Lord Shadow

Chapter 1354 Prison in the Middle of Nowhere II

　　People always said that Death Monarch acts like a judge, jury and executioner. That he follows no laws but the laws he set himself

　　It is actually frightening to meet such person. Because the difference in value could mean that you in their eyes are the guilty one. 

　　Not to mention, Death Monarch is the strongest person in the world. 

　　In the real world, even if your value is different from the other person that other person could not force you to follow his values because there are other factors that restrict such a person from forcing people to follow their value

　　It is the law and other people who could stop such a person. 

　　But in the world after the Fall, who could stop someone like Death Monarch if he wishes to enforce his value upon other people?

　　These does not take account to the fact that there is even some people who could manipulate memories, hypnotize people, go into others people bodies to name a few others methods of controlling people. 

　　So, Death Monarch existence has always been a fearsome one to many people. 

　　Hirate likes to point this out to people.

　　  And the same could be said for the Republic who took Laws as one of their most prized creed. Loki could see that it had the glamour of ancient Rome. 

　　The Senate was first built to fight against the World Government. 

　　It was a branding. 

　　The Revolutionary Army did not have a true organized leadership with factions fighting factions.

　　With Boris and Katarina holding the reins, there is some semblance of peace and then the Republic was born and the creed and the slogan it uses is nothing more but propaganda to attract people to come and stay under their umbrella and to fight for them

　　But in the years that followed the cooperation between the Three Great Powers, the Republic began creating an identity for themselves. 

　　They created Laws that they themselves follow. It is to create a stable world. And they themselves believes in it

　　They put the Law above all else. 

　　The Senators gained power and the Left and Right Chancellor deliberated on the laws with the High Chancellor with the power to use executive decision. 

　　Executive decision in the Republic is basically like an Emperor decree, that could bypass all the process and put into the Bills of Laws. 

　　It is with this creed and slogans that the Senate manage to attract people to live under their rule. 

　　Theirs are a government ruled by the Law. 

　　And of course, for such a society they abhor the existence of someone like Death Monarch but they also know that Death Monarch is not someone you badmouth openly.

　　Even the Senators of the Senate would sometimes flinch when one of their fellow senators launches a tirade against Death Monarch rule, fearing that a thunderbolt would fall down from the sky

　　Loki think to himself whether those same senators that spouted high ideals would dare to speak such word in front of his brother?

　　Loki think not. 

　　The same for the World Government. 

　　And Loki is like his brother. In this prison, he is the judge, jury and executioner. In a way, even he is a bit influenced by his brother.

　　  Is it right that he kidnapped people and stuff them in a prison no one knows about, without any deliberation or any trials or any way for them to defend themselves and the things that they have done

　　But, if he did not do that then who does he trust to uphold the Law? Some of the prisoners here are high ranking people. 

　　He knew that the factions behind them would protect them if it were ever brought to court.

　　Loki did not think much of this matter

　　All he knew is that there are monsters in this world dressed like a human and bringing injustice and blood whenever they go.

　　The people he caught and kidnapped are not the kind of people who does minor offenses.

　　  They killed people like they were bugs, they committed the most depraved and disgusting acts that harms the world and the people in it. 

　　And this kind of crazy dog needs to be put down. 

　　Loki shakes his head and then opens the door. 

　　In the room there is a person in white lab coat sitting on a cold metal chair his hand and his face on the cold metal table. 

　　The moment he heard that the door was opened, he lifts his face from the table

　　Then his eyes widened. It is clear that he recognized Loki

　　'Trickster!' 

　　'Professor Paul Koch was it?' The man in the lab coat nodded unconsciously. This man is a middle age man with white thick beard, his hair is trimmed neatly and he wears glasses.

　　He had tall body and good proportions. 

　　Loki sat down opposite him and smiles.

　　The Professor sit straight on his chair and he narrows his eyes. before, he was lethargic but now he was perplexed.

　　Because in front of him is Loki. Right now, he is thinking in his head where does the intersection between him and the Trickster began

　　Try hard as he might, he could not remember that he had any interaction with Loki or his forces.

　　He recognizes Loki because of the iconic look that he had been wearing for the past sixth months. 

　　Everyone knows that Loki had thousand faces. With his transformation ability, he could morph his face to look like anybody.

　　It is what makes him so good at infiltrating his enemies' forces. Some said that he even could mimic the demeanor and mannerism of the people he took appearance of. 

　　His mind is hard at work but then he shakes his head, his eyes looking straight at the Trickster eyes. 

　　  'I have no dealings with the Crime Alliance. And I have no dealings with whatever you are involved with. Why kidnap me?' he said like he was dumbfounded.

　　Now that he knew that Loki was the one that kidnaps him, he thinks he could reason his way out. 

　　It is not his enemies. He is quite sure that while he did things in the past to people that are quite dangerous, he is one hundred percent sure that Loki the Trickster is not someone he had ever crossed path with

　　'This must be a big misunderstanding' he added. Loki did not say anything, but there is a smile on his face. 

　　Three days ago, Paul was researching something in a remote jungle in a new continent. There were many new plants, a new flora and fauna is flourishing in that large jungle. 

　　There were beautiful rivers, lush thick greenery and animals that looks like it jumped out of a fantasy novel

　　Of course, his research is not to enjoy those things but to take samples to aid in his current project. 

　　He was close to a breakthrough when he was attacked at night. When he thinks about it again, he could not remember how he was attacked

　　By the time he gained consciousness, he was inside this room. At that time, he still thought that he was attacked by the local forces of that jungle.

　　But the more he was in this room, the more he believes that the person who kidnapped him is not the local forces

　　The entire room might seem like a normal room but Paul had seen enough of array formation to sense that the entire room, from the ceiling to the tiles beneath his feet, each one is carved with a rune that emanate a certain power of Laws.

　　This room might look small and could fit only a few people but there are two doors in this room. One of the door is the door that Loki had just come from. 

　　That door was locked. 

　　For three days he had tried to open that door.

　　  He uses all the methods he could use and think off but the door did not budge even an inch. The fact that it was locked made him confident that was the way out

　　But try as he might, he could not even make the door budge.  And the other door is on the opposite side of the locked door. 

　　When he tries to open that door, he was surprised to find out that it was not locked. When he finally opens the door and went inside it, he was surprised with an unexpected view

　　He thought it would be a torture room or a dungeon or something along that line. What he saw however is a vast room with a penthouse like design with beautiful bed for him to lay down, a fridge full of foods and drinks

　　It looks like a penthouse suit

　　But none of that makes him happy because the more he sees these kind of things, the more he became uneasy

　　He immediately recognizes that the place he is in uses some kind of Time –Space Law. He finally understands what those runes meant to do

　　Distort Space and Time.
