Monarch's Thinking
[ But Brother, He is too weak. ]
A sudden change in demeanor was evident in the voice as it engaged in conversation, seemingly with someone older, likely his big brother. They were arguing about Raj. After a while, the focus shifted back to Raj.
[ Sorry about the previous disrespect, but we Asura only respect power, that's the fact.]
The tone became more respectful, the previous demeanor gone.
Suddenly, another voice echoed in Raj's head.
[ Raj, for now, we will help you by hiding you from destiny, but you need to become stronger as soon as possible. You must be more deceitful than anyone else because of those deceitful gods we have suffered a lot. The reason you are here is simple: we want to hide you from the goddess of destiny. If we hadn't intervened, you would be dead soon. ]
Raj was incredibly confused at this moment, with countless questions swirling in his mind. Who were these voices? They seemed like brothers, given how they conversed with one another. Why were they helping him, and what did they want from him? Moreover, why did the tone change when they spoke to each other, and why couldn't he hear their conversation? Everything seemed so perplexing.
Before he could voice his inquiries, one of the voices interjected,
[ Raj, we don't have time for conversation. Destiny is already searching for us. If we're caught, all the gods will be alerted, and they'll sabotage our plan.]
Raj was interrupted, and a glow of light approached him, integrating into his soul and instantly calming him. His mind cleared, and his thoughts became more focused.
[ We've hidden you from destiny for now. You won't be discovered. Your task is to collect those Destiny points to build your power. We've also unlocked skills to aid you in your pursuit of power. But... ]
[ Brother, now... ]
[ Okay... ]
Another voice interrupted, sounding slightly panicked. Then, abruptly, the voices did something that plunged Raj into a black hole.
Raj suddenly jolted awake from unconsciousness, his surroundings slowly coming into focus. He realized he was still in the same position as before, with guards stationed all around him. A wave of confusion washed over him as he pondered how much time had passed since he lost consciousness. It felt like months, yet when he checked his mobile phone for the date and time, he was shocked to see that it remained the same as before. It was as if he had only been unconscious for a few seconds, leaving him bewildered and disoriented.
Suspecting it might have been a dream, he decided to check his status window since he felt a difference in his thinking. Now, his thoughts were clearer, a change he hadn't noticed before. He also began to wonder if destiny had influenced his state of mind.
System, show me status window:

Active Skill: Shooting ( level 3 ), Analysis ( level 3 ), Fighting ( level 2 )
Passive Skill : Monarch's Thinking ( level 1 )

Looks like it wasn't a dream; it really happened. My intelligence and luck have increased, and there's also a new passive skill added. What is this 'Monarch Thinking'? I need to check.
Monarch's Thinking: This passive skill enhances critical thinking abilities, allowing the user's to find the perfect solution to any problem. It promotes clear-mindedness and enables calm, rational thinking even in the face of adversity.
It's indeed an unexpected gain, but the question remains: why did the Asuras assist me? I'm at a loss for an answer right now. Nonetheless, this skill could shield me from the influence of destiny. The Asuras must have made a significant investment in this. Maybe that's why my intelligence stats have increased.
Raj checked his notifications and found a task related to the Destined Child, Daya:
[ Task: Steal Destiny points from Daya
Reward: +3 Strength stats, +2 Speed stats, +2 Charm stats ]
Considering Saanvi's importance as the movie's heroine, there's likely a task related to her that involves stealing destiny points. I must meet her before Daya takes any action.
Raj instructed his associates to collect all evidence and record Daya's corruption on camera. While Raj could easily dismiss him using his political influence, he opted to tarnish Daya's reputation and expose him as a corrupt police officer, especially to Saanvi.
Raj enters the location of the "Pet Cross" establishment into his car's navigation system. This is where Saanvi works as a member of the Blue Cross, an animal welfare organization. With determination, he sets off towards her location.
While driving, Raj spots a small, white puppy with an injured right leg on the roadside. The puppy is barking at a group of kids and another dog, clearly in distress. Raj pulls over, feeling that his increased luck value might be at play here. Though his original plan was to get a pet from a store to interact with Saanvi, this encounter presents a more immediate opportunity. He approaches the puppy and gently picks him up. The puppy, scared and weak from hunger, doesn't resist. Raj cradles the puppy in his arms and drives towards Saanvi's location. Raj knew that Saanvi would definitely help him after seeing the condition of the puppy.
Taking the puppy in his arms, Raj enters "Pet Cross." Upon entering, he notices the bustling environment filled with various animals. There are dogs of all breeds and sizes, there were also horse in a nearby area, ducks waddling around, and even a cow calmly grazing in a designated section.
Saanvi is in the middle of the activity, gently petting a group of dogs. She exudes kindness and attentiveness, her soft smile and gentle demeanor making it clear she has a genuine love for animals. Her hair is pulled back into a loose ponytail, and she's dressed in casual, practical clothing suitable for working with animals.
As Raj approaches, Saanvi notices the puppy in his arms. Her expression shifts to one of concern and empathy, and she immediately rises to her feet, making her way over to Raj with a determined yet compassionate look in her eyes.
