Lord Shadow

Chapter 1920: Watching the Stories

And it’s not like fate and destiny is his main laws and rules that he practices.

It is only because he is connected to the World Tree

He felt this feeling the last time.

In that other timeline.

Though the memory of that other timeline become more blurry as the past and present changed from the original storyline, Odin still managed to imprint some powerful emotions and send it back to this timeline

That other timeline no longer existed.

It is like a dream.

It never existed in the first place because of Jean interference

He always wondered how did Jean managed to change every single Time in every single Universe, affecting the entire Omniverse

If Jean was that strong, couldn’t he delay the Destroyer?

What if….what if that being in the river helped him?

If that being in the river helped him, then it would make sense that Jean could do what he did.

It was this and many other incongruities that made him determined to imprint some of the deleted timeline memories into his current memories

Zeus on the other hand chose differently. He chose to destroy it. Erasing it from his mind

Though, Odin had a nagging feeling, that he might not have destroyed the memories but maybe he sealed it

Maybe he throws that memory into Tartarus and wait for the right moment to regain his memories.

To avoid being marked by fate and destiny?

Odin no longer had so many questions. But what he does have in his mind right now is new plans

Plans that he need to revisit and changes certain things that he did not think to change before

He look again at Azief

And the plan around this child also must be changed

This is the reason why he wanted to meet this Child. He was never truly honest in front of Wargod. And Wargod also probably knows that.

But right now, they share the same desire so Wargod could only allow Odin meet with this Child

Not to mention that this Child is not the Etherna sole property.

There is still Azul in a different Neo Universe

From the moment he stepped outside of Asgard, went to the world tree, free Alsurt, all of this is just to meet this Child and confirm some things

He did not say much about the price he had to pay to go to this place, to go to the World Tree and rested under its shade to hide from cause and effect, from fate and destiny but that price is not cheap

The only worries he have is that if the answer did not come even after paying all of these prices.

But now that he had met this child, see the cause and effect, even if it was a glimpse, he could not help but smile from the bottom of his heart

He got what he came for

Answers

Odin then look at Azief. Azief also looks at him

“I will tell you what is necessary. When you reach Sovereign level, all of the other question you might have would be answered naturally”

Azief thought for a moment and he remember how the Creator told him a story.

So, he ask a question

“Will it be a long story?” Odin look at Azief and then smiling he nodded

“it is a long one. Though, time really does not matter that much below the shade of the World Tree”

Azief sighed and nodded

Odin smiles and then in the coldness of Jotunheim, he began the story with a war.

..

The story of a War.

The First True War in creation. Because before that War, this first being have never met beings that could threaten them

And the story, like Odin had told him, is a long one

But Azief did not feel the time passing. It was like they are in their own space and time

He told the story of the King of a rebellion and Odin told him about a weapon, the All Source.

A weapon that no one knows how to use other than the Destroyer and the Creator. The story is not quite complete or detailed.

Odin also told him about another war that take place on Earth.

The story itself did not follow any chronology. Odin seems to be telling him stories when he wanted to tell.

Like the stream of consciousness that came and goes and Odin is just following this stream of consciousness

The Etherna War

He had some understanding of this war.

Because it is one part of the history of the Etherna.

Even though he already spent a lot of years in that fortress of his, absorbing the knowledge that the Etherna gave to him, he did not yet watch this war.

The directive of the program told him he did not yet able to access that part of the history of Etherna

Azief had a feeling that the directive of the program of the blue crystals would only let him access that part of the history of Etherna at the end

This is just his premonition.

But since he reach Essence Creation realm, it is very rare for his premonition to end up wrong

He never knew it in detail. Odin also seems to understand that Azief also seems to know about this war and he seems to know the restriction of the blue crystal.

It is just a feeling that Azief had.

Odin this time did not hide anything

Whatever Azief ask, he would answer.

Odin told him about the war that had taken place, about who participated in that war and Azief was shocked to know that some of those who enters the war are even destroyed in that war

The war that decided the position of the Seven Intergalactic Alliance.

And then Odin told him somethings about the deleted timeline.

It is here where Odin is very cautious in picking his words and is very careful not to say things too much

But Azief listen.

All the while, he listen.

The seasons changes and the snow is getting harsher, there is clouds of thunderstorms, and there is shaking all over the area of this Jotunheim

The wind of winter of Jotunheim could freeze even raging fire.

but Azief did not notice any of this. He did not notice the cold, he did not notice the passing time, did not notice the seasons changing and he did not notice how many things are changing all around him

It was like he is in a trance. Yet, these time did not touch Azief and Odin lifespan.

Azief right now is immersed in watching these stories that seems to come alive in front of his eyes

The story is long.

because it is not a story told with words.

It is because ethe story is told like the way the Creator told him stories.

He is there.

In that…and those…..scenes. He did not occupied a body and watches the happenings. It was like he is watching a movie, yet, he was there at the same time

It was like he was the particles that hovered around during these moment of the past.

Some of the scene were reconstructed. He could tell it from the War of the Etherna

Even though, Azief himself had never seen the War of Etherna, he is quite sure that Odin got some of the details wrongs

Azief ask Odin this and Odin admitted it.

Odin told him that some of what he would see when Odin told his stories would be a mix of both.

Some of which Odin himself experience, in which he could give a more detailed reconstruction, almost indistinguishable from the real deal

And the other one which is reconstructed as the best he could with the information that he had.

Odin reminded him that some of the scenes that he seen must not be misunderstood as the true replication and reproduction of that scene

Unless specifically stated, Odin remind Azief to take some of it as reference and not the real deal

Though Azief is still surprised with the accuracy of some of the details of the war that Odin had created.

Odin told him that patched it up from many of the ancient sites that he used to excavate when he was young.

Yes, Odin was not born with the knowledge of the Etherna. Like any other living beings, he had to grow up and learn things.

In his youth, which might have spanned tens of thousands of years considering how old Odin really is, he said when he first learns about the Etherna he was eager to learn everything he could about this First Race that exist in existence.

And in that process, Odin discover many ruins, artifacts, curses and magic related to the Etherna

But most of the thing he learns about the War, he learns from the temples, the ruins, the holy sites and unholy sites left after the war by civilization older than Asgardian itself.

From there, he learns many things about the Etherna
