Lord Shadow

The reason why there is a whirlpool in the seas is simple.

The tectonic plate beneath the ocean bed came apart forming a huge gap in the bottom, boiling magma poured out but extinguished by the massive amount of water which then rushed down to the abyss

It went down so quickly that the overall water level fell in matters of seconds.

She thought to herself that if Death Monarch did not use his power to calm down the disaster all over the world, then the casualties and the disaster would be even worse.

Fortunately, that the world expansion did not only affect Earth.

If Earth is the only planet that expanded and growing larger with the others did not, then what would happen would be that one day.

It would not be an impossibility for Earth to collide with the Moon and the other planets in the solar system before finally being attracted by the gravitational field of the sun and colliding with the sun itself.

The matter is still not confirmed yet but Jean had told her that the other planet also seems to experience the same thing.

It seems there is a balance. Like a perfect balance that manage to make sure that the transformation of Earth would not destroy it in the process.

So, even though Earth had become probably then thousand times bigger with each continent would take not days, but decades of time if one tries to walk form one continent to the other it was like nothing had changed other than the increase in energies and all kinds of new laws

The distance between the Sun and Earth is still the same.

The ration of their size is still the same.

And the power of the gravitational field between them adjusted to this change in a miraculous event with no demerit for earth itself.

Today, there is a tragedy. But this Multiversal Convergence event would benefit the Earth for decades to come.

She did not know how to feel about it. Especially knowing that the one responsible for all of this is her liege. And she also did not know why The Trickster would take the blame.

Those two relationship is quite complicated, she thought to herself.

For a few seconds both of them did not say anything to each other. Sasha was thinking about all of this matter and Lukas also has his own thoughts

The roaring thunder cracks in the sky and it brought Sasha out of her mind and she then look toward Lukas.

She then said with a nonchalant tone

‘Did anyone from the outside trying to contact you?’

Lukas was not surprised with Sasha question but he does raise his eyebrows. Then a smile blooms on his face.

He did not answer the question immediately. He took a bit of time as the only sound around them is the sound of their footsteps.

The Keeper of the Palace and the Shadow Guard is very alike.

They both only serve one master. And they best not forget it.

Other people could give them benefit. But once they take that benefit and betray their master, then there would only bad ending for them

Thus, both Sasha and Lukas knows very much who they should be loyal to and who should they listen to.

And maybe because of that, the cooperation between the palace and the Shadow Guard is very tightly knitted.

That doesn’t mean that they did not have their own conflict and differences of opinion. But, at this moment, both of them is very united

Of course, the little clash in front of the door of the throne room is real and not fake. But, they know the real enemy

And Sasha knows that too.

Lukas then sighed and he just nodded. Sasha click her tongue.

‘Is it the Central Government? Or the military?’ Sasha asked

‘Central Government. As for the military, it might be only because they are not here. As long as Wang Jian holds power over the military, I am not too worried about them. Though, the people that he entrusted in the Central Government might not be as trustworthy’ Lukas reply.

Sasha nodded.

Lukas only smiles.

There is no one that knows how complicated and tangled the relationship between the politicians, ministers and the military inside the court other than someone who is always inside the court.

Pandemonium way of ruling could be seen to be in disorder.

But, there is also an order to it.

At times, it appears like a Republic. At other times, it appears like a stratocracy. At others times, it appears like an absolute monarchy.

But it is quite hard to pin down what path Pandemonium is walking in.

The minister debates matter of Pandemonium and sometimes execute orders to safeguard the continent.

At times like this, when the Central Court takes control, it appears like a Republic. Because even in the politician and ministers side of the court, there is factions.

They would ask for majority vote and then when the majority is in agreement, they would execute the order.

This was evident during the time of Death Monarch absence and the presence of the military was spread out during the expedition outside of Pandemonium.

At that time, the official factions gain the court.

But when the matter between the military and the official faction reach to a head, and the military people that is already in the court begins exerting some pressure, the direction of Pandemonium was hold by the military people.

The budgets were diverted to military research and military advancement.

Study of formation, building of superweapon was all directed during the brief period of time where the military faction rules the court.

The economic research that is being headed by the Ministry of Finance was halted as the military take the resources to quickly strengthen the recruits of the army, diverting most of it toward technology that would have practical purpose in war and in the battlefield.

In this period, formation master, array master, any profession related to formation arrays rises up as one of the focus of the military department was the protection formation and also the application to it toward the army

Hence, Wang Jian who were already a powerful general with keen grasp of formation become even more powerful.

A thousand Orb Condensing leveler would not be able to kill ten Energy Disperse Stage leveler.

That is how it was.

But if one is in an army like Wang Jian, having one thousand Orb Condensing leveler added with military formation that seems to be able to raise the energy of the soldiers to the peak of their potential, these thousand soldiers could kill ten or even more Energy Disperse Stage leveler.

Wang Jian ambition was to create a force that could theoretically bridge the gap between the low level soldiers and the high level individuals.

This is his path.

Conquering with military might!

Wang Jian even studied Death Monarch.

As Death Monarch is the strongest human in the world, Wang Jian wanted to also create countermeasures if someone as powerful as Death Monarch were to attack Pandemonium.

As such during the time the military hold power, the court is full with military men and almost all of the resources of Pandemonium were directed to most of the military.

Other than World Government, Pandemonium possess one of the largest army.

Of course if compared to the army before the Fall, in numbers, Wang Jian could not beat those numbers.

But what he could be proud of was that the soldiers that follows him into war were all high quality soldiers.

He had a lot of Seed Forming officers and even larger pool of Energy Disperse Stage captains.

if the forces of the world before the Fall were to try their mettle against Wang Jian army, they would easily be destroyed, regardless of their number.

Wang Jian holds the military, and as for the officials, it is Haziq and Anatoli.

The clash between the military and the court officials is a frequent conflict that happen in the court.

Most of the time, Death Monarch, the paramount ruler of Pandemonium looks at all of this with one eye closed

When one goes too far, he would then step out. He would reprimand one side, scolded the others and he would either take the middle way or goes to the extreme.

Because of this ambiguity of the administration of Pandemonium, there is this certain sense of disorder.

Yet, at the same time, the people of Pandemonium itself rarely were the victim of the games of the high lords and ladies.

Simply, because there is a rule.

There is a line that one must not cross in Pandemonium

You could battle in secrets, employ intrigues and schemes, plotted against your political enemies, but never, never ever should the officials and the members of the Pandemonium court should involve the people who do not play the game of power into it.

Do not drag innocent people into the filth.

Of all the many other rules of conduct between the officials of the court, and the influential people in the military, this is one of the rules that they would never ever dare break.

Because doing so would make you the target of Death Monarch. And being a target of Death Monarch on Pandemonium, is not a good thing
