Chapter 930: The right thing to do (3)

Azief did not say anything as he seems to take his time. He looks in front of him, looking at the sea and the clouds in the sky.

He did not know if he could return back after his trip to Seresian world. There is always a possibility that he would die there.

Most of the journey he had taken, had always have an element of doom. 

Loki might believe that he would always be safe until the End, but Azief, as the one who is the one living his life, there is always a chance he could die in any of his journey.

But he had still gone to the jaws of death and each time he come out, once again surviving from some life and death tribulation, he would always become stronger because of it

So, he smiles as he looks at the sea and the sky and enjoys his time. He did not have much time, but that did not mean he could not enjoy the little time he have

'Enjoy the little things' he mutters. That was his motto when the Fall first happen. He seems to forget that as years had passed.

The enjoying part. And he smirks at himself. 

'There is never a certainty. Only possibilities' he reminded himself.

Of course, he had seen the future where he become some kind of a Destroyer that kills and destroy everything. 

If it is anybody else, they would at least have the thought that they would not die until that moment in the future came.

But that is the thing about time. 

Azief knows some of the intricacies of trying to fuck with time. 

And one of the intricacies was that once you saw it, it changes. This is the reason why not many people wanted to see their own future.

This is also one of the reason why Speedster don't speed their way on into Time to see their future.

Because the act of seeing it, changes it. Before you see it, it did not change. After you see it, it changes. 

Because now you know. And every action that you do afterward, would surely be guided by what you see even unconsciously.

And then there is another possibility which is by seeing a certain future, you sealed that future into reality

In other words, it could also mean that by seeing the future, you have locked that future in place. There is always this risk with playing with Time

It is a lot like the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, observer effect mixed with a little Schrodinger cat theorem.

Azief could not be sure that if he goes to the Seresian world, he would not die. 

If he blindly believes that visions of the future, that probability of the future where he would live until that time in the future, he might be reckless and by doing so changes his own fate and instead of being the Destroyer in that vision, he might be dead before that time

At least he had confirmed one of Loki claims about him. He would become the Destroyer of Worlds.

Then he looks at Hirate and said

'I would be going to the Seresian world in a week. Help Loki. Look after him. Protect him. Shield him'

'Since you wanted to cover it up, then cover it up flawlessly. And since you said you would try to protect Loki, then protect him. If something happens to him because of this, I know I could not forgive myself. But before I would blame myself, I would blame you first.' Before Hirate could say anything, Azief cut him off and said

'Sometimes I could be reasonable. Sometimes I would not be. This is that rare moment where I am being reasonable. If you want to convince me with reason, then show a bigger fist'

'That is all I have to say. It would be wise for you to remember it' Hirate sighed and then he nodded

'I understand. Don't worry about Loki. I would protect him from the shadows if he is truly in a pinch. But as you know, Loki is not an easy man to find. I don't think he would do this if he did not have his plan'

Hirate waited Azief response and Azief just nodded

'Knowing him, he has hundreds of ways. Still…' and he lets his words hang. Hirate nodded

'Got it'

Azief considered that about Loki. 

Of course he knew how Loki operates. He probably has prepared everything that even if he takes the blame, he would not be impacted that negatively. 

People might curse him and call him many names and there might be people that would be hunting him but knowing Loki, as long as these people could not harm him, what does he cares even if the whole world condemns him.

The only thing that is wrong about all this was that Loki did not even deserve all of these curses and hatred. 

This is the only thing he could do now. Loki must have his reason. But that kid, never wanted to hear his reason.

Loki to him would always be a kid

He could now only participate in the lie because the alternative would not be pretty

He might say to Hirate to convince him with a bigger fist, but truth be told, Azief was already convinced by Hirate about the matter of the truth

He protested against Loki way by intentionally making Pandemonium his backer because this is the right thing. 

And Loki must have his own reason. It is quite hard trying to divine the thought of a person who knows the future.

Loki action could never be understood by people who don't understand his true origin. 

But Azief understood it. And that is why he tolerates Loki action. And why he does not blow the lid on this lie.

Because Loki is clearly doing this to achieve something. 

As for his support to Loki, while he could take some of the criticism away, Azief could not tell the whole truth to the world.

Because he knows what Hirate and Loki was trying to do. Azief was not adamant on revealing the truth. But he was not intending to hide the truth either.

That was never his style. 

He did it and he did not mind owning up to it. But after hearing Hirate reason, this truth if revealed…...does it have any benefits at all? Does it help people? Does it make everything alright?

Someday…...someday, this truth would come out. Azief don't know when. But it will. But, at least that truth should not come out right now.

Right now would probably the worst time for this particular truth to come out. He once again looks at Hirate and he sighed

Hirate look at him with a weird expression. Death Monarch seems to be staring his face too intently.

'Is there something on my face?'

Azief smiles and said

'You are not as detestable as I thought you were' Azief said. 

The words were not pretty, but Hirate could understand that Death Monarch was praising him and he laughed as he said

'And you were not as unreasonable as I thought' Azief did not smile but if one looks closely there is a slight smirk on his face before he schools back his expression to his neutral expression

Then he said

'I guess people change'

Hirate nodded

'I guess they do'

Azief takes a deep breath as he turns his body. As he turns back Azief said

'Do not disappoint my trust' Then taking a step, the entire space and time around the area of the balcony suddenly distorted.

It then spirals like the laws of Time and Space were being manipulated before breaking as Azief disappeared from sight

The pressure that Hirate had been feeling since the moment Death Monarch was on the balcony dissipated like it was an illusion

The moment Death Monarch disappears, the space and time around the area of the balcony that was affected quickly went back to normal
