Lord Shadow

Hikigaya look at their face and he sighed.

‘Like always, lurking in the background’ he thought to himself. He closes his eyes for a second and his mind could not help but thought of that cheeky Trickster

They did not say anything but Hikigaya laughed

Just because they did not talk doesn’t mean that their body language and face expression did not talk.

He could guess that it was Loki that told him about this matter

And if Loki is the one that told them about this matter, then what is his plans? Is he trying to destroy the plans of his brother? Hikigaya knows the hidden story of Loki.

He knows the one responsible for the Multiversal Convergence is not Loki but Death Monarch and that Speedster.

Loki takes the blame and Hirate helps him. So, he knows that Loki would never do something that would hurt his brother… hurt Death Monarch plan.

Because essentially, Loki is like an infiltrator to the Crime Alliance. This is not official but something understood tacitly by the people involved.

If not for this, Hirate would not believe Loki so much that he would send Raymond to take the trident.

Hirate, Hikigaya, Death Monarch, and Jean met a few days ago and talk about everything.

Some secrets that have ben buried before is brought up so that they all could stand on the same side.

However, he reminded himself of something. Loki……is not someone that is easy to predict.

Before, Hikigaya wanted to take it easy but once Loki is involved, he become a little bit anxious.

‘It seems that I have to move after all’

He sighed and then he waves his hand and a scepter appears in his hand.

It looks a lot like a scepter that mages would use in some fantasy stories.

The moment he did this Martinez, Amaterasu and Mister Moscow suddenly become alert.

They wanted to attack Hikigaya but they are not ready. That is why they did not move forward. But they also did not retreat because they know Hikigaya could not move from the area.

‘Three people with Disk Formation realm. If I could mobilize all my powers, they are not much of a threat. But I could not and they are not normal Disk Formation levelers’

‘Let see whether you could survive this’

Hikigaya throw the scepter to the ground but just before it falls into the ground, it turns into a person. And this person has the same face like Hikigaya

But if there is a difference it is that he did not wear robes like Hikigaya but instead wear tight fitting armor and there is a sword on his hand

He looks more like a warrior then a mage.

Hikigaya on the throne closes his eyes.

‘Warrior class!’ Amaterasu said. Amaterasu is the one that is most adaptable to Hikigaya methods because she once fights him before.

‘He has perfected it’ she thought.  Amaterasu quickly said

‘That is Hikigaya with the class of a Warrior. I don’t know how he does it but I know he could summon an avatar just like him but have different classes and proficiency’

This warrior has the same face but his aura is nothing like the Hikigaya on the throne. And the cultivation of this avatar is between Disk Formation and Divine Comprehension realm.

Amaterasu narrowed her eyes and she believe this is because Hikigaya could not mobilize all of his power.

If he could, it would not be like this

Then this avatar of Hikigaya began jumping down from the third platform to the second.

Then he jumps to the first platform. His hand wielding a sword as he walks toward those three people

Mister Moscow look at this and then ask

‘What should we do now?’

Martinez then added

‘There is no order to engage’

Amaterasu clicked her tongue and spoke

‘Even though there is no order to engage, how could we not engage if Hikigaya attack us’ the other nodded and they are ready to fight.

Mister Moscow raise his hand and his entire body floated a bit above the ground and he slowly floats o the back. Martinez took to the front; his hand seems to crackles with white black aura.

There is something like a circle of energy around his hand. A circle that is black on the inside rings and the white on the outer ring.

Amaterasu on the other hand suddenly stimulated her power and her energy surges toward the sky.

A laser like beam pierces the clouds below and the energy of the world and beyond seems to be stimulated.

The spiral of energy gathering around her pushes everything around her.

‘Today, I will pay back what you have given me!’ Amaterasu shouted and her shout echoes all over the city

Her body slowly glowed and then

BOOOM!

A powerful force exploded from her and it was like a Sun suddenly appeared on the island.

The force washed the entire island continent.

