God forgive me for what iam about to do.
Nela closed her eyes and prayed to God. Fear and guilt are making her nervous and the rain is not helping, but orders are orders.
She checked on the baby she was caring with her in her bag. And her hart clenched, because the 1 day old boy is not breathing or making any movements.
But he is still alive, it's just the spell making him motion less. And the time is running out.
I was traveling around the road of Mavi forest when I came across a desperate farmer.
"Help, help please help".
I looked at the farmer and caught him by the shoulder and said. " calm down man I'll help you, calm down and tell me how can I help you"
" my wife she was about to deliver a baby, but my village doctor is not available due to a landslide, and the next village is 20 miles away please help me stranger".
Again the guilt made my heart clench, because I caused the landslide, but my face is full of sympathy.
" Of course I can help, you my name is Nila, please show me the way to your home, I will do my best"
" Thank you thank you my name is Ravi, please follow me please"
It took us 10 minutes to get to Ravi's home.
I asked Ravi to wait outside and went into bedroom where his wife Sita is waiting for me.
"Hi iam Nela and iam going to be your midwife. And don't worry I delivered more than 10 babys so your in fine hands".
" Oh thank god, I thought I was going to die thank you for coming".
I took Sita's hand in mine and squished in comforting manner. And with in a minute she fell asleep because of the drug I injected in her.
I carefully took the baby from my bag and placed him on Sita's stomach and activated the magic placed on the boy.
With in a minute there is a baby girl in place of baby boy and the girl is as motionless as the boy before. I carefully placed the motionless girl in the bag. And sprinkled some Water on sita's face
"What, what happened"?
"Nothing you just fainted it happen sometime don't worry"
This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience.
After waiting for 2 hours Sita delivered the baby and he is a beautiful boy with dark green eyes.
As soon as Ravi heard the child cry he entered the room and stood beside his wife with tears in his eyes.
"Thank you mam, thank you so much I don't know how I can thank you, please mam please take this". By saying that he placed a hundred gold coin pouch in my hands.
"Thank you for your offer. Now I have to be one my way".
As I was nearing the door sita call's me. "Mam you helped us when we lost all our hopes, would you do us the honour of naming our child".
This time it is very difficult to hide my guilt, but somehow I managed it, because the spell I performed on her, she can't live more than 18 years, still with great difficulty I turned around and walked up to the baby boy, I placed my hand on his forehead and spoke. "Abhinav". And in Whisper I spoke "Abhinav Suryavanshi".
With that I left the hous, and travelled deep into the Mavi forest. Once I was sure nobody is following me, I activated the teleportation spell, the next moment I was on the outskirts of zebron the capital city of Zain.
After an hour I was standing beside by my Lord looking at my Lady who is still a sleep from the spell's efect.
"It is done my lord". By saying that I carefully took the baby girl out of the bag, and handed her over to Bhishma Suryavanshi.
" Thank you Nela" By saying that Bhishma took the baby girl and placed her on his wife stomach and activated the magic circle.
"It is my duty Lord but can I ask Is it worth it".
"I don't know Nila, all I know is, it is my duty as a Lord to protect my people and country. And protect my family as the family head. and my children as their father. Only God can judge me now, but now I can say is I will face him with no regrets be it Hell or heaven".
"Then what about your wife and a baby girl we just took from her parents".
"I know it's wrong but I have no other choice. And Shweta supports my decision anyhow it's not in our hands anymore I will die within 3 days and my wife will follow me within 10 years it is up to the children now. Annapurna will be the next head of suryavanshi family, and she knows the truth, after I die you can directly report to her".
"Yes my lord and my next assignment".
"Do as you always did Nila, protect my children Annapurna, Abhishek, Abhijeet, and my youngest son Abhinav. It is a good name his grandfather's name. And thank you for your service Nila, you have been serving our family since I saved your family's life 2000 years ago. Even if your children and grandchildren and their grandchildren died since then, you are still serving me and my family your loyalty will be the death of you my friend".
Just as I was about to answer Lady Shweta woke up and started to mone in pain. And with in an hour she is holding a beautiful baby girl.
"Tell me about her parents Nela".
"My lady Ravi is a farmer and a green mage he hates violence but he has good magic foundation. And Sita is the best hunter in Mavi forest region her top kill is a 500 years old tiger."
"They sounds like lovely couple wish I had known them".
"Don't worry my lady I will be there to protect the young Lord you can rest easy"
"Oh I know you will protect him Nila. I just wish I had known them, once you gain immortality sometimes you forget simple things. I wish our children will be happy than we are. And suggest a good name for my Fifth Child Nila, Bhishma and I have terrible naming sense, I hoped at least my youngest son will escape that fate but fate has different plan".
"How about Aishwarya my lady"
"You know Nela I think you are the wrong person to ask but still I like the name so Aishwarya it is welcome to the family little Aishwarya. Any words for your daughter honey".
"Enjoy the journey my little girl as you enjoy the destination because let me tell you things like Paradise and immortality are a myth".
