Rhehan looked at the man in surprise for a few seconds, like a maniac. He did not know what to ask him anything further, now. Whereas, Raol was a feeling a bit relaxed as the burden he had just lifted from his own heart had been placed right on top of Rhehan"s heart.
"Sir, I would understand, if you want me to resign now, for wasting your time over a silly auction." Raol pursed his lips.
Rhehan looked at the man in surprise and anger. "If you know so much about it Raol, than you must be knowing that calling that auction silly, will make my blood boil to the core! You would certainly not want that...would you Raol??" Rhehan stood up angrily, glaring at the man like an angry lion, ready to pounce.
Raol backed off immediately, getting a different sort of dangerous vibes from Rhehan. "You....You..Sir!?"
Rhehan came back to his senses hearing his words, and looked at Raol in confusion. "Huh?"
"Are you ok sir!?" Raol backed off a bit slightly more, for the first time, fearing his boss.
"Yes! Yes! Sorry! So why did you think, was it important for me to attend that auction?" Rhehan looked at the man suspiciously, trying to test how much he knows!
"Don"t make me say it sir, you will think I am crazy! And I don"t want to lie to you any longer!" Raol backed off a bit again as Rhehan glared at him angrily again.
"Say it!!" Rhehan banged his hand on the wall, in anger, making it crack up a bit!
Raol looked at the crack in surprise and covered his face in fear. "Sir, I was just doing my duty. I was told to remind you of your duty towards your sword. I had to make you to buy that sword. I was in the same event too, when you bought it. Forgive me sir! Forgive me!" Raol was now on the verge of crying and Rhehan"s anger dissipated again, looking at the scared mouse.
"What is wrong with me? Why do I get hyper all of a sudden and lose control, when it comes to that auction. Wait a second, you said the sword? Did you just say SWORD!!?" Rhehan gaped at the man in surprise. d.a.m.n!! How does he know about it?
"Y...Yes...I did! I was the one to send you there, so offcourse I would know about it!!" Raol narrowed his eyes at the man, as if stating the obvious logic.
"Ahh!! So you were the reason, I got crazy after that auction. You made me go berserk and I bought that sword. Now you will be the reason, why I would die using that sword against a dangerous enemy!!" Rhehan pouted his face sadly, not knowing whether to curse Raol or to curse his fate!
"No sir! The sword is meant to be for you! You had to anyhow get it, since it belongs to you!" Raol tried to make the man understand.
"How?! How do you know so much!! Who are you Raol?" Rhehan sat down on the couch, almost falling on it with sadness. The more he wanted to hide about the sword, the more he felt it was being revealed. The more he wanted to avoid his fate, the closer he was getting to it!
"Sir! I don"t know how to answer this. Even if I told you, you would not believe me!!" Raol bent down on his knees, looking at the man"s sad face.
"Do you think, I would not believe you. You are probably going to say something, which I already know!" Rhehan pressed the sides of his temples, feeling a headache coming through. He was preparing himself, for what the man was going to say next.
"Ohk! I am going to say this. Sir, I have been getting dreams since many days, telling me that "I am Pilis" and I have to fulfill my duty to remind you, about your duty towards your sword. He... He... himself told me to do so..." Raol spoke with slight hesitation and fear.
"He? Who is he?" Rhehan frowned, looking at him. "Master Xio Lee?"
"Ahh! No sir! King Khufu!!" Raol closed his eyes, finally speaking the truth.
Rhehan"s heart skipped a beat, hearing that name. What he had not yet shared with Rose, his a.s.sistant was already talking about it, as if it is a very casual topic. So the recurrant dreams ate true!! They were not dreams, but a vision of my past happenings!! "Who is King Khufu?"
"Sir...Sir....Y....You!" Raol pursed his lips again.
"So he himself told you to , do this duty towards him?" Rhehan asked again as if in a trance "But why you Raol? Why are you so important to him!"
"Beacause sir, I am Pilis! The second born brother of King Khufu, who placed the sword with his body after he died. I burried his coffin with my own hands.. and... and...." Raol looked at Rhehan blinking several times.
"And... And wrote that egyptian book!"
"Book! What book?" Rhehan frowned, for the first time not knowing what he meant.
"Sir the ancient egyptian book, in which I wrote your and Miso"s entire story, for you and her to read in the next lives. It was meant to tell you, what happened after Khufu died and where the sword was hidden by me. Also the true purpose of sword was written in it! I wrote the book to guide us of every detail, we require in this birth." Raol got up from the floor and stood up nervousely.
Rhehan suddenly remembered the book, which was left in his study and went missing in Malaysia. "Ammos! By Pilis!? Is it the book you are talking about?"
Raol who by now, was fearing the entry in a mental asylum by his boss, gaped at the man in surprise. The name that had been, buzzing in his dreams was suddenly spoken by Rhehan so casually. "Yes...Yes sir !! This one!! Have you seen it? Sir I have been getting the dreams of saving the book. As if the book is in wrong hands! My book is being misused!! I have to get it back!!" Suddenly anger filled up Raol"s heart at the thought of somebody mis -using the book.
"That book was dropped by Rose in my car, which was earlier in master"s house. Then from my car it was kept in my study, by the house staff. From my study it reached Malaysia with my doc.u.ments .. and then... and then... it vanished from the room. It is no longer with me!!!" Rhehan slapped his forehead, understanding everything!