The sound of laugher could be heard. People does not know whether the laughter belongs to Hikigaya or Amaterasu but the laughter lingers as the light illuminated everything around the island continent

This scene shocked everyone all over the world

‘What the hell!’

‘What’s that?’

In the battlefield all over the island continent, everyone could hear the sound of the explosion. It felt like the blast sweeps all over the entire island.𝗈𝒱𝓛xt.𝗇𝓔t

The impact of this power seems powerful enough that it could even shook the entire island continent to crumble.

Those who watched this from their screen also could not help but stumble back.

Some who are using VR-like technology even fall down before realizing that they are not in that battle scene.

There is a tavern in a village. This village is far from any of the world powers influence. They are also distant enough from any other forces.

The area they live in is also dangerous enough that no pirates would sail here willingly.

This place is not in any of the Ten Seas or any of the continents. It is a piece of land that moves.

Sometimes, it moves on the ground and sometimes it swims the ocean.

The Storm Tide is a tortoise-like beast where it is the place where the high-ranking members of the League of Freedom lives

And this place is above a giant beast that have the head of a dragon but a body of a large turtle.

And on this place, there is many villages. And in one of these villages, they are also people looking at the screen watching this battle

These people in these taverns are all Disk Formation levelers. If they went out from this place and goes to the world, they could establish a city or even a country.

But they all gathered here and watch the screen with rapt attention.

They shook their head as they look at Hikigaya fighting the three villains of the dark force.

‘I never knew that the Crime Alliance have such a powerful person’

Many people nodded

One of them said

‘If this war did not happen, the Crime Alliance probably would keep this a secret and quietly grow and expand and when the time is right, they would once again reemerge in the world’

This person scoffed and spoke

‘What a plan! What a scheme! A pity that sometimes circumstances does not always agree with the plan’

‘Hahaha!’ one of them laughed

‘Why do we have to care so much about whether there is a scheme or plot. The fight is exciting enough. Don’t you think!’

He laughed again while drinking a mouthful of beer and then he said

‘Whether they go to war and tear each other to pieces it has nothing to do with us.’

The other people in the tavern all chuckles and nodded.

Even though the battle is shocking and the result of this battle would determine the status quo of the world, to these people who live sin the back of this dragon turtle, they did not care much about the world or what happens to it

Anyway, even if the whole world exploded or destroyed, they could easily just fly out of the planet and goes to another planet.

If that planet is not habitable, they would use their abilities to make it habitable.

While the people in this tavern are laughing and enjoying watching the battle, there is someone who sat on the back of the tavern. His face is covered with a nondescript mask, showing only his eyes.

He is tall and his body is full of muscle. There is a large saber behind his back and he looks like a person with a story.

This person is none other than Fir Her Waz.

‘Humans…. are powerful’ he thought to himself as he looks at the battle on the screen. He closes his eyes and shake his head.

Even though the battle is exciting, it did not attract his attention that much. But he does note that the humans in this world are very powerful

‘And it is all because of the All Source’

Fir Her Waz landed on Earth for months now. And his objective since then is to find the All Source.

But he found no clue until he found this dragon turtle.

He closes his eyes and the memory of her daughter, and her wife come into his mind and for a moment there is a smile on his face

…

Outside the tavern, there is an old man. One of his eyes is hollow and shriveled. He walked with a hunch and he wield a staff for support.

On his shoulders are two ravens

There is a smile on his face and he face his left and spoke

‘Fly and make sure that this place is shielded’

The raven on his left scheduler fly to the sky and circle over the dragon turtle.

He turns to his right and spoke

‘Fly and see the world’ the raven on his right shoulder fly toward the sky and in just a few second this raven has disappeared

But the eye of this old man could see his raven sailing through the clouds with speed that is close to light. This One-eyed old man laughed

‘The Trickster of Midgard. The disciple of my sworn rother. I could not make it easy for you when you are trying to make it hard for me, could I?’ and he chuckles a bit, a trace of mischievousness in his eyes

And as he laughed, he enters the tavern
