RakhtaBhushan (Blood Ornament)- The Epic Saga

[I will continue this story; new chapters will be released soon. Just taking a short break to prepare for an upcoming writing contest.] God King Arya defeats Asura Yaman. Two hundred years later, Yaman reincarnates as Prince Surya of Rakhtaprastha. Once Surya comes of age, flashbacks from his past life erode his mind. He seeks help from the Tantric guild, where his path entwines with black-clad Vidyut, his long time rival. Hardened by the cruelties of life, Vidyut embraces the dark art of Tantra, for which he is both rejected and coveted by the people of the Five Kingdoms. Meanwhile, the Kingdom of Rakhtaprastha faces political turmoil and rival kingdoms, while the animosity between God King Arya and Yaman/Surya's supporter, Goddess Dimuka, spills into the human world. Read to find out if Surya and Vidyut’s love can endure the wrath of forces, both good and evil. ******************************************************************** Chapter 30 Excerpt: Vidyut came and stood five steps before Surya, his eyes surveying the prince as if he was searching for something he had lost, his gaze holding and letting go every few seconds. Surya, in turn, resolutely stared at Vidyut’s eyes, and certainly not at his unrobed chest that was now glowing with a fine sheen of sweat. Vidyut’s eyes found Surya’s as if he had caught him thieving. "If you look to learn the secrets of my trade, a word is enough, my prince. It would be my honor to teach you a thing or two about how sharp weapons work." Vidyut gave Surya a wicked look, gesturing him to the center of the terrace in an invitation to a friendly duel. ******************************************************************** *It is based on Indian mythology, specifically Hindu mythology. But it is an original fantasy and focus is character arcs. **It has BL/Gay content. Most Surya-Vidyut interactions are in the chapters marked Surya or Vidyut. The romance in this story is slowburn. Chapters with smut will be marked so in future. ***Secondary couple is Puru-Harihar. Puru is still straight in this book. They will become a couple in the sequel. Harihar is gay and introduced in chapter 117: Hunt for A Demon’s Treasure- Part 4 **Daily Chapter Release/Surprise Mass Release** Cover Art is kindly done by a really really great artist, Nicoy Gueverra.

Prologue 1: God And The Asura

**200 years before the main events of the story**

The cataclysmic sky swirled with clouds, dark and sinister. King of the Gods, Arya, looked solemnly at Yaman, the dark demon with two shiny fangs. Behind him, fire burned bright red, spreading into the enormous pit that surrounded the two heavenly beings. Other gods stood audience, their weapons drawn, watching tensely through the roaring flames. The fiery pit separated them from the large fighting ground where God King Arya was taking down the Agni Asura Yaman.

"You have no place in the realms of the manifest or unmanifest." The God spoke in an ominous voice. "You will leave, Yaman." Arya's face was calm and serene, but his eyes blazed.

The demon broke into a hysterical laughter. "You want me to leave? Why? Are you so afraid of my powers?"

"Afraid?" Arya mocked Yaman. "I made you. I gave you the powers you boast of. But you have wandered too far from your path. It is time you left."

"Not all paths should lead to you, God King Arya. I have broken a new path, and you worry that humans will be wise to your deceit and follow me instead."

"My deceit?" Now, it was the god king's turn to laugh. "Who massacred thousands at the Nalini riverbank? Who scourged the east city with the great affliction? You have used force and falsehoods to corrupt people and commit great sins. Today, your depravity ends. If you do not leave, I will crush you with my own two hands."

"Come then, what are you waiting for, God King?"

The two deities drew their weapons, the god king wielding his longsword and the fire demon wielding his mace. They charged towards each other, leaping up in the air. The gods below looked up to see the two figures soar high, tearing through the smoke. The loud clang of their weapon caused ripples that sent the other gods hurtling through the air and enveloped the two rivals in a fiery red light.

After ten days and ten nights of relentless battle, God King Arya, delivered the fatal blow, throwing the fire demon off the edge of the precipice and into the depths of the eternal hellfire.

The demon's form vaporized into smoke long before it hit the bottom of the pit. Only one tear remained that disappeared into the fiery abyss.
