Lord Shadow

Chapter 940: Earthshaker heart (1)

If its before the Fall, trying to know someone true personality is hard. But after the Fall, after reaching such level, you could feel a certain feeling on some people.

When one in the same level, it is hard to know one temperament and personality as one would be enshrouded with one ability.

For example, Hikigaya and Jean would find it hard to predict Azief movement and his action, as their premonition and their feeling toward him could never be trusted fully because of the fact that Azief himself is stronger than them both.

But if Azief was weaker than them, their premonition, their perception of him could easily be created by trusting their instinct.

Instinct for beings like them is very important. It is not some illogical feeling that is borne out of one’s heart.

Instinct for high level beings like them is a hint from the forces of the world.

Fate, destiny, time, space, the emotions and desires, these intangible things that one could not see and touch would guide higher level beings in searching for opportunity or evade calamities.

Then Azief said.

‘The other thing I want you to do is to look after Sofia’

Raymond look at Azief like he couldn’t believe what he just heard.

Azief did not care as he continues

‘I fear I would have many more enemies that would target her. She is strong. But she is not yet strong enough if she had to face hundreds of disk Formation leveler alone’

Raymond understand where Azief worries comes from

‘You worried that the world would see her as your weakness?’ Azief smiles bitterly as he paused for a moment

Sighing he reply

‘She is my weakness’

And Raymond sighed. He could understand.

Because, today, people could see what is truly important to Death Monarch. And the most efficient to deal with him

Not everyone would dare do it. But cornered beast would always concoct the craziest plan.

There is never any guarantee that none of the enemies that Death Monarch have are sane

Today, while the whole world saw how powerful Death Monarch really is, they also saw that Death Monarch Azief does have weaknesses.

And this weakness could be manipulated when Death Monarch is not here on Earth. As long as they planned it well enough, there would always be a chance for them to win.

It is clear to anyone else and the leaders of the Great power that Azief would not hesitate to walk into a trap if the bait is good enough.

Nobody wanted to target Death Monarch loved ones before. Well, it is not that didn’t try. Will. Sofia had once been captive of the World Government before.

And Death Monarch at any occasion where his loved ones were used as bait, he always pays back double fold.

He had split open the Island of Peace before, mess it up in the second time, nearly killed Sasha when she kidnapped Sina and wage war against the World Government because of Will.

Each of his action and his cruel methods that he employed against his enemies were to warn the others.

“this is what will happen to you if you use family against him”

And after enough beating, even the World Government does not dare to cross that line. It is good enough that Death Monarch did not massacre them all when he could

They understood now.

As long as they did not cross that line, Death Monarch could still be reasonable. But once they cross it, Death Monarch even if he wanted to be reasonable, he would not.

Kill the chicken to warn the monkey. That is his method when dealing with people who try to target his people

And it worked like a charm

Since then, even though there is many enemies of Pandemonium and Death Monarch, they rarely targeted Azief inner circle.

There is also the fact that the ones Azief consider his inner circle and people who is close to him were all heroes and heroines of the generation

But, after today, who knows. The world is now large enough and have many islands and fortune lands that could hide from even the Divine Sense of Divine Comprehension leveler.

Azief might be able to envelop his Divine Sense to cover the whole world, but even he must admit that as the energy seep deeps into the world, there would emerge many more anomaly that could not be explained and there are some lands that even Azief himself could not scan and went out the sight of his gaze

Sofia might be powerful.

But in the end, she is still not the strongest.

Her bow is powerful. But if people find a way to seal her bow and attack her in that moment, there is no doubt that Sofia could still be taken away.

World Powers like the Great Powers would not use such crude method.

After all, even though some of these Great powers is not as influential or as powerful as Pandemonium, they are still after all a behemoth in the world, possessing great influence over the lives of the people of the world.

They would not be so stupid to cross that line after the lesson that World Government had learned.

But the same could not be said for people who did not care about anything.

What if there is some people who did not mind to die? What if there is people who did not care about the consequences?

People who wanted to hurt Death Monarch regardless of the cost. Many people would despair when confronted with almost an invincible being like Death Monarch

On Earth, this fact is recognized by everyone.

The strongest person in the world is also someone that all people in the world had regarded as invincible.

As such when trying to kill such a being, there is no other conclusion than death and failure.

But, even an invincible being like Azief could be hurt.

To someone who holds a deep grudge against Death Monarch, someone who did not care that whether he or she would die would probably think since they could not hurt Death Monarch directly, they could do it indirectly.

And such, that limits the target.

Sina is Death Monarch closest friends. But, the probability of her being targeted would not be as high as people who would target Sofia.

Because while hurting Sina and killing her would hurt Death Monarch, when compared to Sofia who is his lover, one could easily see the difference the hurt that could be inflicted to Death Monarch if they instead killed Sofia

Loki on the other hand is formidable by himself and he himself is so cunning that the Trickster title was added to his name.

But Sofia the Divine Archer while she is a great combatant, is not someone that is impossible to defeat

Katarina is a Disk Formation leveler, she is protected by the protection formation of the Senate, her brother is the Beast Master and have a horde of monsters that he could control and she had an army.

And she is also referred to as the strongest woman in the world. Targeting her is as hard as targeting Death Monarch himself.

Sofia might be a lone archer but her bow is very powerful and she is very adept in using he bow. She could fight an army alone with her bow which boasted large area of attack effect.

And she is also protected by Death Monarch.

Today, Katarina were only captured because the Demon King ability far surpassed her and she was far away from any of the condition that usually protects her.

But, Azief recognize one problem. His enemies would always try to target his loved ones in the past

The only reason they did not do it now was because they were cowed into fear by his strength and his reputation.

And his people had also improved that Azief could put down some of his worries.

Now, however the situation had changed.

When he does go to the Seresian world, he is not sure whether he could survive it.

And even if he could survive it, if there is something wrong that happens there and he was stuck there for years, who knows what would happen to his other loved ones?

He could not handle the uncertainty. He could not help but setting up certain countermeasures before he goes.

Now, he is even more detailed in planning than Loki.

He has Plan C and Plan D to make sure that if one plan falls apart, there is another backup plan that would make sure the safety of these people even if he took a little bit of time getting back home.

Sina would help Sofia that is something that Azief did not have to worry about. That is already inside his calculation

His other three Generals and Sasha would also render aid.

But if he left, there is always a chance something wrong could happen. Before, these people could always rely on him if something goes wrong.

On Earth, even if the sky falls down, he could hold them up for them.
