"Excuse me, sir!" Chitraketu replied with folded hands, "This is not a fort, but a battlefield. Here, the people watch the duel between the warrior of Varunprastha and the warrior of Bharatvarsha."

Chitraketu said with folded hands. "This is not a fort; it is a battlefield. Here, the people are watching the duel between the warrior of Varunprastha and the warrior of Bharatvarsha."
After speaking, he closed his eyes. Immediately, footsteps could be heard approaching from beneath the circular wall where the townspeople had gathered. The king was angered by this sight.
"Sir, please come with me," Chitraketu urged as he sheathed his sword. King Vishvara replied, "Of course."
In an instant, Chitraketu transported King Vishvara and his wife, Queen Vrinda, from the Tridevi temple to a seat atop a high tower. Upon taking their seats, King Vishvara noticed two thrones beneath a canopy. Chitraketu invited King Vishvara and Queen Vrinda to ascend the thrones.
Once seated, King Vishvara gazed ahead. He spotted another minaret in front of him, where a young man sat upon a throne, surrounded by armed soldiers.
King Vishvara asked, "Is the young man on the minaret your king?" Chitraketu sighed and replied, "No, that is our Maharaj's brother, Rajvardhan."
When King Vishvara beheld Rajvardhan—his strong arms, well-defined muscles, numerous war wounds like ornaments, the mark of Shrivatsa on his chest, gold-colored armor, and a peacock on his belt instead of a crown—he briefly felt that Rajvardhan resembled Prabhu Shri Hari Vishnu. Moments later, a man in armor approached and stood next to Rajvardhan. Sensing the potential for trouble, King Vishvara remained silent.
Rajvardhan raised his hand, directing the warrior beside him to move forward. The warrior then leaped from the tower and landed in the center of the ground.d by this sight.
"Sir, please come with me." Chitraketu sheathed his sword. King Vishvara replied, "Of course."
In a moment, Chitraketu transported King Vishvara and his wife Vrinda from the Tridevi temple to a seat built on a high tower. On the seat, King Vishvara saw two thrones under a canopy. Chitraketu requested King Vishvara and Queen Vrinda to ascend the throne.
After being seated on the throne, King Vishvara looked ahead. There was another minaret in the front. A young man was sitting on the throne atop it, and armed soldiers were standing around him.
King Vishvara asked, "Is the young man on the minaret your king?" Chitraketu sighed, "No, that is our Maharaj's brother, Rajvardhan."
On seeing his body—strong arms, tight muscles, many war wounds like ornaments, the mark of Shrivatsa on his chest, gold-colored brass armor, and a belt with a peacock instead of a crown on his head—King Vishvara felt for a moment that Rajvardhana resembled Prabhu Shri Hari Vishnu. After a few moments, a man in armor came and stood next to Rajvardhan. Seeing this, King Vishvara sensed the possibility of something untoward happening, but he remained silent.
Rajvardhan directed the warrior standing near him to go ahead by raising his hand. The warrior then jumped from the tower and landed in the center of the ground.
