha aur uski nazar ghadi ki suiyon per he ruki huwi thi. Usne Becky aur Aarav ko Caroline ke saath bheja to tha. Lekin phir bhi usko ghabrahat ho rahi thi.
*Woooosh*
Michael: Huh!?
Abhi Michael uski socho mein khoya he huwa tha ke uske saamne ek system window khul gayi aur uske upar like naam ko padh ker wo seedha ho ker baith gaya.
[C.O.D]
Michael ne bhi C.O.D ko daikhne ke liye pay kiya tha. Lekin usne kisi maze ke liye nahi sirf khud ki ghabrahat ko kam karne ke liye pay kiya tha.
Michael (Exhale): Fuuuu ~ Becareful everyone...!

“Ye hum kanha aa gaye?”
Becky ne uske aas-paas daikhte huwe sab se saval kiya. Abhi wo kisi cube mein band the.
*Thump*
Becky ne uske macr se cube ko todne ki koshish ki lekin cube tootna to bohat dur ki baat thi usko ek kharonch tak nahi ayi.
Caroline: Yanha bina soche kuch bhi karna sahi nahi ho ga! Iron wall, Abhi ke liye kuch bhi karne ki zaroorat nahi hai.
Aarav aur Yoo-Jung to pehle se he shaant khade huwe the. Caroline ki baat sun ker Becky aur Kunle bhi shaant ho gaye.
“Very Good...!”
Unke saamne he Cube ke beech se chalte huwe koi andar aa gaya. Ek saath sabhi alert ho gaye aur unke fighting stance le ker khade ho gaye. Unke saamne khada vyakti koi sadharan insaan nahi tha ye to unhe pata lag raha tha.
Uski ek demonic aankh ko daikh ker sirf Aarav aur Yoo-Jung he ab tak shaant khade the. Baaki teeno to ladne ke liye taiyar the.
One Eyed (Smile): Main hu Malphas! Dungeon ka Guide, Ap sab ko ye chehara baar baar dikhayi de ga to uske liye khud ko taiyar ker lo *Grin* Ya phir shuruaat mein he mar sakte ho.
Aarav: Corpse...!
Malphas (Grin): Brave Warrior!? Kekekeke...! Ab ki baar shayad aur bhi maza ane wala hai *Slurp*
Malphas ne uske honto per uski rakshasi jeeb ko firate huwe kaha aur hansne laga.
*Snap*
Malphas ne chutki bajayi to unke saamne ek dice aa gaya. Usne Dice ko unki taraf ker diya aur sab usko daikhne lage.
Malphas: Kekekeke, roll the dice! Let's see if luck’s on your side.
Malphas ki baat sun ker Kunle aage aa gaya. Usne ek baar sab ki taraf daikha aur neeche se dice ko utha liya. Malphas muskurate huwe uski taraf he daikh raha tha. Kunle ke haath kaanp rahe the.
Usne ek gehra saans liya aur dice ko neeche phenk diya.
*Tuck*

*Rolling*
*Stop*

Malphas: Oof... doesn’t seem like luck's with you today *Grin* Difficulty: hard.
Kunle (Stunned): H-Hard?
Malphas (Grin): Yes... Yes... Yes...! You won’t leave this cube until at least 100 teams make it to the first stage. And when you finally enter the dungeon, you’ll start 10 floors behind them. Kekekeke.
Kunle: Nahi, Ek aur baar try karta hu n-
Malphas (Smirk): Bye Bye ~
Malphas unko haath hilate huwe bye keh ker udhar se nikal gaya. Kunle ab uski kismat ko kaus raha tha. Kyu ke uske kaaran he Aarav yanha aya tha aur uske kaaran ab unhe hard difficulty mil gayi thi.
Kunle: I'm sorr-
Aarav: Don't...!
Kunle: Huh?
Kunle ne peeche daikha to Aarav usko he daikh raha tha.
Aarav: Kya sach mein tumhe lagta hai ke ye luck ki game thi? Malphas tumhe manipulate karne ki koshish ker raha tha aur tum usko karne de rahe ho?
Yoo-Jung (Nod): Corpse sahi keh raha hai! I'm sure ke usne numbers ke saath kuch to kiya he ho ga to tumhe khud ko kausne ki zaroorat nahi hai.
Unki baat sun ker Kunle ko bhi uski galti ka ehsaas ho gaya aur usko ab khushi bhi huwi ke sab uske liye nahi uske saath khade huwe the.

“Unghhhh ~ Unghhhh”
AkaiShiro Corporation ka CEO uske office ke floor per he bandha gira huwa tha. Uske haath aur paun dono rassiyon se baandhe huwe the aur uske muh mein kapda de ker tape se lapaita huwa tha.
“Ab tak wo sab kyu nahi dikhayi diye?”
CEO ke paas he desk ke saath Aakash, Tsubame aur Daisuke khade huwe the. AkaiShiro ke CEO ne bhi C.O.D ki stream ke liye pay kiya tha. Aakash ya Daisuke stream ke liye direct pay nahi ker sakte the.
Aakash ne unhe AkaiShiro Corporation ke CEO ke baare mein bataya to sab uski system window se daikhne ke liye aa gaye. C.O.D ki shuruaat ho gayi thi. Lekin ab tak unhe kanhi bhi Aarav aur Yoo-Jung dikhayi nahi de rahe the.
Aakash: Participant ke ane ki timing alag alag hoti hai! Unhe ane mein time lag sakta hai. Abhi hamay first stage check karni chahiye hai.
C.O.D ki stages har baar different hoti thi to Aakash ko bhi nahi pata tha ke ab ki baar stages kya thi.
Tsubame (Nod): Right ~
Aakash ki baat sun ker Tsubame ne bhi haan mein sar hila diya. Uski permission milte he Aakash ne screen switch ker di aur first stage per chala gaya aur teeno first stage daikhne lage.
Lekin first stage ko daikhte huwe he unki aankhe hairani aur khauf se khulti gayi. Daisuke ne uske baare mein sun rakha tha. Lekin Tsubame ye pehli baar daikh rahi thi aur usko ab pata lag raha tha ke uska naam Carnival of Death kyu tha.
Tsubame ke haath kaanpne shuru ho gaye. Usko ab Aarav aur Yoo-Jung ke liye dar lagne laga tha.
Tsubame: Aakash...Aarav stage clear ker le ga na?
Tsubame ne uske saath khade Aakash ki taraf daikhte huwe usse saval kiya. Aarav ko sab se achhi tarha se wo he samjhta tha aur usko he Aarav per sab se zyada vishwas bhi tha.
Aakash (Nod): Yes ...!
Aakash ne uski taraf muskurate huwe daikha aur haan mein sar hila diya. Uske vishwas ko daikh Tsubame bhi muskurane lagi. Lekin andar he andar wo Aarav aur Yoo-Jung ke liye pray ker rahi thi.

Unhone baahir aa ker daikha to wo kisi cave ke andar the. Unke saamne raasta seedha he tha aur peeche Cube tha.
Yoo-Jung: Ye hai Dungeon?

Un sab ke saamne ek notification aa gaya. Unhe ab 10 floor neeche jana tha raaste mein aa rahe sab monsters ko maarte huwe. Ye sirf first stage tak pohanchne ke liye tha.
Aarav: Let's do it...!
Aarav uski sword ko sheath se nikalte huwe aage badhne laga. Uske saath Kunle uski shield utha ker chalne laga aur dusri taraf Becky uska mace pakad ker khadi ho gayi. Caroline middle mein thi aur sab se peeche Bow and arrow le ker Yoo-Jung unko back se support ker rahi thi.

Meera abhi kitchen mein khana he bana rahi thi ke kisi ne door bell baja di. Meera ne gas kam ki aur khud darwaze per chali gayi. Ek baar darwaze per pohanch ker Meera udhar khadi ho ker baahir kon hai ye sense karne ki koshish karne lagi.
*Click*
Ek minute ke baad Meera ne darwaza khol diya aur baahir khade vyakti ko andar ane diya. Uske andar ate he usne darwaza band ker diya.
Meera: Aarav ne bheja hai kya?
“Ap ko kaise pata? Hum to kabhi pehle mile bhi nahi hai”
Meera (Smile): Aarav se tumhare baare mein suna tha! Ab itna dark aura aur kiska he ho ga, Barbie?
Meera ke saamne khada Vyakti Barbie he tha. Usko andar ane ka keh ker Meera khud bhi andar chale gayi.
Barbie: Young master ne ek baar area check karne ke liye bheja hai! Ab tak yanha per kisi bhi tarha ka suspecious insaan nahi aya hai.
Meera: Uska dar sahi hai! Lekin main pehle se he har taraf nazar rakhe huwe hu. 3 din se tumhare yanha hone ka ehsaas ho gaya tha *Smile*
Uski baat sun ker Barbie hairan ho gaya. Usne khud ko chhupane ki puri koshish ki thi. Lekin Meera ne uske baad bhi usko sense ker liya tha.
Barbie: Derek kaisa hai?
Meera: Good, Abhi training he ker raha hai...!
Barbie: Kya Derek mist core develop ker saka?
Meera (Sigh): Nahi, Lagta hai 3 core ab uski limit thi! Ye bhi choti achievement nahi hai. Lekin Aarav aur usmein bohat difference hai.
Barbie: Hmm ~ Darkness Core ke samay bhi ye he huwa tha! Lagta hai sirf Young master he multiple cores ko handle ker sakta hai...Lekin kaise?
Meera: Believe me, Main bhi ye he pata karne ki kab se koshish ker rahi thi! Lekin Aarav ko bhi nahi pata hai ke ye kaise huwa hai.
Barbie: Hmm ~
Meera: Aakash ka kya? Uski progress kya hai?
Barbie: I don't know, Master ki body sab cores ko reject ker rahi hai! Unhone koshish bhi ki hai. Lekin ek bhi core unke liye suitable nahi hai.
Meera (Smile): Lagta hai dono bhai ek dusre se alag hai! Ek sab cores ko develope ker raha hai aur dusra sab ko reject ker raha hai....Huh, Lekin sab ko unka raasta mil he jata hai.

Aarav aur uski team ko 10th floor se first floor per ane ke liye 3 ghante lag gye the. Uska poora armor khoon se latpat tha aur uski iron sword per ladayi ke nishan ban gaye the. Aarav ne uski ye halat intentionally ki thi ke uske upar kisi ko bhi shak na ho ke uske liye ye easy tha.
Kunle (Panting): Huh... Huh... Huh, Finally! Hum aa he gaye.
Kunle aur Becky ke liye ye mushkil tha. Kyu ke ab tak wo dono sirf A ranked player the aur Aarav ki Limits ke baad bhi uske saath ladna unke liye mushkil tha. Aarav ne Yoo-Jung ko ab aage badhne diya.
Yoo-Jung aage badh ker first floor ke end per bani sidhiyon se neeche utarne lagi. Yoo-Jung ne uske bow ko uthaya huwa tha aur dhayan se aage badh rahi thi.
*Chatter*
Yoo-Jung neeche ayi to uske saamne ek lobby bani huwi thi. Udhar unke saath aur bhi players khade huwe the aur sab unki unki teams ke saath khade huwe the.
Yoo-Jung ke saath he ab baaki sab bhi neeche aa gaye. Ye ek tarha se next stage ke liye waiting room tha. Aarav ne aise he uske aas-paas daikha to uske paas sainkadon log khade huwe the.
Aarav aur uski team bhi udhar ek taraf khade ho gaye aur situation observe karne lage. Abhi bhi aur players aa rahe the.
“Finally sab aa he gaye”
Ek taraf se dobara Malphas nikal aya. Usko daikh ker Kunle ko ek baar dobara uski harkat per gussa ane laga. Lekin Aarav ne usko shaant rehne ka keh diya.
Malphas: Ab sab aa he gaye hai to game shuru karte hai! Truth or Truth...! Kekekeke.
*Shaking*
Malphas ke kehte he lobby poori shake honi shuru ho gayi aur unke paas ki deeware toot ker girne lagi aur neeche se floor bhi tootne laga. Sab teams ke neeche ka thoda floor chhod ker unke aas-paas ka poora floor toot gaya.
“Hey.. Hey... Hey...!”
Malphas: Kekekeke, Ab tum sab ke saamne hai sab se pehla game master...!
Malphas kehte huwe udhar se gayab ho gaya. Aarav ne uske saamne daikha to uske saamne he hava mein ek vyakti float ker raha tha. Usne kisi ring master ki tarha ke kapre pehan rakhe the aur uske honton per ek muskan saji huwi thi.

