Lord Shadow

Azief look at Amara from a distance. She is floating there and her eyes is trained on the magic circle. 

She did not do anything, just floats there in the sky. 

But no one could see her. Not the Demon Army that is rushing to the capital city, nor the scouts on the mountains 

It is not like Amara is floating in a closed space. 

She is literally floating in an open space. But Azief knew the reason why no one could see her.

It is simply because she controls the Laws of this world. To make herself invisible is probably the easiest thing for her. 

And the reason why she did not do anything is possibly because she is simply waiting. Waiting for the right moment

'True, if Amara knows what is about to happen and she had calculated it this far…...then timing is important' he thought to himself. 

Right now, if Azief calculation is right Arial is being chased by the demon army and is probably going to the library right now

Amara is waiting. 

Waiting for Arial to activate the spell. 

Then, Azief could see that on the other side of the magic circle an undulation of powerful ripples of invisible energy was unleashed to the surroundings and Azief frowned.

This kind of feeling, the feeling of this energy that is changings the particles of things is the feeling of Time and Space magic being used. 

and it was at this time he saw Amara flick one of her fingers and from that finger an orb the size of a grain of sand fell down onto the magic circle

And like some kind of a magical water, the entire magic circle glows with magic. 

This is a scene that Arial could not see. 

Azief look up at the sky and he saw formations of words, ancient words that spiraling and layering each other to create a large formation that not only covers the entire capital city, it began to covers the entire continent. 

Azief did not spread out his Divine Sense to the other continents but he could guess that right now, the formation also covers the entire world.

  Then he saw how the sun and moon seems to alternate and then distorts

'Time is going backward' Azief tries to see Arial figure in that library using his Divine Sense but he found out at this moment, that his Divine Sense is on the fritz. 

It was like his Divine Sense had turned into waves that is being deflected, frazzled and cut off. 

'So, right now even my Divine Sense could not pass through the interference'

This does not feel good. He was so used using the Divine Sense, that everything he did is started with his using Divine Sense

And now suddenly to be unable to use it, it is like one of his most important senses is being cut off

The only reason why his Divine Sense would act like this is because the extreme distortion of space, time and the fabric of reality itself distorting causing all kinds of interference. 

He then looks back at Amara in the distance. 

Amara helped Arial. And Arial doesn't even know it. Or maybe, by the time of that final battle, he did know.

Azief is ready to follow Arial to the other timeline. But, then his heart dropped. He realized something is not quite right. 

There is no notification that is popping out in front of his face.

But right now, in front of his eyes, things are disintegrating. 

Suddenly the translucent state he is in is broken. 

And then at the same moment, he could feel everything clearly around him. From the sand on the ground, the grass that sways, to the wind that blows.

'Shit' Azief curses as he knows that something wrong had happened. 

This is because he could feel something very different. He could feel the time-flow and the ebbs and waves of the space fluctuation around him

And he is quite sure that he is not protected behind layers of small dimension or a barriers of multidimensional barriers.

Instead, what he felt was the eye of the Heavenly Will of this world trained upon him. The force of this planet seems to be surging feeling his existence.

This is all thing that he could sense but could not see. 

And then Amara apparition that was standing in the distance suddenly looked at him

She seems puzzled even as the disintegration of the world is happening all around her, she did not seem to notice it.

Or to be more accurate, she was more curious of him. She is so curious of him, that she did not seem to care about the disintegration of the world.

But Azief could understand. 

After all, Amara seems to plan for Arial to return back to the past. 

That is the only way to explain why a wind of gust knock off a book and why Amara is here, helping injecting some magic to the magic circle so that it could be activated. 

The fact that the whole world seems to be disintegrating right now shows that Arial had done it. 

But right now, Azief is the one that is most puzzled right now.

'What is happening to me right now?' One minute he had the helmet on his head. 

And then suddenly as Arial is done activating the magic circle, it was like the connection between him and the helmet suddenly was cut off.

No' Azief thought to himself

'That is not the feeling of it being cut off'

'It is the feeling like it was never there in the beginning' In that one moment countless possibilities went past his mind. 

There is also the possibility of the Orvanian plotting and scheming against him.

But, he rejected that very quickly. If Orvanian really wanted to kill him, they do not have to go through this much hoops. 

It is not easy to kill him but it was not like it was impossible. 

There is also the possibility that the helmet had malfunctioned. But even if it is malfunctioned he should be either ejected or return back to that room.

After all, even in the case of him accidentally breaking through the barrier of the world that he visited, there should still be the mirror dimension between him and the real world of the projection and he could easily be teleported back. 

He read the manual of the helmet extensively before he put it on. 

All of this possibilities run though his mind in that one moment where he found out that…. that he is now really at Earth X

This is not a projection. This is not some scene. He suddenly had found himself really in the location where he is at right now.

He could feel it the moment he went out from his translucent state

Amara look straight at his eyes and then she asks

'Who are you?' she said as she tilted her head. Her eyes shine golden and it seems that she is scanning him, trying to figures out his origin.

By now, Azief face turns serious. The fact that Amara saw him and talk to him prove all his conjecture.

And then he became serious. Because this Amara did not know who he is. In the future, Amara came to him and gives him a task to help Arial.

It came in the form of a quest from the system. That is how he met Arial and he even follows Arial in the final battle.

But in this current time, Amara did not know who he is.

And then her face turns wrathful

'Outsiders from Outworld!' she said. There is a trace of anger in her voice. 

At the same time, Azief also notices that the world is disintegrating. It is not destroyed. It is like the particles is regressing.

The magic circle that is glowing all over the capital city is burning with a white light that is filling the whole world. 

The magic circle beneath the magic circle is also lighted up. 

'Such powerful magic!' Azief thought in his mind. On the ground, light shines to pierce the skies. If the area is night right now, it would pierce the darkness and drive away the dark. 

The powerful magic that is unleashed from the magic circle created vortex of energy all over the magic circle. 

It is not only the ground that is reacting. 

The sky split open above the capital city, the light sweeps all the area and the army that was waiting outside the capital city was also swept away by that light.

In just one second, tens of thousands of Demon soldiers were wiped out. 

But they were not wiped out by a force of destruction but by the force of time, their souls seem to be intact.

Azief did not know why he felt that way but he trusted his instinct. The Demon soldier did not die but exist in another form.

Azief reckoned this has something to do with the time magic that Arial had just activated. 

His eyes are not enough to see all things but he could easily see the phenomenon that happens on Earth and Heaven and everything in between

Even in that moment, Azief could still see the heavenly phenomena while at the same time readying himself against Amara

And then the sky splits open and Azief swore he could listen to the sound of the cracking of the Wall of this Universe.

And he doesn't think he is wrong.
