I Become Karna With a Million Times Crit System In Mahabharata.

Here in the grandeur royal chamber of Hastinapur, an atmosphere of anticipation hung heavy.

Karna right now was put in the soft silky bed by Queen Gandhari not even having slightest idea the face of people around her changed drastically as the family of Surya sneaky took a peak of Rishi Durvasa, Who was fuming with anger.

They felt the scattering of the force field created around Hastinapur by Rishi Durvasa, Though the shield made by Surya also broke but it was overshadowed but the fact that someone has gone insane and broken the barrier of Rishi Durvasa.

This is like a slap on his face, Surya's family just praying they will not become the fish caught in the net by the troubled water, As there was about to come a Tsunami of rage soon.

Rishi Durvasa, standing in the corner not moving much and to others surprise he did not look that angry anymore, His presence filling the room with an aura of mystique but this was making others just more anxious.

Gandhari was about to leave the room to call someone to take a look at Karna and make sure to move him every so often but she stopped in when she felt something was not right.

"Rishi Durvasa, Did I do something wrong? If so forgive me but I can't just let Putra Karna sleep on the ground that like that, You understand that, right?"

She couldn't help but ask as she felt that she might have crossed the line by carrying Karna here without asking them or to tell him, So she apologised and try to give the reason of behind her doing so.

"No daughter you didn't do anything wrong but can you arrange the welcoming preparation right now? Someone is coming here."

Rishi Durvasa was pulled out of his thoughts by the words of Gandhari and then he answered her, It's hard to get angry at someone so devotional, It's just the person who was about to visit making him uneasy.

"I can, don't worry I do it right away-"

"No need for the formalities Putri, A sage like me does not care about those munden things."

Gandhari, hearing the request of Rishi Durvasa, was about to leave right away and personally prepare things to welcome the guest of Rishi Durvasa but before she could even complete the sentence a calm mysterious voice stopped from speaking further.

Everyone present in the hall turned their heads towards the door except Rishi Durvasa, Who quickly stood in front of Karna wanting to hide him behind his figure.

From the entrance, A figure strode in an unknown man enshrouded in twilight's embrace. His presence commanded attention, an embodiment of deepening dusk. Complexion echoed twilight's mystique, a living manifestation of night's allure.

His one open eye like abyss, drew gazes like moths to a cosmic flame-fathomless depths swirling with tales that defied time. The robes of his like woven from shadow adorned him, His each movements echoing a cosmic ballet. An aura of enchanting darkness enveloped, hinting at mastery over unseen forces.

His hair flowed in onyx torrents, a liquid waterfall framing a face etched with celestial truths. In his hand rested an onyx pendant, Which like he was cradling the very essence of the cosmic void, a crystalline fragment of the universe's enigma.

Amidst this enigmatic ensemble, In his hand was an unamusing wooden stick which he put most of his body weight and use it walk, Which was like a whisper of night.

His presence unfolded like a prelude, a dance in cosmic twilight. Only as the symphony neared its crescendo did the mystery man reveal itself.

"Asura Guru Shukracharya!!!"

It was the family of Surya who identified the respected and revered man who just entered the Royal chamber of Hastinapur.

"Pranam (Salutation) Asura Guru Shukracharya."

The trio of the Surya family greeted him with utmost respect as though it sound weird to give this much respect to the teacher of your enemy faction but this is how this world works.

Here it does not matter from which faction you belong to or what you do, Everyone will get their deserved respect. Here Asura Guru is doing the one of the most good things one can do - Bestowing the knowledge to the unknowledgeable.

"Long live, You may always be fortunate."

Shukracharya raised his hand and blessed all three of them with a wide smile on his face. His gaze shifted towards the bed where Karna was temporarily resting, guarded by Rishi Durvasa himself.

Though he was blind in one eye but his other eye held the intellect that no mortal or immortal can fathom, So when took a glimpse of Karna he knew he hit the jackpot.

This boy is the key for the victory of his Asura clan, and his fortune to have a stable student for once.

"Ah, Sukracharya, it seems our paths have crossed. How delightful."

