Eklavya was clueless about exactly what had happened but now he only saw darkness. After some time he was able to see things and found out that he was in the same old warehouse and saw his own body lying on the floor surrounded by those dangerous-looking men. It was like a third-person view of his own body.
Then he started to hear voices and heard his uncle, Dilip.
Mr. Dilip ordered one of his men and said: "Check if he is dead."
One of the men replied: "Boss he is dead."
Mr. Dilip said: "Good riddance to bad rubbish. Even when Prakash and Arati were removed from my path his son stood in front of me to become the president of the Misty Association. Now that this brat has died, nobody can stop me from becoming the president of the Misty Association."
Mr. Dilip was very happy at last that he was able to fulfill his desire to become the president of the Misty Association. The company which was established by Arati was a multi-billionaire company in which he was just an ordinary associate and after Prakash and Arati were removed from his path he thought he would be able to take over the company since Eklavya was not even an Adult yet however his lawyers told him a different story. So now that Eklavya was dead Mr. Dilip would be the only heir and would be able to get all the wealth that was theirs so naturally he was very happy today as he was able to get rid of this family.
Mr. Dilip ordered his men: "Take his body into the mountains at the back of this city and bury it in the wilderness. Make sure there are no pieces of evidence."
Eklavya was looking at all these things but could not do anything because he was in a spirit form. He saw the men taking his body over and putting it in the van in which they came. He just floated and followed these men as he saw they took the route to the mountains which were situated at the north of the city and since they were on the outskirts of the city in this old warehouse so it was not very far.
Once the men entered the mountain range the clear route ended there so they could not take the van with them. They took Eklavya's body out and put it into a bag which was quite a bit to fill up a complete human body. Eklavya was not too heavy so one of the men took the black bag on his shoulder and entered the mountains while the rest of the three men followed him.
After they crossed the mountain and reached the densely packed jungle they saw around themselves and made sure nobody was there. Though no one came into this place, however this was a murder so they wanted to be absolutely sure since their boss had ordered them not to leave any evidence.
It was eight pm so it was already nighttime and was very dark so the men had already brought LED torch light with them since the mobile flashlight would not work in this kind of darkness and the jungle was very dense with trees and bushes and there was also the chance of an encounter with a wild animal so the men hurried and started digging the ground.
After digging a big hole in the ground the men dropped the black bag with Eklavya's body in it inside the hole and filled it back with the soil and made it as if nobody could find it in the future that there was a human body buried here and then the men left the area.
Once the men left the area it turned quiet and dark again. Then only Eklavya was left there looking at his surroundings. After his death when he encountered that higher being in the cosmos and when the higher being gave him a choice to choose the life he thought he would be born again as a newborn baby or when he saw the familiar surroundings he thought he would live up again on his own body but now he was in a spirit form.
What was he supposed to do now that he was here in this world and that too in a spirit form? Would he have to spend his time like this then how was he going to take his revenge or find his parents in this spirit form?
After thinking about it for some time he went near the place where his body was buried and tried to remove the soil from its place to see if he could take out his body. However, as expected his hand just went inside the soil and came out but could not remove any soil since in this spirit form he is unable to touch anything. Any solid matter will go past him.
Then he thought perhaps he was supposed to enter his body and take over it first before coming out of the ground so he just went into the ground where he was buried but could not get into his body so he came back in the clearing again.
He was getting impatient now exactly what was he supposed to do? In this manner, almost a few hours had passed and then it was already midnight, however he could not get any idea of exactly what he should do. Then he thought perhaps the higher being just wanted to Loved me back here to take revenge in this spirit form. But how am I supposed to take revenge if I cannot touch or feel anything?
When he had lost all hope and was about to move out of the jungle and check on Mr. Dilip and his men there was some movement in the Jungle. He thought there were some wild beasts who were coming towards him and got worried since he had heard of the rumors that many people who entered this mountain range and entered this wild jungle were devoured by the various wild beasts who roam the Jungle. However, the next second he realized that he was only a spirit and no one could see him or touch him so he did not need to worry about anything.
Then he saw there was a peculiar-looking man who was short and bald entered the clearing and then more men followed and there were some beasts also among the group of people. All of them were of different sizes and colors. Some were tall and some were fat and then these people had a peculiar glow in them.
The forest where there was no light and which was pitch black was suddenly brightened as if some halogen light was turned on from above and more and more savage-looking people entered the clearing. He did not know what to do and simply stood there since he did not have any fear because he was a spirit and nobody could see him.
After some time there were more people and animals who entered and Eklavya thought it was very odd since the wild beasts were actually very friendly with these people as if they were tamed by them. However, he wondered how somebody could tame such a wild beast in such high numbers.
Eklavya was getting a bit nervous after seeing all of this as he saw all those men occupy the clearing as they were deep in the forest inside the mountain range. He has never heard of these kinds of people populating the jungle previously.
Then he noticed that some of the people did not have a few body parts. Heck, some of them do not have their heads on their shoulders. They were just carrying their heads like some item in their hands. Then he came to an understanding that these people were not living beings but Ghosts who were also dead.
After seeing all this he clearly knew that these were not normal beings or could be spirits like himself or some kind of undead so he had to be careful of them and hide behind the bushes.
Then there came a man who was well-built and had royal clothing on him and he seemed to be the leader of this group who came in the middle of all of them and all the other ghosts seemed to be listening to him.
After that to Eklavya's surprise, he saw all of these people getting settled down and also saw that many furniture like beds, tables, chairs, fireplaces, and food all came and the people settled down and started to enjoy themselves.
Eklavya did not dare to move from his position and just observed those undead people or ghosts and thought what should he do, what are they going to do next and from where all these extraordinary creatures were coming?
As Eklavya was dwindling on these thoughts of his the leader of this group said: "Today we have a guest among ourselves so let's not ignore him. This Young man please come out, we can all see you."
Eklavya thought that the leader was speaking to his people but then the leader said again: "Eklavya we are talking to you. Come out, you are one of our guests and we would be glad to interact with you."
When the leader took his name there was no doubt that he was calling him and since they could already see him there was no point in hiding so he came out in the open.
Eklavya was nervous as he was standing in the middle of so many people and was sure that these were all dead since they could see him and also because of the extraordinary things they were able to do.
Eklavya said: "I do not wish to disturb any of you. I was just passing by so I will go now."
The leader said: "Do not lie to us since we know everything about you by just looking at you. You are Eklavya, one of the young masters of your city, however your parents were kidnapped when you had gone to a jungle safari on a trip with them. Then you tried to find them with all your means but could not get any news of them. Your uncle Dilip had then thrown you out of your own home which actually belonged to your parents. Then he killed you to take over your parent's company and wealth. Right now your body is buried in this clearing and you are wondering how to get your body out right."
Eklavya wondered and said: "Sir How do you know everything about me?"
The leader cackled and replied: "Ke ke ke how will I not know after all I am the King of the Ghosts."
