New Friends and New Horizons
Arjun's eyes lit up at Krishna's question. "Yes, absolutely! I would love to stay and see your magic level test."
Krishna grinned. "Perfect. But first, let me introduce you to some of my friends."
With that, Krishna led Arjun to the top of the building. Awaiting them was a magnificent viman, a flying chariot shimmering with intricate carvings and radiating a soft, golden glow. Arjun's eyes widened with amazement as they boarded it.
As they soared into the sky, Arjun was captivated by the breathtaking view below. The city was a mesmerizing blend of ancient and futuristic architecture. Towering structures twisted into shapes he had never imagined possible, while lush gardens and crystalline waterways added a touch of serene beauty.
"Is this part of Dwarka?" Arjun asked, still marveling at the sights below.
Krishna chuckled. "No, this isn't my kingdom. This is Hastinapur, where the Magic Level test will be held. The magic training academies, or Gurukuls, are located here. Unfortunately, our kingdom doesn't have these facilities."
Arjun nodded, absorbing the new information. Hastinapur was a place of wonder, and he couldn't wait to explore it further.
Their journey continued until the viman suddenly halted in front of another towering building. The abrupt stop nearly caused Arjun to lose his balance, but Krishna, accustomed to such movements, remained steady and laughed at his friend's reaction.
"Careful, Arjun," Krishna said with a wink. "You'll get used to it."
They both jumped off the viman onto the rooftop of the building. As they climbed down, they found themselves standing in front of a vast garden where four men were sparring with each other. The sparring stopped abruptly as the men noticed Krishna and ran towards him, greeting him warmly.
Krishna turned to Arjun, smiling. "Let me introduce you to my friends. This is Bheem." He pointed to a huge man, easily 6'2" with a massive build, exuding strength and power. It seemed like all he did was eat and exercise.
"And these are Nakul and Sahdev, twin brothers." The twins looked identical, both lean yet muscular, with an unmistakable spark of curiosity in their eyes.
"Lastly, this is Yudhisthir," Krishna continued, gesturing towards a calm figure. Yudhisthir's face was serene, with a depth and tranquility that reminded Arjun of the ocean.
Yudhisthir stepped forward, greeting Arjun with a warm smile. "Welcome, Arjun."
Arjun felt an immediate sense of camaraderie with these men. They were not only strong and skilled but also welcoming and friendly. He narrated his own story, how he ended up in this world, and how Krishna found him.
The four friends listened intently, their expressions shifting from curiosity to amazement as Arjun recounted his journey. When he finished, Yudhisthir spoke first.
"Arjun, what an incredible tale."
Bheem, who had a playful nature, laughed heartily. "So, are you interested in attending the Magic Level test?"
Arjun's eyes gleamed with excitement. "Yes!" he replied enthusiastically.
Bheem's laughter grew louder. "Good! We're also taking the test this time. See you there, brother!"
