Chapter 1811: Three Answer One Advice
That something targeted someone.
Azief just never thought that the target would be Paulette.
Azief thought that if there is something that ancient and primordial, it would targeted him.
He himself after all of the experience he went through, he himself might even though like he is some kind of a main character in a novel or something.
But everyone have adventures and Jean also could be considered a main character if you look at his life.
But the more he thinks about that incident, the more he felt something wrong about it.
It is like someone is playing Etherna chess. A chess game that spans timelines, spans lifetimes, spans all kinds of calculations.
Someone might be scheming in the background
The ring connected him with the fate of the Etherna and ancient things and primordial thing would be attracted to him.
That is the kind of fate and destiny he have the moment he was bonded with something Etherna.
Was it relay targeting Paulette?
Was it targeting Jean?
Or is it a chess move he did not yet see?
A pawn push out to take down the king?
A Queen taken out of the board early?
Who knows?
Unless you know the objective of the other person, a brilliant chess move looks like a lunatic playing checkers on a chess board
He shakes his head like he wanted to shake the thought out of his mind.
“Most problem has already been solved” he mutters as he walk forward slowly climbing the stone staircase
Each step he takes, there is throbbing on his left eye. The more he walk toward his destination, the more pan he felt in the eye
“If this is the kind of pain I felt, I wonder how much pain she felt? Or did she not feel pain? Because she is not restraining it anyway?” Azief right now is on the bottom of the new Mount Parnassus.
And whose abode is it in Mount Parnassus?
The Great Oracle.
There is a temple in Delphi for her, a temple in Athens, in Corinth, in Santorini.
All the major cities that was under the rule of the Seven Warlords has a temple dedicated to her.
Twenty years, and Great Oracle influence has risen to such a powerful level.
He wanted to meet the Oracle.
Just like when he is meeting Loki, he wanted to meet her to ask a question.
Then he reached the tenth step. A wide space. Like a resting place. And there is a woman in grey robe, waiting for him
“Your Excellency, welcome to the Stairway of Parnassus”
“Did Erika sent you?”
“I am but one of her Acolytes. She has sent me to deliver a message”
“What is the message?”
“Don’t use it too much. That is the answer for the first question. For the second question, the Great Oracle said, the answer is that she doesn’t know. And the third answer, is that she could not see it. The fourth is an advice. What you see she also sees. The more you uses it, the stronger the chains”
The Acolyte spoke all of the things she was instructed to say and then wait for Death Monarch to respond.
This young woman is just one of Erika acolytes. But the fact that she was sent out to greet Death Monarch shows how much she is trusted by Erika.
Erika might not feel anything dealing with beings like Death Monarch but that could not be said for other people
This Acolyte also chooses the method of Divining when she chooses her class. She could afford to choose it because she live in a quite peaceful community and someone need to see the future so that that they could navigate the world.
Because of her abilities, her community escape many calamities. She was then scouted by Erika and was summoned to the Temple of Parnassus.
Erika summons her in a dream.
Since learning and being the Acolytes of Erika, she has experience many things and most things does not faze her anymore.
But here, standing just a few feet away from Death Monarch, no matter how calm she pretend herself to be, her heart could not stop beating like it is beating out of her control.
There is a certain coldness here.
It is not the coldness of the mountain or the snow that falls from the sky. It is the kind of coldness that she herself knows too well.
The coldness of Death radiated from Death Monarch.
Just standing three near him, gives her the chill.
Even when she is giving the message, she did not dare look straight at Death Monarch eyes.
The Great oracle had warned her not to look Death Monarch eyes.
There is magic in them and looking at his eyes could break her spirit.
But even without the Great Oracle warning and reminder, who in the world would dare look
Death Monarch in the eye?
Azief look at this young woman and knows that she did not know anything.
She is just relaying what Erika is saying.
Azief look up.
His eyes could penetrate almost everything in this world, yet when he look at the clouds covering the top of the mountain, and even when eh sues his Divine Sense he could not see anything. All he could see is a blurry vision.
She gave him his eyes and in turn, she now not only could see what he sees, she could also shield his vision and gaze from herself.
What a steep price! Azief thought to himself. He also now has the ability of Erika. To see the past, present and future easily.
But he also knows there is a price for all of this.
The fact that he did not get afflicted by the backlash of fate and destiny has more to do with the fact that his cultivation is high enough and probably also because he has the protection of
Borgan.
And now, it benefited Erika. Her ability to see the future has probably risen again if she could eve predict what he wanted to ask.
This is why he doesn’t like these Oracles, Seers and Norns. It is very annoying.
As for the question he wanted to ask. The first question he wanted to ask was about the eyes?
Should he use it?
And Erika answer it.
The second one was about Void.
Not his location.
But his origin.
Was he something that this world naturally formed or is he the creation of fate and destiny as
an antithesis of what is happening to the order of the world.
The third question is about an alien.
Azief is not surprised that there is an alien on Earth. After the Multiversal Convergences, there
is all kinds of aliens that is roaming all over Earth.
Azief also knows of the Weronian warriors in the mine on the Moon and in Mars. But Weronian
is not the only aliens that have entered Earth.
The world power just did not want to make a fuss about it so the alien migration news is
suppressed.
But he had seen in one glimpses of the future of himself fighting one alien.
He sees himself listening to the words of this alien. However, even if he tries to hear what the
alien was talking about, he could not hear it in that vision.
This is not from the vision that he had intentionally saw.
The twenty years of future was something that he seeks.
As for the vision of this alien, it come suddenly.
Sometimes, there were times when even when he has restrained the power of the Eye, the Eye
would show something to him.
He remembers it.
It might be during his ten years of seclusion when he was delving deep into Etherna and the Orvanian history when he felt a twitch on his eyes and before he knows it, he was brought to
that vision.
He knows it is an alien because of how different he is from human.
There is not that much of a difference when he think about it, he at least have humanoid body
He as speaking about something but there is like a barrier and this barrier neutralizes all
sound so he could not hear what that alien was talking about.
What stuck to him was this feeling of emptiness he felt when seeing this vision.
He knew that the feeling of emptiness is not his feeling but the feeling of his future self, like
he is synching up with his future self in that moment.
That alone shows that he has improved in his art of seeing the future that he could even feel
what his own vision of probably future felt.
Because of that he is eager to meet this alien guy and he thought that maybe she knows the
answer to this question.
But it seems even Erika doesn’t know which is actually a problem in itself.
Erika is even better than him when it is about looking at people.
Yes, she is not as accurate as Hirate but she has her own methods. After all, her eyes could not only see through the past and future but also present times.
The fact she answer with she doesn’t know suggests something foul is at play. Unless this aliens hides in the forbidden zones, there must be some big reason why this alien
could not be traced by him and even by Erika.
As for the fourth this is unsolicited advice. He knows more than Erika that there is a price to
pay. Erika might think he has no price to pay. But that is just because she doesn’t understand
the kind of price he had to pay.
But she did reminds him of the chains of fate and destiny
However, there is something that Azief is quite miffed about.
Arrogant! He thought to himself
