Meanwhile, right now Oconnell and Ajay are dealing with Benny. Oconnell's old friend who betrayed Oconnell, and thought of what kind of punishment to give him and Oconnell thought of something and threw Benny to the river.
Seeing this Ajay gave a look at him.
"What?" said Oconnell
"Nothing, is it okay to throw him like this?" asked Ajay
"Well, it is small for what he did to me." Said Oconnell
Ajay nodded in understanding.
Due to Ajay's stats being 10 times that of normal human being, he sensed someone approaching and said to Oconnell.
"Oconnell, go and bring Eve, Sofia and their luggage out of their room, NOW," said Ajay
"What? Me?, Why? And both Evelyn and Sofia's luggage at that too" said Oconnell unbelievable
"Yes, you now go." Said Ajay
"Why? And what do you want to do now?" asked Oconnell with a confused look on his face.
"Now is not the time to talk about that, the boat is about to catch fire. Now go and bring them here." Said Ajay
Stunned "What? How will the boat catch fire?" asked Oconnell
'Why would a boat catch fire when everything is normal?' thought Oconnell
"Get them and bring them here now, because this is the last time I will say this. If you don't go, I will throw you in the river now." Said Ajay seriously
Hearing this Oconnell shuddered "fine I will go." Said Oconnell
Then Oconnell said nothing. Ajay did not Know that how many Pharaoh guards were coming and he did not want is teammate to be in any danger.
This is real life, and not any fictional game or not a movie meaning anything can happen, and he didn't want to take any chances, so he cannot take any risk which can involve Evelyn.
Then Ajay went to see Jonathan who was playing with Americans and dragged him away while he walked over to Oconnell who was holding their luggage.
"Ajay, what's going on? Why did you say everyone to come here?" asked Eve
"No time to answer, jump into the river now." Said Ajay without giving them any kind of explanation
"What!?" everyone exclaimed in surprise.
"Are you kidding me Ajay?" asked Jonathan weirdly
This is night time you Know, why do you want to jump in the river?
And at the same time, gun shots can be heard from inside the rooms along with American people shout. Ajay's face became a bit dark.
The sounds became increasingly louder and louder, then Ajay came to Sofia and Oconnel's side, and simply lifted both of them and threw them into the river without any warning.
Then turned to both Jonathan and Eve, then came towards them.
Seeing this, "No need to throw me, I will jump." Saying that Jonathan jumped into the river.
Seeing Jonathan also jump into the river, Ajay turned towards Evelyn and smiled at her.
Seeing the smile at such a charming face, Evelyn first blushed and gulped. Then without saying anything, Ajay took Evelyn in a princess carry and then jumped into the river.
Coming to the top of the river, both Evelyn and Ajay being in each other arms, where Ajay holding Evelyn, and both of their faces being so close together.
And feeling the atmosphere being weird Ajay wanted to take this chance to kiss her.
"Ahem" but, suddenly a voice intervened shattering the atmosphere. Seeing that it was Jonathan, both of them separated themselves.
'Damn you bastard, does he really have to disturb at this time?' Ajay cursed Jonathan.
[Don't worry host, better luck next time] sounded the system's voice in his head.
Although it sounded like encouraging, but he couldn't help feel but think that the system was mocking him.
'Thanks, system' replied Ajay.
while Evelyn blushed thinking what just happened. But seeing none of them saying anything she tried to calm herself down.
Seeing the luggage floating away "All of you swim to the shore and forget about the luggage" said Ajay.
Listening to him everyone began swimming for a while, and they reached the shore and gasped for air for a while, fell to the ground and saw the boat burning.
The Americans were all fleeting when a shout came from the other side of the river.
"Oconnell! Oconnell! See even if you thrown me into the river, I am completely safe and sound." Benny bragged mockingly at Oconnell.
Seeing him Oconnell smiled and "Idiot benny, you are on the wrong side of the river for our destination" said smugly.
After hearing this, Benny dumbfounded, he then realized that he was really on the wrong side of the river and stopped speaking.
Since he didn't know what to say any more, he wanted find a way to other side of the river.
"We lost all of our equipment and our luggage. How are we supposed to reach Hamunaptra now?" exclaimed Eve.
"Nothing to be worried about, we can buy luggage and clothes nearby again and as for our equipment we have Oconnell for that, so no worries." Said Ajay.
The group gave him a strange awkward look.
Seeing them "What?" asked Ajay innocently.
"How do you know that the boat was going to catch fire?" asked Oconnell.
"Do you want to know about that?" asked Ajay
"Yes, we want to know so very much." Said all four of them.
Seeing them so eager and excited faces, Ajay smiled slily and lowered his voice "Don't tell anyone about it." Said Ajay as the four of them listened carefully.
"It is a secret." Said Ajay playfully
All the four of them had the urge to punch Ajay in the face, mainly when they saw his sly smile.
Exhausted, they decided to take rest for a bit and continue their journey to the nearby town.
