I Become Karna With a Million Times Crit System In Mahabharata.
Chapter 101 101. Definitely Test
Tonight's night was very strange. There was coldness spared around it like always but in it, there was also a touch of warmth like the sun in winter.
Karna was list walking around feeling the strangeness in the atmosphere. It was the first time he felt weirdness like this, So he was not sure why this was happening. He though feels good sensing the warmth around him but just because of that he didn't let his guard down.
'What is happening? Did I attract any unwanted attention?'
Karna couldn't help but think it was because of him. After all this is a world because of the lack of words taken care of by gods themselves, Each has their duty and they do it without any mistakes.
So these changes happening after his events in the dining hall, It could not be any coincidence, This is a targeted thing.
Karna was sure he was the one being responsible for this and because of that, He can't wait for to rush home now, As Duryodhana said going out at night is not good, especially in this time period, Where night is given to the dwellers in darkness.
All kinds of monstrosities, horrors and abyssal beings rule at night, Though they will not dare to come here alone because here in the Hastanipure exist warriors like Bhishma Pitamaha, The titled strongest warrior on earth.
But what if someone decided to deceit? There is a high chance that if some internal member betrays them, They could be those beings here. He was sure he can't die but there is doubt he can fight those monsters.
Those monsters become 10 times stronger at night, Which for someone like Karna who did not learn anything about warfare is an impossible feat to beat them, so the best option is still to run as they can't enter the house without permission.
*Sob*
When Karna was on full alert, He heard the sobbing muffled voice coming not far from below the tree in front of him, The sound of that cry halted his moments.

His heartbeat increased as his throat felt dry, His body felt cold all over as goosebumps appeared on his body, Karna was sure he encountered one of those beasts he was thinking about.
Maybe Kunti decided to take revenge on him or it might also be Vidur as the oath only says the people he will protect are from the throne. He did not come in that oath, So he can be killed.
But both options in the eyes of Karna are not feasible as Vidur, though blinded in love by Pandavas, is not a bad man, He will never try to hurt a kid unless he is a threat to the kingdom.
As for Kunti, She likes to play safe. If anything happens to him the prime suspect will be her. She is not stupid enough to pull this out, Even she has some principles.
*Gulp*
'Maybe someone needs help, That's all. After all, why would anyone cry at night in a secluded place like this hehe hehe…Damn it, This is definitely a ghost."
Karna gulped, Trying to convince himself but he was unsuccessful in it. Defeated, his first thought was to change direction and run as fast as he could, but that slight possibility that someone might be really in trouble stopped him.
That is the reason not that there is a superstition that says never turn your back in a situation like this, Definitely not.
"H-Hey *Gulp* Anyone there?"
Karna slowly crept towards that tree and asked out in a slowly timid voice, Don't judge him, He is afraid of the dark for a reason, The only thing that Karna felt good about is that because of his fear, he looked into most of the ghost protection thing and thankfully he also remembered whole Hanuman Chalisa.
Though he was not religious as he had to worry about feeding himself everyday for most of his short-lived life, He was fearful, And as we all know fear can make you do things you don't want, He remembered many things and tricks regarding this but right now only this one can be usable.
"...."
When Karna's voice fell the dining stopped completely, This just created Karna out, If you need help just ask it, Why create this much suspense? As for another possibility? It's not good for his mental health to consider that right now.
So he, with cautious steps, walked in front of the tree and saw that a small figure was sitting there holding something in his arms but because of the darkness, he was not able to see what that thing was.
"Are you okay?"
Karna asked as now he was 90% sure this person is human and not supernatural. Well, it will seem weird coming from him but that's the case, Some habits never change even when you become a demi-god.
"M..Medic said they can't save him, There is no hope for it. *Sob*"
A soft very pain-filled voice shaking with pain comes out of that figure, And as the figure spoke up it also started crying once again, that small body was of his was trembling.
When Karna heard it, He was taken aback but the pain and regret contained in that childish voice but his words had all Karna's attention.
'Did I beat Bheema that much? But how is that possible? That Mad Bull can take more of such beatings, right? How can he as a Son Of Vayu, The god of might, can be this weak? It's a shame.'
Here Karna misunderstood, It is reasonable. After all, there was only one person he knew who was home to the medic and that was the one he beat himself, The 2nd Pandava, The Bheema.
The one he himself sends flying with a punch, Karna was accept that punch can kill any normal person but Bheema is different, As he was blessed with immense might by his celestial father.
So Karna was sure that when he punched Bheema that, At best he will be lying in bed for a month or two at best, Not burping out like this, This did not make sense, He is one of the protagonists for Deva's sake.
'No, It can be possible, Niyati might be changing its course to current things. Now that I think about it, Bheema was supposed to drown somewhere in the plot and think of thought he died but on the contrary not only did he survive but also got a power boost.
Maybe that plot is tapping now, Yes it should be the case, But how? Karna thinks.'
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKarna didn't even check who this figure is as he was more worried about how to cut this opportunity for Bheema, After all, thanks to this he has the capital to fight against other stronger beings.
If Bheema didn't get this power boost, Half of the Pandava's strength will be halved, It will be easy to deal with them if they ever decide to do something to him, Which he has inch they will as now he is with Duryodhana, He is also a target.
"It's all my fault, I should never have to bring him back, He was safe in that forest."
Karna's thought chain was broken by the words of that figure, They made him curious as according to him, It was Vidur and Bhishama Pitamaha personally gone to bring those Panvada and their mother here.
"Who are you? And why are you crying here? Tell me I might be able to help."
Karna wants to know about this figure. Maybe this one will be the key to cutting the leeks of Bheem, so he decided on a friendly approach. He knows Bheem will not die, It is not possible for him to die till the world itself protects them.
If that was not the case, These Pandavas would have died long ago but they always somehow survive because of this exact reason. If he wants to end them he has to take care of their fate first before doing anything else.
"You can?! If you do that I will be indebted to you, Here treat this puppy quickly."
A figure became excited upon hearing Karna's words, He quickly looked up at Karna with his hope-filled eyes, His dusky complexion was mixed with the darkness of night, So it was not that visible.
But Karna frowned, When he looked at the boy, Because even though he can't properly see him, The gen on the forehead of the boy was illuminating in the starlight.
At first glance, it looks divine, Which is more of a reason why Karna thinks this boy is in the camp of Pandavas. After all, he is illiterate regarding things related to Mahabharata now thanks to the power of the world.
Karna shifted his gaze from the gem to the puppy in that boy's arms, Which only increased his frown.
'Test, He wants to test me before allowing me to treat Bheema, Smart, Why do all the capable people go blind and join Pandavas? Most of them will be just going to be used as scapegoats.'
Karna only thought this is a test, Which is an unreasonable conclusion as to why a boy will carry an injured puppy to test? They didn't even know when someone would pass by from here late at night as this is a shortcut Karna using, Which mostly no one uses.
So why is a witty boy in front of Vidura like this now? All because this is the most suitable condition for Karna for having the first meeting with another legendary character like him.
(A/N : I know you all want a training arc but if you have not forgotten there are loose ends I have to fix, so I decided both can be done simultaneously. Hope you like it.
Like always thank you for reading and have a good day ????.)
