Shakuni and Karn were trying to calm Duryodhan who was burning in jealousy.

"Duryodhan, I promise you that this Indraprasth will be yours with all its grandeur and luxuries !" Shakuni promised.

"You promise ?" Duryodhan asked.

"Yes I do." Shakuni said.

"Mitra, I am sure Gandhar-raj will fulfill his promise. Soon this Indraprasth will be yours, why don't you go and take a good look at it ?" Karn suggested.

"As you say Mitra." Duryodhan nodded and stomped out.

Duryodhan went around the place, he was astonished seeing such architectural marvels. He soon reached the illusory palace.

He saw that the maids and servants were walking on water instead of the floor beside them. Duryodhan got confused seeing it, he takes one feet and places it on the watery surface but shockingly it was hard ground.

Duryodhan takes another steps and was astonished seeing himself standing on flowing water, as if it was a floor.

'Mayasur has impeccable skills.' Duryodhan thought.

He walks further and comes to the hall with four gates, two on either side. He looks at gate and sees a beautiful garden. He decides to check it out but as he tries to go through the gate it see he bumps into something.

Duryodhan tries to touch what is stopping but couldn't figure out what. It seemed like a magical barrier stopping him.

He looks around hoping that no one saw him, but luckily no one was there. He sighs in relief and sees a maid entering from the gate on the other side.

'So one can come through the gate but cannot go through the other side ? Interesting.' Duryodhan thought.

He went further in the illusory palace clearly impressed with it. He reaches another hall and sees Yudhishthir, Bheem, Arjun and Sehdev talking with Satyakant, Shalin, Nabhraj and Biraj.

Not wanting to talk with them, he goes ahead but catches Satyakant's eyes.

"Kakashree careful that's water." Satyakant warned. The rest also look at Duryodhan.

"Wow. A little boy is pulling my leg now." Duryodhan scoffed and stomps ahead.

"Duryodhan don't !" Yudhishthir warns but was too late.

As Duryodhan steps on the surface, which he thought was hard ground, he falls down into water.

Everyone bursts into laughter beside Satyakant and Yudhishthir. Duryodhan turns around and angrily looks at them.

Bheem along with Nabhraj and Biraj laughed the most. Arjun, Sehdev and Shalin were too having a good laugh.

"Stop !" Yudhishthir said. All stop laughing.

"Behave." Satyakant said to his brothers who were still suppressing their laughs.

Duryodhan looks at them with immense anger, his entire body felt like burning with vengeance. He is not going to forget this humiliation nor will he let them forget it.
