Snehwal said,
"Don't doubt for no reason. Everything is fine. If it keeps going like this, I will die. I have been facing trouble here for many days — work, work and only work… no rest, no peace.
I am not going anywhere. I will just sleep."
Lily's fair face turned a little red. She said softly,
"Listen to me, something is wrong here. Why don't you understand? Really, something is wrong, understand."
Snehwal patted the bed and said,
"Come, sleep. Don't be so afraid."
Lily walked inside with pride and said,
"I have seen this world for many years. You are still nothing in this matter. Why don't you understand? If I get caught, what will happen?"
Snehwal quickly sat up and asked,
"What will happen?"
Lily blew air from her nose and laughed a little,
"You don't understand even this? In this world, the strong can do anything.
I love you, that is why I don't do what others do. The host's job is to keep the Yakshini happy, and at the end give her power, and be her unbreakable partner.
You already saw this.
But I will never do it — this is Lily's promise."
Snehwal's heart felt full, like someone told him loving words for the first time.
He stood and said sadly,
"I was always happy because I had a reason. But now I am here, so see… one day I will rule this land of consciousness."
Lily laughed and said,
"You speak well. But your words give me confidence.
Hearing this, I am sure I made no mistake in choosing my host."
Just then, a sound came in the palace.
Lily and Snehwal's ears stood up.
It felt like the sound of fire, flapping in the air.
Lily stepped outside the room slowly. Snehwal followed behind.
Lily put her finger on her lips and said "Shhh," showing Snehal that even one mistake could be deadly.
Suddenly, the fire woman appeared. She ran and hugged Lily. Lily's face also shone with joy.
"Sister Ignisa! You? I never thought you would be here," Lili said with happiness.
Ignisa said, "Sister, you are alive."
She looked at Lily and hugged her again.
Lily and Ignisa both became emotional.
Snehwal thought in his mind,
"I should not be here. This is love of two long-lost sisters."
Snehwal slowly walked back into the room, happy that he could now sleep.
But Lily turned and said,
"Snehwal, come here."
Snehwal came near and stood.
Lily said,
"This is my host, Snehwal."
Ignisa was a little shocked, but smiled and said,
"I am Ignisa… queen of this Inferna Palace and Lily's elder sister."
Then she looked at Lily.
Snehwal bowed with respect and said,
"You both sisters talk, I will go to sleep."
He left from there.
Ignisa looked at Lily and said,
"Lily, are you now a Yakshini, since you called him your host? He is still very young… maybe two or four years younger than you. Did I not tell you? This is a game where with power, there is also pain."
Lily laughed lightly and ignored her words,
"It is a long story. This legacy just came to me.
Forget me, tell me — how are you in this city?"
Ignisa laughed and said,
"I was also lucky like you, so I reached here. Come, let us sit and talk."
Both of them went up to the top chamber of the palace.
On the other side, before Shon Yakshini, Arjun and Lela bowed down.
Shon Yakshini sat in anger at night in her palace.
She sat on a flying seat, made of green energy.
A little far, her five guards and Surya were standing.
In front of them, Arjun and Lela were on their knees.
They had come to ask for help, while Shon's eyes were fixed on them.
"We saw her enter our area," they said.
"She must be in the sixth stage."
Arjun told everything with clenched teeth.
"Their aim was not clear.
Surely they came to the north for the Divine Water."
Hearing this, Shon Yakshini shouted in anger,
"Divine Water!"
She stood up, produced her staff, and struck the ground with its base. Then, in a deep voice, she said—
"It appears once in a thousand years, and I will fight to the death over it. Lily has no courage. I will fight the entire Conscious Land, no matter who it is."
"The divine water has appeared in our area, and it belongs to me alone."
"They do not know their place. I will see this matter myself."
Hearing this, Arjun and Lela bent their heads and smiled, as if their arrow had hit the right mark.
