Chapter 225

They were caught in a dilemma.

Just then, Kavia appeared.

He was originally the first to arrive, but Shiva said that he could take charge. Now that Shiva was bound, Kavia had been waiting for a long time, felt that it was time for him to make his move.

Kavia's appearance naturally attracted the attention of the two Aspected God, as well as the attention of the gods in the Heaven Realm who were watching the battlefield alongside Brahma.

"You..."

Although he didn't know who the other person was, Vishnu could feel a sense of familiarity and nostalgia from the person who called him.

Shiva, having made a promise he had made but failed to fulfill, remained silent.

"You don't even remember who you are."

Kavia let out a long sigh of relief. A blue light gradually emanated from his body, like the warm sun of spring, exuding a gentle aura.

"You're joking."

Upon hearing this from the unknown silver-haired man, the amnesiac Vishnu responded in a rare joking tone.

"Who told you that? I don't know who I am."

"Then you tell me."

Kavia approached the bound Vishnu, stared into his eyes, and asked, "Who are you?"

"I... I..."

After a moment of silence, Vishnu spoke again, "All call me Lord, or Narayana."

"Then where did you get the power to all the weapons and Narayana Weapon you possess? It came from Vishnu dwells in the Ocean of Milk."

Kavia said quietly.

"He is the lover of Lakshmi, my friend. You are fighting against Shiva, who has come to help you recall your memories. We have known each other since the birth of the Universe."

Don't test my patience; it will only infuriate me.

Vishnu turned to Shiva, who remained silent, and said, "Leave now, let me concentrate on the battle."

The words of the God of Preservation were directed at Shiva, but were actually spoken to Kavia.

Then, the five young female devotees who had used their blessings to make Vishnu forget his memories and thus marry him also came to this place.

Vishnu's expression softened upon seeing his beloved arrive.

"Are you all alright? Get out of here quickly, I'll be back after I defeat this minotaur."

The girl who led the group of five pursed her lips and cast a 'guilty' look at Vishnu.

"No, from the arrival of Kavia and the Wrath of Shiva, we have realized that we have taken away the protector of the entire world, and our hearts are filled with guilt. It was our mistake to make you lose your memory and then ask to regain it."

"Narayana, you belong not only to us, but to the world."

"We cannot sacrifice the whole world for our own happiness."

Therefore, we must release you from our oath.

As soon as the five finished speaking, due to the contact of desires, Vishnu immediately recalled everything that had happened to him.

How did she respond to Jixiang's prank, thereby losing her memory and becoming the lover of the five people, and even fighting against Shiva...?

However, for Vishnu, who had regained his memories, the most important thing was what happened in the room when he lost his memory and became the lover of the five men.

What would the five young women, who are Vishnu's lovers and suffer from amnesia, do with Vishnu inside the house?

The Answer is simple.

Watch the dance, or more precisely, watch the dance of Mohini, an avatar of Vishnu.

The reason for this was that the five girls said in unison after entering the house.

"Narayana, we have heard that when the Ocean of Milk was churned, you transformed into Mohini and danced to win the Amrita for the gods."

"... Mohini? I..."

When Vishnu regained consciousness, he found himself uncontrollably transformed into Mohini.

"Yes, yes, I wonder if you, Mohini, reported to the god Kavia back then!"

Upon hearing this, Mohini asked blankly, "Gaga... who was that again...?"

"Although we made Narayana forget his memories, it was for Mohini's own good."

One of the five shook Mohini's shoulder, "That's a very common story, isn't it? Amnesiacs can still remember someone they can't forget, someone incredibly important to them. It's so romantic..."

"Someone I can't forget... someone who is incredibly important..."

Mohini pointed to his lips, somewhat confused.

"Who was it again...?"

The five girls immediately showed expressions of disappointment upon seeing this, and then the girl in the lead cautiously asked:

"Mohini, did you have any thoughts at that time?"

"... idea?"

As if remembering something, Mohini chuckled sheepishly, his face flushed as if he'd had a few drinks, "I think I kind of want someone to hug me, hehe..."

Seeing Mohini like this, the five men immediately clapped and cheered.

"That's fantastic! That's exactly what Mohini was thinking. You must be thinking of Kavia. The reason we became Narayana's lovers and made Narayana forget his memories was so that you, Mohini, could succeed."

Even if you say that...

Mohini quietly shook his head from side to side, his long red hair swaying gently. "I don't know him either."

After much deliberation, the five decided to have Mohini dance in order to evoke their memories from the past.

"Okay, who is it? I really want him to hug me, hehe..."

Although it only lasted a few seconds, Mohini showed a smile as if he had finally waited for that kind of smile.

Even though it's just a fleeting memory, the indescribable emotions it evoked made it feel so beautiful.

"But why won't you hug me? Waaah..."

At that moment, her voice sounded as innocent as a child's.

The above describes what happened in the palace between Vishnu and the five men before Shiva's attack.

When Vishnu thought about all this, he felt numb. Leaving aside the fact that he felt somewhat embarrassed about fighting Shiva, let alone the thought of Kavia...

Vishnu then decided to skip the topic and simply gave an awkward smile.

"Haha, Kasyapa, Shiva, I was so wrong. I failed to recognize you two. This battle lasted so long, and you tried to restore my memories, to make me realize my power and mission, but I failed to comprehend it. I am truly sorry."

