Lord Shadow

Chapter 843: Trapped in the cycle (2)

He sows karma and reap them, trapped forever in the cycle of rebirth and reincarnation, as he could not help himself from being free from karma?

The Seresian Demon like Asura race has a Killing heart. This enables them to remain firm in their desires and their will.

But the sound of that droning, the sound of that Wheel is now challenging his Killing Heart so much so that he felt like he is trapped in some kind of circle that he could not get out of.

When he did get out and thought he had found the exit, he was actually in another circle. Then he tried to breakout once again, and yet when he thought he had truly breakout this time, he realized he is in another circle.

He had never gotten out. He was only under the illusion that he had gotten out

For beings of his level, this kind of attack that targeted his soul is more deadly and more dangerous

It is not as flashy as fighting hand to hand and showing powerful fluctuations of energy. But it is more dangerous.

Because beings like him, and powerful creature like Azief, Jean and Hikigaya at their current level would not be easily destroyed.

Each one of them have their own ways of surviving when they reach this kind of level

As such when external attack used to be effective, when they reach this level, internal attack that attack the psyche and the souls is more effective on them

And round and round he goes about in the circle in his mind.

‘What is this this? Who am I?’ he thought to himself. The Demon King is frowning and he is actually feeling a little afraid now.

Was the memory that he saw was his reincarnation of the past or was it only a dream?

Like a man dreaming of being a butterfly only to think maybe he is the butterfly dreaming of being a human?

This kind of thoughts and memories and dreams enter the Demon King minds and he nearly got trapped by it

He knows he is on the verge of true and utter confusion.

He tries to remember what was he doing before he is the stone and the water, before he is the animal and human, before he is the demon and the alien.

He is trying to remember and then there is a vague image of a ring materializing in his mind and then his eyes shines with red light and there is a smile on his face as memories flooded in.

The ring was his anchor. And the anchor for demons is obsession

The Ten Eternal Rings of the Demon Emperor was always his obsession and the reason why he enters through that portal and suffer the suppression of the Will of the World and still stubbornly hold his ground

He came because of that Ring

‘heh, it worked’ Balfor thought to himself.

He had sealed that obsession deep in his heart the moment he felt like he was being sucked into that attraction power of the painting in the sky.

He didn’t know at that time what kind of things he would experience when the painting ensnares his thoughts but he knew he had to set up some countermeasures

At the moment he remembers the ring, his eyes shines as he remembers who he was and what he was doing before he enters this cycle of existence.

At that time, a specter like figure could be seen in each of his countless cycle of existence. Balfor notices that the specter watches over him in each cycle of existence

It was then that the specter comes out from each of the cycle of existence and release a sigh

His sigh echoes in this now Voidless space and a universe suddenly explode into existence. The sigh echoes without stopping and Balfor recognize that the sound of the sigh seems to harmonize with the sound of droning.

Before he couldn’t hear the droning sound but now that he is awake, he could hear the droning sound clearly

Balfor then recover back his solid form as he floats among the stars. The droning sound come from space itself and the stars.

But the space and the stars and the planets around him, all of them is not real. At least not real in the sense of it is not the true realm of existence.

Balfor narrowed his eyes and this time Balfor could see it. He smiles when he saw that specter finally revealed itself.

It was Azief.

He looks at Balfor and sighed.

‘I guess I still underestimated this Demon King’ Azief thought to himself

This is the battlefield he had created specifically for the Demon King. This is why he was confident in letting Jean go and minimize the damage on Earth while he tries to weaken the Demon King.

He even nearly sends the Demon King into an utter confusion but the Demon King still manage to break out from the confusion.

He was guiding the cycle of existence and rebirth of the Demon King. He had hoped that the Demon King would be affected deeply and could not extricate himself from the illusion.

Though, it is quiet wrong to call the images and scenes that the Demon King had saw an illusion.

Illusion is an underestimation of what this actually is.

the Wheel of Reincarnation and Rebirth could do many thing and one of them it is that it could show someone path to the Grand Path

But it also could trap someone in an artificial six path of reincarnations.

Azief sighed because he did not think that the Demon King was careful enough that he had managed to anchor himself onto an obsession before he enters into the six path of reincarnation dream

If not for that, Azief was seventy percent confident that he could defeat the Demon King in this world and weaken him later in the real world.

When Balfor eyes shines and saw Azief true form, he smiles.

‘I saw you’ he said. Azief frowned listening to the Balfor words

Because it meant that the Demon King has now gained his mind back.

All the cycle of existence that he had been through turns into motes of light and floats among the stars and space dust.

Each of the motes of light if one could observe it in near proximity, one could see the lives and experiences that the Demon King had endure

Each motes of light contained the lives of Balfor in the cycle of existence that is created by Azief.
