Chapter 11 - Unknown person

After listening to him, Ishaan asked him, "So what is the difference between the new circle made by you and the old circle? After all, the details about the old circle are given in the book."

On Ishaan's asking, the magician said, "This is the special thing because that circle and mantra are different, so if anyone uses it, that book will not be able to absorb his magic completely, and after some time, his magic will slowly start coming back. Then he can use his magic to return to his world. But is there a condition for this as well?"

"And what is that condition?" 

Ishaan had hoped that maybe he could bring Neha back, but every time something came in the way.

The magician said, "When I discovered that the book was cursed, I deliberately left some more loops in it while drawing the circle again. Due to this, whoever holds that book and uses it, that book can listen to him and the people around him, everyone's conversation. If someone uses that book with good intentions, then that book gives him back his power, and if someone's intention is bad, then it takes away all his magic from him. Apart from this, if someone uses that book to deceive someone, makes someone else read the mantras from that book and deceitfully sends him to another world, then the book gives all the magic that it has absorbed from all the magicians till date to the one who has been deceived, and itself slowly starts disappearing. But to date, no one has done this. That is why that book is still present. If it now starts disappearing slowly, then you should understand that the truth is not what you have seen, the truth is something else."

After saying this, the magician became silent.

Seeing him silent, Ishaan asked him, "Do you remember anything else related to that book?"

Hearing his question, the magician just shook his head. Seeing him shaking his head, Ishaan let him go and went away from there himself, but instead of going back to his world, he started roaming among the humans there. He had kept that book with him, but he had not seen it disappear yet. But this was someone's way of knowing the truth, but how could he bring Neha back from that world? He still had not figured it out.

He was roaming around there when his eyes fell on a man roaming around there. But looking at his condition, it seemed that he was very drunk. Ishaan did not know why that man looked a little familiar!

"Where did I last see him?"

Thinking this, Ishaan followed her. After going a little closer to her, he looked at her face carefully and remembered that this was the same man about whom Mansi had said that she loved him and wanted to live with him. For him, she lost her magic and her world, too!

He kept following her for a while. He could not understand why she was in such a condition.

Then the man stumbled and fell due to his intoxication. Seeing him fall, Ishaan quickly went to him and caught hold of the man. But he could not control himself and asked him, "How did you get into such a condition?"

He felt that this was what had happened to him after Mansi left. But he did not understand why he did not take care of his daughter.

Hearing Ishaan's question, the man replied, "I was already in this condition! It is not a new thing that I am roaming around like that. Are you crazy to ask such a question of a drunkard?"

After saying this, he went ahead.

Ishaan was shocked after hearing her answer. That man was a drunkard, so how could Mansi fall in love with such a man that she left everything for him? How would Mansi have spent the rest of her life with him, and that is why he left Neha to die? He got very angry as soon as he thought about this.

To find the answer to all these questions from that man, he went after him and asked him, "So why did you leave your daughter to die like this?"

Hearing Ishaan's question, the man turned around in surprise and said, "My daughter? But I have never been married! You are a strange lunatic!"

After saying this, the man drank more liquor from the bottle he was holding in his hand. But after hearing his answer, Ishaan froze there. Why was that man saying as if he were never married? He grabbed the man's collar in anger and said to him, "Why are you denying your marriage? Have you forgotten your wife, Mansi? Have you forgotten that you both have a daughter, too!"

As soon as he heard Mansi's name, the man threw the liquor bottle in his hand on the ground. He said angrily, "Don't even take that girl's name? I was told that if I keep that girl trapped in my trap and hand her child over to them as soon as she is born, they will give me a lot of money. Due to which, I will become very rich. But seeing her beauty, my heart melted, and I tried to touch her. But she slapped me in anger. I got very angry due to her slap, and I tried to force myself on her, but that girl broke my head and ran away from there. After that, I don't know where she went. Because of her, I lost all my money and couldn't become rich."

After listening to that man, Ishaan got angry at him. He started beating her in anger. He said angrily, "How dare you touch Mansi inappropriately? You should have at least thought that she was going to be the mother of your child?"

Hearing Ishaan's words, the man said, "But that was not my child! She was pregnant before she met me. I don't know whose child was in her womb. Ah... don't kill me!"
