Lord Shadow

‘Death Monarch…. maybe this is why you make my sister so tortured’ he thought to himself

In his mind, he never could understand why Azief chose Sofia and not his sister. He did not like the guy. But he did not like feeling that his sister is not good enough for other people.

Katarina is his sister. 

The sister he had protected from the hands of his father. 

He is Katarina brother but sometimes he acted like her father. He gave her the love their father had never given her. 

He protected her like a father

There is nothing he would not do for his sister

If there is one thing Boris wanted for her sister is for her to always be happy and never get hurt. 

It is fine for him to remember all the darkness that they had to endure during their childhood. He wanted to raise her in the sun, so that she could stand under the sun happily.

She is someone who Boris poured all his love to. Because he knows that she did not have that growing up. 

And Katarina love her brother and that love was the reason why she always listens to her brother.

It is not the same like she was following the order of her father which was motivated by fear. 

But, because of this man, she had twice risk her life. And that is something that make Boris feel Azief is a very dangerous man.

Not because his sister loves him. 

But because his sister did not mind dying for him. She should not have to die for anyone. She should live and she should live happily.

That is the only wish he had for his sister. It is just that life had never give anything he ever wanted. Katarina is the stronger one in terms of her powers and abilities.

Even Boris with his horde of monster could not compare to the red sword of his sister. He did not mind being weaker than his sister. 

What he did mind however was the fact that he could not protect Katarina as well as he could.

He could no longer protect his sister as now it is his sister that protects him from his enemies. That is not something that she should do.

The burden that should have been his to bear, was taken by his sister. 

When he asks her to put down the burden, she would always say that it is her repaying the matter of the past.

There is no longer scars and bruises of the past on his body because of the transformation after rising to Disk Formation. 

But, his sister still remembers the dark room, the sound of the slaps and the beatings that he had taken for her.

And she had taken for herself to help him because she felt that she owed him somehow. He should have told her, that she owed him nothing.

That is what a brother do for their sister. 

There is never a right answer. He could not stop her from doing things. But he wishes he could have. He wishes he could stop her from meeting Azief. 

He sighed as he walks to his griffin, showing his intention to leave the area. 

He come close to it and then patting the griffin, he sends a message to the griffin to fly and in just a mere second, Boris left the area, flying in the sky among the clouds, navigating the storms that would sweep the clouds up and shakes the ground below.

Azief is still there on the area. 

‘I should pay a visit to him’ he muttered under his breath

His eyes narrowed as he looks toward a floating island in the distance, the distance between him and that floating island is tens of thousands of miles away

And not to mention there is mountains that would block one sight, the hazy mist on the large vast open seas, the titanic stretch of land that separated him and that island, but in Azief eyes it was like the floating island is in front of him. 

His sight covers the whole island and he could see everything he was there, walking inside the island, looking at each grass on the ground, feeling the air of that island and smell the scent of the ocean.

He smirked as he could see his target. 

There is a lot of people he needs to visit today. 

Because tomorrow, he would like to start trying to breakthrough to Essence Creation. 

Only if he is in Essence Creation he could confidently went inside the portal and went to the Seresian world and try to save Katarina. 

He is anxious. 

But he is not stupid. He did not want to do a suicide mission that would end in Katarina dying meaninglessly. 

He would not care if he has to die. But Katarina should not. But the most ideal ending, was that for both of them to live.

And breaking through is his only way right now to make sure that ideal ending could be achieved.

But even though he needs to meet a lot of people today, he did not split his body into avatars and meet all of them at the same time

It is not because he couldn’t do that. 

The reason is simply because he wanted to break through to Essence Creation later and he lets his Law Avatars inside his body gather the laws of the world until it is truly at its peak. 

Each time he uses his Law Avatar it consumes a lot of energy.

There is no need to waste it with things that is not beneficial. And there is still the fact that he still needs to be vigilant. 

The Demon King might have left but who knows what kinds of other evil things that is now residing on Earth. Azief after all could sense there is many more humans than before 

There is now around twenty billion humans in the world. That alone had surpassed the population of humans before the Fall ever happened.

Before the Fall, the population of humans on Earth was around seven billion people. 

After the Fall, it fell down to around six billion or five billions. Then the Weronian Invasion which further drove down the human population to four to three billion humans on Earth

Then why would suddenly the population of humans suddenly explode to twenty billion people which almost a fivefold increase of human population. 

Because these other humans are humans from Other Worlds that was either stuck here when the barrier between worlds was closed, or those who accidentally enter here and did not want to return to their world

Azief saw there is even an entire kingdom that was suddenly transported into Earth Prime. This is another problem that the Great Powers had to handle. 

Humans from the Other Worlds is not the only race that stay here on Earth. There is even more beast or all kinds that also were I the same situations like the humans of the Other Worlds.

There are all kinds of new beast that Azief had sense with his Divine Sense. Some of them are sea creatures that was gigantic in size, slithering on the bottom of the vast dark deep sea.

There are also titanic land creatures like an elephant the size of a thirty floor building. If this was before, all of these new creatures that had enter Earth would create massive damage to Earth.

But with the expansion of the planet, the world is now very vast and twenty billion people is a small amount of people that there is land for everybody. 

Supermassive continents could be found almost everywhere. Earth become a Super Earth. The beast is also dangerous. Who could guarantee that these beasts would not suddenly went into attack mode?

Earth had become a fantasy-like world like those Xianxia novel he had read in the past. There is monsters, titanic beast, and magic

And this is the other reason why Azief would not wastefully uses his law Avatar to meet with people right now. 

The danger is still present. 

Who knows if this group of humans from the Other Worlds have some weapon that could change the balance of power in this world? 

If there is such a thing that could threaten Earth safety, then Azief should be in full strength to make sure that it could not be used to create damage.

And the beast is also a matter of concern since they too could possess great power of destruction. Azief had many considerations when using his power. 

While his power is at the top, he would always remember never to underestimate his enemies. He shakes his head as he thought to himself

‘One problem at a time’ he reminded himself to pace himself and not to get too impatient. 

Not to be too overwhelmed. 

The news that Katarina is kidnapped messes with his mind. 

Emotions sometimes rules him. And that is never good for decision making. He had matured from his past experience. 

But, Azief knows he is not yet mature enough to just be cold and heartless. It is because he had a heart that he felt all of this emotion. 

If he is purely only seeking benefits, then that is not him. At times, the decision he would make would not benefit him at all. 

Such action would make people call him an idiot.

But, that is who he is. Sometimes, he did not do the smart thing. He did the wrong thing for the right reason.

The smartest thing to do right now was to abandon Katarina. 

That is beneficial for him. 

He did not have to risk his safety and could easily waited and increase his level without the added pressure of trying to save Katarina in a week

But, Azief is not heartless. 

So, he would make that stupid decision for her. It is like that time when he and Sofia trying to cross the Pahang River.

He had thought that he could be heartless. He thought that he would see her Sofia as nothing but an asset that could help him survive.

But when the time comes, Azief throws all that thoughts out of the back of his mind and even sacrifice his arm to help save Sofia.

Sometimes, the things he thought off and the things he speaks off runs contrary to what he is feeling in his heart.

It is different from saying and thinking of it and actually doing it.

He then once again looks toward that island in the distance

His eyes are trained at that island. He once again locks down his target. That person is standing on a balcony overlooking his soldiers.

He has many people to meet and he wanted to start with that person. 

‘Hmm. It is time for us to talk’
