Lord Shadow

Morning came and birds fly below the clouds, soaring freely. The clouds move gently, the wind is gentle and the air is refreshing.

The sound of waves near the shore sounds like an invitation and a man dressed in black T shirt with blue dark jeans look at all of this sight from the window of the kitchen

This man is none other than the famous Death Monarch Azief. Probably no one could imagine him looking like this

When one thinks of Death Monarch what they think about is a man shrouded in dark aura and wearing that black robe that seems to incite fear in the hearts of people.

Who could imagine that after not wearing the black robe, the Death Monarch look very different.

He did not wear his dark robe and there is no hood that cover his face. Instead, he almost looks like a person before the Fall with the t shirt and jeans.

Azief standing there on the kitchen looking like a male model.

With his height and his flawless face complexion, he looks handsome than just a model. This is because there is certain aura of power radiating around him.

His face is handsome and whoever see him will got the impression that he seems to be standing above the common crowd, once seen, it is hard to forget.

There is a certain confidence that is coming out of him and a proud temperament.

When he is mad, a pair of tiger eyes would look at you and when he is at ease, the eye is like mirror, reflecting your thoughts and desires.

This is what gives Azief his ethereal feeling.

But unfortunately not many could see this side of Death Monarch.

The world was accustomed to seeing Death Monarch who was proud and overbearing, disdaining the mortal world.

That is why people would always make a wrong step when facing him.

What he thought common sense, the other thought that he is behaving unpredictably. That is because the dissonance of his image and his true self, making him unreadable.

Azief then sighed as he cut up a few cucumber making slices

‘One day remain’ he muttered to himself

He has been spending almost all of the days he had left in Sofia house.

Today, he wakes up early. Seeing Sofia lying beside him when he opens his eyes, he felt happy. And then he was reminded again and his smile turns bitter

He got up from the bed, went down and decided to make the breakfast for today

These past couple of days, living like a normal human before the Fall, while it did not have any benefits for him in terms of power, it brings a great deal of peace in his mind.

He did not forget what he has to do, and he did not forget what he has seen. It is just that even while not forgetting, he could still enjoy the present.

The future while it seems bleak and dark, the present is not. And the present beat the future every time.

He did not want to get lost in what did not happened yet and failed to grasp what is in front of him now.

He and Will did not communicate. If he is not wrong Will must be seeing his teacher to prepare himself.

And he too is preparing himself.

He is trying to make up his mind.

He already sends some of the Shadow Guard to scope the area around Stonehenge. From the report they did not see anything or anyone around it.

They also could not arrive around the Stonehenge area because there is a forest there now and inside the forest there is a dark floating blob creature that guarded the forest.

The more he read the report the more he was confident that the Oracle was there. He did not go out personally but he did use his divine Sense to scan that area from Pandemonium.

He saw nothing. But his Divine Sense did found out something. The Oracle must have some cloaking formation that hides her aura.

Loki would not lie to him and he is confident that tomorrow when he comes there she would still be there.

Loki said she was waiting for him. Since that is the case, he did not have to worry that she would be gone.

He sighed and then he realized that the egg inside the pan is burning.

‘Shit’ he waves his hand and the fire beneath the pan extinguish itself. The egg is burned black.

‘Hais.’ he sighed. And then he turned his hand to the left like he was turning a knob. Then the egg slowly reverted to a state before it gets burned.

‘Okay, that is done’

Azief fuses the Time Law to make sure he got the perfect egg. If anyone knows he uses such Law to make sure that his food is not burned, they would felt that it is truly extravagant.

It is like using a cannon to kill a mosquito. It is overkilled.

And no one would expect such a serious person like Death Monarch would waste his energy for doing such a pointless thing

As he finished making the most perfect fried egg, he heard footstep coming down from the second floor.

Azief only smiles as he brought out the rice from the cooker.

He put it on the plate and then continue cooking a few more ingredients. As he was cooking, Sofia had already arrived inside the kitchen.

