Lord Shadow

Chapter 1535 Great Oracle

The submarine had gained notoriety, attracting the interest of world powers who sought to track its movements and uncover its purpose.

This submarine is none other than the Narwhal, a marvel of engineering equipped with cutting-edge technology. 

It boasted advanced stealth capabilities, rendering it nearly undetectable by conventional means. 

It was also impervious to bullets and energy fields, making it a formidable force to be reckoned with.

  Even in the treacherous depths of the sea, the Narwhal remained unyielding, designed to withstand crushing pressures that would normally crush other vessels.

The submarine was armed with a wide array of weaponry, specifically tailored to combat the monstrous creatures that lurked in the Deep Sea. Its arsenal possessed the power to vanquish even the most formidable of adversaries. 

However, the Narwhal was not merely a vessel of war. 

It exuded luxury and sophistication, with its interior resembling that of a lavish cruise ship. 

Those fortunate enough to step foot inside its quarters would be greeted by opulence and comfort.

The appearance of the submarine, unmistakably belonging to the enigmatic One-Eyed Oracle Erika, catches the attention of those who are familiar with her. 

Unlike notorious figures such as Loki or Void, who are wanted criminals in the territories of world powers, Erika is not considered a criminal. 

Instead, she is sought after all over the world due to her unique ability to see the future.

Erika has managed to elude the world powers and maintain a favourable relationship with both the Republic and the World Government. 

Even after the establishment of the other four world powers by Death Monarch, Erika has maintained a neutral yet amicable stance towards all the world powers. 

This has granted her a certain level of freedom and lack of reason to hide from public view.

However, Erika did disappear from the public eye for a number of years, drawing curiosity from those who were aware of her existence. 

When she resurfaced, it was alongside Void, which further sparked interest and speculation. This unexpected appearance also sheds light on the mystery surrounding Voidʼs fate and the identity of his saviour.

Currently, with the worldʼs attention primarily focused on the aftermath of the war, the fact that the One-Eyed Oracle saved Void, a former leader of the Crime Alliance, may not be receiving much attention.

  The larger-scale events and their consequences have overshadowed this particular detail for now. 

Nevertheless, for those familiar with Erikaʼs abilities and reputation, this revelation adds another intriguing layer to the complex web of alliances, conflicts, and hidden motivations that shape the world.

And the world power is very interested in the reason why Erika would ally with Void, a former leader of the Crime Alliance and why she had saved him. 

The atmosphere grew solemn and reverent as the One-Eyed Oracle Erika emerged from the submarine. 

Despite her physical appearance, with her eyepatch, cloudy right eye, and frail demeanour, the Seven Warlords recognized her as more than meets the eye. 

To them, she exuded an aura of ancient wisdom and immense power, as if she were a being who had traversed the world for ages.

Erikaʼs attire further added to her enigmatic presence.

  She was adorned in a purple robe adorned with intricate runic designs that occasionally emitted a golden or white glow. 

The runes on her robe, a symbol of her prophetic abilities, were specifically crafted to absorb the energy of heaven and earth, providing her with a constant source of power.

Stepping onto the port, Erika greeted the Seven Warlords with a cunning smile, her gaze fixed on the expansive island before her. 

Then she took her step forward and her step echoes loudly, drowning even the sound of the wind and the sea waves hitting the waves breaker in the distance

She takes a few more steps on the port and someone runs to. Dimitris come forward and hold her hand

”Your Excellency. Welcome home”

”What a gentleman” 

”Your Excellency. Welcome home!” The other six warlords all greeted her. 

She saw the seven people and she chuckle and nodded

”Itʼs good to be back”

…..

A few minutes later, Erika is in Mount Parnassus. 

The mountain has also changed a lot. 

”The temples are broken and the land shattered” she muttered as she looks around the area 

Barnabas was walking beside her as she walks around the land. 

”It will be rebuilt” 

And Erika only nodded at this. 

As Erika ventured through the transformed Mount Parnassus alongside Barnabas, she couldnʼt help but notice the drastic changes that had befallen the once serene mountain. 

The temples lay in ruins, and the land itself had been shattered.

