Lord Shadow

She now remembers what Loki told him to do with that woman. She got up from her chair and walk to the back of her workshop.

She was rushing as she went to the stable and walk past by it. She then arrived in an obelisk-like structure that is wider that a normal obelisk monument.

This obelisk structure has a silver door with golden handle.

Other than Sina no one could enter this obelisk.

Trying to enter it by force would force the items inside the structure to be teleported to a hidden location.

This obelisk structure is called the Pills Purgatory

Inside it is full of Sina pills that is deemed dangerous and just smelling it or accidentally crushing one of the pills, could lead to a tragic consequences and effect.

Azief in the building of this structure even injected his own blood that managed to at least repel and prevent the effects of the pills from leaking outside.

It is also reinforced by magic formations, inscription master, tattooist, and array formation that is laid out around the area that span ten kilometers in all directions.

Sina pull down the handle and the door opened without any resistance as the arrays beneath the structure glows for a second indicating it was Sina that is opening it.

There is a translucent barrier that resembles a floating liquid covering the threshold of the door.

Sina walk forward and pass through that barrier effortlessly.

She then closes the door and instead of rushing through the spiraling staircase of the obelisk she went to one of the book racks.

She pulls the book Herb and Its Function: What Kinds of Herbs Could Make You Keep Laughing and behind it there is a small switch.

A very small switch that no one would have notice is behind it.

Considering that only Sina could enter this structure, this kind of measure almost seems unnecessary.

But Sina knows it is necessary.

While this structure acts as the depository for her dangerous Pills it could also function as a shelter during emergency.

Azief built it especially for her and it is forbidden to conduct a search on this structure without the express permission of Death Monarch making it the safest structure in all of Pandemonium aside from the Death Monarch Palace

Because it is also considered as a shelter Sina also built tunnels and secret rooms that leads to many interconnected underground tunnels that connects to many other places in Pandemonium

But if people know that this also serves as a shelter in times of emergency then it would be a target.

That is why people only know this place as the Pill Purgatory that is filled with dangerous pills. No one other than Azief and Sina knows this place other functions.

Of course there is also Loki.

She did not tell him about this place function but he knows. That is why he dares kidnap people even though the Shadow Guard has surveillance on all of Pandemonium.

But there is a problem because of its function as a shelter.

There is the matter of the fact that the air inside here is poisonous to anyone other than Sina because she was the one who created this pill and the only one immune to its side effects.

That is why she built a room, a special room in an underground cave where the poisonous properties of her pills will not harm a person taking refuge in that room.

She flicks the switch upward and then the book rack started moving sideways, revealing a spiraling staircase to an underground cave.

Sina rushed ahead this time not bothering to close the secret path as no one is inside the Pill Purgatory

She walks to the stone staircase that seems to be formed naturally as the crystal like orbs embedded in the ceiling of the cave lit up each time she take a step, lighting her path forward.

She passed a natural lake formed in the cave tunnels and then she arrived in a clearing.

In that clearing there is a large house.

Sina quickly enter the house and she checks the room. When she arrives at the bedroom, she saw her.

She exhales a relieved breath.

Looking at that woman who is still unconscious she also have some question

‘I don’t know why Loki did not capture you by himself and brought you with him instead of asking my favor but now I have to let you go’

Laying there unconscious on the bed inside this house is the Oracle Erika. Sina herself dint understand why Loki capture the Oracle.

And he left strict instruction to make sure she is not harm in any way. She just didn’t understand the purpose of such actions.

But Loki must have a plan. If there is one thing she knew about Loki is that he is a meticulous schemer.

Loki ability in scheming is only rivaled by President Hirate of the World Government. And at times Sina even felt he surpasses Hirate in terms of scheming.

It was like he is walking a hundred steps forward. It was almost like he could see the future for him to set up his moves so perfectly

Sina looking at the Oracle slowly approach the bed and bring out a pill. This pill has green and blue lines around it.

There is a distinct aura of monster in it.

She then brought it to Erika nose and she crushes the pills. The pills let outs a greenish bluish smoke that enter into Erika nose.

‘This should keep you asleep for a few more hours.’ Sina said as she put the Oracle behind her back and quickly bring her out from the Pills Purgatory.

She then went to the forest and left her there like she was instructed.

Not long after she left a serpent appears. The serpent waited for a while, unmoving among the grass.

It waited like it was seeing if anyone would be putting surveillance. A few moments passed, the wind passes by, the wolves howls in the distance, nothing happened.

Then it moves.

That serpent swallowed the Oracle whole and started slithering along the forest quickly.

Reaching near the border of the forest and the near settlement of humans the serpent stopped.

It then gags itself and spit out the Oracle out of its mouth, full of green gooey fluid around her which dries out almost immediately.

It hisses and then slithers away. Then a nightingale bird cries out a song in the distance. The song was like lament.

And then the serpent that was slithering away exploded in a gory display of flesh.

The Oracle body was left there while her bodyguard is scouring the forest searching for her.

Somewhere in an island, a person opened his eyes. And then he releases a relieved breath

Loki now is out of Pandemonium

He knows if he stays a bit longer Azief would be able to pinpoint where he is so he went away before that happened.

Loki and Azief are not enemies. But they do disagree in many matters especially in matter regarding Loki action.

Azief knows that Loki have future knowledge. But Azief is not Azief if he did not do what he did. For someone who defied the entire galactic order, how could he not be stubborn?

Loki knows always that the hardest thing he will face in changing the future is the stubbornness of Azief.

But Loki understands Azief actions. He could only act upon what he knows. He could not act upon what might be.

But for Loki…he could not reveal too much. He revealed it to Azief because he deemed it necessary but isn’t he paying the Price now.

Nowadays…there is a lot of thing he knows he forgotten. But he couldn’t even remember what he had forgotten.

There is also Sasha that forces him out from the island. She might be the one that informs Azief of his presence.

Pandemonium is one of the Three Great Ruling Force in the world. The other two is the Republic and the World Government.

They are the three forces that maintain the balance of the power structure and rule the world.

Loki had many guys embedded in many other factions but it is hard to plant moles in World Government and the Republic and even more so in Pandemonium.

Not even money would entice one to work so close to proximity with the Death Monarch and caught lying to him.

Azief effort of enhancing his reputation made his image among the populace of the world to be regarded as a terrifying figure.

No one dares crosses him. This is the power of reputation. He did not even have to do much

Loki is now in one of the hundred islands that sprouted after the Fall near Pandemonium.

While Sina did not spy for him and he did not send spies to Pandemonium, he has other tricks. He saw all the things that happen from the serpent eyes and he nodded to himself

But Loki also knows Azief might have noticed. The stunt he did would surely alerted Azief and Sasha.

And Sasha definitely noticed as she sent one of her nightingale birds to sing the Songs of Laments

‘I thought I was ready. Who knows there is a problem? Tch. Who the hell stole the power source?’

He also hated the fact of how he had to handle this situation. He could not deal with the Oracle personally

Oracle is a unique existence. If he handles it personally, one touch and the Oracle could see his future.

And she would know the moment she touches Loki. So, he could only use indirect method.

He sighed as he looks at the distance.

‘I need to meet the Broker and get information on what is happening in the Moon right now’ he said as he moved away.
