Chapter 1083: The bad ones

Sofia has been alone in this island for two days. 

But time in this island is quite weird. 

Because of the phenomenon of time acceleration and time reversal around this island, even though only four days had passed in the real world, Sofia felt it had been quite some time for her. 

Sina was with her for a few days, accompanying her

But then she had to settle something in Pandemonium. When they were here, they talk about many things

And of course, they touched upon Loki. Sina does not seems surprised. And Sofia also found out that Loki broke up with Sina.

Though, Sina doesn't seem that upset. When she asked why she is not sad, the answer that Sina gave her made her dumbfounded

She said

"this is not the first time and this is surely not the last' As for the reason why Loki broke up with her, she very much understands. 

Sina told her that her relationship with Loki is very calm. They were not as passionate as her and Azief.

But she said, there is all kind of love. Not all love had to burn so brightly it consumes them. Her love with Loki is like the calm water.

They understand each other and they trusted each other implicitly. The reason Loki broke up with her is not because he did not love her and it is not some sappy love story reason.

It is for practical reason 

Loki did it so that the world would not transfer the hate they have for him to her. He was always thorough.

And she, as his girlfriend would cooperate. Sofia did ask her whether Loki met her after the matter ended

But Sina told her that they did not meet each other after that matter. Sina understood that the moment Loki decided to cut her off, he would truly cut her off.

She was also sure that Loki would never response to any threat that one would point towards her. 

Because once Loki succumb to any of these threats, he would prove that Sina is important to him. 

And acknowledging that, she would then become a liability.

It is because she knows this that she understood the step taken by Loki and did not complain

Sometimes Sofia envy that. How easily it is for them to understand each other. With Azief it is very hard.

But Loki is not the reason she had to return back to Pandemonium.

Pandemonium court is in chaos right now. If not handled carefully, there would be another clash between the military officials and the court officials.

Without her, the military faction is running the court and some of the officials of Pandemonium went to pick her up in a mini sized Battlestar.

Sina could be considered a very influential senior official of the court. That is how most of the officials of the court treated her.

With her there backing the officials of the court, Wang Jian, Freya and Athena could not throw their weight around. 

After all, even though those three controls the military Sina is after all the friend of their lord. They have to restrain their domineering attitude. 

Though it seems like Sina and the Three Army seems in conflict with each other, in reality this is not so. At times, Sina even approve some of Wang Jian methods.

But after all, the officials are the people close to Sina. Some of them are her acolytes and disciple. 

Yes, when one reaches Disk Formation, the system does open up the discipleship system.

Loki had a disciple which is the Heaven Flute Lihua. 

Even Azief had one and that was Somi. 

But unlike Loki and Azief who take disciple not using the system, Sina took disciple using the system. 

As such many of her disciple is not really an alchemist but all kinds of jobs.

With the discipleship system, she could easily transfer the knowledge of alchemy to her disciple. 

And because disciple could not easily betray their master, Sina send them to the court in the early days of the formation of the Pandemonium court. As they were loyal to her and owe her, the Pandemonium court runs very stably in the past.

But it is also because of that, it created factions in the court. 

As such, when the military come back to Pandemonium and Pandemonium is in a state of emergency, the officials of the court fears that the Three Army would use this emergency as a ploy to gain more benefits for their factions.

It is known that Death Monarch would not interfere between the battle of officials of the court. It is only when they touch Death Monarch bottom line, that He would make his move.

It is for that reason the officials even came to invite Sina in a spaceship with all the high tech protection measures.

That is how widely regarded Sina is in the Pandemonium court.

Even though it is called a mini size Battlestar, that is just relative to the real size of a Battlestar.

However, that mini Battlestar still could fit half the entire population of Europe in the mini Battlestar. 

Sina while she rarely interferes in the Pandemonium court, her speaking right is quite strong. 

She is one of Death Monarch closest friends, one of the people in his inner circle, and she had a lot of allies all over the world.

She is also rumored to have something with Loki and everyone knows that she is friends with Sasha the leader of the Shadow Guards.

With all of this attached to her, it is no wonder that she alone could balance the situation at the court.

And as for the other people in the island, most of them were recalled back by their respective power. 

All of the great powers send some people to channel some energy toward Time Monarch. 

This is not because they approve the decision of the Republic and Pandemonium decision to keep opening the portal

It is simply as a gesture of respect and not wanting to offend both of these titans. 

Especially when right now, if such a beast or some other invader from some other worlds or other galaxy comes knocking, the only one that probably have enough firepower to force these invaders to get lost from Earth is Divine Comprehension leveler.

Sofia sighed as she leaned her back on the chair. On the table beside her there is a hot coffee, its mist is rising up from the cup.

It is not a normal coffee as it produces mist after being brewed. This mist could give calm of mind and relaxation when it is drunk

She did not know why she is still here. 

No, she does know. 

But she did not want to admit it. 

The wind keeps blowing bringing the scent of sweet scented flowers.

Outside her tent, there is a large maple tree stand tall. It is unlike normal maple tree. It is even more colorful and it reminded her of cheery trees.

She is still here waiting. 

Because she knows he would come here. And she needs to talk to him. the reason did not matter. But, it should still have a reason.

And that is why she is here and not in Pandemonium. That is his place. Not hers. His domain. And she doesn't need to be reminded about certain things.

There are too many memories there.

She does wonder whether that house of her is still there. 

With all the chaos after the expansion of the world, maybe her house is now on top of some mountain. 

Considering that her house is on top of some cliff before, maybe the cliff had become a mountain. 

Or it might be that her house is now in the bottom of some abyss. Her house might have split apart as the land beneath it split apart.

She sighed

'I promise to myself not to do this. Yet, I keep doing it' That small house with the white picket fence, is a special house. It is not as big as a castle and it is not luxurious at all. But the memories shared in that house is very special

And because of that, the house became special. Even though she thinks she could just let it go, when it comes to it, she found herself hesitating and her mind kept lingering

'It is hard letting go' she thought to herself. She shakes her head trying to shake the thought off from her mind

This…. whatever this is between him and her…. she just could not see how they would not crash and burn in the end.

That is tragic and it would be painful. And she thought she could endure it. But maybe she is not as strong as she thinks she is.

And this is the reason she chooses to do this. 

Because then, she would be the bad one. And not him. Because Azief…. that guy would never want to be the bad guy. At least not to her.

Since that is the case, she will take the blame. If its makes it easier for him to be honest, than she would take the blame.
