Lord Shadow

Chapter 965: Stepping once again into the muddy world iv

He was planning a scheme for a timeline that is different from him. For that to happen, all of the tragedy that happen in his timeline should happen like clockwork.

For that to happen, he must die. This is his way of finding a chance of life in the path of death

Azief had predicted that Jean would be able to roll back time to bring back time to the infancy of the Fall without incurring certain paradox, making the time period that they live in, to be nothing more an information stream instead of a real timeline, thus avoiding a time paradox.

There is no other timeline than this. That is how Time God had altered the timeline.

Seeing all of that vision, Erika finally understand certain moves of Azief that did not make sense in the past.

Loki had always clash with him in that other timeline.

Regardless of how easy it was for Azief to kill Loki, he never did. And from the vision she saw, Azief had even supported Loki secretly at that time.

In that other timeline, they were not sworn brothers. There is no reason for him to support Loki from the dark when there is no connection between them

In the end, Loki had even regarded Azief as a rival and even become friend with him, later in his late years and it was then that Azief shares a few of his regrets and his hope.

This is also part of his plan.

All of that conversation he had with Loki, was all to prepare Loki for the journey he was about to undertake.

Yes, Azief of that other timeline chose Loki as his chess piece. Loki got the idea of helping Azief succeeding the Six trials of Azul from Azief himself

Azief had mentioned to Loki before how he regretted his choice and how if he had walked the Perfection Path until the end, he would become even stronger

And even after the death of Azief, when Loki, Sofia and Jean rack their brains how to save the Omniverse, one of the priorities was to enhance Azief fighting strength.

And one of that method is to help Azief pass the Six Saber trials. And who told Sofia and Jean this? It is Loki

And Loki is not the only chess piece that Azief had arranged beforehand.

Yewa Hafar probably also falls into Azief calculation. And she herself must be also in that calculation considering that Azief did not remove the eye

He knew that the eye would be like a recording device.

Yet, even knowing that, he did not remove it. Erika believe that Azief believe that she would one day found this vision and act the way she did after knowing it.

There is of course many of the fragment of the vision of Azief she still did not find amidst the thousands of beads.

She would start searching for it of course, to know the scheme of Azief. Now, there is another task she had added in the list of things she should do

Who knows who else is his chess piece in this world, not knowing that they are the chess piece?

Now, this is true Etherna chess. All-encompassing and all knowing!

Deep, cunning and unfathomable. That is the characteristic of the scheme of the God of Death. This is the knowledge that only she knows

And because of that she knew that in this timeline, when Azief broke through Sovereign level, he would once again be able to access through the Veil

But whether he could seek the vision of his other timeline, that is another story. After all, the only reason why Erika manage to locate those vision is because she knows that there would be a trace of the vision of Azief in the Veil

But would Azief of this timeline knows it? That is remain to be seen.

‘Hah’ she sighed. this is a game of chess. And the layout was actually laid down by Azief, in a timeline that no longer exist.

Erika shudders to think how deep this scheme really goes.

Erika was thinking of this and she appears dazed in the eyes of Antonius.

Antonius come near her and was about to tap her shoulder to snap her out of her daze but then she sighed and shakes her head, like she wanted to clear her head

Antonius take a step back as Erika slowly walked out from the hut.

Seeing that Erika is going out of the hut, Antonius come near the bed, and carry Void on his back as he walked out from the hut, walking beside Erika

‘Where should we go?’ Antonius asked.

Erika look behind her and look at Antonius and Void on his back and her smile falters a bit.

‘I forgot he is with us. He does help a lot when there is some vision that I don’t want to see with his peculiar ability of neutralize everything. But when travelling with him, it is true that we could not use conventional way’ Antonius understood what Erika is talking about

With Void among them, they could no just fly in the sky or use teleport stone to teleport themselves to some other continent.

Antonius then ask Erika

‘Wouldn’t you be prepared for this?’ Erika smiles returns back

‘As a matter of fact, I did. I got someone to deliver us the Narwhal’

‘Narwhal? The sea creature?’ Erika shook her head and said

‘An anti-detection, anti-bullet, anti-energy field with all the state of the art weaponry technology submarine half the size of a Battlestar. The Quarters is also very luxurious. And I need some luxurious lifestyle after all these years living like some kind of forest gypsy’ she said with a smile

However, there is a question in Antonius mind.

Most of the time, anything that the Oracle wanted would be relayed to him and he would be the one doing all of this thing.

Because Antonius is the only one that she brought with him all of those years ago to the Stonehenge area as she waits for someone to come

Then who did she contact and who has the ability to provide such a thing to her?

‘Who…. answer the call?’ He asked.

‘The Seven Warlords of Greece’ Erika unhesitantly reply.

‘Ah’ Antonius said in realization. No wonder, he thought.

Those Seven Warlords very much respected the Oracles as most of them rose to power because of the guidance of the Oracle.

He sighed

This means, they are stepping back into world politics.

‘hah’ he sighed inwardly

With all things solved, Erika look at the world with renewed determination. She might lose her eyes, but it seems the world is as just beautiful as before

But, there is something missing.

She still smiles, nonetheless

Because the world had changed. Then she walked toward the other side of the island. And behind her Antonius follows with Void on his back

The Great Oracle once again would step to the world stage!

This is one long chapter that had to be cut into four chapters. In this chapter as you can see, another secret has been revealed. And right now, the only one that knows this secret is Erika.

Azief in the other timeline is also one of the chess players. Foreshadowing complete. Hope you enjoy the story as we raced to the matter of the Divine Throne battle.

If you like the story, leave some good reviews and get the word out for me. All I could do to repay you all is only to keep writing as much as I could.

And my fingers is healing nicely. But I still did not want to put too much strain on it so I no longer write five thousand word a day.

Anyway, cheer me up with some gifts. And see you again in the next chapter.