“Kaisi Game?”
Game Master Aarav ke uske kareeb ane per he ab tak hairan tha. Lekin uske attitude ko daikh ker aur uski baat sun ker ab wo aur bhi hairan tha.
Usko ye samajh nahi aa rahi thi ke stage clear hone ke baad bhi Aarav aage badhne ki jagha situation ko khud ke liye aur difficult kyu bana raha tha.
Aarav (Nod): Yes, Let's play a game...!
Caroline: Corp-
Aarav ko game master ko challenge karte daikh ker Caroline bhi chaunk gayi. Unka aisa kisi bhi tarha ka plan nahi tha. Lekin Caroline ke beech mein ane se pehle he Yoo-Jung ne usko rok diya.
Caroline ne Yoo-Jung ki taraf daikha to usne usko shaant khadi rehne ka ishara ker diya. Yoo-Jung ko bhi kuch idea nahi tha. Lekin wo abhi situation ko observe karna chah rahi thi.
“Kekekeke, Interesting...!”
*Tuck*
Abhi sab Aarav ko ker daikh rahe the ke hava mein he kanhi se Malphas baahir aa gaya. Malphas ko udhar daikh ker ek pal ke liye Game Master bhi chaunk gaya.
Lekin Aarav ke uss arrogant behavior ke baad bhi Malphas ke expressions se lag nahi raha tha ke usko Aarav ki baat ka bura laga hai.
Game Master: Malphas?
Malphas (Grin): Laga he tha ke tum dusron se kuch to alag ho gye! Kekekeke, Lekin kya ye bahaduri hai ya bewakoofi?
Malphas ne game master ko bilkul he ignore ker diya aur Aarav ki taraf muskurate huwe honton per zuban fairate huwe daikhne laga. Uske chehre per ek lalsa dikhayi de rahi thi.
Aarav (Smug): Ab ye to game khelne ke baad he pata lage ga...!
Aarav ki baat sun ker Malphas aur bhi muskurane laga. Ab tak Aarav Malphas ke gaslight karne per kuch nahi keh raha tha. Lekin ab jaise usne unke saath he khelne ka nirnay le liya tha.
Malphas (Laugh): Kekeke...!
****
“Corpse!?”
Dungeon Master uski kursi per baithe huwe Aarav ko he daikh raha tha. Aarav ki harkat ne uska bhi dhayan khud ki taraf ker liya tha. Dungeon Master ke paas baitha vyakti Aarav ki team ki Information daikhne laga.
Vyakti (Reading): Corpse, Ye Kunle ki team mein hai! Kunle ko marked invitation se bulaya gaya hai. Anthony Delacroix paid five billion dollars to ensure he’d join the Carnival.
Dungeon Master: Five billion dollars, just to settle a grudge?
Vyakti (Nod): Yes, Anthony is the CEO of Sentinel Global Security, an international private security firm! Lekin Kunle ke protector guild banane ke baad se sab players ko he personal security ke liye hire ker rahe hai aur uske liye dugani keemat dene ko bhi taiyar hai. Anthony lost lucrative government contracts and corporate deals to Kunle’s guild.
Dungeon Master: Personal Security ke liye players?
Vyakti ki baat sun ker Dungeon Master ab Kunle ki taraf aur dilchaspi lene laga. Players Association aur guilds ki shuruaat huwe abhi 12 saal ke paas he huwe the.
Lekin ab tak sab players sirf gates ko clear karne per he dhayan dete the. Lekin aise mein Kunle ne ek security Guild bana li thi. Ye sun ker Dungeon Master bhi Kunle ki taraf dilchaspi se daikhne laga tha.
Vyakti (Nod): Haan, Kunle khud to sirf ek A rank Player he hai! Lekin uski guild ki ab tak 7 branches ban gayi hai aur uske under abhi 70K+ Players kaam ker rahe hai aur uske paas 1267 B-Rankers 768 A-Rankers 134 early stage S-rankers ke saath 7 Tutorial tower ke S-Rankers hai.
Dungeon Master: Hmm ~ Lekin ye Corpse kon hai?
Vyakti (Reading): Usne khud ki kisi bhi tarha ki personal information nahi di hai! Lekin probably wo Kunle ko marked invitation dene ka badla le raha ho ga.
Dungeon Master (Smug): Interesting, Lekin hamare paas uske challenge ko accept karne ka koi bhi reason nahi hai...!
Dungeon Master ne kursi per he seedhe baith ker muskurate huwe kaha.
Vyakti (Gasped): Huh?
Dungeon Master: What?
Vyakti (Gulp): Deathwatchers ne Corpse ko support karna shuru ker diya hai...!
Dungeon Master: What?

Dungeon ~ Spectators' Room
“Let's play a game”
“Woaaahhhh”
Spectators' Room ke andar Aarav ke challenge ko sun ker sabhi excited ho gaye. Unke beech mein se kuch ko Aarav ke arrogant behavior ko daikh ker gussa aa raha tha to kuch uske stage ko aur bhi zyada interesting banane per khush ho rahe the.
Kenneth (Deathwatcher): Ye behanchod, Who does he think he is? challenging the Game Master like that? Lagta hai yanha usko apni aukat ke baare mein ab tak pata nahi laga hai.
Kenneth ne ek he ghont mein drink ko khatam karte huwe kaha. Aarav ki harakat ko daikh ker usko ab aur bhi gussa aa raha tha. Ek Player ko aise aakar dikhate daikh usko jalan ho rahi thi.
Herbert (Deathwatcher): Hmm ~
Kenneth: Ab tumhe kya ho gaya?
Herbert ko soch mein dooba daikh ker Kenneth bhi hairan ho gaya. Kyu ke ab tak usne Herbert ko kisi bhi player ki death per ya stage clear karne mein intrest lete nahi daikha tha.
Herbert: I don't know, Lekin main daikhna chahata hu ke ye kya challenge de raha hai!?
Kenneth (Annoyed): Lekin aisa kyu? Hum kya uske orders ko follow karne ke liye paise de rahe hai aur yanha per aye hai? Ab kya wo games ko control kare ga?
Herbert (Smirk): Isn’t that why we’re here? To watch fools like him flirt with death? Kya farak padta hai ke wo Player ho ya game master khud he kyu na ho. Ab dono ko he tadapte daikhne ka utna he maza aye ga. But.... The audacity... it’s delicious. I’m almost rooting for him.
Kenneth ne uski aankhon mein daikha to Herbert ki aankhon mein khoon he utar aya tha. Uske hont ab excitement se kaanp rahe the. Herbert ek God ki tarha shikari ko shikar bante daikh raha tha.
“True pleasure is found when the predator becomes the prey, and the tables turn on those who once ruled with fear”
[#4 Deathwatcher paid 1 billion dollars to back Corpse’s challenge against the Game Master]
Ek notification badi screen per aya to sab ki nazar ek saath #4 Deathwatcher ki seat per chale gayi. Ek he pal mein kamre ki hava aur bhi bhaadi ho gayi thi aur tanav ka mahaul ban gaya tha.
Kenneth (Staring): Big Billy...!
#4 Deathwatcher Big Billy tha aur uski ungali green button ke upar thi. Big Billy dusron ki tarha wealthy family se nahi tha.
Big Billy ek aisa insaan tha jisne kuch he samay ke andar khud ka empire khada ker diya tha aur bohat se logo ka dhandha band karwa diya tha.
Un sab ke mann mein Billy ke liye bhi kisi player se kam nafrat nahi thi. Big Billy ne halka head tilt karte huwe aankhon ke kone se sab ki taraf daikha aur halki muskurahat ke saath muskurane laga.
Big Billy ki Side Eye sab ko mock ker rahi thi. Uske expressions udhar baithe sab Deathwatchers ko trigger ker rahe the. Big Billy unhe dikha raha tha ke uske liye players ke saath wo sab bhi keede makodon ki tarha he the.
*Click*
[#3 Deathwatcher paid 1.1 billion dollars to back Corpse’s challenge against the Game Master]
Big Billy ke paas baithe huwe ek aur Deathwatcher ne challenge ko support ker diya. Ek Deathwatcher har stage per sirf ek baar he support ker sakta tha to Big Billy stage 1 per aur support nahi ker sakta tha.
Lekin #3 ke Action se udhar aur bhi logon ke andar aag jalne lagi. Unke beech ab ek yuddh shuru ho chuka tha. Ab baat sab ke ego per aa gayi thi aur ab shaant rehna unke liye haar ka sanket ke barabar tha.

Malphas (Chuckle): Kekekeke, Fascinating...! Lagta hai kismat bhi tumhare saath he hai. Lekin kab tak ke liye? Kekekeke, Ab Socho... Aage badhna hai ya bheegi billi ban ker bhaagna hai?
Aarav ke game master ko diye challenge ko C.O.D ne accept ker liya tha. Lekin unke saath aur bhi bohat conditions thi. Aarav ke liye ye challenge har taraf se disadvantage per tha.
Usko na to kuch bhi challenge se mil raha tha aur usko challenge ke beech game master ko aur bhi advantage dene per rahe the. Ye kisi ke liye bhi ek maut se kam nahi thi.
Game Master (Smug): Kya huwa, Hava nikal gayi kya?
Game Master ne Aarav ki taraf chehre per ek vijayi muskurahat sajaye huwe kaha. Malphas bhi Aarav ki khamoshi ko daikh ker disappoint hone laga.
Aarav (Smug): Let's Play...!
Malphas: Huh...Sachi!? Sab kuch pata hone ke baad bhi?
Aarav (Nod): Haan, Sab kuch pata hone ke baad bhi...! *Smirk*

