Lord Shadow

Chapter 1132 - The Message I

Even if the whole world condemns him, they would not dare wage war against Pandemonium.

Of course, individuals that wanted to exact revenge would still come and probably try to assassinate him.

But unless they are of Divine Comprehension level, such assassination attempt would be nothing in his eyes.

He then sighed and takes a deep breath

And inhale and exhale. His mind is too cluttered.

In a way, it is good. It has only been five days. He is still quite depressed with what happen with Sofia.

He did not know where she is.

But he had her phone number.

The communication device did not yet have any name. But it looks like a phone, it acts like a phone, so Azief started calling it a phone.

Of course it did not have the same keypad like the smartphone before the Fall, but it had all the characteristic of a phone.

And who would dare to correct him?

'Sasha is taking her time' he thought to himself.

Even through his tone sound like he is displeased, that is not his feeling at al. After all he knew how hardworking she is the past couple of days.

And he knows that she is preparing some report about what happens with one of the asset of the Shadow Guards.

She wanted to explain it to him.

Azief did not like what she had done. But he would reserve her judgement until all facts are laid out to him.

Azief did not know that Sasha sought and use the service of the Broker.

He did not even know that there is division that is akin of Witness Protection Service.

Now the Broker is dead and if he were to believe the report it was Loki.

Loki just right after the Multiversal Convergence ended and went to Pandemonium, and engage in a battle with the Broker and kill him

He was also surprised to know that the Broker actually marries one of the Three Demoness. And that they had a baby together.

Loki of course would not kill the baby but Azief suspected that after this the relationship between Loki and Riana would not be the same as before.

Of course, he himself did not know whether Rina loyalty is high enough that she could ignore that Loki kills her husband but that is not his problem to worry about.

This time Sasha did not hide anything from him and told him everything that she knew about the matter.

He was surprised to know that there were so many things that he does not know in Pandemonium.

Sasha was not kidding when she said she is going to expand the Shadow Guards

He was surprised to know that the Broker, one of the founder of the Crime Alliance is actually sheltered by his people

Some people might raise the banner of justice to get the support of the people. But when Azief started his crusade against the crime families and criminals, he did not do it to gain popular support.

He could forgive crimes that did not harm people lives. But those that do, and do it knowingly, Azief had no mercy to them.

No one knows why he is so tough and so merciless against criminal but no one dares to ask. And it is not like Death Monarch is a sharing person.

The Crime Alliance was born because of the desperation of the crime families who could not live under the same sky as Death Monarch

If not for the appearance of Void who could neutralize all powers, energies and laws of the world, the Crime Alliance would have long been eradicated.

And there is also the fact that Azief himself sometimes rarely on Earth. If one counted the days where he truly reigns in pandemonium, one would find that his reigning days are very short.

Azief did not like to explain why he was so adamant on his stance against these hardened criminals.

And he had never thought that Sasha would use the service of the Broker. he knows Sasha is not as clean as her robes.

She might wear white robe, shining like the moonlight but Sasha is a woman that lives in darkness and she might not always see eye toe eye with him on certain matters.

Azief wanted to wait for her to explain.

Sasha is one of his most trusted person and also one of the most loyal.

Azief knows this with certainty because faith energy, that illusory energy also comes from her.

She has faith in him and in her faith lies her loyalty. He then looks again at the phone.

'Tch' he clicked his tongue. Jut right then he was thinking about Sasha and yet, once again, his mind wander to Sofia.

He could call her right now. But…Haish…he sighed

'I do not have the luxury of time right now.' He then became determined.

Of course, he had prepared things and measures for the people that is related to him if anything were to happen to him.

But Azief did not intend to go to the Seresian world to die.

He would come back.

And he wanted to make something clear to Sofia. And he hesitated whether to let her know now or to tell her later.

'I will come back' he thought to himself. He had this confidence that whatever he would find or encounter in the Seresian world, he would come back to Earth Prime

So, he calls the number. But there is only the sound of static. So, the words he wanted to said remain unsaid.

'I want you to know wherever I am, whatever I am doing, if you are ever in need, I would be there' that is what he wanted to say to her.

He just sighed.

There is only silence in the office.

The clouds on the outside of the window moves gently pushed by the wind, the sky is blue and the clouds is white, looking at it, one mind just become blank and that is what Azief did

He just needed to stop thinking for a while and just blank out for a few minutes.

Then a few minutes later Sasha arrived. She knocks the door and she was immediately let in

She stands in front of the desk. Azief is still looking at the clouds and he sighed the moment he felt that Sasha is there

Sasha frowned.

Then he turns his chair to look at her. Sasha looks at him and then she looks down.

'I need an explanation' he said. Sasha only nodded and began to talk.

This time, Azief did not engage in any idle talks.

When the news that Sasha was called by Death Monarch, many political entities of the world was paying attention to this.

They were all thinking what will Death Monarch tells Sasha. Some people knows that Sasha had shelter the broker.

Some people only knows partial information that Sasha had harbored a dangerous criminal.

As no one is willing to spread this story too much fearing Pandemonium harsh reaction, other than the world powers, most of the others did not have too much detail of the matter

To some others, the summoning of Sasha is a common occurrence.

If there is an official in pandemonium that is summoned frequently by Death Monarch, it would be Sasha so to some people there is nothing weird about it and they did not

Right now in the office, Azief had heard her explanation. Then he began talking about his own plan.

Sasha who is still standing in front of the table, nods every time Death Monarch gives her an order.

This is probably the only time that Death Monarch has given her so much order in one day

Some orders that he gives her is very weird. Others are something that is under her expectation but there are just some orders that she could not just understand

They also talk about the matter of the successor. Death Monarch answer to her was quite surprising and she did not know how to interprets it.

It even seems a little bit irresponsible. But there is a warning in that order.

Sasha chose not to think too much about it.

Since it is Death Monarch decision and Pandemonium is the land that he had opened up, she could not really defy any of the orders

Then she and Death Monarch have a heart to heart talk about her relationship with the Broker. It is nothing like the world expected.

Some people expected that when Death Monarch found out that his most trusted subordinate had been cooperating with one of the founders of the Crime Alliance, he would lose his shit and might even exterminate Sasha like she was a bug

What they could not have expected was that Death Monarch and Sasha seems to have some civilized conversation about all of it.

What people doesn't seem to understand was that Sasha is someone that Azief had been working with for almost a decade.

For Sasha to lose his trust, she needs to do something that truly touched his bottom line.

But the thing about Sasha is that she knew his bottom line and she is wise enough not to cross that line.

And the trust that they built with each other is not so easily broken.

'And that is all of it' Sasha said.
