Chapter 8: Hidden king
When the name of the hidden demon is mentioned Rakesh's father's expression has changed a little.
But soon after that he blinked his eyes and thought about someone that made his face sweat but he felt that that person would not come here.
Still he wants to make sure that this stupid son did not invite that demon here.
He first calmed his son with a glass of cold water from a servant and asked him to explain what he wanted to say.
Mandara was with him and equally anxious
At first he thought of nothing of the narration of his son going to steal a poor person's girlfriend for himself.
Mandara felt contempt towards Rakesh when listening to his words.
When Rakesh came to the part when his men were beaten Rakesh showed the men to his father.
His father frowned and he suddenly felt an ominous feeling inside his mind.
As his continued the sweat beads started to form on his forehead and a chill went down his spine.
By the time his son ended his words he simply stood up and gave his son a strong slap that two tooth of his son flew out.
"You stupid son of my,
How can you actually provoke that demon?
Tell me why.
What if you lose to some person in studies and sports?
Did he ever said any bad words to you or provoke you?
Do you know what you have done?
Do you know who you provoked?
You Idiot!
Tell me where is that person?
I hope it is not too late.
Fuck you.
You have even dared to sleep with his girlfriend and make a video out of it to present it to that demon.
How can you be so stupid?"
Rakesh's father immediately pulled Rakesh into a car and told the driver to drive to the address that his son spoke.
He was in so much hurry that he did not even care about his men or other things that is taking care of at home.
Mandara felt a strange feeling that she suddenly lost something that cannot be taken back.
Something so valuable that it should be her good karma from few hundred lives to get but she simply dumped it like waste.
She immediately followed Rakesh to get in to the car as they speed away to the location of Vikram's rented apartment.
On the way under the questioning of Rakesh his father spoke with irritation.
"The hidden demon is said to be some high level person whose face has never appeared before.
It is said that he is a mercenary that kill other mercenary and underworld people because they crossed his bottom line.
Most of the money he earned is not from the mercenary job instead of killing mercenaries and taking their secret stashes.
He has invested meticulously in many high level companies that are current in top 500 and also the hidden top companies.
He can walk into any country including USA without anyone daring to stop him.
Well no one can recognise him even if they want to stop him.
He is also a highly valued scientist that has contributed to the recent scientific developments around the world.
If he just gave a command he can make any country go to war and even without any reliance he can manipulate from the shadows to cause a civil war in a country.
There is one time some rich man of US who became frustrated because he was unable to buy of this demon's research tried to attack a company that this demon invested.
Do you know what the results are?
Right after the attack, a series of news started circulate in the net that possess all the company secrets of this rich man along with all of his illegal dealings and secret affairs with perfect proofs.
You should know the recent financial crisis all over the world right.
This is the after effect of that demon's retaliation.
When the news of the secrets came out not only that rich man but the people behind him and supported him throughout the world was pulled out.
There is another secret to this retaliation.
Well this retaliation is not because that rich man tried to attack the company he invested.
Instead this rich man also tried to kidnap and shoot an adult video of the company manager's wife and daughter.
The thing is they only tried and were unsuccessful because the demon appeared out of nowhere and saved them.
Only after that rich man touched his bottom line did the demon retaliate.
It is said that this as long as you did not do something to touch his bottom line that demon will not do anything to you.
Fortunately that demon should have already realised that this woman is not loyal to him so he simply let you go.
If this woman was really loyal to him then with your behaviour the result would be very simple.
You would die and out entire family including the roots of our business, politics and everything will be erased from the history of our country.
Fortunately this woman is not loyal to him.
Oh! I forgot to mention.
Even though he is called a hidden demon, there is another name for him in many countries.
He is called the hidden King.
His support in itself is the branding that the person never does illegal business of some sorts.
Only the nature of this person is so frightening that he was called as hidden demon by the people in the underworld.
He should have already expecting you to some extent and has already researched about your background that is me.
That should be why he called himself as hidden demon instead of hidden king for me to recognise quickly."
The more he calmed down the more Rakesh's father thought how lucky he was.
On the other hand Mandara has the thoughts of dying that she has just kicked away a person whose power is compared to a country......
