IMMORTAL BONE TEST — 2

With the sight in front of them, everybody started whispering and talking to each other, and it became so loud that soldiers who were standing there for the protection and security propose, were asked to calm everybody down and stop them from talking. It took a little time, but because they had to maintain discipline so, they had no choice but to calm down. Still, not everybody was quiet, but still it was better than before. Ajay came down from the stage with an expressionless face, looking like he didn't care about anything. Since everybody was silent by now, the program restarted with the first member of the Southern Kingdom, who was from the royal family, one and only the most beloved third princess of the Southern Kingdom, Kirti. And to everyone's surprise, the mirror shined with the sign of the nature element. On seeing this view, people understood that this year was going to be the most major year because two people with major elements having immortal bones had been found. From far away, the king of the Southern Kingdom, the great overlord king Santosh, looked very happy as he got the Santosh he wanted. 

(Santosh --- Satisfaction; Happiness.)

Next was Meghana's turn. Seeing it, people were very shocked. According to the things that people of other countries heard from outside, the eldest daughter of the Southern Kingdom's King, the first princess, cannot cultivate. People thought that a person who cannot cultivate doesn't not have a right to stand in front of the mirror because it would be a waste of time. Although in other countries, more in the way of the African area, many people there do not have a high level of cultivation and are not very talented at cultivating. But they could still cultivate, whereas Meghana was not even able to do that. Many people wondered how even did she was allowed in the hall, but some people argued that every person who is above fifteen has a right to check their immortal bone whether she can cultivate or not, It does not matter, she has the right to go to the front of the mirror and nobody can control it. But now that she is going on the stage to check her immortal bone, whether you support her or not doesn't matter anymore, because you cannot stop meghana anymore. The people who were not satisfied with her coming here, were ready to laugh at her foolishness. At the moment, she climbed on the stage, and stood in the front of the mirror, to everyone's shock, the mirror shined with water element. People were left speechless. For them, it was more shocking than finding a person with a fire element as an elemental power. After all, this was the thing nobody had expected, and they were sure that Meghana also did not expected this from herself too, which is completely true. The king, who was standing far away, was quite surprised because this was a thing he never expected from her. But he was happy that at least people would not bully her anymore again. Meghana came down from the stage with an expressionless face, made people wonder that, why people with rare elementary power always have an expressionless face. After Meghana, no one was found with an immortal bone. At 9:00 p.m. the main ceremony was over, now only the feast was left, which was supposed to take place at 10:00 p.m.

----------------------------------

Just after the ceremony was over and people came out of the hall, everyone started gossiping about what happened inside the hall. There were two main hot topics of discussion, first one was the rare show of the fire element and second was Meghana's unusual show of her element and immortal bone. Nobody cared about that man from country x or about Kirti. Some people even forgot that other than Ajay, Meghana, and Kirti, there is another man who had been found with an immortal bone. Some people were happy about Meghana, some pitied on her as she has an extraordinary element with an immortal bone, but she cannot cultivate, but most of them were saying that she doesn't deserve to have it and should donate it to someone else who is more capable than her and can cultivate. When Kirti heard all these gossip she felt very sad and was heartbroken because she knew, that other than herself nobody really knew that Meghana was a victim of an unknown hate from an unknown person. But now Kirti was more worried about how she would help Meghana in concealing her poison thing, from their parents and relatives. Slowly everyone started moving to there inn where they were living, to get change and ready for the feast. In a corner of the palace, Kirti and Meghana were getting worried about how to hide Meghana's poison and in the other corner of the palace, Ajay was getting ready to leave with other juniors he came with. Other than being more mature than the people of his age, he was very disciplined and strict. But, the juniors who came with him were very fun-loving people and wanted to stay for the feast, instead of going back to the Gurukul. Ajay did not wanted to stay here because, he did not ask for the permission from his Guru to stay for the feast but, when his junior insisted on staying tonight, he had no option but to attend the feast. After all, he had promised to his Guru that he would protect all his juniors and, in order to complete his promise, he could not possibly leave them here alone on their own there, but once in a blue moon, he knew that it would be his biggest mistake that he had ever made.
