Lord Shadow

Chapter 738: A bow should be used to shoot arrows (1)



Somewhere near the North Pacific Ocean

The horns of war were blown and the orders of the Great Powers shakes the world and fill the world with uncertainty

While the whole world was still reeling from the new of the great powers attack on the Crime Alliance Death Monarch went to England to meet the Oracle.

This meeting is a secret that nobody knows and nobody expected. Other than a few people, this matter would never be understood.

Why would Death Monarch seek the Oracle? This kind of question had never entered the minds of the Great Powers.

In their mind, they figure that Death Monarch return would be filled with the task of stabilizing any force that shows any desire to rebel.

But the great Power underestimate the influence of Death Monarch in Pandemonium. The matter of Pandemonium is complicated. There are a few factions that is vying for power and control inside it. 

But if there is one thing that united these factions and if there is one thing that these factions feared the most it would always be that person clad in black robe.

They fear him, respected him and some even loved him. The moment he was there, there is no internal problem.

And while the thoughts of the Great Powers would always go toward the matter of expanding their influence and strengthening their power base, their thought could not be applied to Death Monarch.

The stronger he is, the higher he is. And the higher he climbs, the more he could see. And because of that the sight he sees and the peak that he chases, is not the same.

To the eyes of the world, in that throne room of the Centre Palace, Death Monarch is still sitting on his throne, looking down on the world.

Death Monarch whereabouts had always been obscured since the moment he returns. 

In the past some powerful Diviners could still have an estimate approximation of where he was using their divination abilities

And even then it was hard. Some Diviners in the past tried to divine the whereabouts of such a powerful figure and coughed up blood and his Orb cracked.

But, at least they could still have some response. Even Boris has use a few Diviners sometimes to ascertain whether Death Monarch is on Earth or not.

When he fought the Heavens and win, the Diviner found it even harder to divine the location.

When a Diviner would try, they would be obscured by layers of fog that they could hardly see him

But, there would still be reaction somewhat. But this time when Death Monarch arrive with that sword back on Earth, even though everyone knows he was at Pandemonium a few days ago, even if the Diviner did any divination they would find no result.

It was like he didn’t exist. 

Everything is calm and there is no reaction. Even if they did the divination in front of that person, they probably would not sense anything.

This is all because Death Monarch had synchronized with the laws. And because of that any secrets about him is obscured. It is the same reason that even though he had ripped the concealment formation on the Stonehenge, no one notices it. 

When he leaves, probably only then that the world would notice that the Stonehenge was actually covered by traces of formation.

And only then they would find out where the Oracle had been hiding all of these years. Probably only the Oracle could determine the whereabouts of such figure. 

The Diviner ability and the Oracle ability is a bit different but some of their abilities overlaps. Yet, there is a difference.

In one day, there seems to be a lot of thing happening all at the same thing

Some of them is known to the world. Some of them are done in secrets. 

The World Power attacked the Crime Alliance to cover their faces. And Death Monarch met with the Oracle to confirm some things.

And while the world in chaos, as the seven seas of the world is full of powerful fleet of ships and the sky filled with fighter jets that is heading to the bases of the Crime Alliance, there on the North Atlantic Ocean, there is a small ship.

It swayed following the waves. Compared to the many large ship on the sea right now, this ship looks small.

Even if the fighter jet flew above it, they would not see it. Even if a ghost ships of the pirate’s sail beside it, no one would see it.

And even if one could see its silhouette, no one would approach it. This ship is special. Even if one come near it one could feel an indescribable energy surrounding it.

And around a few hundred kilometers surrounding it, there is a dense fog. That is why one could not see it. 

Sometimes when the sunlight is strong and the wind blows strong, one could see the silhouette of a ship from the reflection of the light.

One could see the ship but one could not come near it. One always fears the unknown. Especially in such an era of magic and mysteries.

The more unknown a certain thing is, the more it become dangerous

It is dawn. The sun is just about to go up. This ship is none other than the ship of bones belonging to the Trickster.

Like Death Monarch, the world also could not divine the whereabouts of this famous Trickster that have been scheming against the world.

To the many world powers, Loki had always been a trickster. 

His scheme always produces earth shaking result. 

The ironic thing was that there are many events and happening of the world that is orchestrated by him in the shadows that the world does not even know off. 

Only a few certain people knew that the trickster had his hand on many things. Azief could sense it. The Oracle sees it. And Yewa Hafar is manipulating it.

He had been waiting. He had been waiting yesterday. And today he waist again. But, today, he thinks his wait is at an end. Because he now smiling.

Today, he takes the appearance of a frail young man with green hair and pale face. His body look thin like he did not eat.

His eyes shining with a green glint and his entire body is swirling with green mist. And even though he looks frail, one could see the power bubbling beneath that fragile exterior.