Shiva, who had been glanced at by Kavia, also revealed a slightly forced smile.

"Vishnu, the battle between you and me proves that you and I are equals; neither is weaker, neither is stronger."

"That's right, we are the Four-Aspected Gods."

As the two exuded an atmosphere of harmony, Kavia spoke, looking up at the sky.

"Right, Brahma?"

Called by Kavia, Brahma felt embarrassed to remain in the Heaven Realm and watch with the other gods, so he instantly appeared before the three gods.

"Haha, indeed... just as you said Kavia..."

Brahma blinked and smiled.

"This Lila battle between Narayana, Great God, and Kavia is of extraordinary significance."

In stark contrast to the forced smiles of Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva were the subtle smiles of the five young women beside them.

Praise be to Narayana! Praise be to the Great God!

"Homage to Kavia, homage to Brahma."

The five of them sang the hymn appropriately.

But what they really wanted to say was, "Praise Kavia! Praise be to Mohini!"

In conclusion, the matter of Vishnu came to an end, and peace returned to the Three Worlds once again.

Chapter 294 Destined, the Divine Lila.

During the great battle between the amnesiac Vishnu and Shiva, one extremely famous Deity was missing from the pantheon of gods watching alongside Brahma—

Indra.

Well, although Indra was also worried about the battle between the two Aspected God, he thought that since Kavia was there, it shouldn't be a big problem.

Therefore, unlike other gods who gathered around Brahma to watch the 'Livestream,' he rested comfortably in the Royal Palace.

But by sheer coincidence, the Rishi Sage Narada, who connects gods and men, came to visit.

"My Heavenly Emperor, in the region under Varuna's jurisdiction, I saw an extraordinary talent. He was lifted by the wind, flew across the ocean, captured Lion as a pet, and commanded the submission of birds and fish. If he continues his arduous cultivation, he will surely become an extraordinary being."

Sage Narada may have said it casually, but Indra, who once killed a Rishi out of fear that someone else would cultivate diligently and steal his position, was certainly very cautious.

Ascetic practices are one thing, but that's for the future and too far off for now. What truly caught Indra's attention was the territory under the jurisdiction of the sea god Varuna.

He recalled how, in his extreme Wrath, Shiva had thrown that ball of fire into the sea...

Therefore, upon further reflection, Indra felt it was unlikely that he would coincidentally transform into a human or Asura...

Even when Narada was gone, during the most intense battle between the two gods, Indra couldn't help but wonder whether Narada had disappeared or transformed into something else.

Driven by prolonged anxiety, Indra decided to Sage Narada was merely a normal being or the Shiva's Wrath from years past. Thus, Indra rode a golden Chariot woven from lightning, carrying some gods and Sage of the Sacrifices, from the Heaven Realm to the Underworld Realm.

However, for some unknown reason, Indra's Chariot suddenly became stuck in the mud in a desolate place and could not move.

Even Indra himself and the Sage of the Sacrifices were powerless to help.

"Indra, discard it."

"No!"

Indra resolutely refused the Sage of the Sacrifices's kind offer.

Indra felt that he was a Heavenly Emperor, and yet he had encountered such a humiliating situation as his Chariot getting stuck in the mud. Even the fools like the Asura would laugh themselves to death if they knew. Moreover, abandoning the chariot and running away was just too shameful.

The Heavenly Emperor thought it was just a matter of his Chariot getting stuck in the mud, and that it would be easy to fix with a little more effort and time. He thought it was a huge joke that he, with so many gods and Sage of the Sacrifices, would be helpless against a mere place.

But then, no matter what the gods did, they couldn't pull Indra's Chariot out of the mud. This made the previously confident Indra somewhat anxious, and the gods who were with Indra were equally anxious—

"I'll help you."

A voice rang out, and the next second Indra's Chariot was freed from the mud.

Unlike the joyful gods, Indra felt a complex mix of emotions as he looked at the suddenly appearing child.

Because Indra had already recognized that familiar aura emanating from this person— Shiva's Wrath.

The one who came to help Indra pull out his Chariot was none other than Jalandhara.

Earlier that day, the Jalandhara, who was returning home with his Mermaid mother, happened to see Indra's Chariot stuck in the mud, and the gods were powerless to help.

At that moment, Jalandhara's mother looked at the gods led by Indra with great wariness. Then, seeing Jalandhara wanting to go and help, she took his hand and whispered, "Jalandhara, they are gods. Don't easily help them."

"But Kavia is a god too, why can't he receive Jin? They're in trouble, and Kavia also told me that if I see anything, I should help as much as I can."

"Kavia is a god of Aspected God, not a celestial being; they're different..."

The Mermaid was so worried because her unborn child, who was still in an egg, was accidentally crushed by the sea god Varuna.

"I heard from Makara that Kama, the Love God, is quite good."

Jalandhara released the Mermaid's hand, "Don't worry, I'll be back soon."

Returning to the present, Indra, gazing upon the Jalandhara, felt a complex mix of emotions.

He understood that Shiva's anger stemmed from him, so this child who had helped him, as an embodiment of that anger, could naturally also threaten him.

Therefore--

"No! Indra."

The Sage of the Sacrifices had witnessed Shiva's Wrath with Indra and persuaded Shiva to abandon it, immediately saw through Indra's plan. He gripped his Walking Stick and shouted.

However, Indra completely disregarded his objections and threw his weapon Vajra, at Jin, who Jalandhara.
