After Aadityapal's victory against Ranya, the competition was supposedly over.
However, the approaching commotion stirred up curiosity in the audience.
Apprehension painted Ashoka's face and Alex frowned.
The stomping sound was getting closer and closer, and then, a gigantic white elephant appeared in the skies above the venue.
Numerous winged horses orbited the elephant, and strange, dwarf-like creatures sat upon them.
The creatures were carrying giant war drums and chanting praises, "King of the Devas, the ever-merciful, Lord Indra!
"King of the devas, the ever-powerful, Lord Indra!"
Ashoka was less than pleased at the incoming guest, and a tall man jumped out of the elephant, and into the arena.
The man was the god Indra.
He had an indifferent expression to his face and his curved and thin eyebrows emanated an exalted aura.
