Chapter 85: Wishwa Saakshi oath

85- Wishwa Saakshi oath

I replied without any hesitation

Yes, I accept it. As long as you dont ask for my life and dont ask me to be your slave, I accept any condition that you have.

Actually, if there was someone was in my place, then he/she would have also added a point like as long as your condition does not endanger my life, I will accept.

But I did not add this point because, as they are putting conditions if front of me then it is most likely that there will be a condition where I will have to risk my life. Also, as I want to train myself in life and death situations, so this kind of things are the best situations.

Seeing me accept their demands, Bertha and Sheela looked at each other and smiled cunningly.

Just looking at that smile, made me feel that they have plotted something but since it is my problem, I will have to brace any hurdle that will come ahead.

Sheela turned to me and said,

Very well then. How about we perform the (Wishwa Saakshi) oath and let the Heaven be the witness?

Hearing this, at first, I was confused but after few moments my confusion turned into shock and amazement.

I read the information related to the Wishwa Saakshi oath only in the books and thought that it was just a myth.

Wishwa Saakshi oath, is a type of oath which when performed, Heaven will be the witness to it and the people who are bound by this oath have to follow it to the word or else, heaven will deliver a punishment or a curse or some bad thing will happen to the one whoever breaks/breaches the oath.

Now, this might not sound a serious thing. But it is actually very serious. Because the one who breaks or breaches the oath is most likely to die. And the scariest part is that the persons death can be in any form.

Now, in the usual novels that I have read, there Heavens punishment means Lightning strike.

But in reality, it is said that the Heavens punishment will be in the form of something which changes from person to person. But the punishment is said to be so severe that it makes the person regret his action and it is comparable to the punishments of 18 levels of hell. Which means - getting a quick death might be the happiest thing for the person who is receiving heavens punishment.

When performing this oath, the people involved are bound by Heavens will and their souls are imprinted with a contract. This contract is the proof of oath.

And due to this oath being so dangerous, many people do not even consider choosing this.

So, I was shocked when Sheela said we will perform the Wishwa Saakshi oath. And this made me hesitate and reconsider, if I should take their help or not. Because from the way I see it, making Wishwa Saakshi oath tells me that their conditions will be difficult and pain is ass.

Seeing me hesitate, Sheela and Bertha did not disturb me and they looked at me quietly waiting for an answer.

After hesitating for a minute, I decided to take the risk. Because I felt that getting the poison cured is the important thing then worrying about some future problems. And I dont think I have much time left. Because even if I increased my Vitality stat and I can live for 4 years, that does not mean that I can find a cure with 4 years.

So, taking a deep breath, I replied

Alright then, I agree with performing the (Wishwa Saakshi) oath.

Hearing my reply, there was a hint of surprise in Berthas eyes but it was quickly hidden and she spoke,

Very well, I like your courage.

Sheela, then let's begin with ritual and be done with this. I can see that Orochi is little eager to solve his problem.

Hearing this Sheela nodded and it was decided that we perform the Wishwa Saakshi oath under open sky. So, we moved out of the room and climbed the bungalow. Then both Sheela and Bertha started chanting some Mantras.

As they were chanting, the sky which was clear was now filled with dark clouds and strong wind started blowing. After a minute or 2, the chanting was completed. Bertha and Sheela, looked at each other and nodded, then they spoke simultaneously,

I, Bertha Urag, make an oath that I will help Orochi solve his poison issue and in exchange he will complete my 2 conditions. I request that Heaven be witness to this oath.

I, Sheela Lama, make an oath that I will help Orochi solve his poison issue and in exchange he will complete my 2 conditions. I request that Heaven be witness to this oath.

After they completed their oath, then looked at me and nodded. I understood their action, so I also took an oath.

I, Orochi, make an oath that as long as Bertha Urag and Sheela Lama, help me solve the poison in my body, I will fulfill their any 2 conditions each, as long as they dont ask for my life or ask me to be their slave.

To be honest, I never thought about a proper family name after I decided to change my actual name from Raj to Orochi. But after this incident, I will have to decide a proper family name, because I dont want to use the Leon name as I dont want to have any relation with them and it will leak my information.

With that Bertha took out a dagger and cut her palm and let the blood flow. Then Bertha passed the dagger to Sheela and she did the same thing. After that she passed the dagger to me and I too cut my palm.

Host is bleeding, host will lose 1 HP per 3 seconds.

I ignored the message.

And as the blood dripped on the ground for few seconds.

Sham

Our blood started shining and dark clouds which covered the sky had a gap. And from that gap, a ray of light fell on us and once again I heard the system notification.

Host has made the (Wishwa saakshi) oath.
