Shanti sleep in her room, her mind still reeling from the events of the previous day. The Master's announcement about a special guest had left her curious, and she wondered who it could be.
As she woke up the next morning, she felt a sense of excitement and nervousness.
She got dressed and headed out, her eyes scanning the corridors for any sign of Aarya.
Shanti was excited and nervous to see Aarya was back and wanted her to come along. "Want to come with me?" Aarya asked, showing Shanti something mysterious.
Shanti agreed, and they walked to a room. But Master Shishtanand wasn't there. Aarya shrugged and said,
As they stepped out, they saw Master Shishtanand approaching with a boy - Naveen, 14 years old.
Shanti felt sorry for him; he'd seen his parents and friends die.
As Shanti looked at Naveen, she noticed his warm olive skin seemed to glow in the soft light. His short, straight brown hair was neatly trimmed, framing his determined face. His lean, athletic build hinted at a life of survival, and his wiry strength surprised her - he was just 14, after all. His red eyes seemed to hold secrets. But he looked like a body without soul.
Ofcourse he had seen too much.
Shanti thinks.
Shanti lost in thought.
Sistanand says, "Okay, this boy's name is Naveen. I found him on the street. He's a bit interesting, so I brought him home. And you guys, today is a holiday because I have some work."
Arya says, "You and holiday? You're taking a leave?"
Sistanand asks, "What's wrong? Any problem?"
Aarya says, "No, nothing. I was just shocked."
Then a Aarya and shanti turns to live.
Sistanand continues, "Alright, go ahead. And hey, is Sanjeev your real name?" Arya is taken aback, and Shanti is shocked that Sistanand knows her original name despite her being a commoner-like student here.
Shanti thinks this isn't important right now; what's important is her role. But her role hasn't even started yet, and the main character hasn't evolved properly. To become a cool villain, Anyways her real name sounds masculine so this isn't the issue.
As a villain, she has many questions. She addresses the system, "System?" The system responds, "What happened?" Shanti expresses her confusion about Sistanand's behavior and says she's asking many questions.
The system apologizes, "Sorry, I have to go. I have a lot of work. I can't talk right now."
Shanti asks, "Where are you going?" Common you are like ai.
The system explains it's 'no i am not an ai well i am more like a human.
Shanti doesn't want details but asks something else.
Okay then tell me how to fulfill my villianous role.
The system apologizes again and gives an instruction: "Your role will continue in two days. For now, you're just a normal character. This is just the past."
The system leaves.
Shanti is about to curse it when Sistanand calls out, "Sanjeev, Sanjeev." Shanti freezes.
I am sorry master. Shanti apologized.
Arya thinks, "Interesting."
Shanti is shown apologizing and saying, "Master, I didn't know this thing."
Then he says, "It's okay, don't hide anything next time."
Then she looks at Naveen again and starts walking away. Master Shistanand and Naveen also leave from there.
Then Arya said, "It's been quite some time, they haven't talked properly." Arya says, "I didn't know you were this good."
Shanti asks, "What do you mean?"
Arya says, "I want to tell you something. I can see that strange thing that's always on your head." Shanti gets a bit scared, her hair stands on end, and she tries to calm herself down.
Arya says, "Don't worry, I'm a player too. I've kept my love interest, Dukka, with me. And I had the system for some time.
Arya continues, "I'm revealing these things to you quickly because your role could end very badly. Be careful, this this novel is like a game right now. Okay, bye. I see you're a player like me."
Shocked shanti returns to her room and lay on bed and sleeps.
In the cave where a boy is crying uncontrollably, saying, "Why is this happening to me? Why is God doing this to me?" His mother says, "Naveen, listen, it's okay. Calm down. Have faith in God. Don't blame God."
Naveen says, "If not God, then who? Who created this world?"
His mother says, "Calm down."
The scene shifts to Naveen, who's crying alone, thinking, "I wish I hadn't blamed God that day. At least he would've spared my mom." He's crying, and eventually falls asleep.
Shanti, is reading this novel and thinks, "Poor thing, he just wanted to be with his mom. That crazy author took that away from him. I wish the poor boy gets his revenge.
