Lord Shadow



The realization hit him like a sledgehammer

It doesn't matter if he is more cautious and try not to become like that person he saw in the vision.

"It didn't matter at all" he mutters to himself. 

"I started from the wrong assumption. I was wrong from even the first step. No wonder I could only make more mistake after that" 

Azief thought to himself. 

When he sees the future, he sees himself killing so many people.

His eyes were heartless and his heart seems even colder than stone. 

He did not understand why he become like that. 

That no matter how evil he become in the future, how could he be that evil. 

He laid awake at night sometimes asking himself that question

Asking himself how could he become like that?

He did not understand it. 

Did someone betray him and so he become like that? 

Did he lose someone dear to him and become evil? 

Did he become arrogant and then view life as nothing? 

He started from these assumptions. And all kind of question arises from this thought. And these questions are unceasing

And fear and uncertainty, anxiousness begins to creep in his heart. Azief is not a good man. But one thing is true. Is that he tries his best to do the right thing.

Seeing him in the future like that...it gives him nightmare. 

From that day on, all he could do is ask question. But the only one who could answer it is his future self

So, the only one he could ask, is to ask himself.

 And since seeing that future he was always on guard. 

His decision to split the world power, to split the world, gives strength to some of the world power stems from this fear

He fears that with absolute power, he would be corrupt absolutely. 

So, he wanted to prop up someone who could rival him. 

This is why he did not mind giving the trident to Raymond. 

This is why he let some of the world power attempt of strengthening themselves go. 

Because he fears that if he goes crazy one day, no one would be able to stop him

He now understood some of things he did not understand before. He understands now the fear that he elicited on the world. 

It is not good for the heart living in a world where there is a person who could not be bound by any human law, who could not be defeated and could not be constrained.

Azief never think of that matter that much because for most of the time he was the target of such effort to constrain him

It wasn't until he could see what he could become in the future, that he even began to fear himself. 

And that is when he truly understood the kind of fear that people feel for his own existence. 

lightsΝοvel But at this moment, seeing what happens to the King of Etherna, like a flash of insight, he finally understands what happened. 

"I started on the wrong assumption" he mutters again.

And now he understands his mistake

It did not matter how much he guarded himself, how much he controls his emotion. Because in the end, that person Azief saw in the future….is not him. 

It wears his face, it has his appearance, but it was not him. That eye was not him. And the ones that he killed, is not killed by him

"In the future, I will be possessed by the Destroyer?" 

The moment this vision shows itself to him, Azief finally understood the future he saw. 

And then he remembers some lore about the Destroyer. 

The Destroyer itself did not have physical bodies in many of the ancient lore that dares spoke about him. 

Only when it needs toa appear to beings that he appears in solid physical bodies. And that is only so that the living being is not instantly destroyed when looking at Him

When something as Divine as the Destroyer take upon a solid form, at least a form of existence that the mortal mind could understand, it limits the power of the Destroyer.

And it precisely this limitation that enables the Destroyer to appear without instantly melting the minds of whoever seeing him

In a physical form, his for lack of a better word, destructiveness is controlled

Without a physical from that mortal mind could not understand, his destruction would be a total destruction without control.

The Destroyer and the Creator is basically a part of the Supreme One. And those who sees the Supreme One in his true form, could not help but explode or melted just by the act of seeing the Supreme One

Because one could not comprehend something that is unimageable. How could you imagine something that is basically unimageable? 

That alone is paradox in itself. 

Two-dimension character for example could only do the things that the three-dimensional character program them to do.

As for the Supreme One, he is unimaginable because imagination comes from the human mind and even though humans mind think that imagination is limitless, it is not. 

Because there is always something one could not imagine

But the Supreme One is a being that is unimaginable because the limit of imagination has been set by him.

And that is why those who saw Him in His true form, rarely survive from such meeting. 

However, there is some lore that in some places you could see the true face of the Supreme One and see the truth of Everything. These places are divine places and in only such places where you could see His face and not being harm by His divinity

But other than that, if you see his true face not in those special places, you're screwed. 

Something so holy, something so incomprehensible, something so unimaginable that seeing it would cause whoever seeing it to explode.

And the Destroyer and the Creator is a part of the Supreme One. Mainly, the part of Destruction and Creation. 

They might not act like the Supreme Oen but they are the Supreme One in a sense of the word. 

The Creator mostly appears in front of living being in physical form and he is mostly revered in many worlds, dimensions and realities. 

But the Destroyer rarely appears. No one wished him toa appear. Because when He appears that means it's Judgment Day for that world. 

The lore said that Destroyer is not a being of physical bodies. He came in many forms. The destruction of heart, of minds of souls did not require a physical body. 

Sometimes He proclaimed judgment day and like a wind he swept and when the wind swept, worlds ended. 

But sometimes in special circumstances the Destroyer will come to a world to see. 

To judge. 

But if he appears in his Divine Form, then His appearance alone would disintegrate worlds

So, in some lore it is said that when the Destroyer needs to come down, he would take a vessel.

A body. 

A destined person that could sync with Him

A vessel that he could use to move. 

Only in this way, he could descend onto world without destroying it. 

The Destroyer itself is not some kind of evil being. 

He is the operation of the Omniverse. 

He is Destruction.

 He is entropy, he is Death. 

He is the counterbalance to wild life that keep spreading. 

Good and evil…..that is not what the Creator and the Destroyer represent. 

They are a part of the Universe, of every Universe.

 It is really hard to judge their actions when you could not understand the vantage point that they are sitting at.

Azief was stunned. 

Because now he understand it. 

He wanted to see more. 

There is still so many things he wanted to see

He wanted to see how would the ten rings changes owner? 

Maybe if he knows more about the origin of that ring, there would be more things he could understand about the ring and in turn help him master the ring even faster

And then he could see that the Creator is speaking to the Destroyer. But he could not hear what the Creator is saying. 

The Destroyer also seems to speak but the words they say to each other could not be heard. 

And then Azief felt that feeling again. 

The feeling of being pulled. And he could see that the surrounding area become even more blurry and there is this fog that is slowly enveloping the area 

Azief could not help but sigh

"Thank you" Azief mutters. 

This thank you is for Borgan

The ten rings origin is already a huge help for him. He knows that from now on if he wanted to master the Ten rings, he need to understand the ten souls in the ring. 

As long as he could understand it, as long as he could bond with it, he could probably use all of their powers without restraint. 

And if he could do that, there is probably not many beings in the Omniverse that could rival him. 

After all, the current era is no longer the era where the Etherna existed, Etherna itself is probably the peak creation as they could even fight against the Destroyer and the Creator and won. 

So, Azief is really thankful that such opportunity to master such an artefact was given to him. 

Of course, Azief is not a naïve idealist. 

He knows that by showing that to him, Borgan also expect something from him. 

And Azief expect no less. 

He knows the truth of the world that you have to repay things like this. 

Especially when there is such a huge karma, huge cause and effect between him and Borgan that has been formed since the moment she shows him the vision

"You give me all this hoping that I would pay it off someday. I don't know what your endgame is. But you helped me. Regardless of your intention, your plans, you benefited me. So, if I can, someday I would repay you" Azief mutters to the nothingness
