Lord Shadow

The raven on his shoulders flew away from him as the raven fly around inside the dome like it is playing around. 

The two serpent that lied around his feet also slithers around the dome, hissing dangerously.

The process of changing the Laws is as instant as the moment he finished clicking his finger. The moment that the sound of the click of his finger ended, the matter had ended.

The dome is separated from the planes of reality of Earth Prime. It is a bit like the mirror dimension created by Lee Sangmin but only more secure and more safe.

Yewa Hafar was shocked for a second before he regains back his calm.

Even though the surrounding area is still the same Yewa Hafar knows that the area that was covered by the protective dome that Loki had created is separated from Earth Prime reality and Laws

It is only then that the sound of the Wheel no longer affects him. 

But the pain lingers in his entire being and it is not going away as quickly as he hoped. 

‘Fuck. I should really repair this weakness of mine’ Yewa Hafar cursed and Loki heard it and he just simply raised his eyebrows

‘You could repair your weakness?’

Yewa Hafar only smirks and Loki did not ask further. Yewa Hafar took a scan of his body using his Divine Sense.

Most of the physical wound that had been inflicted on him was healed when Loki had created the dome

There is no visible wound on his body but only he who had experienced it knew the kind of scar and hidden danger that melody had left him with in his soul. 

For people of his level, there is nothing more dangerous than an attack toward the soul

And Grand Supremacy Azul Wheel of Rebirth and Reincarnation is one of the strongest item in the Omniverse in inflicting soul attack.

He then slowly gets up from his kneeling position and look at Loki. He did not understand why Loki help him out

He snorted and Loki ignores him as he seems particularly interested in the Wheel of Reincarnation and Rebirth that Azief had summoned.

‘You miss an opportunity to kill me’ Yewa Hafar casually said as he dusts off the dirt on his knees and calming himself down 

Loki only smiles and said

‘What would be the use of that?’ he chuckles and then he continues saying

‘I could kill you. But you would not actually die. You might even possess another humans or maybe a beast next time and it would actually make my job harder in keeping an eye on you.’

Yewa Hafar smiles. 

‘It seems you know a lot more about me than before, Trickster.’ Loki only smiles as he answered

‘I do try to update my information on my enemies. It usually proves very useful for me’ Loki simply said

They both seems to be testing each other, both trying to pry each other of secrets. After all, this is just the prelude. 

the Time Crisis had always been meant as a prelude to the big event that would happen later. The Sovereign War, The World War Event, the Yrinia Attack and many others more events that would make what happens today pale in comparison.

They are still playing a high staked chess game with each other and they did not even yet uses all of their chess pieces.

Yewa Hafar only smiles as he tries to hide the pain that is wrecking his body right now. Loki simply not pay attention to him. 

The wind blows and their hair both swayed in the wind. 

Loki was pretty calm and he appeared not to care that much about Yewa Hafar condition.

But just appearing to be so, did not mean that it is the true situations. For someone as cautious as Loki, there is no such thing as being lax when he is this close to his enemies.

They were standing only three meters apart. 

If one of them wanted to attack each other, this range is too short for them. 

In this range of attack, whoever made the first move could strike a killing move. But none of them seems eager to kill each other off

Probably because they both truly did not want to kill each other. Of course, it is not because they are old acquaintances.

Yewa Hafar had his considerations and Loki had his consideration.

That is why they only look at each other and did not do anything else. Loki also appeared here because he wanted to confirm something

And this is actually the best opportunity for him to appear. At this time most of the powerhouse of the world is preoccupied with something else which could limit his exposure

The Will of the World is also not paying attention to him because it is being used by Azief right now. 

Though, this is probably the last time he could go on and about openly like this. Because of that he wanted to maximize the use of his time now that he is out

Considering the rate that Azief is growing it would not take much time for him to reach Half Sovereign. 

The moment he reaches that level; Loki is not sure he could hide his presence if he come out again from his secret place.

Because even though he possesses Sovereign like power, truth is, he is not a Sovereign. 

This is only Willpower of the Sovereign. Because even though he was transported to the past, his memories, at least the part where he become Sovereign still stays with him.

The memories are the memories of his perseverance, his experience and all of that experience had shaped his unwavering Willpower 

It is by using that he could hide without worry

Though because of the limitation of his body, he did not possess the many abilities of a Sovereign but in terms of powers, his Willpower is enough to calm many waves in the world if he wanted to 

But if Azief reached Half Sovereign, he would be a Half Sovereign with Half Sovereign prowess and Willpower of a Half Sovereign. 

Even Loki could not easily escape from a Divine Sense of half Sovereign even with his Willpower form.

As such, he came out to confirm something. And the moment he came and saw Yewa Hafar he confirms it.

Though, he did expect to get lucky and found out the pawn that Yewa Hafar is using. Who knows maybe that pawn is always beside Yewa Hafar.

But there is no such luck.

Thinking once again about Yewa Hafar, Loki knows he would not be that careless. 

The way he communicates with his pawn might be using some kind of telepathic connection or maybe he went into his pawn dream

It is one of the methods one would use to hide communication. Though, in the future, Hirate would create a certain network of telepathic connection which would boost his psionic force

Of course that is the matter of the future and it might not even happen in this timeline considering that many things had already changed from the plot 

But seeing, Yewa Hafar kneeling on the ground and in pain does bring joy to his heart, so the trip is not entirely wasted

Loki thought of Yewa Hafar face before and again he releases a slight chuckle.

Up above the sky is splitting. Down below, the earth is trembling. And Loki is looking at all of with indifference.