  It was a stark contrast to the protected national park it once was. 

After the Fall, the mountain had become a haven for monsters, and it was only through the combined efforts of Erika and the aid of the World Government that it was partially cleared, allowing her to establish the Temple of Delphi.

Although Erika had sought refuge in Moscow and established another temple there when she chose the Republic, Greece had always been her true home.  I think you should take a look at

The familiar wind, scents, and people resonated deeply with her. 

As she breathed in the mountain air and felt the cold wind rustle her robe, she couldnʼt contain her laughter. 

The Seven Warlords exchanged perplexed glances, understanding that Erikaʼs visions and insights into the future often brought forth moments of amusement.

”This place used to be teeming with olive trees, but now...” Erika trailed off, her gaze surveying the surroundings in disbelief. 

However, rather than lamenting the changes, she saw an opportunity to make the temple even grander in this altered landscape. 

The mountainʼs height had tripled, reaching towering heights and shrouded in clouds. 

Thunderbolts crackled across the sky during storms, and mythical creatures like griffins and flying monsters soared above.

Gone were the olive trees, replaced by mysterious fruits of unknown origin that dotted the terrain. 

The caves within the mountain hid countless titanic snakes and worms, adding an air of mystique and danger to the surroundings. 

Prior to Erikaʼs arrival, the Seven Warlords had cleared the path and constructed a teleportation portal atop the mountain, ensuring a safe passage for her.

Erikaʼs divine senses expanded, and she detected the distant sound of water.

Guided by her intuition, she followed the enchanting melody and was awe-struck by the sight of a majestic waterfall cascading from a towering cliff enveloped in clouds. 

”There is even a waterfall. Did you all do that?” Andreas shook his head 

”that was already there. If Your Excellency wanted, I could remove that waterfall” Erika shook her head

”Andreas, you still donʼt know how to appreciate beauty,” she remarked, chuckling softly. With Antonius behind her and Barnabas by her side, Erika nodded in satisfaction.

”This is the perfect place to build my temple,” she declared, her eyes gleaming with determination and anticipation. 

”Do you need help? I could send a few thousand androids to help you create the temple” But Erika waves her hand and simply said. 

”No, this, requires a personal touch” she look around like she is already envisioning her temple and she chuckles

”A sprinkle of magic here and there and a few drawings of magical formation and everything would be perfect” she muttered to herself

They keep walking until they reached the summit

As they reached the summit of Mount Parnassus, a breath-taking sight unfolded before them. 

The clearing at the mountaintop was meticulously prepared, with the lush grass expertly trimmed, creating a perfect meadow-like expanse. 

The vibrant green stretched out, contrasting against the rugged terrain of the surrounding mountainside.

The atmosphere was serene and tranquil. 

The clouds above hung peacefully in the sky, casting soft shadows over the clearing. 

A gentle breeze rustled through the tall grass, creating a soothing melody that seemed to harmonize with the natural beauty of the surroundings. 

The air carried a hint of freshness, infused with the scent of wildflowers and the earthy aroma of the mountain.

In the centre of the clearing stood a long, elegantly crafted table, adorned with intricate carvings and symbols. 

It exuded an air of importance and purpose, beckoning those gathered to take their seats.

Surrounding the table were nine chairs, each one meticulously placed, awaiting their occupants.

Erika took a moment to appreciate the meticulous preparation, her eyes tracing the details of the clearing. 

”You have prepared well” Erika mutters

Erika took her seat and the seven warlords and Antonius also sits down. 

”We could have eaten first” Nikos suddenly said

Erika shook her head and spoke

”I like to discuss matters before eating. If not, I will feel indigestion afterwards. So, speak”

Barnabas stood up from his chair and bow slightly toward Erika

”Your Excellency, we would like for you to speak with Hikigaya”

Erika smiles

”Negotiate an alliance between Greece and Japan?”

The seven warlords nodded

Thanos then stood up and bowing slightly before raising his head again and then he asks

”Will Greece be affected in the coming conflict?”

This question might be weird if Thanos had asked anyone else. But he asked the Oracle. And not just any ordinary seers and oracles.

The woman who is titled the Great Oracle.
