Lord Shadow

Chapter 1179: The eyes in the dark (1)

The ripples which is slow and subtle and affects only a little began spreading out, bigger and stronger with each choice that he made and the choices that the people around him made

Nothing could predict such a big change from such a simple and almost insignificant choice

But the Azief of this timeline is none of that.

From the beginning Azief had made all the right choices. The right choices are the choices that is determined by Fate and Destiny

And that is the definition of right choices. A choice approved by Fate and Destiny.

But in the aftermath of the Multiversal Convergence, Azief made the wrong choice for Destiny but a right choice for himself

And one different choice made all the difference.

He believes in Sofia, and while in the end it happens almost exactly like it was in the other timeline, with him having to leave Sofia and Sofia leaving him, the process was different

And to some people that might not mean much.

But it does mean something.

Like that gardener in that beautiful garden that keep sowing seeds hoping that it would grow, the process is sometimes more important than the result itself

And right now, even as he is looking at the advanced technology of Orvan with the heart and desire to advance humanity, this is something that truly went out of the course of fate and destiny

In the other timeline, Katarina was never kidnapped. And while the Time Crisis did happen, it did not happen this way

In the other timeline, there is no Pandemonium, there is no seven great powers and there is no such thing as the Article of Distribution.

A small change had now finally converged to allow a great change. And this reverberation of a choice so different from the intended story created a ripple in the frequency of fate and destiny.

It reverberates to all of the Omniverse. And there are some that could sense it. And some of them would also like to gamble on this game of a lifetime.

Standing on an illusory tree, surrounded by stars, a one eyed being look toward the stars. He wears a gray robe and one of his eye socket is empty.

There are two ravens flying around him, each one is as fast as light itself warping space and time wherever they flew.

Jumping on the stars and rushing through the space dust is his two wolves. His one eye is shining bright like the Sun

Odin Allfather, the Lord of the Eight Realms and the King of Asgard. Strapped on his back is a spear wrapped with some special clothes sown with the design of runes.

He is wearing a blue robe with Asgardian design.

He closes his eyes for a second and then opens it as he moves his finger around, like he was feeling the cosmic dust that flows around him

The cosmic dust passes through the gaps of his fingers and he could feel the particles in each of the dust.

Odin since he had woken up from his slumber has been waiting. He is waiting for a fated chance.

But this fated chance is not the real fated chance. It is a fated chance that is born out of the calculation of destiny and fate

This is a fated chance for himself but not the fated chance of fate and destiny. Hence, it is not real.

At least not to fate and destiny. Sometimes, he went to Alfhaim. Other times, he would visit the Vanir s and even Jotunheim.

None could sense his coming and goings. He had been to the place where his sworn brother Loki of Asgard, Wargod and The Great Supremacy Azul met each other

He had understood certain things. And new ideas have filled his head. But he also knows that there is time for everything. And even though the clock is ticking, he still had to wait

He knows all about destiny and fate. It is not easy to change it. But if one does want to change it, one had to be strategical about it.

One had to enter and leave at the right moment, affecting the right thing at the right place in the right moment

So, he waits. Surtr has been anxious and so do the others. If he did not go to slumber, did not let Baldur get killed, did not let all the subsequent event to happen, will there ever be a Ragnarok?

And if there is no Ragnarok…. then when the End came….it will really end. Not everybody is on board with his plan.

And they are searching for him. Today, he is here on top of this large branch of a tree. Of an ash tree that towers over stars and planets, the size of which is hard to comprehend.

An illusory tree that is sustained by faith. He is standing on the branch tree, looking at the distance, looking at the stars and the planets

If he is on his throne, his vision could see even more. But then he senses it and his eyes suddenly narrowed

He closes his hand and there is a smirk on his face.

‘Changes’ he said to himself.

Smiling he said

‘Fate and Destiny sow the wind and now there is a storm’

His eyes look toward another direction, and his gaze pierce the clouds of gas, the nebulous colorful space matters, piercing through worlds and light years away, his gaze rested on a fertile planet.

That planet is the Seresian planet. As he wanted to see deeper into the planet, he felt his eyes stinging.

And he frowned and retracted his vision. His eyes felt pain

He is still on that tree and then he closes his eyes for a second.

Opening it up the discomfort he had felt disappeared

‘Orvan. So…. they did not move the last time. But now they are making a move. What are they planning?’ he thought to himself.

Even though Odin did not deal with the Orvanians a lot, he does know this race.

Most of the time Asgard maintain a quite strict requirement for opening a dimensional barrier. There is a Gatekeeper of the Bifrost after all and he is not some small fry

The Bifrost of Asgard anchors all of dimensional doors and paths to other world. This is to make sure that nobody could just open up and mess with time and space and hopped through dimension wantonly.

Of course, as for the royal family of Asgard they have their ways. Loki for example, had his own back channel of dimensional doors that he could tap into.

Thor has Mjolnir.

That hammer is not some normal hammer simply to beat Jotuns to death.

It had other function, one of which is to smash open the barriers of space and time, smashing through dimensional barriers and hammering the Laws of the Universe.

It is the same for his spear Gungnir. But most of the time, they know their limits. And there is the fact that they are inside the Source Wall and not outside of it.

That is not under the jurisdiction of the Orvanians.

The time in the Source Wall, the fluctuations and the frequency of it is quite different from the vast universe beyond the Source Wall.

So, his interaction with the Orvanians was limited. Though he did clash with them a few times five thousand years ago during that battle in Milky Way galaxy, the way humans called their galaxy.

But one thing that he does know about Orvanians was that, this is a race that has always not interfere with anything other than doing their duty, a duty that they were cursed upon by the Creator.

Well, Odin after all had learned Great Knowledge when he hanged himself on the branches of Yggdrasil.

The price was his eyes. The reward……knowledge. He is called One Eyed Odin in some parts of the Universe.

There is a reason why people stressed the One Eyed part.

That one eye of his, the only one that works is an eye that could see through lies, see through deception and see past, present and future at times.

So, it is not at all surprising to know that Orvanians was cursed. A curse that has span from the early beginnings of Time to now.

That is a long epoch that passes. And still the curse has not been lifted. It must be some kind of a powerful curse.
