Bab 36: Second Historical Event-I
Unaware of what was happening around in the real world, people in the game started to prepare for the upcoming historical event.
Adventure game mode players were allowed to watch the historical quest unfold before them. But they were not allowed to participate in the historical quest (At least not for now…!).
3 days passed in the blink of an eye as all the lord game mode players started to sign in for the historical event.
In his territory, Aarv looked at the screen in front of him…
[ Second Historical Quest: Untold story of Chittod will begin in 5 minutes…]
[ As you are a Baron, you are allowed to take 100 guards with you…]
[ Please select your guards…]
As the message was delivered, Aarv got a new selection screen in front of him. He quickly selected the most outstanding people among his training army and clicked on the confirm button.
"Woosh…"
Aarv along with the 100 chosen guards disappeared with white light. Aarv only saw his vision turn dark before the scenery in front of him changed…
He was now standing to the side of the hall along with other warriors. Curiously, he looked around and found out that he was inside a Darbar (A place where the king talks to his ministers as well as common people). He also noticed a tense atmosphere in the meeting hall.
Suddenly a majestic voice came from the main seat in the Darbar.
"Read it one more time…"
Although they were just simple words, they weighed like mountains on the people present in the meeting hall. They all shivered unconsciously… all of them had a single thought,
'The monarch is angry…'
Although the pressure was not directed at them, they still felt suffocating pressure. Aarv looked at the person standing in the middle of the Darbar. He was the messenger of Alauddin Khilji.
"Our lord Sultan-E-Hind has invited you and your whole family…"
"Hmmm… " Maharawal Ratan Simha interrupted the messenger again. He looked at the messenger and said,
"Sultan-E-Hind? Hahaha…"
All the people present inside the Darbar also started laughing… while Maharawal Ratan Simha looked at the messenger and said,
"Tell your sultan that before declaring himself Sultan-E-Hind, He should know that this Suryavanshi kingdom of Mevad is still standing and will remain to stand…We don't need some Sultan to protect us… Our Rajputs have more Iron in their chests than your swords…"
The messenger trembled under the loud voice. He was just going to warn Maharawal Ratan Simha about war, but before he could say anything, the king ordered,
"Send him back…"
The Darbar guards came forward and took the struggling messenger away.
Aarv looked toward the throne and saw the majestic figure of Maharawal Ratan Simha.
"He doesn't look like the one who fled the war… Maybe the history we were taught was wrong..?"
Aarv could not believe that such a majestic figure fled from war. Same doubts came to the minds of the other 50 lords who were looking at Maharawal Ratan Simha.

After the Darbar ended, all Rajputs left the hall to do their daily jobs while all the lord players held a meeting at a secret place…
As a leader, Aarv sat on the main seat and looked at all 51 lords in front of him and said,
"While we don't know if the history we were taught is right or wrong, what we do know is that Chittod still stands and Alauddin Khilji hasn't attacked yet…"
"Our first priority should be collecting as much food as possible…"
Aarv knew that the first time Allaudin Khilji attacked Chittod, He laid siege to the castle for 6 months. He had to first fill up additional food supplies for the fort.
Supriya, who was sitting right beside John said, "This matter is pretty simple, I have already bought a lot of supplies with me, from medicine to food... I even brought…"
Her voice stopped midway as she saw a big lock icon on her inventory.
[Cannot access inventory while inside the Historical event…]
There was a big red warning message on the inventory. Looking at the message, Supriya, with the rest of the lord's faces, turned pale. They thought that with their inventory they could defend the fort of Chittod for 2 years without worrying about the food.
Aarv was not surprised looking at their pale faces. He was also shocked when he first saw his inventory locked so he calmed the crowd down and said,
"No need to be surprised… we need to think of ways to tackle the situation at hand now…"
He looked at the lords and said, "Tomorrow, buy all the grain in surrounding villages. Buy as much as possible and bring it to me… Supriya, you will handle this task…"
Although Supriya didn't like the authoritative tone in Aarv's voice, she still nodded and accepted the task. Although the game didn't allow them to bring anything to the historical quest, it still allowed them some money to lay out their plan.
The meeting ended with a 'not too sure' note. Aarv did not care about what other lords thought, his biggest concern was the herbs that he asked Shama.
"I bought the thing you asked for, but… what do we do now..?"
Shama looked at Aarv with teary eyes. Aarv looked at her face and patted her head and said,
"If we can't bring the herbs, we will just find them here…"
"But these herbs were only found in the Himalayas… we will not be able to find them here…"
Aarv looked at her and said, "If we can't find it, we will just replace it… you know, the land of mevad is the land of Eklingji Mahadev… and you know what fruit lord shiva likes the best…"
"Dhotra…" This time Shama cheerfully answered.
Dhotra, while not as poisonous as Nagfani, was still a suitable substitution. Aarv wanted to make a lethal secret weapon specifically for Alauddin Khilji… the weapon called 'Poison Arrows'
"Let's go…"
He brought Shama along with him to the mountains at the back of the Chittod fort in search of wild Dhotra plants.
The speciality of the Dhotra plant was that the whole body of the plant was poisonous.
After collecting Dhotra plants the whole evening, Aarv dug out a pit and lit up the fire, roasting the fruits. He also grounded the leaves along with the roasted fruits to create a dark green paste.
The poison powder was ready…
