Lord Shadow



Sasha's heart raced with nervousness and anxiety as she propelled herself through the skies at lightning speed. 

"Shit!"

She couldn't help but curse inwardly at the slower speeds that had become the norm since the Multiversal Convergence. 

In this post-convergence world, teleportation and the physical speed of individuals had notably decreased.

As she dashed through the clouds, Sasha primary concern is Azief safety. 

Something about the sudden eruption of energy from his location has set off alarm bells in her mind. 

Her only wish at this moment was to teleport herself instantly to the source of the energy surge and ensure that Azief is alright. 

The urgency in her movements mirrored the unease that gnawed at her.

She gritted her teeth

"What did Azief do?' she thought to herself. 

Even though Sasha did not pay attention to the forest, that is just lip service she gave to Azief.

She still remembers the orders that Azief had given her before he went into seclusion inside that forest

"Don't pay attention to what is happening to the forest until he called her" 

Azief might have said those words, don't pay attention to the forest even if there is something dangerous happening to him. 

But could Sasha ignore such a thing?

She sigh in her heart

Azief had been transparent with Sasha about his decision to seal his own energy. 

He had explained to her that during this period of seclusion, he wouldn't be able to defend himself against the forest's beasts and monsters. 

Sasha, upon hearing this, naturally wanted to dissuade him from such a dangerous course of action. 

But she knew Azief well enough to understand that once he set his mind on something, there was little that could sway him.

Sasha recognized the reason behind Azief extreme choice. 

He was determined to test his limits and immerse himself in the experience of being mortal, even if it meant putting himself in harm's way.

Azief had explicitly ordered Sasha not to pay too much attention to the forest during his period of seclusion. 

Sasha is loyal. But not stupid. If she truly only loyal, then Azief would not have given so much trust toward her. 

If there was any danger to Azief, and Death Monarch met his demise in the forest despite her knowing the risks, Sasha was acutely aware of the dire consequences. 

Not only would her own life be in jeopardy, but it would also have far-reaching consequences for the world.

If Death Monarch dies even when she knows the danger, Sasha knows, the Ice Queen, the Divine Archer, Azief four great generals, Loki and Death Monarch friends would all hold her to account

As for the world?

The death of Death Monarch would lead to unprecedented instability, and the world might plunge into turmoil as various powers vied for supremacy in his absence. 

"Azief does not know how much his life is worth" Sasha thought to herself. 

Azief had previously lived as a lone individual, where his life and death had little impact on the world. 

However, the circumstances had drastically changed. 

Now, his life held immense significance, and even the mere rumor of his death could send shockwaves throughout the world.

The consequences of his demise would be far-reaching and catastrophic, capable of shattering the established order and plunging the world into chaos. 

So, how could Sasha not feel anxious. How could she not feel fearful? If Azief died…..she did not even want to imagine the kind of chaos that it would create

Sasha's anxiety and fear is entirely justified. 

The world has become dependent on Azief presence, and any disturbance in that equilibrium could lead to catastrophic consequences.

As she raced towards the forest, she couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency and dread. 

The radar had detected an unprecedented surge of energy, one that could potentially disrupt the very fabric of reality, time, and space. 

Such a phenomenon had never been recorded before….other than during the Multiversal Convergences and it is imperative that she reach Azief as quickly as possible to assess the situation and ensure his safety.

Sasha's voice carried a sense of urgency as she yelled to her agents, "I saw the forest! Quick!" 

She streaked through the sky like a comet, her determination evident in every step, that crush space and create gust of sharp winds

But as she approached the forest, an invisible force surged past her, and she reacted with lightning speed. 

BOOM!

With a powerful kick and a sudden shift in the air, she came to an abrupt stop, causing a sonic boom that echoed through the skies. 

Now hovering in the air, she scanned the forest in the distance, her expression unreadable. 

  She seems to be shocked. Then she gritted her teeth and she sighed.

She look at the distance, saw a blue light that seems more like a haze of energy discharge and she wanted to step forward but she held it back.

And she sighed again

It is clear that she did not want to stop. 

But she stops nonetheless. 

"Why stop? One of Sasha agent asked her as she suddenly stopped flying

"There is no need for it now" 

She looks at the distance, look at that pillar of blue light that is disappearing, then she looks behind her and with solemn expression

"Activate the Heaven Suppressing Formation!" Hearing this, the other agents on the sky narrowed their eyes

"The order?"

"Came directly from Death Monarch" Sasha answer

And the agent could not help but look at the distance, look at the sky turning red in that forest and nodded

These agents usually would listen to Sasha orders without any question. 

But the Heaven Suppressing Formation authorization could only be given by Death Monarch.

  If they employ the Heaven Suppressing Formation and the order did not come directly from Death Monarch, it would not be surprising if they would be dead tomorrow. 

"Now, we leave" 

And as fast as they came to the forest, they leave as fast as possible.

Upon her arrival at the Central Palace, Sasha wasted no time. 

She entered the grand throne room, where an intricately crafted sceptre awaited her touch. Gripping it firmly, she raised it high above her head.

As Sasha channelled her energy into the scepter, a dazzling golden light burst forth, shooting up into the heavens above. 

This radiant beam seemed to pierce through the very fabric of the sky, creating an awe-inspiring display that could be seen from all corners of Pandemonium.

The golden light gradually began to take shape, forming an intricate net-like apparition that expanded across the skies.

  Its shimmering, ethereal threads crisscrossed one another, casting a protective web over the entire realm of Pandemonium.

  A powerful pressure surged and the Heavenly Will above is suppressed and monsters and beast all over Pandemonium territory cowers in fear

Sina was cutting the leaves on her bonsai trees in her residence near a hill of flowers

But then she felt a menacing energy covering the Heavens and so she look up. 

She look at the sky and she frown.

  She narrows her eyes and her eyes seems to shine with variety of colours and as she look again at the sky, the sky seems to be clearer and she could see things she did not see before

A golden net covering the whole sky. 

She shakes her head

"Azief?" she seems to be asking

"Heaven Suppressing Formation?"

At the same time, the four great generals of Pandemonium, all in their palaces in the four corners of Pandemonium also look up at the sky and they frowned. 

The Palace Keeper, the officials, the people, the generals and kings and Queens all over Pandemonium, look up at the sky and their heart trembles.

The Heaven Suppressing Formation is suddenly out! Then what is the problem? 

Why should such formation being used?

And right now, of all times? 

Did something happen? 

The moment the formation was used, it is clear that it send a kind of signal to all the people in Pandemonium that something has happened. 

The common people run back to their house and prepare for anything. And the same for all of the people of Pandemonium

It was like they are preparing for a war

…

Sasha retreated and Azief is still there in the forest, floating in the air. 

He seems to be looking at the ring, waiting for something to happen. 

And then he began hearing a sound. 

Like a whisper. 

Like a scream. 

Like a word, like a song

It is all of this, and it is more. Hard to describe, hard to explain. 

These voices seems to be far away and yet near. It seems like it gathered and create momentum. 

Then a roar echoes but the roar is not loud. It was like the sound of the roar itself was muffled by some force.

And he had a feeling of wanting to roar with that sound. He could feel a certain feeling from that roar. 

And so, he closes his eyed and focus on the sound and only on that sound. At first, the sound of the forest fades away. 

The sound of the leaves blowing , the sound of the animals , the sound of the stream of water all of it seems to fades away to the background. 

And the sound of that roar being brought to the forefront

He focus even more and the more he focus, the more he feels. 

"Unwilling" he mutters. That is the first feeling he felt from the sound of that roar. An unwillingness that seems to be vented to something, someone. 

ROAR!
