Lord Shadow

Loki did not know what they were protecting but it must be something fragile for them to program the door to be destroyed in the way that it did.

The dust settles.

there is a long straight narrow path leading toward a wide rotunda hall. Loki close his eyes as he turns into green mist again and then then appears inside that round hall.

And then when he opens his eyes, he was shocked.

‘Hah’ he exclaims to himself. There is a trace of regret and sadness in his voice. It was almost like his voice is trembling.

Now he understands why, they were both eager to run.

Why Nathan could give up his life so willingly and why Riana was so insistent in wanting to resist him

He was suddenly reminded of the past where he had brought Riana to Greece and he sighed.

‘No wonder’ he said to himself as he looks at the precious treasure that Riana and Nathan had hidden.

As Loki saw the treasure, Nathan and Riana appears in the room. The dust rises up because of their speed.

They then look in shock as they saw Loki is already there. Bad premonition is rarely wrong.

They were too late. Loki had seen it. There is only silence in that large round hall.

They both did not dare to move. Riana gulped. She seems to fear the reaction of Loki. There is even a bit of hope.

Loki had noticed that the two of them had appeared. He sighed long and hard. The silence felt like an eternity

And then Loki suddenly said

‘You did not tell me about this, Ana.’ He said it without turning his face toward her. All Riana could see was his back.

And then tears falls down from her eyes.

‘Father…I…did not know how you would respond’

Loki close his eyes and sighed. He then turns his back and face both of them

He shakes his head and said

‘You have a daughter’ On a huge stone altar is a baby girl wrapped with a red blanket.

The red blanket itself has protection arrays. No normal weapons could hurt the baby girl unless they are at least Seed Forming leveler.

One could say such protection is very luxurious. The stone altar seems to have four slots on the corner of the four direction of the stone altar.

The formations and the runes all suggested that this stone altar is like some kind of teleportation formation.

One glance and Loki could tell that the destination of this teleportation array would not be on this Earth.

This kind of teleportation would break space and time and breaks barriers between worlds. It means Riana and Nathan was always prepared to send their baby into the Multiverse.

Probably a weak world where this baby would be like a deity where nothing could hurt her. Loki knows that there is such world out there in the Multiverse.

After all, even though she did not yet level up, the second generations of humans after the Fall is built differently than the first one.

The second generation inherits their parent abilities. Like some kind of metahumans. Some of them did not even have the status window

That is an abnormality but also something that would be common in the future. They might have tried to send this baby away in the case of emergency.

It is not surprising considering the background of this baby. Her mother is the subordinate of the Trickster. Her father is the Broker of information for the criminal underworld.

Both of her parents have a long list of enemies.

But the Multiversal Convergence storms had causes them unable to send their baby away. And there is also the fact that Will the Golden Speedsters and the Orvanians had tightly closes any tear between realities and dimensions

If Riana was determined to do it, she had to tear a channel between this world and the destination world for her daughter.

But Loki bets the Orvanians would be alerted if anyone tries to open a channel to another world this recent after Earth Prime just narrowly being able to close the Multiversal Convergence with the least possible damage

Loki had expected a precious treasure hidden in the basement. He did not think he would find something even more precious than gold and powerful weapons.

A baby. A life

There is nothing more precious for a father and a mother than a child of their own. It is no wonder that they could not leave.

It is no wonder that Riana would disobey him this adamantly. There is no winning a mother love.

Loki had seen some terrible mothers in his journey. There are mothers who would sacrifice their child. There are mothers that would abandon their child.

And some even torture their own children. But not Riana. Not her. She could never leave her child.

Because she felt what it was like to grow up without a father and a mother. She was raised by him.

She understood…. the meaning of what it means to be family. It is not blood. It was never about blood.

A family is those who were beside you, who were there to help you and guide you. In the end, blood is only one of the factors that made a family, family.

Loki now understand why. that is why he sighed.

Suddenly, the tense atmosphere seems to be alleviated.

Loki come closer to the baby.

Nathan was worried and he was about to attack Loki but Riana step in front of him and hold him at bay

She looks at Nathan and said

‘My father would not hurt her’

Loki did not seem to care about Nathan attempt to attack him as he come closer to the baby. He looks at her and he smiles.

‘Did you two get married?’

Riana look at the back of the man she regarded as her father and it seems to look like such a lonely back.

She replies to him

‘I did’

‘Is it in Greece?

Hearing this, there is a faint smile on Riana face

‘Yes’

‘Is it Crete?’

She nodded and reply with another yes. Loki laughs a bit. There is joy in his laugh.

‘You told me once that if you were to get married, you will get married in Crete.

I remember, she said.

Loki hold the child under his arm as he remembers a story from a few years back. The baby moves a bit but she did not wake up from her sleep.

Nathan was worried but Riana was not. Loki on the other hand was remembering old memories as he holds that baby on his arm

At the time, Loki took them to a vacation in Crete. Of course there is monsters all around that area and he also have some objective going there.

The Seven Warlords of Greece was all over Greece solidifying their holds over the large cities. And Loki had something to do there.

He also wanted to check up on the Oracle at that time. Fortunately, at that time, The Oracle did not yet get the full memories of the Oracle from that other timeline.

He was also trying to see if the Magician of Aleppo would come to Greece. There is something that he needed in Greece.

But like the matter with Oracle, Loki came to early.

But even without all of these, there is still a few drug cartels to dismantle, assassin to interrogate, kicking ass and taking names and all that stuff but after solving that, he brought them playing in the beachside villages of Crete.

There are not many people in the villages around the beachside other than powerful levelers because of sea monsters but for people like Loki and Riana and her sister, sea monster do not scare them

Loki chuckles and he said to Riana

‘Pink sand beaches of Elafonisssi and the Great Gorge of Samaria in the rugged White Mountains to the adorable hill top chapels. I still remember it like it was yesterday. The beach was a little deserted and the chapel was broken in many places but it is still a great place to have a wedding’

Riana then said

‘the beaches are as pretty as it was before. The Great Gorge of Samaria is a breeding ground for monsters and there is a dungeon beneath it but if you do not disturb them, they would not come out from there. And the chapels were reconstructed when I went there again’

Loki chuckles.

Then he asks Nathan

‘Did you know, Nathan? Out of all the three sisters, she was the most romantic one. A girl that wanted a family of her own’

‘heh’

He chuckles

‘Greisha is a dreamer. Trisha is a realist…at least most of the time. except for the matters of her heart, she is a realist and she could always make the most rational decisions. As for Riana, she always found some romance in everything. No wonder, she ends up with you. You have many problems. And she wanted to fix it’
