As the sun is raising on the eastern horizon with its bright rays falling on the villagers as they are busy with their preparations for the day and moving zig zag manner as they are not a soldiers, who are moving for their battles. In the middle of the village under the banyan trees there is a stage made of rocks and stones, under the stage there are little kids are starring at the stage as if waiting for someone and the villagers are also watching at the stage as they are doing their own work with worried look on their faces.

"what happened to viki he isn't here today?" asked a middle aged man with man who is moving right next to him.

"I am also don't know about it, may be his mother didn't let him out today" stated his thoughts.

"looks like we don't be able to see his face before going to work" sighed.

as everyone is speculating, the kids who are sitting below the stage are becoming more and more sad as remembering about yesterdays matter. they didn't thought this would happen due to their curiosity. as they are looking at each other and felt like crying.

"why don't we go to viki's house and check on him" suggested chanakya.

"I also think that will be nice, as we don't know what is going on there" yudhi added to chanakya.

" then, what are we waiting for, lets go" said bheem as he get on his feet.

everyone is looked at each other and shake their head in unison and started to stand on their feet and ready to move towards viki's house. after moving some turns they arrived at viki's house. everyone looked at each other as if relying on something only to get more depress as seeing fear on each others eyes. as everyone is deeply fear of viki's mother.

at last everyone gathered their courage and move towards water container as without getting cleaned they would definitely thrown out and chased throughout the entire village. one after other everyone cleaned themselves moved into house one after other with fearful expression.

if we rewind time back to one hour before the current timeline.

viki who is unconsciously sleeping for eighteen hours and his mother is nursing him throughout the entire night and his father is sitting beside while thinking of something.

"mmh.." with slight morning moan viki wake from his unconscious state as if got rid of his fatigue.

"viki, how are you feeling now, is everything is okay, are you feeling pain anywhere, tell to mother, she will take care of it" said sumithra with concerned voice as checking on viki's body from head to toe.

"tell me viki if you felling unwell anywhere" asked chandraguptha from side with same concerned voice.

"you shut up, you are the reason for him to be like this" sumithra glared at her husband.

"yes, yes, you check on him thoroughly and I will watch from side" said with quiet tone.

"mother I'm completely fine and I do feel even more energetic as if I got something" said viki with full of surprise.

after hearing what viki said, both husband and wife duo looked at each other with unbelievable look in their eyes and scanned viki's body and nod at each others.

"mother, what happened is there something wrong with me" asked viki when he see his mother and father are showing expressions which he is unable to comprehend.

"no, sweety there is nothing wrong with you as for other details we will tell you about them in the future, didn't you say you want to go out of here, if you follow your father's training without any complaint, I will let you go wherever you want to go" said sumithra with bright smile full of joy and happiness.

viki don't quite understand why his mother is so happy about as she said letting him go outside of the mountains, as she is full oppose at this idea.

" then what about my friends, can they also come with me" asked viki with concern, as he is fully connected with them.

"they can also come with you, if they were able to endure my training" said viki's father from side.

"really! that is good, then I will go and let them know about it" said viki excitingly.

as viki was about to go, his father stopped him and said that" if they come within two hours, I will let them train with you or I won't let them near you".

"why is that father, why do they have to come, they will be even more fearful of mother , how can they come to our house" said viki worriedly.

"that is why, they have to come this is test for their friendship towards you, if they can't even face this much difficulty how can I leave my son in their hands and how can trust their friendship towards you and what if they faced even more difficult problem and they abound you, it may cost your life" said chandhragupta with a serious voice.

"did you just said that I am a problem" sumithra glared at her husband.

agreed to his father as he see the serious expression on his fathers face.

the family waited for the kids arrival.

now coming back to the current timeline.

as they all cleaned themselves, kids started to move into the house with fearful expression on their faces.

as they entered into the house they were greeted by smiling face of viki moving towards them.

after everyone are inside the house they seated on the floor along with viki sitting with them as they facing viki's parents, as they are seated on the stone chairs, which were made by chandhragupta.

"listen carefully kids, I want to send viki outside of these mountains after making him fully prepared, but he said that he wanted go along with you guys, so tell me do you want do. do you want go with him or not" said chandraguptha.

everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, as viki's mother acted like that yesterday but now her husband is asking them about going out with viki, as everyone looked towards sumithra.

"you don't need to think about it, she is also agreed to it" said chandhragupta with reassuring tone.

"what we need to do for going along with viki" asked chanakya with low voice.

"you need to practice building your strength and stamina as you are going to walk in the path of cultivation" said chandhraguptha.

"cultivation? what is it?" bheem stated his doubt.
