Chapter 134 132. Ranting In Front Of Mother
The arrow was released, streaking through the void with the velocity of a falling star. Guided by a hand guided by the constellations of stars themselves, it soared on a trajectory as if ordained by cosmic decree.
In an instance an arrow reached its target, The cluster of black hole making it super massive one but the arrow ignored the behemoth from which even light was not able to escape and directly entered in it.
*Boom*
The arrow had a head-on impact with a black hole which was a symphony of cosmic forces-the swirling vortex at its tip clashed with the voracious appetite of the black hole.
*Tremble* *Shake*
The very fabric of space-time quivered, and for a fleeting moment, the universe itself held its breath. The black hole's relentless gravity was met with an indomitable force, a cosmic reckoning of unfathomable proportions.
Then a cataclysmic display of brilliance ensued, The black hole's event horizon quivered as if straining against invisible bonds. The celestial onslaught of the power of Nova Oblivion shredded the black hole's insatiable hunger, creating a rift in the cosmic canvas. Galaxies danced to the unheard melody of the clash, stars shone with newfound radiance, and the black hole yielded under the assault.
Karna holding the celestial bow remained poised, its luminescent glow mirroring the eternal light within the heart of the Star-Child or others thoughts so seeing calm face of his.
But there was a storm set off in Karna's heart. He knows the powers he got will be strong but he had no idea it would be to this degree. Now he was glad that he didn't test this skill outside.
Karna had too many things to say but he didn't have a time as even the singularity of the supermassive black hole could not handle the power contained in the arrow.
So it finally broke loose, Creating a phenomenon known as Big Bang, Which travelled faster than the speed of light itself and swallowed everything in this "mental" realm of Karna.
The white fox long since hidden under the new clothes stars made for Karna's soul body, So in instance both of them vanished or can be said the whole universe of this vanished itself.
….
——— 5 minutes before Karna's action ———
"Mata, I am telling you that this child is not normal, He is definitely some Asura reborn, I request you to take a look at him to determine it."
Bhishma right now was standing on the river shoar saying something to a woman clad in a white sari like a wronged child to his mother.
Wait!? Now like that was exactly what was happening here, After meeting with Karna, Bhishma could not take it anymore. The words of his to be prepared to handle the whole army of Mathura did not feel like a joke at all.
He even had a feeling that he definitely has to fight with the whole army of Mathura, After all these said by Karna who even dare to blackmail him, So there is a high possibility Karna will also do same to the King Kansa.
So seeing that this might ruin the relationship between two kingdoms further more he comes to get aid from his mother, He take an oath not to interfere in the royal workings but not her.
She as a former queen of the kingdom has every right to interfere in it, That is why he come to her.
Though it's not like he can't handle the Mary of Mathura, But problem is that what happens after he beats them, Both kingdoms will surely go on war with each other.
There is no doubt Hastinapur will win but at the cost of the safety of the citizens, he can't take that gamble and wants his mother to interfere.
"Wait, slow down Putra, Tell me who this kid is and why you hate him so much? Is he really that bad?"
Ganga standing in front of Bhishma levitating above the river asked him in a concerned voice but to be fair most of the concern in her for someone else.
After she saw that Karna triggered chaos vision she was scared for him, The chaos can and will corrupt any sane mind of any being, She was not sure why Chaos was triggered.
But she didn't have time to think much. She hurried home to her lord who also noticed the changes in the world but strangely he didn't look like he know it was Karna who triggered this vision.
She shook these useless thoughts from her mind, She requested him to save Karna, And he accepted even though he knows that if someone triggered chaos in the mortal realm there is only once choice.
It's best to kill the one who triggered it as that way chaos will not be able to enter the mortal world after losing the reason.
The only catch was that her lord asked her to stay on the Kailash mountain for a while and not go right away to meet the boy. She does not understand the reason but she obeyed the command.
Now after the day has passed, she comes here hurriedly to meet him. It's just when she was about to meet her youngest. She heard her oldest call and had to come here to see why he was calling her.
And as it turned out after listening to him, Bhishma was just scared of some child who wanted to harm the Hastinapur, And was going paranoid.
After hearing that for a moment she took a long look at her son checking if someone came here in disguise of her son or not.
If not, how can one explain that the son of hers who learned the art of warfare from gods themselves is scared of the child wanting to harm the kingdom, It's one thing to have concerns but Bhishma clearly scared of it.
"He is supposed to be King of Anga, The small city near our border of Hastinapur, Also I don't hate him, I just don't like him being close to Kavurava's and bluntly show his hate towards Pandavas.
What if those kids also starts to hate Pandavas? There will be enmity between brothers, So he is a bad influence for the kids, That is the reason why I am so against him."
Bhishma didn't hide it why he didn't like Karna but as Karna said before he knowingly or unknowingly made Padavas good guys here getting bullied by others.
This is his habit and also one of the reasons why Karna even knowing Bhishma technically is his brother not willing to get too close to him, As in his eyes whatever he does is for a righteous task.
And if someone does not agree with him then they are the problem here, They are wrong and need to be put in their place. This ideology of his also became his downfall later on in life.
"What about Kauravas? Do they like him? And when did Anga become a separate kingdom? Is it gifted to that child as a prince or something?"
Ganga can not leave her son here alone troubled can she? So she decided to love the problem here first before going to take a look at Karna, Anyway at max it will take a minute or two, What going to happen in that short time
Plus she also felt the strangeness of Bhishma, He was not being neutral here, She can smell biased of his towards Pandavas even though he tried hard to look impartial.
"Prince and he? No no, you got it wrong, He is nothing but a son of Suta born in the family of Adiratha and Radha, King gave him the kingdom as "punishment" when he pulled out the cloth from Daughter Gandhari's face when he was a child.
That is the only reason why he was even alive after beating 2nd Pandava, Bhima and tricking Vidur like that.
Also, Kauravas seems like they like him but that too might be a stretch as they met him just yesterday, I am sure this is a trick of that snake we have in the Palace.
He is just waiting for an opportunity to strike us, I don't want another problem for our family Mata."
Bhishma ranted to his mother not seeing the change of her expression at all, He was just talking emptying his heart out as he can only do this in front of her and no one else.
But it is that if he was paying attention to his mother, He might have come out that he might have shut his mouth after he spoke of Karna being the son of Adiratha.
Because right now Ganga was fuming with anger, Bhishma was just a few seconds away from getting beaten by his mother for the first time that too in his old age.
But then the same thing happened here. There was that starlight passing through them and then with the powerful boom of the waves, they felt the Dominion of Karna's physiques.
Both just looked at each other with looks of horror and excitement as they dashed towards the centre of this power.
