I Become Karna With a Million Times Crit System In Mahabharata.

Chapter 166 164. Nightmare

"There is no going back now, Rishi Durvasa fully awakens the Rudra part in him."

Sukracharya standing right in front of the beast was the one one to saw the changes happening and become uneasy.

It's no joke to stand in front of Rudra, Even if it's just time part of one but it's still Rudra literally means the most fierce one, The one who is said to be like a beast on a hunt.

He knows that there is no way he can stop Rudra as his own without external help and that help has to be equal or even higher than the part of Rudra, Durvasa using.

And thankfully Sukracharya has it, he has the power not only to defend against Rudra but also with it he can even force him back but there is just one small problem.

Just like Durvasa he can't control that power, or to say no one extract one can control that power, Once he awaken that power he will able to put a fight against Rudra but what after that?

He will be the force that then be need to stop and it's not has to mention that the whole earth will be destroyed in the fight of his power and Rudra in front of him, There is no if or might, It's a fact that the whole earth will be destroyed as the aftermath of the battle.

'This is a reason I don't want to fight. But here we are, I should just shut the mouth of that trickster devotee, If I did that there is no such problem. Now at least I have to make sure the aftermath of this battle is not going to affect that child, Or it would be all useless.'

Sukracharya thought why not just he shut the mouth of that Narada, As the lord as his devotee was always there to cause problems for me and my clan.

But now he even implicated the innocent lives of humans. At least when Asura do something like this they don't target innocent humans. They mind their freedom and safety unless they were worshipping Lord Vishnu.

Those people are dead in the eyes of Asura and so they make them also dead in the eyes of others too, But at least they have distinctions, They only harm the ones who were helping the one who was against them.

Not like this, Now who knows how many people will die, He knows most of them are good people worshipping their deity, but before their deity takes action they would be dead.

So at the end he has to be the one who bring them back, But will anyone pay attention to that? No as always someone like him will not be appreciated for his acts, That is what Suras (Deva) do.

They did it with Burhaspathi's time, He was more than deserving for the place of Guru of Deva and yet he did not get that position, Why? Because Burhaspati's father is the great revered sage who is on the side of Devas.

So even when his own father is no weaker than the father of his rival be it in the power of respect, He is sidelined just because his father likes to be neutral and not just only cater feeling of the Devas.

*Roar*

Sukracharya's chain of thoughts was broken by the blood-chilling heart-wrenching roar of the beast, Who was now fully awakened and was staring at him with his crimson rage-filled eyes.

The chain of human skulls on his neck this time started to glow in the very uncomfortable blackish light making anyone was in the presence of light feel uneasy giving them a premonition that something very bad was about to happen.

*Tremble*

Heaven and earth trembled as if in the fear of what was about to transpire here. The sky was covered in dark gloomy clouds hiding the blazing sun which were trying to counteract the chill.

But after even the sun was hidden behind the clouds, There was no longer any protection and heat was reaching to the place, making the cold aura around intensify.

It no longer has any restrictions in it and so it started sparse far and wide giving being all around the scare. There were animals were running all around trying to get away from the chills.

Beast tides were happening, Even the fish in the water went depth as they ran for their lives and the birds who were able to fly decided to run high to escape the icicles that were forming.

But alas, How can they escape? The fleeting beast could not run away that far before they froze in place, Fish in water even if they were in depth could not escape as the whole rivers and lakes also froze, instantly freezing them inside.

The flying birds started to fall off the sky as their wings froze in the mid-air but thankful before they hit the ground their bodies also became fully frozen rock solid.

Finally, The Bhoomidevi, The goddess of earth had taken the action and restricted the spread of cold but even her could not able to reverse the situation as the source of the cold was still active.

But this at least give a breathing room for the beings who were terrified of the cold.

*Pierce* *Crawl*

But their relief did not last much longer as the moment the cold spread stopped the area affected by the cold started to shake, And before others could realise what was happening the very ominous presence filled in the air.

And to the horror of every living being, the ground was pierced and the bony hand stuck out of the ground and the whole bony body crawled out of the hole.

Yes, bony because it was nothing but bones, It was a skeleton, The dead that came out of the ground.

But it was not the stop there, There was another similar moment and so 10s then 100s and afterwards 1000s of such skeleton army that crawled out of the ground.

Every one of those skeleton were wielding the weapons, some were holding the rusted swords, some were holding broken mace and there was even some who had the bows in their hands.

All in all, they were like a skeleton army standing there and their target? Sukracharya.

"Army of fallen? Why is such a terrible undead awakened by the Lord Rudra?"

Goddess Chhaya who were with the group restricting now not only the killing aura but also a cold aura but even then she as queen of darkness recognised the undead crawling out of the ground.

And because she recognized it, she was terrified of why such undead were borough on the mortal land, These beings are the one even in the Naraka (Netherworld) are terrified being.

Don't look at their appearance that looks like just a few weak parts that can be broken with just slight pressure or think it was just bones what threat it can pose them.

This undead also has another name called Nightmare, Yes Nightmare, Just like a nightmare being in the netherworld wants to forget that they even know about them because of a simple reason.

These are not the bones of some ordinary people, Each bone standing in front of them was a mighty warrior of the army, and each one of them was also not just a normal cannon folder.

No for them to become the nightmare they want to have at least Rathi warrior rank before they die and on top of that they also need to be killed unfairly with lots of resentment in their heart for their death and their unfulfilled pledge and vows.

That is why they were so fearsome. They hold a lot of resentment to the world, and because of that if someone is killed by them, There is a high chance they will also join the them and become one of them all because the resentment corrupts the soul and it also spread one soul to another.

And because of the same corruption, they also gain boast in their power after death all around, While they still keep their power before they die, Even though they can't use the astra and knowledge before their death but they inherent new undead ones.

It's not stop there, On top of that because they were once part of the army they are not stupid without brains, well they don't have brains but still they are not mindless.

They are calculative and known for their group work, They like army also make traps and bait others in and before they realise what was happen it was too late, they have already been dead.

Also did it not mention they are pseudo-immortal? No matter what you throw at them you can only harm them for a while, afterwards they just regenerate their body and just come after you.

No matter how much damage done to them, Even their bones crushed into power and thrown in separate directions they come back and not only that they come back multiplied.

And once that happen there is no stopping to them, That is the reason why they are called the Nightmare by the being living in the Netherworld, The beings who themselves are the nightmare of mortals being terrified of these ones.

"That's is because Asura Guru Shukracharya pulled those things out here."

Lord Suraya did not directly answer, He just looked helplessly at his wife and they pointed towards the opposite direction of the Nightmare army.