Takahashi's Residence
Wind Clan ~ 4 Days Ago...!
*Sigh*
Aarav Daisuke ki ghar ki chhat per baitha chand ki taraf daikh raha tha aur socho mein gum tha. Unke C.O.D mein jaane ke liye ab kuch he din baaki the aur Aarav abhi bhi sure nahi tha.
“Aarav”
Aarav ko bulate huwe Aakash aur Yoo-Jung dono upar aa gaye. Aarav ne he unhe udhar bina kisi ko bhi bataye ane ke liye kaha tha. Aarav ne ek baar confirm kiya ke udhar unke sivaye koi aur to nahi hai.
Lekin kisi ki bhi presence ke feel na hone per Aarav ne Tinkerbell ko ek sound barrier banane ke liye keh diya. Sound barrier se unki awaaz baahir kisi ko bhi sunayi nahi deni thi.
Yoo-Jung: Aarav, Yanha hamay akele kyu bulaya hai?
Aarav: Yanha hum C.O.D ke baare mein kuch baate karne wale hai! C.O.D se kisi aur ka connection nahi hai to unhe bulana sahi nahi ho ga. Unke paas unke apne task bhi hai karne ke liye.
Aarav ne unki C.O.D ke related ab tak huwi sabhi meetings se andaza laga liya tha ke har meeting ke saath sab unke liye aur dar he rahe the aur wo kisi bhi tarha se unki help nahi ker sakte the.
Aarav: Tinkerbell...!
Tinkerbell: [Huh, Kya huwa? Aur ye tum sab ke saamne kyu bula rahe ho?]
Aarav: Yoo-Jung aur Aakash ke saamne kabhi na kabhi tumhe ana he ho ga! Unse chhupane se kuch bhi nahi ho ga.
Tinkerbell (Annoyed): [Ughhh, Fine...!]
Aarav ke kehne per Tinkerbell bhi unke saamne ane ke liye taiyar ho gayi. Aarav ne bhi usko time dete huwe transform hone diya.
Tinkerbell: Fuuuu ~
Aakash aur Yoo-Jung ke saamne Tinkerbell ab ek human form mein khadi huwi thi. Ek pal ke liye usko daikh ker dono hairan reh gaye. Lekin unki hairani ka kaaran Tinkerbell ki khubsurati thi. Unke saamne jaise ek angel he khadi huwi thi.
Tinkerbell ne ab tak ye form sirf ek baar li thi Aarav ko bachane ke liye. Lekin tab ki situation aur ab ko situation alag thi. Lekin phir bhi Aarav ke kehne per usko calm hona per gaya.
Aakash aur Yoo-Jung bhi dono kuch he palon mein normal ho gaye. Aarav ne un sab ke beech ki uss Nervousness ke khatam hone ka intezar kiya aur uske baad dobara baat karni shuru ker di.
Aarav: Tinkerbell ko lagta hai ke shayad uske paas bhi C.O.D ki kuch Information hai! Abhi tak wo sure nahi hai. Lekin phir bhi ye information worth listening ho sakti hai.
Aarav ki baat sun ker un dono ko bhi pata lag gaya ke Aarav ne unhe kyu bulaya hai. Yoo-Jung Aarav ke saath ja rahi thi usko sab kuch pata hona bohat he zaroori tha.
Aakash ke paas C.O.D ki Association se bhi zyada information thi. Aarav usko sunana chah raha tha ke aise unhe kuch raasta dikh sakta tha. Ab sab he Tinkerbell ki taraf daikh rahe the.
Tinkerbell (Relaxed): Fuuuu ~ Main utni sure to nahi hu! Lekin shayad C.O.D ke baare mein main ne pehle bhi suna hai. Ab tak ki sab information ko sun ker mujhe lagta hai ke aisa kuch dusre worlds mein bhi ho chuka hai.
Yoo-Jung: C.O.D?
Tinkerbell (Nod): Uska naam ye nahi tha! Lekin tab bhi 4 stages ki ek dungeon thi aur uska Dungeon Master tha ek wizard king aur ye games Dungeon ko sacrifice dene ke liye aur wizard king ki power ko badhane ke liye hoti thi.
Yoo-Jung: Lekin ye dono alag bhi to ho sakti hai na?
Tinkerbell (Nod): Haan, Ye he reason hai ke main ab tak sure nahi hu! Lekin mujhe kuch aur khaas information mil sakti to main confirm ker sakti thi.
Aakash:... Deathwatchers?
Aakash ne kuch sochne ke baad kaha to Tinkerbell ka dhayan fauran uski taraf chale gaya. Aakash ne uska reaction daikha to wo muskurane laga.
Tinkerbell: Deathwatchers... *Nod* Haan, Ye wizard king ki dungeon mein bhi the...!
Tinkerbell ne kehte huwe ek book ko inventory se nikal liya aur uska ek page khol ker sab ko dikhane lagi.
[Who are Deathwatchers?]
[Deathwatchers are people who take pleasure in watching death and suffering. To become a Deathwatcher, they must give offerings to the Dungeon Master and try to win his favor. Those who manage to satisfy him earn a Deathwatcher seat, granting them some authority within the Dungeon]
Aakash ki baat aur Tinkerbell ki explanation ko sun ker sab aur bhi sure ho gaye the. Lekin ab sab ka dhayan Tinkerbell se Aakash ki taraf ho gaya tha.
Aakash (Smile): Bingo... Yanha C.O.D ke andar bhi Deathwatchers hai! Unke liye bhi aisi he condition thi. Ek bhaadi keemat dene ke baad unhe bhi dungeon ke andar Deathwatcher ki seath mili hai.
Yoo-Jung: Hmm ~ Agar hum kisi Deathwatcher ko hamari side per ker sake to hum C.O.D ke andar se bhi game ko manipulate ker sakte hai! Lekin hum ye kare gaye kaise? Kyu ke Deathwatcher per unki nazar ho gi he ho gi.
Yoo-Jung ka idea sahi tha. Lekin uska concern bhi sahi tha. Kyu ke Deathwatcher ke liye unhe kisi trusted insaan ki zaroorat thi.
Lekin Aarav abhi bhi shaanti se Aakash ko daikh raha tha. Yoo-Jung aur Tinkerbell bhi unhe daikh ker confuse ho rahi thi.
Aarav (Smile): Huh, Already tum ne Deathwatchers ko andar bheja huwa hai?
Aakash (Nod): Yes...!
Unki baat sun ker Yoo-Jung aur Tinkerbell dono he chauk gayi. Aarav ne ye guess to ker liya tha. Lekin guess karne ke baad bhi ye baat uske liye hairan ker dene wali thi.
Aarav: Lekin kaise?
Aakash kitne samay se bedridden tha ye Aarav ko bhi pata tha. Lekin uske baad bhi Aakash ne uska ek spy Deathwatcher bana diya tha. Ye baat Aarav ko bhi samajh nahi aa rahi thi.
Aakash: Kya tumhe sach mein lagta tha ke Sayani enterprise he mera sab kuch tha? Haan, Sayani ke liye unka business sab kuch tha. Lekin mere liye utna kaafi nahi tha.
Aarav: Aur Vansh ki barbadi?
Aakash (Smirk): Sab ko lagta hai ke Vansh ne sab kuch kho diya! Lekin uske peeche hamesha se he main tha. Vansh ko to main ne tumhare liye kuch bhi nahi kiya. Lekin main usko tadpaye bina kaise reh sakta tha?
Aarav: Huh?
Aakash (Smile): I stayed in the shadows, pulling the strings, making my puppets dance! I’m the one who ruined Vansh and took everything from him.
Aarav ne Vansh ki memories mein daikha tha ke usne sab kuch dheeme dheeme loss mein kho diya tha. Lekin ab ye sense bana rahi thi ke un sab ke peeche Aakash he tha.
Aakash khud saamne na ho ker bhi uske puppets se sab kuch control ker raha tha. Uske paas kuch na bhi ho ker sab kuch tha. He was the kind of man who can flip an entire country upside down on his own.
Ye pehli baar he tha ke Aarav khud ko lucky maan raha tha ke Aakash uske saath tha uske khilaf nahi tha. Aakash ke paas aur kya kuch tha uska Aarav ko bhi andaza nahi tha.
Aarav: Lekin kya guarantee hai ke wo trust karne ke layak hai? Ye bhi to ho sakta hai na ke wo dhokha de de?
Aarav kisi per bhi bharosa nahi ker sakta tha. Usne ek baar ker ke daikh liya tha. Lekin trustworthy log bhi majboori mein dhokha de he dete the.
Aakash (Smile): Trust him? You’re looking at this all wrong.
Aarav what?
Aakash: Dhokha dena to bohat dur ki baat hai! Even the thought would send him into a cold sweat.
Tinkerbell (Stunned): Kaise?
Aakash (Sigh): Huh... You see, I’m not the kind of man people cross! When I say I hold someone’s life in my hands, I mean it literally.
Aarav ya Yoo-Jung ye puchna bhi nahi chahte the ke Aakash ye kaise kare ga. Unhe ab tak andaza ho gaya tha ke Aakash ke paas uske khud ke raaste the uski kathputaliyon ko control karne ke.
Aarav: Aur tum Deathwatchers ke baare mein kab batane wale the?
Ye saval udhar sab ke mann mein tha. Aakash ke paas aisa trump card tha to usne ab tak unhe uske baare mein bataya kyu nahi tha?
Aakash (Smile): Main wait ker raha tha ke tum kab yanha tak figure out karte ho! Uske baad he main sab kuch batane wala tha.
Aarav: Aur agar main na ker sakta to?
Aakash: Ek to mujhe tum per poori tarha vishwas tha! Lekin uske baad bhi tum na ker sakte to main tumhe kisi halat mein bhi C.O.D mein participate na karne deta.
Aakash ke chehre ke bhav ek pal ke liye serious ho gaye. Un teeno ko mehsoos ho raha tha ke Aakash kitna serious tha. Unhe ab ye samajh aa rahi thi ke Aakash ka khauf sab ke raungte kyu khade ker deta tha.
Aarav: Lekin Kunle ka kya? Usko tum kaise bachane wale the?
Aarav ne Aakash se pucha bhi nahi ke wo usko kaise rokne wala tha. Usne seedhe aage ke baare mein pucha.
Aakash (Sigh): I only care about my people! The rest of the world can burn for all I care.

Carnival of Death
Dungeon ~ Stage 1 Floor 1
Malphas: Kekeke, Ab Konsi game ke liye challenge ker rahe ho tum?
Malphas ne uske honto per uski rakshasi jeeb ko firate huwe kaha aur hansne laga. Aarav ke diye gaye challenge ko accept ker liya gaya tha. Lekin ab usko batana tha ke wo konsi game ke liye challenge karna chahta tha.
Unke kaaran se baaki sab bhi stage 1 per he ruk gaye the. Unke beech se kuch gusse mein the to kuch thankful the ke Aarav ke kaaran unhen kuch aur samay jeene ke liye mil gaya tha.
Aarav ke saamne ek window khul gayi. Aarav ko ab uske andar game ki details add karni thi.
Aarav: Dare and Truth...!
Game Master (Dazed): Truth or Dare?
Game Master aur udhar sab thode hairan ho gaye ke Aarav ek simple truth or dare ke liye challenge ker raha tha. Lekin Aarav uska naam alag tarha se le raha tha.
Aarav: Nah, Dare and Truth...! Hum Dare and Truth khele gaye.
[ENTER]
Aarav ne game ki sab details ko add ker ke game ka challenge Game Master ko bhej diya. Aarav ke chehre ke confidence ko daikh ker Game Master kuch zyada khush nahi lag raha tha.
[Challenge Game Details: Dare and Truth]
[Round 1: Dares]
[The Game Master will start by giving 2 dares to Corpse]
[If Corpse completes both dares, he will give 1 dare to the Game Master]
[Round 2: Truth]
[The Game Master will then ask 2 questions to Corpse]
[If Corpse answers both truthfully, he will ask 1 question to the Game Master, which must be answered truthfully]
[Rules]
[No deadly dares: Dares must not result in death or bring the player close to death.]
[Within the stage: All dares must be doable within the current stage]
[Identity protection: Questions cannot reveal the other person’s identity]
[No C.O.D. questions: Questions related to the Carnival of Death are strictly forbidden]
[Switching roles: The role of Game Master switches during turns]
[Ability use: The person acting as Game Master during their turn can use their ability, but only once per question]
[No harm or attacks: Harm or any form of attack is prohibited at all times]
[Answer Rules]
[Time limit: 15 seconds will be given to answer each question]
[If the Game Master cannot confirm whether the answer is true within that time, it will be considered true]
[Knowledge of the truth: The person answering must know the truth. If they genuinely don’t know the answer, the question will be invalid]
Aarav khud ko disadvantage de raha tha khud ko 2 dares aur 2 questions de ker ab uske liye ye game master se double difficult tha. Lekin Aarav ne uski taraf daikha to Game Master utne se khush nahi tha.
Game Master ke chehre per ek darindgi se bhari huwi muskurahat aa gayi. Usko daikh ker udhar ke sab players he dar gaye.
Game Master: Ek aur condition ho gi! Mujhe diya gaya Dare bhi tumhe mere saath he karna ho ga.
Kunle (Furious): Ye to unfair hai! Ab ye bhi Corpse kare ga to Game Fair kanha rahe gi?
Game Master (Grin): Grow up, kid! Life was always unfair, get used to it!
Game Master ka javab sun ker Kunle ko ab aur bhi gussa ane laga tha. Lekin usne situation ko ab aur complicated karna sahi nahi samjha.
Kunle: Corpse, Ye game fair nahi hai! Mujhe nahi lagta ke tumhe aage badhna chahiye hai.
Tinkerbell: [Master, Kunle theek keh raha hai! Ye game kanhi se bhi hamare favor mein nahi hai aur na he hum kuch ker sakte hai. Mujhe nahi lagta ke ap ko aage badhna chahiye hai]
Aarav: [Dungeon Master ye he chahata hai! Uski ye he koshish hai ke wo mujhe kisi tarha se challenge waapis lene ke liye force ker de *Grin* Lekin mujhe laga tha ke ye kuch aur hard try kare gaye... Ye sab kuch ab bhi mere plan ke according he chal raha hai.]
Aarav ki baat sun ker Tinkerbell aur ghabrane lag gayi thi. Usko bhi pata tha ke sab unfair conditions ke peeche Dungeon Master tha.
Ye challenge agar Dungeon Master ki side se reject hota to Aarav ke challenge ki support offering bhi saath reject honi thi. Lekin agar Aarav he challenge ko waapis le leta to offering Dungeon Master ko tab bhi recieve honi thi.
Aarav (Smug): Accepted...! Now, Let's start.
[New Condition: Any dare Corpse gives to the Game Master, Corpse must also perform alongside him]
Game Master (Stunned): Huh?
Aarav ne uski add ki gayi condition ko bhi accept ker liya aur stage ke beech mein chala gaya. Lekin ye daikh ker Malphas aur bhi muskurane laga aur Game Master sirf uski audacity per hairan tha.
Malphas: Interesting *Slurp*

[$32,606,988,497]
Vyakti (Smile): Master, Ye challenge to hamari soch se bhi zyada kaam ka tha! Lekin kya Victor ko aise challenge accept karwana zaroori tha?
Vyakti uske saamne badhte numbers ko daikh ker khush ho raha tha. Lekin usko Aarav ka confidence dara bhi raha tha. Disadvantage per hone ke baad bhi Aarav back off nahi ker raha tha.
Dungeon Master: He's brave but not reckless! Lekin ab hum kuch ker bhi nahi sakte. Malphas rules ko kabhi bhi tootne nahi de ga... Ab Victor ke haatho mein he uska bhavishya hai.
Game Master uski kursi per peeche lean karte huwe aaram se baith gaya. Uske liye Game Master khaas tha. Lekin vyakti ke saamne badhte numbers ko daikhte huwe usne Game Master ko bhi ignore ker diya.
Vyakti (Smile): Best of luck, Victor...!

