Lord Shadow

The world was still reeling from the battle between Death Monarch and the Demon King. The storms are just trying to calm itself down.

The energy of the world slowly increases and while some of them are still chaotic, it is slowly smoothening out.

The expansion of the world is still happening though at a slightly slower pace. Outside Earth, the Moon, the Sun and the other planets was also affected by the Multiversal Convergence and is also stabilizing itself

The Great Powers all trying to stabilize their regions the moment the battle ended

There is always a chance that another Demon King could come out.

The hidden force of the Great Powers which is consisted of Disk Formation leveler come out and began researching the damage around their capital while some of their Disk Formation levelers were sent out to escort their citizens that would be released from the Mirror Dimension.

A brand new world has appeared. 

The first step that these Great Power had done is to check their territory. 

They wanted to know how much the continent that they are in had expanded and the limits of their territory and what dangers it now contained.

Everything was over. 

But they were still vigilant. The Demon King was dead but then another news shocks the great powers.

The Ice Queen Katarina was kidnapped. The High Chancellor of the Republic, the only sister of Boris had been kidnaped by the Demon King

This news shocks the Great Powers. 

Because, Katarina is not some normal woman. 

This is one of the leader of the Three Great Powers and she also have complicated relationship with Death Monarch

All the Great Power leader when they heard the news, their first thought was not whether Katarina would be safe or not. 

It was whether Death Monarch would follow her to the demonic world

And that is not something any of these leaders want. 

If Death Monarch leaves, as he is the only one is capable to fight against such a Demon king, the leaders of these great power was worried that if he left, then if another intruder with the same level of power as the Demon King intrude upon Earth once again, how could they survive?

Now, at least, the Great Power was very relieved that Death Monarch is on Earth. 

And they also realize how weak they are in the scheme of thing.

Katarina kidnapping worries the great powers because of what her effect would be to Death Monarch. 

And then they heard the news that Boris is flying toward Death Monarch and every one could guess what Boris would ask Death Monarch.

These leaders of course could not cover the area of the world with their Divine Sense right now. Then how did they get their news? 

It is Jean that relayed it to them using his Time Avatar that is beside all the leaders of the Great Powers

Like Jean chat Hirate up, he also kept the other Great Powers leaders keep abreast with the development that is happening in the world

Sometimes, Jean would disappear for a few seconds before appearing back beside these leaders and come back with new information.

Time Avatars is after all were pulled out from Jean own timeline so they had to return to their original timeline once in a while.

The news of Katarina kidnapping, the subsequent decision that is taken by Boris who did not return to the Senate building and instead went to Death Monarch sends the Republic order into chaos.

The Senators had already convened a meeting and hope that all of the other Senators to come via holographic projection to discuss the matter.

It is not like before where these senators could easily fly to Moscow and arrive in a few minutes.

Right now, their speed is not as fast as before and there are even more airborne creatures on the air and many other monsters and beast all over the world

Some of them are weak, some of them could pose quite a challenge and some of them could even kill them unless they are around Divine Comprehension leveler or a pinnacle realm Disk Formation leveler

The distance is also not like before. 

Even a village that is just a few kilometers away before the expansion had now stretched to thousands of kilometers away from their original position, so one could only imagine the distance between continents that would have changed

Right now, there is not yet any warlord that shows any opportunistic tendency to profit amidst the chaos in the European continent.

But when this current situation stabilized, that would naturally not be so. There were many events that happens after the kidnapping of Katarina that would send head spinning. 

Jean keep relaying the news and each news is shocking.

Boris flew on top of his griffin to meet Death Monarch and talk to him. 

Death Monarch had decided he would take Katarina back home, deterring any of the other leaders to communicate their intention to Death Monarch to stay

Jean had become Divine Compression leveler and contributed the most to saving the people of the world other than Death Monarch who fought the Demon King.

Hikigaya breakthrough to Divine Comprehension level on the moon and created an illusion powerful enough to stop an Essence Creation leveler on its track while also seeing the secrets that the World Powers tried to hide on the moon.

But, the big news is the Katarina kidnapping and Death Monarch decision.

As such, with all of these events, there is no doubt in everyone mind, that the Republic would be full on chaos after it stabilized the position of the Senators.

But, the news doesn’t seem to end. 

As Lee Sangmin and Warp opens the Mirror Dimension and bringing out the people that he had teleported inside it, another news breaks out. 

Pandemonium, Death Monarch vouch the safety of Loki, the perpetrator of the Multiversal Convergence event.

Once again, it shocks the world. And this time, everyone could hear the telepathic message. To the layman, they were only shocked to heard the news.

They could not understand why Death Monarch would still try to protect Loki the Trickster. 

These people do not understand the bond between Death Monarch and the Trickster and they seem to not recognize that there is something else that was chilling about that message

Or to be more accurate about Hirate ability to transmit the message to all over the world at real time with not obstruction or blurry messages.

But to those great leaders of the forces of the Great Power, they understood the implication of Hirate ability to suddenly broadcast his telepathic message to the whole world.

The distance between one continent to the other is not like before. Each continent is separated by tens of thousands of miles away.

But Hirate could still do it? With his level as Disk Formation leveler? That was impossible. So, everyone could deduce that Death Monarch was there.

Death Monarch was there meeting with the leader of the World Government. That is something that is very worrying to the other Great Powers

They did not know what kind of method that Death Monarch did to help Hirate

But whatever that method was, it enables Hirate to project his thoughts to the entire world, expressing the stance of Death Monarch

And the stance of Death Monarch is the stance of Pandemonium. And Pandemonium stance on things is very important to the world

Out of all the Great Powers, Pandemonium was the least affected. 

They still remain the number one power and with Death Monarch display of prowess that was witnessed by all the people of the world, that position would still remain to Pandemonium as long as Death Monarch is still alive.

Their cities stand strong and the formation that they have defended many of their other cities. 

By almost half an hour, most of the destroyed streets all over the Central Palace were repaired by nanobots that was developed by the Pandemonium Research Center

Not to mention with the many elites they have, they managed to save a lot of people in Pandemonium.

They did not have much to grind with Loki. 

They could accept Death Monarch decision. 

Not that they have a choice even if they are angry. Death Monarch would always be the ruler of Pandemonium and each of his words is the highest law of Pandemonium.

But, others suffer. 

And the reason why they suffer is because of Loki the Trickster. 

As such, to those who survived the demonic horde but lose their loved one, when they heard the news that said The Trickster was the one responsible for today tragedy, these people vowed that they would take their revenge to Loki.

Of course, those who sat on the thrones of powers knows that it is not as simple as that. 

The Multiversal Convergence might have happened because of Loki, but he is not the only one to blame. 

Whoever had mess with Time and Space, especially when someone messes with the Multiverse, they all have a part in this. 

The World Gate that belongs to the World Government is also responsible as it weakens the stability between worlds. 

The Republic also have its own method of accessing the Multiverse and one could only imagine the experimentation that they did that would surely leave a scar upon the fabric of reality. 

Not to mention the other Great Powers that might also experimented with trying to open a barrier or door to other dimension and other parallel worlds.

Each time a travel between worlds happen, the fabric of reality weakens.

Hence, it is not fair to blame Loki alone. Loki was just the unfortunate match that light the fire. 

The truth was anyone could be the match that lit the fire. They just have to be unfortunate enough to travel or mess with time and space at the correct moment.

The leaders of the Great Powers of course did not know that Azief was the real culprit.
