Chapter 8: "Jungle Mein Darr, Dosti Aur Dhokha"
---
Dense Forest of Eldergloom — 4:17 PM
Gehra jungle... Har taraf sirf sannata, hawa mein kuch ajeeb sa vibration... jaise koi badi aafat chhupi ho. Is jungle mein B-1 class ko ek "rare magical beast" ka trace mila tha — ek training mission ke roop mein. Par kisi ne bhi yeh nahi socha tha ki woh mission... maut ke maidan mein badal jaayega.
Iris Valtherion, apne team ke sath ek glowing crystal ke pass khadi thi.
"Yeh mana surge abnormal hai," usne kaha, brow furrowed.
Miss Eleanor — unki professor — serious thi. "Stay alert. Kuch toh galat hai..."
Tabhi jungle ka ek hissa hila. Ek grotesque-looking demon, jiska rang kali roshni jaisa tha, saamne aaya — A-Rank demon. Yeh koi common monster nahi tha.
"Formation!" Eleanor chillayi. B-1 class ne apne weapons nikale.
But the demon was fast... merciless... brutal.
Ek hi slash mein, Professor Eleanor ne teen students ko shield kiya — unka kandha se leke kamar tak cut gaya. Khoon ki dhaar ne pedon ko rang diya.
"MISS ELEANOR!!" Iris ne cheekha.
Tab demon ne Iris par hamla kiya — viciously — but ek student, Klaus, beech mein aa gaya.
Ek sharp sound... aur Klaus ka gala almost cut gaya.
Iris ki aankhon mein aansu... "WHY?!"
"Kyunki... tu important hai…" Klaus ke last shabd the.

At the Same Time — A-3 Squad
Hayashi, Reinhardt aur Marianne ne apne horses jungle ke andar mod diye.
Reinhardt: "Hayashi, kya tu sure hai ki Iris vahan hai?"
Hayashi (cold and sharp): "Uske energy signature ko main feel kar sakta hoon. I know my sister."
Marianne: "Itna bada demon... academy ne kaise miss kar diya?"
Hayashi: "Kisi ne chhupaya hai."
(Voice low, eyes sharp — mastermind mode active.)
Jab A-3 ke students ne Hayashi, Reinhardt, aur Marianne ko dekha, toh mixed reaction aaya. Kuch impressed, kuch jealous.
Prince Avelis Leonhart, already leading the A-3 group, turned.
"Hayashi? Tum yahan? Why?"
Hayashi walked up, confidently.
"Iris is with B-1. I'm not letting her die."
Avelis stiffened. His jaw clenched.
Then nodded, "Then let's go."

Meanwhile, Demon Battle Intensifies
Miss Eleanor, wounded badly, ne abhi bhi fight nahi chhoda tha. Usne ek barrier spell activate kiya.
"I won't let my students die!"
But demon smart tha. Usne ek B-1 student ko grab kiya — aur turant infect kar diya.
Within seconds... woh student bhi ek chhota demon ban gaya — Demon Conversion.
Iris: "They... they can multiply?!"
---
Just Then... Hayashi Arrives
Trees explode. A gust of magic tears through the leaves.
Hayashi Leonhart steps in like a storm.
"Back off, beast."
Ek cold glare... ek divine aura.
Reinhardt ne sword nikala, "Let's finish this."
Marianne activated her mana shield, "No more sacrifices."

Cliffhanger Ending: The Twist
Jab demon ne Hayashi ke taraf dekha, toh woh ruk gaya...
Jaise usse pehchaan gaya ho.
Hayashi's eyes narrowed, "Why… do you know me?"
Suddenly, demon ki body vibrate hone lagi... and ek voice nikli...
"We are watching you… Chosen One…"
Sab shocked. Marianne: "Did… did that thing just speak inside our minds?"
Avelis ka chehra pale ho gaya. "This... this isn't a normal demon... it's linked to something else."
Hayashi ka dimag turant samjha —
"This wasn't random. This was a test… and we've all been thrown into a bigger game."
