"SHEN LAI!!!!!! ....IT.. IT..IT CAN'T BE..." Argius murmured with extreme shock. Argius added, "But you... you were killed..."
-"By your son?... No Argius... That was my twin brother, Shen Lai. I am Kim Lai."
Argius seemed like he got some chill after hearing it. "Hey, can someone tell me what is this Kim Lai Shen Lai matter?" Lusio asked curiously.
-"My brother Shen Lai was handling the treatment of Arthur Ronan or you can say as all people say, the hidden emperor at Himalaya Valley, Nepal. Where he murdered Shen, abused his immense dark powers and did this all of nonsence stuffs." (Kim explained to Lusio)
-"I know it is very mean to say sorry for what my son did but..." (Argius wanted perdon)
-"Ohh no no Argius... It is our fate. You are a very good man and Arthur too. He even can not recognise himself for now. And what he did, it had nothing to do with you." (Kim shoothed Argius)
-"But now, I am upto change everything. I am not sure that we will be successful but. We will try for sure. Dying is better than live like this."
-"Can anybody tell me what is happening here?" (Mohan asked)
-"It is about to finish the game of Arthur." (Lusio said)
-"Game of Arthur?? Are you guys planning for a War or something against the hidden emperor??? (Mohan doubted)
-" Yes something like that. And why the hell do you everyone call him Hidden Emperor??" (Lusio replied furiously)
-"Because nobody has seen him except only me." (Argius explained)
-"But why emperor?? He is just a murderer and a kidnapper... Nothing else." (Lusio yelled out angrily)
-"Ohh its for his long frightening ruling everyone is just stucked up with this name..." (Argius added further)
-"Ohh I get it now." (Lusio made a convinced face)
-"Hey I have some job. I am leaving. You guys carry on." (Mohan said and left)
-"Ok" (All said)

Lusio threw a suspecting glance to Mohan. He got something wrong. Then they moved on to the main topic. They told Kim everything. "Hmmm... I see. Have you braught the book with you?"
-"Yes obviously." Lusio replied and handed over the book to Kim. Kim went through the book very carefully for a moment.
-"Hmm." (Kim just uttered something unclear and made a very serious face)
-"What?? Got anything?? (Lusio asked)
-"Not yet." (Kim replied)
-"Okay take the book and come with us Mr. Kai." (Argius said)
-"But where?" (Kim asked)
-"To our secret cottage. Safe place where no one can find us."
-"Ohhh... Okay then. Let's go."
-"But in disguise. We may face many dangers outside." (Argius suggested)
-"Yeah it's right." (Lusio added to Argius)

They took sacks on their body and put make up on their faces by some mud and ink. They set off to Lavytan forest where Argius's cottage situated. Morning became evening. When they turned up to their cottage they found Nancy was crying, sitting on the stairs outside the room. As soon as Lusio saw Nancy, he ran to her.
-"Heyy Nancy what happened?? Why are you are crying. And...and where is Uncle John..? Pllzz answer me."
-"They....they...(Sobs)"
-"They who??? They who Nancy?? What happened?? Say clearly plz."
-"They took dad with them." (Sobs)
-"Who took uncle John?"
-"The troops of king." (Sobs more loudly)

"Ohhh my god", Argius spoke out. "Who knows what the hell they would do to him!!!", he added. "What if they kill my dad??" Nancy exclaimed with fear. She was sobbing badly.
-"No they won't... If they kill your father then they know that they can never get us. They would keep him alive. So that we have a urge to get him back." (Argius tried to convince Nancy)

Nancy nodded like she was convinced. Argius motivated her to fight along them. But everyone was going to be surprised to see something hidden inside her. It was yet to reveal. Argius asked them to gather. "We all know that why we are here. We all have our own duties in this big campaign. The path is too tough. But we are ready to dedicate anything to make ourselves successful. But we can't proceed without a correct plan. See Kim, you have to make yourself as well as ourselves understand the book in details. I will go to the villages and will make them concern as Nancy has been already seen by them. And in the afternoon I will train you Lusio about the powers..." (Argius explains their duties)
-"That means I am free in the morning..!!!" (Lusio yelled joufully)
-"No...You will be practising other fighting skills in the morning..." (Argius shut him up)
-"I will train him in this thing..." (Nancy was silent but suddenly speakes up)
-"You???" (Lusio says and makes a wiered face)
-"Don't be surprized Sam. You didn't see the whole of me..!!" (Nancy moved her eyebrow and threw a outsmarting glance)
-"Ok then, this is set." (Argius cut it)

Next day Lusio got up and was yawning untill Nancy's voice tilted him up. "Sam... c'mon get up. We gotta be training. specially you."
-"Okay Okay... I am coming uff." Lusio got up and got fresh. He came outside and found something that was very unfamiliar too him. He saw Nancy in a short bodyfit tight thick dress which was hardly covering upto her knees. She had two wooden swords in her hands. She was looking too much astonishing and attractive in that outfit. She had been always seen in lose pale typical frocks till now by Lusio unlike today. Lusio's jaw was just droppen. He yelled up, "Damn you look like Wonder-woman."
-"Wonder-woman?? That DC comic character?? I read it once when I was Eight."
-"Nope... Like Gadott, in the WonderWoman movie."
-"I dont know what are you talking about."
-"I mean... I just mean that.. You are looking hot...!!!"
-"What!!!??... Is this a brotherlike compliment??? Are you all right?
-"No I I I mean You you... You are looking beautiful." (He started to stammer)
-"Are you sick?"
-"No no I am alright. I am alright. Absolutely right."
-"Then take it.."

Nancy threw a sword to Lusio. Lusio caught it and before he could be ready with that he saw that Nancy made a badass glance to him and furiously threw the sword towards his face. Lusio shouted out in fear very loudly...!
