Chapter 93: Indra's decision
Indra, though momentarily softened by Karna's plea, could not easily set aside his wounded pride.
Aryan, sensing the precariousness of the situation, stepped forward, his voice resonating with a tone of diplomacy.
"Indradev, we understand the gravity of summoning Brahmastra. But our intent is not to defy or offend you. We simply seek your help to save our companion's life. "
Although Aryan said so very humbly, it didn't mean that he was afraid of Indra. With his current strength, he was confident to stay undefeated even if the other party is the king of gods Indra himself.
It's just that, right now, saving Dushala is more important. It doesn't matter if he has to bow his head under the eaves for her her sake. As long as Indra agrees to help, this much is no problem since technically they were indeed in the wrong for threatening him with Brahmastra.
But of course, if the situation turns for the worse, Aryan was also prepared for it.
Indra, after a prolonged silence, spoke with measured authority.
"Mortal, your audacity may have invoked a higher power, but it also risks the wrath of the divine order. However, for the sake of the delicate balance, I shall heed your plea."
A collective exhale swept through the celestial assembly as all deities heaved a sigh of relief and Aryan also nodded appreciatively
Karna also dismissed the Brahmastra and heaved a sigh of relief.
But suddenly Indra's tone changed as he continued solemnly,
"Yet, be warned. The path you tread is fraught with peril. The Brahmastra wields immense power, and its consequences are not to be taken lightly. And to make you understand this, although I agree to help you, but there is a condition. "
All the deities immediately nodded with an expression of as expected. Obviously, they knew Indra too well.
He was no kind God and certainly not one to easily forgive those who offend his majesty.
This, hearing his high sounding words, they immediately understood that they were nothing but his excuse to punish these mortals with a self righteous attitude.
"What are your conditions? "
Although Aryan smelt something odd, but he still asked calmly.
"It's very simple, as long as you can take three of my moves without using Brahmastra, I will help you heal your friend. Otherwise... "
Indra didn't complete his sentence but the meaning was obvious as a cold smile appeared on his face.
The atmosphere crackled with tension as Indra laid out his conditions, his demeanor veiled in a cloak of superiority.
Aryan's face immediately turned dark.
But after taking a deep breath, he looked up at Indra, his voice carrying a chilly undertone.
"Looks like my previous humbleness might have given you the false impression that I am a soft perssimon. So be it, I agree to your conditions. "
"Hahaha, very good. "
Indra's cold smile widened, a gleam of satisfaction dancing in his eyes.
But at this timr, Surya Dev could no longer stand by idly and hurriedly took action.
Almost instantly, he disappeared from Devloak and a bright projection appeared in the sky beside Indra, above Karna and Aryan, dispelling a large part of the cloudy sky.
Naturally, it attracted Indra's attention and made him a little unhappy.
"Surya Dev, what are you doing down on Earth? And if you're here to stop me then don't even try. This matter has nothing to do with you and you have no right to interfere with my own decisions. "
Hearing Indra's cold words, Surya Dev didn't panic, instead he first looked down at Karna lovingly and once again looked back at Indra with a serious expression.
"Actually Indra Dev, this matter does have something to do with me. "
"What do you mean? "
Indra asked confused.
Surya Dev's radiant presence shone brightly amidst the celestial drama, his words carrying a weight that demanded attention.
He immediately used his divine sense to communicate with Indra mentally.
"I mean, Indra, that the mortal standing before you, Karna, is not just an ordinary being. He is my son, and as his father, I cannot stand by when his life is at stake."
"What? Surya Dev, you have kept this hidden for so long?"
Indra questioned mentally, his expression a mix of surprise and annoyance.
"I had my reasons, and his destiny unfolded on its own accord," Surya Dev responded calmly. "But now, Karna faces a challenge you've set forth. As a father, I cannot remain a silent spectator."
Indra, though visibly irritated, couldn't dismiss the familial ties presented before him. After all, Surya Dev was not a good stubble. If he were to have a conflict with him at this time, the consequences won't be favourable for him.
After a moment of contemplation, Indra spoke with a hint of begrudging acceptance.
"Very well, Surya Dev. I won't do anything to your son. But as for the other one, he can only pray that his strength can match his courage."
Hearing this, Surya Dev contemplated for a few seconds before he finally accepted and disappeared.
He also knew that this was already the best result he could strive for. As for the guy named Aryan, Surya Dev could only sigh for him.
Meanwhile, because the conversation between Indra and Surya Dev took place mentally, no one understood the reason why Surya Dev suddenly intervened out of nowhere, nor why he left after a few seconds.
Below, Aryan roughly guessed but he didn't care. He didn't really need Surya Dev to protect him.
"Alright mortal, get ready. "
With no one to interfere, Indra raised his Vajra and with his induction, seven thick bolts of lighting descended upon Aryan crazily.
* boom * * crackle * * boom *
The crackling bolt of lightning descended from the heavens, guided by Indra's command, aimed directly at Aryan, who stood unwavering, his resolve steeling against the impending onslaught.
With a swift movement, Aryan evaded the first lightning bolt, his agility matching the speed of divine wrath. The ground trembled beneath his feet as the electric energy scorched the earth where he once stood, blasting out a huge pit.
Indra, observing from his celestial vantage point, narrowed his eyes, his gaze sharpened by the thrill of the challenge as the remaining bolts of lightning struck with precision towards Aryan.
This time, instead of dodging, Aryan activated his Sunshine ability, formed a miniature sun between his hands and flung it towards the oncoming bolt of lightning.
* boom *
A large cloud of dust and smoke were raised, making it impossible to see the result.
