First Day

After checking the system, Vijay realized it was time to go outside to watch the new world.

Then Vijay opened the door of his small house. The house belongs to his parents, but now Vijay has inherited it. The area in which Vijay lives is not very developed, but it is better than a village. At a distance of 5 km, there is a very big market named Krishna Market, which is very large and where many trades of clothes, spices, vegetables, fruits, etc. take place.

When Vijay opens the door of his house, he sees that he has come to a different place outside, which is a completely new experience for him.

There were about 6-8 more houses around Vijay's house. They are rented to workers from other states, and some are occupied by their real owners.

When Vijay checks his memory, he realizes he is not very familiar with them, except for one family and the tea shop owner who operates his tea stall at some distance.

Vijay decided to go to the tea shop first and then started walking toward it. When Vijay was walking, someone called him.

"Hey Vijay, where have you been for so many days?"

Vijay turned back and saw a girl around 17 years old. Vijay then checked his memory and recalled she was Anjali from his neighborhood, and he had only interacted with her family.

Vijay said, "I have been resting at home due to fever, but I am fine now, so I walked out."

Anjali said, "Oh, Daddy invited you to lunch this afternoon. Okay."

Vijay said, "Okay, I will be there."

Then Vijay started walking toward the tea house.

When the tea owner saw Vijay, he said, "Oh Vijay, how are you? Come and have some tea."

Vijay said, "I am fine, thank you."

Vijay took the tea and started drinking. There were 4-6 men also drinking tea and talking.

One of them said, "Have you heard that the farmer Raju has had all his land occupied by the British because he doesn't have money for taxes? This year, the rain has not been good for crops. Also, his only family, his wife, was also kidnapped by that bastard British officer, Hussel Dey, and raped and killed. I have heard Raju wants to sell his house for 50 rupees and wants to give a bounty on that British officer. But who has the guts to kill that officer?"

Another man said, "These Britishers are very brutal and cruel; they think of us like dogs."

Vijay listened to this and thought he had some impression of Raju. Sometimes he had purchased grains from him. Raju wants to give a bounty on that officer. I can take it, and I also have a powerful body. I also have a faceless mask; I can dress up like a British officer and can kill him at night in his house.

Then Vijay gave 5 paisa (0.05 rupees) to the tea shop owner and started looking around the area to get familiar with it. The area in which Vijay lives is named Hanumanpur.

After traveling for about 30 minutes, Vijay started walking toward Anjali's house for afternoon lunch.

Vijay knocked on Anjali's house door 4-5 times and heard a shout from inside that she was coming.

Anjali opened the door and said loudly to her mom in the kitchen, "Mom, Vijay is already here."

Anjali's mom's voice came, "Invite him in the house and give him water to drink."

Vijay sat down on a wooden chair and started drinking water while Anjali went to the kitchen to help her mom.

Suddenly, a 40-50-year-old man came into Vijay's memory; he is Anjali's father, Mohan Lal.

Mohan Lal said, "Anjali says you have a fever. How are you?"

Vijay said, "I am fine now."

Mohan Lal said, "Then okay." He shouted toward the kitchen and asked how much time it would take for the food.

A voice came, "Oh ho, I am coming."

Then Anjali, holding plates, came in with a woman around 30-40 years old. She is Anjali's mother, Janaki Devi.

After that, they started eating.

Mohan Lal said to Vijay, "What have you thought about marriage?"

Vijay said, "I have not thought about this until now, but if I find a good girl, then I will marry her."

Mohan Lal said, "How about Anjali then?"

Vijay coughed 4-5 times. Anjali gave him water and ran back to the kitchen.

Vijay said, "What?! Marrying Anjali?"
