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

Chapter 107 106. Mother Knows

"So it's final, From now on we will be friends. Meet me tomorrow, I will introduce you to our group. You are going to like them."

Karna stretched his hands towards Ashwatthama to finalise their friendship. Now he doesn't have to worry about any unexpected things because once a word is given in this time, Most people rather lose their heads then to fail to keep their word.

Even the Niyati will can't do anything to force them to turn from their words as these peoples are very strong-willed. Some people literally lost their heads just to keep their word. That too an Asura who conquered both heaven and earth.

So Karna is not too worried, Of course, there is tiny doubt but that is given as you can't be too careful against destiny, Who knows what game it will play to let things happen as they are supposed to.

"Hum, We are now friends, Mohod- Mitra, I will love to meet them, Hope they will like me."

Ashwatthama was not sure what to do with the hand stretched by Karna, Here handshake is not known, People fold their hands together to show gratitude, But Ashwatthama is a smart boy, He quickly figure it out, He then reached towards his elbow and hold his entire arm and shook it.

Karna was nearly burst out laughing but he understand where Ashwatthama was coming from. This is a warrior's handshake, But unlike normal handshakes, this is done to show trust in each other and to see if the other person is carrying any secret hidden weapons under their cuffs.

But Karna didn't stop him, Anyway in either case this is done to show trust, That is what Karna wanted, So he also followed suit and shook hands with Ashwatthama the same way.

He was a little taken aback feeling how thin was an arm of his, Though not as thin as Eklavaya but for the future mighty warrior, It was way too weak, Obviously showing that he didn't get enough nutrients for the proper growth.

And yet the strength he felt in those thin arms did not match at all, He though that because of his physique didn't feel much but because Karna knew how normal body strength is, This felt him so uncanny, Once again proving that Ashwatthama is must to have in his camp.

"Yes, they will. It's now becoming darker. It's not safe to wander around at night. Let's go home. Meet me at the royal garden at 2 hours before noon."

Karna, after being satisfied with the outcome, he decided to call it for the day. He didn't know how angry his mother Radha should be now. After all, he didn't inform her of anything and was missing for nearly a whole day and night.

He now was very afraid of her. If she comes angry looking for him, He will not be that worried as he knows how to ease her but this is quite unexpected now, She didn't like this, Until now she should have searched the whole kingdom for him but she didn't do that.

This only tells him one thing, She should be so angry that she didn't want to see him. This thought terrified him hence he could not wait to go home and see what was happening there. He just hoped his hypothesis was wrong.

"Hum, My mother should also be worried about me, I will meet you at the 2 hours before noon in the royal garden tomorrow. Also if you can bring this little girl with you, Mitra."

Ashwatthama agreed with Karna, It's indeed quite late at night. He was sure that he was completely safe, with No evil power or being in the dark couldn't harm him but he was more worried about Karna.

It's indeed risky for people to travel at night, One should respect the rules, A day is for humans and night is given to the beings that dwell in the darkness, They don't with humans during the day, So humans also do the same to keep the harmony between two factions.

So saying that both of them bid their farewell, Kanra with that white nine-tail fox laying on his shoulders decided to go towards his house, While Ashwatthama also decided to go home and tell the good news.

Like that both of them separated, Ashwatthama without knowing how deeply his Niyathi is changed went home clueless, While Karna here contemplating whether to go into the mill and get the dress he made for his mother or not.

"Hey, what do you think? Should I go to retrieve that dress or wait for tomorrow?"

Karna looked at the left side of his shoulder, Where the head of the fox lay on while the other half along with his shoulders on the right side, Right now Nine tail was comfortably laying on his shoulders, closing its eyes and supposedly sleeping.

Karna wanted to name this little thing but he is very bad with names. If it was up to him, He was sure he would end up giving her Xiao Bai name, Which means little white.

So for the well-being of his and others, he put naming on hold, Hey decided that those 4 monsters should be angry at him, This can be used as a distraction against them.

Plus as gross they are very sensitive to the names, So they could find out the most suitable name for this little white fox, Which he still wanted to be called as Xiao Bai.

