Chapter 1487 Art Of Patience

Asha clenched her fists and her eyes shook before she loosened them with a sigh.

"It's been too long. I can only know if she uses significant power." With a swipe in the air, a fluctuating green mark emerged out of her palm and floated to the old man.

Recalling the bright expression of the young lady who called her 'master' even though she didn't teach her anything, Asha felt her insides twist.

Isadora became her disciple only out formality. Looking back, she was subtly influenced by Keeper Equilius.

He mentioned her in a conversation, took her to a special place in Pala Kingdom where an apparently extinct species was sighted that just happened to be visited by Isadora.

Yet, the master-disciple had a good relationship until the end.

Perhaps it was less from Isadora's side as she rarely visited. It wasn't her fault as Asha was almost always in secluded training to hit the next realm.

And then the war started.

Thinking back, Keeper Equilius also visited a few months prior and praised Isadora's achievements in the war so far.

But he also made sure to mention how she's being targetted by the Jai Empire.

So, even though it took away nearly a hundred years of her penace, she poured a her power into Isadora and gave her a life saving measure.

A divine-rank trump card!

Coincidentally, Princess Eshala targetted Isdaora and almost killed her. It was only thanks to her power that the discipline survived.

The divine power was exhausted but it had left a trace. Even though it's been five centuries by now and even that trace would be on the verge of being erased, as long as Isadora could use a bit of power, that power could absorb a bit of it and act like a position marker.

The 'bit' of power here was at the peak of rank 8 or ideally, rank 9.

This was supposed to be a measure by Asha to save Isadora in case she got into trouble.

She did try when Isdaora was apparently killed in the war but the mark showed no reaction.

What's certain, however was that Isadora was alive. In a very, very weakened state since the mark barely worked, but certainly alive.

Asha could vaguely sense that Isadora had recovered recently. But she concluded that her disciple would probably never reach her former peak.

Still, she wanted her to live in peace and spoke no word of her existence to anyone. And she's in seclusion anyway, not really caring about the outside world.

"Thank you, thank you very much." Keeper Equilius smiled, his eyes glowing with a dangerous light.

Asha lowered her head.

Everything changed now.

What a pathetic master she was. Not only did she not teach her disciple anything, she even sold her out.

"Please go out now." She said in a tired voice.

She did it, Icarus. She found the slivers.

Now all that's left is to take them for her."

Icarus clenched his fist, his blood pumping at those words. "Yes. It's time. Nexus...should raise its head again. We are not their lackeys. Those two-faced bastards will face their due."

Equilius shook his head. "Do not let your emotions rule over you. Everything should be done with patience."

From his part, he had indeed been incredibly patient.

Not only did he propose the God Creation plan to create a perfect hybrid as a vessel for the Immortal, he also leaked it to the God Emperor at the right time.

Maybe the God Emperor always knew. Or maybe he didn't.

Equilius had no way of knowing even after so long.

But after the God Emperor attacked and demolished the lab facility, he sent away the perfect hybrid who he retrieved just before the attack.

An infant Isadora, no matter how high her affinity with darkness was, could not survive the space-time cracks she was thrown into.

But the space-cracks were created by Jai Emperor's power, even though it was just an aftermath.

In the face of the God Emperor's power, no matter how scattered, all Equilius could do was protect Isadora, not track her.

It created a fear in the corner of his mind that perhaps God Emperor did know his intentions and acted anyway, but he didn't want the perfect hybrid to be tracked.

Or did the God Emperor have his own plan?

Regardless, Equilius waited until for a few hundred years until Isadora really grew up.

And now, he's ready to reap benefits.

Varian was one of the suspects for holding slivers. But he wasn't so sure.

How could Isadora leave the slivers to someone else? He wouldn't. Neither would any rational powerhouse.

But he wanted to inspect Varian anyway.

Enigma, however, was essential. Kidnapping her, Isadora could be drawn out.

And with her, the slivers.

Even though the absolutely incompetent Kong failed in such a simple task, Equilius was a man of patience.

Approaching Asha was a backup plan, a seed that he sowed all those years ago during the war.

And now, it's about to bear fruit.

"Icarus, Isadora holds the slivers. You have to get her...before the Immortal."