In the early morning Ajay and his group came to the nearby town, brought camels and clothes and began to start their journey, through the endless desert of Egypt.
Time passed slowly and the group were moving steadily and soon the night came and they stopped for a while to fill their stomach, feeling as this place is not safe for resting, they continued their journey.
Sofia and Oconnel's camels were side by side, as the journey continued Sofia felt sleepy and she slept on Oconnell's shoulder, seeing this Ajay smirked and said.
"Tch, what a romantic couple in the night desert, can you please show some concern for us singles?" said Ajay with a fake envy.
Hearing this, both Oconnell and Jonathan's lips twitched, then turned to him and thought 'You are one to talk, who was the one that fed us dog food in the river.'
But they didn't say anything and looked at Eve who did not bother with them, because if she intervened she would be teased by Ajay again and didn't know what to do at that time. She is already embarrassed and didn't want to be embarrassed again.
'And why does he think that we are a couple from the starting? At the same time, he is teasing both Sofia and me, why though' thought Oconnell and he was about to ask Ajay but the next sentence made him shut up and completely speechless.
"Well, if you are not able to stop your love, we can arrange your marriage at Hamunaptra. Isn't it a romantic scene where both you and Sofia get married in the city of the undead. In the future, you can even tell your children about it, they will be thrilled to know" said Ajay playfully.
Hearing this, only one thought came to Oconnell's mind 'This guy has a serious brain problem, do not mess with him.'
Smiling "Don't you guys want to know how the boat caught fire? Then, you can turn your right upside and the reason is in that top mountain" said Ajay casually.
Oconnell and the group looked up at the direction Ajay has said and there they saw a group of people on horses on top of the mountain.
And then turning to Ajay "Are they the people who attacked the boat?" asked Oconnell.
"Yes, they are the people but don't worry you will become friends with them in the future although at first, they will try to kill us. But still nothing to be worried about." Said Ajay
Listening this, Oconnell confirmed this person had some very serious brain problems and he stopped talking, and soon the night passed then the group met with the other American group.
As time passed slowly, it became morning.
"Damn it, where is Hamunaptra? There is nothing here except for sand on all sides." Asked the group of Americans while facing Benny.
Benny straightened himself and "it will show itself when the sun rises." Said both Benny and Oconnell at the same time.
"Oh! So it is like a sunflower that only comes out when the sun rises up. Does it need some maintenance work at night?" asked Ajay innocently.
Hearing this, all the people present there looked at Ajay weirdly, and thinking does this guy have some problems with his brain. Leaving aside Jonathan and Sofia, even Eve looked at Ajay weirdly like he is some kind of extinct animal.
"Okay stop looking at me like that, I know that I am handsome you are all making me blush and I belong to Evelyn, you all can't have any ideas about me okay." Said Ajay shyly.
Seeing Ajay acting like this, all Americans had an expression of disgust on their faces and controlling their urge to beat this guy's shit out of it. Even Sofia controlled herself and had a disgusted face and Jonathan, who was beside Ajay moved away from him like some kind of virus.
As for Evelyn she was repeating his words in her mind 'I belong to Evelyn… I belong to Evelyn…' coming back to her senses she blushed and looked at Ajay angrily.
"Look the sun is rising, and now I am making a bet that whoever reaches that place will be receiving a gift from me, and it is a very valuable gift from me. If you don't believe me, you can also ask Jonathan about it, he knows that I am not stingy with money." Said Ajay loudly
All the people who heard this, turned their head towards Jonathan. And Jonathan ignoring their stares asked excitedly.
"Ajay, do you really mean what you said about the reward?"
Smiling "Yes, it is way more better than what I gave to warden at that time, you can look forward to it." Said Ajay.
Hearing and looking at Jonathan Excited face Eve, Sofia, Oconnell and American's opened their mouth to ask what did he give to warden to make him react like that.
After getting some answers from Jonathan, everyone including Eve looked at Ajay like he is some sort of treasure trove. Where as Eve thinking he is very mysterious and is still hiding something, but did not ask him any questions believing he will tell her himself one day.
At the same time someone shouted that the place is now visible, then all people turned their heads towards the place as the sunrays has fallen under all the astonished gazes, and some expectant eyes then the 'Hamunaptra: The land of the dead' is finally formed.
Although Ajay knew the plot, he was also surprised and thought 'sure enough, seeing in a movie and having a real experience are totally different.'
And now seeing that the place is visible, all of them Americans including Ajay's group raced to hamunaptra.
Now, all people are racing towards hamunaptra with an excited expression as they were like competing for two reasons. One being the place of Hamunaptra and the second is the bet made by Ajay, the rewards were too tempting.
At the same time as shown in the movie, Eve reached the first place. But as absurd as it is although Sofia was not present in the movie, she also reached first at the same time. And to confirm my suspicion, I asked if Sofia and Eve really had reached first place at the same time.
