Chapter 1807: Crushing

Chapter 1807: Crushing

?

Loki also has his own will and his own faith and his own confidence. They all have their own charms and they all have their own flaws.

Raymond appears and the moment he appears, he grounded the chaos, and dispel some of the pressure from the sky.

His eyes is shining bright, yet if on look closely, it has this depth like the chasm of the earth and with every step he takes, the earth seems to welcome him.

Around him, the ground shifted, stones rising and falling as though the island itself was bowing to his presence.

The trees grew taller in his wake, roots spreading deeper into the soil, and the air was thick with the scent of fresh earth.

They are basically like gods.

Loki, now surrounded by these three deities, chuckled to himself, clearly amused but also intrigued.

He stood there, the trickster god among gods, his grin returning as he took in the spectacle.

The Thunder Monarch storm crackled in the air, the Illusion Archmage reality-warping presence shimmered like a mirage, and the Earthshaker immovable weight anchored them all in place.

"Well," Loki said, his voice full of mischief, "this just got interesting."

They look at each other.

Their gaze itself seems to have magic. Their presence is like some kind of power that repel each other.

None of them say anything. It is almost like they were competing on who will speak first

There is only silence

Hamad and Hatta is clearly not feeling all at ease right now.

Loki smiles. That smiles that hides a thousand tricks.

Hikigaya seem to be looking at Loki but who knows which direction he gazes behind that cloudy mist that covers his holy face?

Raymond look at Loki, his eyes shows his confidence and there is a sense of stability just by seeing him there, standing like that, like a mountain that could not be moved.

Oreki eyes on the other hand looks like it would shoot lightning bolts.

Killing people with his gaze

And knowing all of these people it is really possible for them to kill people with just their gaze.

The silence continued on. Loki was the first one that break the silence

"All here?"

"Where is Jean?"

Hikigaya was the one that answer.

"he would not come"

"Paulette?"

"Paulette"

Loki nodded.

"And why did you all come?"

"The key"

"The key?"

"Use it" Loki thinks for a moment and then he nodded.

"Did Azief tell you something"

Oreki answer this time

"he just reminded us."

Loki did not ask any question for a few second. Loki is thinking. When did Azief contact all of these people?

Was it when he kicks him? Loki believe that would be the perfect time. When Loki kicks toward Azief, he might already judge that he could do what he wanted against him.

So, in that moment when he was focusing on the battle, while crafting that simulation, he also sent a telepathic connection to these four?

If Loki wanted an accurate answer he could ask Oreki, Hikigaya and Raymond who is here right

now

But he clearly would not do that.

Raymond sighed

"The Untainted Land..... is it that severe?" Loki ask. Raymond frowned and nodded. And then he sighed.

"We all know that there is chaos brewing in the Untainted Land. Other people could not see what is happening inside the Untainted Land"

Loki nodded at this. Even him, with all of his power could not see what is happening inside the Untainted Land unless he goes inside that place.

However, he never had time to go inside because he has other things to do.

If he uses some tricks., he could see what is happening inside the Untainted Land but even if he could see it what does it matter to him

After all, in the beginning, Untainted Land is not in his plans. It is only just recently he modified his plan and now he is very interested in the Untainted Land.

Loki keep listening to Raymond

But as the creator of laws and rules of the Untainted Land we could see the hidden intrigue and scheme and the chaos"

Loki believe this refers to the emerging kingdoms, empires and factions inside the Untainted

Land.

Sighing, Raymond continues

"We expected chaos. We expected rising and falling of the trend in the Untainted Land. We didn't expect it to go this far"

"You know there is an attempt to close the gate between two worlds?" Hamad ask.

Raymond nodded

"Then, why didn't you tell the world powers? Tell all of us. We could do something"

"It was a suspicion. They did hide it very well. When they did do it, we were also taken aback. But we could not go inside"

"Huh?"

This time it is Hamad and Hatta turns to get surprised. Even Loki feels a little but surprised.

"You could not go inside?"

"Why?"

"There is some things we did not tell the world. We believe that the world should not know about certain things to prevent them from panicking and to keep the peace"

"What happen?"

"In the beginning, we all think that we should have equal access to the Untainted Land. But then we thought about what will happen if we have a weaker will"

"Jean performed a bit of Time Space magic that he always did and he told us that the Untainted Land could benefit the world power immensely. As you all could see, the benefit is

none other than people"

At this everyone nodded Raymond continues his words

"Powerful people is forged inside that place full of competition. Because they lack energy

unlike our side of the world, only the best of the bets could come out from that Land. Hence, the quality of their power is very much different from us. It is more compact and some even have some special qualities to their energy" Loki nodded at this.

Hamad and Hatta also acknowledge this. All of those people coming out from the gate are all

talented people.

They not only competitive but they also have certain grit about them that usually only

appears at people who live during the early years of the Fall.

In the current generation, the difference is not that high. because there is still many people that live during the time of the Fall.

But after a few hundred years, people who come from the Untainted Land would undoubtedly

shows their edge.

"So?"

"Jean asked if we could resist the temptation. All of us are leading figures of world powers.

Favouritism would bound to happen"

"I would favour the World Government, Jean would favour the Republic, Oreki and Hikigaya would favour the Japan Empire"

"This would create friction among us. What if then I shake the Earth, Hikigaya mess up with

the Moon and Sun, Oreki brings thunder and lightning, what if Jean mess up the Time and

Space?" "What if then this conflict extended outside of that land and bring about a war between world

powers?"

Heainrg this Hamad and Hatta cold understand.

War was waged something for stupid reason. What if one of these powerful beings uses the back door as a privilege.

Not only would it attract the ire of the other beings that build the land, it would also attract

the anger of the other world powers.

And they themselves seem to know that they could not entirely be impartial "But there is someone who could be impartial" Loki suddenly said and Raymond nodded

"Death Monarch is the only one that could be impartial. Because he did not covet these people. To him, they might have more power, more grit, and more advantages than people who were born outside of the Untainted Land, but it is still just an ant. A bigger ant. But still an ant. It could not touch the heavens above. They could only look at it" Loki sighed as he finally could understand what these people do.

"So, you basically handed the power to enter the Untainted Land toward Death Monarch"

"He created the key. The key that only he could bring up. It has his energy signature. He sent a

message to us. To contain the army that is on the other side"

Loki frowned.

"What is happening in the Land?"

"They want to attack this world"

"Surely, they must have known that would be futile. Not only they did not have as many Disk

Formation as us, they did not even have a Divine Comprehension leveler. And we still have

Death Monarch"

"They have time. And unlike before, they close the Gate. So, from now their talents would stay

in their world. In a few more decades, they could slowly infiltrate our world"

Loki notices something.

"You mean they are not attacking now?"

From the way that Raymond been saying it, it almost seems like there is already an army

waiting on the gate between the two world, ready to invade.

Raymond nodded

"Still, we have to crush this force before they could grow up"

"Why so impatient?"

Loki ask.

He also are in the opinion that this force should be crushed.

But he just wanted to know why these beings wanted to do it at this point in time.

Clearly, none of these beings is that worried that this force would become bigger.

Even if they became bigger, even if they waited for another decade, it would not like change

anything.

This force would still be crushed and they might even be crushed harder because the people of

this world would also improve and not be stagnant.
