Lord Shadow

Chapter 724: Giving up (1)



The outside is the scene of heaven and Earth clashing wills with each other. 

Inside the dome however, the symbol that was etched into the beast skin exploded and an image appears in each of the six great leaders mind.

All of the projection they had around them was dissipated like a castle of sand collided with the wave of the ocean

It felt like they were being transported into some kind of separate dimension. They felt like they were hurled into a fog and then they fall down onto a tall mountain surrounded by clouds.

And in their mind, they all see the same image.

It was the face of Death Monarch. And he is sitting on his back throne and looking at them with his cold eyes, looking at them with disdain with a curved smile. 

Then they realized something. That there were small and Death Monarch was big.

Too big. It was like he is the only being in the vast universe. 

And they felt infinitely small. Hirate was the one that try to resist this oppression of power the most. Since his Psionic Force is still protecting him, he could at least try to resist. 

But one gaze from Azief destroy all of his resistance.

It felt like Death Monarch Azief was the source of all powers in the Universe. 

They all know that this is only in their minds and that this image is probably the Mind Projection generated by the two symbols in his letter.

But even if they knew, it in their mind, they could not believe it in their hearts. It felt to real 

Azief cold eyes look toward them like he is looking at an insect that buzz around him. 

Occasionally, in that cold eyes, there would be flash of loneliness that could draw a person into that eye. 

But then a flashes of red appears and one could feel his anger and then two words come out from his mouth. This is the answer that he gave to all six of them

This is the answer he gave to the six great power in summoning him to the World Court

‘Make me!’ he said. To send these two words, he had wrecked the protection of the World Government.

He wanted to how them his power. And he wanted to remind them who they are facing.

He said those two words with a determination that could not be broken. And while he did not say it in anger, one could feel the pressure of the Heaven pressing on them.

That signifies his wrath and then when the two words landed on their ears, they were brought back to the dome. They all felt dizzy and then at the same time all of them coughed up blood.

They could feel their entire body felt like they were burning and dizziness takes over.

Their entire body is trembling with pain, physically and mentally. And at the same time, all of their Disk cracked and energy leaked out of them

The symbol disappeared and things slowly becoming calmer. The space is no longer locked down.

Outside, the thunder retreated, the lightning disappeared and the wind dissipated like nothing ever happened just a few moments ago. 

The dark clouds separated and the weather become calm once again.

Then to the shock of everyone, the Dome of the Quorum cracked and crumble down. Raymond who notices it from afar, lift his hand and the ground around the dome was elevated slightly to give time for everyone inside the dome to teleport themselves out

The six people inside the dome quickly uses their teleport stone and teleported out from the dome appearing a few miles away from the site, standing on top of a hill which is embedded with a formation

They all looked toward the Dome in the distance and they all sighed as they saw it slowly falls down and then turning into dust that flew with the wind

The six leader is all pale in the face and the officials of the World government that saw the crumbling of the Dome all frowned. 

The six leader just look at the destruction of the dome like they were transfixed by it. 

While they look at the dome, the officials and the tens of thousands of people in the island look toward the sky, fearfully. 

Some of them even counted the clouds to make sure that it is still there. 

They fear that the clouds in the sky would disappeared suddenly and become a cloudless sky. Some look toward the horizon, fearing a group of dark clouds is coming.

They fear a sword would fall down, or a red thunderbolt would strike the island. By now, everyone has guessed who created such chaos. 

‘That person’ is the only one capable of forcing the Supreme Commander to come out personally.

And “that person” is the only one that dares provoke the World Government

The citizens all related this matter to the fact that the Six Great Power had sent him a delegation yesterday.

And they frowned because they could feel that a storm is coming. 

Meanwhile on the hill where the six great power leader had teleported themselves, they al sighed after they regain back their calm. 

Their internal injury and the damage they suffer to their Disk is the most important thing to deal with right now.

Hirate then shakes his head and facing his colleague he then rebukes them

‘What did I tell you? Didn’t I tell you that I wanted to wash my hands off this? Now, my Dome had been turned to dust because of all of you’

Nunurai and Eric sighed. Narleod smirks and Boris frowned.

Why would he act like this? Is he fearful of something?’ Nunurai ask. To him, act of aggression might be a way for him to hide some weakness.

Boris snorted and Hirate just shakes his head. 

‘This just prove you don’t know him. Who would he fear in this world?’

‘Then why?’

‘Because you are forcing him to follow.’

The wind blows around them and their robes sways left and right

‘Is it so bad? It is a compromise for peace. It is not like we wanted to diminish the power of Pandemonium. It is not even possible when he is on that throne. Why acted so radically?’

‘To your eyes, it did not diminish the power of Pandemonium. But to “that person” eyes, it might not be like that. He forges the reputation of being the strongest in the world. He is the predator and not the other way around. If he follows your suggestion, he is a lion who bows his head to a flock of sheep. While Pandemonium would not lose any power and he would not lose any power, how could they be overbearing if even their leader had to bow down their heads. And when does he ever need a reason to do something in this world?’

‘Is that such a big deal that he wanted to kill us all?’ Nunurai asked as he spit golden blood from his mouth. 

His entire organ is still boiling. If not for the fact that he had some lifesaving measure, his injury would be more severe.

Boris then laughed before he coughed up a few lump of blood to the ground.

‘Kill us? If he really wanted to kill us, do you think any of us would be standing here still speaking? He only uses two words to render us all one foot into the grave. Are you trying to make a joke, Nunurai? This is a warning and a reminder for him. Hahaha’ he laughed and then shakes his head

‘I am out’ he said and Hirate nodded his head. Then Hirate said

‘Me too’

Eric then said

‘Then what about the matter of him killing all of those people? What about the peace of the world? If the Law is not upheld, there would be chaos’

Narleod who did not anything then smiles and he laughed. He laughs so hard that it unnerves some people

‘What is so funny? Why are you laughing?’ Eric ask.

‘Hah, I thought this was a good opportunity to test that person. Who knows it backfire? Haish. I should have expected it to be honest. I guess this is not enough.’

Then he laughs again 

‘This is too high of a price to pay for offending him. I guess I am out too’