Carnival of Death
Dungeon ~ Stage 1 Floor 1
[Game Begin!]
[Round 1: Dares has started]
[The Game Master will now issue the first dare. Failure to comply with the rules will result in immediate death]
Aarav aur Game Master dono stage ke beech mein khade huwe the aur dono ke beech Malphas khada huwa tha. Lekin unke paas khadi Aarav ki team ab bhi uske liye pareshan thi.
Game Master (Grin): Stab your own eye with a dagger...!
[The Game Master has issued the first dare]
[Complete the dare to proceed to the next one]
*Stab*
*Squish*
Game Master (Stunned): Huh?
Game Master ke Dare dete he Aarav ne ek pal ke liye bhi nahi socha aur dagger se apni aankh ko phor diya. Game Master ke saath uski khud ki team bhi hairani se muh khole usko daikh rahi thi.
Aarav: Is that your best? *Scoff* Pathetic...!
Aarav ki phooti huwi aankh se lagatar khoon beh raha tha. Lekin uske baad bhi Aarav ke chehre per dard ka ehsaas bhi dikhayi nahi de raha tha.
Malphas (Excited): Not a twitch, Not even a flinch!? He's face remains cold and focused... Fascinating...!
Game Master bhi Aarav ki craziness daikh ker ab hairan tha. Lekin Aarav ke taunts per ab usko gussa bhi ane laga tha.
[You've been sponsored by a Deathwatcher!]
[Sponsor: Big Billy]
[Dungeon Points: 120]
[Big Billy has taken a special interest in your bravery]
[A powerful ally has chosen you. Use the points wisely]
Aarav ke saamne Deathwatcher ke sponsor karne ka notification aa gaya. Aakash ne usko sponsor ke baare mein bhi bataya tha.
Sponsor karne se Deathwatcher unke sponsor kiye gaye player ko message ker sakte the aur unko Dungeon points bhi de sakte the. $250K ka sirf ek Dungeon point tha to Big Billy ne Aarav ko $30M se sponsor kiya tha.
[Dare Completed]
[Corpse has successfully completed the first dare!]
[The Game Master will now issue the second dare]
Game Master (Sigh): Huh... Let's see ke tum kitna aage badh sakte ho! My second dare, Sever one of your teammate's hands entirely. No tools or help allowed *Grin* do it with your bare hands...!
Malphas (Chuckle): Kekekeke, Interesting...!
Game Master ko bhi ab ye samajh aa gayi thi ke Aarav ko target karne se kuch nahi ho ga. Ab uske paas ek he chance tha Dare dene ke liye aur usne ab ki baar Aarav ko nahi uski team ko target kiya tha.
Ek haath ko khona stage 1 per bohat he badi baat thi. Unhe abhi bhi aage 3 stages ko clear karna tha aur abhi haath khone ka matlab khud ko aur bhi risk mein daalne ke barabar tha ya seedhe maut he thi.
Aise mein koi bhi kisi aur ke liye to uske haath ko sacrifice karne ko taiyar nahi hona tha. Uske liye to ye har taraf se he ek win win situation thi. Aarav ko Game Master ke chehre per ayi Smug look saaf dikhayi de rahi thi.
Aarav (Grin): Sure...!
Game Master: Huh?
Aarav ko khud ke saamne dobara muskurate daikh Game Master aur bhi confuse ho gaya. Usko lag raha tha ke usne finally Aarav ko difficult spot per khada ker diya tha. Lekin uske baad bhi Aarav ke chehre per usko bebasi dikhayi nahi de rahi thi.
“Corpse”
Game Master (Frowns): Huh??
Game Master ne Aarav ke side mein daikha to uske paas usko Yoo-Jung khadi dikhayi di. Yoo-Jung ne uska haath khud he aage kiya huwa tha. Yoo-Jung ko udhar aise khadi daikh Malphas aur bhi hansne laga.
Game Master (Smile): Really? Kya tum samajh bhi rahi ho ke yanha haath khone ka kya matlab hai?
Yoo-Jung (Stared): Aur tumhe ye samajh aa rahi hai ke yanha haath na khone se kya ho ga, Dumbass?
Game Master: *Silence*
Yoo-Jung ke saval per Game Master bhi bilkul chup ho gaya. Yoo-Jung usko simple baat bata rahi thi ke yanha agar haath sacrifice nahi kiya to unke paas aage badhne ka mauka he nahi ho ga.
Aise mein haath bacha ker bhi kya he faiyda hona tha? Ye ek basic knowledge thi. Lekin bohat se log waisi situation mein selfish ho ker ye soch he nahi pate the.
Lekin Game Master ko bhi ye ehsaas nahi tha ke uske saamne khade huwe dono he log sadharan insaan nahi the. Unke khud ke teammate bhi unko daikh ker hairan the. Lekin wo bhi ab unko rok nahi sakte the.
Yoo-Jung ne ek baar dobara Aarav ke aage haath ker diya. Aarav ne bhi uske haath ko pakad liya aur usko khinchne laga.
*Rrrrriip!*
*Crack*
Aarav ne Yoo-Jung ke ek haath ko khinchate huwe ukhadna shuru ker diya. Yoo-Jung ki skin khinchati daikh aur uski haddiyo ke crack hone ki awaazon ko sun ker udhar sab ke raungte khade hone lage.
*Splash*
Aarav ne uske haath ko beech se ukhad ker alag ker diya aur uske alag hote he Yoo-Jung ke haath se khoon ka favara chhalak pada aur neeche girne laga.
Caroline (Shivering): Luna, Ye healing potion le lo...!
Caroline ne Yoo-Jung ko ek healing potion de ker heal karna chaha to Yoo-Jung ne usko beech mein he rok diya aur apne bacche huwe haath ko baandh ker khoon ko behne se rok diya.
Game Master (Stunned): Fucking Monsters...!
Game Master ko bhi ab samajh nahi aa rahi thi ke ye bahaduri thi ya bewakoofi thi. Lekin usko bhi ye samajh aa gayi thi ke dono he crazy the.
[Dare Completed]
[Corpse has completed both dares successfully!]
[It is now Corpse’s turn to give a dare to the Game Master]
[Reminder: The dare must also be completed by Corpse]
[Position Switching]
[The Game Master position has switched]
[Corpse is now the Game Master for this turn]
Ab Aarav ki turn thi Game Master ko Dare dene ki aur uske paas Game Master ki authority bhi aa gayi thi sirf uss round ke liye. Lekin ab usko bhi Dare ko saath he complete karna tha.
Ek saath sab log Aarav ke Dare ko sunane ko taiyar ho gaye. Yanha tak ke Game Master khud bhi ab thoda dar raha tha. Aarav ne ab tak usko bohat si unexpected cheeze dikha di thi.
Aarav (Grin): My dare is simple...! You have to do 200 pushups, 1,000 jumping jacks, a 10-kilometer run around the stage, 200 up-downs, and 100 burpees.
Game Master: What?
Game Master ke saath udhar baaki sab bhi Aarav ke dare ko sun ker hairan ho gaye. Aarav ab tak Game Master ke dares ko bachkane keh raha tha aur khud usko excercise ka dare de raha tha.
Aarav (Nod): Yes, But here’s the twist...! you’ll do it all under 10 times Earth’s gravity.
Game Master: Aur?
Aarav: Aur kuch bhi nahi...!
10 times gravity mushkil thi. Lekin dono he players the unke liye ye karna possible tha. Lekin ye dara uske baad bhi unke liye bohat easy tha. Ab Game master ko lag raha tha ke Aarav uske saath khel he raha tha.
Game Master: Ye kya chaal chal rahe ho? Konsi khurafat chal rahi hai tumhe dimag ke andar?
Aarav (Smile): Kaisi khurafat? Ek dare diya hai ab usko complete bhi to karo na...!
Malphas: Huh?
[The Game Master has been issued a dare by Corpse!]
Udhar sab he Aarav ke dare se hairan the. Lekin ye Game Master ke liye possible tha to usne ye karne ka soch liya kyu ke Aarav ne uske Dare ko Use ker liya tha.
Malphas: Adjusting Gravity...!
Malphas ne sirf unke upar Gravity ko 10 times aur badha diya. Game Master fauran he Pushups ke liye position mein aa gaya.
Aarav ne uski taraf ek baar muskurate huwe daikha aur usne apni shirt ko utaar diya. Uske baad wo bhi pushups ke liye neeche position per aa gaya. Unke upar gravity zyada thi ye position normal se hard thi unke liye.
*Thump*
Aarav: Let's start....1...2...3...4...!

Dungeon ~ Spectators' Room
“What the fuck? Ye konsa Dare diya hai? Hum kya yanha per logo ko excercise karte daikhne ke liye aye hai? Paisa barbad behanchod...!”
Ek Deathwatcher uski jagha se gusse mein uthate huwe bola. Uske saath aur bhi Deathwatchers khush nahi the. Lekin kuch abhi bhi daikhna chah rahe the ke ye game aage kya rukh leti hai.
Joe (Deathwatcher): Calm down...! Yanha per abhi kehne se kya ho ga? Ladka mujhe acha he lag raha hai. Aage kuch bhi ho sakta hai.
Bryan (Deathwatcher) (Furious): Usko karne he ho ga! Ye agar kuch nahi kiya to aage saale ki gaand maar ker rakh dunga.
Joe (Smile): Ye tumhara to pata nahi! Lekin shayad aur uski already taiyari ker rahi hai.
Joe ne unke paas mein he baithi ek Deathwatcher ki taraf ishara karte huwe kaha to Bryan bhi uski taraf daikhne laga. Unke saamne ek bohat he khusburat middle age woman baithi huwi thi.
Lekin uski nazar screen per shirtless Pushups laga rahe Aarav per thi. Aurat aise he Eye candy ladko ko pasand karne ke liye famous thi. Aarav ki body ko daikh ker uske bhi arman jaag rahe the.

