Lord Shadow

The clouds all were absorbed into that palm, the wind of the four direction all were gathered inside that palm and the worldly energy destroyed as even the Laws of gravity seems to slowly lose its hold.

Storms forms and thunders and lightning follows as the palm was formed in almost a few seconds.

As it descended down Azief still could not forget Void eyes looking at that palm.

When he saw the palm is coming near him he laughed madly and then he pointed his finger.

There is no power in that finger and no aura whatsoever. It is just his finger without any power.

The moment Azief palm met that finger all the energy in that palm strike dissipated like it never existed in the first place.

His clothes all become tattered because of the force of the wind, as it rips apart from his body and Void become exposed to the cold.

By now Azief knows that clothes are not real clothes but a suit disguised as clothes.

No wonder, after his clothes was destroyed, he fell down to the ground as his body shivers like he could not stand the winter wind and the cold atmosphere.

While that cold is quite biting, for any levelers even for Pillar Forming, it would not induce such reactions like it did on Void.

Azief clearly saw it at that time but he did not understand it at that time. How could a man that could withstand his palm strike with one finger could not stand cold?

It wasn’t until he got the information from Loki that he understands why

Void possess normal human physiology and as such the cold affected him. He then teleported away like he couldn’t stand the cold, no doubt using the suit technology.

Loki did not know all this but he could have guessed accurately that it is Azief attack on Void that causes him to come to Pandemonium and try to disturb the fragile political balance in Pandemonium.

He might have hoped it would break Death Monarch concentration and cause him to be distracted, or he might have hoped that the quarrel between the Central Government and the Three Generals would lead to a war where Death Monarch had no choice but to execute his general and his officials for inciting chaos and havoc in his Continent.

Whatever his reason was he nearly succeeded.

If not for Wang Jian timely interference stopping the battel at the Palace, Azief might have to truly punish his generals and his officials.

After thinking of all this Loki look at Azief and Azief is looking at him and said

‘It seems we need to get serious about this’

‘You have any plans?’ Azief ask. Loki have been thinking about this matter for a long time and the information he got from Trisha enables him to form a plan to stop such thing form happening ever again on pandemonium.

After all, Loki could not allow Void to distract Azief from his breakthrough. After all, how could the Time Crisis be started if Azief did not break through Divine Comprehension

‘The only reason he could teleport inside Pandemonium was because we didn’t know he was wearing a suit that enables him to transform his Void energy into some other kind of properties that enables him to manipulate Time and Space around him. We could just ask the research department to create Matter Repelling Array. The moment that is achieved, if Void enter Pandemonium, his suit would be rendered useless. The energy he had and his abilities is only ability and energy nullification if one thinks about it calmly. The reason why no one could pin that ability of his before was because of his suit that enable him to teleport and making people to mistake his teleportation as also one of his ability.’

Azief nodded. Now, that he knows what kind of power Void has, he could now plan on how to restrict him.

however, Azief also feel that he should not be near that guy. Judging from what he knew now, if he is near that guy, anyone could assassinate him.

As long as he is out of range, he would be invincible. But the moment he is around Void, all of his energy and Disk would be useless.

He would turn into nothing but mortal.

He doubts Void could kill him even when he has no powers but the people in the distance would no doubt kill him using arrows, stones or even guns.

It is the same kind of thing that happen when he lost his power after the Purifying Fire.

It is his most vulnerable moment so people targeted that moment. Void provide a new challenge for him

He is exactly Azief opposite.

Below his throne, Loki continued his analysis.

‘Truth is, only the people around him would lose their ability. That explains how easy it was for him to kill Athena soldiers. They must have felt shock and fear when they find out all of their energy went away and feeling like mortal once again. On the other hand, he must have repaired his suit and while that suit would not stand to pressure it would probably be dangerously powerful in front of normal humans’

Azief nodded as he too came into the same conclusion

‘Void came to Athena camp, nullify their powers and kill them all with his suit ability. If not because I clashed with him before I might have thought other people would be responsible’

Loki nodded.

This is Void. It doesn’t matter whether you suspect him or not. It doesn’t matter whether his scheme was successful or not’

Loki said as he sighs and he continues

‘He is a madman. Maybe he did it because he wanted you to execute your own people. Maybe he did it expecting a civil war and to foster distrust between the Central Government and the Three Army. Or…. probably he just wanted to see chaos. The more you try to understand him the more you would be confused. Because you are not crazy like him’ Loki said.

Azief fell into deep contemplation.

‘What do you suggest I do?’

‘Breakthrough’ Loki said.

‘Then how about all of you? What about Katarina? Sofia? Sina? You? And all of my people?’

‘I didn’t know you care about your people that much’

Azief smirk bitterly.

‘Like you have seen, the people I care about tend to get kidnapped or become leverage. Feelings sometimes should be hidden so it would become an ammunition your enemy use to shoot at you’

Loki nodded agreeing with what Azief said

‘For now, we could tell them all this information. The Broker will try to suppress this information but we should also hide the fact that Void was the one that orchestrates all of this chaos in Pandemonium. We don’t want the people to be panicked and there is no reason to raise the prestige of our enemy. The Republic would not want Katarina to get caught up in all of this and…. I’ll take care of the others. You do your thing.’

Loki seems to have already a plan ready. Azief was impressed.

Azief then laughed and he nodded.

‘You are always on my side. Sometimes it makes me forget that we don’t agree on many things’ Loki bitterly smiles and then he said

‘You know what I want from you. For you to stay alive. And I’ll do anything to make sure of that’

Azief sighed.

‘And that is what I am afraid of’ Loki could only sighed

Azief then look at Loki and shakes his head.

‘Where did we go wrong Loki?’

Loki laughed

‘There is nothing going wrong. It is just two people walking different path. Where is wrong and right on that?

Azief hearing this chuckles

‘Sometimes, I envy that optimism of yours’ Loki shake his head and then he said

‘Well, I’m not really rainbow and sunshine type of guy, but when I am beside you, any guy would look like the rainbow and sunshine type of guy.’

Azief laughed for a few second and then he was about to said something when Loki turn his head back and retreated from the throne step

‘It seems your Generals and your officials is coming to meet you’

Loki could sense they coming and he is not the only one. Azief also senses them coming and he take a deep breath as he nodded

Loki then could understand how much of a hassle today would be in the Court.

‘I guess they all wanted to blame each other and will ask you to redress their grievance. I should go now’ Azief nodded as he too could guess what will happen in the Court today but before Loki could come out of the door Azief said

‘Tomorrow meet me in the Garden. I need to talk to you about something important.’

Loki heard it but he did not turn back his head as he only halted his steps, nodded and went out from the Throne Room leaving Death Monarch there alone.

As he walks the crowded corridor, he smiles bitterly as he could guess what Azief would like to talk to him about.

He thought to himself and said

‘Why are you making this hard on me, brother?’

Meanwhile inside the Throne Room, Death Monarch lean his body onto the cold hard throne and close his eyes.

His mind seems to be thinking of something g and he sighed.

‘I guess this is the only way I could imprison you Loki’ Azief muttered silently as the door of the throne room was open and the Three General and his officials walk in and then kneel in front of Death Monarch throne.

Azief shows them a cold smile as the throne room was closed by the Keeper of the Palace and the Court meeting began
