Chapter 1787: Vision of Troubled Future

The room went silent for a while and Danny seems to be looking at him like he is trying to figure out something

He paused for a second for that dramatic effect and then continues

“How many?” Danny ask again

“Like I said, many”

However, Danny is not entirely convinced. But before he could say anything, William quickly once again address the people in the room

“And that is why I am confident that you would be fine even if you steal all of the resources in that room and break out the Grand Researcher” Then William come close to Danny ears and whispers a few words into his ears and his face changed.

He taps his fingers on the table and he closes his eyes, thinking.

And then after a few second, he nodded

“If it’s that person, then it is possible.” He nodded for a second like he is liking the idea more and more

And then a sly smile appears on his face

“I can do it. As long as you prepared everything that my crew needed” William just nodded.

“Discuss away. Anything you need would be given to you. I guarantee it” Danny nodded with a solemn look

Seeing this, William knows the hard part is over

“I will be going out for a while” William geos out of the main hall in the submarine and goes to his private deck and then he sighed

“I just need to make sure thing goes according to plan. But this is harder than just talking about it”

William sighed.

And the submarine keep moving forward.

And it is moving toward Pandemonium!

…..

There is a man in black robe walking along the busy Roman roads of the city. The city itself is a bit like Rome.

This is one of the cities in Pandemonium. Every city is different from others. It depends on the city lords.

Some have steampunk design; others have a more neo modernism take and some prefer this kind of aesthetic.

Most prefer something familiar and beautiful. Beauty unlike some people might argue is mostly objective

Some things remains beautiful even after tens of thousands of years. What is beautiful then, is still beautiful now.

Beauty standards are made by people but beauty in its most natural form would always remain a beauty

If there is one theme that is lacking it would be the modern theme cardboard houses. It bis boring and bland.

But this city has a template like the ancient Romans.

There is even a large bathhouse in the distance that is being frequented by everyone. There is market and stalls and they sell all kinds of things.

However, even though the design of the city is like an ancient Roman city, does not mean the people in this city wears toga and Roman clothes.

Some people wears flamboyant attire and some wears down to earth fashion

However, there is more people that dressed the way like Azief is dressing right now. A black robe, with a hood that gives a bit of shadow so that people could not see his face clearly.

Most people do not like their identity get known and nothing is suspicious about Azief right

now.

Unless there is a crime, most people did not find it weird to see someone like this walking the road. If this was before the Fall, wearing a black robe, walking the way he is, hiding his face with magic, he would surely look very suspicious.

Azief look around him for a moment and there is a smile on his face.

“I am back” he mutters to himself with a smile.

“The air feels a little different, the energy a bit dense” he could not help but marvel at the change of the world

Twenty years of seclusion.

Twenty years in the past would have seemed long.

But now, twenty years to him feels like a few moments, like the time it would take for the eyelid to open and close.

If he did not come out of seclusion and sometimes walk the mortal world, he might even become unattached to this world

He used to wonder how could those beings meditate and seclude themselves for thousands and tens of thousands of years without going crazy?

And he found out now.

Time…. for them is different for mortal.

What would ten thousand lifetime of a mortal is but a small amount of time for immortal beings.

So, how could he not be surprised now that he look at the world and everything seems to changed but him

Then he look down again and walk forward. Sometimes, he would stop at a stall and look at the wares on the stall. All along the way, he could not feel that the people here is afraid of the

war that is brewing.

Instead, it almost feel like it is just another day.

Azief has arrived at Pandemonium and he has a plan.

“It’s quite a change” he thought to himself. In the past he would not call himself a scheming

person.

But as he ages, as he experiences more things in his life, as he is caught in more schemes and plot, he himself become more scheming.

He thinks before he made a decision.

In the past he could be considered passionate. A little bit full of bravado, a little bit of

arrogance and a hint of pride.

He could fight a world power just to save someone and he did not mind burning the world for

one person.

But now…. he is not the man when he started this journey. And he should not be such a person.

If you refuse to learn, then you would be schooled.

And Azief had learned. It is not that he is no longer passionate, it is just that passion is

tempered by his mind.

He still has that pride and arrogance on that pride and arrogance is a little more subdued which makes his use of power become elegant

He had changed.

And now he has his own scheme. Since the moment he saw the future, he had decided that he

would wake up after twenty years to solve a few things.

And plant a seed. Or maybe, he would cut the seed.

In these twenty years, he did not only studied the Etherna knowledge, he also tries to make

sense of the future he had saw with Will.

And he had some clues of what happened to him.

Combined with some of the secret knowledge of the Etherna about the world they live in, Azief felt like he is close to the truth of what had happened to him in that future.

He did not yet had full confirmation.

For that he needs to find Loki to…. confirm something. He believes that if there is someone

that knows the full story it would be none other than Loki.

He is from the future. Or…it might be from a Deleted Future.

Azief has his own speculation about this time.

As for why he is in Pandemonium, when he was coming out from his Crystal Palace, his plan is

quite simple. He just needed to go back to Pandemonium, shows his face and all the forces in Pandemonium would back down.

The avatar of the Crystal Palace would be returned back to the Crystal Palace and then he simply needs to reaffirm the alliance he had with Hikigaya, Oreki and Raymond and then he need to settle a few things like Loki and the Untainted Land problems

Yes, even though Azief did not have any information about what is happening in the Untainted Land he knew there is a problem there.

He knew Loki is there with his Ghost Ship. He would bring news that would shake the entire Sёarch* The Nôvel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

world

The Untainted Land cut off contact, established their own Heavenly Will and have a nuclear

option.

It is amazing enough that they could established a different Heavenly Will inside that dome like continent but they even created a nuclear option so that no world powers would dare to cut off the energy from the outside to the inside.

Some people might not understand why the people of the Untainted Land would suddenly wanted to cut off contact from the outside world.

But they forget. To the people of Earth, only twenty years had passed.

To the people of the Untainted Land, the years would eb around two hundred forty years give

or take.

They now have their own culture and their own kingdoms, empires and factions and these factions and powers are as complicated as politics of the Outside World.

That is the matter of the Untainted Land.

Azief did not care that much.

But the other world powers would care about it. Because they crave the powerful men of the

Untainted Land.

Azief did not care about it because regardless of how strong they are, their limit would still be

Disk Formation.

Even if they manage to break the restriction, at most they would reach Divine Comprehension

leveler in the Untainted Land.

But if there is such a person who break the law that he had established for the Untainted Land then what will happen is that the protection dome that covers the entire Untainted Land would be destroyed, time and space of that isolated land would once again merge with Earth

Which means Untainted Land would be destroyed.
