Chapter 88 88. Blessing Of Durvasa
?
"Please forgive me Sage but in my eyes Duryodhana is not an insulting name but rather most suitable for someone who is from the Boon of Lord Shiva."
Karna also folded his hands out of respect for the Sage but with same as before without fear in his tone answered Durvasa.
Karna is already given the reason why the name Duryodhana is not an insult but rather an honour to be called by this name. It's just a matter of perspective on how one wants to take it.
The only problem is now that to get the chance to convince Durvasa, Karna looked at the enraged face of Durvasa knowing that it would not be an easy task to do it.
At this point he really wanted dear Mama (Uncle) to take the wheel as he is the most suitable to handle this situation, There is no one better manipul-*Ahem* convincing man available in the Aryavart.
But sadly when Karna looked at him, Shakuni was shaking in fear, seeing a man like him who even convinced the whole Aryavart to fight each other, The one who is capable of winning the war even before entering the battlefield, not shaking like a dry leaf.
Karna didn't blame him though because the enraged Durvasa releasing very strong pressure, A invisible force was pressing everyone down as their physical instincts were yelling at them, warning them that to stay put, don't do anything foolish.
As for Karna? A sovereign constitution is made to go against the norm and create their own rule and legend. For Karna this pressure did not do anything other than ignite his fighting spirit.
His blood started to boil out of excitement as his star-child bloodline was ready to face dangerd one, After all, he is Suryavanshi (House Of Sun (Surya)).
"Explain."
Karna was ready to get cursed before he could answer, He was just hoping whatever curse Durvasa decided to give is not that extreme, another normal curse can be dealt with his Faceslap body.
But to his surprise Durvasa just looked at him. His anger also decreased a lot as he asked him though in a still angry voice but there was rare softness in that voice.
'What happened to him?'
Karna looked weirdly at Durvasa, He did not feel right of this sudden change in emotions of Durvasa and after looking closely he got his answer.
He found out that Durvasa was just looking at him with a hidden smile on his lips. There were no other emotions in his eyes other than slight anger and immense appreciation, This confirmed one thing.
He charmed, He charmed the person who in anger cursed most of the celestial beings, The one who is revered by not only humans but also Devas and Asuras.
Karna's charm finally started to work as intended to, And his first victim to his charm was none other than Rishi Durvasa.
"*Ahem* You see the sage, Duryodhana has two meanings, One is the one who is bad in arms, Which is the reason you think this name is insulting Lord Shiva but it also has another meaning didn't it?
Duryodhana names other meaning the unconquerable one, Now tell me how can this name be an insult to Lord Shiva? It can even be said to praise the power of Mahadeva (God Of Gods).
And you know Duryodhana was blessed by new power the moment after he finished speaking his reason and announcing his name to the world, So it has to be connected right?"
Karna didn't know how long can he able to keep Rishi Durvasa in this charmed state, As he can tell his anger is hair-thin, He can get angry at anything and anyone.
He didn't want to waste this fortunate chance to speak and conduct his point to him as soon as possible fearing that once the anger took over Durvasa he wouldn't be able to do anything.
It's true his Faceslap body can counter any curse up to 50%, He didn't want to take any chance to get a curse as one didn't know when even that slight wellness can be exploited by his opponents, Especially those blue guys he has yet to meet.
"Oh this is the reason, If that is the case, You can't name any better name this one, Here I bless you Duryodhana that you will go down in history with this name, The unconquerable one, Be the one who are praising you or be the one who hates you, Everyone will call you with the name of Duryodhana."
Hearing the reason of Karna, Rishi Durvasa smiled heartfeltly, Seeing that Surya could not believe in his eyes, He always saw Rishi Durvasa in his angry state as that is the default state
He never thought there would be a day. When someone like Durvasa smiles this beautifully, why doesn't this sage always have a smile on his face? Look how divine he looks with a smile.
Then to not so Surya's surprise as Durvasa give blessings as easily as he give curses, Durvasa raised his hand and blessed Duryodhana, Giving him a blessing to be immortalised with the name of Duryodhana in the golden letters in the pages of history.
Duryodhana was standing in front of Durvasa in fear both worried for himself and his Mitra but after he heard the blessing of Durvasa, All his worries vanished after hearing those words.
He directly kneeled at his feet putting his forehead on Rishi Durvasa's feet.
"Thank you for giving me this blessing, sage, Please forgive my rudeness of not greeting you earlier."
"Ayushman Bhava (Long live) Don't worry Putra, I do not know why I didn't think this way, Even if this was not the case, The crime of a child has to be forgiven as they did it in ignorance but I don't know why I became so angry that I wanted to curse you, Thankfully I didn't."
Durvasa lifted Duryodhana up and spoke from the heart. He really did not know why he had become so angry. Yeah, he is known for giving curses but he only gives when someone is wrong. He can never curse a child for his mistake.
But for a moment he was overcome with rage, His anger blinded him but the voice of that boy pulled him out of his excited state. When he saw that divine changing face his heart claimed down and all his anger vanished.
He had never seen anyone as beautiful as this boy, Even the Kamdev (God of Lust) is not this beautiful, This beauty of his stopped sin from happening to him.
"...."
Others were speechless here while Durvasa thanked his stars, It's one thing he wanted to do or not and it's another thing to announce it to others, Poor Duryodhana was standing there not knowing how to react knowing the fact that he was getting cursed.
"Okay, Sage, my mother should be waiting for me at home, I should be going now."
Karna still has a weird feeling in his heart, He just wanted to leave from there as he felt something was going to happen to him, He decided to slip away from here.
"Wait! You can't leave yet."
But Kanra was not able to do so, Durvasa stopped dead in his tracks with a smile on his face, Which is divine in the eyes of others and sends shivers in Karna's back.
(A/N : Again who do you think Karna's first teacher would be?
Like always thank you for reading and have a good day ?.)