She did not wear her normal warrior outfit. Instead she wears a crop top with blue skinny jean. Her long hair flows below her shoulder, smelling fragrant and refreshing after she took a bath.

Her face seems to shine like a flawless jade

The moment she enters the kitchen she smiles. It has been a long time since she felt this happy and it has bene a long time since she smiles like this

Looking at Azief, who the world thought was a cold person cooking for her, she felt like she was really home

This two story house is just a house. When there is someone she loves in here, only then I could be called a home.

With him, she felt that she had her happy ending. As long as they are together, that is a happy ending

She slowly came from behind him and then she wraps her arms around Azief stomach. She smiles and pinch his stomach and said

‘Tough and full for muscle’ she whispers inside his ears. Azief laugh

‘You smell good’ he said and she reply

‘I always smell good’ Sofia put her chin on Azief shoulder, looking at him heating up the ingredients.

‘It smell good’

Azief only smiles and he said to her

‘Sit down firs. I only need to heat it up and then we could eat together’

‘I’ll make the coffee’ Azief only nodded.

She releases her hand and then she went to the other side of the kitchen to make the coffee. Finished she put one of the cup near Azief and kiss his cheek.

Azief then said

‘It is almost finished’

‘Eun’ she replied cutely.

She sat down at the kitchen table as Azief brought up all the ingredients to the table.

Putting it down, he then also sat down on the chair. They sit across each other

Today the dish that Azief had made is none other than the famous nasi lemak. He used to eat it a lot before the Fall. Since then, he rarely eats and he rarely eats this dish anymore.

There are the anchovies, the peanut with fried egg and boiled egg with a few cucumber slices and sambal.

From a person like Azief and Sofi they did not need to eat. They could last hundreds of years without eating or drinking.

But for some reason, while eating did not add anything to their bodies, they still felt it a habit to eat.

Unless you are a Pillar Forming or Orb Condensing Stage, you could dispense with eating entirely since the energy of the world would provide energy

And from what he had heard, there is an emergence of people eating again. It all started with a roaming cook who had the chef class

Azief heard this story from Sofia. There is a roaming cook in the world, who wander all over the world catching beast and monster and making them ingredient into his cooking

Reputedly the cooking he made could help in strengthening one foundation and even repairing any flaws in one Disk and strengthening one Pillar.

Maybe someday his cooking could also help people in the Energy Disperse Stage and Disk Formation leveler. It also helps that the food is very delicious.

There are many benefits to eating the cooking of this roaming chef. Azief had also heard from Sofia, that his Centre palace had once try to recruit this roaming cook to enter Pandemonium.

It amused him. In this world who doesn’t know that Pandemonium did not ask people to come, but people come to Pandemonium regardless.

This is probably the first time that Pandemonium itself invites a person to come and even offer an escort to invite the cook into Pandemonium

It is not Loki ideas but the ideas of the officials in the court.

They wanted the cook to cook for them during banquets or feast that is held on the Centre palace.

Since the officials did not really wander the world and strengthen themselves many of the officials in the Centre Palace had only Orb Condensing stage level.

It is why when the Three Great generals argue with the officials of the court, their momentum would always disappear.

It is like a sheep trying to bleat in front of a tiger who could shut the bleating of a thousand sheep with one roar.

Anyway, the cook however rejected the offer. When asked why, the cook replied that he wanted to roam the word to find what he called the Golden Meal.

Azief even though he had never met the man, he was amused by the thought of that cook.

When he reads the report of why he rejected the offer, other than trying to create the Golden Meal, the cook also said he wanted to be the God of Cooking and he would traverse the Universe to search ingredient for his food.

Azief do not know whether that cook is joking or he really wanted to be God of cooking, hunting wild beast all across the Universe to create his Golden Meal.

But as there is ten of thousands of ways of reaching the apex, who is to say that the path that this cook had chosen for himself is wrong?
