Ishani and Kavya watched the battle from the side of the field. Yudhisthira managed to settle them among the crowds with his guard. He then promised to meet them with a local doctor to check on Ishani, later after the battle. Since Ishani was overwhelmed by the pain in her lower belly and worries about Kiaan who kept attacking the opponents, Kavya was the one who noticed that they had been given special treatment by Yudhisthira and Vikramaditya since the first day.

While the rest of people disliked their presence, these two were treating them like families. They put their faith in her group easily. She was even doubtful if her friends, moreover Kiaan whom she considered as the leader, put the same amount of faith in Yudhisthira and Vikramaditya. She knew that faith was something hard to earn in a world like this.

The battle had been going on for around fifteen minutes, but Kiaan and Yodha had not defeated their four opponents. They were handling two guys each. It was intense and fierce. Kavya witnessed another side of Kiaan who looked like a beast. She was more worried about Yodha who was inexperienced in close combat. He was thrown to the ground multiple times although he managed to stand back. Seconds and minutes passed slowly for people there as they waited for the final result.

"I have a strong feeling about this, Ishani," Kavya said while biting her nails. The tension was rising as Kiaan managed to crank one of the guys' neck. People were holding their breath. The guy in between Kiaan's arms seemed unable to show resistance towards his movements.

"What kind of feeling?" Ishani was just as tense as everybody else. She did not take her eyes off the guys.

The crowds started whispering secretly when Kiaan dug his blade into the vein in his opponent's neck, causing the man to fall instantly to the ground with a pool of his own blood around him. Kiaan slaughtered him like a dog. No one was doing anything nor saying anything. The killing moment passed with silence. One down, three to go.

"Uh ... a good one?" Kavya rounded her eyes in shock after witnessing that eerie scene.

Meanwhile, Ishani witnessed the fierceness with her own eyes. She froze at her seat, gulping down hard, as she saw Kiaan stood up and ready for another round of battle. It was getting harder for Yodha as he started to look exhausted. His blows missed a few times. Kiaan had to cover him despite being overwhelmed by his own battle. It put so much stress on her. What if they did not survive?

In the midst of her shock, Ishani felt her belly churning. The pain was worse than before. She immediately gripped Kavya's hand tightly.

"I can't stand it," Ishani whispered to Kavya. Her voice was barely audible.

"Haye rabba. Shall we– Ishani!" Kavya's stifled scream was drowned out by the noise made by people around them. She did not know what happened to the guys at the field. She was just focused on Ishani who collapsed weakly to her arms.

Yudhisthira who was standing before them noticed the situation. Kavya asked him for help. The young man did not need to be secondly commanded. He called two of his friends and told them to take Ishani away. Kavya immediately followed them, but Yudhisthira stopped her in the way.

"You stay here and watch the battle," He said. It sounded more like an order to Kavya.

"Are you crazy? No, I'll be with her," Kavya insisted on following Ishani, but Yudhisthira pulled her back to her seat.

"I said stay! You can see her when the battle finishes," Yudhisthira shouted at her, making her frightened. He called another young man from the crowd and told him to be with Kavya during the battle.
