Lord Shadow

At the same time, Azief also see some changes on him.

Azief also had seen that there is no longer that string around him and he could feel his fortune come flooding in.

Now, he is more confident to go to the Seresian world. he had pay the Price and he is now free from that obligation.

The sky become calm and the thunder and lightning that had appeared before disappeared like it was just a dream.

The entire island seems to be in peace and without change. Life force once again fills the island and energy around the island also regained its calm

Azief then look at Erika and said

‘I hope I would never see you again’ He did not say it because he is angry.

He is not saying it because he was annoyed at her. Maybe he is saying it because he had seen something

Right now, even though Azief did not have the full legacy of a clairvoyant, he now had certain abilities of seeing the future.

Loki of the future timeline once said something to the God of death

Azief then said something and Loki ask how did he know. Azief then reply by saying he could see the future.

This once happen during the time Loki was imprisoned by Raymond and Sofia and Azief then come to break him out of that prison.

That sentence was not a lie and this is the origin story of how he acquires the ability to see the future.

Erika then said, like she finally remembers something.

‘Jean left you a message’

Azief frowned. He was ready to go away but then he halted his step.

‘What is the message?’

‘He said to not see more than you should’

Hearing this Azief laughed

‘I already seen everything that should be seen and more’ Erika laughed and then she said the rest of the message

‘He also hoped that you would protect the Republic from outside enemies’ Azief was silent for a while and then Erika continues

‘As you already know, he would be occupied at the Hill, maintaining the Time Dilation of the vortex leading to the Seresian world. The Republic lacks a powerful presence to deter those with evil intention. Katarina is not there and even Jean is not there. Boris is powerful…. but he isn’t Jean’

Azief nodded

‘I could do this for him. I guess his message is very simple. He could just have talk to me’

‘He fears that if he is the one saying this, you would not pay too much attention to his words’

Azief did not say anything. It is true that while he might grant Jean wishes, he would not be too pleased.

After all, even if the fault is not Jean, there is still his anger of trying to blame it in Jean. But Jean had also underestimated him

Azief had grown from that temperamental person he is six years ago. Of course, he is still temperamental at certain times, but one could say he had improved.

He would not truly blame Jean for something he couldn’t control.

It is not him being mellow. It is him being reasonable. He is very good at it now….at being reasonable to reasonable people.

He only sighed and said

‘I owe Jean for this matter. Someday, I would help him.’

And the moment he said this another vision enter his mind.

The vision was brief and it was only glimpse but there in his vision, he saw Jean screaming at the sky.

For some reason, he felt that Jean was screaming at him.

he was kneeling on the ground; a woman is on his lap as he shouted to the sky. A purplish green aura shrouded Jean

That is the image he saw before the image turns blurry. Azief then sighed inwardly as he is now back to where he is.

Is this how things are going to be?

All kinds of vision would swarm his mind in random moments? He thought to himself.

He sighed.

Erika saw that Azief stop for a few second and she could somehow guess why. She only smiles. Then Azief look again at Erika and simply repeated the words he had said before

‘I really wish we not meet again later.’ Erika chuckles and then said.

‘As you know, someday we will meet again’ Azief did not reply and he said

‘I pay the Price. I owe you nothing now.’

The Oracle nodded. But then with a sly smile she said

‘Don’t be too sure about that. Hehehe’ she laughed

Azief smiles bitterly as he could still feel the pain in his left eye. From now on, this eye would connect him with Erika at all times

And suddenly certain things that he had saw in the future suddenly make sense.

Clairvoyant that have accessed the Will of Brogan is connected.

And this also applies to one past self and one future self. Now, it is not so puzzling why Erika knows so much about him

Clairvoyants did not view time as same as other people. No one could understand that as long as they did not walk in their shoes.

Their perspectives about time is quite different than other people.

Of course this also makes them hard to relate to and cases where clairvoyants went crazy is a norm and not a rarity

If everything has a Price, then the price of seeing the future is probably one of the steepest.

And Azief is slowly understanding that

Azief had nothing else to talk about. And he is not exactly in the best mood. His eye is itchy and he still needs to familiarize himself with this new eye

Since he had already got it, Azief would try to make it as part of his power. He also notices that his mastery over Time become even more powerful and easier

It could be confirmed now that the eye of an Oracle could boots power related to time. There are blessings, and there is also burdens, he thought to himself

He sighed for a second as he looks to one direction. His gaze pierce through space and it locked into a figure of a woman

He saw Sofia in that island.

He sighed again but he had decided he would not go there.

‘Why are you doing this? Are you that unconfident? I know where my heart is. But, I wonder where your heart is?’ he thought to himself

There is no doubt that he loves Katarina. He might not say it, he might not confess it, but his heart knows.

As for Sofia? He loved her too. And he chose her. But, for some reason, she always doubts it. He chose her. That had to at least mean something.

The more Sofia doing thing like this, the more he felt guilty. And the more he felt like this, the more he became confused.

When the feeling of guilt overweighs the love he felt, then what would be the reason for him staying with her?

Is it guilt? Or is it love? Katarina also do this. And she also does this. Then what should he do? He could not retreat but he also could not move forward.

He always wanted to make a choice that would not hurt anybody. But, whatever choice he made, it would hurt them. And hurting them, hurts him.

He could only sigh. Sofia doing this….is it to protest? Is it to surrender? Or is it a precursor to an ultimatum.

If it is to protest, then they would only have a fight. It would not be the first fight and it would not be the last.

Azief welcome fight. As long as they fight together and solve it together. He didn’t mind it. Couple fights. That is normal.

Trying to appease each other, hoping for one not to leave with method of appeasement, that is not normal.

If it’s to surrender, then Azief would not believe it. Sofia would never accept to be a second woman.

What Azief fears was that, if he goes to that island, Sofia would want to give him an ultimatum.

He knows Sofia.

When she is determined to do something, or to be more accurate when she is determined to do something that she know would hurt him, she would first do things that would made him happy.

He fears she would ask him to choose.

And if he was asked to choose, he would choose to go. And Sofia knows that. She wanted to ask because she wanted him to answer like that.

She wanted him to go. So, she could leave him. Those who are not in the position of Sofia would not understand. Those who did not live her life would not understand

She would think she is doing the right thing for her. And for him. She made the choices for him like he had wanted to make a choice for her.

Because he knows this…. he did not want to come to that island.

There would be a conversation he did not want to engage in if he goes toward that hill right now

Time…. that is what he is lacking right now.

He then turns to leave and Erika. He looks at her with a long glance. His eyes seem to gleamed with a strange light.

His eyes narrowed. Erika look at him and she smiles. She knows what Azief try to do just a second ago.

She smiles because she knows he did not succeed. Azief sighed. But he did not say anything as he seems to turn blurry and then before Erika eyes, he disappears as gently as the blowing wind.

The wind of the seas blows over, and only the sound of nature could be heard all around. Erika smile slowly falters as she mutters

‘You could no longer see me’ she said and there is a confidence in her tone as she looks at the sky above him.

The Heavens does not seem that terrifying to her now. She had sacrificed her eye. And now the Heaven is blind.

Even Jean would not have expected this. Knowing this, Erika then laughed

‘Hahahaha’
