Lord Shadow

Nearby stars that is illuminated upon by this blue light slowly die off. Withering like time was accelerated for them.

Their nuclear fuel was absorbed by the blue light.

Some of them expand and exhausted their fuel. 

Then they collapse and the outer layer explodes. Such a powerful explosion of supernovae usually would affect the other nearby star.

But as it was illuminated by this blue light, all of the effect of the explosion and the energy that is coming out from it was absorbed by the blue sun which is Azief

If some spaceship could see this scene, they might have mistaken Azief figure to be a Sun that emits blue light

Planets also were devoured by the blue sun. Like it is some kind of death ray

As the shine of that blue light expanded, more and more dead planet and stars exploded, its energy flows to Azief. 

There is now like some kind of cosmic channels from Azief back and front. 

In front of him, he is absorbing the impure energy in the black hole. Behind him, is the energy of stars and planets. 

And slowly there is a spherical force field that is forming around Azief floating figure. 

And the energy that he is emanating is pulsing and with each pulse, the space shakes and cracks. 

The ringing sound that comes from space and the black hole is even drowned by the sound of this pulsing

The more Azief body absorbs the power, the dimmer the light became. This is the impurities that is slowly covering his pure energy.

Azief of course did not realize this at this moment as he is still in his deeper consciousness, like he is in some kind of trance.

He is still seeking his path in his deeper consciousness. 

Inside that deeper consciousness, Azief had gone through a few thousands orbs but none of the path inside the orb is something that he wanted.

Then as he looks again, there, in the distance, he saw a blue orb. 

It is small, and it is the farthest. 

But the moment he saw it, Azief felt something. Like it was calling to him. The whisper is faint, but it is there.

He desires it and in a blink of a moment he appears in front t of that blue orb. 

He slowly approached the blue orb and he saw inside that blue orb, a blue flame. It almost looks like the flame is about to die out

‘Resilient’ That is what he thought to himself

He then touches the Orb and his eyes shines blue light that shoots out from his eyes. His entire body is suddenly filled with symbols that seems to be etched into his skin

It is nothing like the hieroglyphic of Ra Palace, or the characters of the Jade Empire or the runic alphabets of the Asgardians.

Instead, it is an alphabet that contains the meaning of everything that is contained in the Omniverse.

Azief eyes is still shining blue, illuminating all the orbs and dye it into blue. There is whispers in his ears and he could see silhouettes. 

The whisper is undecipherable. 

But the meaning seems to carve itself onto his heart. 

It is something that his soul could understand. 

A calling to arms. Like a war cry. As this cry enter his ears, his eyes seems to see a vast Universe opened up in front of him

‘What is this?’ he thought to himself. The silhouettes he sees before seems to become even more solid.

Titanic beings seems to appear in front of Azief. Right now, it was like Azief was somewhere else.

He did not feel that this place is the place where he was at before. He could feel the energy of creation and destruction in abundance like it is limitless.

Azief understood in this moment where he is now. 

A memory. A legacy, he thought to himself.

The legacy of Etherna.

There were tens of thousands of titanic beings that would put planets and stars to shame. They seem to be fighting some invincible force.

There were some Ethernian that Azief recognize.

Sitting cross legged on top of a planet is Borgan. The moment he saw that Etherna, information streams inside his mind

Information about Borgan seems to enter his head and it was like he got the full profile of Borgan. Borgan is also participating in the war. But not with fighting.

Behind her there is strings. This string seems to tangle with each other. Her eyes are white. It reminded him of the eyes of the Great Oracle Erika.

And he unconsciously moves his hand toward his left eye. 

There seems to be some kind of resonance between his eyes and Borgan. Like his eye is happy to be so close to the source of its creation. 

Azief tries to move but he could not. It is like he is seeing a movie. Besides Borgan, there is another Etherna.

Azief glance at this Etherna and the information streams again into his mind.

‘Qwalgan’ Azief muttered. The Etherna of Time and also the source of all the timelines.

This is the Etherna of Time, the very same Etherna that Jean drew his force from. 

‘This is weird’ he thought to himself.

Legions of gigantic beings fill the area and it almost seems crowded yet Azief could recognize and see some Etherna as clear as day. It was like his eyes guided him there.

Azief think about it for a second and a hypothesis formed in his mind.

‘Guided by destiny and fate, connected by the same string’ Azief mutters to himself

By now, he is quite sure, that if anyone else is trying to breakthrough to Essence Creation, they would never have experienced things like he did

Because, one has to accept the legacy of the Ethernas to see this. It was like his move had been predicted. And his mind once again remembers Borgan

‘An Etherna that could see the future. How far of the future did she sees?’ he thought to himself.

Every Etherna all glow with blue aura. 

They have blue skin, tough and could withstand supernova explosion that would collapse space all around them. 

It is hard to see all of their moves. Every Etherna seems to have their own abilities and Laws that they control as they fought this invincible force.

They are charging toward some kind of Dark Being 

The eyes of Etherna is pale white blue and blast of anti-matter energy was shooting out form their eyes, destroying planets and distorts the Laws of the Universe.

An entire galaxy is being bombarded by tens of thousands of supernova explosion caused by the explosion of planets.

Space is being rolled back up because of the force and impacts of so many explosions in space. Storms of fiery and hot cosmic flames seems to engulf a few hundred universes.

This kind of war and the scale of this battle exceed anything that Azief had ever seen. It makes the war on Earth to be like kids playing make believe war.

This is the war of beings that existed even before Time was created. Their power seems to be unlimited and the destruction that they unleashed is cataclysmic.

It travels million and even trillions of light years away. A force of a punch travels millions of light years away, affecting a distant Universe and shatter everything in its paths.

Time and Space seems to be subverted. 

The Laws of Element went into disarray. 

All kinds of matters seem to dissolve and evolve, melting and fusing, creating new elements out of nowhere 

New matters and new element were forged in this battle. 

Gaseous mist seems to materialize because of the melting pot of all kinds of Laws being used and they were merging with each other to borne new laws and new concepts.

It is like watching the birth of all kinds of Laws that would one day make up most of the Laws of the Omniverse.

It was destructive. 

Eye opening……and beautiful. Terrifying, yes…. but beautiful all the same. Cosmic element was born anew out of the destruction. 

Creation and destruction seems to be hand in hand with each other. Azief focus his mind. He did not know why he suddenly were able to see this vision.

His best guess was that when he took the orb, his legacy activated. 

Whatever the reason he was able to see this vision, Azief had confirmed that the destruction did not affect him

It is like he is only a spectator. 

He could not affect what happens and what happens could not affect him. 

Since that is the case, he would see and he would observe.

There is a lot of things one could learn just by seeing and observing carefully. 

Azief once saw such vision before. But that vision is about the destruction of a Universe and the creation of the Supremacy Stairway.

At that time, Azief was creating his Soul Law and he managed to access the memory of one of the soul under him and saw the destruction of the Supreme Dimension and the creation of the Supremacy Stairway

This vision that he is now seeing is not about the creation or destruction of a Universe. It is about a war.

And Azief had a feeling that he had read about this war before.

‘The Purge of the Etherna’ he mutters to himself
