After taking back and distributing whatever money or material the bald man had forcefully taken , Aarav and the other four traders were invited to stay at the town for free , but they decided that it would be late, so rather they had breakfast , and lunch was packed .
Aarav was walking with Boogey on his side ,
"Thankyou so much , sir . If it was not for you , i'd rather be dead by now . " Boogey was saying in his click-language.

"Um...Boogey , how come...i can understand what you're saying ?" He asked .

"I dont know myself , i know only one person who could understand and Speak like us ..it was God Argent."

Aarav didn't know who he was speaking of , and he didn't even want to .
"So , Boogey , where are you from ?"

He stopped in his tracks and looked at him , Boogey said,
"Don't tell anyone that i told you , but as you saved my life , you have the right to know , I'm from the DEMON WORLD . Now , don't ask where it is , i am not allowed to tell you or any other being of this realm..."

"Okay...but will you go back now ?" Aarav asked him .

"No , i can't , i came here when God Argent was ruling , since then all of my friends are waiting ...for the 'door to reopen ' ...."

"Okay , so when the door opens , you will all go back?"

"No...who told you that? When the door reopens , we will come here , to take back what's ours , to rule all the worlds...but that's not happening any soon....Looks like i should take leave here ...."

Is this guy mad? What is he saying ?Aarav thought . Walking along , they had come to the end of the village . Boogey turned to him and said,
"You are a nice guy , when the Red King will rule , i will see to it , that you will be kept alive . And also take this..."

He was giving Aarav the coin which he had taken from the bald man .
"But why? Didnt you say you will die if you dont have it ?" Aarav asked him.

"No , if i said that i take it back , what i meant ,was i will die if it goes in the wrong hand , but your too far from wrong , your good and kind , and i was destined to give you this . Take care of it , and i'm really glad that you saved me ...thankyou once again ...okay then , don't forget me ..."

With waving hands he went inside the ground and never looked back again.

Aarav had begun his journey back to the land of the sun with the silver coin in his all-fit-pouch. The trader wasn't speaking to him , though he saw him giving glances at him. Finally he spoke,
"Say Shamant , who are you exactly ? That sword of your's , it didn't look normal to me ...." he said.

"Well, its because it isn't normal , its a holy sword . And i am not special , its just a blood trait that's all , and you don't need to worry , i won't harm you..."Aarav said.

"No boy , i know you wont harm us or anyone else , its just that there's a legend in the east."He said .

"Legend?"

"Yeah, you see , the greatest sorcerer who lived in this part of the kingdom, gave a prophecy on his death bed . I don't exactly know what the prophecy was , but i know what it meant . It meant , that when the right time comes , a warrior holding a part of the silver sword will come , release a demon from its cage , without blood shed , then he will free a suffering soul and return back where he came from.
Come to look at it ,my guess is that you are the guy he predicted about . You look like a warrior to me , looking at the bruises you have , you freed that...thing from its cage , and you didn't spill a drop of blood. Well , anyways it can be coincidence ...."
