(Note: All winners of the upcoming Sakthi Sword Competition will be able to choose their own sword.
The sword that Lakshmana and Nakula currently have is a fake Sakti sword.
All princes and princesses would have fake swords like this.
Only after winning the competition will the princes and princesses and the victorious people be given the sword of power.
After attaining the sword of power, they can choose their own teacher.
There are a total of 5 Raja Gurus here.
The winning contestants can choose one of these 5 gurus as their teacher and study under them. ) )
Both Lakshmana and Nakula arrived at the place where the competition was taking place.
There was still a week left before the competition, and both of them had arrived at the venue before that.
A man, hiding his face, followed them wherever they went, unbeknownst to them.
There were crowds of people standing near the venue of the competition that day.
Nakula and Lakshmana both went into the crowd and looked.
At that time, a woman on the street was crying outside the courthouse, saying that she hadn't seen her child for two days.
Then Nakulan went near them and asked what had happened.
If my daughter leaves the house in the morning, saying she's coming to play with her friends 2 days ago.
She didn't come when it was time for lunch.
She always arrives on time for dinner, but she didn't come that day.
I also went to her friends' house in search of her.
When I went there and inquired about her, everyone said she hadn't come.
I took them with me and searched the whole city but she was nowhere to be found.
I am scared. I have filed a complaint in this court but they have not taken any action yet. The woman was crying and saying that they have not even asked my daughter's name yet.
Nakula and Lakshmanan took the woman and started walking inside the court.
Then two guards at the courthouse gate stopped them.
Seeing that, the prince's security force, which had been hiding for so long, came and stood in front of the two of them.
The security force commander stood up and ordered the two men guarding the courthouse door to kneel down.
When they learned that they were members of the Prince's Security Forces, they both knelt down and apologized.
The girl saw that and joined them in the procession.
All the people present there knelt down before Nakula and Lakshmana.
Lakshmana asked everyone to stand up and took the woman inside the court.
Upon hearing the news that Lakshmanan and Nakula were coming, the judge of the court came out on his own accord, paid homage to them both, and took them inside.
As soon as they entered, Nakul asked the woman to come inside and asked the judge why she didn't accept the woman's request.
"You must have known that there was a protest at the courthouse gate," Nakulan asked the judge, "but why didn't you notice it?"
What you are saying, Judge, is true. The king has ordered that people can come directly to the court to make any request. Despite the same order, we are receiving many requests every day. We do not have enough people to investigate those requests.
Not only that, but we ourselves must arrange the necessary security, competition rules, and venue for the competition that is going to take place.
Not only that, but we have also been given the task of accommodating all the young people who come to this competition.
How can we fulfill small requests when we have so much work to do?
Not only that, a girl child goes missing in this city every week, and she is only 15 years old.
Similarly, a girl child has been missing every week for almost 6 months.
Despite our extensive search, we were unable to find the culprit.
While the judge was telling what had happened, the woman knelt there and cried, listening to what he had to say.
Then Lakshmana, you cannot refuse government work, you must do it.
But for the past 6 months, a girl child has been missing every week, and you should have given priority to finding her. You are saying that you couldn't do it because you had government work to do. Don't you know how disgusting this is?
"Why haven't you accepted those demands till now? Give me a truthful answer," Lakshmanan asked.
The judge hesitated, saying that it was unnecessary to find all the missing children, all of whom were slave children.
Hearing this, both Nakula and Lakshmana became angry.
Then Lakshmana told the judge that he was not able to find the slave child because he was four years old.
"If that's the case, what are you talking about? Don't you think the life of a slave child is worth living?" he shouted. "Keep your tongue shut."
The judge knelt down and apologized.
After that, the judge asked the woman to leave and started talking to Nakula and Lakshmana.
Judge Lakshmanan and Nakulan looked at both of them and said that big families might be involved in this case, why princes like you might be involved, that's why we won't accept the missing person case if it comes up.
Hearing that, Nakulan asked the judge, "How do you think members of the royal family could have been involved in this case?"
The judge said that one girl child per week should be given to children under the age of 15. More importantly, all those who were abducted were child slaves.
Even if a child is kidnapped and sold into slavery, there is no serious punishment.
This government law states that we have no concern for what happens to slaves.
Even if I think I can punish them myself, they will escape the law.
Even if an ordinary man kills a slave, there is no punishment for him, as you know very well, Prince.
Not only that, but the judge said, "Come with me for a while," and took me to an unused room behind the courthouse.
When the judge opened the door to the room, both Nakulan and Lakshmanan were shocked to see 25 dead women lying in front of them.
Nakula, shocked to see them, asked who they were and why they were lying here as corpses.
When the judge said that these 25 people were children who had been missing for 6 months, Lakshmanan and Nakulan were shocked to hear that.
A week after the first child went missing, a baby's body was found floating in the river. The guard who was guarding the mother near the river carried the body and brought it to the courthouse.
It was only when we investigated that we learned that this was the first child to go missing, and not only that, but the mother's second child had also gone missing.
Thus we continued our investigation until the 5 children went missing, but we were unable to find anything.
We discovered a mystery: only after kidnapping the next child did we find the body of the child we kidnapped before.
After that, the judge told Lakshmanan and Nakulan that we, the people, had banned them from going near the river.
