EVERYTHING HAS IT'S OWN VALUE IN HAND OF WHOSE IT WANT MOST BUT YOUR CAN NEVER FIND WITH ONLY HARD WORK
 YOU WANT TO BE LUCKY TO BE ONE WHO OBSERVED ALL CHANGE IN LIFE OF A COMMON PEOPLE
Karmic Odyssey: The Soulbound Trials

Sidharth always thought life was like a video game. You grind, level up, and win. That’s how he survived the real world—by treating it as just another game where intelligence, skill, and strategy decided everything.

But one ordinary evening, everything changes. A mysterious light engulfs him and his little sister, Diya, pulling them into an unfamiliar dimension. When Sidharth wakes up, he finds himself standing in an ancient arena, surrounded by beings unlike anything he has ever seen—some humanoid, others monstrous, and a few that don’t even seem real. A voice echoes from the sky, announcing the start of the Soulbound Trials.

The rules are simple: Survive. Grow stronger. Uncover the truth. But the more Sidharth fights, the more he realizes—this isn’t just a game. This is real, and losing means more than just death. It means erasing his very soul.

A Universe Where Karma is Law

In this world, every action has a consequence. Every soul carries a past. And every choice will determine the future. Here, karma isn’t just a belief—it’s a force that shapes reality itself. The stronger your karma, the greater your power.

But karma isn’t just about rewards. It remembers. It holds grudges. It never forgets. And for some reason, karma seems to recognize Sidharth, treating him not as a newcomer, but as someone who has been here before.

With each battle, fragments of forgotten memories start to surface—images of another life, another time, another him. A past self that may have made terrible mistakes. A past self that might be the reason he’s trapped here now.

The Trials, The Power, The Choice

To escape this endless cycle, Sidharth must master the three ultimate forces of existence:

Soul Power: The energy of past lives, memories, and spiritual will.

Physical Power: Strength, skill, and combat mastery—the body’s raw potential.

Spiritual Power: The ability to bend the laws of karma itself, manipulating fate and rewriting destiny.


But there’s a catch. The trials aren’t just about fighting. They test the very core of his soul.

Some will force him to relive his greatest regrets.
Some will make him choose between power and morality.
And some will ask him the hardest question of all—

If given the chance, would he change his past?

Enemies, Allies, and The Truth

Alongside him is Diya, his younger sister who, despite her mischievous and playful nature, seems strangely unfazed by the chaos around them. She knows more than she lets on. But why?

Then there are the others—warriors, scholars, and wanderers who have been stuck in these trials for centuries, even lifetimes. Some want to help. Some want to manipulate him. And some… want him dead.

At the center of it all is a hidden force, one that has been pulling the strings long before Sidharth ever arrived. A force that whispers in his mind, telling him:

“You’ve been here before. You’ve failed before. But this time… you must break the cycle.”

The Final Question

As Sidharth dives deeper into the mysteries of karma, reincarnation, and the true nature of existence, one thing becomes clear:

This isn’t just a test. It’s a second chance.

But does he even deserve it?

And more importantly…

Can he change his fate, or will he be trapped in this cosmic game forever?

Karmic Odyssey: The Soulbound Trials

Sidharth felt like he was floating in a vast ocean of energy. The swirling void around him pulsed with an unseen force, carrying echoes of whispers from the past and future. He closed his eyes, focusing on the power within him. The Soul Control orb had chosen him, and now he had to prove he was worthy of its power.

A familiar voice broke the silence. "Brother! Wake up!"

Sidharth's eyes shot open, and he found himself lying on the soft grass of the celestial field. Diya was kneeling beside him, her small hands shaking his shoulders.

"Diya… What happened?" he asked, his voice hoarse.

"You touched the glowing ball, and you suddenly fainted! I thought you broke yourself!" she pouted, crossing her arms.

Sidharth chuckled, ruffling her hair. "I'm fine, just… learning."

Acharya Vimal stood nearby, watching with a calm expression. "You have glimpsed the first step of Soul Control. It is not just about power, but understanding. Balance is key."

Sidharth sat up. "How do I control it?"

The Acharya smiled and waved his hand. In front of them, a holographic interface appeared, like something out of a futuristic video game. It showed three bars labeled Physical Strength, Spiritual Energy, and Soul Control.

Diya's eyes widened. "Brother, it's like an RPG! You have stats!"

Sidharth couldn't help but grin. "Yeah… But how do I level them up?"

Acharya Vimal pointed at the Soul Control bar. "Each action you take affects the balance of these forces. If you rely only on your physical strength, your soul weakens. If you focus only on the soul, your body may fail. You must train all three."

Sidharth stood up, rolling his shoulders. "Then let's begin."

The Acharya waved his hand again, and suddenly, the field transformed. They were now standing inside a floating temple, surrounded by glowing golden inscriptions. Strange floating creatures hovered in the air, watching him.

"Your first task is simple," Acharya Vimal said. "Balance your energy while facing an opponent."

From the shadows, a figure stepped forward. It looked exactly like Sidharth.

Diya gasped. "It's you! But… creepier!"

The doppelgänger smirked and cracked his knuckles. "I am the reflection of your imbalance. Defeat me, and you will learn control. Fail, and you will be trapped in this loop forever."

Sidharth's heart pounded. This was no ordinary battle. He had to fight himself.

The clone lunged at him, and Sidharth dodged just in time. He swung his fist, but the doppelgänger blocked it effortlessly. Every move he made was countered.

"You rely too much on instinct," Acharya Vimal observed. "Use your soul. Feel your actions before they happen."

Sidharth took a deep breath. He closed his eyes for just a second—then he felt it. The energy of his soul pulsed within him, guiding his movements. When the clone attacked again, Sidharth moved before the strike even came, dodging smoothly.

His hands glowed faintly with a golden light. When he struck this time, the impact sent the clone skidding backward.

Diya cheered. "That's my brother!"

The doppelgänger grinned, then nodded. "You understand now."

With that, it faded into golden dust, absorbed into Sidharth's body. A notification screen appeared in front of him, just like in a game:

[Skill Unlocked: Beginner Soul Control]

Sidharth exhaled, feeling a newfound sense of power and balance within him. This was just the beginning.

Acharya Vimal smiled. "Well done. But your journey has only begun."

Sidharth smirked, cracking his knuckles. "Then let's keep going."