Shanti suddenly wakes up, looks around her room, and says, "Great, now I'm dreaming about my past life."
"This is my 30th day, I've been here for a month. The protagonist just arrived two days ago. A lot of time has passed, but the system still hasn't arrived. I don't know what's going on. My role is about to start."
Suddenly, the system appears. She says, "Missing me?"
She responds angrily, "I was just figuring out what to do. Where were you all this time?"
The system says, "Sorry, I was doing something important."
She says, "Okay, now tell me how to do this."
The system says, "First, you need to interact with him, build connections as a friend, as a senior. Then, you'll have to betray him repeatedly."
She says, "Connections? Is he that kind of person am I I want to be cool villian?
The system says, "I'm sorry, which script are you in? You're not just an extra character, are you?"
She says, "Actually, am I even an extra character? I don't even know if I'm in a script."
When shanti asked this the system fell silent.
Hey are answering or not not, shanti mumered.
"What's going on? System crash or just ignoring me?" Shanti murmured, tapping her foot impatiently. The screen remained blank, no response from the system.
Then system finally said here are the rules for become cool villian:-
1. Create a sad backstory that makes people understand why you're evil.
2. Pick a strong reason for being evil (like revenge or greed).
3. Develop a unique style.
4. Get loyal followers.
5. Have a secret plan to take over.
6. Enjoy being a villain.
Shanti rolled her eyes and said
Good but I am not asking for this, why are you not answering me system what I want?
The electrical voice of system crashed.
And suddenly everything fell silent and system disappear.
Then shanti shouted hey where you are?!!!!!!!!.
Then we're shown another place, where a man is sitting at a street stall, drinking tea in the evening.
He says, "System, are you malfunctioning again?"
The system replies, "Sorry about that."
The man says, "First, come to your human form."
The system says, "Master, sorry I'm late."
The man says, "Sorry, I might be telling you too early."
The system says, "Forgive me." The man says, "First, come to your human form."
The system transforms into a very handsome man with a tan skin tone and black hair. He says, "Sorry I'm a bit late." The man says, "Okay, don't keep apologizing. Did I ask you something?" The system says, "The story is going well, new transmigrators are coming and living their lives."
The man says, sipping his tea, "I'm happy as the author of this world. But keep observing everyone carefully, I don't want my story to go badly. It's my draft world, but I love this story." The system says, "I promise."
The man's face is shown, wearing traditional Indian clothes, with normal brownish hair and blue eyes.
On the other hand Shanti, who's getting angry and walks out, thinking, "This system never behaves properly with me."
Shanti was walking through a peaceful gurukul (ancient Indian school). Students were learning scriptures and practicing activities like archery. She was wearing traditional clothes and looked determined but a bit confused due to the system issue. She saw the chief guru watching her with sharp eyes.
The chief guru eyes were raised suspicion and walks towards her and said strictly,
Who are you? And what are you doing?
Shanti was nervous and said, "My name is Sayan... I'm a student of... um, Master..."
The chief guru looked surprised, "Sayan? I don't know a student with that name. Why are you here?"
Shanti looked down, unsure what to say. The chief guru was watching her closely and then turned away in embracement.
Shanti is also confused what is happening.
The chief guru seems embarrassed and tells Shanti it's okay, no big deal. Shanti apologizes, thinking she might have done something wrong, but the guru says no, it's fine, and doesn't even look at her. Shanti's confused.
She thinks the guru seems nice, unlike Shistanand. The author mentions that this guru will actually be useful to the protagonist (main character) later on, but the protagonist will end up killing them because their ideologies don't match.
The scene shifts to Shanti going to Shistanand's hut, knocks twice, and asks if she can enter. Shistanand says yes.
Inside, Shanti thinks that Shistanand only has two students who show up on time. Other students get tasks they can't complete and end up leaving.
Shanti sat down, and Shistanand began speaking in a low tone. "You've been observing, Sanjeev. Tell me, what do you think is the purpose of my methods?"
Shanti hesitated, unsure how to respond.
