Chapter 1442 Light And Darkness

Azief look at the USB stick and he could not help but wonder

'It is truly amazing the thing that your people come up with' then he asks

'This is your memory?'

Raymond nodded.

'I'm surprised you let Hirate goes into your mind. Most people wouldn't dare let the Mind Monarch scour through their minds'

Raymond smiles bitterly and said

'We have fought alongside each other for almost a decade. I know, you don't have high opinion of Hirate but he is that bad. He is a little ambitious and very cunning but not all of his action is motivated by benefit. He does have a heart and there is fire in that heart'

Azief then said

'You could only see the good in people'

Raymond sighed and then said

'And you could only see the worse'

There is silence again between them.

The moments passed and they could only watch each other, with complicated feelings they hold against each other.

They met each other before.

And Azief owes Raymond a bit when he helps him during his Heavenly Tribulation in the past. But, the world owes Death Monarch a lot.

And Raymond is a person in the world.

But the entanglements between them is no so easily defined

The previous times they met each other, they spoke mostly business.

And today it is the same. But today, there is a difference. Because they both understand how different they are from each other

Even though Azief had come out of the darkness in his heart, the depression of the past still has a hold on him

He still has a bit of that darkness, and even thought his way of looking at the world is not as bleak as before he is not entirely change.

But there is something that he had realize

while he understood that there is light in this world, he knew how fragile that light was

He sees the darkness that lurks,

And while some are distracted by the light, he understood how dangerous the darkness of the world and how easy it is to snuff the light

And how important it is to protect that light, that fire from going out.

Raymond on the other hand is very different. He sees the light and intend to spread it. He sees the darkness, but he will never acknowledge it

He sees the good in the world and sometimes because of this tendency he sometime fails to see the darkness that lurks beneath the shining blinding light

But, this does not mean he is wrong. Sometimes, his desire for light is so strong, that even the darkness is infected with this light

Darkness infected by the light is no longer darkness. It is a shade of grey and eventually even this shade of grey turns to light

There is no wrong or right in this matter.

There is only different way of looking at the world, different paths they take. But, the way they see the world affect how they deal with something

Most people would adapt according to the different situation but these two people are stubborn men.

Not many words were exchanged, not many personal matters are discussed but from the short conversation, the demeanor of them both, they could tell that they are very different from each other.

Azief sighed and Raymond also sighed.

And Raymond got up and leave the room.

All the question they wanted to ask each other was not asked. Maybe, they both feared the answers that would come out

Azief could only sigh.

And Raymond is the same.

Azief stays in the room, closing his eyes.

'It is very complicated' his mind thought of Sofia.

But, his mouth could never say her name. It should be over…. this story of contradiction between him and Sofia.

Still, he had understood….it will always be there.

There are people who could easily forget their last love and then they are people like Azief.

Sofia meant something to him.

And that is still true.

It hurts and it is painful.

But maybe because it is painful, maybe because it is painful that the memory stands even more.

He shakes his head and said to himself

'Focus on work' he looks at the USB like thing on the table.

He waves his hand and all kinds of formation floated out from the palm of his hand.

These formation is in all kinds of shapes, and there is runes and other symbols and even cuneiform writing inside these floating shapes.

These formations then fill the entire room and then like it latched itself on the floor, the walls and the ceiling

The recording that Raymond gave him is his memory of the fight between him and Kaiju.

It might have some kind of sensitive information.

Even though Azief is quite sure nobody would dare to try to spy on him, he always like to be cautious.

One thing he had learned from his time in all the worlds and other universes, is that nothing is ever certain.

Kaiju alone had shocked him.

Who knows if there is people that could bypass or hide from his Divine Sense. So, he would rather be cautious than regret it later.

The laying down of formation is very short and simple for Azief.

even though his formation knowledge is not as deep or profound like Lee Sangmin, he has the help of the Eternal Rings

The rings also grow stronger with him and there is many more formation that is in the rings that has revealed itself to him.