Rishi Durvasa raised his eyebrow as he asked Sukracharya in a sarcastic tone, The look in his eyes could not escape from the gaze of Durvasa. He knows what this man is here for but he will not allow that to happen.

"Indeed, Durvasa. Though the kingdom wasn't quite bracing itself for your entrance, Such a pity."

Who is Sukracharya? He is Asura Guru. When it comes to using words, he is in his own league. It was not easy to win the verbal argument with him but it was just the beginning of the fight. Let's see what happens next.

"*Nodded* Much like the times your asura proteges prepare for their eventual downfall?"

Durvasa just chuckled and taunted back to him, Which had to sting a little because the countless times Asura tried each and every time they failed miserably.

"*Chuckling* Touché, sage. Yeah but let's not forget, I've mended more lives than your curses have broken."

Sukracharya country back with more more offence, Well their is the reputation of Durvasa.

"*Smirking* A claim that's as impressive as your ability to convince Asura to follow you."

The words of Sukracharya might have hit the mark as Rishi Durvasa pulled out the hurting nerve of Sukracharya, Which is that every student of his end up betraying him or did not listen to his advice causing their downfall.

"*Raising an eyebrow* Convincing Asura? Durvasap or guiding them to the righteous path? It's all a matter of perspective."

Sukracharya had to defend his point, After all this is a matter of his honour.

"*Stroking his beard* Ah, perspective indeed. Just as the difference between teaching humility and inflicting humility can be rather blurry."

Durvasa also defended the reason for his cursing people, As there is always a bigger reason behind it.

"You have a way with words, Durvasa. But let's cut to the heart of the matter. I've heard you're in search of a new student, May I recommend you some?"

Sukracharya laughed softly, Both gave each other steps to walk down, So now it's time to do business.

"Indeed, a student worthy of my teachings but I alrea- "

Rishi Durvasa nodded to him and wanted to say that he already found one but he didn't get a chance to say it.

"How fortunate for you that I have a brilliant wise asura who could benefit from your wisdom."

Sukracharya spoke softly leaning on his staff looking at Durvasa or might be at Karna behind him, Either could be the case.

"A wise asura, you say? The same way my hospitality is legendary?"

Rishi Durvasa just smirked hearing Sukracharya, A wise Asura? If there is a wise Asura in this time and age then his hospitality is indeed legendary.

"Haha, Perhaps you could teach him that even the great Rishi Durvasa can be cordial."

Sukracharya laughed and spoke softly, As if there was no enmity between them at all.

"*Psst~* *Whisper* Arya, what is happening?"

Devi Chhaya could not hold it anymore and asked her husband Surya what was happening here, Rishi Durvasa is known for his anger while Asura Guru is known for his well "Planning and strategies".

And both might be enemies but can never be close like they are some old friends. She can not understand why these two are acting weirdly. Someone like them can resolve matters from a simple fight now like verbal fight.

"I-I don't know."

That's all he can say, as he has never seen both of them act like they are doing right now.

"Provided your protege learns that even the wise Sukracharya can be... less cunning."

Rishi Durvasa did not become angry, rather he agreed with Shukracharya but the next moment also took a shot at him.

"Agreed, Durvasa. Shall we let Lord Shiva decide who gets the honour?"

Sukracharya raised his eyebrow and spoke up seeing Durvasa not falling for his plan, so he decided to use the ultimate weapon against him.

"An excellent idea, Sukracharya. May the more favoured one find their student first…Oh on that note, See I already have a student, So unfortunately I can't accept the blessing you are trying to give me.

But don't worry, This means that honour will be yours, Don't feel sad for me, Enjoy your blessing."

Durvasa showed his own intelligence as he bound Shukracharya in his own words, After all this "Ultimate weapon" also worked as much effective on him too.

Sukrachrya just stared at Rishi Durvasa for a while, taken aback that this man can also use wordplay like this one but he did not worry, he has a backup plan.

"Good one Rishi Durvasa Hahahaha ... .Pull your swords, Let's decide who that boy will be a student of battle to death."

Well he planned to fight to the death, He pulled out his weapon and so Durvasa did the same, not willing to fall behind.

The battle was imminent now, And so the destruction of Hastinapur from within.
