He Is A Nymphomaniac. Chapter 226 - The Artifact!

The gun-man aimed again at Rhehan's head. His head was now full of anger and desperation. d.a.m.n! How can I miss the target twice!? It's impossible!

He calmed himself down, aiming again at Rhehan. What he did not realise that the bullet he had hit earlier, had hit something and reverted back in the exactly same direction.

In just another second, the bullet hit the gun-man's head, making him fall down on the ground. Before he knew what happened to him, he was dead!

In the other corner of the parking, Rose was looking at Rhehan's arm in astonishment.

"How Rhehan? How?" Rose gaped at Rhehan in astonishment.

"What are you talking about?" Rhehan frowned at her.

"This....This bracelet! Oh! I remember! That chimpanzee gave you a bracelet!" Rose was now touching the bracelet in amazement.

"Yeah! So?"

"Are you sure it's this bracelet the chimpanzee gifted you?" Rose was looking at Rhehan's face now. Her expression were full of disbelief!

"Offcourse I am sure Rose! I have not removed it since. But what's wrong with you?" Rhehan looked at Rose, who was once again checking out his arm.

She noticed two wide holes in the sleeves of his s.h.i.+rt and coat. "Hmmm...So I was correct."

"About what?" Rhehan too looked at the holes on his sleeve, even more curious now.

She quickly placed her finger on the bracelet as if measuring it in inches. "Yes! This is it! It is 6-inches." A wave of excitement and surprise travelled in her body, giving her goose b.u.mps all over.

"Come inside the car, I will tell you everything." Rose held, Rhehan's hand and they quickly walked towards the vallet. Soon a driver, parked their car in the porch and two sped off, outside the venue.

After five minutes, Rose looked at the empty road and held Rhehan's arm. "Ok! Stop the car here."

Rhehan stopped the car, while Rose switched on the over-head lights of the car. She carefully studied the metallic bracelet in awe. Rhehan waited patiently, while Rose tilted his arm again and again to study it.

"My guess was right. This is no ordinary bracelet. The original owner of these bracelets is supposed to be an egyption king, who ruled our continent for many years. His continent was supposed to be protected by mythical creatures known as "Imperial lions."

"Huh? What do you mean by 'bracelets'? There is more than one?" Rhehan was now carefully looking at the bracelet too.

"Yes! There were two, made together. The bracelets are supposed to be made of six elements of nature. Five are the obvious elements of earth, the sixth being the ashes of the king's dead wife, whom he loved dearly."

Rhehan was stunned at Rose's words. How is this possible? How can he come across such an artifact so casually?

"So, where is the second one?" Rhehan

asked, shrugging his shoulders.

"How do I know Rhehan? This is supposed to be a mythological belief." Rose touched the bracelet again. The metallic gold color of the bracelet, was unusually clean. Their were various engravings on top of it. While its edges were studded with various colored stones.

"You think this could be a replica or something?" Rhehan was still not able to digest what Rose was explaining him.

"I don't know about that! But look at the engravings! Here! See, two imperial lions are engraved on this part. This is the small picture of the king and his wife. These signs depict five elements of earth." Rose pointed her finger at different pictures, engraved neatly on the bracelet.

"Imperial lion? Are you talking about the two guardian lions? The ones used in our architecture? " Rhehan looked at Rose in surprise.

"Yes! The same! It is believed that before the king died, he handed over the two bracelets to the imperial lions. Only the true guardians of his dynasty could attain this bracelet, which imperial lion would himself give!!" Rose looked at Rhehan's face in amazement, as if having solved a jig-saw puzzle. Could he be?

"What? Why are you looking at me like that! Don't f.u.c.king scare me!"
