3rd POV

Never was there a day in Neval where everything was cool and peaceful. Nope always there was something happening because of one thing called mana or magic. Yep, everyone possessed it including babies too.

So, imagine how hectic life is here, but there was a downside too. In the world of Neval lived a boy of age just 19 with his father in a cottage. The location he lived in was surrounded by trees hidden from the outside world and he didn't even know how it looked since his father always told him that there were demons present.

So at a very young age his curiosity died and now he just relaxes and meditates. 

Current Time, 1st POV

"Om" I repeated this mantra in my head as I connected with the surrounding finding peace which was never present whenever I was doing something else. Currently I didn't feel anything except for something wrapping around my neck lightly.

It almost represented a hug, but it wasn't enough to distract from my focus. As I kept meditating and chanting the name of our house god Lord Shiva, the rustle of leave and the breaking of twigs obliterated my concentration.

I slowly opened my eyes coming face to face with a lion and a tiger along with a bull who were resting right beside me and looking at me with curiosity in their lovable eyes. I felt my cheeks being touched by some forked tongue, so I looked down and saw that a big python had wrapped itself around my neck, now it was giving me loving kisses.

I sat still for a moment just enjoying the scenario and animals who kept nuzzling their heads on my neck licking my face almost like as if I was their parent. But unlike others I didn't fear anyone of them since they were all my friends.

Slowly I stood up careful not to harm the animals, then sensing my inner feelings the snake slowly uncurled as it slithered down my hand before touching the grass. Oh, that reminds me everyone must touch some grass as it provides you with relaxation.

"Guess it's time to leave now, bye friends" I said to animals who looked at me with sadness since they wanted to spend a little more time but still they understood as they slowly stood up and went away, in the case of the snake it slithered away to its abode.

I stretched my limbs almost feeling as if rust had been collected in my shoulder blades, and then after stretching for a while. I took a step and then another step as I increased my speed running. This thing I was doing was to improve my body physique.

Running and running, until I arrived it front of a pond, but I didn't stop since I jumped and dived right in. As my body went inside the pond, I was able to view all the fishes who were present minding their own business but when they saw me, they surrounded me almost like as if they were snuggling on my body.

From the day I was born, my father always told me I had a special affinity with all the animals almost life the animal lord avatar of lord Shiva known as Pashupati, and I still carried this affinity. Inside the water, I moved like a fish as I twirled around with my fish friends.

In this process, my bathing was also done. So, I moved my feet and got out of the water. Taking in a deep breath because I was holding oxygen for a long time, I looked down at the water observing my reflection.

My deep brown eyes glowed with confidence and humility as my long black running down to my hips was wet dripping water. I looked quite handsome if I do say so myself and then I got up observing my broad muscular body which I trained from the moment I turned 5 years.

Due to my intense training, some scars ran down by abs and pecs. But to be honest I thought it made me look more attractive. Ok fine, another trait I had was being a self-obsessed person but still I have to admit I truly looked hot.

"Looking good Agastya" I said as I smiled at my reflection, my pearly whites shining. Then after admiring myself for a couple more hours, I decided time to return home and cook food.
