Chapter 333: Chapter 302: Rati’s Curse, The Moon Bell Maternal Incarnation! (Requesting Monthly Tickets!) - Part 2
"I, I..."
Rati quickly brought her hands together in prayer, kneeling down with a thud, her heart instantly filled with regret.
Seeing this, Vishnu’s eyes shimmered.
He smiled gently, his voice like a soothing breeze, speaking slowly.
"Worry not, there is nothing in this world that can separate Mahadeva and Parvati, just as primal man and primal matter, their union and separation drive the world forward, it is the sacred Lila."
Rati’s eyes sparkled as she looked at Vishnu, listening to the words of the Protector God.
"Praise Narayana!"
Rati slowly stood up.
She brought her hands together at her forehead in a gesture of respect to Mahadeva and his consort, then raised her right hand, looking towards Shiva.
"Merciful Mahadeva!"
"Your separation is only temporary!"
Golden light flowed from the palm of Rati’s right hand, modifying the curse of separation.
The next moment, she turned to Parvati.
"Lady Master!"
"Though you cannot conceive through union with your spouse, you can create children through other means!"
Rati murmured, adding conditions to Parvati’s curse as well.
Finally, Rati’s gaze drifted again.
Whoosh!
In an instant, her gaze fell upon the Devas.
"Your unease and worries about the Asura are also only temporary!"
Rati declared.
The Devas immediately showed expressions of joy.
That’s good! That’s good!
They could all accept a momentary trouble!
Sun God Surya blinked his eyes, smiling with a trickle of golden light radiating around like the morning sun; Fire God Agni also nodded, a warm aura continuously emerging.
Whoosh~
Wind God Vayu let out a long sigh, the gentle spring breeze spreading around, bringing a refreshing essence.
Water God Varuna’s eyes shone like gentle waters.
Whoosh!
Eventually, Rati’s gaze shifted, falling on Indra.
"..."
Indra blinked, meeting her gaze.
This curse was quite suitable for him. Adding conditions was superfluous, entirely unnecessary.
Rati, feeling ashamed, lowered her head, unable to look at Indra, with her hands brought together in prayer.
"I’m sorry!"
"I just lost my mind and unjustly blamed you!"
As Rati spoke, she raised her right hand.
Thud!
But in the next moment, a golden arm suddenly appeared and blocked Rati’s hand.
Rati turned unexpectedly, seeing Indra’s composed face.
"As a Heavenly Emperor, it is my duty to protect the Devas, failing to protect Kama was indeed my neglect, and your curse is justified!"
"Rati!"
"The God of Love Kama died for the Heavenly Realm! He died resisting the Asura!"
"Looking after you is my responsibility too!"
"Your asceticism is not easy, for you and Kama to reunite soon, you need not add any more conditions to the curse."
Indra spoke softly.
His voice was earnest and deeply sincere, resembling that of a chancellor who cared for another’s family, saying, ’Worry not about your wife, for I will take care of her.’
If Kama still had a breath, he would be deeply moved.
Of course, even more moved was Rati before him!
"Praise the Heavenly Emperor!"
"You had just arrived, and I misjudged you, it was all my fault!"
Rati brought her hands together, her eyes filled with tears.
Indeed!
The Heavenly Emperor had just arrived then, had not even had time to react or stop the Fire of Destruction from Mahadeva.
Indra clicked his tongue.
He didn’t like seeing others cry!
"Sorrow and darkness come from the soul, and no one can escape them!"
"Under the fire of anger, wanting to destroy everything, it is the nature of all beings, of course, I won’t blame you!"
Indra declared.
He raised his hand, like an anointing hermit, extending it forward, palm facing down.
It was the gesture of giving!
"I will bestow forgiveness upon you!"
"Go!"
"Go and devote yourself to penance for Kailash!"
Indra said.
Hearing this, Rati brought her hands together, respectfully bowing to Indra, then she slowly walked to the ashes of Kama.
"My husband’s ashes..."
Rati murmured in her heart.
Even though she knew Kama would resurrect, facing her husband’s ashes, she still wanted to preserve them.
