A Terrifying Test
After being scolded by their family, both of them took permission from their elders and left so that Vijay could learn magic.
Kaulit: Because of you, we didn''t get food yesterday. I had to convince them with great difficulty so that I could teach you and you could learn.
Vijay: You convinced them! But how?
Kaulit: You don’t need to know that.
Vijay: Tell me, how did you do it?
Kaulit: No.
<h4>Some time ago -</h4>
Kaulit: I fold my hands before you and request you. Please allow me to teach Vijay. He has an incredible talent.
Aditya: How can we believe that you can teach Vijay? We don’t care whether you are an Asura, a demon, a deity, a human, or something else. The only thing that matters to us is ability. Do you have that ability?
Kaulit: I don’t know if I have that ability or not, but one thing I do know for sure—Vijay understands everything I teach him. He grasps it with great dedication and joy, and that is what matters the most to me. And above all, I have made a promise to Vijay, which I must fulfill, even if it costs me my life.
Vijay’s great-grandfather (smiling): Well said. Your words are convincing, but before you teach Vijay, you must pass a test.

Kaulit: What kind of test? Please tell me.
Vijay’s great-grandfather: My daughter-in-law will test you because she was once a teacher. And let me tell you, no one has ever easily passed her test.
Kaulit: I accept. I will do my best.
Ratri (Vijay’s grandmother): Thank you, Father. Well then, Kaulit, let’s see if you have what it takes.
<h4>Some time later -</h4>
Ratri: Let’s go somewhere.
Kaulit: Wait, aren’t all of you coming?
Nensa: No, there’s no need for us to go. We can watch everything from here.
Kaulit: Alright, then let’s go.
Ratri: Very well, let’s proceed.
After this, Ratri takes them to a place.
Kaulit: We’re here? If your test is really dangerous, don’t you think it could cause great destruction to our world?
Ratri: Don’t worry, this isn’t our world. This is another dimension that only looks like our world.
Kaulit: What! Impossible.
Ratri: Oh? Don’t you believe it? That’s not good.
Kaulit: So, did you create this? What are your powers?
Ratri: My powers? Just understand that my abilities allow me to create dimensions and draw energy from higher and lower realms.
Kaulit: Amazing! That means you must be extremely powerful.
Ratri: Oh, don’t worry. I have renounced my past abilities. But enough talking. Now, your first test begins.
Kaulit (understanding the situation): So, what do I have to do?
Ratri (smiling): What do you have to do? You have to attain death.
