The light rays were piercing through the pale window. The sky was a little cloudy and the sun was at its peak. The little birds were chirping to welcome a new day. (The naive and pretty should know to welcome the new day instead of the man who still dwells himself in the past.)

The black demon was haunting him like an uninvited guest. He was running back behind him.

He tried to sniff the air of his room. The air! The air had something in it. He remembered the last incident. He got up from the bed. He looked at the room. Everything in the room was in its place except a thing.

The royal stamp of Shuman looked misplaced. Though his uncle was ruling over the kingdom Shuman Arnab was in charge of political affairs. He was the crown prince of the Shuman kingdom. "Where could the royal stamp go?" He was in utter shock.

He stood and came straight to the rack of books. First, he looked left and right. After confirming the fact that no one was seeing him, he put his X jade in a hidden chamber of the rack. The rack pulled open. It was hiding a divine mirror. The last 6 pieces were about to find out. It was a myth that divine mirrors got scattered in seven kingdoms of Dujeva's planet. He was lost in his imagination when his white bird made a noise.

He left the mirror in the rack. He took his X jade and came forward. He smiled while looking at the bird. He patted his bird. The bird that the envoy of Shuman had given to Insha was from a pair of lovebirds. Arnab was patting the other bird.

"Did you miss your mate? " Arnab asked the bird. The bird was sleeping but after hearing his highness's voice, he came to his senses. The bird opened its round eyes and looked at him. It was a white bird but the one given to Insha was black. Arnab then fed it himself.

He went inside a locked room.

The past incident had appeared again in front of him. He was thinking of little accidents...That caused him to lose his parents. For Arnab, the naive soul, Insha was the only key that could unlock the devious secrets of the past. Their personal assistant of Arnab was Dura. She had been his confidant.

Dura was standing a few meters away outside the locked room. She was confused. Dura was walking impatiently like she was waiting for someone to help her. "How come I can inform him about the thing." She thought. She could not decide until Arnab came outside the room.

"Did someone barge in the room?" Arnab growled. Dura was bewildered.She looked aside but there was nothing. She then mustered up her courage and pointed towards the locked room. She bowed down to give a clue to Arnab. She hid the letter behind the pot. Arnab instinctively entered the locked room. "Did you notice anything strange ?" Arnab asked Dura.

"I did not notice anything strange. But I felt that something...something was mysterious. I tried to cast spells but I forgot them as I came near the room. But thanks to my quick senses I did not enter the room. " Dura said while being shrugged.

"Hunh...It meant that ..that miraculous thing had appeared..." Arnab said and instinctively cast spells...He put his X jade in the locked room. The door of the room opened. He went inside hastily.

It was an old room with different racks of stuffed boxes. The boxes were hiding the core information and secrets of generations. Only the heir of the royal family could control this room. This room was embedded with secret messages from different kingdoms. Anything that happened in the world was recorded there.

(Huh! That was the kingdom of Shuman...The sole heir Arnab was controlling the dirty secrets of the past. He was ready to burn them...But he was waiting for the right time..)

There were also maps of all the countries in the box. One by one, he opened the box and tried to smell it. The smell of a box sniffed through his nose. He came around a box and opened it up. But when he opened it, the demonic aura came out of it.

Arnab was on alert... He expected such a thing to happen. He did sigh. He stepped back and crossed his arms. He then held them against the demonic aura. He was casting spells.

The demonic aura was growing bigger and bigger. Amidst the demonic aura that had started to spring in the room ... Arnab saw a strange mark. "X mark" was written there. He was stunned at the moment. (Such a pity to Arnab. He had nightmare dreams of X mark...Now this mark was haunting him again in real life.) He lost his senses. Before he lost his control, his personal guard Dura came inside the room.

She saw a fainted Arnab. The demonic aura was expanding more towards him. She took aside Arnab and then she cast spells. The demonic aura had gone by then. Dura then transferred her magical prowess to Arnab. He made Arnab sit down. He was shocked.

"How could that happen now...That was not possible. .." Arnab was stuttering. He covered his face with his palms

"What are you talking about, your highness ?" Dura asked Arnab. She wanted to pat Arnab but they were still formal.

"Did you see that ?" Arnab asked Dura. He was still shocked by that incident. Dura was looking at him. He looked like a pitiful child. Dura then held his hand instinctively.

" Calm down, your highness. The demon had gone away. " Dura was alleviating his doubts. She was grateful to Arnab that he had taught him a few spells...but she was not able to communicate with demons and their dialect. ..It was because only a person with high magical powers would be able to understand it.(But she knew more than this...She was also a disciple of the evil witch. Arnab wanted her to disclose her secret...But the plan was not successful yet.)

"What had he said that made you so shocked ?" Dura asked Arnab.

"The demonic aura said that their leader was not dead...It would come again to repay its past debts..." Arnab was in utter shock.

"What! Was the demon not killed by his highness Khalil himself ?" Dura asked Arnab. Arnab looked at her like he wanted to know her soul through her eyes. Dura lowered her gaze.

"I thought ...If it was the case it would be enough but I feared that he would be lurking around here...the catastrophe that had happened 21 years ago would happen again...That was what the demonic aura said," Arnab said and then he stood up. Like he remembered a sudden thing and was ready to plunge in.

"I should look for Phemeral...Only he would know how to prison this demon." His highness Arnab said. Dura then saw him leaving the room.

"What could she do ?" She was still thinking. Then she decided to follow him secretly. It was one-sided love or care for the master? Who knew?

.....

His highness Arnab changed his castle clothes to commoners. He then went out of the castle. He was searching for clues. He went inside a pawn shop and pawned an "X mark" bracelet. That was a signal that he had come for a special treatment

In the kingdom of Shuman the "X mark" had the highest rank. If you wanted to buy something and you showed an "X mark " anything even the desired king would be ready to give you that. But officials could not use this mark. Only the royals of the Shuman kingdom or their special secretive agents could use it. It was not given as a gift to the common people.

The head of the pawnshop went inside and gave him a letter." The latest thing arrived yesterday. " The old man winked at Arnab. Arnab smiled. "So had you calculated its price ?" Arnab inquired impatiently.

"Yes but nothing could be more precious than his highness' grace. " The old man winked. Arnab smirked...
