Lord Shadow

Chapter 1590 Ancient War

The Etherna race do not manipulate the source of power. They are the source of power. Asargan. Borgan. And many others.

Azief had understood it when he researched more and more about the Etherna. In The Three Thousand Worlds, they are called Dao. In some other worlds, they are called Mana.

In some other worlds, they are called the laws of the world.

What they are now in Azief present timeline…they are the path, they are the road, they are everything and nothing.

But in this memory, in this current timeline that is being shown to him, they are beings

Heavenly Beings. And maybe there is wisdom in their destruction. For a Heaven that has emotion…..is a terrible Heaven.

Some have debated on this. Should the Heaven be ruthless and treats everything equally? Or should it have compassion and cast luck to those below it? 𝔬𝑣𝓛xt.𝒸𝗈𝗆

This kind of debate have created wars in many magical civilizations.

Azief think of all of this in only a few second but then he focused back his thought on the battle that is about to unfold.

Azief look at a great war that is being fought among the stars

In this epic celestial battlefield, the titanic Etherna race is clashing with a united force of beings from countless star systems.

“After all, they alone probably could not fight against the Etherna race’ Azief thought to himself

He sees with his own eyes, planets is being crushed like fragile glass underfoot, and the vacuum of space itself screamed as destructive forces raged.

Azief eyes is drawn to a pivotal moment.

He watched in awe as a colossal Etherna warrior, the embodiment of divine might, swung a colossal weapon that seemed to reshape the very fabric of space.

“what is that? It looks like a hammer but with spikes. And it could even change form” Azief mutters to himself

The shockwaves from the impact of this Etherna warriors sent ripples of destruction cascading through the stars.

Stars exploded like fireworks on new year’s eve.

In another part of the battlefield, an armada of diverse beings, each representing the pinnacle of their respective civilizations, retaliated with colossal energies strike

Some of them uses titanic cannons and some uses superconductivity weapons that uses kinetic energy and even the destructive energies in the battlefield.

Some tries to use brilliant tactics. But tactics could only help so much when it met a force like this.

Beams of incandescent energy and streams of celestial flames streaked through the void, painting the space with an otherworldly luminescence.

Azief could see worlds being devoured by hungry black holes, their landscapes vanishing into the abyss of spacetime.

The screams of entire races is carried by cosmic winds to the void of nothingness.

The thunderous roar of battleships firing their cataclysmic cannons reverberated through the vacuum, as fleets of star ships tried to hold back the Etherna invaders.

Azief observed this grand spectacle with a mixture of fascination and dread. And then he sighed.

And then he looks at a certain direction

“Any moment now”

Azief had seen this before so he could guess what the memory is going to show him next.

And then there is a light, a lightning flash

And then there came a sound—a sound not unlike the ethereal hymn of a universe tearing apart.

The cosmic symphony that was played in the aftermath of stars and galaxies crumbling to dust created a resplendent backdrop for the scene that is about to unfold

Before Azief lay a remarkable sight: a cosmic road adorned with the shattered remains of stars, each one a radiant beacon in the darkness of space.

This celestial avenue stretched endlessly in both directions, leaving Azief chuckles

“Will is not this powerful yet. If one day he reaches this level…..” Azief did not finish his word

And then there is a sound. Like a sound of a bell.

“A temple” he thought to himself. Will once told him about the Temple and the Savi’krian race and the Destroyer.

This bell come from the temple. But whether it is from the future or the past or the present, it is hard to distinguish.

The tolling of that otherworldly bell continued, reverberating through the astral void, like it was…announcing the significance of the moment.

And then, as the symphony reached a crescendo, a brilliant flash of light cascaded across the universe, eclipsing the inky darkness of space.

In its wake emerged an awe-inspiring sight—a lone figure racing on that celestial track, leaving stardust and the echoes of primordial energies in his wake.

The sprinter’s steps were sure and swift, much like an athlete on a divine track.

Like a running track

Azief is sure that if this is not a memory, that his eyes would not even be able to see this Etherna when he is running.

The memory made him able to see through universes like he is playing a point of view game

The unfolding spectacle is nothing short of miraculous.

