Aadhya Strength Of Pandavas novel Chapter 13

NO ONE'S POV

Everyone looked at where the arrow came from and saw a guy standing there, drona asked him "who are you and with whose permission you dare to shoot this arrow!?", to which that person replied "when a sound is made in mountains there is echo created but the mountain doesn't wait for anyone's permission" saying this he shot another arrow and handed duryodhan his gada and jumped down, drona went towards him saying, "you are challenging arjun, don't you know this contest is only between kuruvansh", to which that guy replied "it was acharya but you praising arjun as the best archer in the world due to just few tricks that he showed, you have challenged the whole world now and I'm a person living in this world too so I will fight behalf every archer in the world, so now you have two options first to say that prince arjun is only number one among the kuru princes or tell him to challenge me now."

AADHYA'S POV

Oh this won't be good because if bharata arjun wins or loses he will be the only who will be laughed at I went towards them to hear bharata arjun saying "do you use your weapon or just use your mouth", I went and put my hand on bharata arjun's shoulder and said "let me fight him", before he could say anything I gave him a look saying I know what i'm doing and he nodded.

I went ahead of bharata arjun and told the warrior, "if you just want to prove yourself then you can fight me first warrior as i'm bharata arjun's partner and I have practiced with him enough that I can stop his most attacks towards me, so if your any arrow hits me I might let you fight him and please don't mistake this as a disrespect, and before anyone says anything (looking at mamashree) I in no mean want to disrespect a warrior and never will", to which he said, "I don't fight girls", I was about to reply but was cut by gurudev saying "I know you, you are the one who came to learn from me", to which that warrior replied "the person you are talking about is long dead when you rejected him that day" and mamashree shakuni interrupted saying "you were lucky young man or else you wouldn't have your right thumb, to become the best some do hard work and some uses guile", to which bharata arjun replied "just like how warriors fight and killers give poison that's what you mean na mamashree", he came ahead with a pissed look on his face and said "yeah that's what I mean pandav kumar so it's better you accept the challenge or else it will be a disrespect to your guru", to which I replied "he had accepted the challenge when this warrior came here it self but I would like to fight this warrior instead of bharata arjun like you are speaking for this warrior instead" I said with a smirk and he stood their quite.

Kul guru interrupted saying "wait first we need to know which cast this challenger belongs to because as per the traditions and dharma a kshatriya can only challenge a person with the same class or a class above, so tell me who are you young man, you didn't introduce yourself and before fighting tell us where you are from and which gotra's kshatriya you belong to", knowing that the warrior now I remember his name as karn probably is a sut I knew kul guru won't let this happen.

Gurudev went to kulguru saying "you shouldn't insult a brave warrior like this by asking his cast", karn got angry and said "insult?, I don't feel insulted if I tell my cast or who my parents are i'm proud of who i'm, i'm the putra of mahamahim bhishma's charioteer adhirat shusayan", kul guru became angry and said "sut! you are a sut putra and you dared to learn weaponry and don't you know a sut can't challenge a prince!?", to which karn replies "yeah i'm a sut and i'm proud of it and proud of the father who has served nothing but loyalty to mahamahim bhishma and I always feel proud when i'm called with my mata's name as radheya and what does my samarth has anything to do with my cast, no one asks the lotus where is was grown, no one asks the river they drink water of where it came from, then why am I being asked about my cast!".

Karn was interrupted when his pitashree came and said "enough karn let's go", karn denied and said "i'm sure a better fighter then arjun pitashree" but his pitashree said "it's my order, and I apologize to everyone here", and bharata bheem added "it's better you listen to your pitashree sut putra", and the crowd started shouting "go away sut putra go away", they turned and started walking making me think "do cast really matter, if yes then why?", and my thoughts were interrupted by duryodhan telling them to wait. I turned my face towards them to see what's happening and duryodhan made karn the king of ang with the help of tatshree and told him to fight.
