Chapter 35 - Chapter 35 : Rishi Confidence

Srishti's heart raced as she read the note again. Who could have written it? And what did they want with her?

Despite her reservations, she found herself feeling drawn to the mystery. She had to know who was behind the note and what they wanted.

At midnight, Srishti made her way to the garden, her senses on high alert. The moon was full overhead, casting eerie shadows on the ground.

As she turned a corner, she saw a figure waiting for her. It was Rishi.

"Srishti, I'm glad you came," he said, his voice low and urgent. "I need to talk to you about something."

Srishti's heart skipped a beat. "What is it?"

Rishi hesitated. "It's about my teammates and me. We're not who you think we are."

Srishti's eyes narrowed. "What do you mean?"

Rishi took a deep breath. "We're in danger, Srishti. And I think you are too."

Just then, a dark figure emerged from the shadows. Srishti's uncle, Mr. Kumar, stood tall, his eyes blazing with anger.

"You fools," he spat. "You think you can hide from me? I'll show you the true meaning of power!"

With a wave of his hand, a dark shadow demon materialized beside him. Its eyes glowed red in the dark, and its presence seemed to suck the air out of the garden.

"Take down Rishi," Mr. Kumar growled. "And bring Srishti to me."

The shadow demon let out a menacing roar and charged at Rishi, its dark tendrils snapping wildly. Rishi stood his ground, his eyes flashing with determination.

"I won't let you hurt her," he said, his voice steady.

But Srishti knew they were in grave danger. She had to act fast...

Rishi burst out laughing, his eyes gleaming with amusement. "You sent this... thing to attack me?" he asked, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "I've been waiting for you, Mr. Kumar. Now I know you don't know who I am."

The shadow demon, sensing its master's embarrassment, let out a hesitant growl. But Rishi just chuckled and raised his hand.

"Ah, no need to attack," he said. "This... creature... is no match for me."

With a flick of his wrist, the shadow demon let out a terrified screech and prostrated itself at Rishi's feet.

"Great Shadow Lord, King of Shadows, please give me orders," it whimpered.

Srishti and her uncle stared in shock, their mouths agape. "What... what just happened?" Srishti stammered.

Mr. Kumar's face turned red with rage and embarrassment. "How... how did you...?" he spluttered.

Rishi just grinned. "Let's just say I have my ways," he said. "And now, I think it's time we had a little chat... about who I really am."

The shadow demon, still trembling, nodded its head. "Y-yes, Great Shadow Lord. I will tell them everything."

Srishti's eyes widened as the shadow demon began to speak, revealing secrets.....
