67 Why you hate Islam...?

Inside Aarv's room,

His gaming pod opened as Aarv got out of it. Even though 8 months had passed inside the historical quest, in real-time, only 8 days have passed. Still, Aarv's whole body was stiff because of the 8-day 'rest' he took inside the gamin cabin.

The first thing he did after he got out was to stretch his body lightly.

"Pop… Pop…"

As he stretched, popping sounds came from his bones. Although he did not feel any physical fatigue, he was still exhausted by all the mental trauma he got through during the historical quest.

'Let's just rest for the day…'

Aarv decide to take the day off as he lay on his King size bed. After months of restless hard work, he felt secure and his mind relaxed completely. Soon, he fell into a deep sleep.

It was the next day when he opened his eyes. He finally felt refreshed. After waking up, the first thing he did was check his phone. Although he seldomly used social media, when he actually checked his notifications, he got shocked to find that he nearly got 10,000 messages along with 500 missed calls.

Although most of them were repeated messages, he still felt that it was too much.

While he was thinking of disabling his accounts, he got a call from an unknown number. When he checked on truecaller, it showed the name, 'Ayan Quereshi'.

Aarv did not have any impression or memory of such a name but still, he decided to pick up the call.

"Hello…" A deep voice came from the other side of the phone. Aarv did not recognize the voice but still replied,

"Hello"

"Is this Aarv Bhosle…?" The deep voice asked.

"Yes, Who is this…?"

"Ohh… Hello, I'm Ayan Quereshi speaking. I just wanted to ask one question regarding the Historical Quest you cleared yesterday…"

"Go ahead…" At first, Aarv thought the other party was some kind of reporter who wanted to sk some questions regarding the Historical quest. But, His doubts soon disappeared as the person on the phone said,

"When do you hate Islam….?"

"Huh…?" Surprised by the sudden question,

"WHY DO YOU HATE ISLAM…?" The other party asked in an even louder voice which made Aarv flinch with annoyance.

"I have no idea what are you talking about…" Aarv said in a calm voice. Although this was the first time he had received threats, his father already educated him on how to handle calls like these. These calls are recorded and then shared on social media to inflict public rage on the people.

Aarv was too familiar with such a call. He knew that during the call the other person will try to provoke you but you have to keep your calm regardless of what the other person says.

"What…? You don't have any idea…? Then why did you kill all the Muslims inside the Historical quest….? Are you trying to spread hate against Islam…?" the person on the phone bombarded Aarv with questions. His main goal was to link the incident to Islamophobia.

How could Aarv not understand his intentions?

He calmly replied, "Ohh… Are they Islamist…? I thought I just killed a bunch of traitors that betrayed us…"

"How did they betray you…? They are obviously following their ancestors. Assisting him to with the war…"

When Aarv heard the answer, He snickered inside and said, "Well okay they are not traitors, they just followed their ancestors… I killed then because they were acting against my ancestors… "

"You…" The other party turned silent at Aarv's response. Although he wanted to refute, but there were no words. At that time Aarv heard a faint 'Click' sound.

'The call was being recorded…'

Aarv came to conclusion but he still wanted to hear what the other party would say with the recorder turned off.

"You just wait and see… The whole city will be against you and we will not rest until you die…"

The other party threatened Aarv with a serious tone.

'Pft…' Aarv tried to hold back his laughter for a while and said seriously, "Well, I will give you 2 hours. Run as far as you can…"

"Youre…!!"

Before the person could finish, Aarv hung up the phone.

'Sigh~ People these days

Aarv thought as he opened WhatsApp and sent a message to a private number.

"XXXX number. Name Ayan Quereshi, Capture…"

Few simple words but Aarv send them with deep killing intent. After sending the message, Aarv got up from his bed to do his morning exercises.

As he was going outside, He saw his father in the living room looking at him with a strange expression. Aarv tried to hide it, but how could he hide it from his Father…?

"There is killing intent lingering around you…" Major General Sudansh Bhosle said with a deep voice. Aarv felt like his father could see through all his weaknesses as he helplessly went toward his father and told the entire incident.

"Hahahahaha…" Sudansh Bhosle looked at Aarv and laughed loudly.

"So my son is getting popular nowadays…."

"Well let us meet the person who threatened you…" As Major general said this, he got up from the sofa and started walking outside…

Aarv quickly followed after him thinking, "The other guy will probably be tortured to death…" He felt pity for the person who threatened him. The reason, was because his father had moved…!

He faintly remembered that, during his childhood, his father received countless threats from the people. So much so that the whole family of three would constantly live in fear. But, his father never feared anyone and got rid of all the people who threatened him personally after he became the Major general.
