Chapter 84 84. Poor Surya
After the small event of Snadhya and Chhaya everything becomes normal, After that nothing special happens. After quite some time Karna was finally able to extinguish his hunger.
"Thank you for the food."
He put down the plate in his hand and folded his hand and thanked for the food, Eklvaya who was sitting beside him waiting for his Guru to finish eating. When he saw that Karna was done eating, He too folded his hand and thanked for the food.
To be honest, He wanted to cry as he did not remember when was the last time he was able to eat stomach full. Even when some king donated the food it was not enough to feed every hungry seeker.
It is very rare to find a really good-hearted king who is actually feeding others wanting to feed them, not in greed of wanting to gain Karma by feeding the poor. Only they provide them with enough food but again it rarely happens.
And now thanks to his choosing this divine kid- No the avatar of some god, His life turns around. Just in the morning, who was untouchable, now seated with the royal family and ate with them as one of them.
He also gets to know that everyone who was with him also transferred in the guest house his guru said and also fed them. He could not thank his guru enough for this, Though his aunt is biased towards her sons but she did take care of him.
For him who never saw his mother and father, She is both, He could never be able to pay her back in this life for her that act, So he was happy that she and his cousins are well-fed.
"Allow me GuruDev, I carry your plates and wash them."
After Eklavay paid respect for the food, he stood up and picked up his and wanted to pick Karn's plate but he was able to as there were not a few plates in front of him, it was small hills of plates which he knew he had never been able to carry all at once.
Still, he decided to carry as much as he can and then find where he can wash them. As a student, it was his duty to do it.
"You don't have to do it, Eklavya-"
*Pufft*
Karna wanted to tell his dedicated student that he didn't need to wash the dishes. There were people to that task but he was interrupted by Sage spraying water and choking on it.
"*Cough* *Cough* *Cough* *Cough* Wh-Who is your Guru Putra?"
Karna turned to look at Sage who was in shock looking at him while still coughing non-stop. When his action slowed down while trying to recover himself, He asked a question in his shocked voice.
His eyes opened in shock, He did not pay much attention to the Nishad boy standing with them here as Gandharin is known to be a big-hearted lady, It would not be strange if she took pity on this boy and asked him to work here.
So he does not think anything of this boy until he hears the name of this boy, He who is part of Narayana (Lord Vishnu) has the privilege to know a glimpse of the future, That's why he knows what is going to happen in the future or at least he thinks so.
That's why he knows Karna will die on the battlefield in the war but he doesn't know how he will die. Hence why he thought it would be good for Karna to die in this mortal world with honour and go down in history as a legend.
And when he dies, He gets to meet his son and can even bring him into his Surya Loka. If Surya knows how Karna would die he might have decided to take a different approach but that is not what is important here.
Now he saw the legendary figure in the future he saw here, Eklvaya the lost prince was supposed to consider someone like Drona as his Guru and had to pay the price for it is currently sitting with his son and calling him a guru.
'How is this even possible? Eklavay was supposed to consider Drona as his teacher and then lose his thumb for it. This is how events are supposed to unfold but how come Eklavya is here calling Karna a Guru?
If Eklavya didn't lose his thumb, My brother Indra would not be able to sit still, He would definitely try to play dirty. After all, Eklavaya has the power to go toe to toe with the gods.
I have to go bottom of this to figure out why destiny is changing this drastically. It would not be good for the order of the world if Fate started to change.'
Surya disguised as Sage was looking at Eklavya with horror. Right now this Nishan Prince should have been wandering in the forest, Where his son caught this person and not only did he catch him but also somehow convince someone older than him Eklavya to consider him as his guru.
'Where did he learn to trick like this? Don't tell me he picked up this trickery from his brother, Shani. Is that even possible? But only Shani is the one who knows how to trap someone in the words in the family, Others are just known to talk with their hands as it works every time.'
Surya was really confused, and even suspected that as to frustrate him, His son Shani might have taught Karna, After all only he in the family use his brain though others like his eldest Yama is also intelligent but others just felt it was easy to talk with hands than to use words as it's not so efficient.
If not for the fact that no one else other than his wife, Lord and Kunti can know Karna is his son, He is right now on the way towards his estranged son Shani asking for answers.
"Sister what happened to Arya?"
Chhaya saw the shocked expression of her husband and couldn't help but to ask her sister about it.
"Maybe this Eklavya is a problem? Let's see what Arya will do."
Sandhya too never saw her husband like this and because she is not part of Supreme she can't take a glimpse into the future, So all she could do was wait.
"He is my Guru, A respected sage."
Eklavya was not sure why sage asked this question but he was honest and proudly answered Surya.
"Yes, I just accepted him as my student, I think he will be a great student."
Karna too was proud that he got Eklavya like a student and answered happily not knowing how their casual word troubled his poor father to no avail.
