NOVEL NEXT Chapter 86 86. The One Everyone Afraid Of
"Soldier, Is the sky torn apart or earth has shattered? If this is not the case then why are you not following the etiquette of the royal assembly?"
Gandhrai was quite angry at the behaviour of the soldier, She is soft-hearted but that doesn't mean that one can walk all over her anymore, She now has the temper and aura of a queen..No, A Empress should have.
"Forgive me for my offence the great queen, I did not intend to stain the or disrespect the rules of assembly, But I can't help it the situation is like this, Yes the sky is not torn apart or the earth has not shattered but it would not far from happening.
That is because the Rishi Durvasa is here asking to meet with you right now, He doesn't look happy. Please give him permission to enter here as we are not able to hold him any longer."
Soldier directly kneeled on the ground as he begged Gandhari, And what was even more surprising is that this mighty warrior, A royal guard burst out crying in front of the queen like a child.
But no one mind about him anymore because everyone heard one word, Rishi (Sage) Durvasa.
No one dared to move a inch. It felt like someone put a freeze spell on them. Even Surya disguised as a Sage was telling with fear thinking he had been caught by Durvas for seeking into the mortal world.
Even Sandhya and Chhaya both taken their aura back and dare not to use is as before fearing it might be misunderstood by Sage Durvasa as a challenge, They can't take any chance with that sage, A wise person be it Deva or men wanted to stay as far away from him.
After all, The Durvasa name literally means the one who is difficult to live with, And he is true to his name, Because he is born by the anger of Lord Shiva, He has irascible nature, Even a slightest thing can tick him off.
And unlike other sages when they are angry, You at least get a chance to seek forgiveness, In his case that luxury is not available, The moment you are him you will get cursed.
He also didn't discriminate with anyone, No matter who you are, Deva, Asura, Manusha (Human) or Trimurti themselves, He will curse you as he did before, Even the Lord Shiva from whom he was supposedly born and is part of him cursed at a time.
And of course how can one forget where he cursed Indra, The king of gods and not only him but all gods which lead to them losing everything and had to do Samudra manthan (Churning of the ocean) just to get back what they lost.
That's why he is received with great reverence by humans and Deva alike. After all no one wants to face his anger but that is only one side of the story.
Indeed people know him for giving extreme curses but he is also famous for giving generous boons for doing partially nothing in particular to deserve it.
So yeah he is just like Lord Shiva. The problem is that he is on the spectrum of both extremes of his, Easy to get angry and also easy to please, Just has to be careful as anything can tick him off.
"What are you doing stopping great sage like him at the door? Please bring him here with respect, No wait!? I came personally to bring him here."
Gandhari quickly got up hearing that Sage Durvasa is here, As she being the devoted to lord Shiva, She also has the same respect for Sage Durvasa even though there is not much good reputation of his among the other royals.
She dashed towards the door not willing to let wait him any longer but before she took her foot outside, She saw a well build man standing front of her, His black bread was long, As his hair was tied in the note above his head, On his hand were nothing but the Kamandalu (Water pot), While on other hand holding the chain of Rudraksha beads, Same types of beads were can be found all over his body, On his biceps, wrist, neck and such place, Which were look quite good with the contract of the colour of his Bhagava (Saffron) clothes.
"Forgive me for my impotence, Sage, I was not able to greet you at the door."
Gandhari seeing it was the sage she was running to go see directly kneeled under his foot and asked for forgiveness from her heart. She though afraid of him too but not because of fear of being cursed but because of fear of being disrespectful towards him.
Well, People like her see the world differently which might be the reason why she still holds enough power to curse gods even as a normal married woman, Her devotion can't be described in words.
"You don't have to Putri (Daughter), I felt the blessing your son had received and came to bless him."
Surprisingly Durvasa spoke softly to Gandhari and even helped her stand up calling her a daughter. He didn't look like a man who is always angry, He looked like a very understanding person completely different from the words of others.
Karna looked at the new person and he also thought the same, not understanding why people become so scared after hearing the name Durvasa. For him, he looks like a reasonable man.
"Thank you for coming to bless my son, Sage. It is an honour for my son to be blessed by someone as great as you. Please enter and let me give you a chance to take care of you."
Gandhari was happy that Sage Durvasa himself come here, Though she knows that another Sage here had granted her son Duryodhana protection so that others can't sense his changes but maybe Sage Durvasa had found out before and came here, That is the most reasonable excuse she can think of.
"O'Sage Durvasa accept my greetings."
Disguised as Sage, Surya in fear hesitantly walked towards the Sage Durvasa fully knowing his disguise can not work on someone like him, Surya just wanting to get recognized by him and then torn apart by Durvasa as Deva's was not allowed to interfere in the mortal words.
"Why are you here? And Who are you?"
But then Durvasa Rishi spoke in his thunder-like voice and asked Surya but Karna hearing the question felt like someone just slapped him in the face. What kinda question position is that?
Surya on the other hand was shocked looking at Durvasa with his brown wide eyes.
(A/N : Now tell me who will be Karna's first teacher?
Like always thank you for reading and have a good day ??.)