"You are right, Mata should be angry, It's better to take that sari back to her, It will calm her down a lot, And forgive me."

Karna clapped his hand and made up his mind. Before, the reason he didn't want to go back to the mill was not because it might be close but because he was afraid of going there in the dark alone.

Don't judge him, It's well known he is afraid of the dark but now that he has a fox with him, He was not afraid anymore and decides to follow his mind.

"..."

Fox opened one of her eyes and just gave Karna a blank stare. When did she say something? How come she was involved in this? I think you should take a look at

She wanted to protest but remember, He is the only one who can feed her. She kept quiet and followed his agreement. You can't risk losing good food plus she liked the warmth of his body.

And so the duo walked all the way to the other side of the village, Somehow sneaked into the closed mill and took all the pieces of cloth he made from the place he hid it into his system inventory.

After all that just as he was about to leave, Karna imagined that someone was looking at him but when he turned around no one was there. This threw him off as it was not possible for him to make such a mistake.

But knowing this is a night, He thought of a ghost or such looking at him, And just as he thought of that, He rubbed oil on his sole and ran out of there, He only stopped when he was standing in front of the entrance of his house.

He didn't even look back as legend says don't ever look back, As long as you don't look back, They can't do anything to you, Of course, don't stand there when they call out your name, Run away as fast as you can or you will eventually look back and that will begin over for you.

He read a lot of such stuff, So he didn't look back. He just took a deep breath and washed his hands and feet before he entered the house. The door was not locked. His mother should have kept it open just for him.

So he entered and locked the door behind him. He was being very sneaky as he didn't want to face the fury of his right now. Let it settle down a bit.

"So you finally decided to come back? Go sit down there, I will warm up food for you."

Karna tried being as sneaky as possible but just as he was about to turn around towards his separate room upstairs, A voice came from the kitchen indicating he was not so sneaky after all.

"How? I was so careful this time Mata? Are you peeking at the door all this time? If not, how could you know I am back?"

Karna shook his head and smiled helplessly, His mother somehow always knew when he would come back even when he did not make any sound, He was sure she was cheating, If not there is no way she was so accurate.

He entered the kitchen just to see his mother Radha was seated in front of the stone stove heating up the food.

Karna, like a good boy, sat down waiting to be served as seeing that he knew she did not eat and was waiting for him.

"I am not cheating, A mother will know when her child is around, Our heart tells us that, You can't understand what I am talking about, You have to be a mother to understand it."

Radha didn't turn to face him, Of course, angry at him for being away from home without telling her personally but she still made sure to cook for him knowing that he can't stay away too long from home.

She even answered him but as she said it went over his head, He tried to think about it but still could not wrap his head around this concept.

"Don't think much, When you come after you can also understand it then but you can't be away from home like this, It will be a bummer, right?"

Finally, Radha warmed the food and took it away from the heat, She could not help it anymore and asked, still not facing him.

"Mata, I am sorry, You know I was gone with Meghana. She taught me how to weave. I was so lost that I forgot about the time. Look here I made a red sari for you.

Please take this and forgive me, You know I hate it you being angry at me."

Now that it's mentioned, Karna quickly accepted his mistake, Of course not forgetting to throw Meghana under the bus, If you think it's unfair, That girl on many occasions runs after him non-stop wanting to force him to wear girl's clothes.

So in his eyes, it's fair, He was terrified all this while fearing she raised a flag. Thankfully, He didn't have to wear a dress yet.

Karna after saying his reason quickly took out the dress from his inventory and walked towards her and put it in front of her eyes.

"Stop messing around Karna, It's bad to lie-...You made this?!!!"

Radha was not having it, How much does she know her son? All he likes to do is to run around with those cute groups of girls all day long. When he was not doing that, He was messing around in the palace. He just couldn't sit at one place for a while at all.

So he will never be go out of his way to learn a weaving skill and that too so long in it, She was sure he bring this sari by asking from Meghana, Still, she was happy that he brought her something but the problem was that she can't show that to him or he will continue lying.

It's just when his eyes laid on the sari, It took her breath away and she asked in a flabbergasted voice.

(A/N : Like always thank you for reading and have a good day ?.)
