Chapter 173 171. Laugh Or Cry
Karna walked out of the shadow behind the group holding three people, Rishi Durvasa and Asura Guru Shukracharya were on his shoulder while he was holding a muscular man who threw a giant axe at him for no reason.
All three of them were unconscious but even then Karna held them in his tiny stature as it was not a big deal at all.
He just did not understand why these three were fighting with each other. Before he thought there was a strong demon or something let loose and he was worried about wanting to put that demon in his inventory.
Yeah inventory, That is his biggest trump card, Why? Because there is no limit on it, As long as the thing in his eyesight he can store it in the inventory for an indefinite time.
And in inventory time stops or does not exist at all, so there is no possibility of someone escaping from it because that someone does not have time to do so, for them they go in and out instant without even a second of delay.
But when he saw it was sage who was fighting he didn't put them in his inventory, He put that Nightmare and Soul Of Damned though as they might be useful later on.
No, rather when the powers hit him, He out of instinct used his The World Devour skill devouring those two powers, And with the help of the system put it in the system inventory in crystal form as it would be useful when forming his own celestial core for cultivation, As for the axe? That too in the inventory.
There is also a notification of it when he put it in there but he was too worked up because of power running through his veins, so he could not catch that system notification, Well he can look at stuff in his system status bar later on anyway.
"Ka-Karna!?? You are okay?"
A trembling voice filled with hesitation and fear rang out as both twins Sandhya and Chhaya made their way towards Karna with cautious steps fearing what they were seeing was nothing but an illusion created by themselves to protect them from harm.
It happens, Some divine beings create an illusion so powerful that it becomes their reality, allowing another dark side in their hearts to take over their body wreaking havoc everywhere.
"Yeah, I am kinda okay just super hungry, Also mind looking at these three? I touched them before and they just passed out without any reas- Woah!!"
"You are really fine, You really are!!"
Karna not knowing these two are his actual mothers decides to play safe and not reveal much, He just said what happened leaving out the fact that when he touched them he had his devour skill activated.
He just lay three of them down on a soft place and asked for their help, These people being sages should know how to heal as it's one of the knowledge passed down by them.
But before he could finish his sentence both of those figure jumped in front of him and hugged him in their arms tightly not allowing even air to move past air in between them.
"What are you doing? Let go- huh?"
Karna was taken aback, He really did not like to be touched by strangers like this way, He though has a good feelings towards these two women but that doesn't mean they could attack him like this without any warning.
He still has 40 seconds of his invincibility status, So he was ready to throw them off his body but abruptly halted his actions.
He felt a warm wet liquid touch his bare neck. The moment that sensation was felt by him, He felt like someone punched him in his guts. He didn't know why these women were crying but seeing them cry made him feel worse for some reason.
He didn't like it one bit, Each drop of tears of them fell on his body felt like a huge mountain put on his shoulders weight of which he couldn't lift even with his current invincible state.
"I don't know what made you sad Mata's (Mothers), But you give me the name of the person now who made you cry, I will make sure that there will be no more tears in your eyes from this moment onwards, This is the promise of this son of Radha."
Karna himself become emotional, he don't understand why he has this reaction, He is not an emotional person, He always keeps calm and think logically and of course he would not be the person who just gives promises blindly.
But here he can't control it. A rage building up inside him. Each tear of theirs was like fuel igniting the fire more and more trying to blaze, All he wanted to do now was to make the person pay for making these two cry.
He out of instinct locked his eyes on the Surya standing not far away who looking at with confusion, Karna was 90% sure that definitely their husband made these two cry.
lightsnοvεl 'Why do they like this? I didn't do anything. Why would the first guess be always me? I can't even bear to see frowns on their face, much less hurt them.'
Surya being locked by eyes of them felt like deja vu. He seen those eyes before in one of his sons. He just felt it is too unfair. Why does his son always assume he was the one who.hurt their mother?
First was Shani with whom he yet to fix his relationship with and now here is Karna walking on the same path as his elder brother, It is not just fair.
Here he was sickly worried about Karna too, Yeah he didn't show it because of his worldly duty but he does love his family, no one can he didn't.
He just can't break the rules for them as he is not the one who will suffer if he breaks the rules, It would be billions of billions of lives living under his blessing, He just can't harm them for anyone.
"N-No Putra (Son), No one made her cry, These are happy tears seeing you without any harm."
Both Sandhya and Chhaya let go of Karna gently after realizing it would odd for Karna who didn't know the relationship between the two of them, And that is why they also felt proud of it.
Even not knowing the relationship between them their son was ready to avenge their tears. For them, it was a happy moment. At least it was a happy moment until they got reminded who is his "real" mother now.
They know they can't feel jealous about it but they are, They are jealous about how proudly their son took other women's names as his mother without even knowing they too exist.
It just hurts in a place no one other than a real mother would understand. Their son is right in front of them and yet they can't call him his. There is nothing more torturous for a mother than this.
"Ohh, Yeah then forgive me for this Mata's (mothers), I didn't wanted to make you worry, It just happen."
Karna rubbed his back of head and answered in embarrassment, It really just happened, he had no plans to just get caught in the crossfire between two powerful sages.
Thankfully he was lucky and had the skills to survive it. Even then he had to teleport to escape from the aftermath to prevent harm from befalling these three sages.
"Are you sure Mata no one made you cry? Don't be afraid, This son of Radha has tricks to make the culprit pay for the crime no matter who that person is."
Karna wanted to go and took that damn glutton fox back from the impact area, She chose to jump out when he was about to teleport, definitely intending to devour residual powers.
He just doesn't get it. Where is all that food and power going? She is so tiny it is impossible to fit everything in her body.
This was going in his mind as he was ready to phase but he finally can't help and asked what was in his mind.
When he promised them before he felt both of their bodies become stiff as if he said something that touched their inverse scale, So he could not help but ask again fearing they did not think he would be able to avenge them.
"No, Really this are just happy tears."
Both sisters were in sync, with wry smiles, and answered him, They don't know whether they should cry or laugh at this situation.
Laugh and be happy that their son got such a good mother whom he can't stop mentioning it fearing others might forget who his mother is like a child showing off his favorite toy.
Or cry that he got such a great mother that he didn't need them, It was quite a dilemma.
But in either case they were happy that their son was not harmed, totally ignoring the reason why their son was not harmed.
"Okay then, I believe you for now."n(/o(-v.-e-.l)-b(.1/-n
Karna still feels that there is something bothering them but if they don't want to say it now, He decided to ask them later, first he has do something before time of his invincibility runs out.