*Panting*
[Dare Completed!]
[The Game Master has successfully completed the dare issued by Corpse]
Aarav aur Game Master dono ne he Dare complete ker liya tha aur Game Master ka sharir pasine se bheeg gaya tha. Lekin Game Master hairan tha ke Dare mein aur kuch bhi nahi huwa tha.
[You've been sponsored by a Deathwatcher!]
[Sponsor: Red Rose]
[Dungeon Points: 130]
[Red Rose has taken a special interest in your body]
Aarav: *Smile*
Game Master (Laugh): Hahahaha, Ye he Dara tha kya? Lagta hai main ne tumhe kuch zyada he overestimate ker liya tha... Pathetic...!
Aarav: *Smile*
Game Master Aarav ko taunt karne ki koshish ker raha tha. Lekin uske taunt per Aarav ne sirf uski taraf muskurate huwe daikh liya. Ye ab Game Master ko aur bhi satane laga tha.
[The Game Master position has switched back]
[The original Game Master has regained his position]
[We will now proceed to the next stage of the game]
[Round 2 Begins]
[Round 2: Truth]
[The Game Master will now ask the first question]
[Answer truthfully to move forward]
Ab unhone Dare round ko complete ker liya tha aur wo next stage per aa gaye the. Game Master ko uski authority bhi dobara mil gayi thi. Aarav aur wo dono dobara ek dusre ke saamne khade ho gaye.
[Ability (Mind Whisper) Activated]
“Fuck You...!”
Game Master (Stunned): What!?
Game Master Aarav ke thoughts ko read karne ki koshish ker raha tha. Lekin Aarav ke thoughts mein usko seedhe 2 unexpected words sunayi diye.
Game Master (Relaxed): Let's try again...!
[Ability (Mind Whisper) Activated]
“Kya daikhna chah raha hai dumbass?”
Game Master: Huh?
Game Master ko vishwas nahi ho raha tha. Lekin ye pehli baar tha ke koi uske saamne yun khud ke thoughts ko control ker raha tha. Lekin wo Aarav ke real thoughts ko read ker nahi pa raha tha.
Kisi bhi insaan ke liye uske thoughts ko shift karna easy nahi tha. Uske liye ek strong mentality chahiye hoti thi. Lekin uske baad bhi Game Master ke liye uske andar gade huwe thoughts ko padhan mushkil nahi tha.
Lekin Aarav sab se alag tha. Aarav ek bohat lambe samay ke liye insanon se dur monsters ke beech reh ker aya tha. Ek lambe samay tak ap ke paas baat karne ko koi na ho to insaan ke thoughts negative turn le lete the.
Aarav ne prison ke andar kayi jagha per uske mind ko shift kiya tha. Ye he kaaran tha ke Aarav ka mind dusron se aur bhi strong tha aur uske intelligence stats bhi 500+ the.
Uske liye ye child's play tha. Lekin ab uske saamne Game Master ko kuch bhi samajh nahi aa rahi thi ke ye kya ho raha hai. Lekin usko samay rehte he saval karna tha.
Game Master (Smile): What’s your biggest regret? The one that keeps you awake at night, clawing at your sanity. Say it. Out loud. Relive it.
Aarav (Thinking): Regret...? Yeah, i have one... My regret is challenging an idiot like you and thinking it’d actually be entertaining.
Malphas (Laugh): Kekekeke... Fascinating....!
Aarav ka javab sun ker Game Master uska chehra he daikhta reh gaya. Uske saath he udhar baaki sab ki bhi hansi nikal ayi. Ye daikh Game master ko bhi gussa ane laga.
[Ability (Mind Whisper) Activated]
“Stop Trying... Idiot...!”
Game Master ne ek baar dobara Aarav ke thoughts ko padhne ki koshish ki. Lekin ab ki baar bhi usko kuch bhi pata nahi laga aur ye baat usko aur bhi annoy karne lagi.
[The Game Master was unable to verify the truth of the answer within 15 seconds]
[The answer is automatically considered true]
[Proceed to the next question]
Game Master (Furious): Kaise ker rahe ho ye tum?
Game Master ne aakhir uske act ko chhod he diya aur seedhe seedhe puch liya. Lekin uske saval per Aarav ne javab nahi diya aur uske saamne apni middle finger ker di.
Aarav: Fuck You...!
Game Master (Furious): Yo-
Malphas (Interfering): Next Question...!
Malphas ke interfere karne per Game Master bhi shaant ho gaya aur agla saval sochne laga. Usne ab tak sirf dusron ki weakness per saval banaye the. Lekin uske paas Aarav ki ek bhi weakness nahi thi.
Game Master: Who begged you to stay, and you walked away? Did you even look back?
[Ability (Mind Whisper) Activated]
Game Master ne kehte saath he ability ko active ker liya aur Aarav ke first thought ko read karne ki koshish karne laga. Lekin uski harkat daikh Aarav ne apne head ko halka tilt ker liya aur muskurane laga.
“Your Mom”
*Thump*
Aarav ke thought ko read karte he Game Master ki aankhe ek pal mein laal ho gayi. Uske reaction ko daikh ker Aarav bhi chaunk gaya. Usne itna bhi strong reaction expect nahi kiya tha.
Aarav: Your Mom...!
Aarav ne ek baar dobara uske javab ko muh se bhi keh diya. Ye sun ker Game Master aage badhne laga to Malphas ne usko beech mein he rok diya.
Malphas: Next Question...!
[The answer has been verified as true!]
[Corpse has answered both questions truthfully!]
[Corpse may now ask one question to the Game Master, which must be answered truthfully]
[The Game Master position has switched]
[Corpse is now the Game Master for the final question]
[As per the rules, Corpse is allowed to use the ability he selected before the game started]
Game Master (Breath): Fuuuu ~ Huh...!
Game Master Aarav ke last question ke liye ready ho gaya. Usko ab sirf ek javab dena tha aur wo uske baad Game khatam ker sakta tha.
Usko regret tha ke wo Aarav ko hara nahi saka tha. Lekin uske baad bhi usne kuch bhi ab tak khoya nahi tha. Lekin usne Aarav ki taraf daikha to uske andar dobara khauf janam lene laga.
Aarav ke chehre per ek katilana muskurahat saji huwi thi aur wo Game Master ko aise daikh raha tha jaise ek bhediya uske shikar ko daikhta tha.
[Analyzing target's mental state...]
[Analysis Complete]
[Target Status: Exhausted]
[Target’s mental defenses: Weak]
[Guard Status: Lowered]
[All conditions for ability (Mnemosyne's Gaze) have been met]
[Ability (Mnemosyne's Gaze) Activated]
Aarav ne uski aankhen band ker li aur usne apni ability Mnemosyne's Gaze ko active ker liya. Aarav ke Game Master ko diye Dare se wo abhi bhi bohat exhaust tha aur ab tak Aarav ke usko mock karne se uski mental strength bhi kam ho gayi thi.
Ye he mauka tha Aarav ke paas uske mind mein ghusne ke liye. Aarav ko aankhen band kiye daikh ker Game Master thoda hairan huwa. Lekin uske kuch samajh ata usse pehle he Aarav ne uski aankhon ko khol liya.
Lekin ab Aarav ke chehre per kuch alag he tarha ke expressions the. Disgusted, Shocked aur happy ek saath Aarav ke chehre per bohat se expressions the. Lekin sab ke baad Aarav ke chehre per dobara ek muskurahat thi.
Aarav (Grin): You filthy little creep! Did you really enjoyed fucking your own mother?
[Corpse has asked his question to the Game Master]
*Ba-dump-Ba-dump*
Ek pal mein Game Master ke dil dhadkane badhne lagi aur uske chehre ki rang udne lage. Usse uske khud ke kaano per vishwas nahi ho raha tha. Lekin Aarav ke chehre ki muskurahat se uske sharir aur bhi kaanp raha tha.
Game Master (Trembling): Y-Ye kya keh rahe ho? Y-Ye kab huwa?
Aarav: Come on, Stop pretending and tell me! How did it feel? Did she scream? Did she beg you to stop?
Game Master (shaking, breaking down)! Please...! stop...!
Game Master khud ko mushkil se control ker raha tha. Uski nazre uske aas-paas khade huwe sab logo ki taraf daikh rahi thi. Sab log usko ab ghin ki nazron se daikh rahe the.
Aarav (mockingly): Stop? But I’m just getting started! (leans in closer) Tell me, how did it feel to screw the very hole you came from?
Game Master (Scream): I said, Stoopppp!
*Bang*
*Bang*
*Bang*
*Clank*
Game Master ne kehte huwe gun ko uthaya aur Aarav ko shoot ker diya. Lekin Aarav ne ek dagger nikal ker uski Bullet ko beech se kaat diya.
Game Master ek baar dobara shoot karne laga to unke beech Malphas aa gaya.
Malphas: Game Master? *Scoff* Disappointed...!
[The Game Master has failed to provide a truthful answer]
[The Game Master attempted to harm Corpse during the challenge]
[Violation Detected: The Game Master has lost]
[Penalty: The Game Master will now Die.]
[The Carnival shows no mercy to those who break its rules]

[Aj ke liye itna he, Ye update 7.3K + Words ka tha aur iske saath he C.O.D ki first stage clear hoti hai. Exams ke liye coaching join ki hai to udhar aur bhi time lag raha hai. Aj 12 baje ana tha lekin ek important topic ne extra time le liya to late aya aur update bhi late ho gaya. Lekin der aye per durust aye
Padh kar to sare readers hi chonk gaye honge...
Aisa lag raha hai jaise ki yeh Malphas bhi usi planet se aaya hai. Shayad us game se related bhi ho.
Pehle mujhe Dungeon Masrer aur Game Master me confusion hua tha, ab clear ho gaya. Yahan par bhi ek Vyakti nikala. Hahaha... Benaam...
Chalo, Kunle ko 'Marked Invitation' bhejne ka karan aur kisne bheja, weh pata lag gaya.
Ufff... Akash ki pahunch aur uski power dekh kar maza aa gaya.
Kya yeh indirectly 'No Harm Allowed' condition ka violation nahi hai... Shayad kyonki Aarav ne khud yeh kiya, isliye nahi. Phir bhi...
Idiot, weh tumhe thaka raha hai, jisase Mnemosyne's Gaze activate ho jaye.
Ek mahila sympathiser bhi aa gayi...
Great, yeh to hona hi tha.
Yahan to Rajnikant type ki feeling aa rahi hai.
Chalo, ek to gaya. Main to Dungeon Master hai. Malphas to mere khayal se Aarav ka saath dega.
Akash ka character padh kar to rongte hi khade ho gaye... Pata nahi aaj raat ko neend ayegi bhi ya nahi... hahaha...
Anyways, a great update. Ab dekhna hai ki Dungeon Master ko Aarav kaise maarta hai.
Ek baat aur, kya Aarav apni aankh aur Yoo-Jung ki arm regenerate kar sakta hai...

“Kaisi Game?”
Game Master Aarav ke uske kareeb ane per he ab tak hairan tha. Lekin uske attitude ko daikh ker aur uski baat sun ker ab wo aur bhi hairan tha.
Usko ye samajh nahi aa rahi thi ke stage clear hone ke baad bhi Aarav aage badhne ki jagha situation ko khud ke liye aur difficult kyu bana raha tha.
Aarav (Nod): Yes, Let's play a game...!
Caroline: Corp-
Aarav ko game master ko challenge karte daikh ker Caroline bhi chaunk gayi. Unka aisa kisi bhi tarha ka plan nahi tha. Lekin Caroline ke beech mein ane se pehle he Yoo-Jung ne usko rok diya.
Caroline ne Yoo-Jung ki taraf daikha to usne usko shaant khadi rehne ka ishara ker diya. Yoo-Jung ko bhi kuch idea nahi tha. Lekin wo abhi situation ko observe karna chah rahi thi.
“Kekekeke, Interesting...!”
*Tuck*
Abhi sab Aarav ko ker daikh rahe the ke hava mein he kanhi se Malphas baahir aa gaya. Malphas ko udhar daikh ker ek pal ke liye Game Master bhi chaunk gaya.
Lekin Aarav ke uss arrogant behavior ke baad bhi Malphas ke expressions se lag nahi raha tha ke usko Aarav ki baat ka bura laga hai.
Game Master: Malphas?
Malphas (Grin): Laga he tha ke tum dusron se kuch to alag ho gye! Kekekeke, Lekin kya ye bahaduri hai ya bewakoofi?
Malphas ne game master ko bilkul he ignore ker diya aur Aarav ki taraf muskurate huwe honton per zuban fairate huwe daikhne laga. Uske chehre per ek lalsa dikhayi de rahi thi.
Aarav (Smug): Ab ye to game khelne ke baad he pata lage ga...!
Aarav ki baat sun ker Malphas aur bhi muskurane laga. Ab tak Aarav Malphas ke gaslight karne per kuch nahi keh raha tha. Lekin ab jaise usne unke saath he khelne ka nirnay le liya tha.
Malphas (Laugh): Kekeke...!
****
“Corpse!?”
Dungeon Master uski kursi per baithe huwe Aarav ko he daikh raha tha. Aarav ki harkat ne uska bhi dhayan khud ki taraf ker liya tha. Dungeon Master ke paas baitha vyakti Aarav ki team ki Information daikhne laga.
Vyakti (Reading): Corpse, Ye Kunle ki team mein hai! Kunle ko marked invitation se bulaya gaya hai. Anthony Delacroix paid five billion dollars to ensure he’d join the Carnival.
Dungeon Master: Five billion dollars, just to settle a grudge?
Vyakti (Nod): Yes, Anthony is the CEO of Sentinel Global Security, an international private security firm! Lekin Kunle ke protector guild banane ke baad se sab players ko he personal security ke liye hire ker rahe hai aur uske liye dugani keemat dene ko bhi taiyar hai. Anthony lost lucrative government contracts and corporate deals to Kunle’s guild.
Dungeon Master: Personal Security ke liye players?
Vyakti ki baat sun ker Dungeon Master ab Kunle ki taraf aur dilchaspi lene laga. Players Association aur guilds ki shuruaat huwe abhi 12 saal ke paas he huwe the.
Lekin ab tak sab players sirf gates ko clear karne per he dhayan dete the. Lekin aise mein Kunle ne ek security Guild bana li thi. Ye sun ker Dungeon Master bhi Kunle ki taraf dilchaspi se daikhne laga tha.
Vyakti (Nod): Haan, Kunle khud to sirf ek A rank Player he hai! Lekin uski guild ki ab tak 7 branches ban gayi hai aur uske under abhi 70K+ Players kaam ker rahe hai aur uske paas 1267 B-Rankers 768 A-Rankers 134 early stage S-rankers ke saath 7 Tutorial tower ke S-Rankers hai.
Dungeon Master: Hmm ~ Lekin ye Corpse kon hai?
Vyakti (Reading): Usne khud ki kisi bhi tarha ki personal information nahi di hai! Lekin probably wo Kunle ko marked invitation dene ka badla le raha ho ga.
Dungeon Master (Smug): Interesting, Lekin hamare paas uske challenge ko accept karne ka koi bhi reason nahi hai...!
Dungeon Master ne kursi per he seedhe baith ker muskurate huwe kaha.
Vyakti (Gasped): Huh?
Dungeon Master: What?
Vyakti (Gulp): Deathwatchers ne Corpse ko support karna shuru ker diya hai...!
Dungeon Master: What?

