Lord Shadow

Trisha is the oldest. She is fierce and brave. She is also the most loyal toward Loki.

And she loves Loki. Loki might see all of them as his daughter. But that does not mean all three of them look at him the same

Trisha had always love him. Riana believe Loki notices this. But he had never acknowledged this feeling that Trisha had felt for him

As for Greisha, she was the youngest. Loki when he first brought that child in the house, he doted on her.

At night when he had nothing to do, he would tell her fairytale stories and would conjure magical sight for her to see, so she could laugh.

She likes to snarl at Loki, like a feral kitten when she first came. She was hurt by the world and she was healed by Loki.

The three of them were all abandoned to die and they were all saved by him. It is this bond that binds them together.

And it is this bond that made her to have such conflicting feeling now that she is face to face with him like this.

She could only plead with him with her eyes. Since she had the power to fight on her own, she had never disobeyed any orders that Loki had given her.

At times, the task is dangerous. Other times it is easy. But whatever the task that is given, Loki always give them all the same advice.

If they were not able to do it, if they felt that their life could be threatened, they must return and they must fight to live.

Now as they look at each other, in Riana eyes there is this hesitation.

She had never raised her hands against Loki.

But in Loki eyes, it is very clear. Even though Riana had appeared in front of him, his eyes is still as clear as it is before. Like his purpose is pure and righteous.

‘My lord’ she said.

‘You notice me?’ Loki ask. though he was not that surprised seeing her here.

Riana could only nod.

She heard the sound of the rock music and she only knows one person that could be this playful and theatrical all at the same time.

The pop culture references, the songs, it is a trademark of her teacher. She immediately left the basement and uses her super speed to reach Nathan position in the blink of an eye.

And now she is. Confronting the man who she had regarded as her father. She answers the question

‘Back in Black. AC/DC. That is how I knew it was you. And other than Sasha, you were probably the one that would find a way to reach here.’

Loki chuckles and he said

‘I’m impressed you know the song.’

Riana reply

‘Greisha always like to rummage around your office. She found the CD. And I always knew you like to collect old stuff from the time before the Fall. We listen to it’

‘You like it?’

Riana shakes her head.

‘Not my taste’

Loki chuckles again.

‘I thought so. A pity. The basslines had always been thought as iconic and legendary. It pumps me up and it does give me quite the entrance. Nothing beats a dramatic entrance with hard rock song accompanying you.’

Then he clicks his tongue

‘After all, not everybody could control the Heavens and let the thunders and lightning go wild just too announce their entrance. That is way above my abilities. Had to settle with some conjuration magic.’

The person he is reoffering to is probably none other than Death Monarch.

Riana only bitterly smiles, seeing her teacher talking like that

‘Greisha like it though’ Riana then added.

Loki only smiles at this.

‘She had so much similarities with me’

Riana face expression turns hard and then said

‘You doted on her the most’ Loki sighed while shaking his head

‘I doted on all three of you’ Riana felt her heart beats even hard. But she is still there. In front of Nathan.

Ready to fight.

For a moment there is silence between them. Outside there seems to be some force entering the house. It is invisible, colorless but it is not entirely traceless.

Riana could sense it. Out of the three of the sisters, she had the most acute senses. Her class is a secret class.

She is an Empath Witch.

Which is one of the secret class of Witches.

She could emulate and mimic other people class.

Because of this there were many misunderstanding about her true class in the reports of many intelligence reports of the world power.

It is a lot like the abilities of one of the advisors of Hirate.

There is an advisor of the President whose codename is Mimic. No one had seen his face but many believe that his ability is to Mimic other people abilities.

Since no one had never seen him fight no one knew whether that is truly his abilities. But to be given the codename Mimic, it must have something to do with his abilities.

Riana abilities is also able to mimic. Now, she is already at the Disk formation leveler. She could mimic up to Seven classes.

‘You need to leave, Riana’

‘My lor-‘

‘Leave!’ Loki seems to have been influenced by certain traits of Death Monarch. Loki might not have as many subordinate as Death Monarch have.

But each of Loki subordinate could create world shaking chaos.

When he sends an order, he only needs to send it once. When he orders the same instruction, that means he is getting serious.

‘I can’t. I love him….’ and after hesitating, she said

‘Please, father’

Loki then said coldly

‘That is a big mistake’

Loki shakes his head and said

‘I let you leave with him in the past. I let you save him from the forces of Pandemonium before. I just did not expect that instead of sheltering with me, you would send him to Shadow Guards. If you had sent him to me, persuade him to ask help from me, then today would not happen.’

Loki takes a move and his hand in piercing motion went straight toward Nathan. But, his eyes went to Riana.

Almost like he wanted to see what Riana would do.

It is a test. It is always test. In that one moment, time seems to slow down for all three of them.

It is not that Loki was slow but because all of them quickly move in super speed so everything seem so slow.

A dust falling down from the debris on the ceiling could be seen moving in the decreased speed times by ten thousand

Riana was tested many times. There is always a test. And this test, this attack is a test of loyalty. Out of the many things Loki regarded the most important among his people is loyalty.

A loyalty that could not be bought by money, coerced by torture or tempted by sweet dreams. It is the reason why Trisha was the most trusted out of the three of them

Loki makes his move and the green mist crawl the walls of the house. It did not go down to the basement but it enveloped the house.

Thin green mist in the house, thick circular mist twelve meters away from the house.

Riana knows her father would not stop. Nathan open his eyes wide trying to see if he could see any weakness.

Only question marks appear in his gaze when he looks at Loki. Loki is also Disk Formation like him

But for some reason, he still could not see through him. Like he had some other methods to conceal his appearance.

He did not have the power to stop that strike.

Even when he wanted to move, it seems some kind of force nail him to the ground.

There is no pressure when he did not move but the moment he tries to move; he could feel a powerful pressure on his knees.

When he wanted to burst out with energy a thin green thin translucent membrane would appear around the area where he wanted to burst out his energy and forces that energy to calm down.

He is transfixed in place.

Riana also make a move and moving in a speed that surpasses sound they clashed with each other.

Loki only uses his physical power and not his magic. Riana also uses some kind of Warrior class power. Her body is shrouded with thick flaming orange aura

It is the Berserk state of a warrior.

She forcefully deflects Loki strike with her palm attack forcing Loki to change his piercing motion into a palm attack.

Riana kick the ground and spin in the air as her foot strike toward that palm

Loki casually glided backwards like he is a father floating down from above. Loki was not affected in that short exchange of strikes.

But the same could not be said about Riana.

Even though she deflects the piercing motion, she had injuries all over the side of her right arms.

The piercing motion might not reach Nathan, but the blast of the energy that was neutralized by Riana exploded towards her.

And her feet are feeling like thunder is crawling all over her skin. Her knees are trembling and in pain. Veins on her feet all become tensed.

Her arms and her feet is full of pain. She only winces once.

Loki only shakes his head. On the second floor, the Back in Black song had ended. The house is silent.
