Lord Shadow

Chapter 720: Looking up at the sky (2)



If they were captured, these people could be taken to the Undersea Prison or the Sky Prison in the Moon to serve as labor for the many projects undertaken by the Great Powers

This farce would calm the people and make them confident of the law and order of the great powers. 

While all of these people thinking positively of the suggestion that Boris had made, only Hirate frown. In his mind, he thought to himself

‘These people clearly don’t know Death Monarch’ he only sighed and then knowing he could not fight the general tide he nodded and said

‘Fine. We will send envoys. I will sign the letter but I’m not going to supply an envoy. You decide among yourself who will send an envoy. I am washing my hand off from this’

Some of them frowned but the fact that they have managed to make Hirate concede is enough for them. 

After another hour of talking about it, five of the World Power decided to send five envoys together forming a delegation to Pandemonium. The meeting was concluded and the envoy was sent to Pandemonium that evening.

At the same time this was happening in the Island of Peace a lot of other things was happening all over the world that will affect the future

Unknown to many people, Azief and the Golden Speedster had planned to seek the Oracle on the fifth day of his return.

The only one who knows this is Death Monarch, the Golden Speedster and the Oracle inside the Stonehenge.

The second day is slowly passing by. There is three more days before the fateful day that would change the future.

Loki in his ship of bones is preparing, the Oracle is waiting and in some dark corners of the world, a person is smiling moving his chess pieces.

That evening the delegation from the World Powers arrived at Pandemonium shocking the world.

This time, the responses of the other Six Power is swift. Everyone could guess why they came and what they wanted to say to Death Monarch.

Everyone was waiting for the conclusion of this matter. 

The Central Government allowed them to enter the Centre Palace but Death Monarch was not there, instead he was spending some time inside that two story house with the white picket fence.

If one passed by that house, they could hear the laughter of happiness from a pair of lovers. No one knows but Azief had decided to spend the five days he had with Sofia.

For five days he tries to forget all that he had saw. 

But his peace was disturbed by the delegation as the officials of the court relay to him the words that the world powers had send to him.

He did not meet with the envoys but he understood the plan of the World Powers. Then he wrote a letter on a beast skin, put it inside a special envelope and send it to the delegation.

That evening, the delegation came and a few hours after they came, as evening turns to sunset, they got a letter from Death Monarch with the instruction to open the letter in front of their leaders.

Inside that letter is his answer. There was no feasting or some otherwise political play like before.

Now, that person is in Pandemonium so the Central Government, The Three Army and all the other forces in the court of Pandemonium did not dare play any games.

The King has returned and all they could do is chant All Hail the King

Night came and as the envoys return to the Island of Peace to relay the letter to the world leaders, an unexpected guest arrived in front of the two story house.

That day, with the meeting of the six leader from the Six Great Power it became an impetus for some event to begin playing itself out.

That night as Azief was standing on the yard, with Sofia leaning on his chest looking at the stars, two people had managed to come into Pandemonium undetected.

If this two people was not someone that he had known Azief would have kill them simply for trying to come near the white picket fence of the house.

But the two had an offer and it is an offer he likes. That night another thing happens. Night turns to midnight and midnight turns to dawn.

And morning arrived. 

The third day arrived and another news once again shakes the world. 

In the morning, the identity of the two people that came to meet Death Monarch in the dark of night is finally revealed.

The two people is the illusionist Archmage Hikigaya and Thunder Monarch Oreki, the Twin Sages of Japan

These meeting would probably not be construed as something ominous if not for the timing of the meeting.

It gives cause for concerns. Why would these two people of great power meet with Death Monarch right after Death Monarch turns the delegation away with a letter?

What are they planning?

And while the news reported that the three met, the news did not report what they were talking about.

People still remembers that during Death Monarch fight with the Heavens, there are a few people that went out and protected and fight against the Heaven to give Death Monarch a chance of survival and breakthrough.

These people are considered true heroes and heroines of the world. 

Some people even lamented the fact that these people are not in the same faction. If they were in the same team, they would be the greatest protector of Earth against any enemies that would come

Raymond, Hikigaya, Oreki, Katarina and Sofia was there. As for Katarina and Sofia, their participation is expected.

But not the participation of Raymond, Hikigaya and Oreki. 

But maybe because of that, the tension between these people were not as serious as the world would you have believed them to be.

Raymond and Hikigaya might be under the World Government but it is clear that those two very much respected Death Monarch 

The same could be said for Raymond.

So, the fact that two of the top ranking members of World Government met with the ruler of Pandemonium is surely something that shook the world.

The entire world is waiting with bated breath of the next development. 

Giants are moving and they fear they would be trampled under these giant’s foot

Like the impending sign of a storm, in just three days, events happened after one another that threatened the peace of the world.

The White Owl ask in their news

What did the Thunder Monarch and Illusionist Archmage spoke about with Death Monarch? 

Why would they spoke privately with Death Monarch and why would Death Monarch accept their arrival?

Is the Twin Sages thinking of seceding from the World Government like the Seven Warlords of Greece?

What is the words in the letter that he sends to the Great Powers? Will Death Monarch show his face and attend the World Court?

And what plan does “that person” have? 

And like always, the people of the world look at the sky and wish that there is no storm. But dark clouds are gathering and the sound of thunder rumbling could be heard.

Something is about to happen and everyone is preparing for it. Time is running out. 

Chess pieces are being moved and until the pieces are put down who knows who are attacking and who is defending? Who knows who would win and who would lose until the last moment?

Three days remain until Death Monarch meet the Oracle