Then shishtanand said okay tell me the answer the answer of this question
Given the heights of two pillars (and), find the height () where strings stretched from the top of each pillar to the base of the other intersect.
The shanti calculated in her mind and answered it Let pillar 1 be x
and pillar 2 be x
. Let the strings be
and intersecting at.
Let the height of intersection
be where is perpendicular to the ground.
The intersection height () of two strings, stretched from the top of two pillars (heights and) to the base of the opposite pillar, is independent of the distance between them and is given by the harmonic mean formula:
H= a x b
a +b
(After that shanti solve the sum).
Shistanand gave a small nod , "Right, Shanti. The formula works." He looked at me thoughtfully. "Now, what does this mean for someone on a spiritual path?"
Shanti thinks, "Spiritual path... this is weird because there's no such thing in math. Or is it the question itself? As far as I know, this person is testing me. Aarya passed this test, and I know Aarya will definitely not tell me the answer. What they say will be about spiritual growth, not math. In this world, spiritual path or growth refers to the energy of the soul within us... I don't know what to answer. If I answer wrong, I'll be in trouble, but I have to say something."
She says, "Spiritual path is about a soul's energy, and this energy will mainly help you when you become... well, in spiritual path, there are many things - like normal spiritual path, god spiritual path... there are many paths, and it depends on your soul, on your, what it thinks."
Shishtanand's gave a smile to shanti.
Shanti was preety shocked.
Shanti thinks, "Okay, I passed his test.
Then shishtanand said I have a break you two, two days off." Aarya asks casually, "Two days?"
Aarya thinks, "Is this the same person? He doesn't seem the same to me. Is he a player too? No, if he was, I'd have known earlier."
Why are you shocked? Shishtanand's said.
Nothing!!! Aarya said.
Aarya says, "You were really lucky."
Shishtanand intervenes, "Nobody talks to Shanti in my room. Get out."
They leave, and Aarya says, "You're really lucky, I like it. But where are you from? And you solved that problem so hard."
Shanti replies, "I'm from Pune, India. I have a degree in maths, meaning I'm not a top maths student, but I'm good at maths."
Aarya says, "That's what I saw. Anyway, all the best, your role is starting. Be careful, no bad endings. You won't get a second chance here – you'll die in this world and you already died in your own." Aarya continues, What's your name?"
Shanti interrupts, "Wait, I didn't tell you my name. My name is Sania. What your?
Chandresh Basak
Oh nice to meet you. Are you really a player.
Yeah. Aarya said
Can you tell me how did transmigrate?
Shanti questioned.
Aarya: "I was a normal person, no dreams, just living life. I read a novel in my past life and ended up here after a car accident.""I was an influencer and writer but Died in a car crash." And "My webnovel acount name's Author Ninety."
Shanti said with excitement OMG, I'm a huge fan! _grabs Aarya's hand_"
Aarya said softly"Hey, let go."
Shanti: "Can I get an autograph? I have a peacock feather and ink."
Aarya: "Alright. I'm Author Ninety, but I didn't write this novel."
"I know."
"I know the writer of this novel, my friend... that dog, literal trash doesn't return my money."
Shanti Said "If I see him, I'll collect ₹500 from him."
Aarya said 'i will give him taste of his own medicine'.
Shanti, crying tears of joy in her room. She says, "I'm meeting such a great author for the first time, brother, my luck is so good, I'm loving it!" It's getting late, and
she's looking for her system complaining that it often breaks down or goes missing. She mentions chatting with Aarya, probably the author, about their ninth book and decides to sleep as it's late.
She looks out the window, reflecting on the world's beauty and dangers. She notes that in this world, isolation means death, wrong decisions mean death, and even being slightly famous can increase death risks. She critiques the author's work, thinking the world they've created is just a revenge story where the main character smartly takes revenge on everyone, including those who weren't involved.
Despite mixed feelings, she thinks things could be worse, recalling tough times. She decides to focus on her life in this world, planning to help the protagonist initially, gain influence, and eventually enter politics. She's confident about being a good politician due to her knowledge of social studies. She plans to create obstacles for the main character, making them dependent on her, and take Advantage of influence.
