Lord Shadow

Chapter 1310 Time Went Wrong

What he felt was the pressure from the Heavens.

When Azief first returns and confirms that this is his Earth, he began trying to feel the Heavenly Will.

He could tell that the barrier that he had created to warn the Heavenly Will not to enroach on his authority is already very thin.

He could tell that in his absence the Heavenly Will once again try to regain full control.

That is the other reason why he did not use Heavenly Will to augment his Divine Sense.

He does not want to detected by the Heavenly Will. Every being under the Heavens is monitored by the Heavenly Will. Other than a few people who could shrouded themselves from the eyes of the Heavenly Will, the Heavenly Will sees all.

And Azief is one of the few people on Earth that could hide himself and even Katarina from the eyes of the Heavenly Will

That spiral of energy that swirls around Katarina body not only protected her from the crash, it also has something special in it that enables Azief to hide her from the eyes of the Heavenly Will

For now, he would let that Heavenly Will go. Not until he makes sure of something

He looks around him and nodded.

ʼThis is a good place as anyʼ he mutters. Katarina was only a few feet from him and then Azief suddenly waves his hand.

A powerful force burst out from his hand that sweeps across the area. Katarina was about to raise her guard up when the energy passes her.

It seems that the energy did not harm her in the slightest

The area where both of them are in now is full of towering trees.

It shades them from the sun and it is for that reason the forest is so dark and damp.

But with one wave of his hand, the trees around one-hundred-meter radius of Azief position was cleared out.

The trees all disintegrated into ashes.

Leaving only a huge clearing.

Amazingly enough, the grass and the herbs on the ground was not affected at all. Only the tall trees were disintegrated.

The bottom of the tree however, the stump was left behind.

He is not done yet. Katarina was about to ask what he was doing when Azief pointed one of his finger upwards.

Ringgg! There is a sound like a bell being struck and the sound seems to echoes. Katarina could see that one of the rings on Azief finger is shining bright

Katarina knows that Azief had ten rings. Each of these rings have powerful abilities. It is Azief most prized artifact.

ʼwhat is he doing? The moment she thought of this suddenly, there is light covering the one-hundred-meter radius

The center is Azief and everywhere on the one-hundred-meter radius from him is covered with golden light.

Then runic symbols flew out from his rings and floats toward four directions. The one-hundred-meter radius expanded to five hundred meters

ʼA Formation!ʼ Katarina exclaimed in her heart. She would not mistake it. Azief is trying to lay down a formation right now.

The four runes that fly out to the four direction acted like a border. It determines how much of space the formation would be able to spread.

It stopped at five-hundred-meter radius. Katarina look at the formation

This formation is circular in shape and it covers the area of the clearing. Then illusions seem to appear around the formation

The area which seem to be cleared out now seem to be full again with trees.

Only the people inside the formation knows that there is no tree. It is an illusion.

Azief then sit on one of the stump and he gestures Katarina to sit down in the stump beside him. Everything seem so natural.

Katarina was also shocked at this, at how casual Azief is right now. It is clear that he is used to this.

Then she looks at the formation again

Katarina then slowly frown. Because she could now recognize that the formation that Azief had just throws out is a concealing formation.

This is used for anti-surveillance. What Katarina understood almost immediately is that, Azief fears someone would hear what they said.

He was so careful and cautious that it raised the alarms in Katarina heart. Earth is not like the Seresian world.

At least in the Seresian world there is ancient old monsters that could still give Azief a run for his money. But not on Earth prime.

On Earth Prime, Azief is the strongest person in the world. There is no need for him to fear anything. Instead, usually, Azief on Earth Prime throws caution to the wind.

It is not that he did not know how to be careful but on Earth Prime, he had no enemies that could threaten him.

Like a sole predator in a cage full of prey.

But right now, Azief is careful enough to even lay down a concealing formation. Now, some of the questionable act that Azief done in the beginning began to make sense.

It seems that Azief had found something that she did not. Something that concerns him enough that he had become cautious like this.

