Chapter 1705: The Grand Path
Azief opens his eyes and he moves his hand. He smiles looking at that person in front of him. Opening his eyes, and seeing her, it is still a surreal experience for him.
“It is not bad to wake up with someone else beside me” he mutters to himself.
There is Katarina, on his arms. Azief look at her face.
And he could not help but think out of the many woman he sees in this world; none make him so…entranced
He just stares at her, looking at her, like he is admiring a piece of art. A masterpiece of art. He comes close and he kisses her forehead.
But then he felt a premonition.
And the smile on his face halted
“They are here already/” he mutters and he sighs
He closes his eyes for a second and in that moment, he activated his Divine Sense.
Azief Divine Sense has evolve after breaking through to Essence Creation level. His Divine Sense could no longer so easily be sensed
Unless he wanted to be sensed, no one could notice that his Divine Sense had sweep through them
His Divine Sense is not only a method of surveillance but now is also a potent method of mental and soul attack
His Divine Sense sweeps the entire palace and then then entire Moscow and then the entire Russia before expanding all over the entire Europe.
And all the while he is doing this, no one had notices that he uses his Divine Sense to scan the entire continent of Europe
He sighed
“I guess I am too optimistic that they would leave me alone” then he shakes his head
That would be pretty irresponsible of me if I said words like that. After all, I was the one that was thinking of the Ten Realm Project”
Azief think of sing this project to solve a lot of the power level problem in the world. He estimated that after this plan is implemented, it would lessen the conflict where a high power leveler cause chaos in the world by attacking weaker realm people.
Before he did it because he wanted to protect the weak. It is not because he is burning with justice like Raymond, it is just that he could empathize with the weak.
Because he has been weak before.
And what other sees as a waste of effort, Azief on the other hand sees the untapped potential of these weak people
Azief himself was weak before he became the strongest person in the world.
Who’s to say that among those weak people, there would not be a second Death Monarch? In the beginning he might worried that there is people that could ruin his reign.
But only when you sat on that lonely throne, overlooking all others, you understand something
How lonely it is to be at the top? At least in this world, Azief has no peers that he could compete with.
There is no rivals.
And because he has his horizon expanded when he meets beings like Azul, the Creator, Ethernas that he believes that humans should cultivate new talents and preserve those who is already walking their path.
Azief shakes his head.
“Now, it is time to meet them” Azief tries to smoothly move his hand slowly. Katarina head is on top of his arms. Katarina seems to be treating it like a pillow.
“umm”
He moves only a little but Katarina notices it and she quickly get up from her sleep.
Unlike Azief Katarina did not need to use her Divine Sense to knows that there is people in front of her Palace
since this area is already filled with her formation and anyone coming here could not escape from her perception
They look at each other
“I thought you were asleep”
“I was” Azief only smile at that answer. And then there is silence between them. And then she said
“They are already waiting for you” Azief nodded.
“I had hoped that I would have more time. Maybe I should froze time. Though I bet Jean would feel angry if I keep messing with Time like this” he chuckles a bit.
“You want anything? I could brew you a coffee. I learn from someone” Katarina ask
Azief got up from the bed and shakes his head
He knows what Katarina is doing. Delaying. If this was any other times, he would not mind going along with it
But this time is different from the last time. There is cause and effect between the current era and him
He shape this era, benefitted from it and so the cause and effect is huge. The calamity and the fortune of this world is tied tightly with him
Because he was the one that causes the Multiversal Convergence, causes the worlds to shift places, to open breaches to other worlds, to bring people, beings and monsters from other worlds to this world
And with it comes calamity.
The Multiversal Convergence is like this Earth shining a shining bright lantern on a dark forest
filled with hunters
Until they met with one another, who is the prey and who is the hunter could not be determined.
But what Azief did is basically putting a target on their world.
Those who did not or could not breach this world might have seen signs or gain a reading about this world from their magic or technology and since this Earth announces itself, those outside forces would also try to enter this world
But it not all doom and gloom.
What he did also input new energies and life into this Earth. It assimilates those energies and the effect is that the current generation could break through more easily.
These are all cause and effect.
These are cause and effect that Azief had sown.
Someday, he have to reap it.
It is time to settle these cause and effect.
Before, Azief did not think too much about this. But since he could see a bit of destiny and fate, of cause and effect, he knows that there is an invisible force that leads you to the predestined destiny and fate
And since Azief wanted to change his fate, wanted to change his destiny, he must first start by mastering and controlling his own cause and effect.
“I have delayed them long enough. It is time to return to the real world” And the moment he
said this, it was like a switch was turned on and that domineering aura of an overlord returns
to him
Katarina look at him and she sigh.
Katarina did not like this part of Azief.
But as the years go by, as she herself was burdened with the same kind of responsibility that Azief had been subjected to, she understand him
Not all of it
But enough.
There is many faces to someone. Azief has many faces. But he does try to be honest with each
face he wore.
The face he wore when he is with her is him. The face that he shows to the world as Death
Monarch is also honest.
He treats people differently according to their relations to him. Katarina was about to say something to him, but she also stop herself. And she chuckles to herself
“So, this is why”
Azief also does this a lot with her.
Things he wanted to say but never say it to her.
And now, she understood.
Because the things she wanted to say is unnecessary.
It would not change a thing.
Because she knows him too well.
And because he also knows her well so he always had to stop himself.
Because saying something will not change anything. And as long as that decision, that choice
didn’t make a big difference, why say it?
Maybe other people will have different thoughts on this matter and how to deal with it but for
them, this is the way they deal with it.
That is their way. Like an unspoken rule that they agreed upon each other
Talk about the important stuff, and don’t sweat over the small stuff.
He was about to go out but then he halted. Azief takes a breath, like he was mustering his
courage and then said
“Your brother…how do you intend to deal with it?” Hearing this question Katarina was shocked for a second but then she knew.
This is not the Death Monarch that is his boyfriend.
This is Death Monarch, ruler of Pandemonium that is asking her.
Asking her not as his woman but as the Grand Chancellor of the Republic.
“What do you suggest?”
Azief sighed
“I know you love your brother. I do not share the same enthusiasm but for you….” He did not
finish his sword but then he added
“Boris actions has gained him many enemies. I could not say much. He did it…. in a way
because of you. But, you’re here now. You’re alive. He does not need to be too extreme in
things”
Sighing, Azief added
“Let him forgive some people and don’t make so many enemies. Maybe, retire from the
Senate. Focus on improving his realm of power. Maybe, if he does that, he could find his own
Grand Path”
Azief met many heroes and villains on Earth
And he met people that have their own road. It is not something he could describe. You would
just know Whether in the conviction of their will, or the honesty of their desire, those who walk their own path, have something unique to them.
And so, Azie could sense them. It felt like a friend who is walking toward the same
destination.
They might walk different roads, some of them may be smooth, some of them have twist and
turns but as long as they walk toward the same destination, there is this feeling of
camaraderie between them that is unspoken.
Azief felt this way when he met Jean. There is something about him, just like when he met
Oreki and Hikigaya.
They have a certain conviction, a certain faith in themselves and in the path that they are
walking on
An obsession that they could not really let go and this obsession fuels their souls. Boris
doesn’t have that.
A pursuit of material world, a pursuit of something temporary. In front of time, everything
would turn to dust
Living a thousand years, living ten thousand years, living a million years is not immortality. It
is just long lived.
To be Immortal is to make worlds and destroy worlds.
To change laws of time and space.
To wield this power freely.
