Chapter 6 - First task

"Madam it might take one and a half hours to reach there, as there is traffic on our way at this hour" The driver informs her when she sits in the car.

"No worries, then I will take a nap until we reach there," Ridhima replied. Anyway, she can see the situation there and after that, she will find a restaurant to eat her lunch and then she will visit the hospital. And meanwhile, she will use this time to talk with that mysterious voice. After thinking about this. Ridhima sits comfortably and closes her eyes.

"Hey, can you hear me?" Ridhima questioned.

"Yes," The voice replied.

"So now tell me what is the use of you to me? I mean, yes you already inform me about my life span but it is not a great help. And I also understand that we need to do good things, but still, what will my benefit in this? Talking about good karma in the next life? Who has seen the next life?" Rdihima questions.

"If you are not interested then don't do it," The voice said with some annoyance. But Ridhima who is in a corporate job has seen many negotiations and she is sure that this voice still left some space for negotiation. She will try her best to get some benefits.

"If you don't want me to do the job then you might already don't come to me" Ridhima replied.

"See, I really can't do anything right now. I am also a beginner like you who needs to save this world. And you are my last hope. I am also new to this whole system. But if you and I work together maybe we can unlock a few things. The only thing I can give you right now is information from this book. But maybe there are other benefits in the future" The voice said.

"Okay. I understand. Anyway, I will only help if I feel like helping. And can you tell me your name"

"Ummm...that..."

"Don't tell me you don't have any name" Ridhima can't help but say.

"I am just newly born you know" The voice replied.

"Oh so you are just a cute child, anyway then can I give you your name?" Rdihima questions.

"Yes, go ahead, but don't give me any shitty name" The voice replied.

"How about Goku?" Ridhima questions.

"What it is mean?" The voice questions her.

"I don't know, but it is from my favourite show" Rdihima replied.

"Okay then" The voice aka Goku replied.

"So what else have you decided to do this year" Goku questioned her.

"Oh that I still have to decide. I still am not able to conclude what I want"

"Okay, but don't waste much time thinking" Goku replied.

"I know, I have only one year left" Ridhima can't help but interrupted him.

"That is not my mean.." Goku wanted to explain more but Ridhima tells him not to bother. Then they bid each other goodbye. Ridhima decided to take a real nap.

"Madam we reach here" Ridhima open her eyes and listened to the driver's voice. She realized that she is not able to sleep properly no matter what. But now she can take a little nap which makes her somewhat refreshed.

While she is going towards the side, she once again started to hear Goku's voice, but this time it feels a little strange.

"Two people are going to die in the mishap. Save them to avoid future world destruction" Ridhima hears the voice in her head and increases her speed. She can see a way in front of her eyes to reach where the incident is going to happen

Ridhima don't knows how she is going to save those two people. But still, she walks as fast as she can. And when she reaches there, she sees the visuals in front of her. She sees two people who are going down using the wooden lift. But somehow the lift gets broken and those two people fall on the ground and die.

After seeing this, she is once again come able to see her surrounding. Before he can ask anything to Goku, she sees in front of her that those two people are going towards the lift.

Ridhima runs toward them while shouting don't go, but they are not able to hear her voice. Before she reach them, the lift already started and they started to go down. Ridhima wanted to call someone but before that one of the ropes hanging to the lift was torn. Ridhima quickly pull it with all her might, and started shouting.

Those two people in the lift also realized something and started to make noise. Thankfully, the driver also follows Ridhima to help her, as Sayli instructed him. He also comes foreward. And this way, the mishap is stopped. Ridhima seeing that both of them are safe sighs relief. But then she suddenly started to feel pain in all her body again and get unconscious.

The people around, see her getting fainted and also her bleeding hands and take her to the hospital.