The four runes are stably floating in the air maintaining the entire formation like it is walls. She also notices that the formation is not merely a concealing formation.

It also has certain function of illusion.

It refracted the light and manipulated the space.

Of course, Katarina knows that Azief while he is talented in many things, even a person like him did not have all the time in the world to practice formation.

Katarina had learned formation once and almost give up because of how difficult it is. And she was learning a battle formation that she wanted to employ with her maidens.

Imagine other formation that requires more intricate control. The only reason why Azief manage to create such a perfect formation is simply because he has the Ring of Grand Formation.

The illusion function of this formation seems to materialize tress out of nowhere. This is probably to hide that there is now a bald spot on the island forest.

The illusion function and the formation itself also seems to be concealing Azief and Katarina aura.

However, even though she understands that Azief is now being cautious and careful, she didnʼt understand what elicited such a response

Is there a danger that she didnʼt know about? But her senses did not sense anything. There is no feeling of danger.

Katarina look at Azief and she could not help but frown. They already formulated a plan when they were at the Seresian world

They have decided that when they return home, they first would go back to their force and assure them.

She would return to the Republic and take back her position as the High Chancellor and Azief would return to Pandemonium to once again sit on his throne as the monarch of Pandemonium.

Then they would call upon a meeting of all the great powers. Before Azief left Earth, there is still many problems plaguing the entire world

Hikigaya and Oreki had separated from the World Government. The criminal warlords had also fled to other continents and seas.

There seems to be a factional battle in the Republic. The World Government is unstable with some governors is unconvinced with the power of the World Government

Pandemonium has his own set of problems with Azief not retracting his support for Loki.

After that, they would settle on a way for all the world power to distribute the continents. Azief wanted to once again divide the world among the seven great power

In the past Azief had divided the seven continent to seven great powers.

Of course, in each of these world power, most of them had to contend with local faction, other forces who tries to undermine the world power stationed there and so on and so forth

Other than the Republic, the World Government and Pandemonium, the other four world powers usually had to contend with the other local forces in the places that they were rewarded with.

For the four world powers, it was a contest of power and those who are weak would be eliminated.

Azief crafted this model to make it easy for the world to be governed under order. Let them fight each other and let the common people not bothered by it too much

Of course, this also makes the common people very important for the word power since they need people to replenish their force

Each world power has their own identity and their own methods of governing whether it be a democracy or monarchy or any other methods of governing they wanted to try

It also provides peace to the Three Great Powers when all of the other powers is busy fighting the local forces.

It was a chaotic period of time yet it was also one of the most orderly since the Fall.

But with the Multiversal Convergence happening, with new continents popping up, new kinds of lands, the old order was destroyed and so a new order need to build.

Azief actually have a plan to solve this matter. He had share this with Sasha. Though he did not share it with Katarina.

He said it would be a surprise. They were also supposed to talk about enhancing the security measures of the world

There are a few other things that they would do after that, but the first step has always been to return home back to their force first.

And Katarina is eager to meet with her brother. She is worried about him. Still, she sat down on the stump and then she asks

ʼWhat is this about Azief? We have a plan. Letʼs stick with itʼ

Then she asks

ʼis there something dangerous that makes you this cautious? I did not yet activate my Divine Sense but I donʼt think that there is anything on Earth that could threaten youʼ

Azief then sighed. he then shakes his head and said

ʼWe now have to change our planʼ he said. Katarina eyes narrowed.

ʼWhat do you mean?ʼ

ʼThere is a slight miscalculation.ʼ

Katarina did not say anything waiting for Azief to explain it to her.

ʼSomething had gone wrong. I expected it the moment my future-self attacked us inside the Time Space tunnel. Though, I donʼt think that it is that bad. I still could not confirm it of course but I really donʼt think that it is as bad as I thoughtʼ he said

Katarina then ask him

ʼWhat went wrong?ʼ

ʼTime. Time went wrongʼ Azief said.
