Lord Shadow

Chapter 1233 - The Guidance Of Fate And Destiny

He believes he would get the answer if he keeps looking at Arial life. Arial had made the Imperial Palace of the Vern Empire as his house.

Azief look at this and could not help but smile. Arial seems to forget that there is a war outside the Palace.

He saw Arial accumulate knowledge in the Imperial Library of the Vern Empire. It is at this moment that he learns how to read and write.

And there was another discovery that left Azief felt a little shocked.

The fortune that Arial had accumulated finally breaking out. But instead of breaking out all at once, only a bit of fortune and luck is dissipating and being used.

No wonder, Arial could quickly teach himself. Most of Arial life he did not know how to read and write.

Literacy is very low in the Human Continent. Unless if you are the children of rich wealthy merchants, nobles or knights, most peasants do not know how to write or read.

Azief remembers that when Arial rules the Human Continent, one of his policy is to encourage education.

Then suddenly Azief saw Arial fortune is burn quite a lot but even that is just the size of a candle compared to the entire fortune and luck that Arial had accumulated.

The burning of his fortune then leads to Arial finding a secret library.

Azief was curious of what kind of place this is that it burns that much fortune. If Arial fortune is the size of a seven feet three, the amount of fortune that was cut off is six feet.

If it is any normal person fortune, they would have exhausted almost fifty percent of their life fortune. And the only thing that could explain the burning of fortune that much is that there is something special about the secret library that Arial had found.

It did not take long for Azief to find out what so special about the library. It turns out that the library belongs to Levitia. Azief could not help but shakes his head.

And then there is a sense of destiny and fate being completed as Arial trained with then inner energy technique that Levitia had trained a thousand years earlier.

Arial then began training himself with the method of Levitia from the way he gathers inner energy and his methods of swordsmanship and fighting.

Fate and Destiny guided him hereʼ Azief thought to himself as he looks at Arial.

How could it be that coincidental?

The descendant of Levitia just stumbled onto Levitia secret library fills with his training methods.

Of course, there is the fortune and luck that Arial have that helps him but Azief believes that fate and destiny also have a lot to do with this.

ʼIt turns out there is such a grand layout of fate and destiny for Arialʼ Azief thought to himself.

Out of the many beings and people that Azief had met, Arial did not rank the highest in his mind. After all, Azief did meet a lot of beings in his journey.

He had met Alsurt, a Jotun that is chained and imprisoned and taught him many things from the levels of cultivation of energy to some taboos of the Universe.

He had also met Azul, a Grand Supreme Being that is probably the longest live being he had ever met in person, possessing power to reverse life and death, to mess up cause and effect, holding the power of the reincarnation and six tribulations

And Arial, at that time ranks pretty low in his mind.

But now, as more and more things is uncovered, Azief thinks he might have missed something.

It might be that his meeting with Arial and him saving Arial in the future seems to affect the trajectory of his life

The moment he thinks that, there is a feeling of some kind of premonition coming over him

He shakes it off pretty fast but he frowned.

ʼThere is a secret hereʼ What he knows about Arial is simply his history and his lineage and the story of that lineage.

Other than some other personal things like who he likes and loves, there is not much that he actually knows about Arial

He did not think that Arial had such a colorful life before he sees all of this.

Even though his battle with the Darkness was pretty epic, at that time Azief could not see or understand how powerful Arial had become.

Most worlds rarely produce a being of such power level that surpasses even Essence Creation. Even the Seresian world, with all of its abundance of energy rarely produce someone at the caliber of the Demon Emperor who is practically a Supreme Being

It wasnʼt until he is back again at Earth X that he now contemplating all of this. Arial seems to engrossed himself learning from the library but it seems that Arial missed something.

Arial did not found out that below the secret library there is in intricate labyrinthine path.

Azief uses only his Divine Sense and he could easily see there is interconnected tunnels network under the secret library and he was reminded of the matters between Leliana and Levitia.

After all, he knew some of the backstory. After all, he saw how Levitia escaped with Leliana

This must be how they escape from the palaceʼ Azief thought to himself.

ʼAlexander regretted what he did but regret is not enough. He lost his friend and also lost the love of the woman he loved the most. It is tragicʼ

Alexander, regardless of how the history books painted him was a diligent Emperor. After the death of Levitia, while the Empire itself is unstable and many people die of starvation, the fact was that he was able to make sure the Empire stay together

He commissioned the building of the Bleeding Wall. He trains the army and tries to enact policies that would strengthen the empire

While most of his policy could not get the approval of the Church and the nobles class, and some of his projects and plans failed, Alexander is diligent in making sure that the Empire did not fracture.

And it is because of his effort, the Empire lasted as long as it did.

The decision that he makes to betray Levitia is a decision not solely because of the love triangle between them but also because of politics, of power and influence.

It is not so simple because for people like Levitia and Alexander, the achievements and the feats that they have done makes everything that is pure become complicated.

If Alexander was not of the royal family, if Levitia is not as powerful, or if Leliana have loved any other men than Levitia, would the story change?

ʼIt wouldʼ Azief answer but there is a bitter smile as he added his own understanding

But fate and destiny would not allow thatʼ he thought to himself. He sighed thinking of the terrible fates of these people and then he continues watching Arial life.

And then a few days later, he notices something else. He narrowed his eyes and thought to himself

ʼIs that….ʼ He then flew out the imperial palace and come close to it.

A bird. To be more precise it is a raven

Amara ravens. Azief could not help but smiles bitterly

Amara send her ravens to give news to Arial who is cut off from the world.

Arial thought that he got the news from some resistance fighter against the invasion or people who is close to the border of the Vern capital city.

How could he have thought at that time that a Goddess is answering his question. This is a kind of divine favor. Amara had always favored the child of Aero.

And it is at this moment that Azief confirms another one of his doubts.

From the way Amara has been acting, prodding lightly at the back of Arial, watching over him, helping him but never revealing herself in the process, all of this felt very familiar.

It felt like the way Loki deals with him

And it seems that like Loki who knows his future, Amara seems to knows Arial future.

How much she sees and how much she knows is anyone guess. But Azief is quite sure of his conjecture

In Arial world, fate and destiny is very strong. The magic relating to these two is strong and so does its concepts and power.

That is what he felt and what he had seen. There is a pull and push of the attraction of fate and destiny.

The way Azief look at all of the lives of the people of this world, it was like it is a story written by a writer.

And everything had to go the way it was written. Azief did not realize this at first, it is a feeling he gradually felt.

Azief then shook his head and then once again speed up the projection. He wanted to see how Arial would go back to the past

Since he confirmed that this is another timeline, Azief is quite sure that Arial would somehow found a way to travel back to the past.

Considering that this capital city is full of traces of Time magic, he could deduce that something would happen here and that something would be related to Arial

And he began seeing things that would probably relates on how Arial would go back to the past
