## Chapter Twenty-Five
A fierce battle erupted in the sky between the two armies, their weapons clashing like a web of thunder. The sounds of war drums and trumpets filled the air. || 56 ||
Arrows released from bows stretched taut to the ear pierced the outer bodies of the warriors, but their inner hearts remained untouched. || 57 ||
In the battle, the sharp blades of the spinning wheels severed the heads of the valiant warriors, but their glory, pure as the moon and conch shell, remained undimmed. || 58 ||
Da, struck by the edge of a sword, fell unconscious in the battle, but his prowess, honed in countless wars, remained undeterred. || 59 ||
The blow of a mighty mace made the arrogant warrior's eyes spin, but his mind, hungry for the victory that was his rightful prey, remained unfazed. || 60 ||
The army of elephants, horses, chariots, and foot soldiers, each fighting with their own unique skill and courage, engaged in battle like a well-oiled machine, fulfilling their individual desires. || 61 ||
Warriors who had previously celebrated their victories with ordinary weapons now fought relentlessly, their bodies free from the fatigue of battle. || 62 ||
The valiant leaders of the enemy army, Saukaanga, Aagari, Vegaari, and Neelakanth, were all defeated by the swift and powerful Chandavega. || 63 ||
Then, the fearsome Trishikha, riding a chariot drawn by swift horses and armed with a variety of weapons, approached Vasudeva, whose chariot was driven by Dadhimuka. || 64 ||
The two armies, their arrows filling the sky and reaching the limits of the horizon, initially engaged in a fierce battle with ordinary weapons. But Vasudeva, the archer, quickly unleashed the Agniya weapon, whose fiery flames instantly engulfed the enemy army. || 65-66 ||
The enemy countered by extinguishing the Agniya weapon with the Vaaruna weapon and then used the powerful Mohana weapon to confuse Vasudeva's army. || 67 ||
Vasudeva, however, dispelled the Mohana weapon with the Chittaprasadana weapon and then destroyed the Vaaruna weapon with the Vaayavya weapon, all while soaring through the sky. || 68 ||
With lightning speed, Vasudeva countered each of his opponent's weapons and then, with the Maheendra weapon, severed the head of the enemy warrior. || 69 ||
As the sun sets, its rays disappear from the sky, and the remaining warriors, abandoning their hopes, retreated from the battlefield. || 70 ||
