Chapter 169 167. Two Kids
"What to do now? Why don't they just start it already?"
Ganesha waited and just waited, He ate all the sweets he found somewhere and now because there were no sweets and fights he was getting super bored.
He thought there would be some epic battle but here this was just getting dragged and dragged, Even when Rudra came out the all-out fight did not break out.
This does not make sense at all, Who is Rudra? He is made from the pure anger of his own father, It is the fury of god of destruction, The destroyer of the whole creation.
How can the anger of that being be so calm? The one whose name literally means the most fierce one, Front of him no evil stand a chance at all, he destroy and eradicate everything.
Even though this was just tiny part of that power but that made him the most dangerous, the tiny part of it did not have enough capability to control over his anger.
He will not look who is front of him, If he perceive entity front of him is evil or threatening, he will like a beast pounce on them until he does not see the blood flowing like a river out of that entity.
And here what this Rudra doing? Being cautious, This is not something Rudra supposed to do, They go head first into the fight without care for themselves.
That is why at first Ganesha thought there was some power restricting Rudra but after thoroughly checking the surroundings he didn't find anything at all.
So in his eyes the act of Rudra is weird but it was all done by Rudra on himself because even if the remover of the obstacles did not find anything wrong, There can be nothing else there to affect Rudra.
"Well at least those two are upto something, It would be interesting to see two possessors of Rudra's going against each other, It never happened, It would historic thing."
Ganesha seeing there still little time before these two would go against each other like a battle between wild mighty elephants, He looked a little away towards the royal treasury where two kids were standing not understanding what was happening.
They were no one other than Ashwatthama and Eklavaya, They were still there standing, Eklavaya because of the words of Karna and Ashwatthama stayed to give company to him.
But right now, He was crouching down holding his head as there was immense pain, The gem on his forehead glowing in bright red light sensing the threat for its master.
And so it is trying to awaken the part of Rudra in Ashwatthama for his well-being, because even if Ashwatthama didn't know what was happening the gem knows.
It sensed the threat long before, If not for Ganesha sensing their presence there protecting them with his power, Ashwatthama would have lost his control as the gem would have forcefully awakened Rudra part in him.
But seeing that there will be a battle and that battle involves a Rudra, the gem still wants to turn him but Ashwatthama surprisingly refuses to yield in front of it.
This surprises Ganesha, A child can hold back the power by his sheer will that even the mightiest warrior who goes through the rivers of blood can't do it.
"What is happening to you, Mitra Ashwatthama? Tell me what I can do to hel- arghh!!"
Eklavya in a hurry moved forward to check Ashwatthama but as he took one step forward the pressure released from Ashwatthama pushed him back.
He was hurt by it but injuries were very few without severe damage, So he stand up once again but other than going forward stand on his place without bothering him.
Because he can tell Ashwatthama fighting a mental battle, He trying to help will do nothing but cause him more trouble, He just stands back and prays to his Kuldvi (The goddess of the clan) to help his new friend.
"Huh? How?"
Ganesha was excited to see the fight, After all there will be no harm in it, In Rudra state person become invulnerable to damage, So no matter how much damage is done to Rudra state, the possessor will always be unharmed.
And that he is here, That is a guarantee that there will be no collateral damage, Plus he just wanted to have a fun.
Since he took over his divine duties, He did not get any time to have fun, before he always used to pull pranks on Gana, Deva and likes, it used to be so much fun and everyone get to enjoy it.
Well Lord Kubera might disagree but he brought it on his own, He was warned beforehand he still moved forward with that idea, So he did not do that badly.
It just that when Ganesha thought the kid will lose it's control and finally give in to the urge to turn something unexpected happen, Ganesha already become quite impressed by the child who was able to hold on this long and that is why what happen next was shocking to him.
He saw that the faint golden aura released from the body of Ashwatthama was he let go of his hurting head, after which he just stand up and just passed the smile to Eklavya indicating that he was fine.
Ganesha just could not believe it, It can't happen, It is nearly impossible to control the rage that came before going into the state of Rudra, No mortal being able to stop it.
And yet the child is able to do it, it was uncanny, For the first time he saw something that he doesn't know the answer of, This other then making him jealous made him more excited.
"That golden light, It is definitely the power related to the kid, Where did that power come from? "
Ganesha now with excitement looked at Ashwatthama as the hunger for the knowledge ignored in his heart, He wanted to know, find out the reason, Learn the things that were unknown to him.
For a moment he even ignored the fight that was only happen once in Yuga, Rather he spread his power and searched in the whole kingdom for the source for that power but he didn't find it.
But that didn't stop him, he spread it even further still he could not find it, So he just covered the entire world and yet it was all futile he could not sense that power at all.
"That can't be, If that power appeared here means there has to be a source for that power, Maybe it is not on the mortal realm."
Ganesha seeing that the source of power is not in the mortal realm, He decided to go all out, He spread his network of power in the all three Loka in search for the origin of that power.
And yet even when the whole universe was scanned he didn't even find the hint of where that power came from. It was like that power never existed, Of not for the fact he himself saw and sensed that power, Even he would have thought there is no such thing.
"Interesting…This is getting a lot more details that Rishi Ved Vyas talked about."
Ganesha stopped searching for it, He knew when to stop, He then looked at the two children and then at the two sages who were now ready to fight.
Because the third one is getting impatient now, Maybe he too just came here to see if there will be harm to lives, and two of the sages also sensed that and so without fear of being attacked in mid-battle, they were ready to start.
…..
"Hey Rishi Durvasa, If you can hear me, This is the last chance, We can still back away now and consider this as a tie, I really don't want to use "that" form against you."
Shukracharya spoke up, He believe in that for the last moment you should try to look for a peaceful option for the fight, Of course it was not applied to the fight against Devas for obvious reasons.
So he was still ready to call a truce. After all, even though he didn't want to fight the part of Rudra, Even knowing he has power that could go head-on against the power Durvasa has, He still did not want to do it.
There was still immense respect and fear towards the Rudra, If not for the desperate situation he really didn't want to fight with Rudra.
*Roar*
What answered the question of Sukracharya was the blood-chilling roar, Which shook the souls of the listeners and locked them in place because of terror.
Then he jumped high up towards Sukracharya, The nightmare he summoned also made the move and started their attacks.
"*Sigh* You are never good at talking, Didn't you, Rishi Durvasa?"
Sukracharya though felt fear by that roar, and even if his limbs become cold because of it, He still didn't show it, showing fear will be the worst thing one can do in the battle.
He gave a smirking smile to Rudra who was in mid-air as the ground, air and even sky suddenly started to glow in various colours in integrated patterns.
This officially started the battle between two legends.
