Man with bamboo hat

In the 3 days Shiva didn't just rest in the room but he went to the only local physician the village had. He had learnt the art of healing from his mother who was well known in the sun Dynasty for her work. He helped the physician in treatment of the sick people. His other motive was to test the practical use of transfer of life energy. He tried in many peoples , in starting phase it was not easy, he focused his mind and touched the forehead of a patients and had to direct his life energy to the patients through the power of his mind. After few failures he succeeded at last. And the results he got were very thought provoking, by transferring some of life energy into the patients their compliance with the medicine increased dramatically and the recovery speed was at least double.

He thought,"If I can master this technique fully I can heal a person completely with life energy itself."

And as he treated the patients he also discovered that his body's ability to recover, heal and regenerate had also improved and was increasing day by day.

Physician even thought that the boy came from the family of healers.

Even though shiva was young , his knowledge of healing was not weak so he also gave some advice to the village's physician that his mother had given him.

In those 3 days Shiva was not just a boy that was staying in the village but after witnessing his skills, his status had increased to one of esteemed guest and the respect that villagers showed him was genuine.

3 days passed....

It was the day when army people were supposed to come. Village had been cleaned thoroughly, they also put some decorations, and the delicious food was prepared for the upcoming guest. Army would compensate them later, it was the rule that Danteluri Dynasty followed.

Just outside the village a large stage was prepared for any sparring that army desired. Rooms were also cleaned and prepared in advance.

It didn't look like the army recruitment day but looked like a festival.

In reality the villagers were very concerned about the recruitment. If someone was chosen from their village then it would be a glory to village and village would also get gifts from the Dynasty. Number of people chosen determined the reward. The life in army was much better than village and they could stay in the capital also.

Everyone came out from the houses to welcome the guests.

100 horses approached the village ,each one had an elite above them. Elites wore an expensive golden armor, even the horses were fully armored. In the front was a black horse, on which sat a robust man. He had a big iron chain wrapped around his chest. He gave an fierce aura like he had gone through many battles. He was grandmaster Agrim but the most eye catching was the golden chariot behind him. It had 5 horses, each white coloured and clad in golden armor. There were only 2 person on the chariot. One was a charioteer, he was a short statured man and was wearing a yellow robe. He ears looked slightly abnormal. But he looked like a simple charioteer in the eyes of villagers.

Other person was a chubby man wearning a blue robe carved with meticulous artwork giving it a very noble feel. His body was covered with accessories made of diamond and gold. He had 8 diamond rings, one in each finger except the thumb. He was wearing a bamboo hat above and his face was covered by a mask through which only the fierce eyes could be seen.

Villagers knew that every time only 5-10 people used to come but this time was different.

They were also confused about the change and the identity of man in blue robe.

Grandmaster Agrim came and slightly nodded towards the villagers when they bowed but his eyes noticed one boy that didn't bow. He was slightly irritated at first then he thought," He is just a boy."
