Chereads / The Rakshas Apocalypse / Chapter 8 - Chapter 8: Devanagari

Chapter 8 - Chapter 8: Devanagari

This city looks like it came out from a goddamn sci-fi novel or fantasy novel whichever you prefer. I wasn't shocked since I had come to this city a while back during a phase.

"wow"

This simple word just came out of Sana's mouth, and I knew that she had many words that were currently circulating in her mind, but she didn't know how to get them out.

Well to be honest anyone's state would be like this. I looked back at my two-close friend, and they were still gazing at the city with wonder.

A small smile appeared on my face as I viewed their expressions.

"Let's go"

My words broke them out of their stupor, and they all nodded attentively. Oh, how I love this team. We officially entered the town and as we exited the underground road, the door closed behind us.

"Well team, we have officially entered the Devanagari."

I stated and none of them said anything just expressed their opinion by nodding. We were currently inside the forest of Devanagari, but we could still see the big buildings.

I gestured them to follow me as we navigated our way towards the busy streets by cutting the bushes and thorns with our weapons since we didn't want a hindrance in our path.

After a few minutes of walking and cutting we reached the streets of Devanagari. We stealthily went entered the streets blending with the crowds. We were currently inside the crowd undetected.

We all kept walking and suddenly my stomach growled. Aditya and Sana looked at me and soon their bellies also growled. OK I get it body, that we all are hungry.

"We need to eat but from where do we get money?"

Aditya raised a good question and Sana also nodded.

"Don't worry my friends, I am not dumb like you too. I have already stolen cash from some dead bodies."

I whispered with a happy smile on my face and both of them looked at me weirded out, but they were also worried about my mental state. No need to worry my friends, I am at least 1% OK.

We saw a restaurant named Dhaba of Gods. Ok what is this town's obsession with relating every gosh darn thing with God. But I am not complaining.

Me and my two buddies entered the restaurant, we looked around and saw that it was filled up with the exception of one table with four seats. I quickly sat on the table not wanting anyone to take my spot.

My buddies also followed, and a waiter came to our table, asking for our order. I quickly took a look at the menu.

"Yes, I want one big size chicken pizza along with some hot chocolate ice cream brownies."

He nodded and then looked at my buddies who were still looking at the menu.

"Well, I would like a chicken chowmein with some chili chicken with negligible spice."

Aditya ordered and the only one remaining was Sana who was taking a few minutes to consider.

"Well, I would like an egg fried rice with chicken tandoori kabab."

The waiter quickly noted down her order and then he entered the kitchen while the other waiters were busy taking orders of other people. I knew the order would be given to us after a few minutes.

So, I started to discuss our plans and options if the rakshasas invaded. We were so invested in our talks that everything around us disappeared. But when we felt that the waiter was coming, we all went silent.

He set down the food and goddamn it was looking delicious as fuck. Sorry good foods make me act up all of a sudden. I thanked the waiter, and he smiled before going to the other tables picking up dirty plates with some leftover foods in it.

I didn't wait for the others to chow down. So, I quickly thanked Lord Shiva for food, and then begin the feast. Even if I was hungry, I didn't chow down like a wild beast.

Instead, I ate like elegant and royal fellow. The other two were looking at me with a deadpan face since I was acting like a dramatic snobbish man. Nevertheless, they concentrated on their food and started to feast.

I was in heaven as I took a bite since I never experienced this much taste in my life. If I was in a food anime, I would probably blush and moan but since I am in the real world and didn't want to embarrass myself, I stayed quiet and did all the compliments in my mind.

I looked at my two friend and saw that they were also chowing down but unlike me they were a beast or lion who was being starved before getting a deer. I sweat dropped at this before concentrating on my meal again and then started to bite down again.

But as I was eating a loud explosion was heard and from the roof of the restaurant dropped in a human sized rakshasa. Due to the shockwave the beast produced; our table was flipped destroying our food.

My friends were in shock, but they were also scared after seeing my angry face. I was in rage since this beast dared to destroy my food time.

The Rakshasa cackled with his ugly goblin like as he looked at all of us and raising one of his arms out of all 6, he fired a blast at one of the humans.

The laser pierced through the heart resulting in an instant death. Then he pointed his laser arm at us especially his target was me. As he began to charge the laser.

A trident/trishul pierced through that hand tearing it apart. He was shocked and in pain but then he looked at me.

Literal saliva was dropping out of my mouth as I was seething in anger. The beastly creature had a shocked look on his face as my gauntlets appeared.

I looked at the creature before stomping on the ground as I began to walk towards it. Aditya didn't intervene and also didn't let Sana intervene too since he knew that no one could stop me in this state.

I walked towards the beast slowly as I stomped on the ground continuously, making loud sounds as the beast was getting scared by each step I took.

The beast quickly charged another laser and shot it at me but sadly it hit my chest plate nullifying it. He was scared I could tell, and I was enjoying the look of despair on the face.

He screamed as he tried to punch me, but I dodged and grabbed it before ripping it out.
