There was pin-drop silence in the assembly, No one knows what to say about this condition of Karna. Wise in the group of people understand this is the best thing Karna can ask for but they did not think it is even possible.
Rishi Durvasa not giving curses when being angry is the same as expecting the sun to rise from the west, Expecting water will give up its nature of being cool, Expecting fire to not burn things.
This is just illogical. There might come a day when all three things said up can happen but Durvasa not giving a curse being angry will never going to happen, The one who thinks it will happen will be the way about to be cursed.
In this case that person is Karna.
"*Ahem* Insolence!! Putra I thought you are good but you are very disappointed. Asking a great Rishi like Durvasa this? You should have thought this is your honour to be allowed to be the first student of Rishi Durvasa.
No, No, No, I don't like this a bit, Please go away from my sight or I don't know what I will do."
Silence is broken by the "angry" voice of Surya disguised as a Sage, His eyes were red as he was fuming with anger but in his heart he was yelling foul play, He don't understand why his this son can't seat for a single moment before making trouble for him wherever they met.
The first time he brought the Vision of Supreme Charm and Sovereign Constitution, To stop he nearly tapped into his divine power, After that he was not able to meet his son for quite a while.
And when he met, Guess what? This son of his provoked the vision of Chaos, It was through fortune they were able to stop chaos from entering in this mortal realm or this is the end of everything.
Surya really thought this will be enough, Now he gets to spend quality time with his son but no, Who knows this guy ate the liver of a bear and the gallbladder of a leopard and decided to provoke Durvasa.
DURVASA!! A whole Devloka (Domain Of Deva) trembles in fear hearing that name and hearing his son without a trace of fear standing in front of him and asking questions like this one.
When he heard what Karna asked Durvasa, Surya felt the ground slide away below from ground, He For a moment he was convinced that this is a real Durvasa, Though he still has his doubts.
No one in the history of Sanatana (Enteral) dared to ask Rishi Durvasa to not curse people and here his son breaks that norm too. Should he be proud or curse his fate why it was always him?
Anyway, He as a father quickly came to the rescue of Karna, He will definitely going to get cursed today but at this moment all he wanted is that to see Karna go away from here.
Now everyone including Surya is waiting to be cursed by an angry Durvasa but one thing is good that his son will be safe.
"O'Great Sage Adithya, Please care to tell me what will you do if Karna does not go away from your sight?"
But to everyone's surprise Durvasa we're definitely angry but not at Karna but at Surya for yelling at his soon-to-be student. Durvasa did not like even a bit that someone threatened his student.
The only reason there was no curse was that he knew that Sage Adithya did it to protect his Karna, Durvasa is not stupid but his anger always blinds him and now because he was not that angry, His intelligence was able to show its power.
"...Sorry, Please forgive me Rishi Durvasa."I think you should take a look at
Surya could not understand what was happening in the world. At this moment he looked outside just to make sure that he came out in the right direction today. Who knows he might come out of the west today.
If Durvasa can react this way then it is also possible that he rise from a different direction, He just had to now see if water and fire also decided to change their nature.
But no matter how shocked Surya was his survival instincts were not filled him, He out of his instincts quickly apologised and backed away hoping like before Durvasa once again forgive him.
If it was before Surya called himself crazy for believing that Durvasa can forgive and that too if he thinks he can forgive 2 times in a row, That is nothing but a fantasy that always stays as fantasy but not away more.
"*Scoff* Next time, be mindful of your words. Also Karna I give you a promise I will never curse you no matter how angry I become, I would rather give you appropriate punishment for your crime.
But I warn you, Don't miss the use of this promise of mine, Remember no matter if it is a boon or a curse, If used wrongly it will bring only destruction on oneself, So tread wisely."
Durvasa just scoffed at Surya and ignored him to the relief of Surya, He then looked at Karna, Who just looking at him with respect and hope, This softened his heart.
Before Durvasa wanted to make some changes in the condition as it's too much of freedom but seeing his face, He couldn't help it and promised Karna a thing that others only hope to get.
Still, he did not forget to remind Karna, There are consequences for actions. There were many strong people with strong boons but once they started to misuse those blessings, They wrote their own end with it.
And the one even gets a curse to follow the path he/she thinks is right, They even turn a curse into a blessing bigger than a boon.
This can be considered the first lesson of his to his student, Always beware of his own limit.
"Thank you Rishi for agreeing with my unreasonable question but I still have to do an offence and tell you my 2nd condition.
You have to teach me anything and everything that I can learn and master. No matter what that thing is, as long as I can learn and master it, You have to teach me."
Karna spoke but unlike before his posture was bending down towards the Durvasa in respect while his hand was still folded, His voice was the same as before but this time his words were the one who left people speechless.
Which is shocking as they never thought there can be anything more smoking than asking Durvasa to not curse but here it was, More bizarre than before.
Sorry I can't able to change it, Only 100 words allowed to be changed..
(A/N : Why do they think it's more bizarre than before?
Like always thank you for reading and have a good day ?.)