Chapter 9: do you want to know the secrets of the world?
On the other hand Mandara has the thoughts of dying that she has just kicked away a person whose power is compared to a country.
A true king the one that she can never get is with her for so long and she never knew it.
"Phat"
"Phat"
Mandara slapped her cheeks marking her hand prints red on her cheeks.
She started to cry.
Rakesh's father looked at her with pity for the loss of chance and contempt at her stupidity at the same time.
When his father stopped speaking Rakesh couldn't help but ask.
"Father, why are you calling Vikram by the titles like demon or king?
Is Vikram not his true name?"
His father looked at him and nodded his head and said.
"No one knows what his true name is or which nation he belongs to.
Well the people that saw him usually pointed to different nationalities because of his disguising techniques.
Think about it during his stay with you people do you have even a single photo of him."
When Vikram thought about and searched through his groups and friends and even the university staff records.
But all he found is that for some reason the records of this specific person are gone both soft and hard copies were gone completely.
When he said this out loud the expression on his father's face became more hardened because previously his thoughts of demon were just a guess but now it was confirmed.
He doesn't want to become the victim of the demon's retaliation because of his son's stupidity.
Finally, they arrived at the apartment of Vikram stayed till now.
When they came they found that Vikram vacated the apartment and after paying the rent completely to the owner.
When they tried to see through the CCTV footages they found that they were already deleted.
Rakesh's father wanted to take a look at the apartment and found that everything is as it is and looked very neat and clean.
It is as if no one stayed here or the person that stayed here did not leave a single trace of himself here.
Rakesh's father send his men to search all the means of transport that is going out of this town based on the leaving attire of Vikram that he got from the house owner.
......
Vikram just arrived at the beach area.
With the big bag he started to walk on the beach as if he is not carrying the bag behind him and walking on the sand.
He was peacefully sat at a corner of the beach where the number of people nearby is very sparse.
He was thinking of his findings as he already forgot about the incident related to Mandara and Rakesh just like they are a just a passing wind.
"Now that I came to some conclusions all of them turned to be dead ends and it is like some invisible wall is blocking me from knowing the truth of these secrets.
What is the key to solving these secrets...?"
When he thought of these words he received a message in his secret phone.
"Do you want to know the secret of the world?
Yes/ no"
This is was a self made and highly secured phone.
Currently it is not connected to any network or there is no way to send a message to it directly right now because it was switched off.
Then how did the message appeared in a switched off phone.
He suddenly had a premonition that this is the key to solving his current predicament.
He did not click the yes option instead he checked the phone for a few seconds and decided to switch on the phone but the phone did not respond
He sighed for a moment and knows that he is going to open the Pandora's Box.
But there is a hidden excitement in his thought as he finally clicked the yes option.
Immediately his surroundings suddenly froze as if someone clicked the stop button then his surroundings blanked out making him fall into a semi unconscious state.
.......
He doesn't know how long it has passed but he felt like he has travelled at a very high speed but in stable state.
When he woke up he was in a huge hall that was enclosed on all sides.
Other than him there are other people and by count it should be around hundred of them.
He is the first one to wake up and started to look around with curiosity.
He was sure that he was not kidnapped.
His bag is with him and the phone is still on his hand.
There is not even a single change to his appearance when he was on the beach.
This shows that he was not kidnapped or anyone touched his body to move.
So he was transported here by other means.
He did not show any expression on his face at first but he decided to change it and act as a normal civilian that looked confused over his current situation.
He observed the nationality of other people.
They are from all over the world and there is not specific pattern.
He looked around the solid walls of the enclosed room.
He found that the walls are strong and made of some unknown material.
The people started to wake up one by one and the ruckus started with some people that have big mouth and throw their weights around.
Vikram just simply ignored them and found a specific spot which is like an elevated platform.
"Hey how dare you kidnap me?
Do you know who I am?
Release me immediately or face the consequences of my background"
"Sir whoever that kidnapped me.
If you want money I can give you as much as you want so please release me."
"Is this a reality show or that illegal battle royal fighting that has recently become famous in the novels...?"
"Please release me I my husband will become doubtful again...."