Dungeon ~ Spectators' Room
“Let's play a game”
“Woaaahhhh”
Spectators' Room ke andar Aarav ke challenge ko sun ker sabhi excited ho gaye. Unke beech mein se kuch ko Aarav ke arrogant behavior ko daikh ker gussa aa raha tha to kuch uske stage ko aur bhi zyada interesting banane per khush ho rahe the.
Kenneth (Deathwatcher): Ye behanchod, Who does he think he is? challenging the Game Master like that? Lagta hai yanha usko apni aukat ke baare mein ab tak pata nahi laga hai.
Kenneth ne ek he ghont mein drink ko khatam karte huwe kaha. Aarav ki harakat ko daikh ker usko ab aur bhi gussa aa raha tha. Ek Player ko aise aakar dikhate daikh usko jalan ho rahi thi.
Herbert (Deathwatcher): Hmm ~
Kenneth: Ab tumhe kya ho gaya?
Herbert ko soch mein dooba daikh ker Kenneth bhi hairan ho gaya. Kyu ke ab tak usne Herbert ko kisi bhi player ki death per ya stage clear karne mein intrest lete nahi daikha tha.
Herbert: I don't know, Lekin main daikhna chahata hu ke ye kya challenge de raha hai!?
Kenneth (Annoyed): Lekin aisa kyu? Hum kya uske orders ko follow karne ke liye paise de rahe hai aur yanha per aye hai? Ab kya wo games ko control kare ga?
Herbert (Smirk): Isn’t that why we’re here? To watch fools like him flirt with death? Kya farak padta hai ke wo Player ho ya game master khud he kyu na ho. Ab dono ko he tadapte daikhne ka utna he maza aye ga. But.... The audacity... it’s delicious. I’m almost rooting for him.
Kenneth ne uski aankhon mein daikha to Herbert ki aankhon mein khoon he utar aya tha. Uske hont ab excitement se kaanp rahe the. Herbert ek God ki tarha shikari ko shikar bante daikh raha tha.
“True pleasure is found when the predator becomes the prey, and the tables turn on those who once ruled with fear”
[#4 Deathwatcher paid 1 billion dollars to back Corpse’s challenge against the Game Master]
Ek notification badi screen per aya to sab ki nazar ek saath #4 Deathwatcher ki seat per chale gayi. Ek he pal mein kamre ki hava aur bhi bhaadi ho gayi thi aur tanav ka mahaul ban gaya tha.
Kenneth (Staring): Big Billy...!
#4 Deathwatcher Big Billy tha aur uski ungali green button ke upar thi. Big Billy dusron ki tarha wealthy family se nahi tha.
Big Billy ek aisa insaan tha jisne kuch he samay ke andar khud ka empire khada ker diya tha aur bohat se logo ka dhandha band karwa diya tha.
Un sab ke mann mein Billy ke liye bhi kisi player se kam nafrat nahi thi. Big Billy ne halka head tilt karte huwe aankhon ke kone se sab ki taraf daikha aur halki muskurahat ke saath muskurane laga.
Big Billy ki Side Eye sab ko mock ker rahi thi. Uske expressions udhar baithe sab Deathwatchers ko trigger ker rahe the. Big Billy unhe dikha raha tha ke uske liye players ke saath wo sab bhi keede makodon ki tarha he the.
*Click*
[#3 Deathwatcher paid 1.1 billion dollars to back Corpse’s challenge against the Game Master]
Big Billy ke paas baithe huwe ek aur Deathwatcher ne challenge ko support ker diya. Ek Deathwatcher har stage per sirf ek baar he support ker sakta tha to Big Billy stage 1 per aur support nahi ker sakta tha.
Lekin #3 ke Action se udhar aur bhi logon ke andar aag jalne lagi. Unke beech ab ek yuddh shuru ho chuka tha. Ab baat sab ke ego per aa gayi thi aur ab shaant rehna unke liye haar ka sanket ke barabar tha.

Aarav ke game master ko diye challenge ko C.O.D ne accept ker liya tha. Lekin unke saath aur bhi bohat conditions thi. Aarav ke liye ye challenge har taraf se disadvantage per tha.
Usko na to kuch bhi challenge se mil raha tha aur usko challenge ke beech game master ko aur bhi advantage dene per rahe the. Ye kisi ke liye bhi ek maut se kam nahi thi.
Game Master (Smug): Kya huwa, Hava nikal gayi kya?
Game Master ne Aarav ki taraf chehre per ek vijayi muskurahat sajaye huwe kaha. Malphas bhi Aarav ki khamoshi ko daikh ker disappoint hone laga.
Aarav (Smug): Let's Play...!
Malphas: Huh...Sachi!? Sab kuch pata hone ke baad bhi?
Aarav (Nod): Haan, Sab kuch pata hone ke baad bhi...! *Smirk*

Takahashi's Residence
Wind Clan ~ 4 Days Ago...!
*Sigh*
Aarav Daisuke ki ghar ki chhat per baitha chand ki taraf daikh raha tha aur socho mein gum tha. Unke C.O.D mein jaane ke liye ab kuch he din baaki the aur Aarav abhi bhi sure nahi tha.
“Aarav”
Aarav ko bulate huwe Aakash aur Yoo-Jung dono upar aa gaye. Aarav ne he unhe udhar bina kisi ko bhi bataye ane ke liye kaha tha. Aarav ne ek baar confirm kiya ke udhar unke sivaye koi aur to nahi hai.
Lekin kisi ki bhi presence ke feel na hone per Aarav ne Tinkerbell ko ek sound barrier banane ke liye keh diya. Sound barrier se unki awaaz baahir kisi ko bhi sunayi nahi deni thi.
Yoo-Jung: Aarav, Yanha hamay akele kyu bulaya hai?
Aarav: Yanha hum C.O.D ke baare mein kuch baate karne wale hai! C.O.D se kisi aur ka connection nahi hai to unhe bulana sahi nahi ho ga. Unke paas unke apne task bhi hai karne ke liye.
Aarav ne unki C.O.D ke related ab tak huwi sabhi meetings se andaza laga liya tha ke har meeting ke saath sab unke liye aur dar he rahe the aur wo kisi bhi tarha se unki help nahi ker sakte the.
Aarav: Tinkerbell...!
Tinkerbell: [Huh, Kya huwa? Aur ye tum sab ke saamne kyu bula rahe ho?]
Aarav: Yoo-Jung aur Aakash ke saamne kabhi na kabhi tumhe ana he ho ga! Unse chhupane se kuch bhi nahi ho ga.
Tinkerbell (Annoyed): [Ughhh, Fine...!]
Aarav ke kehne per Tinkerbell bhi unke saamne ane ke liye taiyar ho gayi. Aarav ne bhi usko time dete huwe transform hone diya.
Tinkerbell: Fuuuu ~
Aakash aur Yoo-Jung ke saamne Tinkerbell ab ek human form mein khadi huwi thi. Ek pal ke liye usko daikh ker dono hairan reh gaye. Lekin unki hairani ka kaaran Tinkerbell ki khubsurati thi. Unke saamne jaise ek angel he khadi huwi thi.
Tinkerbell ne ab tak ye form sirf ek baar li thi Aarav ko bachane ke liye. Lekin tab ki situation aur ab ko situation alag thi. Lekin phir bhi Aarav ke kehne per usko calm hona per gaya.
Aakash aur Yoo-Jung bhi dono kuch he palon mein normal ho gaye. Aarav ne un sab ke beech ki uss Nervousness ke khatam hone ka intezar kiya aur uske baad dobara baat karni shuru ker di.
Aarav: Tinkerbell ko lagta hai ke shayad uske paas bhi C.O.D ki kuch Information hai! Abhi tak wo sure nahi hai. Lekin phir bhi ye information worth listening ho sakti hai.
Aarav ki baat sun ker un dono ko bhi pata lag gaya ke Aarav ne unhe kyu bulaya hai. Yoo-Jung Aarav ke saath ja rahi thi usko sab kuch pata hona bohat he zaroori tha.
Aakash ke paas C.O.D ki Association se bhi zyada information thi. Aarav usko sunana chah raha tha ke aise unhe kuch raasta dikh sakta tha. Ab sab he Tinkerbell ki taraf daikh rahe the.
Tinkerbell (Relaxed): Fuuuu ~ Main utni sure to nahi hu! Lekin shayad C.O.D ke baare mein main ne pehle bhi suna hai. Ab tak ki sab information ko sun ker mujhe lagta hai ke aisa kuch dusre worlds mein bhi ho chuka hai.
Yoo-Jung: C.O.D?
Tinkerbell (Nod): Uska naam ye nahi tha! Lekin tab bhi 4 stages ki ek dungeon thi aur uska Dungeon Master tha ek wizard king aur ye games Dungeon ko sacrifice dene ke liye aur wizard king ki power ko badhane ke liye hoti thi.
Yoo-Jung: Lekin ye dono alag bhi to ho sakti hai na?
Tinkerbell (Nod): Haan, Ye he reason hai ke main ab tak sure nahi hu! Lekin mujhe kuch aur khaas information mil sakti to main confirm ker sakti thi.
Aakash:... Deathwatchers?
Aakash ne kuch sochne ke baad kaha to Tinkerbell ka dhayan fauran uski taraf chale gaya. Aakash ne uska reaction daikha to wo muskurane laga.
Tinkerbell: Deathwatchers... *Nod* Haan, Ye wizard king ki dungeon mein bhi the...!
Tinkerbell ne kehte huwe ek book ko inventory se nikal liya aur uska ek page khol ker sab ko dikhane lagi.
[Who are Deathwatchers?]
[Deathwatchers are people who take pleasure in watching death and suffering. To become a Deathwatcher, they must give offerings to the Dungeon Master and try to win his favor. Those who manage to satisfy him earn a Deathwatcher seat, granting them some authority within the Dungeon]
Aakash ki baat aur Tinkerbell ki explanation ko sun ker sab aur bhi sure ho gaye the. Lekin ab sab ka dhayan Tinkerbell se Aakash ki taraf ho gaya tha.
Aakash (Smile): Bingo... Yanha C.O.D ke andar bhi Deathwatchers hai! Unke liye bhi aisi he condition thi. Ek bhaadi keemat dene ke baad unhe bhi dungeon ke andar Deathwatcher ki seath mili hai.
Yoo-Jung: Hmm ~ Agar hum kisi Deathwatcher ko hamari side per ker sake to hum C.O.D ke andar se bhi game ko manipulate ker sakte hai! Lekin hum ye kare gaye kaise? Kyu ke Deathwatcher per unki nazar ho gi he ho gi.
Yoo-Jung ka idea sahi tha. Lekin uska concern bhi sahi tha. Kyu ke Deathwatcher ke liye unhe kisi trusted insaan ki zaroorat thi.
Lekin Aarav abhi bhi shaanti se Aakash ko daikh raha tha. Yoo-Jung aur Tinkerbell bhi unhe daikh ker confuse ho rahi thi.
Aarav (Smile): Huh, Already tum ne Deathwatchers ko andar bheja huwa hai?
Aakash (Nod): Yes...!
Unki baat sun ker Yoo-Jung aur Tinkerbell dono he chauk gayi. Aarav ne ye guess to ker liya tha. Lekin guess karne ke baad bhi ye baat uske liye hairan ker dene wali thi.
Aarav: Lekin kaise?
Aakash kitne samay se bedridden tha ye Aarav ko bhi pata tha. Lekin uske baad bhi Aakash ne uska ek spy Deathwatcher bana diya tha. Ye baat Aarav ko bhi samajh nahi aa rahi thi.
Aakash: Kya tumhe sach mein lagta tha ke Sayani enterprise he mera sab kuch tha? Haan, Sayani ke liye unka business sab kuch tha. Lekin mere liye utna kaafi nahi tha.
Aarav: Aur Vansh ki barbadi?
Aakash (Smirk): Sab ko lagta hai ke Vansh ne sab kuch kho diya! Lekin uske peeche hamesha se he main tha. Vansh ko to main ne tumhare liye kuch bhi nahi kiya. Lekin main usko tadpaye bina kaise reh sakta tha?
Aarav: Huh?
Aakash (Smile): I stayed in the shadows, pulling the strings, making my puppets dance! I’m the one who ruined Vansh and took everything from him.
Aarav ne Vansh ki memories mein daikha tha ke usne sab kuch dheeme dheeme loss mein kho diya tha. Lekin ab ye sense bana rahi thi ke un sab ke peeche Aakash he tha.
Aakash khud saamne na ho ker bhi uske puppets se sab kuch control ker raha tha. Uske paas kuch na bhi ho ker sab kuch tha. He was the kind of man who can flip an entire country upside down on his own.
Ye pehli baar he tha ke Aarav khud ko lucky maan raha tha ke Aakash uske saath tha uske khilaf nahi tha. Aakash ke paas aur kya kuch tha uska Aarav ko bhi andaza nahi tha.
Aarav: Lekin kya guarantee hai ke wo trust karne ke layak hai? Ye bhi to ho sakta hai na ke wo dhokha de de?
Aarav kisi per bhi bharosa nahi ker sakta tha. Usne ek baar ker ke daikh liya tha. Lekin trustworthy log bhi majboori mein dhokha de he dete the.
Aakash (Smile): Trust him? You’re looking at this all wrong.
Aarav what?
Aakash: Dhokha dena to bohat dur ki baat hai! Even the thought would send him into a cold sweat.
Tinkerbell (Stunned): Kaise?
Aakash (Sigh): Huh... You see, I’m not the kind of man people cross! When I say I hold someone’s life in my hands, I mean it literally.
Aarav ya Yoo-Jung ye puchna bhi nahi chahte the ke Aakash ye kaise kare ga. Unhe ab tak andaza ho gaya tha ke Aakash ke paas uske khud ke raaste the uski kathputaliyon ko control karne ke.
Aarav: Aur tum Deathwatchers ke baare mein kab batane wale the?
Ye saval udhar sab ke mann mein tha. Aakash ke paas aisa trump card tha to usne ab tak unhe uske baare mein bataya kyu nahi tha?
Aakash (Smile): Main wait ker raha tha ke tum kab yanha tak figure out karte ho! Uske baad he main sab kuch batane wala tha.
Aarav: Aur agar main na ker sakta to?
Aakash: Ek to mujhe tum per poori tarha vishwas tha! Lekin uske baad bhi tum na ker sakte to main tumhe kisi halat mein bhi C.O.D mein participate na karne deta.
Aakash ke chehre ke bhav ek pal ke liye serious ho gaye. Un teeno ko mehsoos ho raha tha ke Aakash kitna serious tha. Unhe ab ye samajh aa rahi thi ke Aakash ka khauf sab ke raungte kyu khade ker deta tha.
Aarav: Lekin Kunle ka kya? Usko tum kaise bachane wale the?
Aarav ne Aakash se pucha bhi nahi ke wo usko kaise rokne wala tha. Usne seedhe aage ke baare mein pucha.
Aakash (Sigh): I only care about my people! The rest of the world can burn for all I care.