It defied the laws of perception and comprehension as Azief consciousness is immersed in a cascade of vivid imagery and emotions.

And that is just by watching this Etherna running

It was as if his very essence had transcended the limitations of time and space.

In this mesmerizing vision that Azief is seeing, the Etherna is a sublime blur of power and speed, tearing through galactic universes and transcending the boundaries of time and space.

It was a sight to behold, for he defied the very laws of physics, running as if the cosmos were his playground.

The Etherna form shimmered with divine radiance as he sprinted through the fabric of existence.

With every stride, the universe itself seemed to part, granting him a divine road on which to accelerate his unstoppable momentum.

The very nature of this path was a reflection of his unparalleled mystique speed, a road forged by his will and speed.

Azief watched as the Etherna did not teleport or take shortcuts; he ran with an indomitable force that sent shockwaves of energy rippling through the cosmos.

His colossal mass and unparalleled acceleration combined to create an unstoppable juggernaut, capable of obliterating entire planets and stars with the sheer magnitude of his passage.

It was as if the universe bowed before the might of the Etherna, making way for his divine journey through the galactic expanse.

The sight was nothing short of awe-inspiring.

This Etherna speed transcended all limits, and with each step he took, the fabric of reality itself unravelled before him, creating a myriad of mystical phenomena across the Omniverse.

His velocity is seemingly boundless.

As he raced through the cosmos, his passage initiated incredible transformations.

Wherever he went, time itself began to regress, turning back the clock on entire regions of existence.

In one moment, thriving civilizations were transported to an earlier age, and in the next, they vanished into the depths of history.

Simultaneously, the Etherna tremendous speed triggered a cataclysmic event in other universes.

Galactic systems suffered the effects of a heat death, stars fading away and planets plunging into eternal darkness as he swept through.

The shockwave of time distortion he left in his wake radiated outward in all directions.

Reality itself is shaken by his presence, resulting in echoes of time, space, and matter being forever altered.

This Etherna is none other than Asargan, the source of energy of Speedster, the Etherna Asargan.

Azief sworn brother Will, also drew the speed energy from Asargan.

What an Etherna, he thought to himself.

Azief notices something else.

This time when he saw Asargan, the details of Asargan running become even more clearer in his mind.

Azief continued to watch, and soon, another prominent Etherna appeared in the memory. It is Reorgan, the Etherna of Oaths.

Reorgan possessed a unique and mystical power to enforce oaths and promises.

When someone made an oath or a promise, Reorgan divine influence ensured that it was binding and held immense power.

As long as one genuinely meant their oath and invoked it, their Will would honour that agreement.

This is the Etherna who settle the powers of oath and made it binding and as long as one means it and promises it, His Will when invoked would honour that agreement.

Azief moves forward as his body floats through these memories. Even though he saw planets and galaxies being destroyed, he was not afraid.

Because even when he saw a star exploding near him, the explosion did not even hurt him

Because all of this has happened in the past. And he is not actually travelling back through time. He is in a memory.

Like a dream.

And as he floats forward, he finally saw one of the Etherna he had seen before and his eyes narrows.

Vorgan, he mutters with a sigh.

This Etherna in particular is now flying around in dark space of the Universe and wherever he flew, he would destroy stars and planets.

And he uses only the breath that he blew from his mouth. When he blew it, cold winters descend and cataclysm wind storm would ravage worlds.

Vorgan is the Etherna of Deceit.

And it is not only the physical wind being blown that made each breath he blows a catastrophe

The blows of his breath affect the mind, affect the heart, bringing calamity of the heart and mind

His breath not only brought destruction to the weak willed it foster distrust among the inhabitant of the planets and the many inhabitable stars of the Suprema Universe.

The great beings that are fighting the Etherna have created all of those great advances in technology turns into an idiot once that wind passes them by as they start killing each other.

Fathers killed their children, mother choke the life out of their babies, sisters killing sister and brothers killing brothers.

It was like a curse but it was also like he amplified the hate and distrust that was already there. It created mistrust. It did not foster but create new hatred and distrust.

It was a scene of madness.