Vishnu’s eyes flickered, his expression complex.
This curse...
It was becoming troublesome now!
At that moment, Antakam stayed silent, quietly hanging on the Trishula, not daring to make a sound.
His eyes blinked, his face pale.
Women are indeed too fearsome!
However, Indra, this man, was even more terrifying than a woman, and settled the situation with just a few words.
Terrifying!
Too terrifying!
Soon, Rati gathered the ashes and disappeared from there.
The gaze of Indra and the other Devas then fell upon Mahadeva Shiva. They had not forgotten the purpose of their visit to Kailash, which was to have Mahadeva birth the War God Kashigyakya.
"Mahadeva!"
"We Devas need you to birth a child who will defeat the Tulaka Asura!"
Indra said with his palms pressed together.
The Devas also pressed their palms together, their eyes intently focused on Mahadeva.
"Mahadeva!"
"This child will become the Commander of the Heavenly Realm!"
Vishnu said with a smile, his palms pressed together.
Brahma’s eyes moved slightly, and, seeing everyone else doing the same, he too pressed his palms together toward Shiva.
Whoosh!
At the pure summit of this snowy mountain, auspicious divine light shone in all directions.
Shiva smiled faintly.
For him, believers were akin to his children, and naturally, their requests should be fulfilled.
He turned his head to look at Parvati, whose expression was complex.
"Parvati!"
"A husband and wife are one, my child is also your child, and the child I birth should also call you mother!"
Shiva said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Parvati’s sorrow vanished, replaced by a joyful expression.
Indeed!
The son born by her husband was also her son!
Parvati’s eyes twinkled, and after coming to this realization, she was filled with anticipation.
"Husband!"
"Quickly!"
Parvati said, pressing her palms together.
Shiva was about to close his eyes with a smile.
"Wait!"
But at that moment, Vishnu spoke up once more.
Shiva looked toward Vishnu.
"Mahadeva, since you are already prepared to have a child, why still adhere to this hermit form?"
Vishnu said with a smile.
The next moment, a smile appeared on Shiva’s face.
A gentle golden light radiated from his entire being, and his form transformed into a magnificently dressed handsome man before the eyes of the gods.
He was draped in a golden robe, divinely beautiful!
It was exactly the brilliant principal form he had shown at his wedding.
"Praise Mahadeva!"
Vishnu said, smiling.
Seeing this scene, Indra understood.
Although it was Mahadeva alone having the child, the ceremonial preparations still had to include both people, and Parvati was to transform as well.
Parvati also smiled faintly.
Whoosh!
A gentle golden light emerged behind her, and soon a beautifully adorned bridal figure appeared.
This beautiful figure descended upon Parvati.
Moon Bell maternal form!
Parvati revealed a smile, reminiscent of when she first married.
Oh!!!
Witnessing this scene, Indra suddenly realized.
Although only Mahadeva needed to bear the child, it was still important to involve the Lady Master!
I understand!
Indra, smiling, pressed his palms together and spoke out.
"Praise Mahadeva! Praise the Lady Master!"
"Praise Mahadeva! Praise the Lady Master!"
"Praise Mahadeva! Praise the Lady Master!"
...
The Devas also pressed their palms together, praising both Mahadeva and Parvati.
Shiva sat cross-legged upon a large stone.
A fog-like light emerged from Shiva’s chest, radiating strong life force, within which a speck of gold grew like a seed.
The gods watched this scene with anticipation.
Boom!
Rumble!
Suddenly, sounds of muffled thunder erupted outside of Kailash, deafening, as if dry thunder had descended to the earth, and as if countless demons were howling.
Whoosh!
Parvati’s brows furrowed, and she waved her hand.
In an instant, the scene outside Kailash came into view.
Dark clouds covered the sky, utterly black!
Countless black demons took flight, blocking the sun. Their forms varied: some had bird feathers, some had insect wings, some had bat wings — a motley crew, all rushing towards Kailash.
Boom!
Rumble!
As these demons attacked, the entire Kailash trembled as if it were about to collapse.
"Demons?!"
Indra looked up and said.