Carnival of Death
Dungeon ~ Stage 1 Floor 1
Malphas: Kekeke, Ab Konsi game ke liye challenge ker rahe ho tum?
Malphas ne uske honto per uski rakshasi jeeb ko firate huwe kaha aur hansne laga. Aarav ke diye gaye challenge ko accept ker liya gaya tha. Lekin ab usko batana tha ke wo konsi game ke liye challenge karna chahta tha.
Unke kaaran se baaki sab bhi stage 1 per he ruk gaye the. Unke beech se kuch gusse mein the to kuch thankful the ke Aarav ke kaaran unhen kuch aur samay jeene ke liye mil gaya tha.
Aarav ke saamne ek window khul gayi. Aarav ko ab uske andar game ki details add karni thi.
Aarav: Dare and Truth...!
Game Master (Dazed): Truth or Dare?
Game Master aur udhar sab thode hairan ho gaye ke Aarav ek simple truth or dare ke liye challenge ker raha tha. Lekin Aarav uska naam alag tarha se le raha tha.
Aarav: Nah, Dare and Truth...! Hum Dare and Truth khele gaye.
[ENTER]
Aarav ne game ki sab details ko add ker ke game ka challenge Game Master ko bhej diya. Aarav ke chehre ke confidence ko daikh ker Game Master kuch zyada khush nahi lag raha tha.
[Challenge Game Details: Dare and Truth]
[Round 1: Dares]
[The Game Master will start by giving 2 dares to Corpse]
[If Corpse completes both dares, he will give 1 dare to the Game Master]
[Round 2: Truth]
[The Game Master will then ask 2 questions to Corpse]
[If Corpse answers both truthfully, he will ask 1 question to the Game Master, which must be answered truthfully]
[Rules]
[No deadly dares: Dares must not result in death or bring the player close to death.]
[Within the stage: All dares must be doable within the current stage]
[Identity protection: Questions cannot reveal the other person’s identity]
[No C.O.D. questions: Questions related to the Carnival of Death are strictly forbidden]
[Switching roles: The role of Game Master switches during turns]
[Ability use: The person acting as Game Master during their turn can use their ability, but only once per question]
[No harm or attacks: Harm or any form of attack is prohibited at all times]
[Answer Rules]
[Time limit: 15 seconds will be given to answer each question]
[If the Game Master cannot confirm whether the answer is true within that time, it will be considered true]
[Knowledge of the truth: The person answering must know the truth. If they genuinely don’t know the answer, the question will be invalid]
Aarav khud ko disadvantage de raha tha khud ko 2 dares aur 2 questions de ker ab uske liye ye game master se double difficult tha. Lekin Aarav ne uski taraf daikha to Game Master utne se khush nahi tha.
Game Master ke chehre per ek darindgi se bhari huwi muskurahat aa gayi. Usko daikh ker udhar ke sab players he dar gaye.
Game Master: Ek aur condition ho gi! Mujhe diya gaya Dare bhi tumhe mere saath he karna ho ga.
Kunle (Furious): Ye to unfair hai! Ab ye bhi Corpse kare ga to Game Fair kanha rahe gi?
Game Master (Grin): Grow up, kid! Life was always unfair, get used to it!
Game Master ka javab sun ker Kunle ko ab aur bhi gussa ane laga tha. Lekin usne situation ko ab aur complicated karna sahi nahi samjha.
Kunle: Corpse, Ye game fair nahi hai! Mujhe nahi lagta ke tumhe aage badhna chahiye hai.
Tinkerbell: [Master, Kunle theek keh raha hai! Ye game kanhi se bhi hamare favor mein nahi hai aur na he hum kuch ker sakte hai. Mujhe nahi lagta ke ap ko aage badhna chahiye hai]
Aarav: [Dungeon Master ye he chahata hai! Uski ye he koshish hai ke wo mujhe kisi tarha se challenge waapis lene ke liye force ker de *Grin* Lekin mujhe laga tha ke ye kuch aur hard try kare gaye... Ye sab kuch ab bhi mere plan ke according he chal raha hai.]
Aarav ki baat sun ker Tinkerbell aur ghabrane lag gayi thi. Usko bhi pata tha ke sab unfair conditions ke peeche Dungeon Master tha.
Ye challenge agar Dungeon Master ki side se reject hota to Aarav ke challenge ki support offering bhi saath reject honi thi. Lekin agar Aarav he challenge ko waapis le leta to offering Dungeon Master ko tab bhi recieve honi thi.
Aarav (Smug): Accepted...! Now, Let's start.
[New Condition: Any dare Corpse gives to the Game Master, Corpse must also perform alongside him]
Game Master (Stunned): Huh?
Aarav ne uski add ki gayi condition ko bhi accept ker liya aur stage ke beech mein chala gaya. Lekin ye daikh ker Malphas aur bhi muskurane laga aur Game Master sirf uski audacity per hairan tha.
Malphas: Interesting *Slurp*
****
[$32,606,988,497]
Vyakti (Smile): Master, Ye challenge to hamari soch se bhi zyada kaam ka tha! Lekin kya Victor ko aise challenge accept karwana zaroori tha?
Vyakti uske saamne badhte numbers ko daikh ker khush ho raha tha. Lekin usko Aarav ka confidence dara bhi raha tha. Disadvantage per hone ke baad bhi Aarav back off nahi ker raha tha.
Dungeon Master: He's brave but not reckless! Lekin ab hum kuch ker bhi nahi sakte. Malphas rules ko kabhi bhi tootne nahi de ga... Ab Victor ke haatho mein he uska bhavishya hai.
Game Master uski kursi per peeche lean karte huwe aaram se baith gaya. Uske liye Game Master khaas tha. Lekin vyakti ke saamne badhte numbers ko daikhte huwe usne Game Master ko bhi ignore ker diya.
Vyakti (Smile): Best of luck, Victor...!

Carnival of Death
Dungeon ~ Stage 1 Floor 1
[Game Begin!]
[Round 1: Dares has started]
[The Game Master will now issue the first dare. Failure to comply with the rules will result in immediate death]
Aarav aur Game Master dono stage ke beech mein khade huwe the aur dono ke beech Malphas khada huwa tha. Lekin unke paas khadi Aarav ki team ab bhi uske liye pareshan thi.
Game Master (Grin): Stab your own eye with a dagger...!
[The Game Master has issued the first dare]
[Complete the dare to proceed to the next one]
*Stab*
*Squish*
Game Master (Stunned): Huh?
Game Master ke Dare dete he Aarav ne ek pal ke liye bhi nahi socha aur dagger se apni aankh ko phor diya. Game Master ke saath uski khud ki team bhi hairani se muh khole usko daikh rahi thi.
Aarav: Is that your best? *Scoff* Pathetic...!
Aarav ki phooti huwi aankh se lagatar khoon beh raha tha. Lekin uske baad bhi Aarav ke chehre per dard ka ehsaas bhi dikhayi nahi de raha tha.
Malphas (Excited): Not a twitch, Not even a flinch!? He's face remains cold and focused... Fascinating...!
Game Master bhi Aarav ki craziness daikh ker ab hairan tha. Lekin Aarav ke taunts per ab usko gussa bhi ane laga tha.
[You've been sponsored by a Deathwatcher!]
[Sponsor: Big Billy]
[Dungeon Points: 120]
[Big Billy has taken a special interest in your bravery]
[A powerful ally has chosen you. Use the points wisely]
Aarav ke saamne Deathwatcher ke sponsor karne ka notification aa gaya. Aakash ne usko sponsor ke baare mein bhi bataya tha.
Sponsor karne se Deathwatcher unke sponsor kiye gaye player ko message ker sakte the aur unko Dungeon points bhi de sakte the. $250K ka sirf ek Dungeon point tha to Big Billy ne Aarav ko $30M se sponsor kiya tha.
[Dare Completed]
[Corpse has successfully completed the first dare!]
[The Game Master will now issue the second dare]
Game Master (Sigh): Huh... Let's see ke tum kitna aage badh sakte ho! My second dare, Sever one of your teammate's hands entirely. No tools or help allowed *Grin* do it with your bare hands...!
Malphas (Chuckle): Kekekeke, Interesting...!
Game Master ko bhi ab ye samajh aa gayi thi ke Aarav ko target karne se kuch nahi ho ga. Ab uske paas ek he chance tha Dare dene ke liye aur usne ab ki baar Aarav ko nahi uski team ko target kiya tha.
Ek haath ko khona stage 1 per bohat he badi baat thi. Unhe abhi bhi aage 3 stages ko clear karna tha aur abhi haath khone ka matlab khud ko aur bhi risk mein daalne ke barabar tha ya seedhe maut he thi.
Aise mein koi bhi kisi aur ke liye to uske haath ko sacrifice karne ko taiyar nahi hona tha. Uske liye to ye har taraf se he ek win win situation thi. Aarav ko Game Master ke chehre per ayi Smug look saaf dikhayi de rahi thi.
Aarav (Grin): Sure...!
Game Master: Huh?
Aarav ko khud ke saamne dobara muskurate daikh Game Master aur bhi confuse ho gaya. Usko lag raha tha ke usne finally Aarav ko difficult spot per khada ker diya tha. Lekin uske baad bhi Aarav ke chehre per usko bebasi dikhayi nahi de rahi thi.
“Corpse”
Game Master (Frowns): Huh??
Game Master ne Aarav ke side mein daikha to uske paas usko Yoo-Jung khadi dikhayi di. Yoo-Jung ne uska haath khud he aage kiya huwa tha. Yoo-Jung ko udhar aise khadi daikh Malphas aur bhi hansne laga.
Game Master (Smile): Really? Kya tum samajh bhi rahi ho ke yanha haath khone ka kya matlab hai?
Yoo-Jung (Stared): Aur tumhe ye samajh aa rahi hai ke yanha haath na khone se kya ho ga, Dumbass?
Game Master: *Silence*
Yoo-Jung ke saval per Game Master bhi bilkul chup ho gaya. Yoo-Jung usko simple baat bata rahi thi ke yanha agar haath sacrifice nahi kiya to unke paas aage badhne ka mauka he nahi ho ga.
Aise mein haath bacha ker bhi kya he faiyda hona tha? Ye ek basic knowledge thi. Lekin bohat se log waisi situation mein selfish ho ker ye soch he nahi pate the.
Lekin Game Master ko bhi ye ehsaas nahi tha ke uske saamne khade huwe dono he log sadharan insaan nahi the. Unke khud ke teammate bhi unko daikh ker hairan the. Lekin wo bhi ab unko rok nahi sakte the.
Yoo-Jung ne ek baar dobara Aarav ke aage haath ker diya. Aarav ne bhi uske haath ko pakad liya aur usko khinchne laga.
*Rrrrriip!*
*Crack*
Aarav ne Yoo-Jung ke ek haath ko khinchate huwe ukhadna shuru ker diya. Yoo-Jung ki skin khinchati daikh aur uski haddiyo ke crack hone ki awaazon ko sun ker udhar sab ke raungte khade hone lage.
*Splash*
Aarav ne uske haath ko beech se ukhad ker alag ker diya aur uske alag hote he Yoo-Jung ke haath se khoon ka favara chhalak pada aur neeche girne laga.
Caroline (Shivering): Luna, Ye healing potion le lo...!
Caroline ne Yoo-Jung ko ek healing potion de ker heal karna chaha to Yoo-Jung ne usko beech mein he rok diya aur apne bacche huwe haath ko baandh ker khoon ko behne se rok diya.
Game Master (Stunned): Fucking Monsters...!
Game Master ko bhi ab samajh nahi aa rahi thi ke ye bahaduri thi ya bewakoofi thi. Lekin usko bhi ye samajh aa gayi thi ke dono he crazy the.
[Dare Completed]
[Corpse has completed both dares successfully!]
[It is now Corpse’s turn to give a dare to the Game Master]
[Reminder: The dare must also be completed by Corpse]
[Position Switching]
[The Game Master position has switched]
[Corpse is now the Game Master for this turn]
Ab Aarav ki turn thi Game Master ko Dare dene ki aur uske paas Game Master ki authority bhi aa gayi thi sirf uss round ke liye. Lekin ab usko bhi Dare ko saath he complete karna tha.
Ek saath sab log Aarav ke Dare ko sunane ko taiyar ho gaye. Yanha tak ke Game Master khud bhi ab thoda dar raha tha. Aarav ne ab tak usko bohat si unexpected cheeze dikha di thi.
Aarav (Grin): My dare is simple...! You have to do 200 pushups, 1,000 jumping jacks, a 10-kilometer run around the stage, 200 up-downs, and 100 burpees.
Game Master: What?
Game Master ke saath udhar baaki sab bhi Aarav ke dare ko sun ker hairan ho gaye. Aarav ab tak Game Master ke dares ko bachkane keh raha tha aur khud usko excercise ka dare de raha tha.
Aarav (Nod): Yes, But here’s the twist...! you’ll do it all under 10 times Earth’s gravity.
Game Master: Aur?
Aarav: Aur kuch bhi nahi...!
10 times gravity mushkil thi. Lekin dono he players the unke liye ye karna possible tha. Lekin ye dara uske baad bhi unke liye bohat easy tha. Ab Game master ko lag raha tha ke Aarav uske saath khel he raha tha.
Game Master: Ye kya chaal chal rahe ho? Konsi khurafat chal rahi hai tumhe dimag ke andar?
Aarav (Smile): Kaisi khurafat? Ek dare diya hai ab usko complete bhi to karo na...!
Malphas: Huh?
[The Game Master has been issued a dare by Corpse!]
Udhar sab he Aarav ke dare se hairan the. Lekin ye Game Master ke liye possible tha to usne ye karne ka soch liya kyu ke Aarav ne uske Dare ko Use ker liya tha.
Malphas: Adjusting Gravity...!
Malphas ne sirf unke upar Gravity ko 10 times aur badha diya. Game Master fauran he Pushups ke liye position mein aa gaya.
Aarav ne uski taraf ek baar muskurate huwe daikha aur usne apni shirt ko utaar diya. Uske baad wo bhi pushups ke liye neeche position per aa gaya. Unke upar gravity zyada thi ye position normal se hard thi unke liye.
*Thump*
Aarav: Let's start....1...2...3...4...!

