Chapter 3 - 3. To America We Go

Time Skip 7 years

7 years went by while learning martial arts and Vedas and puranas. I learned many scientific theories were discussed in 21st century, some were not even thought of at that time. Now, it's 1907 and I am 12 years old. I have learned all things I can from all the books available and completed my martial arts training, my uncle me that he does not have anything else to teach me and to keep practicing what he taught me. And my parents have another child, a girl named Priya who is now 5 year now. She is such a curious girl.

I have decided to go to America to get an official degree, not like they can teach me anything. I already know more than them. I will also payment all the knowledge in Vedas and puranas under my name so that these countries don't claim these discoveries like in my previous life. After seven years I have come to terms with my new existence and have started seeing Saraswati and Uday as my own parents as I was an orphan in my previous life.

My parents are arranging for our travel to America. The officials said it will be hard but it's nothing some money passed under the tables can't solve. So we are packing our bags to leave tomorrow. We will board our ship at Chittagong port and will reach America in about 2-3 months depending on the weather. From there I will join MIT and graduate at an early age and start gaining fame from their.

Soon we were on our way to America on the ship, my parents were very nervous as it is their first time on a ship and they were getting sea sickness. My martial arts training and previous life experience helped in controlling my sea sickness.

After a journey of 10 weeks we reached America. From there we went to see housing but soon it was proven no matter where the white men will not stop taking advantage of those they think below them (anyone other than a white men). So we first went to MIT to confirm my admission. After reaching there we showed the recommendation letter we had officials write for me after a little bribe. We were send directly to the principle's office. The principal there asked why do I want to take admission in their college, I thought let's spin a tale once again and said "God told me to do so." Hearing this principal was confused but I didn't elaborate. After asking what couse will I like to choose I said General Engineering. He gave me a question paper that contained some questions on high school stuff and some old Rutherford's atomic model that were proven false centuries back in my world but well now I will take the credit for their work just like they did in my world. Atleast studying those old models is proving beneficial now. So, I drew a rough quantum model and answered other questions.

The principal was shocked by my answers and how fast I completed the test. When he asked why didn't elaborate the model. I said "The question didn't asked to elaborate" like I will let you steal more of our knowledge and publish it in your own name. Of course I didn't say that to him. "And I will like to publish papers about it in future. Anyways, can you arrange housing for me and my family please."

And soon we were showed a descent 3bhk house at cheap cost and we decided to settle in. My goal was to get a degree as soon as possible and build fame for my invention and knowledge.

For this, I asked my parents to buy some shares of New York Times so that they may not print anything to harm my reputation as in this time they were just their to spread propaganda like BBC. After this, I started preparing for my graduation. I decided to graduate within 6 months while publishing papers about discoveries from my past life and also what I learned from Vedas and Puranas so that these Americans and Europeans will not print it in their name in my previous life. They have already done it for shape of earth and rotation and revolution of planets. As if, we knew about it long before they even formed a language and ran around naked.

So, I have my goals set for now and I started preparing for the war to come and thinking of how to profit from it. I decided that the best way to profit from war would be to produce weapons. I would have liked to make ayurvedic potions and paste as well but I am afraid Americans will steal the recipe for them so I postponed it till India's freedom and sell them as Indian products to other nation. Meanwhile, I found that my brother has great talent in drawing and story writing so I encouraged him and decided that I will give him ideas to make comics and mangas as Indian entertainment industry was very lacking in that in my time. So, I gave him ideas like Naruto and some others, of course he changed them in an Indian way like the jutsus became a technique of elemental control etc.

Soon, within 6 months I graduated from college and have published many papers within this time. I was asked for an interview by many media outlets but I denied everyone for now. I also asked my parents to buy shares in companies that I know will grow in future. I also bought a small arms company that was going in loss because creating a completely new company would be a big headache. I didn't want to make too advanced weapons because that will make USA more strong, so I just improved designs and metallurgy to make better weapons and armoured vehicles. I also employed many Indians who came to America to flee from British rule or illegally migrated here and slowly removed all Americans at high posts in the company.

My fame and wealth was rising steadily and I am being called as a once in a millenia genius.
