The Academy

After reaching Hicabues city Shiddharth takes Himanshu in a corner and says.

" Let's trick her and go our way." He says.

" You really don't know anything. She has the Eye of Eagle skill, and she can find us wherever we go." Himanshu explains to him.

" And we are not that strong that we can win him." He continued.

And after hearing this they decided to let her follow them. Soon they reached a mercenary office.

" I want admissions a form of Yejaeta Academy." Himanshu asks.

" You are too old to apply." The man standing infront of him says.

" It's not for me my younger brother is here to apply." He says and pushes Shiddharth ahead.

Shiddharth was shocked by what Himanshu was saying they were here to find a girl and escort him out of Baven Land. But this was not Baven land they were in Uthaiyes County. And they needed to go to Baven land. But here, Himanshu was admitting him in Yejaeta Academy.

" Why am I going to the academy. Isn't our mission to escort a girl." He finally asks him.

" It's part of the plan. Stay here and soon I will contact you, till then try to meld in this situation." Himanshu says and fills the form.

When Venya hears that Shiddharth will be staying in the academy, she contacts someone.

" Arrange this..... And that..." She says to the other person.

' we will meet soon.' she mumbles and then leaves that place.

" We are done with the forms now let's go and buy a decent sword for you to use in the Academy." Himanshu says, then they both come out from the building and search for Venya but after looking for a while they still couldn't find her.

" It's good that she left on her own." Himanshu says then they both go to a Blacksmith to forge a better sword.

In a Smithy.....

" What do you need." A man asks them.

" We are looking for a sword appropriate for his use." Himanshu says and puts 10 golds pouch infront of him.

" Ok here are some samples. And if you want a personally forged sword you need to pay 50 golds." He says.

" No we don't need that high quality weapon. Just give us a normal one." Himanshu says as he hears 50 gold.

" What is that." Shiddharth asks while pointing at a half broken dagger.

" That was one of our masterpieces but after it broke it's just lying around here and there." He responds.

" How much for that." He asks.

" Not much just 183 gold." The man says.

" 150 gold." Shiddharth says.

" Ok done." He says and then sells that half broken dagger to him.

" What why did you buyed that broken dagger. You can clearly see that this guy is lying. It's not a masterpiece it's a defected one. He just robbed you. Return it right now." Himanshu warns Shiddharth as he saw him buying a pld dagger.

" Sorry sir if the item is sold it cannot be exchanged or replaced." The man says.

Then Himanshu angrily takes one sword and they both leave that shimty building.

"You shouldn't just buy those thing you see on road. You are still not that young to use money properly so whenever you need something tell me I will help you in that." Himanshu gives lecture on business.

And then after spending sometime together he parts away from him.

Next day at the college selection...

" Everyone silence." A loud voice echoed around the field.

" Today we are here to select the genius out geniuses. You all are here because of special talents but we need the man ne who knows how to use their talent." The voice says.

" We will be having 5 stages in the selection ceremony and if you are able to pass 4 of them then only you can get selected." The voice continued.

And then an old man comes infront of everyone. And then he opens a array and a heavy pressure is applied on the ground.

" You all need to withstand these pressures for 5 min this is 1st round." The old man says and starts looking at the students, in a hope that he will find someone who can inherit his will and sword path. And in that he spotted 2 people, one was Shiddharth and the other was Zika.

After 5 min almost every fall on ground as they were not able to withstand this much pressure. And a few people passed but Shiddharth was not in one of them.

" Now. if you fail this stage again then you will be disqualified." The old man said.

Then he took all the participants near a big stone.

" You all need to place your hand here and if you can stand properly after 2 min then you will paas to this stage.' the old man says.

And many people came forward and placed their hands on the stone but they weren't even able to last more than 10 secs. Only a few people with strong mentality were able to pass. Even those who passed the previous stage failed in this. They had power but weren't that mentally strong to withstand this.

Now it was time for Shiddharth turn.

He goes near the stone and places his hand it but suddenly he found himself in a field filled with green grass and a man was standing while facing his back to Shiddharth. And when he turns Shiddharth was surprised.

" You, what are you doing here." He asks him.