Carnival of Death
Dungeon ~ Spectators' Room
“What the fuck? Ye konsa Dare diya hai? Hum kya yanha per logo ko excercise karte daikhne ke liye aye hai? Paisa barbad behanchod...!”
Ek Deathwatcher uski jagha se gusse mein uthate huwe bola. Uske saath aur bhi Deathwatchers khush nahi the. Lekin kuch abhi bhi daikhna chah rahe the ke ye game aage kya rukh leti hai.
Joe (Deathwatcher): Calm down...! Yanha per abhi kehne se kya ho ga? Ladka mujhe acha he lag raha hai. Aage kuch bhi ho sakta hai.
Bryan (Deathwatcher) (Furious): Usko karne he ho ga! Ye agar kuch nahi kiya to aage saale ki gaand maar ker rakh dunga.
Joe (Smile): Ye tumhara to pata nahi! Lekin shayad aur uski already taiyari ker rahi hai.
Joe ne unke paas mein he baithi ek Deathwatcher ki taraf ishara karte huwe kaha to Bryan bhi uski taraf daikhne laga. Unke saamne ek bohat he khusburat middle age woman baithi huwi thi.
Lekin uski nazar screen per shirtless Pushups laga rahe Aarav per thi. Aurat aise he Eye candy ladko ko pasand karne ke liye famous thi. Aarav ki body ko daikh ker uske bhi arman jaag rahe the.

*Panting*
[Dare Completed!]
[The Game Master has successfully completed the dare issued by Corpse]
Aarav aur Game Master dono ne he Dare complete ker liya tha aur Game Master ka sharir pasine se bheeg gaya tha. Lekin Game Master hairan tha ke Dare mein aur kuch bhi nahi huwa tha.
[You've been sponsored by a Deathwatcher!]
[Sponsor: Red Rose]
[Dungeon Points: 130]
[Red Rose has taken a special interest in your body]
Aarav: *Smile*
Game Master (Laugh): Hahahaha, Ye he Dara tha kya? Lagta hai main ne tumhe kuch zyada he overestimate ker liya tha... Pathetic...!
Aarav: *Smile*
Game Master Aarav ko taunt karne ki koshish ker raha tha. Lekin uske taunt per Aarav ne sirf uski taraf muskurate huwe daikh liya. Ye ab Game Master ko aur bhi satane laga tha.
[The Game Master position has switched back]
[The original Game Master has regained his position]
[We will now proceed to the next stage of the game]
[Round 2 Begins]
[Round 2: Truth]
[The Game Master will now ask the first question]
[Answer truthfully to move forward]
Ab unhone Dare round ko complete ker liya tha aur wo next stage per aa gaye the. Game Master ko uski authority bhi dobara mil gayi thi. Aarav aur wo dono dobara ek dusre ke saamne khade ho gaye.
[Ability (Mind Whisper) Activated]
“Fuck You...!”
Game Master (Stunned): What!?
Game Master Aarav ke thoughts ko read karne ki koshish ker raha tha. Lekin Aarav ke thoughts mein usko seedhe 2 unexpected words sunayi diye.
Game Master (Relaxed): Let's try again...!
[Ability (Mind Whisper) Activated]
“Kya daikhna chah raha hai dumbass?”
Game Master: Huh?
Game Master ko vishwas nahi ho raha tha. Lekin ye pehli baar tha ke koi uske saamne yun khud ke thoughts ko control ker raha tha. Lekin wo Aarav ke real thoughts ko read ker nahi pa raha tha.
Kisi bhi insaan ke liye uske thoughts ko shift karna easy nahi tha. Uske liye ek strong mentality chahiye hoti thi. Lekin uske baad bhi Game Master ke liye uske andar gade huwe thoughts ko padhan mushkil nahi tha.
Lekin Aarav sab se alag tha. Aarav ek bohat lambe samay ke liye insanon se dur monsters ke beech reh ker aya tha. Ek lambe samay tak ap ke paas baat karne ko koi na ho to insaan ke thoughts negative turn le lete the.
Aarav ne prison ke andar kayi jagha per uske mind ko shift kiya tha. Ye he kaaran tha ke Aarav ka mind dusron se aur bhi strong tha aur uske intelligence stats bhi 500+ the.
Uske liye ye child's play tha. Lekin ab uske saamne Game Master ko kuch bhi samajh nahi aa rahi thi ke ye kya ho raha hai. Lekin usko samay rehte he saval karna tha.
Game Master (Smile): What’s your biggest regret? The one that keeps you awake at night, clawing at your sanity. Say it. Out loud. Relive it.
Aarav (Thinking): Regret...? Yeah, i have one... My regret is challenging an idiot like you and thinking it’d actually be entertaining.
Malphas (Laugh): Kekekeke... Fascinating....!
Aarav ka javab sun ker Game Master uska chehra he daikhta reh gaya. Uske saath he udhar baaki sab ki bhi hansi nikal ayi. Ye daikh Game master ko bhi gussa ane laga.
[Ability (Mind Whisper) Activated]
“Stop Trying... Idiot...!”
Game Master ne ek baar dobara Aarav ke thoughts ko padhne ki koshish ki. Lekin ab ki baar bhi usko kuch bhi pata nahi laga aur ye baat usko aur bhi annoy karne lagi.
[The Game Master was unable to verify the truth of the answer within 15 seconds]
[The answer is automatically considered true]
[Proceed to the next question]
Game Master (Furious): Kaise ker rahe ho ye tum?
Game Master ne aakhir uske act ko chhod he diya aur seedhe seedhe puch liya. Lekin uske saval per Aarav ne javab nahi diya aur uske saamne apni middle finger ker di.
Aarav: Fuck You...!
Game Master (Furious): Yo-
Malphas (Interfering): Next Question...!
Malphas ke interfere karne per Game Master bhi shaant ho gaya aur agla saval sochne laga. Usne ab tak sirf dusron ki weakness per saval banaye the. Lekin uske paas Aarav ki ek bhi weakness nahi thi.
Game Master: Who begged you to stay, and you walked away? Did you even look back?
[Ability (Mind Whisper) Activated]
Game Master ne kehte saath he ability ko active ker liya aur Aarav ke first thought ko read karne ki koshish karne laga. Lekin uski harkat daikh Aarav ne apne head ko halka tilt ker liya aur muskurane laga.
“Your Mom”
*Thump*
Aarav ke thought ko read karte he Game Master ki aankhe ek pal mein laal ho gayi. Uske reaction ko daikh ker Aarav bhi chaunk gaya. Usne itna bhi strong reaction expect nahi kiya tha.
Aarav: Your Mom...!
Aarav ne ek baar dobara uske javab ko muh se bhi keh diya. Ye sun ker Game Master aage badhne laga to Malphas ne usko beech mein he rok diya.
Malphas: Next Question...!
[The answer has been verified as true!]
[Corpse has answered both questions truthfully!]
[Corpse may now ask one question to the Game Master, which must be answered truthfully]
[The Game Master position has switched]
[Corpse is now the Game Master for the final question]
[As per the rules, Corpse is allowed to use the ability he selected before the game started]
Game Master (Breath): Fuuuu ~ Huh...!
Game Master Aarav ke last question ke liye ready ho gaya. Usko ab sirf ek javab dena tha aur wo uske baad Game khatam ker sakta tha.
Usko regret tha ke wo Aarav ko hara nahi saka tha. Lekin uske baad bhi usne kuch bhi ab tak khoya nahi tha. Lekin usne Aarav ki taraf daikha to uske andar dobara khauf janam lene laga.
Aarav ke chehre per ek katilana muskurahat saji huwi thi aur wo Game Master ko aise daikh raha tha jaise ek bhediya uske shikar ko daikhta tha.
[Analyzing target's mental state...]
[Analysis Complete]
[Target Status: Exhausted]
[Target’s mental defenses: Weak]
[Guard Status: Lowered]
[All conditions for ability (Mnemosyne's Gaze) have been met]
[Ability (Mnemosyne's Gaze) Activated]
Aarav ne uski aankhen band ker li aur usne apni ability Mnemosyne's Gaze ko active ker liya. Aarav ke Game Master ko diye Dare se wo abhi bhi bohat exhaust tha aur ab tak Aarav ke usko mock karne se uski mental strength bhi kam ho gayi thi.
Ye he mauka tha Aarav ke paas uske mind mein ghusne ke liye. Aarav ko aankhen band kiye daikh ker Game Master thoda hairan huwa. Lekin uske kuch samajh ata usse pehle he Aarav ne uski aankhon ko khol liya.
Lekin ab Aarav ke chehre per kuch alag he tarha ke expressions the. Disgusted, Shocked aur happy ek saath Aarav ke chehre per bohat se expressions the. Lekin sab ke baad Aarav ke chehre per dobara ek muskurahat thi.
Aarav (Grin): You filthy little creep! Did you really enjoyed fucking your own mother?
[Corpse has asked his question to the Game Master]
*Ba-dump-Ba-dump*
Ek pal mein Game Master ke dil dhadkane badhne lagi aur uske chehre ki rang udne lage. Usse uske khud ke kaano per vishwas nahi ho raha tha. Lekin Aarav ke chehre ki muskurahat se uske sharir aur bhi kaanp raha tha.
Game Master (Trembling): Y-Ye kya keh rahe ho? Y-Ye kab huwa?
Aarav: Come on, Stop pretending and tell me! How did it feel? Did she scream? Did she beg you to stop?
Game Master (shaking, breaking down)! Please...! stop...!
Game Master khud ko mushkil se control ker raha tha. Uski nazre uske aas-paas khade huwe sab logo ki taraf daikh rahi thi. Sab log usko ab ghin ki nazron se daikh rahe the.
Aarav (mockingly): Stop? But I’m just getting started! (leans in closer) Tell me, how did it feel to screw the very hole you came from?
Game Master (Scream): I said, Stoopppp!
*Bang*
*Bang*
*Bang*
*Clank*
Game Master ne kehte huwe gun ko uthaya aur Aarav ko shoot ker diya. Lekin Aarav ne ek dagger nikal ker uski Bullet ko beech se kaat diya.
Game Master ek baar dobara shoot karne laga to unke beech Malphas aa gaya.
Malphas: Game Master? *Scoff* Disappointed...!
[The Game Master has failed to provide a truthful answer]
[The Game Master attempted to harm Corpse during the challenge]
[Violation Detected: The Game Master has lost]
[Penalty: The Game Master will now Die.]
[The Carnival shows no mercy to those who break its rules]
