Chapter 1732: Pandemonium Concern

?

"I did some experiment with some herbs. The Apothecary blows up and the fumes of that concoction enters my body"

She paused for a second and then added

"It is not all bad. It gives me a glimpse of my future path and it also helps me create my Disk. That mistake was able to let me reflect and that is gain enough"

She chuckles but Sofia is not in the mood to laugh

Sina then added

"Though, I would have some difficulty in breathing every now and then. And my energy sometimes become disordered"

"Other than that, I am completely fine" Hearing this Sofia could only sigh.

She knows all about Sina obsession with creating pills.

Clearly Sina wanted to create some powerful pill. Sina might be the one with the least guard against her secret.

Of course, this is around her circle of friends. To the world, not many knows how Sina get on board Azief ship and become one of his closest friends.

The one that knows is mostly people on the top of the world powers like Hirate and Jean.

this did not mean that she did not have any secrets.

She has her secrets.

Sofia remember one instance

Sofia once asked her about what she is trying to create especially when Sian still crafting and concocting medicine and pills even after she got her vengeance.

She never told her. Every time she ask that question, Sina would only smiles without offering any answer.

After a while, Sofia knows not to ask that question again.

Now, looking at her, even though Sina looks mature, there is still a part of her that makes other people worried. Sofia sighs and then shakes her head

"You should tone it down a little" Sina only laughs at this.

Sofia then goes to the window. Near the window there is a small portable radio. She turns it on, and song from the 2000s plays

[The Calling - Wherever You Will Go]

She smiles a little.

"I didn't know they still have records of old songs"

"This music station just got established around a year ago. As for the songs, it is said some of them goes to a different parallel universe that is quite the same as our Earth before the Fall and basically bought all the music they could find"

Thinking about this Sofia could not help but chuckles a bit.

"Whoever sell that music playlist to those people got a bit of luck that day"

"I heard that they buy it using gold. To that world, gold still has some values. To us, we could simply waves our hand and create gold out of the minerals of the world.

"Huh. Wouldn't they get fined by the World Security Time Patrol?"

"Thye got permission from the World Government and there were all these time measures taken on them when they go to that world so that they would not create an interdimensional accident"

Hearing this Sina nodded

"Since they could not stop it, the World Security Council simply have to regulate it"

At this Sofia nodded.

Even though most breaches were closed during the Multiversal Convergence, from the moment someone cross to a different parallel universe and other dimension from Earth, it has already opened the Pandora box.

The barrier of reality was temporarily strengthen by the Orvanians when they bombed it with their reality altering bombs.

But after that, there is still some people that still goes to other dimension and other parallel universes

These people are called Interdimensional Smuggler.

As the name has aptly described these are people that smuggle things from another dimension among other places.

Most of the culture before the Fall has been eradicated.

Music's, stories, movies, tv series, normal modern appliances that rarely now has a place in this new world could still be found in other parallel Earths

Before, even though the world power has banned travel to other dimensions, there is some exception to this rule like Wil who could simply pierce through the barriers between world easily and some other people

But after the Multiversal Convergence, most of these travels, especially by people like Will would be notified first.

Will is one of the members of the Pandemonium and even though he is rarely in Pandemonium and rarely interferes in the matter of Pandemonium everyone knows that his position in the heart of Death Monarch is quite high

And since that is the case, he has some leeway by going out first before reporting it to the World Security Council

And after the Multiversal Convergence, there is protocol to these things. When someone break through to the barrier between worlds, a cleanup crew would come after to patch these

breaches.

But just because the government banned it, does not mean that everyone would follow it.

There is many such illegal travel toward other worlds, parallel earths and other dimension. And that is also the reason why there is so many unregulated items that appears in the world that could become a problem

Since the world power could not stop it, so they regulate it.

At least now even though the corrosion of the world barriers is still there it could be managed

openly.

There is another silence between these two friends. Sina is only smiling. Sofia smirks

For a moment they enjoy this silence.

Sofai was the one that broke the situation

"It doesn't seem that you came here to just talk about these things" Sina nodded.

Sina look around and then she approached the window and look outside. She could see the vast grassland and see the many animals and monsters and beast on the ground and the sky

It is a different world with a different vitality. The kind of world that one would think of when they think of a fantasy world.

The sky seems brighter, the colors seems livelier and everything is full of energy. Like the

world was reborn anew.

Like a world that has just come out of existence and everything is new and novel. What Azief

had done changes the trajectory of humanity itself.

"Are you joining the World Government?" she suddenly ask

Sofia smiles bitterly

"This time it is not a social call, after all. You came here as one of the ministers of

Pandemonium"

Sina nodded.

"You are in World Government territory. You hanging out with Hirate. And now you are here,

hunting for them. I....am concerned"

Then she added

"It is not easy crossing the Sea of Fire and I am quite surprised that you are here."

There is silence between them again. Only this time the silence is more tense. Sofia could

guess the hidden meaning of Sina concern

Even though Sofia is not a high-ranking member of Pandemonium pollical scene, she knew

many things. Secret things

Dangerous things.

And Sina wanted to make sure that she would not speak of it. And Sofia understand Sian

concern.

After all, if she joins the World government, she would interact with one of the best mind readers in the world

It is not easy to hide something from someone who could read your mind.

There are methods of shielding your mind but Hirate is not some two-bit magician.

He is acknowledged by many as the strongest mind reader in the world.

And strongest here is not referring to his physical strength but to his ability to mess with your

mind

And one of his most famous method of using this ability of his is to steal information from people mind without them ever noticing it.

Sofia knows that Hirate method is not limited to just reading minds. He could alter people memories, seal memories, and erase it.

And that is just a few things that he could with people mind

A person mind is sometimes the only thing that made them different from unthinking beings.

If that could be altered and played around with, then you could be reduced to even worse than

animals.

It is one of the most terrifying abilities there is. And while the media did not talk much about

it, after the Fall, those who have this ability to mess with people mind do many....

unspeakable things with it.,

Turning people to mindless slave is just one of its obscene applications of this ability.

Some treated people like a doll on a string, to change the perception of pain and pleasure,

playing with their memories and their lives.

There is many cases where some deranged individuals uses this ability to do evil.

Sofia once read a case about a mind reader who alters the memories of a woman to think that

her children is monsters.

The woman cut her teenage children into pieces and when that deed is done, these deranged individuals release the memories and the woman was so distraught that she died of

heartbreak.

And this is only one of such deed and there were even more disgusting and obscene thing that

had happened because of this ability to manipulate people's mind

Most of them are now either imprisoned or killed.

This only happens after the formation of the world powers.

With stable powers, rules and laws could be enforced and the approval of the people is

paramount hence rules and laws needs to be enforced.

Azief action of establishing the world powers might be seen to some people as a method of

control but probably that was the point

To leash these beasts that is going out of control.
