Lord Shadow

Whether it be a splashing drop of water, a particle that is about to move from one position to another, the gaseous substances that is about to form because of the fire storms that is being extinguished by the sea water, everything halts.

If Azief could have seen this, he probably would have complimented Jean. Because it is not only the physical and tangible things that is affected.

Even the smallest quantum particle is affected somehow. And while it is not entirely perfect, when Jean polished his skill, his mastery over the control of Time would also increase.

But amazingly enough, the area outside of that influence seems to move naturally. The clouds around his head did not move. 

But if you look far enough, the other parts of the world, the clouds move, the water flow, the wind blows.

But not around him

There it is, frozen in time

Time splits into two. The one that move and the one that didn't. Like a part of that area is forever immortalized in a painting.

Jean while he did not seem to be under any pressure, he is actually anxious in his heart. 

The control that is needed to do what he just did, requires perfect control.

If not, he would run the risk of creating another timeline accidentally, which creates another parallel world and might create an unforeseen circumstance 

Jean look toward the tidal wave that is halted by him and then he closes his palm gently like he was grasping the wind.

The tidal wave seems to be distorted in shape which is quiet bizarre considering that the tidal wave is not an elastic or even a solid object in nature

But like a jelly, it changes its shapes 

The area around the tidal wave seems to crack and then iota exploded but the droplets of water did note explode out in a great explosion.

The water did not scatter toward all directions. Instead, when he gently makes a grasping motion, the force of the laws crushed the water of the tidal wave.

the tidal wave dissipated calmly down and time run normally once again. 

Everything become calm. 

This is the least he could do. 

The only affected area during all of this crisis is only around the island. 

Jean laughed bitterly. 

It seems that while Divine Comprehension leveler ability to inflict damage increased even more, their ability to contain the damage that they had done is also incredible. 

The Heavenly Will that had helped Jean before had also receded.

  Jean Time Avatar were all destroyed during the blast and Jean felt the burden on him, feeling the pain of multiple timelines dying gathered on him

For a moment, he just stands there floating in the air, his robe swaying left and right. His eyes turn white and a green aura swirls around him, causing time regression around him

He took his time to heal himself. The cracks on his skin disappears and his aura become stable again.

Then opening his eyes, there is only a vast sea in front of him. There was no trace at all, that they ever existed an island here.

One could see that the energy of that blast is very powerful. 

For a moment, Jean thought was blank. 

Then when he finally could think of something, the first person he thought of was Death Monarch

Jean is quite worried about Death Monarch. He does not know what would happen to the world if Death Monarch were to die. 

Death Monarch did not able to convey his decision regarding the matter of the world distribution event

If he had one more day, only one more day, at least the matter would have been discussed. But because of such an unforeseen circumstance now Death Monarch is no longer on Earth.

Jean could only sigh at this. 

'I hope you succeed' Jean seem too said to the wind.

Jean is one of the people in the world that believes that Azief would come back. He had done a lot of life defying stuff that this confidence just come naturally.

  Then cracking his neck, Jean eye become determined

'Now, that this is settled, it is time to make sure that the world did not fall in chaos in his absence'

And then he looks toward a direction on the south. His gaze travelled millions of miles to see a floating island and mutter to himself 

'And I still, need to remind Raymond to hurry up. If not, he would be left behind. The world need to have some stability' Jean thought to himself. 

Of course, the first place he wanted to go back to is to Paulette. It has been a long five days. 

Every day is nerve wracking experience. 

Of course, because of what he had done both during the Multiversal Convergence and after, he had raised a great prestige among the people of the world

He had saved many people, powerful people and common people alike. 

Other than the Arrayist Sage, many people felt thankful toward Jean as he was the reason why so many people survived the catastrophic damage when Death Monarch Azief and the Demon King from another world fight with each other

But Jean no longer seek prestige. 

When one reaches their level, prestige naturally comes to them. 

All he wanted right now is to go back home, kiss the woman he loves and sleep a few days and woke up to a perfectly cooked pancake

Paulette is not what you would called the elegant feminine woman. 

She had her rough side. She still likes playing with her Sniper and she cleans that gun of hers every few weeks. 

She still tries to follow some of his old general to battle. But the world is not like before where there is always people to fight.

She has calmed down a bit after all of these years.

And she liked vodka. 

She used to hate it. She said it tasted like puke. 

But time changes everyone. 

As for pancakes, something she never had the experience of making, she makes pancakes, because she knew he liked it.

Like he had learnt to play the guitar because she likes it.

Jean is already thinking of having a perfect morning with the perfect woman beside him, and a perfectly cooked pancake.

Maybe asking for the perfectly cooked pancake is a bit much, knowing Paulette cooking skill but at least, he would have his perfect morning with the perfect woman. 

But then he thought about something else and his feeling felt a bit sour. Since he is going back to the Republic, he would see Boris.

And what happened today could not be hidden. At least for a few hours, no one would catch a hold of this news. But, the news would break. 

'Haish' he sighed.

He does not know how to break this story to him. 

He knows how much Boris love his sister. If there is one person that could make Boris leave everything behind, it would be his sister.

'What should I tell him when even I don't know what truly happens?' he thought to himself. 

He did not know what happened to cause such an abnormality to the portal but he is quite sure that it is nothing good.

But he doubts that is the answer that Boris would like to hear. He shakes his head and thought to himself

'I'll cross that bridge when I get to it' 

He then waves his hand and the area of space around him seems to become like a static distorted images and then took a step toward that space and disappeared like he was never there

The sea is calm, the waves laps gently and the sky is clear with sparse clouds like a perfect sunny day.

  It almost looks like nothing had happened here when just a few second ago, a powerful tidal wave had formed that would have sweep across the vast ocean sweeping everything along its path.

It is quite incredible what a Divine Comprehension leveler could do with their power. Incredible and terrifying all at the same time. 

Everything looks fine but with Death Monarch no longer in the world, some people would make their move.

Whether the world power would be able to calm and pacify the world or the dark forces that have long been suppressed by Pandemonium would come out and wreak havoc upon the world and reclaimed their spot in the sun, it is still early to make any guesses.

But….it has started. A curtain of a new era has been raised. 

An era of a great competition. 

The era of the Divine Throne is about to commence!