Azief never had the chance to thoroughly study the ring.

He had been planning to study it in the Seresian world but he was preoccupied with memorizing the knowledge of the Orvanians.

That is not as easy task. Even though he only memorizes and not understanding the concept of the technology, it still takes apportion of his mental strength

'When this is all over…I should seclude myself and made comprehensive check on myself' he mutters to himself

Azief spends a few hours in his study studying the memory and after he is done, he frowned.

'There is a lot to digest' he thought to himself while sighing.

The memory recorded the fight between Raymond and Kaiju. He sees the fighting scene from Raymond perspective.

He could also see Sofia.

'She has improved' he thought to himself

He could see that her arrows are getting stronger and her aura is more condensed than before. But, her realm seems to drop down.

Not that it is a bad thing

Azief could speculate that Sofia is reforging her foundation. So, it would be long time before she would ever reach Divine Comprehension realm

But, her foundation would be sturdy and the quality of her skill would increase. So, Azief did not find anything wrong with it.

The memory recording is very useful since it also captures the feeling of that time. Of course this method of recording also has its weaknesses.

But it is enough for Azief. It is enough for him to understand a bit about this new enemy

Kaiju' he mutters.

He never took this one seriously.

Even if Kaiju somehow win against Raymond, Azief would never give him the time of the day. Because in the end, he is still a Disk Formation leveler.

Those who have never stepped on the Divine Comprehension realm does not understand how different they are from Disk Formation leveler.

Even if Raymond uses all of his power, if it's one on one against any Divine Comprehension leveler, he would die.

Azief himself knows that if not for his perfect foundation and the fact that he is aided with the will of the world and the other people in the world, there was never any chance of him defeating the Demon King when he descended on Earth.

And that Demon King is in the Essence Creation realm.

That is how a Disk Formation looks to him in his eyes

Like he is an Essence Creation leveler and these people are in Divine Comprehension realm. Unless the whole world fight against them, it is truly hard to match a Divine Comprehension realm

That is how insignificant a Disk Formation leveler in Azief eyes.

But, now he has to pay attention

Because Kaiju could now control the ten seas.

And while Azief did not know much about the ten seas, he knows how mystical it is.

Even when he is in Divine Comprehension realm even his Divine Sense is affected by the mystical force in the Turbulent Sea.

He sighed

'Why do these people could not just lay low and stop trying to destroy the world? Couldn't they just take a vacation or something?'

Sometimes even Azief felt a little tired.

He does not want to be entangled in this kind of stuff. He would rather be increasing his understanding of his power and increasing his level.

Sometimes he missed those days when he is fighting against monsters. There is nothing more boring than politics.

But, he could not just get up and leave, wipes his butt off from this. because this time, the problem of the world originated from him

He is the one that must end this cause and effect.

He goes to the window and opens it a little bit wider.

He takes a deep breath, wanting to ease off this frustration in his heart

This office of his face the sea so he could see the ocean and the beach. Right now, all over the city, construction sound could be heard

On the entrance gate, there are all kinds of surveillance devices being erected.

Some of it is high tech technology from the world powers, revealing any disguises in an instant.

There is also Aura Revealer and many of these devices that is embedded in many places.

This time, they would not let themselves get infiltrated.

Arthur is running around the entire island setting up formation. Some of it is to protect the island and some of it is to protect the city

Will is once again running all over the world, running some errand for him. His job is to find Kaiju.

Azief sighed as he looks at the people opening their stalls and began living their life again.

Even though there is some destruction, because of Azief, Jean and Hikigaya, the damage was minimal and no one died.

There is many that was injured but no one was injured. That alone is a miracle especially when one looks at the scale of the explosion.

Azief took all of this sight in. He rubs his forehead a bit.

'A trident of an Olympian god. Poseidon trident. Olympus interfering? Do they want to do something to Earth? But Zeus….and Olympus does not need Earth. Or is that my assumption?' he mutters to himself.
