Lord Shadow

TANZANIA

MNEMBA ISLAND

The seagulls fly lows and snatch a few fishes in the rocks as the waves of the sea crash upon the large rocks around the idyllic and calm island.

Mnemba Island is a beautiful island in the east coast of Zanzibar, a small country in the scheme of things.

Most of the people in Tanzania died in the initial Fall. Those who survived the Fall were culled during the Weronian War.

It was like the world just doesn’t give the people of Tanzania any breaks. Death after death was heaped in the already broken country.

The initial phase of the Fall is the mutated sapiens and the monsters attack. Nowadays, there is still some mutated sapiens roaming the land but it is easily destroyed.

Or if not that they would be mauled to death by some monsters that eat mutated sapiens. In the initial phase about one third of the population of Tanzania was affected.

And then that one third kills half of one third and then they had also had a time where their countries are divided by warlords.

Death and more death.

The human population keeps decreasing and then the Weronian came. It was the straw that broke the camel back.

And in the Weronian Occupation many of the people in the world were slaughtered but Tanzania is one of the few countries that get the brunt of the hit.

Most places under huge umbrellas like the countries or nations under the Republic or the World Government could ask military aid and not to mention big population center has more resistance and more powerful people.

But Tanzania just went through a great civil war among them

And when peace just sets in the country, the Weronian came attacking, the World Government at the time had to focus on other sectors of their influence and when they arrived to save the rebellion against the Weronian Overlords in Tanzania it was already too late.

Nowadays, this country seems a little empty.

Empty and forgotten, the broken street without people, and forest vines sweep through the road and the structures abandoned by human.

Probably because of the casualties of China that was so big and massive in human history that Tanzania death pales in comparison.

Nowadays, there are only a few people that come from Tanzania.

In the world right now, there are a lot of refugees and organization that welcomes them. After all nowadays, the world has land but have no inhabitants.

Many of the report compiled by the experts in the World Government and the Republic said that the first to die out during the Fall was the indigenous tribe that lives separated from the world and from modern civilization.

Then the seconds to die out were unlucky islanders who live in close proximity with the sea in which there is a lot of gigantic sea monsters.

The Fall itself created tsunamis in many parts and at times created a great upheaval when a large sea monster wriggle their body.

The situation is different now of course with people like Death Monarch, Earthshaker, ice Queen, Time Master and others that appears.

Nowadays, the large monster could be handled easily by a battalion of soldiers from either the World Government or the Republic.

But in the beginning of the Fall, no humans possessed powers like they did now.

Luck plays a part in their survival. It is cruel but it is the truth. If not for some luck, the people that are standing on the top right now might not have existed.

‘Ah, this is life’ a person said smiling with his handsome face.

A young man wearing a golden clothed robe is chilling around the island sipping a few carbonated drinks.

How did he get his hand on carbonated drinks is anyone guess considering that such company that produces such drink does not exist now.

Mnemba Island is a tiny island in the shape of a heart, a paradise island in the world.

A few months ago, this place is crawling with monsters and its shore is always visited by sea monsters.

But now, it is clear without any monster circling the island and aerial beast hovering around the island air space.

For some reasons there is no monster on the island or around the island. It was almost like they were avoiding the place for some reason.

‘This is like paradise,’ the young man said as he lay down on the mat he put on the sandy beach. Then he rolled around under the large canopy.

The whole world is now worrying about the meeting in Pandemonium between the Death Monarch and Hirate, speculating whether the world needs to prepare for another war but this person seems to have no worries.

This man was chilling around without his usual companion without guards.

He wanted to recover and what is a better way to recover other than to take a few vacations every now and then.

He was about to take another sip of the drink when suddenly the space around him rips. The man was about to waves his hand when he realizes that aura.

His eyes sharpened and he stayed his hand. An aura he recognized is coming out from that rip in space.

And then he smirks a bit

‘He found me’

He said to himself. But he was clearly not shocked.

‘Well, it is only a matter of time after all’ he thought to himself.

But he is clearly not panicked.

While this island look like it is not protected it is probably one of the most heavily protected islands in the world that nobody knows.

There is three Sea energy lodes here which is used to power the formation etched on the entire roots of the island.

Each plant, each blades of grass it etched with some trace of formations. This is an island made of formation

There is also blessing that was given to this island by Paladins and Wizards.

There is an elliptical formation that connected with the octagon formation in the center of the island that enables the island to be undetected by Divine Sense or any other Sight abilities.

It also was imbued with certain properties that enable this island to hide in a pocket dimension for a while.

It is even more protected and more defensive than even the World Government island of Peace.

So, this man knows there is only person that could rip apart space as easily as this and find his hideout.

What island could be this protected and what kind of person that could create such measures of protection that almost borders on perfection?

It is of none other than the man with all the tricks, The Trickster Loki. He has been hiding here after he finished recovering the power source for his device.

The Magician stole his power source for some experiments. Thankfully Loki manages to use the Syndicate to help him track down the Magician.

Weirdly the power source was left when he got to the Magician hideout.

After that he went here to Tanzania to rest

He of course did not meant thing to go this far but what he could do. This time there is too many things that went out of his expectation.

He had to handle many things and there is always a chance that he could overlook something. He did not overlook over that matter but he also did not solve that matter.

And now it is coming back to bite him in the ass.

The rip in space is getting larger as that aura slowly comes out from the rip.

The space and the time around that rips seems to be in chaos, causing Time to sometime reverse and sometimes accelerating.

He knows who it is that is coming.

But he was not startled.

He just got up and pats the sand on his buttocks as he waited for someone to come out from the black rip in space.

Coming out from the rip is a young beautiful man. A beautiful face that could break any girl’s heart and the smile on his face could enchant any girls.

But….to Loki, that smile is revolting and detestable.

Loki smiles wide like seeing someone he relay likes.

The man stepped out from the black rip in space calmly and without any fear.

The young man is wearing fur clothing, his long silver hair fluttering in the wind as his left eyes were covered by his hair.

And Loki start with a jab on his fashion

‘Wearing fur clothing in a hot place like this, you look like an insane person, old friend’ Loki said, his face is smiling but his eyes is wary.

But he clearly looks like he is welcoming this person.

But both of them know, they hated each other to death but each have their own difficulties in unable to kill each other freely.

The young man only chuckles like he was hearing a joke.

‘Loki, we meet again. Still talking too much aren’t you?’ that young man said as the black rip behind him closed up and the Time around it returns to normal

But anyone with high discernment could sense that the rip seems to weaken the space around that area.

The area where the rip was located now could be breached easily if one could found the point of origin of this young man uninvited visit.

He looks at his left and right and his eyebrows raised, full of questions.

The wind blows his sleeve and the young man could feel the rejection force from this island trying to expel him.

‘It seems he is not entirely playing around’ that young man thought in his mind.

If not for the fact that his body destroys the rejection force before it even landed on his body, he would be surely be teleported back to where he was before.

Any other man would not have been able to do that. But he is not like any other man. He smiles as he dispels the waves of invisible rejection force that is bombarding his body

This island is an island reborn to be the perfect hiding spot by Loki.

The young man could see the mat on the sand, the chairs and table under the canopy, the hammock on the nearby palm tree and he chuckles a bit.

‘You are relaxing? I guess everything is truly a joke for you’ he said playfully smiling all the while.

Loki just snickered and said

‘Well, everything is a joke for things like you. So why couldn’t I make a joke out of it?’ And Loki smirked; his smile hides blades and knives.

The as the winds blows over them, they look at each other.

In their gaze there is only determination. For both of them they want to see this game between them until the end
